‘…’
In the market in the Sifeng Valley, early in the morning, the hardworking panda farmer Lao Yu stood beside his farmland carrying his hoe. Then the hair on his face, which was facing a pair of black eyes, stood up, and he couldn't say a word for a long time, and he didn't know what to say.
Anyway,
Looking at the yellow, little girl's flying mount "Big Huang" not far away, the big guy named the dragon roared angrily, blasting fire in the wastelands of his body, and began to rake the ground with four claws, plowing deep into the soil. The next second, both the hard stones and the hard earth were instantly turned out, and the big guys who jumped out of the red-eyed rabbit demons were chaotic. After being shocked, the farmer Lao Yu could only nodded barely to express his very, very satisfied!
To be honest, after observing this, Lao Yu had to admit that he could not find any better, more efficient and hardworking animals to plow the fields... Whether it is the alpine yaks, the plateau Mushan beasts, even the strong horned sheep, the huge sea turtle, the dragon turtle, etc., he is probably not as powerful as the other party's work.
'ah……'
‘Really, it’s amazing…’
At the beginning, Lao Yu was not very relieved of the little girl who received the punishment, so he planned to come early in the morning to see if he could help and supervise the work. But how could he think that the little girl's rhubarb now seems to be able to solve all the work with a dragon, and there is no need for anyone to get in the way?
So, Lao Yu decided:
When the big guy, after the heavy work of the rhubarb, he took the old leaves of vegetables, radishes that were about to rot, cabbage, etc. from bamboo baskets to entertain the hard-working big guy! After all, a yellow 'cow' like that must have a lot of appetite, so he must prepare more.
“!!”
"Little girl, your hard work in your house is so hard, haven't you ever thought about helping?"
After nodding with satisfaction at the hard-working Dahuang, I was about to go back to his home to have a few drinks. However, before leaving, he subconsciously asked a little girl who was supervising the worker with a blame.
Because he felt that this little girl was too cunning, and that children could not develop the habit of being lazy from an early age. Since he had the chance, he would definitely have to supervise it. After all, yesterday, he thought that this little girl would do it himself, and then he would take the opportunity to educate her?
“!!”
!?(??''????)??
"I'm still a child with my little arms and legs. How can you, a bad-faced man, let me do that heavy work of farming?!"
s (??╭╮??)ゞ
The poor and helpless Queen Anne said that she, a little girl who is powerless, will definitely not be able to climb the ground and plant the fields, so, let’s leave the heavy, tiring and dirty work to the 'hard and hard' rhubarb in her family.
And...
??华??华????
She wouldn't tell a panda old man that the yellow yellow was unwilling to work, but after she beat him up... she quickly became much more honest and ran to work early in the morning. She was preparing to finish the days of life in one morning, and she couldn't stop anyone, and would be anxious for anyone who wanted to help?
"oh?"
"Little girl, you are very dishonest... I can see that you are as cunning as those hateful little boys in our panda people... But I won't care about you as much. Since your rhubarb will be able to complete that job soon, let's just forget about the things yesterday."
"But in the future, you must remember that you, a little foreign guy, must not cause trouble for everyone in the Sifeng Valley and Banshan Market. We do not welcome those kind of clever little guys!"
The farmer Lao Yu, who was planning to go back for a few drinks, did not want to waste his time on a little girl he had just met for a day. So, after pretending to say a few words in the end, he patted his big belly and patted his butt, carrying the handle that was still very clean, and he had no chance to go to the dirt-stained hoe and trotted to his home.
A few days ago, he had just brewed a pot of good wine, so he didn't have to go to work when he had time today, so he had to drink a small cup... Of course, it might be several large cups?
"Honey~!"
(??????????-)??
"You foolish man is not honest!"
e=(??vev????)))Ph!
After making a big grimace at the other party's round body and back and spitting, Annie took a last look at a certain "big yellow" and felt that the other party would not be sensible. Then she nodded with satisfaction and turned around and walked towards the west away from the Mid-mountain market.
“Hmph…”
????(????'??)?????????
Queen Anne wanted to eat Yanling salmon at noon this day, so just now, she had already gone to agree to the master chef Yan Tiezhang.
Although the other party agreed to her request and symbolically collected one of her gold coins as food cost, the hateful panda uncle also said: She, a child, cannot be lazy and lazy, and cannot be allowed to spend "others" too easily. Therefore, the emperor salmon and the best onions for cooking the "flame spirit salmon" must be obtained by herself before he can help cook it?
However, little Annie thinks that if the cunning panda man didn't deliberately make things difficult for her, he would definitely want to use her!
Because, after seeing the big and flying rhubarb in her house, she would deliberately say that, and at the same time, she would ask her to help him bring back several sacks of vegetables and other crops that he had already ordered before noon?
Due to the other party's identity as a chef and his future food considerations, Little Annie had to respond reluctantly...
Actually,
After getting up early in the morning to eat "Misty Boil", she had already been to Lao Nong Mountain Palm, but the other party's crops were still in the field and had not been packed, so she had to fly back and rake a bronze dragon who wanted to cheat and rake...
Now, she is going to go to the west near the old nest mountain palm field. Of course, she is definitely not going to do farm work for the other party, but to help the annoying old panda catch the chicken!
That's right, it's just catching chickens!
Because the old guy said that he was in trouble. His award-winning hen didn't run out of the cage yesterday and refused to come back. Now he must have run into the flock of native chickens he raised free of charge, and mixed with other hens, pheasants, wild birds, and... some unhappy roosters?
So, before the other party prepares the crops at noon, Anne needs to go to the west of the other party's farm and the south of the Ferris ridge to find and catch the award-winning hen, and then the other party will give her some abominable chef's goods and some good fresh green onions to make Flame Salmon?
But...
(????w?????)
Little Annie is now wondering whether the award-winning hen tastes different from ordinary hens? Therefore, she is now very confused. She is not sure whether she will go to eat homemade "peanut grilled chicken skewers" at noon, or continue to eat the "Yanling Salmon" that she hasn't been able to eat again for a long time?
|????w??`)
In short, that was a major issue worth her thinking about slowly. Maybe when she reached the field of the old farmer's mountain palm, would she be able to make a decision almost as well?
Although, she had already got a king salmon...
But she wouldn't tell others that the fish was actually after she kept harassing a panda fisherman fishing by the river, throwing stones hard near the other party's bait, and even threatening to use magic to fry the fish before she succeeded.
??华??华????
but……
She is still struggling whether she wants to eat chicken or fish at noon? Or is there any way to eat chicken and the "Yanling Salmon"?!
(????????﹃??`??)
Fortunately, it is morning and there is still a lot of time, so early in the morning, the birds are chirping and the sun is shining high, and she still has time to slowly figure out how to do it.
(*^▽^*)??
suddenly!
There was a rustling sound in the grass on the side of the road, and then a monster that was almost half the height of Little Anne jumped towards her.
“…”
∑(??△)?!
"Go away! I don't want to eat you yet!"
ヽ(ヽ`д′)┌┛★)???????????) Ah!
After kicking someone out of the cave on the side of the road with one foot, the red-eyed rabbit demon who suddenly jumped out of the cave on the side of the road, the red-eyed rabbit demon who wanted to attack him was kicked away, Xiao Annie spitted for a while before jumping forward with her little bear.
"Lalala..."
"I am a happy little boss..."
????(????'??)?????;◇;??
Now she needs to take advantage of the time she is rushing to continue thinking about the important issue she was thinking about just now that made her very confused, but at the same time it also made her drool.
As for what to eat for dinner after thinking about the lunch problem...
“…”
??～(??eｍ)
Well, it’s better to think about that important and complex issue after she has lunch and has the strength, because she thinks it’s better to continue to worry about whether to eat chicken or whether to eat fish or chicken?
(…)
e=(?????'●))) Alas

...
While some bad little girl was stranding in the Four Wind Valley of Pandaria for some reason and preparing to chase chickens, Lordaeron, who was completely forgotten by her, was still confronting the evil undead natural disasters.
but,
It was strange that due to the inequality in intelligence, the two sides were just half a day away, about ten miles away, and they were silently confronting each other between Lord Lordean and Brill. It seemed that neither side intended to engage in a large-scale battle, and they were just weirdly maintaining a basic "peace" state?
So, the battle of Lordaeron, which originally thought that it would be in full swing, might even be a fierce battle ending with the fall and defeat of Lordaeron's royal city, but it stopped without warning and entered a temporary confrontation stage, which finally gave those Lordaeron people who were uneasy in their hearts to get extremely precious breathing time.
after all,
If we continue to stalemate for the time being, it is obviously extremely beneficial to Lordaeron and even the entire alliance! Because this means that they can calmly dispatch and arrange more and more advantageous troops, and gather the forces of many countries in the entire Lordaeron alliance to fight against the undead, rather than just using Lordaeron's remaining military power and part of the power of Dalaran and the dwarves of Eagle Nest Mountain to deal with it in a hurry!
If the undead can give Lordaeron a month or even longer arrangements and arrangements calmly, maybe Lordaeron can even go from a passive defense to an active attack?
Of course, the people in Lordaeron must not dare to think about that kind of thing now. Without sufficient intelligence support, they are still suspicious and random guessing about why the undead have not attacked, and are still worried about the evil terrifying existences that they do not know about.
...
At this time, far south of the mainland, in Stormwind City in the northwest corner of the peaceful and peaceful Elvin Forest, in a beautiful newly built stone mansion, a young and beautiful Countess with sexy figure and noble temperament, with straight shoulders, black hair and beautiful black eyes, Katrana Presto of Stormwind was comfortably lying on the chaise longue in the study of her own mansion, while savoring the special aged wine from the East Valley with a goblet, while teasing the beard beside her, who was not very big.
“…”
However, her beautiful eyes were not on the wine glass, nor on the body of the bell dog that was very comfortable to touch by her. Instead, she was slightly squinted, without any focal length at all, and she didn't know what she was thinking about to make her so focused.
finally,
I don't know how long it took to make it clear that she seemed to have figured out something. After raising her head and drinking the bright red liquid in the cup in one sip, she turned to look at the puppy that was being scratched by her chin and humming in her throat with her delicate face.
"Crishto..."
"You said, what would you think if I gave you to Anduin as a playmate?"
Although it was in an inquiring tone, Countess Katrana Preisto herself knew that once she said something, it meant that she had made a decision, and that the opinions of others or other dogs were obviously irrelevant.
‘Woo~Wool!!’
u ????` u
The short beetle wagged its tail and barked in a low voice, conveying its meaning to its owner.
"Um?"
"Why, you don't seem to be happy?"
The movements on her hands paused, and a certain countess seemed to be a little unsatisfied with the reaction of her dog. So, she turned her head slowly, stared at the "Crishto" who kept waving her tail, and kept rubbing her thigh with the dog's face.
‘Wow ~!’
▼-`????-▼
The short bell dog wagged his tail and conveyed his opinion accurately to his mistress in the house.
“…”
"But, do you know that Anduin is the prince of the Storm Kingdom. He will definitely be the king in the future. As long as you follow him, you can eat delicious food and drink spicy food from now on. You don't have to follow me every day."
"Also, if you don't care about you in the future, you can wander around Stormwind City... I have seen it. There seem to be many beautiful bitches in the city, and they..."
However, before the Count Katrana could finish her words, the dog that was being scratched by her casually scratching her chin suddenly shook, and then ran directly to her front, and swayed her tail hard, drooling her tongue and nodding constantly?
‘Wow!!’
▼⊙`????⊙▼
Its meaning is obviously very clear and direct, because it was convinced by its mistress, and some conditions issued by the other party made it completely unable or reason to refuse.
"All right……"
"I'll find an opportunity to send you out in a few days!"
"But you have to remember to 'protect' him well for me. Also, I don't want his personality to be too strong. I hate that Varian, so I don't want his son to be like him. Do you understand what you need to guide him properly?"
The countess, who was quite satisfied with the other party's awareness, stared at the eyes of the stupid dog in front of her for a while, then warned with a slightly threatening and a terrifying look.
Without saying that she sent out the dog named ‘Crishto’ in front of her, which was definitely not without any reason! In fact, everything Katrana Presto did was efficient and reasonable, otherwise her plan would not have gone so smoothly now.
‘!!’
‘Woo~Wooh!Wooh!Wooh!’
▼⊙`????⊙▼
No matter what, no matter whether you can complete it or not, Crishto, who only knows to agree first and then rub the benefits, shook his tail hard, and then kept rubbing the hostess' calf, indicating that it has no problems at all and is guaranteed to complete all the tasks assigned by the other party.
"snort!"
"Since that's the case, then don't let me down, otherwise, I think you know the consequences yourself..."
After glanced at the other party, Earl Katrana said nothing more, and did not care about the other party shaking his head and tail and showing his attention. He just casually drank the wine from the East Valley at home, hooked his fingers, and with the help of a simple mage, the bottle of wine placed on the table flew over and poured it into his cup.
“…”
Now, Crishto's matter has been decided, so it's time for her to think about other things, such as... the matter of the western wilderness and the Black Rock Mountain. A hateful guy in her family has caused her trouble in the Red Ridge Mountain and the Burning Plain, especially in Lakeside Town.
Although she had already suppressed the matter, she also knew that it would definitely not work if she kept suppressing things. She had to think of a way, either to solve the troubled guy or to kill the person who found the trouble. Sooner or later, she would always choose one between the two.
Just as the Countess Katrana was still drinking the wine from the East Valley at home leisure, teasing her stupid dog and making up her mind to think of a better way to solve the problem of Lakeside Town as soon as possible, suddenly, a spark of Mars emerged from the candlestick on her table, and then a small dragon-shaped ball of fire suddenly exploded in front of Countess Katrana, and flew around her in the air, scaring her and the dog in front of her!
“…”
He was stunned for a moment, and then quickly remembered what that thing was. After hesitating for a while, Katrana gently kicked a stupid dog who was still planning to rub against her calf and gave her diligent orders:
"Silly dog! Go out and go for yourself!"
With a look in her eyes, a stupid dog named Crishto understood and turned around and ran out happily, and soon disappeared, and I don't know where he ran to.
“…”
Subconsciously, he turned his head and squinted his eyes and looked around the left and right. Katrana, who found that there was no abnormality around the room and house, frowned, stretched out her slender hand and gently tapped the small candlelight in the dragon-shaped shape that was still wandering around her.
puff!!
The moment Katrana pointed at it, it exploded in vain. Then, a piece of parchment that burned the corners of the black fire fell out of the explosion of the small dragon-shaped fire ball, and above it was written in some ancient words:
‘One…’
‘The plan changes, and immediately help the Storm Kingdom calm the unrest and urge the Storm Kingdom to send troops north to support Lordaeron as soon as possible…’
The parchment with black fire burning at the corners was swept twice, and after confirming that after reading the content, it exploded again, burning directly in the countess' white and tender hand, and soon there was only a ball of burnt ashes left.
“…”
Katrana didn't mind the black fire burning in her palm. She clenched her fists and easily grabbed it and the ashes into a ball.
“!!”
"snort!"
Katerana was dissatisfied with ten thousand dissatisfied with an old guy who had not made any noise for a long time, but now he suddenly sent such an inexplicable new message and instructions!
"Damn it! What does that old man mean?!"
Katrana had no idea what was going on, and just gritted her teeth and cursed her inwardly.
You know, she finally forced Van Cliff and the stonemason union to rebel, and was about to put Storm Kingdom in severe internal friction. Her plan had been arranged well, and even made some preventive arrangements for the future. But now, the old guy suddenly appeared again and said that she would fully support Storm Kingdom, stabilize Storm City as soon as possible, and then send troops north?
What did that guy treat her as suddenly appear and completely deny the results she took risks and worked hard for many years. Why is he?!
but……
After being startled, astonished, and upset, Katerana soon calmed down and began to rack her brains to think about what she should do next.
"Damn..."
However, she soon discovered that there seemed to be no better way for her to do other than comply?
After all, she dared not ignore the old guy's orders, so she could only compromise and start to think about what to do to clean up the messes that she had made in Stormwind City as soon as possible, and then complete the task in the letter that some old guy had just written?
“…”
snort!
It is actually not difficult to solve the problem of Van Cliff and the stonemason union. She Katrana thought of two good solutions in the blink of an eye:
The first, the most straightforward thing is to kill that guy Van Cliff, and then ask the king and the nobles to send troops to suppress the stonemason union, but this may be time-consuming and labor-intensive. It may not be calmed down in less than a year or two, and the stubborn King Varian may not be happy to do that.
After all, it was really bad and inhumane to owe the stonemason union to suppress and destroy it. Otherwise, the other party would have just expelled the stonemason union from Stormwind City.
Then, I'm afraid there is only one other way to choose...
After thinking about it, Katrana started rummaging in her drawer. After a long time, she picked out a few letters from it and smiled proudly, because a relatively perfect plan was gradually brewing and gradually improving in her heart.
"It seems..."
"We need to go to Storm Fortress..."
Although it is very late now, Count Katrana Presto, who thinks the matter is 'significant', thinks that in the case of an emergency, it seems that it is appropriate for her to go there overnight now?
...
Stormwind Fortress, this huge fortress sits on the top of the cliffs in the north of the city, not only guards Stormwind, but also provides residence for King Varian Wrien and other parts of the city’s nobles.
And at this time,
King Varian Wrien was dealing with the messy military and political affairs in his study alone, and had no idea what to do.
Now, although he received an alarm and a request for help from Lordaeron, Varian said that as the king, he had no choice but to do anything...
Because Lordaeron is still too far from Stormwind City after all, and now things in Stormwind City and Storm King are still in a mess. He is too busy to take care of himself, and even himself is in turmoil. In addition, Stormwind City has just been rebuilt, and his national strength is extremely weak. With only defense, how could he send troops to help Lordaeron so quickly to deal with the undead plague that is said to be very powerful?
If the Storm Kingdom was peaceful, no matter how difficult it was, Varian would immediately lead the maximum army to board the ship and carry it on his back to help Lordaeron. He would never hesitate to do that! However, he could not do that now, because if he dared to mobilize the elite guarding the Storm City and the Darwin Forest, perhaps, if they did not wait for them to arrive at Lordaeron, he might be captured again.
And now, the most worrying and faceless thing in the Storm Kingdom is the tragic thing Edwin Van Cliff and the other party’s stonemason union!!
"well……"
Varian, who sighed, could only rub his forehead and weakly pushed the message of help from Lordaeron's messengers to the side.
Lordaeron must have sent troops to support him, but it may not work in a short period of time. He just hopes that the other party can hold on for more than a year and a half so that they can straighten out the domestic affairs in the Storm Kingdom first, and then talk about it when there are no worries?
And now, the thing that troubles him the most is not too complicated. It is all caused by something, that is - money!
Yes, it is because of the Storm Kingdom, or it can be said that it is because of the Storm Kingdom king Varian Wrien, the king of the Storm Kingdom, has no money! Now, the military and political expenditures of their Storm Kingdom have long been deficit! And the Storm City and Storm Fortress they have rebuilt now are even on credit!
As for the person on credit, he no longer wants to think about it... because, once he thinks about it, things will return to something damn, and that's still money!
original,
What Varian had agreed with the nobles might have promised various conditions and interests, but he didn't know what was going on, nor did he know what was wrong. At the critical moment, the acceptance was completed in Stormwind City. When he felt very satisfied and could not find any problems and was ready to pay the wages... the greedy nobles suddenly repent and refused to pay all the wages of the stonemason union in one lump sum, but chose to withhold and indefinitely defer payments?!
To be honest, if it were Varian Wrien himself, he would definitely not be able to accept that kind of thing. Therefore, he would have adopted the maximum tolerance for the rioters, the thugs who killed his queen, and the stonemason unions that plagued the western wilderness.
So, when Varian, the miserable king, was really poor, and the rich nobles did not know what medicine they had taken, and deliberately made things difficult for them and were unwilling to pay the money. When the stonemason union could not receive the large salary to support the family, the conflict between the two sides broke out, and the king, who was still confused about the development of the matter, became the center of the vortex...
Then,
Before Varian could react, the queen he cherished died unexpectedly in a riot. Then, in anger, he naturally expelled the stonemason union, and directly expelled the violently resisted thugs from Stormwind City, and the magnificent city they built by themselves.
Then, there is no need to say more about what will happen next.
Now, the union members who were driven out of Storm City went to the western wilderness together, and they did not take much time to turn the large western granary of the Storm Kingdom into a chaotic place. The other party also struggled with a large number of thugs who opposed Storm City. From time to time, they also came to the Elvin Forest or Storm City to attack and cause trouble, and gradually developed into a state that was too big to lose.
In addition to Lakeside Town and Karazan and the Curse Land that need to be monitored at all times, there are so many external things surrounding the Storm Kingdom. In addition, under the severe civil strife, what can he do even if he knows what happened to Lordaeron?
Now, his original choice has firmly bound him to the Storm Kingdom...
but,
As a staunch supporter of the Lordaeron League, Varian, who was taken care of by many Lordaeron, did not completely say that he would not plan to support him. Therefore, he would not sleep all night and be anxious to think about various possibilities, wanting to solve those problems as soon as possible and find a way to send troops.
"cough……"
Varian sighed again...
“Hmm?”
"Earl Presto, what are you?"
Suddenly, Wrien heard the sound of opening the door, and when he looked up tiredly in frustration, he saw that the young, beautiful and capable Count Katrana Presto was the young, beautiful and capable Countess Catrana Presto, he couldn't help but ask curiously.
He knew that with the other party's identity, he needed to meet him, so the guards outside would definitely not make things too difficult.
“Hi~!”
"His Majesty the King, I have a way to quickly stabilize the affairs of the kingdom. I wonder if you would like to listen?"
Seeing the King Varian sitting behind the table and in a bad state of mind, Katrana suddenly smiled charmingly, stepped forward and picked up the kettle, poured the other party a cup of refreshing hot drink, then asked softly with a smile on her face.
"ah?"
"What did you say?!"
