An no longer knew what words to use to describe his mood at this time.
Not long ago, An learned from his sister Mei Ke that the king of the Jizi Empire was a teenage boy. Children will be children, after all, there are those kind of peerless geniuses in this world. For example, Ling's eldest brother, who seems to be named Leko, is already famous throughout the continent at only six or seven years old. No one can say for sure that the king of the Jizi Empire is also a genius comparable to him.
But now, An heard what Hairen told the maid, saying that the king's name is Liliana. This is definitely a name only a girl would give. No perverted man would choose such a name.
"To be on the safe side, let me ask." An swallowed, "The king of this country is a teenage girl."
"Well, that's right." Mei Ke nodded.
"You know," An was stunned, "Then why didn't you tell me in the first place?"
"You didn't ask me." Mei Ke slumped her shoulders, "And I didn't know about it until I got here. I was surprised at the time."
"I'm just going, I didn't expect it." An looked like she had encountered a ghost.
This was not because An looked down upon women. The reason why he was surprised was because since the beginning of time, only men had become kings on the mainland. Although there are no explicit regulations, this has been a default tradition for thousands of years. Once again in history, a woman who led a successful revolution ignored the dissuasion of her comrades and proclaimed herself king. As a result, the country only existed for three days before disappearing due to the alliance of other countries to crusade and internal rebellion. in the long flow of history.
But now that he heard that the king of the Jizi Empire was actually a woman, and she was still a child, An, who had been familiar with history since she was a child, would of course be shocked.
This is an unprecedented thing. An is also surprised that the Jizi Empire has not been united by various countries to attack it. Perhaps this has something to do with Jizi's strength. Perhaps the many internal rebellions in the Jizi Empire are somehow related to this matter.
But these are not things that An and the others can control.
"What should I do? It seems that Suzuya is with the king. Do you want to go there?" Bai said.
Khan, that's the king's summons. Even if the bell is not there, we don't dare not go there no matter what we say.
An admired Bai's thick lines and completely ignored the king's words.
"It seems that our trip will be delayed again." Mei Ke slumped her shoulders helplessly.
"Okay, since the king wants to see us, he has to go." An scratched the back of his head, "But how are we going to get there?"
There was no way he could just walk into the palace so arrogantly and the guards would have caught us all first.
"The maid lady told us when she asked us to convey this matter." Liu Ge's expression was still very small, "Someone will come to pick us up soon."
An was surprised. He didn't expect that he was a very respectable person, and he actually had people sent by the king to pick him up and drop him off. But thinking about it, it may have a lot to do with the fact that he was mistaken for Ling's missing eldest brother, the regent of this country.
An couldn't help but smile bitterly when she thought of this. Now I don't know whether it is good or bad for me to be misunderstood like this. Ling simply ignored An's explanation and insisted that he was her eldest brother. I don't know how she confirmed this. It can't just be because of that ridiculous game and the handwriting that I don't know if it's true or false, it's too ridiculous.
An shook her head and decided not to think about it anymore. Thinking too much would just make herself uncomfortable.
With a subconscious glance, he saw the maid lady walking this way.
"Everyone, the escort sent by Her Majesty Liliana has arrived." The maid bowed slightly, "If everyone is ready, then we should set off to the palace now."
Everyone looked at each other, and Meiko nodded to the maid, indicating that she could lead the way.
"Okay, please follow me."
The maid said very respectfully, which made Bai Zao unbearable. Since arriving here, this maid has been taking care of him and others. Bai feels that it is too late to thank Hai, how can he let others be so respectful to him?
"Well, big sister, you don't have to be like this." Bai was a little incoherent because he was in a hurry. "You don't have to be so respectful to us. We are very grateful for your care during this period. If possible, just treat us as friends."
"You are the eldest lady's guests, so this is what you should do." After saying that, the maid didn't give Bai time to speak, and turned around to lead the way for An and the others.
The maid didn't speak again along the way, which made Bai feel very uncomfortable. Mei Ke saw Bai's inner thoughts, smiled slightly, and advised Bai not to be so persistent. There will still be a lot of time in the future, so just repay others slowly. There was really nothing Bai Ye could do but nodded in frustration.
An, who was walking at the front, noticed that after listening to the conversation between Miko and Bai, the maid had a faint smile on her face. She didn't know whether it was accident or helplessness.
An found it funny. It seemed that Bai's personality was also very special in front of other people. Maybe it was Bai who was so confused and serious that made her popular among the theater troupe audience second only to iku.
The maid led An and his party all the way to the door. An saw the gorgeous carriage at the door at first sight. There is a emblem of a purple rose surrounded by thorns on the carriage. Each corner of the carriage is inlaid with gold, which looks extremely gorgeous. In front of the carriage, stood a man wearing a white mask, with the same badge on the mask as on the carriage.
"Lord Leonhardt, the people invited by His Majesty are already here." The maid lady walked up to the masked man and bowed lightly.
The masked man nodded and looked around at everyone, his golden hair fluttering in the wind. Finally, his eyes lingered on An's body for a moment, then he walked to one side and put his left hand on his right chest, and spread his other hand towards the entrance of the carriage. The masked man didn't say a word during the whole process, and his actions stunned everyone except the maid.
"Everyone can get in the car." The maid explained.
Only then did everyone realize that this masked man, who seemed to have a high status, was inviting himself and others to get on the carriage. Looking at the masked man again, he nodded slowly.
Seeing that his movements remained unchanged from beginning to end, just like a doll, everyone couldn't help but feel a little frightened when they got in the car.
"Why does the name Leonhardt sound familiar?" On the carriage, An heard Meiko whispering to herself.
"What's wrong, sister?" An was surprised by Mei Ke's reaction, "Have you heard this name somewhere?"
"Wait, let me think about it." Mei Ke put her hands on her head and frowned, thinking hard.
Seeing her uncomfortable look, when An was trying to persuade her to stop thinking about it, Mei Ke suddenly raised her head.
"Ah, I remembered that Leonhart Avadonia was the captain of Ji Zi's escort team, and he was also the general of the Ji Zi Empire who held the highest military power."
