Chapter 1106 Selling the Princess

"His Royal Highness lives in this place?"

The Earl of Compton brought a few nobles to a nice courtyard, and they couldn't help being shocked when they heard Selina say that Her Royal Highness lived under other people's fence in order to save money.

In the early stage, Princess Sophia had to keep several servants in order to buy all kinds of exquisite clothes and taste all kinds of unknown dishes, so the money Sir Greenville left her was quickly spent. Selina He also subsidized his pocket money to Princess Sofia.

Princess Sophia later lived in Liu Rushi's house, on the one hand to save money, on the other hand she didn't want to live alone.

When the envoys came to visit, there were only a few servants of Princess Sophia in the courtyard. They saw the nobles from their own country and hurriedly saluted.

At this time, Liu Rushi and Princess Sophia had just returned from school at the Imperial University, and they were on the way to pick up Chen Yuanyuan, who had just entered middle school, so they came back a bit late.

"Did Yuanyuan cause trouble in the school today?" Princess Sophia and Chen Yuanyuan were familiar with each other, and asked Chen Yuanyuan.

"Yuanyuan is so obedient, how could she cause trouble." Chen Yuanyuan said naturally.

"Who caused quite a stir in the school as soon as school started, causing several boys to fight?" Liu Rushi said.

"Hmph, those little boys are too naive. If they are provoked, they will hug and fight. You can't blame me. I went to school to follow in the footsteps of your sister, not to play house with them." Chen Yuanyuan said .

"Don't think that my sister will believe you just because she says something nice on the surface." Liu Rushi said.

When they returned to the courtyard where they were, they found that there were many blond or chestnut-haired people gathering in front of their mansion, and besides these people, there were also many onlookers.

"This is the mission sent by your country, princess, right?" Liu Rushi knew the news of the arrival of the second batch of British missions. At this time, he saw a group of Westerners gathered here, most of whom were members of the missions.

Princess Sophia felt a little complicated when she saw the envoy from Britain. Even though she was reluctant to return to London, her family was still there after all. After being away from London for more than a year, she still missed her hometown.

"This is...His Royal Highness the Princess!" Several British nobles who led the team had seen this troublesome princess before. At this time, Princess Sophia was wearing an unfamiliar costume, which made the British nobles stunned for a while before they realized that it was their princess. Your Highness.

"Why are you making such a fuss, don't you know me?" Princess Sophia said dissatisfiedly when she saw the surprised expressions of these British nobles.

"Your Highness, with all due respect, you should wear our British dress to maintain your noble image." One of the nobles said.

"Isn't it noble for me to wear this? The clothes I brought are already outdated. Do you want me to wear old clothes?" Princess Sophia said.

"No, that's not what I mean..." The nobleman who was questioned by Princess Sophia replied hastily.

"Well, we must respect the choice of Her Highness the Princess. Her Highness is in a foreign country, and there is nothing to make a fuss about blending into the local area." Earl Compton stopped some nobles from making things difficult for Princess Sophia.

"Guests, please go inside. If you have something to say, you can talk in detail." Liu Rushi, as the host, invited Earl Compton and others to enter the courtyard.

Compton and others looked around at the scenery in the courtyard. The place where Liu Rushi and Princess Sophia live now is actually the courtyard that Chu Yun bought for Ella. Rushi, Sophia, Chen Yuanyuan and others lived there.

"The place where Her Royal Highness lives with others is not bad. It doesn't mean that Her Royal Highness's identity is humiliated."

"Could it be that this courtyard is owned by the young woman who walked with Her Royal Highness? If so, her identity is extraordinary."

"The ones who can communicate with Her Royal Highness must be important people here, maybe the nobles here."

Several British nobles whispered.

"My lady, we want to discuss things privately with Her Highness the Princess. I wonder if we can provide a convenience?" Earl Compton said.

"Of course it is possible." Liu Rushi replied.

Princess Sophia and several British nobles came to the house, and Earl Compton handed a letter to Princess Sophia: "This is a letter from His Majesty the King, please read it personally."

"I knew it." Princess Sophia took the letter.

At the beginning of the letter home, Charles I described the recent situation of the royal family in his heart, especially the recent situation of his mother, Princess Anne, which almost made Princess Sophia teary-eyed.

But when Princess Sophia read the back of the letter, her face was not right.

"My brother wants me to marry Mr. Chu Yun!? I have fled to the east, and my brother wants to force the marriage?" Princess Sophia was dumbfounded after reading the letter from Charles I to her family.

In the past, Charles I planned to marry her to Spain and Prussia to obtain foreign aid from the British royal family in continental Europe, so Princess Sophia escaped marriage all the year round.This time, after Charles I planned to sign a trade agreement with the eastern empire, he wanted to marry Princess Sophia to Chu Yun, so as to obtain the support of this empire, which was suspected to be the most powerful.

"I have no right to check the family letter from His Majesty the King, but His Majesty the King entrusted us to propose marriage to the other party. It is true. His Majesty the King even prepared a piece of land in the West Indies as a dowry. Please be mentally prepared, Your Majesty the Princess." , if the other party agrees to our request, Her Royal Highness may stay in the East permanently," said Earl Compton.

"My brother is too much, I don't want to be a victim of marriage." Princess Sophia said.

"Princess, don't worry. Since Her Majesty the King asked us to discuss this matter with Her Majesty the Princess, she did not mean to force Her Majesty the Princess. Her Majesty the Princess has lived in the East for more than a year, so she should know each other better. If Her Majesty the Princess feels that the other party's person If your character and talent are acceptable, we will propose a marriage proposal to the other party. If not, the matter will be dropped. His Majesty the King also intends to allow you to choose whether to stay in the East or return to Britain with us. If Her Royal Highness chooses to stay in If so, we will provide Her Royal Highness the living expenses needed before leaving," said the Earl of Compton.

"When did my brother become so talkative?!" Princess Sophia was even more surprised by Charles I's tolerance.

Compton and other British nobles looked at each other in blank dismay. Why is Her Royal Highness not satisfied with the king's relaxation?

"I wonder if Her Royal Highness is willing?" Earl Compton confirmed.
