vip chapter

Chapter 508 [Second Scene] (two chapters in one)

.

(I put a lot of effort into shaping the character of Ossie. Of course, I have a lot of intentions, not just to make up for the word count.   It’s like writing the princess and the knight before... It’s not just as simple as pairing the supporting characters, but for the future plot and Roland The fate of the empire has a great influence.

After all, this is a serial, and I can't reveal many future plots. Readers who read the serial, please be patient. A novel is not as simple as one plus one equals two. The so-called main line is condensed by branch lines one after another, and finally forms the main line! )

Chapter 508 [Second Scene]

Ossie yelled loudly when she was irritated, but after yelling, she immediately came to her senses and her face flushed.

Talking about "I was engaged to you at the beginning" is really not an appropriate topic to talk about now.  After all, a girl has entered into engagements with two men successively, and these two men are brothers... This is really not a very glorious thing.

Ossie said something wrong all of a sudden, and felt great remorse in her heart, and she simply waited to accept the ridicule of the hateful Duke Tulip.

What will he say? Well, he must be very proud! He must have said to himself, "Hmph, you blind woman! It was you and your family who looked down on me at the beginning! I never thought that I would soar into the sky now!"

Yes, he should be proud, he does have the capital to be proud.

But Ossie waited for a long time, but she didn't wait for Du Wei's ridicule. She looked at Du Wei intently, but found that this guy had a gentle smile... His eyes were still so clear and sincere.

He looks very nice when he smiles. The two eyes are slightly curved, and there is a smile in the corner of the eyes, which is very friendly.

"You seem very angry... This matter has always troubled you." Du Wei's voice was more gentle, even with a hint of apology.

"You..." Ossie was speechless.

Du Wei smiled, and suddenly stretched out his hand to point outside the fence, in the courtyard of the Royal Garden. There is a bench and a few swings: "I'm tired of standing.   Go and sit down.  "

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand naturally, and pulled Ossie's arm.  Ossie was in a daze, and was led by this kid into the garden.

There is really no beautiful scenery in the Royal Garden of the Imperial Palace. After all, thorn flowers are planted here, and thorn flowers are really not ornamental plants.

But at this moment, the stars are cold and the moon is cold, and the stars and moonlight are falling down.  There is quite a peaceful atmosphere.

After pulling Ossie to sit down, Du Wei looked at the girl and said with a smile: "I just learned from your friend that you hate me very much, even...hate me.   Right?"

"Yes!" Ossie puffed up her chest, "I really hate you, and your family!"

"I fully understand. " Du Wei sighed. Fortunately, Manny had already said a lot to herself when she was dancing just now. Du Wei understood what kind of situation the girl in front of her was living in—for a young girl. It is indeed cruel.

"I can apologize, although I don't think it's my fault." Du Wei shrugged.

Ossie was speechless...She was not an overbearing and unreasonable person, intellectually she knew very well that this really had nothing to do with Du Wei. But after all, because of this incident, she was treated unfairly, so she naturally felt disgusted with Du Wei.

She was about to stand up and looked at Du Wei: "You just want to tell me this?"

"No. " Du Wei shook his head, but reached out and pressed Ossie's shoulder lightly.  Smiling: "I just wanted to talk to you.   Océlia... well, can I call you Ossie?"

"No!" Ossie snorted.

"Okay, Ossie." Obviously, Du Wei's face is much thicker than she imagined: "You know, my brother will come of age in less than a year.   At that time, I plan to let you get married...that is, Said, we are going to be a family, so I don't want our relationship to be so rigid, do you understand?"

After a pause, Du Wei sighed. The voice is very sincere: "I love Gabriel very much. He is my only younger brother. I hope that since we are a family. Then we should love each other and live in harmony. "

Ossie obviously couldn't figure it out—he, is he showing his kindness to himself, expressing kindness?

After Ossie became sensible, every time she thought of her first meeting with the Duke of Tulip, she would always picture various plots in her mind, but there was usually only one scene: the other party's merciless mockery and humiliation of herself. .

Who told his family to regret the marriage so blindly?

Such scenes turned around in her mind too much, even if she had never met Du Wei, Miss Ossie had already deeply regarded Du Wei as an "enemy". So, from a psychological point of view, the reason why she behaved like a hedgehog in front of Du Wei was actually a subconscious act of self-protection in order to prevent the other party from humiliating her.

This kind of psychology is very subtle, but fortunately, Du Wei can fully understand it.

"We are not enemies. In the near future, we will become relatives.  My younger brother is one of my closest relatives. He is a smart boy. Our brotherhood is quite good, so you will become his wife, I hope there can be harmony within the family. " Du Wei looked at the girl with a smile—he could see that the girl was actually very simple: "I think we can be friends. "

Ossie didn't speak, but Du Wei smiled very familiarly: "If you don't speak, I'll take it as your consent. "

"Your Excellency!" Ossie was still trying to keep a cold face.

"No, call me Du Wei, or call me brother." Du Wei smiled and said: "You are my family, so you can call me that.  "

elder brother? Never!

But when Ossie looked at the gentle and elegant young man in front of her, she couldn't help but feel a little shaken in her heart.

Brother... I think of the brothers in my family. All of them are standard playboys, and they even flirt with their girlfriends and friends on weekdays. Even when facing their younger sister, they seldom look serious.  There are even a few cousins ​​who coveted their beauty since childhood...

In comparison, the guy in front of him with a very gentle smile, and what he said just now sounds good.  At least it looks like a big brother.

He... doesn't seem to be as bad as he imagined.

※#8226;

There is no doubt that Du Wei is very eloquent.  She is also very good at communicating with people, and even leading topics—at least a simple little girl like Ossie, who has no heart and no city, is absolutely no match for Du Wei.

In short, Du Wei easily opened up the topic and stirred up the embarrassing atmosphere. Then easily brought up one or two topics that young girls are very interested in, and then led Osie to speak.

Ossie tried her best to show her resistance at first, but soon she was unknowingly broken by Du Wei. The tone of my speech has also relaxed a lot, and my speech has gradually changed from one or two words to one or two sentences, three to five sentences, seven or eight sentences...

Even if you hate Du Wei... Well, at least he is really funny and understanding.

"We're in the castle on the Rolling Plains, and there's a yard in the back.   I made some interesting stuff there, oh, that's where hot air balloons were invented.   Do you like it? I've given Gabriel that place now , I can let him take you there to play in the future... Do you like to fly to the sky in a hot air balloon? Hehe, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. There are several large hot air balloons in the castle.   And those fireworks..."

"You mean   the fireworks of the Yujin family?" Ossie was tempted.

Juvenile temperament, how many half-grown children don't like to set off fireworks?

A triumphant smile flashed in Du Wei's eyes: "Of course! Fireworks were first made in the castle, and now there are still a group of craftsmen there. Many of the New Year's fireworks are shipped from the Luolin Plain. Now Gabriel has taken over some family affairs... Ah, yes, I remembered something. ”

Du Wei pretended to think of something suddenly: "I almost forgot.   Well, this New Year, Gabriel wrote me a letter.   He also prepared a gift.   Let me pass it to you.  "

"Give me... a New Year's gift?" Ossie suddenly felt a little proud!

My fiancé, during the New Year. From the far south, a gift came...

Is this considered romantic?

The young girl was instantly filled with such fantasies and romantic thoughts.

Du Wei saw it, and chuckled in his heart: Sure enough, young girls always like these places.

But Gabriel... is really too careless. It stands to reason that he will be an adult next year, so he should prepare some gifts and send them to the imperial capital for his fiancée during this kind of festival.

It's a pity that I am not by his side, and there are no brothers around him who can order things like him. Because of the death of my father, my mother has been depressed, so I seldom think about these little things. .

"Is... what gift?" When Ossie said this, her voice was already a little eager.

Du Wei spread his hands: "Sorry, I forgot to bring it tonight, but I can send someone to deliver it to you tomorrow.   Ah... By the way, are you interested in watching the tournament? You can go to my box, I'll have someone bring you a gift. "

Tournament?

Ossie was immediately moved.

How could she not be tempted by the excitement that swept the entire imperial capital? Although martial arts competitions are something men like, but for noble ladies, this competition is not too cruel and bloody, and it is lively enough. There are also many young and handsome warriors participating... There are still many things to watch.

But Ossie was always a little annoyed. Because... Du Wei is also to blame! Tickets for the game are too expensive!

Of course, this is relative to the actions of the nobles on the second and third floors.

A box on the third floor costs several thousand gold coins! ! Although her grandfather was the Minister of Finance of the empire, he was a very clean official, and the family's property was not too much. This was all to avoid gossip, so although life was good, it was not extravagant. For a young lady like her, the monthly expenses are only a few dozen gold coins.

Not to mention spending thousands of gold coins to watch a martial arts competition.

Not to mention the VIP box on the third floor. Even the seats on the second floor are not affordable for Ossie. As for the brothers in the family...they spend a lot of time on weekdays, and they have no spare money. Grandfather and father are very strict, and it is even more impossible to allow them to spend money indiscriminately.

On weekdays, other little sisters talked about this game, especially the daughter of the Marquis. The family has booked a box on the third floor, although the location is far away. But it has become her capital to show off.

How cunning and cunning Du Wei is, he immediately saw her thoughts from the change of expression on the girl's face, and said with a smile: "Well, I will send someone to pick you up for the game tomorrow afternoon, and you can watch the game in my box , and... I will play tomorrow. ”

snort.  It’s best to see you being flattened into a pig’s head.

Ossie thought maliciously in her heart, but seeing Du Wei's gentle smile, she suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

At this time, Du Wei finally stood up...

boom!

There was a loud bang in the sky!

Immediately, a gorgeous firework suddenly bloomed, and then countless fireworks rose into the sky, immediately painting the dark night sky into a grotesque scene.

"New Year's fireworks..." Du Wei laughed, "Is it already past midnight?"

Ossie raised her head, leaned her neck hard, and stared dumbfounded.

"Okay. Let's go back, it's very cold here, if you catch a cold, you won't be able to go out tomorrow. " Du Wei said, and wanted Laoxi to go back.

Ossie seemed to have let go of her hostility towards Du Wei, but she took two steps. Suddenly heard a chirp, Ossie exclaimed suddenly, and jumped up with a mournful face: "My skirt!"

I saw that rose-colored evening dress, the hem of the skirt was hooked by the thorns on the side of the road, and the hard thorns pulled the skirt out of a long hole. Ossie's face was extremely annoyed, and she was even more at a loss: "My skirt...is terrible, what can I do. "

Du Wei smiled and looked at the girl's torn skirt, which exposed her calf above the knee.  Du Wei smiled and took out a long cloak from his storage ring pocket.

Seeing that Du Wei flicked his wrist lightly, a cloak was conjured out of thin air.  To Ossie's surprise.

"Put it on. If the skirt is torn, it will be inconvenient." Du Wei laughed.

But Ossie still looked helpless: "But the skirt is broken.   I..."

"It's just a skirt." Du Wei pouted.

"This is not my skirt." Ossie suddenly hesitated, looked at Du Wei for a few times, and then said in a low voice: "I borrowed this skirt from my cousin... This is the first time I have attended a palace banquet. A suitable evening dress... I, I have very little pocket money on weekdays.   My cousin likes this dress very much. It took me a lot of time to borrow it, but now it's broken..."

As she said that, she finally uttered her request: "Your Excellency..."

"Call me Du Wei, or brother. " Du Wei smiled.

Ossie hesitated for a moment, and finally gritted her teeth: "Du Wei, can you help me..."

"Okay, I'll give you a new piece of land." Du Wei smiled indifferently.

"No, I don't want you to give me a skirt. " Ossie shook her head, wondering: "You...you just cast magic? Then can you use magic to change this skirt back to its original appearance..."

Du Wei laughed, and the way he laughed made Ossie a little annoyed, she lowered her head and said, "If it doesn't work, forget it...".

"No, lovely Ossie, my future sister-in-law, I need to correct your common sense. Remember: the cost of letting a magician perform magic is far more expensive than a dress! Do you understand? ?” As he spoke, Du Wei suddenly squatted down in front of Ossie, reaching out to grab the corner of Ossie's skirt.

"Ah! What are you doing!!" Ossie was terrified, and she jumped up.

"Don't move. " Du Wei didn't care about her, he directly grabbed a corner of the other party's skirt and turned over to look at the stitches inside, and then he found a small piece of cloth with a few lines of text tattooed on it .

"Okay." Du Wei let go of his hand and stood up: "This is an evening dress that came out last year. It's red and medium size. I just wrote down her style and model number.   Don't worry, tomorrow morning I will let people Give you a red dress that is exactly the same. ”

"You..." Ossie was stunned, and she couldn't help but also looked at the corner of her skirt. She herself didn't know what the strange characters on the piece of cloth in the corner of the skirt meant, but it seemed that Du Wei knew: what color and style number?

Could it be...

Seeing Ossie staring at him, Du Wei admitted, and said with a smile: "Yes, you are smart, you guessed right, this dress is made in the property under our family.   But your cousin Obviously, the taste is very average... This is just a style from last year.   New Year’s new, it seems that she doesn’t have it yet.   The piece of fabric above.   It’s something specially sewn on by our local tailor when it’s produced. This is our specialty.  ”

※#8226;

When Ossie and Du Wei returned to the banquet hall together, Manny and several other girls immediately noticed that Ossie and Du Wei were walking together, and Ossie was still wearing a cloak.

"My God, Ossie, where have you been?" Manny strode over, with a few other girls behind her—obviously. These people came here for Du Wei.

Ossie opened her mouth, but said nothing.

"Hehe, ladies. " Du Wei smiled gracefully: "I just went to discuss some family matters with my brother's fiancée, oh, including the future wedding arrangements for Osie and my brother. Just some family matters. "

Then he suddenly blinked at Ossie: "Ossie, don't forget about the game tomorrow afternoon.   I will send someone to pick you up... Oh, yes.   Anyway, the box is very big, you guys Friends can sit down if they want to go. ”

box? ?

The box at the martial arts tournament?

Who doesn't know what the boxes on the third floor in the tournament represent! Those who can go up to the third floor are the most prominent and noble circles in the empire! Moreover, Du Wei's box is next to the royal box! One of the best locations!

"Oh. Ossie, can we go together?" Manny was the first to plead.

Ossie looked a little complicated, glanced at Du Wei, faltered a bit, and then whispered: "Oh, yes, of course..."

There was a burst of screaming from the girls.  Then Du Wei winked and smiled at Ossie, nodded and left.

"Oh my god! He's so charming!" Manny waited for a group of girls to look at Du Wei's back, and then someone turned around and smiled at Ossie: "Ossie! He's your big brother! You must help Help us!"

"But he's already married.  His wife is a magician!" Ossie was still a little dissatisfied with the nympho attitude these people showed towards Du Wei.

"Who cares!" A noble girl looked at Du Wei in the distance: "It's not bad to be a lover, he is now the number one celebrity in the empire!"

Ossie also looked at Du Wei in the distance with a complicated expression... It feels really good to be surrounded by these girls. She has seldom enjoyed this feeling of being surrounded by so many stars! Although all this is because of that Du Wei.

but……

He is indeed a nice guy. A very good brother.

※#8226;

"Have you finished solving your family conflicts?" Seeing Du Wei walking back. Prince Chen, who was sitting on the throne, curled his lips: "You have been gone for half an hour. "

"I attach great importance to family harmony.  " Du Wei raised a smile, and then picked up a wine glass. Gives a distant signal to Prince Chen. The regent picked up the wine glass to respond, and the two took a sip. Du Wei suddenly looked at Prince Chen and said with a smile: "Your Highness, do you even know about my family conflicts? I really can't imagine, what is there in this world?" Things are beyond your knowledge. ”

It was Du Wei who dared to say such things in front of Prince Chen. Prince Chen didn't care too much: "You know, as a monarch, there are too many things to control.   Sometimes, I have no choice.  ".

"Then I wish His Royal Highness good health." Du Wei smiled and drank the wine in the glass.

The young men who currently hold the greatest power in the two empires smiled at each other.

※#8226;

The next day, the day after the new year, the martial arts competition finally continued, but in order to take care of the New Year's carnival the night before, this day's competition was scheduled to start in the afternoon.

And this day is the second round of preliminaries.

In the second round of preliminaries, there were nearly 400 contestants.  Still draw lots, but this time in groups of four, the rules are the same as in the first round, and only one winner in each group can qualify.

Immediately after the lottery ended, a helpless sigh broke out.

The three warriors who were in the same group as Du Wei showed grief and helplessness...

※#8226;

The day was almost fabulous for Ossie! And her previous years of life. It is completely different, and it can even be said that it has opened a whole new page!

in the morning. The Tulip family sent someone to deliver a big gift to Miss Ossie.

This is an expensive wooden box, inside is a fist-sized South Sea pearl - the price of this treasure in the market is at least 50,000 gold coins!

Of course, it was sent by Du Wei in the name of Gabriel.

With this gift came a brand new red evening dress, the same one that Miss Ossie had worn last night.  In addition, there are several latest women's evening and winter clothes in Tulip Workshop this year, as well as a very heroic leather women's hunting suit.

"My lord said that Miss Ossie may be invited to go hunting in a few days.   I thought that Miss Ossie might not have new hunting clothes, so I sent these.  "

It was delivered by little Sandy himself, who is very articulate.

Although the Chancellor of the Exchequer lived a very simple life in order to avoid tongue-tied words, it was just a gift from his future in-laws, so he accepted it.

And then, Ossie immediately became the focus of a group of little sisters in the family—obviously, teenage girls.  I really enjoy this feeling, which is also human nature.

In the afternoon, the surprise got bigger and bigger.

Du Wei sent a carriage to pick up Miss Ossie and her friends to watch the game.  And this carriage is the Duke Tulip's own car! !

Du Wei's carriage is famous in the aristocratic circle of the imperial capital for its gorgeous luxury, which is extremely cool!

Every piece of wood is the best. Even the horses that pull the carts are the best horses we can get from the grasslands! I'm afraid that if such a good horse is sent to the army, only officers at the general level are eligible to use it as a mount. Available here at Du Wei... only for pulling carts!

The spacious carriage is more than twice the size of an ordinary noble carriage, and the magic field under the wheels is activated, making the carriage run briskly without any sense of bumps.

The ornate, almost extravagant furnishings in the carriage also left everyone dumbfounded.

This extravagant Du Wei, he actually used magic gemstones as lighting objects in the carriage!

And the velvet underneath... Ossie remembered that there was such a piece in her cousin's house, which was used as a bed quilt, and it was not easily taken out on weekdays. It will only be used on important festivals.

But here in Du Wei. Used to be placed in the carriage compartment, spread on the ground and step on...

Several knights of the Tulip family rode horses to guard the carriage.

Ossie was a little uneasy... She felt that she shouldn't accept too much kindness from Du Wei.

But Sandy, the little housekeeper, said to her: "My lord has said it.   You are welcome, after all, you are the wife of the second young master. It can be said that you are also the future half of the mistress of the family. You are entitled to enjoy everything in the family. "

Although she was still a little uneasy in her heart, the envious eyes from the other girls next to her still made Osie feel a little ecstatic.

And after arriving at the venue...

The carriage of the Tulip family walked ahead, and even soldiers from the security station drove along the road, opening a road from the crowd to let them in.  Enter the third floor directly from the VIP passage behind the Knights Association.

And when they walked past the box of the Tulip family, a group of young girls stared at the boxes around them dumbfounded...

God!

Right next door, the ruler of the empire, His Excellency the Regent, and the little prince Charlie are sitting in a box together! On the right is the box of the prime minister's family, but the prime minister did not come, but Camisiro and his wife came.  Behind them are the Villa family, one after another prominent families...these are the big men who have truly mastered the power of the empire! !

When he saw the business manager of the famous Tulip family in the imperial capital, little Zach opened the door of the box with his own hands, and when the ladies came in with an elegant gesture, a group of girls were a little embarrassed. .

Because although little Zach is not a nobleman, in fact, everyone knows that he is the top five core figures in the Tulip family! In the imperial capital, little Zach's status is even much higher than that of many nobles! Many real big shots are polite when facing him.

But in this box, little Zach was on the side, as gentle as a butler: "Several distinguished ladies, if you have any needs here, please tell me. "

ordered?

In the imperial capital, how many people dare to "order" little Zack to do things?

As little Zach walked out of the box door, Manny beside her suddenly shook Ossie, who was already a little absent-minded.

"Ossie! Ossie!" Manny said excitedly, "We are actually sitting here! Can you believe it? I'm so fucking dreaming! My God! Your Excellency the Duke treats you so well!! You will marry me in the future! After joining the Luo Lin family, you can officially become a member of this place!"

"That's right! Your Excellency the Duke treats your family very well... Oh, Ossie, it would have been great if you had continued to marry the Duke. "

I don't know who said this all of a sudden.

Ossie's complexion suddenly changed...

Manny noticed the change in her friend's expression, and was about to persuade her, when she heard a burst of noise and cheers from below.

"Look! Your Excellency the Duke is here!!"

※#8226;

Du Wei was the first to step onto the ring with his head held high.

He is very confident in today's game, and... he hopes to wash away the shame of the farce-like preliminaries with today's game! Let everyone see their own strength instead of being treated as a joke!

After all, Du Wei still has a bit of a temper. He practiced martial arts hard these days. At this moment, his mind is like a child who has got an interesting toy and always wants to show it off to others. But the preliminaries a few days ago really made him vomit blood with anger!

But certainly not today!

Because Du Wei's opponents in this group today, all three of his opponents are holy knights! !

The holy knight of the temple will never stop fighting with himself! snort!

Today, let me, Du Wei, show off my martial arts skills! !

Thunderous cheers! !

(Tomorrow is the last day at the end of the month, I will explode! Please vote for me every month! Swear to be the first of the year! For the first of the year, every monthly ticket is very important! Thanks to the readers for your help!! )
