On the second day, in the early morning.

Just as Ye Yu stepped out of the cell and onto the stairs, the dazzling sunlight made him raise his arm to shield his eyes.

Today's wind-

Unexpectedly noisy, is it because of me?

"Is this the last sunlight I'll see?"

As soon as he left the cell, Ye Yu looked at the sky through the gaps in his fingers, with a reluctant expression, as if he had raised a death flag at once.

Thinking of the desolation when Jing Ke tried to assassinate the King of Qin and left without turning back, Ye Yu couldn't help feeling the same.

"The wind is sighing and the Yi River is cold, a hero leaves and never returns, never returns, never returns, oh never returns." Shaking his head and swaggering, a sense of desolation surged in that moment.

I want to ride the wind and go, but there is no way home, lovesickness is bitter, lovesickness is bitter, oh lovesickness is bitter.

Ye Yu thought that if he could chant such a good poem, maybe he actually had the talent to be a poet, but he was going to die before he could even start the poet skill.

"Forgive me for being blunt, but this time it's just to see His Majesty the King, and there's still some time before your execution. It's not too late for you to express your feelings then."

There was still a guy behind him who loved to disturb people's elegance.

The calm voice that didn't make people feel rude came from the second princess's maid.

Dressed meticulously in black and white maid uniforms, their hands were clasped lightly in the center of the skirt, even when walking. Strict and elegant, they stood there in a very ordinary way, yet Ye Yu could feel the burning maid soul in this woman.

"Nobles say so on the surface, but in fact, they secretly make a move. I know that tune," Ye Yu sneered.

Such a cold smile-

Actually coming from an unknown commoner prisoner!？

The maid suddenly wanted to punch him a few times, but she hid it well, so Ye Yu had no chance to see it.

"Then, Miss Maid, can you tell me what His Majesty wants from me?"

Before meeting the king, it was best to find out as much information as you could and be prepared.

"It's about discussing and handling the relevant matters after you and the princess mated." The maid calmly stated.

"I see, it's really like that... No, wait, you just said mating, definitely said mating."

"Your ears must be bad, I said 【blocked】."

Ye Yu felt like he was struck by lightning, petrified.

What did this woman just say, she looked calm but definitely said something terrible, or else why would it be harmonized!?

And how did such a woman become a princess's maid? Did the princess go blind or something, or was it through the back door, Ye Yu believed it was through the back door, otherwise, who would want such a rude maid.

The maid's image was shattered in Ye Yu's mind, and his fantasy about maids was completely ruined.

Maybe Lelia's not letting him have a maid last time had a deeper meaning.

"You seem to be thinking very rude things, Mr. NanGong YeYu." The maid's face changed faster than flipping through a book, with a big "井" character on her forehead.

"Uh..."

Her expression immediately turned super unhappy, as if she wanted to beat him up, a terrifying face-changing play.

Ye Yu was intimidated by this terrifying aura, cold sweat, could this person read minds? She saw through my thoughts!!

...

In fact, the dungeon and the castle are not too far apart, or rather, the dungeon is actually underground of the castle, it's just that the exit is placed outside the castle.

Ye Yu had no words for such a structure.

"His Majesty the King must be a heroic figure."

Hearing Ye Yu's sigh, the maid felt a little strange: "If you want me to put in a good word for you in front of His Majesty, it would be better to save your efforts."

Why? Of course, because his beloved daughter has been messing around, ah no, has been messed with by this man who looks nothing like a noble.

Under such circumstances, the maids dared not disturb the lion who might be angry.

Several lives were not enough to make up for it——

"Miss Maid, may I ask if there have been any ... ah, terrible rumors in this palace..." Seeing the maid's cold eyes, Ye Yu had to change his words.

Some say curiosity kills the cat, but humans are such foolish creatures that they know they are going to the tiger mountain but still walk towards it."Rumors?"

"That's like scandals." The gossip fire is burning in Xiong Xiong's heart, and Night Rain really wants to know now, staring at the glowing eyes of the maid on fire with gossip, "For example, a maid in the castle suddenly becomes pregnant or the princess and a mysterious person's illegitimate child, and so on."

Speaking of the criminals being locked up in the castle's underground, wouldn't there be any scandals happening next door? Night Rain thinks this is highly possible, and a strong curiosity ignites the gossip flames.

The maid gave a cold stare.

"Mind your words, this is not the countryside. Although the twenty-sixth king has proclaimed a freedom of speech law, it's still not appropriate for us to discuss such matters. Please don't bring your terrible interests into this royal castle, you foolish creature that resembles a human.""What a terrible statement you're making, Miss Maid.""Ei, I'm very sorry, I accidentally spoke the truth."The maid widened her eyes, covering her mouth, making a surprised face. She looked unexpectedly cute, but her words were so hurtful.

"You have no remorse at all, you just did it on purpose, right?""So what if I did it on purpose, you humanoid ape creature."The maid grunted displeasedly behind him, Night Rain walked along, turned his head, and asked full of suspicion, "Did you just say something?""Are you deaf, Mr. Humanoid Ape?" With an undisguised friendly smile, the maid contained murderous intent.

Night Rain was completely blackened, his eyes that were about to die stared at the maid.

"Even though I'm called a great person, I still can't be happy.""That's because you are just an intellectually lamentable humanoid ape creature, Sir NanGong YeYu."The maid's words were very sharp, and after saying it, she suddenly covered her mouth with both hands, her surprised expression seemed unexpected that she would say such words out of her status.

"I'm very sorry, I shouldn't have said that."Yo Xi Yo Xi, the apology's attitude is fairly good. Night Rain was originally forgiving and didn't care about the maid's previous rudeness, but after hearing the next sentence, his whole mood changed.

"I'm sorry, I just used the wrong term for a lowly creature like you, disgusting gorilla."This woman has a problem in her brain! That's the conclusion.

"It's your brain that has a problem, right, NanGong YeYu, the big gorilla?"The maid lady smiled, with a brilliant smile, but the slight twitch at the corner of her mouth didn't escape Night Rain's sharp eyes.

However, Night Rain is the kind of weird creature that doesn't feel comfortable unless he provokes others. Plus, he was angry about the terrible nickname, so he decided to continue provoking.

"You like opposing me so much, you must be on your period, Miss Gorilla in human disguise."Night Rain launched a taunting skill.

Wavy white ruffles – this was the last scenery NanGong YeYu saw. The wind blew, messing up his handsome hair.

Why do I feel like my vision is spinning 360 degrees?Bang——

After completing her work, the maid lady dusted off her hands, and then dragged the convulsing, half-dead humanoid creature on the ground into the castle, attracting many guards on the way.

Under countless astonished gazes, Night Rain unknowingly made a name for himself in this castle.

As the maid walked steadily and unhurriedly, dragging the body past a corridor, a voice said, "Hold on, Restia, leave him here."Seeing the person who spoke, the maid immediately kicked the body to the side, straightened herself with contempt, clapped her hands, and bowed respectfully.

"Lord Everton!"

……

Night Rain opened his eyes. He had lost a memory. He found himself lying on the slightly damp grassland.

"Are you awake?"

Night Rain sat up halfway, both hands behind him propping up his body.

He found out there was another person beside him, an old man.

"Uhm—"

"What happened to me?"

"Already forgot everything?" The old man's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's.

With just a glance, he saw through everything about Night Rain, then immediately switched expressions, showing a mischievous look full of delight in Night Rain's misfortune.

"But it's okay, you'll get used to it. Those who have experienced Restia's iron fists will normally lose a period of memories they can't recall, hohohohoho……""Where is this normal?" Night Rain helplessly covered her slightly aching head, only then she began to look at the surrounding environment. "This is probably inside the castle, right?"

There was a small lake, not too big, and the surface of the water shimmered due to the wind. The green grass surrounded the small lake, on which Night Rain was currently sitting, and there was a long corridor behind her. It seemed to lead to various parts of the castle; she could see maids hurrying past and people who looked like cultural officials occasionally walking past, carrying rolled-up documents in their hands.

"This place is Castle Cogunar, a residence given by the king to the second princess," explained an elderly man.

"You mean it's a gift for the daughter?"

"Yes, exactly."

After receiving the elder's answer, Night Rain covered her head and said speechlessly, "That is really a grand gesture. This castle doesn't look cheap at all. The historical value alone is enough to make this castle appreciate again. No, no, no, this thing must be at least five or six hundred years old. I heard that there was a big change back then, and to be preserved so intact, it might already be beyond the measure of money."

"Oh, you can actually see the value of this castle. Not bad, not bad." The old man's eyes widened, seemingly having a newfound perception of Night Rain.

"Um, antiques are very valuable, and well-preserved ancient buildings are even more so. Everyone in this parallel world knows this. Why are you so surprised?" Night Rain said awkwardly, having gained the renewed recognition of others because of a random comment, she felt "pretentiousness" was always accompanying her.

"No, you're wrong. Princess Lelia Pendragon herself didn't know."

As the elderly man spoke, he fell into a black-and-white reminiscence, seemingly still appreciating the young girl in front of him. (If you like this story, give it a like, smile)
