19 ~ Playing (Part 1)
"You, who can explain to this king, what is going on here?" Victoria, who had just received the news, stood in front of the throne with a heavy expression, overlooking the servants who were kneeling below.
"The two princesses didn't return all night, and Ben received the news after a day. I want to ask you, what are you doing on the day when the two princesses disappeared??" Victoria couldn't calm down.
If she hadn't noticed that the Dark Guard did not give her timely feedback as usual, Victoria would probably still be in the dark.
"It's my dereliction of duty. If you find something wrong, you should check it immediately." Yana's head maid kneeled in front of Victoria reverently, her shoulders trembling. "What are the three strengths and two weaknesses of Your Highness Ruo Yana, the slave is willing to balance it with life"
"Okay, get up, what's the use of talking about this now? Could it be that if this king kills you, Yana will be able to appear in front of this king unharmed." Victoria said coldly, taking a deep breath.
"Solanya's maid, where is she now?"
"You mean Miss Ke'er? Miss Ke'er's words are waiting outside the palace now."
"Why don't you let her in?"
"This!" The Imperial Guard stopped talking, carefully glanced at Victoria's face, and whispered. "Including the servants of the eldest princess, you are not allowed to enter the palace without authorization. This is what Your Majesty has personally stipulated."
Victoria was at a loss for words, and after thinking about it, it seemed that there was such a thing, and she immediately asked. "How long has she been waiting at the door?"
"Your Majesty, Miss Ke'er came here yesterday and said she had something important, but we didn't let her in because of your order. After all, you were not at the court at the time."
"Let her in now."
After a while, a small blond maid followed the soldier into the palace. From the way she squeezed her cuffs, it could be seen that she was very anxious at this moment, and the dark circles around her eyes could be seen. She didn't sleep well last night.
"Princess Solanya's maid, and Ke'er, the daughter of the viscount, sees Her Majesty." Ke'er raised her skirt and performed a standard monarch and minister ceremony.
"Not much to say, Ke'er, do you know where Solanya and the others went?"
"I know, just yesterday, Her Royal Highness Solanya received a strange note. She didn't tell Ke'er what was in it, so she let Ke'er pretend that nothing happened. After that, Her Royal Highness Solanya disappeared, but In a hurry, I wanted to inform Your Majesty about this news, but the guards blocked me."
"!?" Both the old housekeeper standing beside Victoria and the servants kneeling under the throne were stunned at this moment.
For no other reason, Ke'er's words to Victoria have already brought blame.
Dare to blame the Queen in front of so many people, this is too much courage.
Victoria closed her eyes slightly, how could she not hear the blame in Ke'er's words. "Get up, it's useless to say this now. Do you know which direction Solanya is going?"
"Yes, but there are so many mountains on the outskirts of the city. It has been two days since His Highness Solanya disappeared. Ke'er doesn't know if she is still in the mountains."
"It's all the old slave's fault." The old butler felt ashamed. "I had already noticed that Her Royal Highness Yana was following Her Highness Solanya, but I didn't pay much attention to it. After Princess Solanya finished the matter, the old slave returned."
"This matter doesn't care about Mr. Butler's business. To be able to deal with the secret guards I sent out so silently, the other party must have been planning for a long time." Victoria frowned slightly, knowing that the current situation was urgent, she immediately mobilized the Imperial Army to go to the mountains. Find the two princesses.
The Imperial Guards also knew that this matter was of great importance, and even the Queen herself dispatched herself.
At this moment, somewhere deep in the mountains.
"Captain, it's not good, there is news from the eyeliner that the Vampire Queen has noticed the disappearance of her two daughters, and she can't hide it! The forbidden army of the blood clan is heading towards the deep mountain."
"Continue to search, and I won't retreat until these two little loaches are found!" The bandit leader vowed not to give up. "The two of them must be nearby. The smell of the blood of the blood clan is very familiar to me, and it must be nearby!"
"But boss, the blood clan's Imperial Army has been fully deployed. Judging from this momentum, I am afraid that the Vampire Queen has come in person, leaving us not much time."
"You kid is really useless, you are afraid of being like this before you see the blood queen, like a man?" The bandit leader scoffed at his subordinates who had already given up their minds.
"Don't forget the gift that the Queen has given to us. If you don't complete the task she gave us, do you have the face to go back??"
"I"
"Even if it's the Vampire Queen? Can't we run away if we can't beat us? Wait for those two cubs, even if they run into the Vampire Queen, they'll be captured by hand. Don't forget that her two cubs are here with us!"
"Boss! I found a pool of blood here!" The bandit boss frowned when he heard the report from his subordinates and stepped forward to check.
"Yes, although it has been dried, it is indeed the blood of the blood spirit." The bandit leader lowered his head and licked the soil on the ground, smashing it in his mouth.
