Half Elven Palace, Crystal Greenhouse.
This Crystal Greenhouse was specially built after Queen Aisha ascended the throne. Although it was not big, it was built with natural crystals.
Soft sunlight shone through the crystal dome and filled the entire greenhouse. The crystal walls were surrounded by copper pipes. From time to time, warm steam would spurt out from the holes on the surface of the copper pipes, making the entire greenhouse as warm as spring.
In such an environment, even though it was winter and the wind was howling, the greenhouse was still filled with gorgeous Blood Roses.
However, Colin's gaze was firmly fixed on Queen Aisha.
Today, the half-elven queen was wearing a snow-white tunic dress that accentuated her slender waist and straight back.
Her fair and slender hand held a freshly cut blood rose and slowly inserted it into the flower basket.
Then, she held the flower basket and looked at it for a while, a pure and beautiful smile blossoming on her lips.
This smile was completely different from the queen's usual flirtatious and charming image, which made Colin feel a little dazed.
"Does it look good?" Queen Aisha suddenly turned her head and smiled brightly at Colin.
Colin came back to his senses and nodded, "It looks good!"
It was unknown whether he was praising the flowers or the beauty.
Queen Aisha smiled slightly proudly and then put the flower basket on the small round table in the center of the greenhouse. She sat down on a rattan chair, "Aren't you worried about what Queen Mydella said to me?"
Colin also sat down on a rattan chair opposite Queen Aisha and shook his head with a smile, "What is there to worry about? It's just a simple provocation."
"Is it really not a clever one?" Queen Aisha smiled slyly, "Lord Viscounts, it seems that you don't understand women, especially pregnant women."
Colin put away the frivolous expression on his face and thought carefully. He couldn't help but nod, "It does make sense. So, you were really touched by the queen's words?"
Queen Aisha didn't answer, but instead asked, "If you knew in advance that I was pregnant, would you still have proposed that assassination plan?"
"No." Colin said without hesitation.
Queen Aisha smiled sweetly, as if the man's answer satisfied her, but then she changed the topic, "But I would!"
"Hmm?" Colin raised his eyebrows and looked at Queen Aisha in confusion.
Queen Aisha's expression was calm, but her voice was as hard as iron, "I would choose to continue with that assassination plan, even if I might lose this child."
Colin's expression changed slightly, "Aisha, you …"
"If I could use the life of my child in exchange for the awakening of the half-elves, I wouldn't hesitate."
Colin narrowed his eyes and looked at the half-elf queen with bright eyes.
Queen Aisha also stared into Colin's eyes without flinching, revealing her truest side.
After a long while, Colin sighed and said with a smile, "Looks like Queen Mydella's plan isn't very smart, because she doesn't know what kind of person you are."
"Then, what kind of person am I?"
Colin was about to answer when he felt something rubbing his calf under the round table.
As soon as he raised his head, he saw Queen Elsa with a smile on her face. She was looking at him charmingly.
Colin's heart couldn't help but skip a beat. He quickly reached out and grabbed the other's naughty little foot that was teasing him.
The delicate and smooth feeling made Colin couldn't help but hold Queen Aisha's delicate and charming jade foot in his palm and gently knead it.
Queen Aisha's fair cheeks blushed, and her watery eyes glanced at Colin flirtatiously.
It was as if she was complaining about his presumptuousness, but also as if she was encouraging him to be bold.
Just as Colin was about to lift the round table in front of him and further explore the seductive and mysterious flower path, a maid suddenly reported from outside the crystal greenhouse.
"Your Majesty, Prince Harrison and Miss Vera are outside asking for an audience."
Colin suddenly felt a little depressed.
If it were anyone else, he would definitely ask Queen Aisha to send them away, but these two were really difficult to deal with.
Queen Elsa looked at the deflated Colin. She suddenly covered her mouth and giggled. She comforted him, "I will prepare honey chrysanthemum tea tonight. Lord Viscount, do you want to have a taste?"
Of course, Colin wouldn't refuse. "Okay! I must try the tea personally made by Your Majesty and see what it tastes like. "
Queen Elsa giggled and withdrew her slender foot from Colin's evil hand. She said to the maid outside in a loud voice, "Let them in."
Soon, Prince Harrison and Vera walked in.
Today, Vera was wearing a long white dress that was slightly trailing on the ground. She also wore a white curly-brimmed hat. She looked dignified and elegant, like a blooming magnolia.
As soon as the girl entered the greenhouse, she smiled sweetly at Colin. If there weren't other people in the greenhouse, she would have jumped straight into Colin's arms.
After a while, Vera looked at the beautiful blood roses and couldn't help but praise, "Your Majesty, the blood roses that you have cultivated are getting more and more beautiful."
Queen Aisha smiled gently and said, "Miss Vera, you are too kind. If you want to learn, I would be happy to teach you. "
Vera was a little tempted, but she was also a little hesitant.
Queen Aisha seemed to see through Vera's inner struggle, and she comforted her, "Don't worry, these flowers are cultivated with animal blood."
Vera was relieved when she heard that there was no need for human blood or even human heads. She smiled and said, "Okay, then I will have to trouble you."
Prince Harrison, of course, had no interest in the flower cultivation technology. He approached Colin and asked in an admiring tone.
"Your Excellency Viscount Angley, can you tell me how you defeated the 100,000 soldiers of the Eastern Army with only 8,000 Black Cavalry soldiers?"
Colin lowered his head and looked at the eldest prince of the Empire of Light, but there was a trace of annoyance in his heart.
After all, Queen Mydella had tried to sow discord between him and Queen Elsa. Naturally, Colin hated Prince Harrison, and he didn't like him either.
He had long regarded the half-elf kingdom as his own, so how could he allow others to try to intervene?
Not even the imperial family of the Empire.
Of course, he would not show this disgust. He still had a kind smile on his face and said perfunctorily, "Your Highness, it was the half-elf army that defeated the Eastern Army, not the Black Cavalry soldiers."
"That is also very powerful! Can you teach me how to command cavalry in battle? "
Prince Harrison had a pure and flawless smile on his face, but in Colin's eyes, it seemed a little fake.
Colin rolled his eyes and suddenly had a good way to make the San Lorenzo family unhappy.
"Commanding cavalry in battle is just a small matter. Your Highness, as a prince of the Empire, you should learn more powerful things."
Prince Harrison's eyes lit up, and he suddenly became interested: "What more powerful things?"
"You will know when you come with me."
After that, Colin took Prince Harrison and said goodbye to Queen Aisha and Vera, and then left the crystal greenhouse.
