Chapter 225 [The Most Important]

"Two, I heard that the two ladies didn't eat anything last night. Are you dissatisfied with the dinner last night?"

Early in the morning, Hughes appeared in front of Adeline and Definney.

This was in the Governor's Mansion in Merica City. Hughes did not make things difficult for the two female prisoners. On the contrary, his promise was fulfilled, allowing the two girls to be treated as their identity.

They lived in a separate courtyard in the Governor's Mansion, a typical Byzantine classical aristocratic building. The dome main building is dotted with steep walls, colorful tiles and glazed glass transported from overseas, plus lamp posts decorated with gold and crystal. In one corner of the courtyard, a terrace of dozens of meters extends along the house, facing the east.

The two girls were arranged here and were not embarrassed. They were treated well and had no problem with food and clothing. Governor Hughes even sent several maids from the mansion to take care of the two. Even from the contact point of view, these maids sent even received some training in court etiquette. Hughes sent people to deliver fine food, all of which were court-style dishes. In addition, there were several sets of women's dresses from the court, all of which were made of luxurious silk, and even some jewelry.

There is no imprisonment, no shackles, no cell.

The only limitation is that the two were told that they could not leave the courtyard in the range of activities.

When Governor Hughes visited the two girls in the morning, he acted like a hospitable master, wearing a loose aristocratic robe, without a guard beside him, his hair was lazily spread over his shoulders, his face was blushed, his beard was carefully constructed, and he even sprayed with a perfume produced from the Kingdom of Landis.

"If you have any questions about your diet, please don't be polite, just make your request." Hughes walked to the two girls easily, and then in their blank eyes, he pulled the hands of the two girls one by one and kissed them. He looked elegant. Even even Adeline and Defini seemed, it was probably rare for people who could have such standard etiquette among the nobles in the imperial capital Osgilia.

"I have ordered two chefs to change. I can imagine that the two must be devoid of the appetite at the moment because of what is happening right now, but it doesn't matter. Coincidentally, I happened to hire a chef from the Kingdom of Landis. The chef who once worked in the Palace of Landis can cook the most authentic Landis-style seafood. I think this may give the two ladies a better appetite."

Hughes was talking and laughing, and slowly sat in front of the two of them. A few soft couches were placed on the terrace. Hughes sat down and patted his hands gently. Soon a maid in a garment walked in gently, holding a pure gold disc in his hand, holding a crystal bottle and a few transparent cups.

"This is the flower tea made from dew that I just collected in the morning. I heard that this is the habit of the Rantis nobles. It is very beneficial to drink a small cup in the morning." Hughes smiled elegantly, poured a cup for himself, took a sip, and then raised a glass to the two girls and signaled: "How about it, do you want to try it?"

Adeline stared at the Governor Hughes, biting her lips and not speaking. On the other hand, Defini, the Crown Princess, had a strange look in her amazingly beautiful eyes, stared at Governor Hughes. After a while, Defini suddenly smiled. When she smiled, the red glow of the rising sun was just shrouded on her face, and her delicate facial features seemed to have light, especially those eyes, as pure and crystal clear as crystals. However, Defini, who was originally gentle, seemed to have a kind of implicit aura on her body, suddenly exuded an aggressive beauty, which made Governor Hughes look stunned for a moment.

At this moment, Defini showed his beauty that was stunning, and even Adeline, who was also extremely beautiful around her, seemed to be pale in comparison.

Defini gently picked up a cup, and the transparent dewdrops with the newly picked petals were a little pink. He leaned to his lips and sniffed it lightly. Defini smiled and said, "It's true, it tastes good."

"Oh, thank you for your praise." Hughes seemed to be happy, and he glanced at Adeline: "Where are you? Your Highness?"

"No, I don't have much appetite." Adeline shook her head, frowned.

"Governor General." Defini sat down slowly and sat opposite Hughes. Her body was light and her body leaned forward slightly, staring into Hughes' eyes: "What I am curious about is how you will deal with us both? We are just two weak girls, and you are the governor who holds a strong soldier."

When she said this, a smile was hanging on her face. Under the red morning glow, the fair and delicate skin on her face looked almost translucent. Even her slender fingers holding the cup seemed to be soft and boneless. She just sat so casually, with a slight smile on her face, but it already made people feel all kinds of charm.

Governor Hughes felt his heartbeat speed a little faster, as if the charm exuded by the young girl in front of him could no longer be ignored. He subconsciously turned his head, drank the dew in his cup in one gulp, and then let out a long sigh, stood up, walked to the edge of the terrace, held the fence in his hand, deliberately turned sideways, not looking at Defini's eyes-he had already felt the amazing charm of the other party's eyes.

"I don't think this is a problem." Governor Hughes calmed his breath and smiled relaxedly: "You have my promise that I will give two treatments that match your identity. For me, they are not prisoners, but my VIP."

"You and I know the meaning of this." Defini shook her head slowly. She looked unfamiliar, but her tone gradually became firm: "Mr. Governor, I mean...If you just need our identity, then..."

"Do you have any suggestions?" Hughes was a hero on the side after all. After being shocked by Defini's beauty, he quickly woke up, his eyes returned to clearness and calmness. He turned his head to look at Defini: "Your Highness?"

"It's very simple, what you need is our identity." Defini lowered his head and thought for a moment, her long eyelashes shrouded her eyes, looking a bit pitiful and seductive, and then seemed to have made some decision in her heart: "Governor General, what I want to explain to you is that the reason why we were caught by Lord Salvador was because that night, we also tried to escape from Osgilia - you heard it right, I was saying 'escape'."

"What the hell do you want to say?"

"Adeline, she is worthless to you." Defini emphasized her tone. Her soft voice sounded like persuasion, and seemed to contain a bit of begging. Combined with her stunning face, it seemed like there was a magic that a man could not resist: "You may know one thing that Adeline's position in the royal family is not as important as the outside world imagines. His Majesty the Emperor does not value her. If you plan to use her to threaten His Majesty Contos, then this plan has no chance of success. So... if you need it, you can keep me!"

Speaking of this, Defini smiled bitterly, her smile full of bitterness: "Although my identity as a princess is just a joke, perhaps, in the eyes of the royal family, my status is not as good as Adeline. His Majesty and my husband only need me as a banner... If I die in your hands, I even suspect that my husband will be happy to see that result. But... what I want to tell you is that there is also a 'Minas' in my last name!"

Hughes raised an eyebrow.

"Maybe the title of future queen is disdainful to you. However, I came from the Minas family, and this identity should be very valuable to you." Defini said this, and she stood up and owed to Governor Hughes: "So, if you have any requests and what I need to do, I will be willing to cooperate. Just... Please let Adeline leave, thinking that she is indeed worthless to you in this situation. If you are willing to let her go, I will promise that I will write to my father and brother and do anything you need to cooperate with."

"Defenny..." Adeline, who was standing beside her, exclaimed with a cover of her mouth. She stepped forward in panic and hugged Definny's arm, tears flowing out of her eyes: "No! No! How can I leave you alone!"

Hughes looked at Defini for a moment, then the governor raised his hands...

Pa. Pa. Pa. Pa. Pa...

He gently stroked his palms and slapped them a few times, then smiled faintly: "It's great, Your Highness Defenny, you let me see the style of your father in you... You are worthy of being the daughter of the Minas family. In this case, I have to say that your performance is far beyond my expectations."

But at this point, Hughes sighed deliberately: "It's a pity that I can't agree to your request... because, although your courage is commendable, but his vision of judging things is a bit worse."

A hint of mocking in his eyes: "You are trying to convince me that His Highness Adeline is worthless? No, no, you are wrong, and you are very wrong! Although it is rude to say this, I still have to regret to say that among the two, in fact... His Highness Adeline is much higher than you think. In other words, among you, in fact, you, the noble His Highness Defenny, you are the irrelevant one."

"……………” Both girls looked at Hughes in shock.

"Are you surprised?" Hughes shook his head and raised a finger to sway gently: "No, no, Your Highness Adeline, you underestimate your value too much! You must know that what I value is not the blood of the Byzantine royal family on you, the blood of the Kronma family? Haha! In another year, the Kronma family will become the dust of history. Who cares about this? What I value is the noble blood of the other half of your body! Don't forget, in terms of it, you should call the great Emperor Odin and say "Uncle"!"

"Then... I'll ask you to let Defini go!" Adeline suddenly broke away from Adeline's arms, rushed up strode, and shouted: "I must do whatever you want me to do! Please let Defini go! Since she doesn't have that much value to you..."

Hughes's eyes seemed helpless, and his smile even had some pity, staring at Adeline.

"I like drinking, delicious food, and luxurious clothes, elegant and wonderful music, and the feeling of power in my hands... Of course, as a man who has all this, I will not reject beauty either." Although Hughes was smiling on his face, the words made the two girls cold to the core: "His Highness Defini is of course valuable to me. I don't deny that I need the title of the Minas family, but more importantly, her value lies in her. Oh, the number one beauty in the empire, which man doesn't want? Haha! Perhaps only the crown prince who likes men will disdain such a beautiful work of art that is like a masterpiece of heaven. Oh, and... I have heard some interesting legends about you. I heard that although you have been married to that idiot crown prince for two years,...haha."

When he smiled, his eyes seemed to be filled with vicious light. When his eyes were swept over, Defini felt as if he had been bitten by a poisonous snake and curled up.

"Indeed, it's a pity that you may not be the queen of the future. But... I will be very happy. Because, I really hope that in the near future, you can become the queen... My future 'King of Armenia' needs a beautiful hostess."

Defini's face was pale, and she gritted her teeth: "My father will not sit by and watch you succeed, and my brother, Roddy will not surrender..."

"Oh? Let's wait and see." Hughes smiled happily: "Are you really so sure? It's so childish! Compared with the courage you just showed, your knowledge is really childish and cute. You won't surrender? Humph, let's conquer Osgilia in one go, destroy the Kronma family, and burn the imperial flag to the ashes of history... At that time, where will the Minas family go? Duke of Minas, what choice will he make? Should he burn with the Kronma family? Or will he make a compromise helpless way to preserve the continuation of his family?"

Speaking of this, Hughes raised his finger and ended the conversation. His last few words made the girls feel shocked.

"Believe me, I understand the 'nobles'. For the nobles, the primary thing is not 'loyalty'. Although they like to talk about these all day long, for real wealthy nobles, in any case, ensuring the continuation of the family is the first choice! When the Kronma family perishes, will there really be so many people willing to bury them with them? I am very interested in seeing it!"
