Devil’s Son-in-Law

“It was indeed an early reunion,” Lambice quickly calmed down, revealing a shallow smile: “I know the messenger's identity is a bit sudden and suspicious... but I wonder, why did you see me at first sight? My metamorphosis is the old Dean, Professor Carlisle, and even the mighty might not have been able to see through it. Don't tell me, that weak boy already possessed holy or even transcended holy power? ”

“I hope your guess… or call it blessing to be true, unfortunately, the fact is that I was almost killed by that bloody guy with a scroll, and then unfortunately by some big man's aftermath.” Chen Rui pointed to his ragged face and sighed, "Let me tell you the truth, the reason I saw through you is because I got a special ability, you can think of it as the genius of an instrument maker for certain fields. In fact, this talent does not completely pierce the disguise of deformation technique. Most importantly, you gave me the familiarity, as if I saw the one who liked to read books quietly in the library, but sometimes there were some unexpected little pranks... little girl. ”

Most of Arthur's memory fragments are now intact, and Rambis was his primary sister at Starlight College, and as the royal nobility of the two great empires, the two of them intersect quite a bit. The relationship, though ordinary, is also an old acquaintance.

The last sentence let Rambis' eyes sweep away from his memories and he smiled: "I don't think it's all about the genius of an ‘instrument maker’, do you? His Excellency Master Arthur. ”

Chen Rui also laughed, took out a bottle of wine and two glasses, poured her a glass of wine, raised her glass: “Life is different, the master is just a lucky one, the biggest lucky one in seven years. ”

“Seven years ago, a little girl who didn't know anything was almost twenty years old, and that boy who was obsessed with Veronica became today's famous mentor," Rambis took the glass, teared a small sip of wine and looked up at him, “Can you tell me exactly what happened in the seven years you disappeared? ”

Chen Rui faintly said: “It's just a struggle to survive in a strange place. Fortunately, it's still alive. ”

“So, seven years later, you're back in everyone's sight? ”

“What, shouldn't I?” Chen Rui looked at Lambis with a smile and finally got to the point?

“There's nothing that should or shouldn't happen," Lambys shook his head and put the cup down: “I'm just a little emotional and the plan doesn't keep up. ”

Chen Rui deliberately frowned: “Her Royal Highness means… my presence has ruined one of your plans? ”

“Can I be honest? ”

“Of course," said Rui Chen, “I'm sure you didn't come here just to talk to me or meet me in advance. ”

"When I was in college, I was just a little girl, like you said, who liked to read in the library quietly, make fun of people from time to time, and had dreamed of love in books, but didn't think too much about life or plans. After the empire announced my union with you, my life was suddenly set so that a little girl could not understand what love was, to marry a man who definitely did not love herself, you… could not understand that feeling. ”

“Perhaps there's another feeling in your mind, because the woman you're obsessed with eventually marries someone else.” Rambis smiled ridiculously: "In fact, as a princess of the Blue Glow Empire, political marriage is inevitable. Honestly, I'm not sick of you, and it's probably better to marry you than to marry those nasty guys. Just when I confessed to my life, you, as my fiancé, disappeared, and this disappearance was for seven years. I've been through a lot in the last seven years, and if it hadn't been for the tremendous pressure from your father, I'd have been ‘married' once in a whirlpool of interests, like a cargo! If you don't show up one day, or if Rex doesn't let go one day, I'll have to defend the title of" fiancée "to be a" living widow "until the end of my life! Countless rumors, sights, conspiracies... almost crushed me, I was unwilling and unwilling to accept such a fate! ”

Chen Ruimeo listened and felt the emotional fluctuations of Rambis. Half a minute ago he asked: “So you have your own plan? ”

“Nice, I swear to God I'll take control of my life! I won't let anyone manipulate my own destiny anymore!” Rambis grinned, "and you suddenly appeared seven years after my disappearance, as I rebuilt my life, reprogrammed my life, and proceeded step by step according to my plan! ”

“I see, my appearance, especially the timing, was a mistake," Chen Rui stood up, took a few steps and sighed.

For Rambis, “Arthur” has become a redundant man.

“I acknowledge that the reappearance of you, a better and more resourceful lord than I imagined, a famous master of the world, and a very promising heir to the next Dragon King - does not mean, however, that I will give up my aspirations and pursuits and place my whole life in the hands of someone other than myself as an accessory, vase or even cargo! Never!”

Chen Rui nodded, looking at Rambis' excitement: “I see what you're up to today. ”

“I'm sorry, it's a little off,” Lambys took a sip of wine, took a few deep breaths, recovered his mood, glanced over a hint of discoloration: “You're so calm? Calm down and surprise me, it looks like you've really changed a lot. ”

“Time and environment can change a lot of things, so can you," Rui Chen said, “I'd like to formally ask you, are you really unwilling to accept this marriage? ”

“You should know the answer,” Lambys frowned and gauged Chen Rui for a while. "Can I take this question as a good start to solving the problem? ”

“I just want to be very clear about your attitude. ”

“I don't want to!” The answer to Rambis is very positive.

This unexpected answer allowed Chen Rui to take a deep breath and turn back slowly. In fact, Rambis did not know that the “fiancé” in front of her was the one she wanted to solicit, and understood her pursuit and perseverance better than she imagined.

“So, what do you want me to do? ”

Lambys, who thought the other party would refuse, was shocked and prepared to say all kinds of things without the use of force, and was surprised: “Did you... agree? ”

“Why object?” Chen Ruizhan stalled, “even if I didn't say yes, you had a lot of plans, I don't believe you would come here without any preparation or certainty. Most importantly, marriage is not just a political chip for me, but a real life event, encompassing ‘emotion’, ‘responsibility’ and ‘commitment’ … it does not include 'reluctance’. ”

Rambis silenced for a moment and suddenly revealed an inspiring smile: “This kind of thing looks a little like the ‘Arthur’. Looks like your two female guardians have the real happiness that many women envy, and maybe Miss Veronica will have a good ending too? ”

“Hope so.” Chen Rui is reluctant to say more on this issue: “There is nothing in the world that has been gained without help. Now that there is a consensus, we can talk about the deal with peace of mind and be truly open. ”

Rambis nodded: “You, what do you want? ”

Chen Rui sat down without circling and said what he wanted: "The Holy Grail. ”

With a shock, Rambisu's eyes burst with a burning light, staring closely at Chen Rui's eyes, which is actually the condition... “Arthur” came to the Blue Yaw Empire to “greet”, there was simply another plot!

Until she came here, she had a preconceived notion of how to convince Arthur to abandon the marriage and was prepared to deal with all the difficulties, but now suddenly she realized that she had come here for purposes other than marriage, and her mood had become complicated.

“No wonder the Cardinal Graham will visit Dido at this time...” Lambis suddenly figured out a lot of things and came out, “Are you from the Church of Light? ”

Chen Ruiyi praised the speed of Bis' reaction. In fact, Grahlin's visit to the Blue Yaw Empire was indeed a plan agreed upon when Raphael arrived in the territory of Jinyao, in order to plot the Holy Grail. Grahlin was still quite accurate in terms of time, although “Arthur” 's accidental “injury” in the city of Jagda really surprised the Cardinal.

“Why do you think I'm from the church? ”

“I have information that the magic game technology that prevails in the world is most likely from the Valley of Dragons, and although I don't know if this information is accurate, it is well known that you and the Church must have a close stake in the fact that the equipment of the magic game is made in the territory of Golden Yaw and promoted by the Church. And seven years after you disappeared, your first appearance was accompanied by the Lord Glalin, so I have every reason to assume that you are a member of the church, and even if you disappeared for the past seven years, it's probably related to the church. ”

“Praiseworthy reasoning.” Especially in the last sentence, Chen Rui revealed his mysterious smile, "but the center of gravity we talked about seems to be off, so come back to the Holy Grail. ”

“This condition is impossible! Don't you think that's a little obvious?” Rambis shook his head resolutely: “The Holy Grail is the highest sacred thing in the Empire. I have only taken the title of a princess, and the value cannot be equated with the Holy Grail! ”

“You're wrong, the Grail has so much power - it's just a dead thing, and in my opinion, you're worth so much more than the Grail.” Chen Rui smiled, “Rambis. Hebrew, the finest Hebrew royalty of the younger generation. The only one who can barely compete with you is Prince Victor. You have rounded up nearly 30% of the voices of Congress. The Pokémon impress you quite well. There are also many strong people in the diocese who are supporting you. The talent and power of control of your own people alone is not so small. For example… If I insist on marrying you, these powers will be completely out of your grasp, except for some death and loyalty. In fact, as far as I know, after the Blue Glow Empire re-announces our marriage, the power at your disposal has been quite shocked. ”

“Looks like you know a lot about me.” The light in Rambis' eyes faded a little, and "Arthur” was not only talking about her ability to reveal herself in the open, especially “The Collection", her secret weapon, but was broken.

“It's just some necessary knowledge of my fiancée… don't tell me that you don't know anything about what happened when I got back.” Chen Rui's serious eyes do not appear to have a smile, "your ambition is very ambitious, but the difficulty is certainly beyond imagination. You have been using the pressure exerted by Rex the Great on the Blue Yaw Empire to block the gaze around you and pave the way for your progress step by step. Now my re-emergence does put you in a dilemma, but it's also a test, an opportunity. I can fully cooperate with your plan and garner the support of the Church of Light for you, and the road ahead will be clearer. As for the Holy Grail… the Church of Light is the main one, you just have to play some key roles. ”

“Just like that?” Rambis saw him missing, frowned slightly, and asked.

“Just like that. ”

Rambis was caught in contemplation and asked half the time: "I can't seem to find a reason to refuse this kind of good deal. Are you sure you want me to get support from the church? ”

“Sure, Grahlin is in the pavilion, I can arrange for you to meet and talk in detail," Chen Rui answered without false reflection, "not only that, I know you have always wanted to cage the Morden family, in this incident of the magician Tallinn, the unexpected death of Ed, the bastard son of King Kovalonte, the Lilde and Morden families in great trouble, is also a good opportunity for you, and I can play some unexpected roles in this regard. ”

“Your abilities… To be precise, it surprised me that you changed in seven years," Rambis took a deep look at him and smiled, “Perhaps it was a mistake for me to give up this marriage? ”

“There is still time to repent," Chen Rui shrugged. “Do you intend to retain this power? ”

“No.” Rambis' eyes were steadfast, "I had come to this point and would never look back. I want to take control of my destiny, not someone else. I'm sorry, including you. This is my path, and I will continue to walk until I have complete control over myself and over the fate of all of the Empire. ”

I am commanded by me, not by man; I am commanded by man, not by God.

This is the real Rambis.

From another perspective, she is somewhat similar to Chen Rui and wants to take control of her own destiny, but she has chosen a different path.

However, by the time she truly has complete control of the Empire, perhaps she will find herself lost in what she once wanted to have. Chen Rui thought of Katherine, thinking of Rex, somehow had a sighing feeling in her heart. Anyway, as she said herself, this was her chosen path, and she would keep walking.

Chen Rui took a deep breath and lifted the glass: “I admire your perseverance and respect your decision, so... wish you success, Your Highness Rambis. ”

“‘Our’ success, Your Highness. ”

The two glasses came together.
