Until now, marquis Elizabeth found that he was sleeping in Murphy''s room last night, and Murphy himself made do with it in his study.
The hard bed board under her body makes her enjoy the delicate body of the soft mattress and feel very uncomfortable, but all this can''t compare with the regret and chagrin in her heart at the moment. Today, in the meaning of Murphy, marquis Elizabeth was arranged by the governor''s house housekeeper to rest in the room of an ordinary entourage. At this moment, she realized that the luxurious room last night was actually given to her by the young Lord.
But it''s really late to find out.
Now, she knew that the young Lord was very polite to him at first. He even let his room out and made do with it in the study for one night. However, in his rude questioning and impolite request, the young Lord was obviously very disappointed. Today''s actions made him lose his favor, and even made him feel disgusted.
At the thought of this, the Marquis Elizabeth could not stop regretting.
Without today''s wrong actions, with his initial good will and his excellent communication skills, I am afraid that in a few days, I will be able to gain the trust of the young Lord, and even use his strength to form an army to recapture the lost territory.
But now it''s a little late to think about all this.
Because after bathing tonight, the housekeeper of the viceroy''s house no longer prepared a robe made of silver thread and soft silk for her, but a very ordinary cotton robe. The gorgeous dress prepared for her yesterday was also taken back by the maids of the governor''s house. Now placed in her bedside, is a red cotton dress. The old collocation hardly wished to live. Elizabeth''s wife was not the only one who could wear such a dress that was what the woodlouse broke out.
Because I have, it is more painful to lose.
The supplies in Athens were not abundant, so the maids in the viceroy''s house carried out Murphy''s orders better.
They prepared a room for the Marquis Elizabeth to sleep in for ordinary servants, and then took back all the silk goods that had been given to her before, but only the daily necessities for her to be treated as a maid.
This is tantamount to the Marquis Elizabeth into a trough.
But just one day, that day, the poor treatment has told her, in Murphy''s heart has been classified into unwelcome characters.
It was only because of his noble status and good education that he did not expel himself from the town.
No, no!
We have to find a way to get closer to him.
Otherwise, they would have to wait for the aristocratic Council to divide up their territory.
The Marquis of Elizabeth held her arms around her chest, then curled up with her delicate body, biting her lips, silently thinking about how to recover the stiff relationship with Murphy.
A cold wind blew by, and the Marquis of Elizabeth trembled. She stretched out her hand and pulled some thin quilts over her body.
The newly built towns lack too many materials. Even the governor''s office can''t afford too many luxury goods like glass at present. The only pieces of colored glass and colored glaze in the town were decorated in Murphy''s room, while the windows of other rooms in the governor''s mansion were mostly nailed up with cloth and paper. In this relatively cold season, those ordinary townspeople''s rooms are simply nailed with wooden boards.
The window paper of the room seems to be a little damaged, and gusts of cold wind are blowing in from the damaged hole.
The wind outside the window is stronger. There seems to be a heavy rain tonight.
The cold wind is howling and the rain is coming!
At this moment, the Marquis, who once made countless nobles in the southern plain covet, is curling up in a corner of the hard bedplate, looking out of the window at the thunderstorm with a look of horror. She can''t help recalling the luxurious and comfortable life in the past, and the big tears can''t stop falling from her face.
At this moment, the woman with the title of "Purple thorn flower" is like a poor kitten abandoned by its owner.
"Bang bang!"
Just as the Marquis of Elizabeth was pitying herself, there was a quick knock on the door.
Some of them flurried away the tears from her face, and when the Marquis of Elizabeth finished her clothes and got up, she became the elegant and leisurely lady of the past.
Outside the door was the housekeeper of the governor''s house. This middle-aged woman, who made Lady Elizabeth''s teeth itch with hatred, handed a quilt to the marquis in front of her, and then said faintly, "tonight''s thunderstorm, the governor asked me to add a quilt for you."
With that, the middle-aged housekeeper no longer looked at her and turned to leave.
With a quilt, there is a sense of warmth on the body. There is a quilt, but no longer need to sleep on the hard bed.
Outside the house, the wind was blowing, but Marquis Elizabeth, who was lying in a warm quilt, did not know why. She missed Murphy''s big bed, which was covered with a soft velvet quilt and could roll around without worrying about falling down
The next day, Murphy got up early.
Because the houses were built on the basis of abandoned towns, Murphy received a report from the herald the next day. Last night, there were many houses in the town leaking rain, which needed to be repaired.
The manpower was soon arranged.
At the beginning, the purpose of building houses was to pursue efficiency and build a safe place as soon as possible. So in terms of quality, there is no control, as long as it doesn''t collapse. However, a thunderstorm happened last night, but many problems were detected. Many corners of the houses were not properly handled, and there were many places with rain leakage. What''s more serious is that it rains heavily outside and light rain inside.
Three teams of Greek infantry trained by new general Hammerton have been initially completed today. They will take over the defense of the Athens town from those veterans, and at the same time maintain the security of the town, the next training will be arranged by the new general Hamilton.
At dawn, Murphy drank porridge and rushed to the temple of Athena, the goddess of wisdom.
In the process of going to the temple, he got a clerk in exchange and asked him to prepare enough bread and dried meat. As long as the holy water was made, Murphy would immediately send troops to clean up the scattered gathering place of jackals. Although we don''t need to take too much food, we still have to have a certain amount of meat and ration for one day''s March!
"Your Excellency." When Murphy arrived at the temple, the high priest waited for him at the temple gate as if he had expected.
The air after the rain has a fresh breath, and the soft and beautiful woman with a smile in front of her seems to have a refreshing smell.
Murphy was slightly absent-minded, but soon recovered.
"How is the holy water prepared?" Today, Murphy is wearing a silver body armor and a sharp sword. Although her appearance is not mature and steady, she has a strong momentum.
"Last night the priests made eight ounces of holy water overnight. From today on, holy water will be provided steadily. " The high priest reached out and gently lifted the long dark hair on his forehead. This very feminine move made Murphy''s heart beat. There was a trace of fatigue on her soft face, and a drop of water hung at the end of her hair. It seems that I just washed my face with clear water to get rid of the tiredness of the night.
Murphy unconsciously reached out to wipe the water from the top of the high priest''s hair, and then said gently, "hard work."
This slightly intimate gesture made the white face of the high priest blush. She quietly stepped back, her head slightly turned away, but she could not see her expression clearly.
Eight ounces of holy water is about half a pound, which is a little more than four Liang, less than half a Jin.
The color of holy water is milky white. It is placed in front of the statue of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, in a small basin made of pure white marble.
This magical milky white liquid gives off a faint smell of oil, which makes people feel shocked!
This is the most natural oil flavor, which is different from the flavor of later blended oils. This is similar to the smell of animal cooking oil, with a very attractive fragrance.
Vegetable oil is more suitable for modern people who don''t exercise much. However, in terms of delicacy, it''s the most fragrant oil made by animals!
"Sonorous!"
Murphy drew the sword from his waist and made a small cut in the palm of his left hand.
A trace of blood drips down the palm, the high priest looks a little inexplicable, want to say something, but it stopped.
A little milk white holy water was applied to the wound on the palm of his left hand, and murphyton took a breath of cool air!
This holy water can be applied externally and orally. However, oral administration is mostly used to treat diseases, while external application is mostly used for wound healing. Drinking holy water to treat wounds is obviously unreliable, because the energy absorbed by the human body is automatically distributed to the whole body. The best way to treat trauma is to use holy water for external application.
But Murphy just applied holy water to the wound, and felt a burst of hot pain!
It felt like it was smeared with high concentration alcohol!
But strange to say, as soon as the holy water was applied, the wound stopped bleeding, and when the hot pain disappeared, the wound was cool. Cool feeling spread to the whole palm, then a little bit of crisp itching feeling.
That kind of feeling, like usually where less piece of meat, scar shell, is long meat like crisp itching feeling.
About a quarter of an hour, the itchy feeling disappeared.
Murphy peeled off a blood cocoon in the palm, and found that new meat had grown inside, only a shallow white mark was flowing down the palm!
"Good! Good! Very good The amazing healing effect of holy water made Murphy very happy. He couldn''t help saying several good things one after another, and his face was full of joy. Holy water has such a powerful healing effect that his soldiers will be able to fight the jackals freely.
The high priest slowly approached Murphy with a wisp of fragrance. She leaned down to Murphy''s earlobe and said in a soft voice, "governor, although holy water has a strong therapeutic effect, it is also a great burden on the body. Using too much will affect the life span of human beings. "
Murphy''s face sank, and then a little suddenly.
Indeed, the world maintains a relative balance. If we get something, we must pay something. I''m afraid that such a powerful healing effect is probably at the cost of extracting the latent vitality of the human body?
"Don''t pass on these things." Murphy put his lips close to the white earlobe of the high priest and said slowly, "it''s better than letting my soldiers die on the battlefield now!"
The high priest nodded, then found that his attitude with Murphy seemed too intimate, and quietly stepped back.
Eight ounces of holy water, enough to support a small battle.
Murphy ordered his entourage to fill the holy water with jade bottles, and then issued the order to assemble the army without hesitation!
Today!
He finally wants to wave his spear and tell the jackals who are the real hunters!
