1936, Winter.
The Duke of York, who had succeeded to the throne, and his wife, as well as his two daughters, Princess Elizabeth and Princess Margaret, were hiding in Balmoral Castle from the Second World War.
Princess Elizabeth was only 13 years old.
The Duke of York was reading the newspaper in his hand.
After a silent breakfast, the young and immature Princess Elizabeth suddenly said, "Father, are we going to hide here and do nothing?"
The Duchess … the Queen gave her a look of silence, but it didn't stop the young Princess from speaking.
"Our country's name is being sacrificed on the continent across the ocean. And we're enjoying the warmth of the fireplace in this castle … "
"Elizabeth." The Queen's voice was slightly heavier. "Don't add to your father's troubles."
The Queen's tone was already stern, and the young princess could only reluctantly lower her head. As for the even younger Princess Margaret, at this moment, she was only hugging her doll and looking at all of this in horror.
"Then, I'll go back to my room first." Princess Elizabeth stood up and left.
"Elizabeth, have you forgotten the etiquette of royalty?" The Queen couldn't help but frown.
The Princess said calmly, "Mother, I want to learn fencing, horsemanship, and strategy … not to study Shakespeare's words!"
"You …" The Queen was furious.
But at this moment, the new king who had been silent for a long time finally spoke. He put down the newspaper and spoke slowly, "Y 'lisabet, you've reached the age where you should go to school. But considering the current situation, I've specially hired a tutor for you … Go, your tutor is waiting in the study. I hope you can show the etiquette that a royal princess should have and accept your new tutor."
"I don't need a tutor, Father!"
"This is an order. This tutor will teach you … "The new King looked at his eldest princess with a complicated expression." You'll never know what price I paid to hire this tutor for you … Cherish it. This tutor will change your life. If you don't want to live a mediocre life. "
…
Although her conflicting emotions almost overcame her obedience to her father, the young Princess was defeated by her mother's attack. She reluctantly came to the door of the study.
She didn't yearn for the tutor that her father said was very powerful. She was thinking of how to make the tutor back off.
Taking a deep breath, the young Princess pushed open the door of the study and said loudly, "Where's the new tutor?"
As she spoke, the princess observed the situation in the study. She expected the tutor to be someone who wore a pair of glasses and looked elegant or knowledgeable. Otherwise, it would be impossible for her father to hire him.
However, the person who appeared in front of the Princess wasn't a literary type, but a young woman.
She had long golden hair, dark blue eyes … and a faint smile.
"You … You're my tutor?"
The beautiful young woman didn't answer. She just picked up a heavy sword used for fencing from the table and threw it at the Princess.
The Princess caught it in a hurry. While she was puzzled, the blonde woman in front of her picked up the same heavy sword and said indifferently, "In ten minutes, if you can touch any part of my clothes, I'll leave here … How about it?"
God … The Princess didn't even know how the other party pulled out two heavy swords in the study.
But that wasn't important. What was important was that fencing was something she loved.
"No, I'll call for help." The Princess's eyes suddenly became sharp …
…
…
Memories flashed through her mind. The Queen, who had aged a long time ago, reached out and touched her cheek … It was cold and moist.
"Little Elizabeth, long time no see …"
"Really … It's really you, You Ye -sensei?"
The Queen staggered forward step by step. "It's been so many years … Am I really seeing you again? But why haven't you changed at all, and I … I'm not young anymore? Please tell me this isn't a dream … "
Perhaps it was because of excitement, or perhaps it was because of joy, the old Queen couldn't help but reach out her hands, wanting to hold the face in front of her.
Trembling …
This should be a very touching scene. At least for the Queen, who was excited at this moment, the joy at this moment was comparable to the victory of the world war decades ago.
This beautiful woman who changed her life …
"Did I allow you to touch me, Elizabeth?"
His deep blue eyes were just as deep as she remembered them …
However, upon hearing these cold words, Her Majesty seemed to have woken up in an instant. However, an almost instinctive fear still made Her Majesty, who had chatted and laughed with countless leaders and heads of state in the world without changing her expression, shiver.
Her sword was very heavy, and the young Princess had suffered unimaginable pain … At the same time, her pointer was just as heavy. It was like a nightmare that made the young Princess unable to forget until she became the Queen of a country.
But this also made the Queen completely wake up … After all, she wasn't the little girl who didn't know anything.
"Why, your appearance …"
"Now you're the Queen, and at the same time, you know the existence of the knight mechanism … You know the extraordinary power in the world, don't you understand?"
The Queen opened her mouth … This was a possibility she had never thought of.
She needed some time to digest the information, and the room fell into silence.
…
"Miss Lancelot, how old are you this year?"
In her impression, this was the first time she encountered such a question. Of course, it wasn't that she had never encountered such a question before, it was just that she had never been asked this question from the beginning.
There's no need to answer … she thought. "25."
Her eyes suddenly changed at this moment … and keenly captured this moment of separation between thoughts and words. Lancelot's eyes suddenly became sharp, and a short sword slipped out from her sleeve.
Wrong body.
She had already appeared behind Boss Luo, and the short sword went over his shoulder and was placed on his neck. At the same time, her cold voice sounded, "What did you do to me?"
"I think, I really just asked a question." Luoqiu seemed to have a normal reaction … but he couldn't do it.
Not to mention this short sword, even a sharper ice blade would not be able to cut through his skin … Moreover, it was unknown whether or not it would even be possible to cut through his skin.
But if there really came a day when a sharp blade pierced into his body … he would also be reborn in the club. He had already tried to come back from the dead from the very beginning.
"Don't play tricks." Lancelot's voice became colder … the short sword was still held.
Luoqiu smiled at this moment, and calmly said, "It's so strange. Logically speaking, if I really made you feel danger, shouldn't you be more concerned about the situation in the room … After all, there are people you want to protect, and at the same time, there's also my companion who made you feel the danger approaching. Shouldn't it show that ensuring the safety of the person should be the first priority? "
Make a choice.
It seemed to be this saying.
Give up the controlled person to enter the room and deal with the current situation. Follow the queen's safety as the most important thing, or not give up controlling the opponent.
She quickly made a choice.
"If your companions have really threatened my employer's safety, then all the more reason I shouldn't give up on you … At the very least, I should control you. Only then can we be considered on the same starting line, right?"
"That's true."
What made Lancelot surprised was that he agreed with her. What was more inconceivable was that he seemed to have concluded that she really wouldn't make a move. At this moment, he turned around.
The short sword that was originally held on his neck had now become the tip of the sword that was pointed at his throat.
"25 years …" Luoqiu said casually, "Actually, it's longer than my life … Miss Lancelot, in these 25 years, are there any memories worth remembering and treasuring?"
She couldn't help but frown … This was the second strange question.
"I think that you don't need to worry about whether or not there are any treasures in my memories … You should worry about yourself." She chose to make a move in her usual way.
Of course, in order to ensure that the situation wouldn't worsen, she didn't intend to kill him, but she wanted to at least make him quiet down.
His throat was a fatal place, so she didn't intend to attack. But other than that … perhaps his shoulders and thighs would be good targets to attack. At the very least, she wanted to impair his mobility.
She only thought for a moment, and her body's movements were almost synchronized with her thoughts. The moment she came to a conclusion, Lancelot flicked her wrist and stabbed the short sword towards his shoulder blade.
It should have been like this … but the short sword didn't move at all.
It was as if it had stabbed into an invisible wall and was completely stable. It was more like a tightened screw that was fixed in the air!
Lancelot was shocked and let go of the short sword. She instinctively retreated, but her body was unable to move.
And the short sword was fixed in the air … between her and Luoqiu.
Luoqiu looked at Lancelot, then stretched out his hand and 'plucked' the short sword from the air. He played with it in his hand, "For now, I won't bring danger to the one in the room … including my companions."
She naturally didn't believe him, and she didn't even let down her guard … at least, that was what her eyes showed.
But at this time, the short sword in Luoqiu's hand began to melt … It completely melted into a lump of molten steel, then it began to automatically stretch, twist, and change shape … Finally, it became a silver rose.
"If you don't have it, then start creating it now … If you already have it, I hope you can treasure it well." Luoqiu returned the metal rose to Lancelot's hand. To be precise, it was inserted into her empty palm.
She could move now.
Lancelot's body moved at once. But at this time, the door suddenly opened. Miss Maid walked out with a smile, and Her Majesty the Queen sent her off in fear and trepidation … Yes, in fear and trepidation.
"Go back, Elizabeth. Don't ask too much about me … Remember my words. "
"Yes." Her Majesty the Queen nodded.
She really didn't ask more, even though she was very curious about the man who was You Ye's male companion … Of course, she also wanted to know why Lancelot had a metal rose in her hand at this time.
"You don't have to send me off," Miss Maid said again at this time.
Her Majesty the Queen nodded. She looked like an obedient student, which made Lancelot feel even more incredible than Ferrell's easy defeat last night.
Luoqiu didn't intend to talk to Her Majesty the Queen. He just nodded slightly … His arm bent slightly, and You Ye came to his side and held his hand.
"Well, the performance should start soon. Please allow us to leave first, Madam."
Luoqiu concluded with this.
…
"Your Majesty the Queen, may I ask who they are?"
In front of the door … the mysterious man and woman had disappeared in the corridor, but Lancelot's doubts were obviously stronger. She began to doubt her own strength as a member of the Round Table 12.
First, it was Ferrell, then …
Unexpectedly, Her Majesty the Queen shook her head at this time, "Lancelot, I hope you won't tell anyone about what happened today … about me and her."
She frowned.
But Her Majesty the Queen didn't want to say more. Instead, she looked at the metal rose in Lancelot's hand again and smiled, "Oh … Child, for the first time, I feel that the flower suits you very well. Don't you think it would be better for you to change into a lady's dress? "
Without waiting for an answer, Her Majesty the Queen walked into the banquet with a chuckle.
Lancelot looked at the metal rose in her hand … She was stunned.
…
In the corridor.
The boss and his female companion were still walking hand in hand.
"So this is what you meant when you said you had already taken your revenge."
Boss Luo smiled at this time, "It must have left a deep impression on Her Majesty the Queen's childhood … I suddenly want to see you as a strict teacher."
"It's just the request of the Duke of York." Miss Servant Girl smiled, "But as a home teacher, I think it's a pass."
"The former New Orleans girl actually trained the Queen of Great Britain by herself, um …" Luo Qiu shook his head. He didn't know who had such a bad taste.
Miss Servant Girl didn't say anything about this. She smiled and said, "Master, did you have a good chat with No. 31?"
"I hope she can wake up later … After all, this time, I didn't come to look for her specially. It's a coincidence to meet her." Luoqiu muttered, "Let's wait and see … After all, the boss who disturbs the employee's vacation will probably be hated."
"Then, cancel her right for the next vacation." Miss Servant Girl said lightly.
