Seeing that the tide was getting excited, Norris immediately happily moved forward and continued: "That's nature, that's nature! Moreover, since we are also close to the Mermaid Song, there are many song and dance troupes here.

It's more or less based on that prototype, and I made some adaptations that may be... not very appropriate. It's just me... I don't know much about musicals, I just want to watch them for fun. So I hope you, the original author, can

Go and give them some pointers, let them understand how out of date their adaptation is, and everything must be according to the original version!"

In response, Chao Xiang raised his hand and said cheerfully: "That's not necessary. Although I wrote this play, the essence of a play is that it can be adapted from time to time and added according to the characteristics of various places.

Deletion. Throughout the ages, many dramas dare not say that they have not changed a word from the beginning to the present. It can be said that modification is the way to keep a drama rejuvenated!"

"So, I agree with the modification. And I also respect those musical actors. At least, they know how to adapt and perform it better than you, a guy who knows nothing."

Along with the laughter, Norris felt that the prince in front of him seemed to be in a much better mood.

Such a good mood should of course be paired with a sumptuous and delicious dinner, and you should also enjoy some unique entertainment activities after the dinner, right?

At that moment, Norris felt that the whole world suddenly became clear. The terrible feeling of needing to face the imperial army that had been bothering him for the past two months also disappeared. The most important thing now is to think carefully about how to deal with the situation in the future.

Get promoted in the Blue Bay Empire and make your path smoother.

So, he also laughed.

He laughed very cheerfully, and even laughed very loudly along with the prince.

The whole office is filled with a cheerful atmosphere, like an old friend reunited after a long absence, warm and warm...

Pelican City, Mermaid Song Guild.

Today, a very special guest came here.

When this guest appeared silently at the gate of the guild, everyone in the guild became alert and on serious alert. It seemed that the appearance of this person in front of him represented a kind of declaration of war, and even more ominous.

breath.

However, the guest himself looked very helpless, with a shy smile on his face and a bit of restraint in his movements. In contrast, the ten bodyguards accompanying him looked normal.

More... well, they all look very serious and fully armed.

Welcomed by Ariel, these people entered the guild hall.

At the same time, in order to prevent pedestrians outside from having any "misunderstanding" about the situation here, the guild door was also closed.

Immediately afterwards, Ariel heard something that made her feel unclear whether she should find it funny or helpless.

"I...became an earl?"

Ariel sat on the sofa, pointed at her nose, and asked slightly surprised.

The person sitting in front of her was none other than the tax collector who had always taken care of Pelican City. Now, he obviously came with work other than taxation. It just seemed that he was more serious than before.

He shrunk his hands and feet.

The tax officer glanced at the members of Mermaid Song behind Ariel, couldn't help laughing, and said: "Yes, this is your majesty's official appointment letter. You can take a look at it, my lord."

With that said, the tax officer took out a carefully packed parchment scroll from his arms and handed it to Suta next to him. Suta opened it and took a cursory glance to confirm that there was no magic that would be activated after opening it.

Passed it on to Ariel.

Ariel took the appointment letter and took a look at it. Indeed, the title of earl was indeed conferred on her. And the seal was indeed the emperor's seal of the Blue Bay Empire, and even had the autograph of Menglang Bilan.

Ariel was full of doubts about this promotion. But it was not convenient for her to show it directly now. Instead, she calmly rolled up the appointment letter and handed it to Coco next to her. After getting the appointment letter,

After that, he quickly opened it and read it carefully and repeatedly. At the same time, he also showed it to Margaux, Brad, Parfait, Tesla, Egg, and Jelly next to him. All the members were surprised by this.

"I have received the letter of appointment. However, with my current status as a rebel, it seems that I should not accept the knighthood reward from the Blue Bay Empire, right?"

Ariel nodded slightly and looked at the tax official in front of her.

The sound in the guild hall naturally spread to the second floor. Sweet wine cheese was in her room recovering from her injuries. Now after hearing the sound, she opened the door and walked out. She covered the wound on her stomach and came carefully.

Go to the guardrail and look at the situation below.

The tax official naturally laughed and said: "Your Majesty, look at what you said! Since His Majesty is now willing to give you the title of Earl, it is obvious that Your Majesty has never thought of treating you as a rebel. What's in this?

Relationship, I believe that someone as smart as Lord Earl will not think of this, right?"

Ariel tilted her head slightly and glanced from the tax collector in front of her to the guards behind him.

She has seen some of these guards before. There is no doubt that they are all royal knights who once played important guard roles in Hanhai City. Each one of them is a first-class expert.

But now, the faces of these experts also have a slightly nervous atmosphere, and they don't seem to quite understand what kind of state they should be in now.

It's no wonder that Ariel Garcia is now a count. If the count of the Blue Bay Empire wants to kill the tax collector who comes to give the reward, should the guards do it or not?

After a quick glance, Ariel's eyes returned to the tax collector's face, and the smile filled the girl's face again, and she said slowly: "His Majesty, the Emperor, does not want to treat us as rebels? Then the Emperor

What does Your Majesty want me to be?"

The tax officer lost his smile and continued: "Needless to say? Of course I treat you as a family member! After all, you are originally a family member of the royal family. I believe there must be some misunderstanding! Such a misunderstanding led to the final change of things.

It has reached this stage.”

"However, although there is a misunderstanding, Your Majesty believes that the misunderstanding can be resolved! Therefore, Your Majesty hopes to resolve this misunderstanding with you. You see, because Your Majesty knows that I have had contact with the Earl before,

Didn’t you send me specifically to discuss these matters with you?”

As the mayor of Pelican City, the president of Mermaid Song, and the former slave of Duke Jinguo, should Ariel agree with this kindness now?

Think about it carefully...this is actually a very funny thing.

Why? Because it’s not like Ariel has never believed in the royal family.

Do you still remember the bet? Do you still remember the promise of one thousand gold coins?

Ever since that incident, Ariel had solemnly told herself that she should never put her expectations above the pity of those in high positions.

Now, Menglang Bilan obviously has no intention of coming over to directly confront him. So it is conceivable that the situation in the Blue Bay Empire must be very bad, which makes him feel that he can appease his side first and let his side take the lead.

Don't make trouble, wait until he settles other things before you deal with yourself.

Oh, do you believe in the royal family’s promise?

Believe in royal accolades?

Title of nobility? Promotion to earl?

Now, with just such a piece of paper, a so-called reward, you want to take away everything in your hands? Is it that easy?

Thinking of this, Ariel naturally remained firm in her heart. However, she could not immediately show a look of rejection on her face, but continued to smile and said: "I see, I understand your Majesty's thoughts. Well, if that's okay,

, I don’t want to have too much trouble with His Majesty. If Your Majesty decides not to interfere with my affairs anymore, I don’t mind accepting His Majesty’s kindness.”

Seeing a smile on Ariel's face, the tax officer immediately felt relieved. Maybe he felt that there was hope? Then he said immediately: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty! I knew that Your Majesty Earl would not

I want to make things bigger! It would be great if His Majesty’s intention can be conveyed!”

Ariel nodded, and then pointed to the second floor, just in time to point to the sweet wine cheese leaning on the armrest on the second floor: "Then, in order to express my sincerity, Her Royal Highness Princess Blue, please go back."

Following Ariel's finger, the tax official raised his head and happened to see the girl leaning on the armrest.

Of course, the tax official had never seen mulled cheese before. Now that he suddenly saw this ordinary-looking girl, he seemed a little hesitant for a moment.

Similarly, Sweet Wine Cheese suddenly heard that he was being let go, and his face was also stunned.

"Who is this……?"

Facing the tax officer's inquiry, Ariel smiled slightly and said: "You heard it right, this is the eldest princess of the Blue Bay Empire, Sweet Wine Cheese Blue. Although you didn't say it just now, I think,

It should be one of your tasks to welcome the eldest princess back, right? Hey, Sweet Wine Cheese, you can go back. Go back to the room to pack your things and get ready to leave. Oh, and also, go to Guang Zhongguang’s room to see

Take a look and see if the old man wants to leave? You can all go."

It took a long time for Sweet Wine Cheese on the second floor to recover from the shock. Seeing that this woman not only let him go, but also let Baron Paladin Guangzhongguang with the Imperial Cavalry Regiment go, he couldn't help but feel

Even more surprised!

After all...after all, she is the eldest princess of the royal family! Before that, she was convinced that Mermaid Song imprisoned her to use her as a hostage and as a bargaining chip to negotiate with the empire!

But now, a dignified eldest princess like herself is kicked out by this woman like a piece of trash. She has no intention of imprisoning her brother to negotiate terms. Such contempt...such neglect.

!It’s just...I really don’t treat her like a princess anymore!

"You...you never thought of respecting me from the beginning to the end? Right...?!"

Faced with Ariel's "contempt", Rummy's teeth clenched slightly. Her hands gripped the armrest tightly, her eyes fixed on Ariel below, as if she was about to burst into flames.

Ariel still seemed relaxed and said with a smile: "What's the matter of respect and disrespect? You can leave. Why are you talking so much nonsense? Go back and pack your things and prepare to leave. Our economy in Pelican City has been relatively tight recently. You can stay here."

Eating white rice here gives me a headache."

With a crash, the rummy cheese on the second floor suddenly turned over and jumped down from above.

Perhaps because she was too excited and her movements were not very correct, the moment she landed, she involuntarily covered her abdomen again, gritted her teeth, but quickly stood up and pointed at Ariel over there.

Seeing this, Brad and Coco, who were beside Ariel, slowly took two steps forward. Duck, on the other hand, changed his expression and took a step towards the rum.

But at this moment, the one who stood between Sweet Cheese and Ariel was a young figure with one arm.

Jelly Fresh.

He stood silently less than three steps away from Sweet Wine Cheese. He held two iron coins in his left hand and put them back in his pocket. The expression on his face looked a little nervous, but he still looked like he wanted to give it a try.

"Get out of the way! Crippled!"
