Chapter 163: Money in the Court and Good Things to Do (I)
This woman is none other than Melina, the queen of the main palace of the Fledgling Dragon Empire, and is also the biological mother of Prince Ötz. Although she is already the mother of a teenage child, Queen Melina is still beautiful when she is well maintained.
When she entered her son's bedchamber just now, Queen Melina heard the mournful cry of the maid, and out of compassion, Melina came in and questioned her son.
"Queen Mother, that slut woman hurt Erchen when she smeared medicine on Erchen, and Erchen's buttocks are now sore to death." Prince Oates sued first, looking aggrieved.
Queen Melina only then noticed the wound on her son's buttocks, and suddenly forgot about the plea for the maid just now, and sat down on the bed and asked anxiously, "My son, who made you like this?" ”
"It's a lowly adventurer, but it's okay, I've put him in prison, and by the way, let people treat him well." Speaking of Lin Yue, Prince Oates first flashed a fierce look on his face, and then said with a smug face.
"Adventurers?" Queen Melina is a beautiful woman, an adventurer who is different from their natives, and although her strength is average, she has many strange abilities.
Hearing that her son had imprisoned an adventurer, Queen Melina reacted with a delicate face and said, "Oates, are you causing trouble everywhere again?" ”
As for her son's character, as a mother, how could Queen Melina not know? She has heard a lot of rumors about her son bullying and dominating the market.
"Queen Mother, it was the adventurer who ripped the retainer off his horse, and he did not behead him for such a crime, what is a little prison?" Prince Oates pouted.
"Immediately? You say you're going horseback riding again? When Queen Melina heard this, she noticed that the focus was not on the adventurer, but on another matter, "Didn't I say that horseback riding is forbidden in the royal city, it is a rule set by your father, even your princes. ”
"I know, it's not because Baroque gave me a purebred snow rabbit horse, I just want to see if it's as rumored to be a thousand miles old, so I can't help but test ride." Prince Oates said aggrieved.
"Baroque, you say?" Queen Melina's brows furrowed even deeper, Baroque's full name is Baroque. Arman, the son of Princess Gulya, is also the eleventh heir to the throne of the empire.
"Ötzi." Queen Melina suddenly stopped her son and said in a stern tone: "I said a few times that you are not allowed to associate with that woman's son, why don't you listen?" ”
"What, isn't Baroque my brother? What does it matter if I play with him. Prince Oates was puzzled by his mother's nagging.
"Anyway, I don't allow you to come and go, you just have to listen to the queen mother." Queen Melina said bitterly.
"I ...... Got it. Prince Ötzi nodded, but in a tone he was clearly reluctant.
Seeing this, Queen Melina didn't know what her son was thinking, sighed lightly, and was about to explain to her son, but at this moment, someone outside suddenly shouted urgently.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, it's terrible, it's not good!"
Prince Ötzi, who was lying on the bed, was embarrassed at first, and then shouted with a calm face: "Get out of here for me, don't shout here!" ”
After a while, a small servant crawled in outside the door, this person's name was George, and he was Prince Ötz's martial arts teacher and bodyguard.
"Your Royal Highness, it's not ...... big deal," George still screamed when he walked in, and when he saw Queen Melina sitting there, he swallowed the second half of the sentence into his stomach, and then said cautiously: "Your ...... Why are you here? ”
"Are you surprised that I came to my son?" Queen Melina said lightly.
"No, that's not what the villain meant." George laughed dryly.
"Don't talk nonsense, why was you so flustered just now?" Prince Oates, who was lying on the bed, cursed.
Only then did George remember what was going on, and hurriedly said, "It's like this, Your Royal Highness, the adventurer you caught today, is in prison...... ......"
"What's wrong? Did you already kill him? Aren't adventurers immortal? Could it be that all the rumors are false? Prince Oates laughed.
"No, it's actually the guy who came out of prison." George said with a sad face.
"What?" Prince Ötzi's face changed drastically, and when he heard this, he shouted, "How did you do it? Why did he let him run? Bastard, don't send someone to arrest him quickly, escaping from prison is a big crime, and if he is caught, he will be sentenced to three months immediately! ”
"No...... Not so, Your Highness the Prince! George's expression became more and more ugly, and he said in a trembling voice: "That person is not a prison escape, he ...... He was acquitted. ”
"You...... What did you say? Acquittal? "Now Prince Oates can't calm the bird, how can he be acquitted?
……
Time back to about half an hour ago, the jailer in charge of guarding the prison slowly walked towards the cell where Lin Yue was being held, since just now, the screams of the cell have been ringing non-stop, presumably the adventurer who offended Prince Oates should only have half a life left, right?
"But then again, that scorpion guy was too ruthless, right? I hope you don't kill people, after all, it's just a rumor that adventurers have immortality......"
The jailer muttered something as he walked, then pulled out the key and inserted it into the keyhole.
"Click!"
With this in mind, the jailer unlocked the cell and walked inside, but he was dumbfounded.
"It's so slow, it's actually made Lao Tzu wait so long." Lin Yue sat there and smiled at the jailer.
The jailer looked Lin Yue up and down, and found that he didn't have the slightest injury at all, and he was still sitting well, uh, wait, sitting? There are no chairs in the cell, what is he sitting on?
The jailer's gaze shifted downward, and his pupils shrank as if he had seen a ghost.
Lin Yue was sitting on a group of prisoners stacked as high as a hill, wasn't it a poisonous scorpion that was pressed at the bottom?
It seems that the poisonous scorpion was defeated by the adventurer in front of him, and the scream just now turned out to be made by the poisonous scorpion itself, and the jailer suddenly realized.
But the scorpions, their current appearance is too miserable, right? All the blood was stained, the limbs were twisted, and at a glance I knew that it was a serious fracture, and it was estimated that I was about to die.
"Smack!"
Lin Yue jumped down from the "chair" and walked in front of the jailer.
"You...... What do you want to do? The jailer was so frightened that he hurriedly retreated to the outside of the cell, and at the same time drew the saber at his waist, but he was so frightened that his hands kept trembling, and he could only cry out with courage: "Do you want to escape from prison?" I'll tell you, escaping from prison is a felony in the Empire, and if you catch it, you will be killed. ”
"Don't worry, I'm not trying to kill you, I'm not trying to escape from prison, I have something I want to ask you." Lin Yue said with a harmless expression.
