Jin Guo glanced at Ariel next to him who was very abiding by his identity, nodded, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, you mean... give her some rewards?"

Meng Lang smiled and said: "Exactly. Hmm... I want to know, when she made a bet with you and my father, did she agree on what price she would have to pay if she lost?"

Jin Guo laughed, patted his thigh, and said: "The price? Your Highness is really joking. What can a servant give as a price? I have said it many times just now, this bet is just a

It's just a joke, just a conversation after dinner. I, and even His Majesty, must have never taken this bet seriously, so we don't care at all what kind of punishment this servant can get. Now that she has proven that she can do anything.

No, I think this fact should be enough."

Ariel nodded slowly and said with a smile: "Thank you, sir. I deeply apologize for my rude behavior in the past three years."

Seeing that the maid had completely surrendered, Chao Xiang smiled and said, "Brother, what reward do you want to give her?"

After thinking for a while, Meng Lang said: "Well, although she unfortunately failed to fulfill the agreement, she has earned more than 900 gold coins anyway. As a reward, I want to exempt her from her humble status and will

She returned to the common people."

"Ariel used to serve as a maid to your fiancée. As a dowry, she is also yours. Now that she has returned to the civilian class, I want her to be able to live in the world both in a substantial sense and in a status sense.

Become your mistress. What do you think?"

Menglang's words seemed a bit sudden, and Tide here seemed a little surprised by the proposal and began to think about it.

At this point, Duke Jinguo thought for a while and said: "Your Highness, the Second Prince, I think there should be no problem with this."

Chao Xiang turned around and looked at Duke Jinguo with a puzzled look on his face: "You think it's okay too?"

Duke Jinguo nodded and said with a smile: "As His Highness said, Ariel is already yours. Although she can accompany His Highness only as a dowry, sometimes it is not very convenient when attending some formal occasions.

Convenience. For example, when my little girl becomes pregnant and becomes inconvenient in the future, if His Highness needs to attend some formal occasions, it will always seem a bit inferior for you to go out with a maid. In comparison, it will be better to bring a mistress. "

The second prince's eyes rolled slightly, and then he laughed and said: "Father-in-law, you are afraid that I will take other mistresses out in the future, so you arranged this maid by my side in advance so that it can be convenient for you to take my place.

Is your daughter spying on me? Hahaha! You can rest assured of this! Your daughter is the most beautiful woman in our empire. It’s too late for me to love her. How can I be partial to others?”

Duke Jinguo still had a smile on his face and waved his hand: "His Highness is joking, I am completely thinking about His Highness's identity."

Seeing this, Chao Xiang had no objection and said with a smile: "Okay! Since the emperor's brother and father-in-law have said so, I don't have any other objections. Hey, doll, I agree to exempt you from your humble status.

How about returning to civilian status? Are you happy?"

Ariel's crescent-shaped eyes opened, and she continued to salute the second prince slowly with a slightly toothy smile on her lips——

"Thank you, His Highness the Second Prince. It is really the greatest luck in my life that I can get rid of my lowly status and be favored by His Highness the Second Prince."

Chao Tide: "Hey~~~! Don't thank me! What do you have to thank me for? Remember that I am good to you, and you must also remember to 'express' it properly. Do you understand?"

Hearing these words, Ariel's cheeks turned slightly red, she lowered her head, with a peach blossom look on her face. Even though she was shy, she was extremely beautiful.

Here, Ariel and the second prince were flirting and laughing.

On the other side, Connor was watching all this silently.

His eyes fell on the girl who smiled so naturally and cheerfully, but the corners of her mouth twitched silently.

However, he will get used to it.

Just like what he has been telling himself for the past three years, he has long known that this fact will come, so he has long since learned to convince himself to get used to it.

Moreover, isn't it the most gratifying thing that one's own students can win a happy life?

Thinking of this, Connor forced a smile out of his mouth. After pondering for a moment, he slowly stood up, saluted to the fierce waves over there and said, "Your Highness."

"Hmm, huh? Ah, you...I remember you are..."

"Lao Tengshu, head of the Department of Economics, Connor Conservative. Since the principal is not here today, the department heads of several of our departments came to attend this afternoon tea party on behalf of the principal."

Meng Lang nodded slightly and said, "Oh~~~Yes, what's the matter with you?"

With a smile on his face, Connor glanced at Ariel next to him and said with a smile: "Here, first of all, I would like to congratulate His Highness the Second Prince on having such a beautiful fiancée and such a smart and moving mistress. In addition, about

After listening to what you just said for a while, I would like to add a few more suggestions."

Menglang: "You said?"

Connor raised his head slightly and said with a smile: "With the royal status of His Highness the Second Prince, even his mistress must have a distinguished status. Since Ms. Garcia is no longer a lowly person, it is better for His Highness to take her place."

Your Majesty, how about giving Ms. Garcia the noble title of Baron? In this way, His Highness the Second Prince will not bring a common girl out and make people gossip. Only when Ms. Garcia has the status of a noble, can she

With a little qualification, you can become the mistress of the royal family."

Having said this, Connor didn't wait for others around him to object, but quickly said——

"But in this case, the mistress has a title of nobility, but the main wife has no title at all. Isn't it ridiculous? Therefore, I also suggest here that the quasi-imperial concubine should also be given a title of nobility. Her title cannot be consistent with her status.

The same as Ms. Garcia, the mistress, cannot usurp her father's status. Therefore, you can choose one of the three nobles, son, uncle, and marquis, to give us the future second princess."

Duke Jinguo, who originally wanted to express some objections, immediately closed his mouth after hearing these words and just smiled.

After thinking for a while, Chao Xiang turned his head and looked at the prince next to him. After thinking for a moment, the prince also said: "That's true. My wife has also inherited her father's title of baron. There is no reason for my brother to

The woman's status is mediocre. Tide, Jinguo, if you two have no objections, then I will give Ariel the noble status of Baron and the status of Count Alice, what do you think?"

It is just an identity, and it is an identity that has no real power at all and is just an honorary identity. This will certainly not be any problem for Chao Tide and Jin Guo.

At that moment, Menglang nodded slowly, walked out of his desk, picked up his sword, walked up to Ariel with a smile, and said: "Ariel, from today on, I will exempt you from your humble status and restore your status."

Civilian status. At the same time, in view of your wonderful deeds in the past three years, I now replace my father, the respected King Azure Twelve, and grant you the title of Baron."

Ariel immediately knelt in front of Meng Lang, and the crown prince pulled out his sword, lightly tapped Ariel's shoulders and head, and said with a smile -

"Congratulations, Ariel. You are probably the only one in the world who has been able to reach the status of a noble from the status of a maid."

"Thank you for your compliment, Your Highness." Ariel stood up slowly, with the smile on her face still like a flower, "From now on, I will serve His Highness the Second Prince and His Highness the Princess-to-be with double my heart, and I will never dare to have any disobedience.

I only hope that His Highness the Second Prince and His Highness the Princess-to-be can love each other and grow old together. This will be the greatest happiness in my life, Ariel Garcia."

"good very good!"

Menglang put away his sword and returned to his seat amidst the cheers of Connor beside him, who was applauding and quietly wiping the corners of his eyes.

Ariel, who had received the title of noble, now slowly took a step forward and said with a smile: "Your Highness the Crown Prince, Your Highness the Second Prince, it's already getting late, but I still want to ask you something about it.

Regarding the strange car made by the Elemental Machine, as well as the progress of all subsequent developments of the Elemental Machine. I wonder what His Highness... thinks?"

Finally... I finally asked this question.

Although Ariel knows that her so-called baron status is just a decoration, what she needs to do is still the kind of work of serving and taking care of the eldest lady and the second prince. But seeing the sun outside the window gradually turning to the west, if she is not there today

If she finished talking about this matter here, she would be really afraid that she would never have the opportunity to talk about it again.

Obviously, Meng Lang, who was behind the desk, was slightly stunned by Ariel's proposal, and then he held his chin and started thinking.

"Well, Ariel, I agree with you. I'm afraid we really need to discuss the issue of your car now... Also, what do you call your car? Elemental machine?"

Ariel nodded slightly, but just when she was about to speak...

Ta-ta-ta-

There was another gentle knock on the door.

Immediately, a soldier's voice came: "Your Highness, the high priest and the chief elder want to see you."
