Speaking of which, Henrietta and Gu have not seen each other for nearly two years. Although I made a promise to her two years ago that I would visit again in a while. But because there were so many things, I completely forgot about them.
It sounds like I feel a little sorry for her. But Gu is such a busy person, busy with domestic affairs, busy with diplomacy, busy with military affairs, and busy looking for Youxi. I'm so busy, how can I have time to play with a little girl who doesn't understand anything?
So the matter was shelved. Until this day, maybe because I was tired of this little girl's willfulness. At the same time, they were frightened by the Albigensian rebels, and the nobles of Toristin couldn't stand it anymore. As soon as they put it all together, they decided to marry off their princess. Get a new, more capable ruler. For example, the outstanding performance of Gu is within easy reach.
And Henrietta didn¡¯t know what kind of psychology she had, so she didn¡¯t express any objection.
But it¡¯s definitely not because I like being alone.
This was confirmed after we met again. Although she smiled, her smile was very forced, as if she was pretending on purpose. A completely formulaic smile - it's a million miles away from the perfect smile you put on yourself.
So, you, a bastard, are actually unwilling to marry an orphan? If you meow, then I will definitely marry you home and play SM with you every night. I will torture you to pieces and completely annex your country. What? Heir? Stop joking, okay? It's absolutely impossible for Gu to have any heirs. The reason has been mentioned a long time ago.
"Princess Anrietta, you are still as bright and charming as you were two years ago. Oh, no, I should say, you have become more beautiful." Gu chuckled and said this, and at the same time took a step forward to hold her. The hand expresses closeness. But I didn't expect this bastard to be so disrespectful. He immediately took a step back and distanced himself.
Her behavior made everyone at the welcome ceremony change their expressions. On Tristin's side, everyone from the Minister of Military and Aircraft to Mazzarini was embarrassed. At the same time, they expressed concerns about the effectiveness of this marriage.
On the Prussian side, the diplomatic attach¨¦s and knights of the guard who came with Gu all glared at each other, feeling that their king is such a hero, and it is completely insulting for him to be paired with a little girl like you. I didn¡¯t expect you would dare to prick like this? Damn it, there is a vast lowland between Tristin and Prussia. It only takes a matter of minutes to kill you, so be careful.
"Ahit's Gu's fault." Gu was stunned for a moment, then chuckled, and then bowed.
"No, no, no, you're too polite." Anrietta also knew that she had done something wrong. It was rare that she knew how to treat her like a gentleman. If she didn't know better, she would be a fool. So he quickly returned the gift.
So at the welcome ceremony, everyone¡¯s complexions returned to normal again.
After that, Gu and Henrietta got into the same carriage and headed directly towards Tristin's palace. It seems that these Toristians are going to place the orphan directly in the palace. I really can¡¯t wait to promote my princess. The carriage they were sitting in was also airtight. Only by straining their ears could they barely hear the cheers of the people on both sides of the street.
"Are you unhappy?" Gu asked, looking at the unhappy princess sitting next to him.
"How could it beI meanI am very happy to meet my future husband, I am very happy"
Seeing that the princess opposite said something against her will, Gu laughed loudly and said mischievously: "Is that so? I thought the princess felt that Gu was not good enough, so she didn't want to marry Gu."
"Do I have to marry you just because you are excellent?" Henrietta retorted - and regretted it the next moment.
However, Gu did not give her a second chance to explain, but said: "It's really not necessary. If you are willing, just say it loudly, and then you can go back to where you came from, and you will never give You are causing more trouble."
Henrietta was silent.
"How is it? Fair, isn't it? It's a multiple-choice question."
Henrietta looked directly into Gu's eyes: "I want to know, Your Majesty, why did you agree to marry me?"
"Then why did you marry Gu, princess?" Gu asked in return.
¡¡
Henrietta was silent again.
Gu laughed out loud again: "So, we all have our own purposes, and we all have what we want - each gets what he needs. This is the reason for our union, and it is also the only reason."
Henrietta suddenly became very sad: "Could it be that the marriage between usIs it just a deal? "
"While you are thinking about selling yourself to gain peace for the country, you are also imagining that your husband will truly love you. Don't you think you are going too far? Your Highness?"
¡Anrietta was silent again.
After a while, Henrietta sighed faintly, looking at Gu with a look of pity for some reason.
"Have you ever been in love? Have you ever loved someone sincerely? You don't even know what kind of emotion it is. I think you are very sad."
"How do you know that Gu has never fallen in love with anyone else?" Gu Qing snorted: "Don't be too arrogant, little girl. Gu did fall in love, and he did go crazy for love - in fact, he still does so now. . Gu really loves that girl. In fact, if she was still here, Gu would never agree to such a marriage - in fact, Gu wouldn't even look at you."
"Huh" Although I don't like Gu at all, I am forced to marry Gu. But Henrietta still felt very uncomfortable after hearing Gu's words.
"What kind of girl is that?" she asked unconvinced, and decided that once she spoke out, she would say that she was worthless no matter what.
"She is a petite girl who looks gentle and quiet. She usually just reads books and doesn't talk much. She also wears glasses. But her face is first-rate, and she is not as ignorant as you, Your Highness, Princess. On the contrary, it will be of great help to the orphan. Even if it does not count as a romantic relationship, it is also a very good helper to the orphan." The orphan mentioned all the characteristics of his elder sister Youxi, and finally added: "Don't say bad things about her. At least. Don't say it in front of Gu, otherwise Gu can't guarantee what kind of terrible things he will do."
"Huhwhat do you want?" Anrietta said stiffly.
"Because it's too scary, so I don't want to say it. But no matter what, Torristin will definitely no longer exist." Gu said with a smile, and at the same time, there was a permeating aura of terror all over his body, proving that he didn't say it casually. For play. Gu has the ability and the reason to raze Toristine to the ground.
After this, Henrietta was completely silent. Not another word was spoken.
In this way, the carriage gurgled forward, but Gu Que felt a little bored, so he opened Mo Feng's window and waved to the people outside.
"Oh my God, that's King Baldwin"
¡°He¡¯s even more handsome than the legend says.¡±
"It's like the incarnation of a god"
"Long live King Baldwin"
So, the people outside became excited. There was cheering for the man who was likely to rule the country for decades to come: Gu.
Henrietta, who was sitting on the other side, seemed completely forgotten.
This is not good.
So Gu Qiang took Henrietta¡¯s hand, walked out of the carriage, and stood on the outer wall of the carriage, making a very intimate appearance.
So the people cheered even louder.
"Long live King Wright Baldwin and long live Queen Henrietta"
Ah, what a lovely person. She actually changed her name to Queen at this time. Really smartor should I say, cunning?
Just like that, the carriage stopped at the entrance of the palace. Lonely jumped out of the car first, then took Henrietta's hand and pulled her out. Everything he does is very gentlemanly. The military minister who was observing from the side felt very pleased. I even felt a little embarrassed. After all, my own princess behaved so rudely in the beginning. Fortunately, King Baldwin didn't mind.
Doesn¡¯t it look good now? With Prince Baldwin so well behaved, it is not unimaginable that Princess Henrietta would change her mind in a short period of time. Just let them have more contact and cultivate more feelings in the next few days.
Of course. The Minister of Military and Aircraft added in his heart: Even if the princess is unwilling, the final result will be the same.
So, at the welcome dinner that day, Gu and Henrietta attended together. The two of them were perfectly matched in exquisite dresses. It looks quite perfect.
After the dinner, Gu and Princess Henrietta went to meet the widow of the late King Tristin, who was also Henrietta's mother. Gu's polite behavior and good qualities made this woman who wore mourning clothes all day long feel very happy - Gu also knew where the stinky disease on Henrietta's body came from. .
The next day, at breakfast, Gu and Henrietta joined hands.
After the garden party, Gu and Anrietta joined hands.
Lunch after, Gu joins hands with Anrietta.
The subsequent engagement ceremony should naturally involve Gu and Anrietta joining hands.
After a whole day of hard work, Gu is still looking graceful and graceful. But Henrietta was almost driven crazy. She clearly knew that the man opposite her didn't like her at all - he even had a love interest for a long time - and even said such outrageous things to her yesterday - but now she was holding her hand, as if it was the best thing. Like lovers. That gentle smile, caring eyes, and affectionate words don't look like they are pretending - but that's the fact. He will completely remove the disguise when there is no one, and look at it like garbage. Hold yourself. It's incredible.
"So, you are really naive. Disguise is one of the most basic skills of politicians. Of course, there are very few people like Gu who can use disguise to the extreme. I cherish it very much. I don¡¯t mind if you observe it carefully, just treat it as a lesson. How about it? "
¡°I absolutely don¡¯t want me to become someone like you even if I die.¡±
I remember what the woman said at that time. Are you kidding me, becoming such a lonely person? What qualifications do you have to be such a lonely person? Even if I just pull out a "beep" m¨¢o, it will be ten thousand times more noble than you.
So, these days lasted for a week. Seeing Princess Henrietta in a trance and her moral character on the verge of collapse, Gu Ye took his revenge. He let her go for the time being. Spending time together in the si family doesn't hurt her much anymore. As a result, Henrietta felt much more energetic the next day. Looking at Gu's eyes, he also put on a little emotion.
¡°Hmm¡ Stockholm syndrome?
That¡¯s pretty much it.
Thinking about it, Gu also went a little too far before this. After all, he is just a little girl who doesn't understand anything and is still fantasizing about love. Then I'll make it up to her a little bit in the days to come.
So, over the next week, we spent a lot of alone time together. I tried my best to use easy-to-understand sentences, and taught her these precious things bit by bit, including my governance experience and ways of dealing with others.
??And Henrietta is not an ignorant person. Although the innocent young girl's heart is very resistant to these realistic things. But as the only heir to a kingdom. It¡¯s okay not to learn these things. No one had ever taught her this before - or rather, she would be disgusted by anyone else who even mentioned these things in front of her. So what Gu said was very new to Anrietta.
Gradually, Anrietta no longer finds Gu annoying - in fact, there are not many women who find Gu annoying at first sight. Of course, purebred lilies are not included.
So, in the second week, Gu was surprised to find that Henrietta's dependence on Gu had become much higher. It's not love. It's more like a feeling between students and teachers. She recognized Gu's talents and abilities, and at the same time admired Gu and used Gu as a role model.
But this is not love.
Having said that, according to her initial thoughtswell, she has been in love before - no, maybe she is in love now. But the object of Gu Gu's observation should not be the people around her. So who is it?
Who is so bold?
Who on earth deserves to die like this?
I am getting more and more curious. Ha ha ha ha ha¡¡
Henrietta sat next to Gu, curiously looking at Gu's weird smile.
¡°Is this kind of smile also one of the skills that politicians need to master?¡± she asked.
"No, no, no." Gu shook his head and explained: "This is an advanced skill. It's a little too early for you. Only a duplicitous tyrant can master such a profound skill."
"Is that so?"
"Speaking of which, where are we going? Didn't I listen carefully when we arranged the itinerary yesterday?"
"Huh? But you are obviously very seriousis this one of your skills?"
"That's right, you should use this method to get rid of things that are not important and that you are not interested in. This will not cause the ministers to lose their loyalty."
"I see Speaking of which, we are going to Tristin's Magic Academy."
"That kind of placeis it an academy that teaches magic?"
"That's right, most of the noble children of Tristin are studying there. After graduation, they will be assigned to positions in the kingdom based on their performance."
"Speaking of which, besides teaching magic, does the Magic Academy teach anything else?" Gu asked.
"In addition to teaching magic, does the magic academy need to teach anything else? "She asked back.
"Of course it is necessary. If you only teach magic, the students you teach will only be qualified magicians. You want a group of qualified magicians to hold official positions. Do you think they can do it?"
"But, this is the tradition of Tristin."
"Yes, tradition. It is because Toristin respected tradition too much that he ended up in this situation. He lost more than half of his country and was caught between two powerful countries. This is all because of the so-called tradition. It's a blessing." Gu said: "At least it is not like this in Germania. There, as long as you work hard enough and are good enough, you can become a noble even if you are not a magician."
¡°That¡¯s why Germania is called a barbaric country.¡±
"Do you want to try what it feels like to be invaded by a barbaric country?" Gu rolled his eyes, then pressed forward, getting extremely close to Henrietta's face, and said this in a pun.
Henrietta turned away and said, "Please don't make fun of me like this, okay?"
"There is progress. At least it won't be a slap in the face like before." Gu said this and retracted his body to the original position.
"Even if I were to slap you, I wouldn't be able to hit you. Great hero" Anrietta said awkwardly.
"Absolutely. Judging the situation is also a skill that a governor should have - So tell Gu, what are we going to do there now? Are we going to visit? Forget about boring things like that. Speaking of Gu, when I go shopping occasionally , I saw a very nice hotel called Meihuo Fairy Hotel, how about we go there and have a look?"
"No, as soon as you hear the name, you know it's not a serious place." Henrietta immediately refused.
"Then forget it. Next time I'll go alone."
"¡ª¡ªI don't allow you to go to that kind of place"
"What are you doing? You are not qualified to take care of Gu's affairs."
"Even if it's for the sake of growing up with Yuxi, I still have to keep an eye on you, this crazy beast," Angelita replied.
"Oh, I learned this trick of making excuses very quickly. But Yuki never cares about such things."
"Forget it, I can't tell you clearly." Anrietta sighed: "But when I went to the Magic Academy today, I did see some very interesting things."
"Oh? What is it?"
"The second-year students will summon their familiars today. You will be able to see many rare monsters then."
"That's it. Although Gu doesn't think those little kids can summon anything powerful, let's go for now." Gu responded.
Henrietta automatically ignored the contempt in Gu's voice and asked: "Speaking of which, you don't seem to have a demon, right? Can you tell me the reason?"
"There's no special reason. I just don't want it. I think it's very troublesome."
"Don't you want to give it a try? Or are you not confident that you can summon a powerful familiar?"
"I've already said that I just find it troublesome. As for self-confidence, there should be no one more confident than Gu in the whole world."
¡°Then let¡¯s give it a try.¡±
"You have mastered the skill of misinterpreting semantics quite well."
"Thank you for the compliment. As a reward, you can try summoning the familiar once."
"I also master the trick of hitting the snake with a stick"
