Chapter 254 That’s What I Want

From that day on, Liz began to frequently appear on the ring outside the gate of Franzel's mansion, challenging Rieger again and again.

Even if Li Ge no longer gives up the right to take the initiative, no longer shows mercy, and defeats her with a flash of lightning, the little princess will still appear the next day and attack Li Ge firmly and tenaciously.

This allowed Liz to start to accumulate a lot of popularity.

Originally, as a reclusive princess, Liz became famous after becoming a master swordsman, but very few people had seen her. Even her brothers and sisters rarely saw her, let alone outsiders. .

Therefore, Liz's appearance like this did not reveal her identity. Except for some well-informed nobles who knew through various channels that this young swordsman was the ninth princess of the kingdom, the rest only regarded Liz as a fledgling swordsman. scholar.

But Liz's display and performance in the ring changed many people's views on this seemingly weak and weak young swordsman.

Her sword skills, which are more outstanding than those of ordinary swordsmen, her dreamlike beauty, and her figure that belies her appearance, have made many swordsmen and even civilians completely become her supporters and fans.

As a result, in just a few days, Liz's popularity and reputation were comparable to that of Li Ge, the youngest swordsman in history. Ge's arena became two or three times more lively than before.

This is a development that Li Ge did not expect, and it is also a development that Liz probably did not expect.

Sometimes, when she failed in the challenge, she just wanted to leave dejectedly, but as soon as she got off the ring, she was suddenly surrounded by countless people, which scared the little princess.

Some aristocratic children even had their eyes sparkling after seeing Liz. They did not hide the desire in their eyes at all. When Liz left, they even followed her with others. Everyone knew what they had planned, but these The person disappeared completely the next day, and even their family suffered inexplicable suppression. They were either demoted or paid a heavy price. What's more, some were charged with some crimes overnight and were sent to prison. , causing quite a disturbance in the royal capital.

Some nobles who were unaware of Liz's identity realized that the origin of this young swordsman might not be simple, so they severely restrained their unruly second-generation ancestors, not allowing them to offend Liz at will.

Of course, these things have nothing to do with Li Ge.

Li Ge only felt a headache.

The little princess persisted in challenging every day, then left dejectedly after being defeated, and then came back tenaciously and resolutely the next day. What exactly was her intention, Li Ge naturally knew.

Obviously, the little princess has not given up yet, or in other words, the royal family has not withdrawn its order from her, and still wants her to become its attendant.

However, the little princess seemed to be missing the point. She neither bothered Li Ge nor made any pleas. Instead, she challenged Li Ge silently. After failing, she left silently. Each time, she came over with a firm and weak look on her face, and then another look on her face. Leaving frustrated and lost, it was okay this time and twice, Li Ge could still be cruel, but once more times, he really couldn't bear it.

Once, Li Ge even found that the little princess's hands were bruised and bloody, as if she had undergone very intensive swordsmanship training.

It was obvious that every time Liz failed in a challenge and left, she would go back and practice hard, and her practice level was extremely high.

This made Li Ge frown and felt even more headache.

After half a month like this, Li Ge finally couldn't help it and stopped Liz after a challenge.

"What are you doing?"

Li Ge said this to Liz.

In response, Liz just held the sword, lowered her head, and said something very quietly.

"I only know how to swing a sword, and I can only swing a sword."

With just this sentence, Li Ge was speechless.

Needless to say, the royal family did not take back the order and allowed Liz to continue working hard to become Li Ge's attendant.

But Liz didn't know what to do to succeed, and she was not good at words. She was helpless and could only choose to work hard in the way she was best at and most familiar with.

She only knows how to swing a sword, and she only knows how to swing a sword.

Therefore, she could only insist on challenging Li Ge every day. If she lost, she would go back and continue to practice swordsmanship. After practicing, she would continue to challenge Lige. Over and over again, she persevered and persevered tenaciously.

It's clumsy, no doubt about it.

There is no doubt that this is foolish.

But she could only do this, and she could only think of doing this.

Li Ge couldn't describe his mood at this moment, so he could only sigh and ended today's challenge in the ring.

After returning to the mansion, Li Ge walked in the corridor with his brows furrowed, not knowing what he was thinking.

Then, he met someone at the corner of the corridor.

"Mr. Rieger."

Marilyn pushed the tea trolley and appeared from the corner, and gave a slight salute to Li Ge.

"Marilyn?" Li Ge came back to his senses, saw Marilyn, nodded and said, "You came out of the office?"

"Yes." Marilyn said calmly: "The tea has run out, and the eldest lady happened to be concentrating on her work. I wanted to clean all the tea sets, so I came out."

Li Ge expressed his understanding.

Just when Li Ge thought the topic was over and the two of them should separate, Marilyn suddenly said something.

"Do you have time now?"

Marilyn's sudden question made Li Ge slightly startled.

"Yes, yes." Li Ge said, "What? Is there something you need me to do?"

"No." Marilyn shook her head and said, "I just wanted to say, if you have time, would you like to accompany me?"

Li Ge's expression became strange.

What does it mean?

Is this woman trying to tease me?

Li Ge had to be so suspicious.

Although he didn't know the reason, Li Ge knew that this maid seemed to dislike him.

The evidence is that the maid often glares at Yuli behind her back. Although she doesn't look bitter and resentful, the displeasure in her eyes can be seen.

This maid is usually taciturn. Except for Yuli, she is indifferent to everyone else. She is as cold as an ice cube.

Now, when the other party suddenly said something like this, Li Gebu couldn't help but think more about it.

Maybe Marilyn was also aware of it. After seeing the strange expression on Li Ge's face, she finally glared at him again.

"I just want to talk to you about Her Majesty Liz."

Marilyn explained why.

"she?"

Li Ge showed a stunned expression, and the look he looked at Marilyn became meaningful.

Would you actually talk to me alone about the princess?

It seems that this maid is indeed...

"Aren't you still going to accept Her Majesty Liz as your attendant?"

When Li Ge confirmed a certain fact, Marilyn asked him this question.

Li Ge raised his head and glanced at Marilyn, finding that she still looked expressionless, as if she was talking about a stranger.

This made Li Ge ponder for a while, and then he spoke.

"I've already said that I have no reservations as an attendant, and I don't want to be bound by some inexplicable restrictions."

Li Ge has always said this, and has always thought this way.

In fact, the main reason is still the latter.

"I don't like the feeling of using a contract to force me to do what I should and shouldn't do." Li Ge shook his head and said, "So, I don't plan to talk to that little The princess enters into a servant contract.”

Originally, in this life, Li Ge had already made up his mind not to live by the rules anymore, but to walk freely on the path of his own decision.

Under such circumstances, the royal family wanted to use a contract to bind him and prevent him from doing anything, which made Li Ge instinctively feel resistance.

Marilyn didn’t quite understand Li Ge’s thoughts.

"The royal family probably just wants you to make a promise like "not to harm the kingdom." This shouldn't be such a harsh condition, right? Marilyn said: "Does Mr. Rigg think that he will be an enemy of the kingdom in the future?" "

"Who knows?" Li Ge did not deny it, and said: "At least, these so-called royal nobles have not done anything that I like so far. Who knows whether they will do anything in the future? ?”

By then, Li Ge may really become an enemy of this country.

And if someone thinks that with the existence of the contract, they will not be detrimental to the kingdom, so they can test their own bottom line crazily and do things they shouldn't do to themselves, then Li Ge will definitely not tolerate it.

In view of this, for Rige, such a contract is just something that restricts personal freedom and gives others the qualification to do whatever they want to themselves.

In this case, it is naturally impossible for him to agree to this contract, let alone the other party using a clumsy and pitiful princess as a bargaining chip.

They may feel that they have paid a high price, and even using their own princess to serve as Rige's attendant is enough sincerity.

But, have they considered Liz's feelings?

What they were selling was Liz's freedom. What they were selling was others, not themselves. This practice of buying and selling others as their own property made it impossible for Rige to have a good impression of them.

Therefore, although Li Ge couldn't bear Liz's tenacity and hard work, he still didn't think about accepting her. He just thought about whether he should go to the royal family to warn them face to face to make them give up.

"…………"

After knowing what Li Ge was thinking, Marilyn seemed to have nothing to say.

Seeing this, Li Ge asked instead.

"In your opinion, is this something acceptable?" Li Ge looked at Marilyn and said, "If you were the princess, the royal family would ask you to be someone else's attendant to achieve their goals. , will you be willing?"

Li Ge's question made Marilyn silent for a long time.

After a long time, Marilyn said something indifferently.

"If it were me, I wouldn't want it."
