Did you agree? Pullman looked at the silver-haired girl in disbelief. He thought there was little hope this time, but surprisingly, the sage teacher seemed to have figured something out and agreed.
While he was surprised, a burst of surprise also arose in his heart. If it weren't for his much calmer personality after becoming a leader, Pullman would have almost stood up and shouted, venting his excitement for once.
After turning his mind around, he began to think about how to introduce this girl to other like-minded friends, who are now the top executives and heads of various departments of Clancia. Although he is the supreme leader of Clancia, in fact
There was no airs in front of the companions in the past. And the atmosphere among the current top-level companions is relatively relaxed, unlike those countries that have been established for a long time, which are very rigid and have constant conflicts.
Should we hold a grand ceremony, or should we let everyone get to know each other in private first and be mentally prepared?
He was a little worried that the teacher would be looked down upon by others because of his too young appearance, which was not what he wanted to see.
It's better to hold a grand ceremony, which will appear more legitimate, otherwise it will be like the Eastern proverb Tolan said, the white dragon fish wears clothes, and it will be troublesome.
Seemingly sensing Pullman's thoughts, Lorraine Hill spoke out first.
"There is no need to introduce me to others for the time being. Although I have agreed to your invitation, I still have other things to deal with at the moment. I estimate that I will not stay in Crancia permanently until early next year."
"Okay." Pullman nodded and then asked again.
"Then how about I arrange a place for the teacher to live in the palace, so that communication in the future will be much more convenient. Currently, many officials of Crancia also live in the palace, which will make it easier to protect him."
The palace of Cranthia occupies a huge area. In Solander, a city with over a million people, the palace built on the mountain occupies one-ninth of the area. Its location is in the center of Solander, and it can be viewed from a high position.
Overlooking the buildings across the city.
Regarding this point, Lorraine Hill did not refuse, and simply nodded in agreement. It is indeed not good to stay in a hotel all the time.
After the conversation, it was already noon, Pullman asked Palinsha to bring lunch, and then asked her to bring over the map of the palace.
"Teacher, what kind of environment do you want to live in? The royal family of Xifeng used to be very luxurious. They built palaces with various environmental styles in the palace, including small lakes, fields, forests, observation towers, high towers, etc.
"
"It's better to find me a quieter place." The girl shook her head slightly. Her needs were not great, but it would be bad if it was too empty.
"Then here."
He pointed out one of the locations, which was on the southwest side of the palace, in the woods behind a hill. It was at the edge of the palace, with not many people, and the scenery was excellent. Sitting on the slope of the light yellow lawn, you could overlook most of the city.
"Um."
After seeing Lorraine Hill agree, Pullman asked Palinsha to lead the way and help arrange the facilities.
"Can you tell Palinsha your identity? It will be much more convenient. She has a very strict tone and will not reveal it casually."
"Okay." It doesn't matter if just one more person knows.
Pullman called Palinsha outside and gave instructions in her ear. The secretary-general's eyes widened slightly and he looked at the girl in front of him in disbelief. After a long time, he calmed down.
"I understand, Lord Pullman, and Lord Sage Lorraine Hill." She bent down and bowed deeply. When she raised her head, her eyes were full of eagerness and admiration, which was completely different from before.
It's not good. Seeing this expression, the girl murmured in her heart. She originally thought that this maid lady was a cool, capable and calm person, but she didn't expect that she would change so quickly.
"Please come with me."
She stretched out her hand to guide Lorraine Hill in front, keeping her back straight along the way, as if she wanted to express herself better.
After passing through long corridors and palaces, passing various busy departments, and passing checkpoints guarded by guards, the two of them turned outside the palace.
The lawn here is well taken care of. There are neatly trimmed shrubs on both sides of the white stone road. Climb up the low steps. In front of you is a small gatehouse with a guard standing guard on each side.
"Hello, Lady Palinsha." When the two guards saw him, they bowed their heads first and saluted, then raised their heads to look at them.
Palinsha is the secretary-general of the palace. She often moves around, delivering documents and arranging matters, so most of the guards here know each other.
The maid nodded and asked the two to open the locked door.
The thick copper lock turned, the light golden door slowly opened, and a beautiful courtyard appeared in front of the two of them. There were not many gorgeous buildings here, only simple black iron guardrails outlined in a vine pattern, surrounding a few apple trees.
The tree winds upward along the white stone road and reaches a small hillside. There is a small house here, and next to the house is a large tree with lush branches.
The crown of the big tree covers a small part of the roof, shrouding it in the shade, making it look somewhat cool in the hot summer. The house next to it is overall a light blue, the kind that looks like cotton candy.
Light blue. (There is a reference picture here, but the golden decoration in the picture is not here)
The corners of the house are decorated in white, like simple reliefs, outlining flowers, stars, trees, etc.
"This is the Red Pillar Palace, where Princess Lanisha lived a hundred years ago. Because she was frail and sick since she was a child, the king and queen loved her very much and built the palace here. The air here is also very good."
Palinsha took Lorraine Hill into the shade of the tree, took out the key and inserted it into the door lock. With a slight turn, she pushed open the white door and walked into this warm and beautiful cabin.
"Princess Ranisha was the youngest princess at the time and had always been loved by her brothers and sisters. Later, the king died and her two brothers fought for the throne. She came to mediate and finally stopped the bloody internal fighting. This is also why her two brothers fought for the throne.
, in the West Wind Kingdom, which has always valued family, Lanissa’s reputation is very good, even though she only lived 19 years old.”
"Since the death of the princess, this place has been vacant. Only occasionally someone comes to clean it. I hope the sage doesn't mind." Palinsha told the origin of this palace.
Lorraine Hill is not superstitious, and she doesn't care about it. The scenery and tranquility here are quite in line with her preferences.
"What did Palinsha do before?"
Looking at this decent and knowledgeable maid, Lorraine Hill felt that she did not come from an ordinary family. In the early years of Xifeng, those who could receive a good education were basically from noble families.
"I am the daughter of the previous King of West Wind."
"In other words, is Palinsha a former princess?" Lorraine Hill felt a little surprised.
"Yes, but that kind of life and identity can't be said to be particularly good." The maid secretary didn't seem to recognize her past identity too much.
"Although the princess of the West Wind lives a carefree life, she actually doesn't have much freedom. She has to stay elegant at all times, learn music and poetry, be able to entertain guests, and then follow the arrangements of her father or eldest brother to marry someone.
The stranger becomes his wife and the bond of family ties."
"Some princesses may like this kind of stability, but for me, it's really depressing. I can only say that no matter how wonderful things are, once you are forced to accept them, you won't be able to like them."
"Fortunately, the era of West Wind is over now, and I can escape from that kind of life."
"Wouldn't Palinsha be hateful?"
Even though he knew the personal reason, Lorraine Hill still asked with some worry. It can be said that the reason why West Wind ended was largely because she changed the trajectory of her destiny.
"Perhaps I am naturally cold and solitary. I don't have much contact with the people around me, so I don't have many feelings. Moreover, even without the Sage and Cranthia, the decline of the West Wind will be a matter of time. Just because I am in the palace, it is even more
I know the thoughts of those big shots, so I have no hope."
"You don't have to blame yourself for this. Kingdom changes are like this, and killings are inevitable. Even my father ascended to the throne after a bloody struggle between brothers, not to mention the change of country."
"Although my life today is not as good as in the past, I can also choose more freely. This kind of life makes me happier."
"To this day, even I feel a little proud to be a member of Crancia, watching the whole country get better and better."
