The maid hesitated and said: "I don't know about this, I am only responsible for taking care of the lady."
"No, I have to ask clearly!" The eighth princess pushed her away and staggered to find the prince. However, she forgot that her legs could not walk now, and she fell again after taking a step, and her arms There was a long gash on the ground.
Tears fell instantly, and each one turned into pearls and accumulated into a small puddle under her body.
The maid in the back was stunned.
"Isn't this Miss Mermaid? Why are you lying on the ground? Get up quickly."
A familiar voice came from above her head, and the eighth princess looked up and saw Golightly's outstretched hand.
She seemed to have seen a life-saving straw. She didn't even think about why he appeared so well. She held his hand and asked excitedly: "Great wizard, you can lead me to find the prince, right? I want to see him!"
Golightly pulled her up from the ground, his eyes flashing slightly, "The prince is a little busy now, why are you looking for him?"
"He, is he getting engaged to the princess?"
The eighth princess looked heartbroken, "Why? Didn't he say he likes me?"
"Calm down my lady first." Golightly gave the maid a look, and the maid left quickly.
At this time, there were only two of them left. Gretel coaxed: "The marriage between the two countries was not decided by the prince alone. It was the king's order. The reason why I hid it from you was because I was afraid that you would be too worried if you knew about it. The prince now wants to marry the princess." be engaged, but when he is able, he can rebel against the king.”
"Ability? What ability?"
The eighth princess sniffed: "You really didn't lie to me?"
"I can swear." Golightly said seriously: "The prince really likes you, but after all, he is just a prince, not a king. He has no merit and naturally has no choice. The princess can at least help him."
"How can I help?" the eighth princess blurted out, "Me too -"
"What is that too?" Golightly looked at her with squinted eyes.
The eighth princess's long-lost IQ suddenly came online and she denied: "It's nothing."
Golightly lowered his eyes and whispered: "Behind the princess, there are forces from neighboring countries. Behind you...well, there is still a difference between civilians and nobles."
"I am also powerful. I know many, many mermaids, and they are all powerful!"
The eighth princess said expectantly: "Can't they?"
"Where?" Golightly looked at her suspiciously: "Just say it, it's hard for people to believe it."
"I..." The eighth princess hesitated.
Seeing this, Golightly shook his head in disappointment: "Miss, it's not good to lie. If the prince knows about it, he will be disappointed in you. I'll just pretend that you didn't say this. During this time, you can stay in your room." When the engagement is over, the prince will come to see you.”
After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave. The eighth princess was startled and quickly stopped him, "I didn't lie, I can tell you!"
Golightly turned his back to her and raised the corners of his mouth, saying softly: "Okay."

Three days later, the engagement banquet was held as scheduled, and a large dance was held in the palace, with all the princes and nobles attending in costumes.
Everyone took the invitation and entered through the palace gate. There were soldiers responsible for inspection at the door.
Lou Jinhuan and Catlow were among them, grabbing the invitations and handing them over.
Before the soldier took the invitation and read it, he saw Lou Jinhuan smiling at him, "Stand here all night, thank you for your hard work."
She wore light makeup tonight, and her ice-blue eyes were full of smiles, which made people dazzled.
The soldier said dazedly: "It's not hard, it's not hard."
Without even looking at the invitation, he said directly: "Miss, sir, please come in -"
