Become a martial girl

Chapter 446 Princess·Prince·The Past
Leaving the dormitory, gradually descending along a trail in the palace.On the way, he passed through countless doors and stairs, and passed the eyes of countless soldiers and guards.Allen led everyone down, down.Finally, he came to the gate of a library, ordered the two soldiers guarding the gate to push open the heavy and ancient gate, and walked in.

A slightly musty air smelt the nostrils, the light here was dim, and it seemed that it was no longer below the sea level.There are huge bookshelves as high as four or five meters standing in front of you. The slightly mottled wooden structure brings a sense of vicissitudes that have been through the years.

Allen closed the door and walked into the depths of the library with a contemptuous smile on his lips.Her footsteps stepped on the floor, making a "creak...creak..." sound.

"Hey, Mengdie..." Edward, who was following Alan, put on the long hand on his right hand tightly, and whispered in Mengdie's ear.

Mengdie nodded: "Ah, I know. There are people following along the way, and it seems that the time for the two regents to appear is not far away."

Allen seemed to have heard what Mengdie said, maybe he didn't.She just continued to come to the deepest part of the library with a mocking look in her eyes.There was a platform where only one book could be placed, and a thick "Mercury Encyclopedia Dictionary" was spread out on the platform.Allen stepped forward, removed the dictionary from the shelf indifferently, and pressed it down heavily on the shelf.

The rumbling sound of mechanism movement sounded, and the two rows of bookshelves facing Allen opened in left and right.The dust on the bookshelves scattered, revealing a dark and deep cave inside.Take a closer look, and there is another row of spiral stairs extending downwards.

"Huh... It's hard for me to imagine that this place has not been discovered by the two regents?" Mengdie said.

Allen snorted coldly, and walked towards the spiral staircase first: "How could it not be discovered? When the father was still alive, those two guys discovered this secret passage one after another. But... hum, even if they No matter how smart you are, it is absolutely impossible to think that this is a trap."

Everyone followed into the tunnel, and after Allen pressed down on a stone slab next to the spiral staircase, the two rows of bookshelves slowly closed.Afterwards, Father Cotton released a magic ball of light, which illuminated everyone's footsteps and continued to spread downward.

On the narrow, damp, and steep stairs, there was only the sound of people's footsteps knocking back and forth.Allen, who walked first, kept his hands behind his back, and continued to have that mocking look on his face.Mengdie, who was walking in the second place, looked at her, and gradually recalled what she said just now——

When the father was still alive...

Yeah... why didn't I think of this?This girl lost her parents at such a young age...

"Alan... I'm sorry."

Out of pity for the little girl, Mengdie couldn't help reaching out and stroking her head.

The feeling of friction between fingers and hair made Allen startled!She rushed forward a few steps quickly, turned her head, and looked at Mengdie vigilantly: "What are you doing? It's nothing to do."

She is an orphan - Mengdie thought so.With orphans, any bad temper has a reason for it.For orphans, what is needed is tolerance and tolerance.

"It's nothing, but..." Mengdie smiled gently, "You must be lonely these days, right? But, why do you have to dress up as a woman?"

Allen held his head, and glanced at Mengdie vigilantly again.After a long time, she continued to walk down.However, there was no answer to Mengdie.

Mengdie sighed, made eye contact with the friend behind her, and shook her head.But just when she thought this silent journey would continue, Allen, who was at the front, suddenly spoke——

"My father passed away when I was very young. At that time, I couldn't remember my father's face at all. I could only vaguely remember his voice. I remember the vagueness of him hugging me, loving me, and taking care of me. shadow……"

The girl sighed, raised her head, and looked up at the ceiling that spiraled down at the same time.

"I don't know how great my father is, but my mother once said to me that he is the greatest father and the greatest emperor in the world. Maybe when I was young, I couldn't understand what my mother said. How great the deeds are, but at least in my heart, he has become a role model that I want to follow in my life."

"But...the father is dead."

"His death brought not only pain to my mother, but also a change in my life."

"Due to the early death of the father, there is no younger brother left to inherit the throne. My mother is also a smart woman, and she is very clear about the rise of the two factions in the country at that time. Now that I think about it, it may have been as early as when the father was in power. Now, the Luo La faction and the Ji Wen faction have already become powerful and difficult to deal with. At this critical time, mother is very clear about how terrible things will happen inside the Mercury Empire if there is no heir to the throne."

"Division. And war."

These two words were thrown out by Allen heavily, as if he was throwing a blood-sucking bug, wishing to crush them to death and tear them to pieces.

"My mother is very smart. I don't know if it's a coincidence. From her mouth, I learned that my father didn't announce to the outside world that I was a girl, but a boy. I don't know if this is just a joke of my father, or something else. There is a hidden secret. In short, my identity has been changed in this way, and I have become the next heir to the throne of the Mercury Empire——Prince Allen."

"Throughout these years, my mother taught me everything I had to know. She taught me everything she knew about math, geography, history, military affairs, politics, and how to act like a man. She Tell me, if I want to live, and live to regain control of the regime, and regain all the power that belonged to my father from the hands of those two factions, then I must live as a man."

Mengdie was deeply silent... For some reason, she found that Alan's situation was slightly similar to her own.It is also forced to change gender, and it is also forced to live with another identity.But relatively speaking, apart from the bad situation in terms of gender, he did not bring himself a fatal disaster because of his gender.Compared with Allen, he is much luckier.

The sphere of light led the way, and Allen stretched out his hand, stroking the increasingly damp walls around him.While walking, her story continues——

"However, three years ago, my mother died. The death was so bizarre and unimaginable. I would never believe that my mother would choose to commit suicide by taking poison because she missed her father too much and had nothing to love in her life. She said she'd see me on the throne, and then when things were back in my hands, choose a good husband for me. She wouldn't kill herself, never-n-n-would."

The cold words made this gloomy staircase even colder, and Mengdie seemed to see scenes of conspiracies appearing in front of her eyes.For all of this, she was so powerless...and helpless.

Allen was silent for a while, but the silence didn't last long.

"Mother's death is not completely useless. At least, she taught the most important lesson in life - despicable, vicious. Since the death of the mother, the little girl who was still a little innocent has finally disappeared completely. And I, too, was born from that shell. I will not trust anyone. As long as I can achieve my goal, anyone can be killed and anyone can be used. And this law allows me to survive until now and live until the near future Now enthroned."

Having said that, Allen suddenly turned his head, and looked at Mengdie with a smile that was crueler and weirder than any horror creature.Suddenly being looked at by her like this, Mengdie suddenly stopped in her tracks, not daring to step forward.

"Woman, you ask me, why do I continue to dress like a woman? The reason is actually very simple. Because fortunately, the laws of the Mercury Empire did not clearly stipulate that women cannot inherit the throne. It is just based on traditional concepts and Mercury Historically speaking, there has never been a female emperor."

"Do you know what that means? Hmph. Now that I'm not on the throne, that is to say, once my identity as a woman is exposed, then the two 'big men' will immediately force me to amend the constitution to prevent women from being elected kings." In order to create conditions for themselves, they will definitely write in the law the candidate for the next king, based on who can marry the princess as his wife. Because compared to marrying their own daughter to the king as a Queen, why don't you just marry me back home, and it will be more direct and quicker to become king naturally."

Allen clenched his fists tightly and slammed on the wall.She clenched her teeth tightly, her face full of anger and resentment.

"I'm used to the despicableness of those people, and I'm even more used to the dirty life of their so-called 'promising youths'. If I were to marry any of them, I would imagine being pressed on the bed by those bastards, I can't help but want to throw up! So, for myself and for the country, I can't let my identity be exposed. I have decided that within six years after taking the throne, I will be able to re-in charge of everything, On my 20th birthday, I will announce my status as empress with the honor and blessings of my father and mother.”

When it comes to regaining power, when it comes to parents, the little girl's eyes shone brilliantly.Is this expression her truest expression?Mengdie hoped so.Because this kind of brilliance and longing had dispelled the viciousness and coldness on her face.The memory of her parents has become the last piece of peaceful land deep in her heart...

The long spiral staircase finally came to an end.What greeted Mengdie and others was an abnormally wide stone room.The stone chamber was empty, filled with soil moisture and moss.But it is unbelievable that the air here is so clear, as if it is in the depths of the forest.
