You and me under the world tree

"Yes, that's true."

"So, sometimes I don't know why many people pay so much attention to the so-called appearance."

Then Howard fell silent.

Although he has always felt that Siegfried was a little simple and honest, the words he uttered made him feel more complicated.

He is kind and at the same time a little naive.

Moreover, even now that he has been immersed in the vortex of interests in the court, and even stood at the pinnacle of human power, his sincere heart has never changed.

Just like what Hagen once said, Siegfried is willing to put aside the discrimination of body size that most people have, and is willing to treat him with the attitude of treating normal people.

Perhaps from the perspective of some smart people, this is an attitude of solicitation after valuing Hagen's unparalleled talent.

But in fact this is not the case, because Siegfried never cared about his appearance, he really wanted to make some like-minded friends with his heart.

"Because of senses and first impressions, kid."

After hesitating for a moment, Hodder repeated his previous words.

"But these things..."

"Compared to the good character in the heart and the wisdom in the head, the appearance is indeed not worth mentioning, but this is a requirement for 'personal'."

At this moment, Howard stretched out his hand.

He patted Siegfried on the shoulder lightly.

"When you were young, the reason why I taught you this is that I hope you have a pair of brighter eyes. I don't want you to be blinded by the illusion of appearance."

"but……"

"But I admit that in this world, it's not 'normal', and even, 'virtue' is not the norm."

"uncle……"

"Most people praise good virtue, and even advocate it, but the fact is that it is so good that it is so good that it must be cherished because so few people are able to do it."

"Ok, I know."

Perhaps it was because Hodder's words reminded him of a lot of things he knew in the palace and the kingdom's diplomacy, so Siegfried couldn't help but sigh in the end.

"In the palace, even in the communication with the royal family, the 'beautiful' I once expected was called 'stupid' and 'naive'. Sometimes I wonder if I did something wrong."

"You are the king, Siegfried, no one can change your cognition and ideas, just do what you think is right."

"Ah."

'Snapped'

Just as Siegfried nodded, Huo De couldn't help but increase the strength in his hand.

He patted Siegfried directly on the shoulder.

"hiss"

At this moment, even the legendary Lord of Armies couldn't help grinning.

If his body was not still strong, this slap could even bend him down.

"Uncle, what are you doing?"

"It's nothing, I just want to say that I didn't intend to discuss this kind of topic with you that is easy to explode your mind."

"what……"

"I was just saying something to you casually before, what are you thinking about so much?"

At this moment, Siegfried couldn't help turning his head back. He wanted to say something, but Hodder had already circled behind him.

"Okay, don't forget that you still have to entertain guests, so don't keep her waiting."

The sage gave the young king a gentle push on the back.

"Um……"

"Don't forget the words I taught you, there is a high probability that you can use them."

"it is good."

After taking a deep breath, Siegfried opened the door.

There, the beautiful princess waits quietly.

Chapter 34: Trouble with Krimhild

'click'

When the door opened, there was a crisp sound.

After hearing this voice, Her Royal Highness, who was sitting quietly on the chair, raised her head involuntarily.

At this time, there should be only one person who can enter this room for meeting guests and visitors.

King Siegfried...

Staring at the door, the first thing she saw was the robust body honed by adventures and battlefields. After looking up a little, she saw the handsome face that made her yearn for days and nights.

"together……"

Almost instantly, she could hardly suppress the excitement in her heart, and said the intimate name she had repeated countless times behind her back.

Unfortunately, this appellation was not approved.

She had tried in this regard, and soon aroused the dissatisfaction of His Majesty the King.

The young king was unlike any of the men she had seen.

In Burgundy, whenever she called out the men's names, they put on a happy face.

And the guys who are a little more aggressive will get excited about it.

However, Siegfried is different from these people in terms of performance, and he has enough capital to maintain his pride.

"Your Majesty the King."

Facing Siegfried's slightly serious expression, Krimhild smiled and spoke.

She stood up, then gently lifted the corner of the white skirt, and saluted.

All her decorum is flawless, and she has no intention of cutting corners.

During getting along, she knew that the man in front of her absolutely didn't like any pretentious and false behavior, so she would never cheat in this regard.

The so-called etiquette must be in place.

With this in mind, when she raised her skirt and smiled, her head also lowered.

The long, smooth hair hung down from one side like a waterfall.

No fancy hairstyles, everything is pretty rustic.

And from Siegfried's angle, he could clearly see a string of crystal necklaces hanging around Krimhild's neck at the moment.

Although it is simple, it is also extraordinary.

The most important thing is that compared to the gorgeous dress she showed when she presented the gold-rimmed rose in the crystal bottle, she looked pure at this moment.

In this regard, looking at the Burgundy princess, Siegfried couldn't help but feel a little helpless and complicated.

Although he didn't know much about clothing matching, he knew that Her Royal Highness did put a lot of effort into dressing.

Every time he met, he could notice the changes in her, and this change was not unreasonable.

She is gradually becoming simple and more in line with Siegfried's aesthetics, which has nothing to do with royal status.

There are no overly gorgeous accessories, only a string of translucent crystal pendants that cannot be easily noticed, and the long dress is based on white.

Time and time again, she made insinuations about Ziegfeld's hobbies, and then went on to talk about things like taste in clothes.

It's all watertight.

Siegfried could even be sure that if he hadn't been wary of this woman from the very beginning, if he hadn't realized that the girl named Hilda had already occupied an indelible place in his heart, he would have even Shake it up.

However, there is no 'if' in this world, let alone any other messy things.

No matter how much she does, it is impossible for Siegfried to ignore the hidden dangers that may exist in her.

"Miss Krimhild, do you need anything?"

Just when Krimhild raised his head, Siegfried asked.

As a king, he didn't have to salute the princesses of other countries at all. After all, in terms of status, Krimhild who came to visit him was just an envoy of the kingdom.

As the host, it is necessary for him to ensure that the guests are satisfied with the hospitality of the kingdom, but he does not need to care too much about the feelings of the other party.

To put it bluntly, these words are just a scene.

At this moment, Krimhild did not know if he could hear the meaning of alienation from Siegfried's words, but Krimhild just responded with a smile.

"No, everything is fine here."

"That's good."

Under Krimhild's watchful eyes, Siegfried just took a big step, and then sat down on the chair casually.

At the same time, the beautiful Princess Krimhild sat down slowly.

"At the beginning, when I was designing and rebuilding this city, I intended to make it the center. Now it seems that the effect is good. If Miss Krimhild is interested in the characteristic handicrafts of various countries, you can send someone to Go shopping."

At this moment, His Majesty the King did not touch the pastries and tea brought by the maids, his fingers just tapped the small wooden table slowly.

His words were full of pride for the kingdom he ruled and the ancient city under his feet.

"In addition, if Miss Krimhild feels that staying in the residence every day is a bit boring, you can also go shopping in the clean and tidy residential area. I believe that the commercial street inside will not let you down."

There are two places where you can do business in City of Wrath. One is the market area outside the residential area. It is the place with the largest traffic in the whole city. It is usually for foreign vendors to set up shops and sell fresh fruits and vegetables. It is easy to carry Dry food or protective gear, swords and other supplies.

At the same time, there is an arena for everyone.

It's not a slave fight, but a pure martial arts tournament, which is held every three months. After all, the entire human world has a martial atmosphere. Even if there is no large arena in some small places, there are places similar to rings.

It is a paradise for outsiders and adventurers, and there is a commercial street inside the residential area. The shops in this commercial street are not as noisy as the outside, and there are guards guarding it.

Those are places where merchants who supply royal supplies with their own excellent brands are qualified to set foot.

In fact, the things they sell are not much different from those of external shops, but the environment is good, and they can also add the prefix of the royal family of the Netherlands.

But Siegfried didn't know much about this point.

Because these are led by his uncle Hodder and Hagen.

Simply put, his uncle said, Hagen understood and did it.

Then, on the day when the commercial street opened, Hagen proudly told him that these stores would continue to earn his personal treasury, he was stunned. After all, in his opinion, those merchants should have nothing to do with him. .

It is one thing to supply the royal family with goods, and the royal family does not buy without paying.

But the principle of making money or something is not very clear to him.

However, this does not prevent him from proudly introducing this commercial street, because he has been to that commercial street before, and there is basically everything in it, and rare treasures from various countries are sometimes displayed.

Hagen even plans to build a roof inside so that even if it rains outside, he can continue to do business inside.

"I went to your commercial street to see it."

At this moment, Krimhild just pursed his lips and smiled.

"It's just that recently, I've been used to the prosperity of the city, and I want to go to the surrounding quiet fields to feel the fragrance of nature, if possible..."

"no problem."

Facing Krimhild's words, Siegfried snapped his fingers confidently, and he made this arrangement without even waiting for Krimhild to say his little request.

"I will arrange someone to take charge of this matter. If you think about it carefully, let Hagen take you to the royal family's ranch. There are many cute little monsters there."

He just smiled.

"Although Warcraft will be more ferocious when they grow up, they are still very cute when they are young."

However, after hearing Siegfried's words, Krimhild's heart gradually sank.

It's a bit of a hassle...

At least for her it was.
