Chapter 176
I'll exchange myself
Sophia was wearing Shu Yuer's palace makeup and sat in front of the dressing table in her room. She stared blankly at herself in the mirror.
She hadn't eaten anything for several days, and her face was pale and she felt like she had a serious illness. Too much crying made her eyes lose her cheerful look, and even her long red hair looked listless and scattered.
The news sent to her was from his father, a knight from Spain. He was a Catholic, and perhaps for this reason, he was released and brought back the news that had kept her wandering to this day.
She didn't know who to ask for help, but her stepmother was already with the governor of Bershall, and even the news of her father's capture did not cause any grief.
She dared not say that there would be any conspiracy when her father was sent to fight the crusaders, but was it so coincidental? Her father left for Baghdad to attend the imperial meeting, and the governor of Blasaro came here later.
As one of the few provinces that truly loyal to the Caliphate of Baghdad, the province of Kot has long been stubborn to the Caliphate of Baghdad, and Governor Bosaro was thorny in the eyes of Governor Bosaro. After all, when the interests paid to the Caliphate were so different, Sophia's father had blocked the way for others to make money.
"God, please bless me, please make that Zhao promise to save my father. Maybe..."
The confidence in Zhao Fubo did not come from his gun technique. The last time Sophia participated in the bandit suppression battle that she was personally impressed. This was also the only person she could think of to help her when she was panicked and helpless.
She never thought that Zhao Fubo would organize an army and need another name to participate in that war. In her appearance, Zhao Fubo only needed to lead a small team of people, then tried to sneak into the castle, and then used his "Sky Thunder" to let the crusaders see it carefully, and then rescued her father smoothly.
We must say that a girl who has never been to war often imagines the lives of the knights too romantic, or their understanding of the battlefield will definitely not exceed their liking for skirts.
It doesn't matter, because she thinks she's found the right person. At least Sophia has heard Juliana tell her that Zhao Fubo is a knight with the spirit of chivalry.
Sophia did not believe in Arab warriors, but for herself, she followed her mother to believe in Catholicism. Although this was something that had to be kept secret in Spain, she had never had any good feelings for Arab warriors.
“Tu tu tu tu…”
The three loud knocks on the door made Sophia wipe away the tears from her face.
Some people are not used to it, and they are holding the hem of the Song-style palace skirt that Shu Yuer gave her. She has to get used to wearing men's clothing, but she is really not used to such a long skirt.
At first Shu Yuer invited her to Huangsha City and really equipped her with several new Song-style palace skirts. These silk-made clothes were much more luxurious than those worn by the British or French royal family at that time. Naturally, they attracted Sophia.
But she is used to wearing men's clothing, and in addition, she is very reluctant to wear these palace makeup that is extremely luxurious and almost at the level of art.
Or readers may think that why the daughter of a provincial governor was so poor, to be honest, Sophia's stepmother was quite good, and it was also a sign of kindness that she did not regard her as a maid like Cinderella.
When Sophia opened the door, Zhao Fubo, Shu Yuer and Juliana appeared in front of her together. When Shu Yuer and Juliana faced Sophia's tragic situation, they couldn't help but feel compassion. The two of them stepped forward and came to Sophia's side.
"Sofiya, don't worry, we will help you!"
Perhaps because of her orphan situation, Juliana first revealed the good news to Sophia.
"Really, Zhao, are you really willing to save my father?"
Sophia's eyes flashed with excitement. It can be said that for her, this is probably the best news she has heard recently.
"Yes, we decided to save your father, but... what I want to know is whether the Knight who sent you a letter explained to you and gave you enough time to prepare you for money, you know..."
Sophia seemed to think that Zhao Fubo would go to Egypt with an understanding, and she almost jumped like a little girl who got a teddy bear.
A blush surged on his pale cheeks, and his eyes, which were originally red, swollen and dull because of crying, became brighter again.
"Thank you, Zhao, thank you very much. I really don't know how to thank you for your kindness. If it weren't for you, I would have died. When will we set out, tomorrow?"
The series of chasing people simply did not have the chance to interrupt. After finally, Zhao Fubo had the opportunity to let her hear the problem clearly when her series of questions were completed.
"Miss Sophia, I want to know how long the Crusaders will give you money. You know that if the time is short, we will not have enough money, so..."
Just like most Song people, talking about money is not a gentleman's business in Zhao Fubo's impression. So when he said these words, his voice became smaller and even his face looked embarrassed.
Sophia just thought it was Zhao Fubo who was deliberately talking about the issue of remuneration. Perhaps it was not a problem if Sophia's father came back, but now she really has nothing.
But she suddenly showed some crazy actions, which also showed that as long as she could save her father, she could pay any price.
Sophia suddenly pushed her body, then suddenly stretched out her arms and tightly wrapped around his neck. She even kissed Zhao Fubo with her dry, somewhat crazy lips.
This not only out of Shu Yuer and Juliana's surprise, but even Zhao Fubo turned his head in fear, causing Sophia's lips to fall only on his face.
"I... can give me myself, I'm still ***. In addition, I promise, my father..."
When she only finished the first half of the sentence, Zhao Fubo had already broken away from her arms in a mess. Looking at her embarrassed and panicked look, it was like a lion I met on the grassland.
Not only did he avoid it from afar, he even stopped this "dangerous" conversation.
"Yu'er, Julie, you guys talk to her, I...I..."
"I" twice, and Zhao Fubo, who had nothing out of me, ran away directly. He looked at Sophia in surprise. Listening to what she had just revealed her "status", Shu Yuer and Juliana knew that she had twisted everything.
"Silly girl, he is asking about the fundraising period that the Crusaders gave you. We need time to equip the army together. You know, it takes time!"
Shu Yuer's explanation made Sophia confused. She didn't understand what she could use money to redeem, and what Zhao Fubo and the others should organize the army.
Juliana's reaction is another matter.
"Sophia, I told you that he is a chivalrous warrior and will never make any excessive demands to you at this time!"
Looking at Zhao Fubo who was fleeing, Sophia had to answer Shu Yuer's inquiry first.
"Yes, the Crusaders gave me time to raise funds, and if it's over six months they'll sell my father as a prisoner, you know..."
When it comes to selling his father to a place he will never find or see again, Sophia couldn't help but burst into tears in her eyes.
"I said Sophia, don't cry anymore. I'll rest assured that we will definitely go to rescue your father. I think six months are enough!"
Juliana's words finally calmed down Sophia. Perhaps until then, when the unresolved things in her heart came to an end, Sophia could no longer support her spirit.
"Thank you, Miss Yu'er, with your guarantee, I..."
Sophia, who was halfway through, suddenly became weak and she completely lost consciousness.
"Sophia...Sophia..."
Juliana instinctively patted her face, trying to wake her up again, but Shu Yuer stopped her.
"Oh, let her have a good sleep. I guess she hasn't had a good sleep or eaten anything since she learned the news. I'm worried that if she goes on, I'm afraid she'll be dead before we save her father!"
Shu Yuer and Juliana put Sophia on the bed and looked at Sophia who could finally sleep peacefully and even had a visible smile on her face. Shu Yuer suddenly said something, which made Juliana worry again.
"She...what did you hear clearly what she just said?"
Juliana looked at Shu Yuer strangely. At that time, she was still immersed in Sophia's almost crazy behavior and could not extricate herself. Now that Shu Yuer asked, Juliana suddenly remembered that Sophia seemed to have said something in Zhao Fubo's ear.
"Has she spoke? It seemed to have said, but I didn't hear it clearly..."
Shu Yuer glanced at Sophia, then quietly touched Juliana's ear and told her Sophia's words.
"She seemed to be saying just now, she still..."
The more Juliana listened, the bigger her blue eyes opened. Although she understood Sophia's mood, it seemed that this kind of thing happened in front of the two of them, which always made people feel a little uncomfortable.
"I really didn't expect that the squinting Erlang was still so narrow. You didn't see him, and your face turned pale just now!"
Shu Yuer seemed not to be in her heart about this matter, but instead used to joke with Zhao Fubo. However, Juliana said something, which made Shu Yuer worry too.
"What a pity, that squint Erlang will become less and less in such matters. What should I do then?"
