Chapter 465 Princess Night Visit
At the gate of the Generous Church area, there are five marble columns on the left and right sides of the arch, with reliefs of human knights engraved on them. These reliefs symbolize the ten consuls of the Senate respectively.
At the end of the right side is a man whose face cannot be seen clearly. He is wearing a high-collared cloak outside his armor, which represents Chen Lun himself.
At this moment, the visiting carriage slowly entered the arch and advanced along the path in the middle of the lawn garden. After passing the "Speaker Statue" in the central circular rest area, it finally slowed down and gradually stopped.
Beside the cobblestone path that leads directly to Bountiful Cathedral, on a wooden bench under a streetlight, a man wearing a black flat top hat is sitting, his silver cane resting lightly on his thigh, his eyes calmly looking at the stop. The carriage coming down.
The coachman seemed to be an unsmiling middle-aged man. He just held the reins with one hand, took off his bowler hat with the other, and bowed his head to Chen Lun.
Chen Lun's eyesight was astonishing, and he easily caught the black sun tattoo on the back of the driver's hand. He couldn't help but shrink his pupils, and he immediately guessed the identity of the person in the car.
‘The Cross of the Sun…’
The coachman gently shook the bell twice, which triggered the wooden sticks extending from the top of the carriage and the windproof kerosene lamp hanging.
Ding Dong...
The light swayed and the carriage door slowly opened.
A young woman with long blond hair simply tied up and wearing a white embroidered dress got off the carriage. Her sparkling crystal flat shoes made a crisp sound as she stepped lightly on the stone pavement.
In the quiet environment, there is only the chirping of cicadas in midsummer.
As the breeze blew by, Chen Lun stood up in surprise and looked at the beautiful woman. He took a deep breath, took off his black hat, and bowed as a gentleman.
"Good night, Your Royal Highness the Princess."
"No need to be polite, Mr. Jack, this is not a formal occasion, just call me Anna."
Princess Anna raised her white hand, soothed the ends of her hair that were attracted by the breeze, and said with a smile.
"Won't you invite me to come in and sit down?"
she asked pointedly.
Chen Lun raised his eyebrows, guessing the purpose of the princess's night visit, and said politely:
"This way, please, Miss Anna."
Immediately, he led Princess Anna to the residential area. The hall on the first floor there was quite spacious and suitable for entertaining guests.
After parking the carriage, the coachman followed Princess Anna's footsteps and seemed to also serve as a bodyguard.
The three of them followed the path illuminated by street lights and passed through two gardens before arriving at the entrance of the main building of the residential area. A girl in a black and purple dress had been waiting here for a long time. When she saw Chen Lun arriving, she folded her hands on her belly and bowed slightly towards him.
Princess Anna glanced at Floy and smiled slightly.
"I saw this young lady at the ball before."
She turned to look at Chen Lun again, with a questioning look in her eyes.
Chen Lun understood and introduced slowly:
"Miss Anna, this is my...fiancée, Floy."
Floy was slightly startled, and then a blush appeared on her pretty face. The corners of her mouth raised uncontrollably, and she raised her head to stare at Chen Lun silently.
Princess Anna looked a little surprised. She nodded slightly and took Floy's hand.
"Nice to meet you, Miss Floy... You are very beautiful and a perfect match for Mr. Jack."
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness Princess."
Floy smiled.
Immediately, everyone walked through the door together and sat down on the sofa in the living room, while Floy walked to the kitchen consciously, intending to make a pot of hot tea to entertain this distinguished guest.
"Miss Anna, I wonder what's the purpose of your visit at night?"
Chen Lun took off his hat, put it on the table, and asked politely.
Princess Anna gave him a meaningful look, but instead of speaking directly, she talked about past events:
"When I was very young, I could see many fragments of the future through my dreams. I didn't care about it at first, but as I grew up, I found that these fragments had become reality one by one. From then on, I knew that this was an innate talent... similar to prediction? Or was it some kind of destiny guidance?"
She shook her head.
"My father scorned the so-called 'fate', even to the point of hating it, so I never told him about it... But I saw you in my dream a long time ago, Mr. Jack. ”
Princess Anna watched Chen Lun quietly.
Chen Lun's eyes narrowed.
He secretly thought that he was the kind of person who was guided by fate again. Alex had received such guidance and helped him find "Farmer Dolim" and warned him about the red disaster.
Now Princess Anna came directly to the door and told him frankly that she had seen him in her dream. That "sense of doomed fate" emerged again, which made Chen Lun feel bored.
"What did you see in your dream?"
Chen Lun asked calmly.
"Catastrophe..."
Anna said softly.
"A catastrophe that can destroy the world. When the dark age comes, a pale dragon will cut through the sky, bringing boundless light of hope, just like the sun... And you, either that dragon, or in the light A member, in short, of irreplaceable importance.”
Chen Lun frowned slightly. What the princess said was neither accurate nor meaningful. It was a complete "riddler".
He was silent for a few seconds.
"Miss Anna, as the legitimate daughter of the Sun Royal Family and the daughter of the Sun King, is it inappropriate to compare others to the sun?"
"There is no need to be so nervous, Mr. Jack. Even if the father knows that I said this, he will not be angry... He is a tolerant emperor."
Princess Anna smiled.
"Moreover, many years ago, another sun appeared, but..."
She shook her head and stopped talking.
At this time, Floy came over with a teapot and poured a cup for everyone. Princess Anna thanked her and immediately glanced at Chen Lun.
"Floy, sit next to me."
Chen Lun smiled and waved, telling the princess with his actions that Floy was someone he trusted and there was no need to be defensive.
Princess Anna nodded.
"Mr. Jack, you should know that Prince Dazlet was assassinated today, right?"
Although Chen Lun was a little surprised that she called his brother such a name, he nodded calmly on the surface.
"Of course... I happened to be riding in a carriage with His Highness the Prince at the time. I was at the scene when the attack occurred and witnessed the whole process with my own eyes."
Princess Anna took a sip of tea and said calmly:
"I warned you not to get too close to him...and now you're in big trouble."
Chen Lun thought that the snake parasitism he had planted was inexplicably disconnected. He glanced at the groom behind the princess intentionally or unintentionally, and said tentatively:
"The Cross of the Sun?"
A look of surprise suddenly flashed across Princess Anna's delicate face.
But she quickly controlled her facial expression and took a deep look at Chen Lun.
"You know?"
Chen Lun nodded silently.
More than just knowing...
He even knew the background of the members of the Sun Cross Society. Queen Kaplan once told him that the "Lightborn" descendants of the underground criminals through normal reproduction came to the surface with the mission of saving their hometown and formed such a secret organization.
But Chen Lun couldn't understand why they would assassinate the prince.
Princess Anna was silent for a few seconds, seeming to be thinking about something.
Then, she raised her head and said to Chen Lun:
"The extraordinary methods you left behind have been noticed by them and have aroused their vigilance and hostility. The Sun Cross Society is now planning to eliminate you and silence you..."
"I'm not afraid."
Chen Lun took a sip of tea and said with a chuckle.
"They even dare to assassinate princes. Even if you are backed by the Generous Council and are a member of the Imperial Tribunal, it is not enough to make them afraid... Or are you very confident in your own strength? But there are high-ranking saints in the Sun Cross Society. You have no chance of winning, Mr. Jack.”
Princess Anna frowned slightly, as if she was stating a fact.
Originally, Chen Lun was a little confused about the princess's purpose, but now after hearing what the other party said, he was basically sure.
'She wants to win me over...'
Chen Lun thought to himself.
He put down the teacup, smiled and said:
"This is also the reason why you came to visit me personally, isn't it? I think Her Royal Highness the Princess already has a solution."
"Talking to smart people really saves time and effort..."
Princess Anna nodded.
She looked directly into Chen Lun's eyes with a serious expression.
"Mr. Jack, you are in a very dangerous situation now. How about helping me? I can help you eliminate the hidden dangers of the Sun Cross Society."
Chen Lun pretended to be in deep thought.
"What do you want from me? Your Highness."
"Now is not the time. When the time comes, I hope you will support me unconditionally..."
Princess Anna said.
An idea suddenly burst into Chen Lun's mind: fight for inheritance rights?
He immediately wiped the thought away.
Because it doesn't make any sense.
The ruler of the Cuisul Empire is not a monarch of an ordinary dynasty...
That's Emperor Andrei!
At the very least, he is a high-ranking angel at the second level of the sequence! In ancient times, it was just following God! The king who has lived for thousands of years and ruled the entire solar era has a lifespan that is incalculable. How could it be the crown prince's turn to succeed?
Unless He steps aside, which is highly unlikely to happen.
"Your Highness, I don't even know the details, how can I support you unconditionally? At least reveal some information so that I can have a vague idea?"
Chen Lun said helplessly.
Princess Anna seemed to realize that the words she said were too vague to be believed by the other party, so she began to think deeply.
At this time, the coachman behind him whispered a reminder:
"Princess, it is not appropriate to reveal..."
Ana raised her hand to interrupt the other party, indicating that she understood.
After weighing the pros and cons, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mr. Jack, as a sign of sincerity, I can tell you a few more things, but please don't let me down..."
She said, always paying attention to Chen Lun's expression.
"Actually, I am the current leader of the Sun Cross Society." (End of Chapter)
