Chapter 2705 Acting

Sure enough, the leader of the Fort Vicky team, a dwarf brother who looked familiar but could not name him, staggered over with the support of the deputy team leader, another dwarf brother who looked familiar but could not give his name.

Looking at the staggering steps of the two people and smelling the unpleasant smell of alcohol, the commander-in-chief's face became a little more ugly. His steel teeth clenched loudly in his mouth. He was silent for a long time. It was not until the two people walked over with support that he said: : "You two are finally here, but all the flowers I've been waiting for have faded."

When the two dwarves heard this, they blinked their drunken eyes, took a break from the wine, and then replied rudely: "It's rare to win a battle. Brothers are happy, so they drank a few more drinks. Hiccups, Commander-in-Chief, Don't blame Hiccup."

A cloud of alcohol breathed out, making the commander-in-chief and deputy commander-in-chief almost vomit.

Resisting the urge to vomit, the commander-in-chief was no longer in the mood to talk, so he waved his hand and said to the leader of the Fort Vicky team: "Since you drank too much, let's rest early."

After saying that, he left with the deputy commander with a look of disgust on his face.

The others also dispersed one by one, and soon, Cagalli, I, and the two dwarf brothers were the only ones left at the gathering point.

The dwarf leader sneered in the direction in which the commander-in-chief was leaving, and murmured: "I'm just pretending to be a wolf with a big tail!"

The deputy team leader sneered and raised his middle finger.

The performance of the two dwarf brothers made me laugh out loud: "You were all speechless just now, but now you act like you're fine. Are you really drunk or are you pretending to be drunk?"

"I'm really drunk, but I'm just pretending to be drunk." The dwarf leader turned to me and said with a respectful expression: "You don't know something, sir. Our brothers were almost in despair when we encountered the disaster. If it hadn't been for your Destroyer Legion to rush forward. , I’m afraid the brothers will suffer heavy casualties, and even we probably won’t be able to escape unscathed.”

At this point, he showed his true feelings and bowed to express his thanks: "Thank you, sir, for your life-saving grace."

I quickly helped him up, patted his shoulder, and said: "What a life-saving grace, you think too much. We are all in the same boat. If the boat sinks, no one can escape. I am just contributing my meager strength to share with everyone." Let’s get through this together.”

After a few more polite words, the dwarf leader said seriously: "I wonder if your Excellency can notice that the commander-in-chief has a prejudice against you."

"Prejudice?" I looked at Cagalli and said with a smile, "Maybe, but we all came together to resist the disaster. Before the disaster is completely eliminated, as long as we don't offend, we can't do anything wrong." It’s too tense.”

The dwarf leader also nodded in agreement with my point of view. Before leaving, the deputy leader did not forget to remind me again that I must pay attention to the commander-in-chief.

After accepting his kindness, Cagalli and I returned to the hotel.

Nothing happened all night, and early the next morning, a waiter knocked on the door again, saying that Cagalli's parents missed their daughter and hoped that Cagalli could go to the capital.

Hearing this, Cagalli's eyes turned red. She hadn't seen her parents for a long time, and her longing for her parents became stronger. In addition, the old Duke usurped the throne, and the current situation of her father, queen, and queen must not be very good, so her longing became even more out of control. .

She immediately changed her clothes, pulled me along, and headed to the airship base together.

On the airship, I kept comforting her, don't be sad, you have to show a happy expression, otherwise when you meet your father, queen and mother later, they will see you with tears on your face and bloodshot eyes, and you will feel so distressed!

Cagalli nodded repeatedly, but the tears couldn't stop and kept flowing down.

When the airship was about to arrive in the capital, Cagalli washed her face several times, put on some light makeup, and had a simple meal before sitting on the sofa and slowly adjusting her mood.

After the airship landed, Cagalli's mood had almost been adjusted. She was holding my arm, smiling, and exuding the unique noble temperament of a royal family.

Under the guidance of the waiter, we arrived at the palace. From a distance, we saw a straight old man standing at the door. Although this old man was energetic, his hair was already gray and his age was clearly visible - different from the slightly rich man he once was. , the red-faced old Duke looked completely different, even a bit older than when I last saw him.

The old Duke opened his hands slightly and said with a kind smile, "Welcome home, Cagalli."

Cagalli's face twitched, but then she smiled as brightly as a lotus flower and said, "I haven't seen you for so many years, but you are still full of energy. It's really gratifying."

The two exchanged a few false greetings, during which the old Duke shed a few crocodile tears.

Finally, when I was walking in, a guard stopped me with his hand and shouted: "No idlers are allowed to enter the palace without permission!"

I stopped, looked at the guard up and down, and said, "Can I ask a question?"

When the guard heard this, he glanced at the old Duke secretly, and when he saw him nodding slightly, he said, "Okay."

"Is the prince-in-law of Dasai City considered an idler?"

The guard thought for a moment and looked at the old Duke again, but this time, the old Duke did not respond to him, so he had to bite the bullet and said: "It should not be counted."

"Oh, since it doesn't count, that's fine."

With that said, I stepped inside.

But the guard came up again like a shadow, stopped me, and said: "You are not the prince-in-law. Apart from the eldest princess, I have never heard of any princess getting married in Dasai City!"

"I am the fiancé of your little princess, and I am considered half a prince-in-law. Since a prince-in-law is not an idler, I believe that I am not half a prince-consort either. At most, I am considered half an idler."

"This" guard has obviously never seen such a difficult person like me - maybe they have seen him before, but they always used violent means to drive them away. But this is the first time for someone with a special status and difficulty like me to see him. .

"Bastard!" The old Duke, who had been watching with cold eyes, cursed at this time: "Didn't you know that this is Lord An Xiaoyi, an elder from outside the Moonlight City, the former prime minister of Dasay City, and the fiancée of Princess Cagalli? How dare you? Stopping it will really blind your eyes!"

When the guard heard this, he flopped down on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "My lord, please forgive me, my lord, please forgive me!"

"That's all." I waved my hand and said, "You are a newcomer, and you don't know these stories of mine. As the saying goes, the ignorant is not guilty, so I will naturally not deal with you. Just pay more attention in the future."

"Yes, thank you sir, thank you sir"

The guard knelt on the ground and watched us leave with a lot of gratitude.

The old Duke snorted, turned to me, and said with a smile: "My servant is ignorant and bumped into you. I hope you will forgive me."

"It's easy to say, easy to say. He didn't mean it, so I won't be offended." I said nonchalantly with a smile on my face.

But in fact, I have already cursed in my heart: What a fool, he doesn’t know me, don’t you still know me? Also, don’t think that I can’t see that you two are flirting with each other. If you burp your fart one day in the future, I will have to dance on your grave.
