Chapter 219 219. Past Promises
"Mom, you better be careful."
"Don't worry, I raised both of you. Give me some trust, okay? I'll be back in a few days."
Under Lowe's gaze, the dragon chariot disappeared into the horizon, and Lowdel had a look of reluctance on his face.
Xiaoyue is already one year old, so you can take her to visit relatives.
With this as an excuse, Evelyn said she would take her to see Duke Dafen and determine the heir.
The two had no reason to stop it, they just hoped Evelin could be more reliable.
Even at her age, she still doesn’t have a steady demeanor. It feels like my mother is the same as she was a decade ago.
Perhaps he had spent too much time in deep meditation and had not gained any age? This time, he was accompanied by the head maid Triss.
With two great masters gone at once, Fulin Fort's defense became a little weaker. But recently, a new master has joined.
Two limit breakers and one formal spellcaster are all valuable combat forces.
Less than a day after Evelyn left, an unexpected guest came to Fulin Castle.
Ai Xin rode on her broom and landed in front of the gate, shouting. The guard standing guard at the gate immediately went upstairs to report.
"Master, City Lord Ai Xin is here to visit!"
"Oh! Tell her to come up!"
The weather was a bit hot and humid, so Lovi was too lazy to go downstairs to greet him. Soon, Ai Xin flew directly to the roof and ran down the stairs.
"My Lord, you are so leisurely!"
"Good afternoon, ma'am."
Ai Xin rolled up her sleeves, revealing her white wrists. With an unhappy look on her face, she moved a stool and sat next to Luo Wei: "I heard that the maids have become mothers. When will you fulfill your promise to me?"
Luo Wei put down his pen, looked up and glanced at her: "It's OK now, do you want it now?"
Ai Xin's face flushed: "Let's go, who's afraid of who?"
"Why did you come here suddenly? Can Donglin City let go?" Lo Wei changed the subject.
"There is a white deer! I usually don't care much about it. The teacher came to my place yesterday and gave me a flying broom. Your daughter is so cute! I want one too."
Ai Xin chirped and winked, almost making it clear.
Knowing he couldn't escape, Lowe found an empty room on the sixth floor.
After a while, both of them were covered in sweat.
"How come it's so fast? Only a quarter of an hour?"
"It will definitely take more than a quarter of an hour. I didn't even schedule a time for you to come here, and I didn't make any preparations at all."
"Well, it's all my fault."
Lovey said nothing, took out a silk scarf from his pocket and helped wipe it, which was stained red.
This woman is so pitiful. She is in her thirties and has never touched a man.
Should I praise her for her self-discipline or laugh at her for being unwanted?
I don’t know how I maintain my looks, but I still look so young.
Her voluptuous and mature queen style is even better than Su Ya's.
"Thank you, today I finally got what I wanted." Ai Xin grabbed Lovey's restless hand.
"I will keep my word." Lowe said seriously.
"I will come to see you once a week from now on. It's faster to ride a broom anyway."
"You don't need to meditate deeply, and you don't need to manage Donglin City?"
"Of course, after I finish my deep meditation."
"Every winter, I also have to meditate and practice, and we have to wait until the weather is warmer next year to meet."
In the bathtub, the two of them chatted casually. The white ceramic bathtub was just right for two people.
However, not long after washing, my body became dirty again.
The second time, the time was extended to quarter of an hour.
Ai Xin did not stay for dinner and left quietly, leaving Luo Wei alone, looking out the window with disappointment after his joy vanished.
In the first twenty years of her life, Ai Xin was a very important person, far closer than any of the maids are now.
Unfortunately, the relationship between the two is no longer what it used to be.
Maybe it’s because of the distance. Morningside City, Black Fort.
Evelyn's arrival was received with a reception far beyond previous standards.
Duke Dafen put down his official duties, came out to greet them, and lifted his great-granddaughter above his head.
Yue was her direct descendant, so naturally she valued him to the utmost and wished she could bring him up by her side and raise him personally.
"That's right! She is the future hope of the Principality of Sheen. I will pass my position to this child."
"It's too early to say that now. We don't even know this child's talent."
"You haven't tested it?"
"I am a spellcaster. I have no knowledge of martial artists."
"Tell me, when will she start to run? Is she running now?"
"She runs really fast."
Duke Dafen bent down and put his great-granddaughter on the ground. Yue was wearing small shoes and walked steadily.
"Run, run," Evelyn shouted.
Yue understood what she meant, and he staggered forward faster, his short legs moving very fast.
"People who can run around one year old usually have good bones, not to mention they can run so fast!" Duke Dafen hugged his great-granddaughter from behind: "Not bad, you are so strong at such a young age."
In order to avoid outsiders from having any extra thoughts, Fiona dyed Yue's hair pure black before coming.
Duke Dafen obviously didn't notice, so Evelyn naturally didn't say anything.
"According to the regulations, all direct descendants will have their own fiefdoms. Have you decided on the location?"
"You should give all the territory north of the Blue River to Yue."
"That's fine with me. It's okay if you want more. But can you manage it? That land has a population of 300,000."
"Indeed, we lack management talent over there."
"Then why do you have such a big appetite?"
"It's not about building a defense line. With the Blue River fortress, only a small number of troops are needed to ensure the safety of the rear territory."
"Yes, you have a good vision, but who are you guarding against? Or do you think I can't protect you?" Duke Dafen raised his eyebrows.
"It's better to take precautions before they happen. To be honest, you may not be able to withstand the pressure in the future."
Evelin's expression was solemn. She saw a few words in the prediction book.
The words "coming" appeared abruptly on the gold foil.
What is coming? The prediction book only predicts the people and events around the holder.
Evelyn was distressed.
Adventure Town, with a population exceeding 10,000, was given the title of Adventure City.
Since the Goblin Crisis broke out, the entire nation has been armed, and every adult is equipped with a lethal iron weapon.
Most of them are axes, after all, they are more practical. There are more than five hundred people on duty every night.
There are two Limit Breakers stationed in the city, one is the ascetic monk Vando, and the other is the newly promoted strong Celica.
Solid concrete forts stood high on the mounds. Each fort was a fixed artillery position.
There were five steel cannons in total.
It has been tested that it can easily kill third-level creatures.
Under the control of the gunner, a huge diplodocus was tragically killed by a cannonball.
That monster weighs more than fifteen tons and is more than ten meters tall. It usually feeds on forest leaves.
Just because it is close to human habitat, it was targeted and became a target of cannons.
