Chapter 597: I will give you an honorable and difficult task
Hearing the Queen's words, Madeleine couldn't help but frown. Indeed, this was unusual. How could a princess escape from the pirate ship for no reason? There might be a big plot, which made the queen vigilant.
She had once suffered the loss of being betrayed. Except for her subordinates and Madeleine, she didn't believe anyone else. In such a case, if she sent her subordinates to deal with it, it would be inconvenient to deal with it because their identities were not equal to that of the princess. But Madeleine was no problem. As a Duke, it was absolutely enough for her to communicate with a princess.
Madeleine said pitifully, "Elizabeth, after hearing what you said, I also think I'm the best choice, but... Look at me..."
"Don't worry. I'll handle it for you," said the queen. "Rotate your crystal ball and let me see Robb Smith."
Madeleine did as what she said. The crystal ball circled around, and then Robb appeared in front of the queen. This time, Madeleine could only see her image.Fiind updated novels at novelhall.com
With his current identity, Robb couldn't talk to her like Godfather, so he had to use the standard noble etiquette. "Your Majesty, what can I do for you?"
The queen said expressionlessly, "Robb Smith, Baron..."
She stressed the two words "Baron" and then prolonged the tone. Of course, she wanted Robb to understand why she called him "Baron" here.
Robb immediately understood. By mentioning his title, she implied that you were a minister of the Kingdom of Gran and should follow the orders of the queen. Otherwise, you would be returned to a civilian in minutes.
The queen said, "now the queen has an honorable and difficult task for you to do. Duke Madeleine is ordered to go to Lost City to solve the problem of the princess of Big Tang. However, she doesn't have enough people around her. The Black Earth Knights have returned to Bright Road, and she only has five Black Earth Knights by her side, which is not enough to guarantee her safety. I want you to go with her. Be her guard, and make sure she can come back safely."
Robb cursed in his heart, [this task is too far fetched, isn't it?]
Of course, even though he thought so, he couldn't say anything. He had no choice but to put one hand on his chest and leaned forward slightly. "Yes, your majesty. Robb Smith, a wind magician, is willing to work for the queen. He will try his best to ensure the safety of the duke."
The queen clapped her hands and said, "well, Madeleine, the problem is solved. You don't have to take a vacation."
"Okay!" Robb smiled and accompanied her. The two of them strolled around, looking at the beautiful Stone Canyon.
Madeleine was very happy. "It's so beautiful here. It's great, but I always feel that something is missing."
"What's missing?" Robb asked.
"What's missing?" Madeleine didn't remember for a while. After a long time, when the two of them walked near the chapel, Madeleine suddenly woke up. "Eh? The leader's house? This is your territory. Why isn't there your mansion? There isn't even a castle or manor."
Robb was speechless
He really forgot it!
Even if he pretended, he had to build a leader's mansion here for himself. Otherwise, he would expose it sooner or later.
Right, Madeleine was really strange. No one else had thought of this. How could she think of it so easily? All of a sudden, Robb's head was awakened. RIght, she was considering where to live if she married him
Robb had no choice but to say, "about the mansion, here is the thing. I used to live in Westwind Town, learning wind magic from Godfather. I didn't move to Stone Canyon in a hurry, so I didn't live here. Besides, when I saw cement, I didn't want to build a shabby stone house. I wanted to build a beautiful big mansion with cement, so there was no hurry. When I am free, I would build a beautiful cement house."
"I heard that cement houses are very expensive," said Madeleine.
"It seems to be a little expensive."
"Well... If you don't have enough money," Madeleine blushed and said, "I can give you... No, I can lend you some."
She wanted to say something, but when she thought of the man's pride and that he might not be willing to use the money of a women, she quickly changed it to lend. In this way, she considered the man's pride. As long as she did not ask for it, the other party did not need to pay it back. How wonderful it was.
