Chapter 548 Roman Holiday
I wonder if it’s because of the advance rehearsal or because Ellie has the qualities of a king?
The challenge of discussing state affairs with ministers and making decisions was a complete success.
During the wars with Purgatory, Grand Duke Vladimir and the orcs, many things happened in the White Kingdom, which the ministers were able to solve for the most part on their own. What required the White King to make decisions were actually the pensions and subsidies for the sacrificed soldiers and the follow-up handling of the Wisteria Kingdom.
Ellie and Berlan had discussed these issues, so they were not a big deal.
After all the ministers left, Ellie waved her hand to let the secretary leave as well, and then she turned from a majestic king into an unknown creature slouching on the throne.
But Ellie still raised her chin proudly and looked at her body: "How is it? My performance is up to standard, right?"
Boran, who was using Ellie's body, could only nod lovingly: "There are indeed no flaws. You did a great job. However, it will definitely be hard to keep playing the role well. You have to pay more attention."
Ellie blinked her eyes and then said, "Hehe, anyway, I won't have any problems during this period, so... Sister, you can relax during this period."
Ellie and Bolan lost their parents when they were young. When the royal family and the country were in turmoil, Bolan stepped forward to take responsibility for everything, became king, and stabilized the national situation and the status of the royal family.
Ellie wondered what kind of determination and price it would take for her sister to become king at such a young age.
But she was well aware of how much her sister had sacrificed to protect the country, maintain the royal family and take care of herself.
When Ellie went out to look for the artifact, it was also to help her sister.
My sister has worked so hard as the White King for so long and she probably hasn't had a moment to relax.
Now that I can take on the hard work for my sister, she can obviously relax for a while.
It also creates some opportunities for Rand.
Let her husband advance the progress in winning over her "brother-in-law".
Of course, the most important thing is to let my sister relax.
Bolan has given so much for herself. Now Ellie feels very happy that he can share some of the burden with her sister and let her sister relax. She is very glad that she can share the burden with her sister.
"I still think it's best for me to provide you with some support at any time." Bolan stroked his forehead, "I've been through this for so many years, I don't need a little rest."
Ellie sat up straight, "How dare you! I am the White King Bolan. This is an order. Even if you are my sister, you must obey my orders. Now I order you to rest!"
The White King does not have much qualification to order Ellie around, and now Ellie is actually a member of the Nicholas family.
Bolan looked at Ellie making serious expressions with her body and said helplessly: "Then you should pay attention to it. If you have any questions, use the magic pigeon to contact us."
Then Bolan gave Rand some more instructions before leaving.
"Is there anything fun nearby?" Rand asked.
Bolan closed his eyes and thought for a while, then said: "I have only been to the Colosseum, but you should have been there."
"Then forget about the fun stuff. If you want to relax, how about just strolling around normally?" Rand asked.
"It's all right. I'll listen to you." Bolan said it was all right. She was not very good at resting, but Rand seemed to be quite good at it, so she decided to assign the right person to the right position.
So Rand and Bolan walked down the street.
The welcoming ceremony for the knights of the Order is underway, but the streets are no longer decorated with lights and colors, so as not to affect normal life.
However, looking at the expressions of the people, you can still feel everyone's joy for the victory.
Rand and Bolan were walking down the street.
Rand's plan was to go through the normal dating process of traveling, relaxing while taking Bolan to experience a life different from that of a king.
The identity of the White King is not a shackle for Bolan, but it would be interesting to experience some different identities.
Therefore, the first step is to find a shop to drink milk tea.
Of course, this world does not have the kind of milk tea that Rand had in his previous life, but there are low-end versions of milk and tea, at least in the holiday villa.
As for this, there is a way even if Rand is not here. Rand worked as a part-time bartender in his previous life and has some experience in the preparation of milk tea.
After walking around and finding that there was indeed no milk tea, Rand decided to show off his skills.
Rand easily got the raw materials at the market. Milk tea is actually made by adding milk and tea. You can add some caramel, but it doesn’t matter if you don’t add it. If you can’t make it well and still want to add it, you can choose to buy ready-made one.
Rand developed the method of making syrup a long time ago. After development, it can now be bought in the royal city of the White Kingdom. The price is not cheap, but Rand has long passed the time when he needs to consider the price of such things.
Rand began to show off his mixing skills, and soon the milk tea was ready. Rand took a spoon and tasted it. The taste was a little different from the milk tea in his previous life, but the taste was not bad, and it was good overall.
"Add some ice," Rand said with a wink.
In an instant, the milk tea cup was stained with frost.
Hot milk tea is also a very good drink, but Rand is not very good at making hot drinks, so he decided to use ice as the finishing process.
"Please." Rand presented his work.
Bolan, who had watched the whole process, picked up the cup of milk tea, took a sip, squinted his eyes and smiled, "It tastes good, I like it very much."
Of course, Rand also made his own portion. He took a sip of the final version of milk tea from his cup, and then came out of the kitchen of someone else's house that he and Bolan had occupied.
Then it’s time to go shopping for clothes.
Ellie has a good taste in clothes, and many of the styles of clothes in the Sanctuary Garment Store are designed by Ellie.
Neither Bolan nor Ellie is short of clothes, but that doesn't stop them from going out shopping for clothes.
The White Kingdom, especially the Royal City, has long opened up trade routes with the resort. The White Kingdom has also built many factories to provide technical support to the resort.
Of course, there are also ready-made clothing stores in the royal city today.
Rand and Bolan entered the clothing store and were immediately recognized.
The bodies of Ellie used by Rand and Bolan are both very famous in the White Kingdom. Although the two did not stay in the White Kingdom's royal city for a long time, due to the large number of followers, there will always be people who can recognize them.
"Duke Lander, Madam Ellie." The female manager of the clothing store personally received them. "Excuse me, are you two here for inspection?"
Rand and Bolan were both holding a cup of milk tea at this time. Rand was already accustomed to being noticed and treated seriously. In theory, Bolan would be used to it too, but now he looked a little nervous.
"No, we just came to see if there are any suitable clothes to buy." Rand directly stated his purpose.
The female manager was a little surprised, and it was not surprising. Nobles like Rand and Ellie naturally did not need to go out to the clothing store to buy clothes. There would naturally be full-time tailors who specialized in making clothes. But it was also possible that such big shots were interested in trying new styles of clothing, right? After all, the concept of the clothing store was originally proposed by these two adults.
The female store manager enthusiastically introduced several best-selling ready-to-wear clothing styles to the two men, and then Rand and Bolan went into the fitting rooms respectively.
Soon, the leisure form of Rand and the leisure form of "Ellie" appeared.
Rand leaned over to Bolan's ear and whispered, "Is there anything to be nervous about?"
Bolan shook his head gently: "No."
There was certainly no one present who was worth the White King's nervousness. Ellie was lively and changeable by nature, and Bolan did not have to worry about his identity being suspected because of inappropriate behavior.
It's just that she wasn't used to the identity of Mrs. Rand, even when using Ellie's body.
The female manager looked at the two men's clothes and couldn't help but praise them, saying things like "a talented man and a beautiful woman", which made Rand and Bolan feel a little embarrassed.
The two changed several sets of clothes, but finally left the clothing store in casual style.
Bolan looked at the beautiful women's casual clothes she was wearing. Now she looked a bit like a young lady going out for a trip.
At this time, the royal city of the White Kingdom has not yet seen spring flowers blooming, but the young and beautiful blue-eyed beauty standing in the sun looks as if spring flowers are really blooming.
Since Bolan had to maintain his male identity, he certainly had no chance to wear girl's clothes. But now he finally had the chance to experience it.
After coming out of the clothing store, Bolan, who was a little nervous at first, quickly regained his composure, and the nervousness of being addressed as Madam quickly dissipated.
The streets of the royal city were still dotted with petals that had fallen into the dust and mud. The petals were no longer bright, but when the girl stepped on her small leather boots and touched the petals lightly with her toes, the petals seemed to regain their brightness.
Rand also wanted to take the beautiful Berland to visit some clothing stores, but was rejected by Berland.
So the two of them just walked on the street again.
This commercial street is quite prosperous. Due to the cooperation with the holiday resort, many specialties of the holiday resort are also sold here.
You can see adventurers, knights and even nobles strolling along this commercial street.
Of course, there are many couples among these people shopping.
This world does not advocate free love, especially the aristocracy does not advocate it, but people still care about family relationships after marriage. At least in the White Country, it is not too common for couples to find lovers after getting married and having children.
Therefore, there are still many couples who go shopping or do other things together to balance family relationships.
Rand and Bolan could see many noble couples on the streets, and occasionally they would meet great nobles.
For example, the two people in front of him now are a couple from the Snow Wolf Family, the Duke's family of the White Country. The Snow Wolf Duke nodded to Rand and said, "My child is under your care."
The heir of the Snow Wolf Family was defeated by Rand in the arena, and then followed Rand to the Tall Wood Kingdom to stop the orcs, and made great contributions.
The Duchess of Snow Wolf and Ellie were obviously very familiar with each other. The old woman let go of her husband's hand, walked in front of Bolan, and helped Bolan straighten his collar: "Oh my little Ellie, you are a big beauty now."
After saying this, the kind old woman stared at Bolan's face and couldn't stop smiling. She had been Ellie's caregiver for a period of time when Ellie was very young, and provided shelter when Ellie lost her parents at a young age. The Snow Wolf Family has always been a loyal supporter of the royal family.
Mrs. Snow Wolf looked at the handsome Rand, pushed him aside a little, and leaned close to Bolan's ear: "Little Ellie, why are you so far away from your husband? Are you having a conflict? Or are you just embarrassed? This won't work. If you can't stay attractive to your husband..."
The elderly and kind old woman began to teach Bolan various ways to win a man's heart.
Bolan has a good impression of the Snow Wolf couple, but teaching her the method to capture Rand's heart at this time is really... Bolan feels that she can't use it. She feels that even if it is really Ellie here, she can't use it. Rand and Ellie have a good relationship, and Bolan can clearly feel it.
Otherwise, the couple would not be able to unite to deal with me.
Mrs. Snow Wolf spoke more and more excitedly, citing classics, analyzing and expanding, and Bolan had to listen awkwardly. Mrs. Snow Wolf lowered her voice, but Bolan knew that Rand had good hearing and would definitely be able to hear it clearly.
The Duke of Snow Wolf looked at the somewhat embarrassed "Ellie", Rand who was concentrating with his ears perked up, and his wife who was talking nonstop and no longer had the demeanor of a noble lady. He had no choice but to step forward and pull his wife away, then apologized to Rand and Ellie: "Sorry to bother you, you young people should have fun and stroll around."
Then he took his wife away.
Bolan felt a little embarrassed and walked to Rand. The two of them had always kept a distance from each other, which seemed to be easy for others to notice.
Although Rand just felt that Mrs. Snow Wolf was too worried.
"Are there any activities tonight?" After a fight with the Snow Wolf couple, it was already getting late.
Rand had originally arranged a movie-watching event, and the resort did not stop producing documentary films during Rand's absence. After all, this was Rand's basic strategy and cultural strategy.
Rand had originally planned to take Bolan to see the new Liuying movie, but now it seems that it is not appropriate.
It's not that there is not enough time, but it seems that Bolan is a little worried about Ellie, and Rand is also worried that Ellie will be a little tired. Let's just stop here today and see what happens tomorrow. There's no rush.
It's time to go back and rest.
Bolan and Rand returned to the palace, where the lights were still on.
But now the White King is Ellie instead of Bolan.
The two met Ellie again. Ellie was sitting on the throne with her feet up and looking through documents. She looked quite bookish. Ellie looked up at Rand and asked in reproach, "Why are you back now?"
Ellie had planned an ultimate combination of strategies for Rand, but she didn't expect Rand to come back like this today.
Rand explained helplessly: "She is worried about you."
Bolan asked, "How is it? Is there anything I can help you with?"
Ellie puffed out her chest proudly, "Of course it's no problem."
"Then you should get enough rest." Bolan believed that Ellie would not talk nonsense. Ellie would definitely not mess around with national affairs, and it was impossible for her to conceal things that she could not handle. Now that Ellie said there was no problem, then there was no problem. At most, it would be a little harder and require more energy.
"Of course." Ellie nodded, "But now there is still a problem."
"What?" Bolan asked.
"How are we going to rest at night?"
