vs 49 Kings and queens
"Maybe..."
Pei Di smiled lightly and poured his wife a cup of fragrant tea, "While the elves gain immortality, they must also maintain their love for nature and maintain the ecological balance of the continent, in a sense, the elves pay more for immortality than the undead army." β
"As my husband, you should be on my side. Erin Phil was a little angry, and when she heard Pedy's words, she put down the teacup she had picked up.
"I'm just telling the truth. Peddy shrugged his shoulders and pointed to his head and said, "You should think carefully about the belief of the elves, and not with such obvious prejudices, the gods have put down so many intelligent beings in such a small space, and the value of our existence and their existence is not as simple as a life form. β
Erin Phier nodded and asked, "Do the intelligent beings you are talking about include the undead legions that appear now?"
"Maybe it's complete, life and death..."
"The undead are not dead, they are alive, an energy being. Erin Phier interrupted her husband.
"Although their existence is full of surprises, since they can appear, it proves that they should appear... Although this is my opinion, I will not waver in my determination to eliminate them. Pedi blew lightly on the hot tea, and as she spoke, she looked at the vibrant clusters of flowers in the garden.
"What have you been working on lately?" The cool breeze of the night blew through the hair of Erinfield's shawl, and she gently stroked the hair in front of her eyes, looking at the tea that was being blown back and forth by the breeze, and said, "I didn't deny the existence of elves, I just didn't like their savior appearance... Didn't you get the news? Evil energy is not inherently suppressed magical energy, but there is a problem with our basic circle formula, and our common basic circle formula is transmitted by the elves through Patved, don't you think there is a problem here?"
"There are countless inexplicable things in history, if there is really a problem with the elven kingdom..."Pei Di blew lightly, blowing away the hot air surrounding the teacup again, "I will pay attention to the elves' every move, you should believe that with the current strength of the kingdom, there is no need to fear any conspiracy of the elves at all." β
"You're always so confident and optimistic. Erin Phier sighed, "Don't you realize that the whole world has been different since the undead legion appeared? It was likeβ" She said these words in a hurry, anxious to prove something, but for a moment she didn't know how to express it.
"It's like something's been completed... Isn't it?" Pedi let the bitter taste of the tea cross his throat and hit his taste buds, and when the whole mouth was filled with a refreshing feeling, he raised his eyes and said at his wife: "Before the appearance of the undead legion, there were mages who mentioned that the magic net seemed to be missing a part, which caused the completed magic to always be unstable, but since the evil energy of the undead army filled the magic web, the magic energy not only did not collapse as the elf said at the beginning, but became more and more stable. β
"yes, that's it... So, don't you think it's suspicious?" Erin Phier couldn't stop nodding, "If we can rewrite a set of basic magic formulas to achieve the manifestation of spells, the spread of the undead legion's evil power will not be a problem at all. β
Pei Di poured himself tea again, looked at his wife and asked, "I heard that the Mage Tower has achieved remarkable results?" My Court Mage Advisory Group has also developed a new magic equipment in conjunction with the Chengnan Laboratory, and I think we can cooperate with the Mage Tower." β
"Are you assigning me a task?" said Eileenfield.
"There is no one in the entire kingdom better suited than you to lead the mages and communicate with the Eternal Wings. Seeing his wife put down the teacup, Pei Di immediately refilled the tea for her, and said with a flattering smile, "I'm sure your father must be very interested in the magic equipment we are studying, right?"
"It's true, my father has asked us several times to talk about jointly developing magic equipment, but he doesn't want to pay anything..."Erin Fei'er doesn't like to drink hot things, she leaned over and gently blew the tea, the breath that came out of her mouth was tinged with a faint chill, she said as she blew, "But are you sure you want to hand over the experimental data of the magic equipment? You must understand that with the current kingdom's research ability to research the magic circle, as long as time permits, it is fully capable of completing a unique set of basic magic construction formulas." β
"My dear, cooperation is a win-win situation, the Mage Tower has the most advanced magical knowledge, and our magic energy test data is still in its infancy. Pei Di frowned slightly as he looked at the clear tea that was blown cold by Erin Fei'er, and subconsciously picked up the teacup and took a sip, "I not only have to cooperate with the Mage Tower, but also cooperate with the Misha Kingdom to develop and improve more magic equipment. β
"Not bad, but will the Kingdom of Misha agree?" asked Erin Feier subconsciously.
Pedi smiled confidently, "They can't refuse me, just like they can't refuse the Elven Kingdom." β
Erin Phier looked at her husband's confident appearance and smiled as well, and she lifted the silver lid from the porcelain plate on the stone table and changed the subject, "Try this pastry, made with the flour of the Misha Kingdom and the melons of the Naryn Forest. β
"Really?" said Pedi in a joking tone, staring at the golden pastries on the fruit bowl, "It represents our friendship with the Kingdom of Misha and the Kingdom of the Elves. β
"Kingdom friendship is cheap. Erin Fil was joking, too.
"I don't think it's cheap. Pedi shook her head, picked up a piece of pastry, put it whole in her mouth and chewed it. This is not a taste that Pedi likes, because it is excessively sweet, but with the light bitterness of the tea, it can give people a very special aftertaste.
Irene Field, on the other hand, had a soft spot for the pastry, and after eating a piece at a rapid pace, she drank the cooled tea in one gulp, and picked up another piece of the pastry when her husband filled it for her again, but this time she only took a small bite and chewed it slowly.
The husband and wife did not talk about anything again, they quietly tasted tea, ate pastries, enjoyed the beautiful garden under the lights at night, and enjoyed the leisurely time after dinner.
After Paddy had finished his two pastries, he left the tea to his wife and walked out of the gazebo, and he went among the clusters of flowers to look around at the beautiful petals that bloomed in the garden, and watched them compete for beauty in the dark night, and forgot all the troubles of the day.
After a while, Erin Phier also walked over quietly, silently handed Pedi a cup of tea, and then followed Pedy's gaze to look at the garden with different colors under the lights.
The two of them stood quietly, enjoying the silence in the boundless night, smelling the fragrance of flowers in the garden so intoxicated that they seemed to lose track of time.
I don't know how long it took, but a breeze accompanied by the cold and cool of the night made the two reluctantly wake up from their intoxication, and looked at each other and showed a smile of enjoyment.
"Good times always go by quickly. Pedi let out a cloudy breath and gently stroked the white ice orchid in front of him, "It would be nice if there was a magic that could lock in time." β
Erin Feier immediately shook her head, "It is theoretically impossible to manipulate time artificially, and time rewind is not only about you and me, but also about the whole world, and even the entire universe... Unless a certain space is blocked, you can turn back time for a short time... Or lock up for a certain period of time, the Mage Tower once cast a similar spell to keep a certain director. β
Every time she mentioned anything about magic, Eileen Phier became as rigorous as an old scholar. Pei Di secretly smiled bitterly, but on the surface he had to cooperate: "Has the director been rescued?"
"It's a pity...", Erin Phier took her husband's arm and walked slowly towards the gazebo, saying as she walked, "In the space locked in time, no one can escape the fate of being locked down, so no one can save him. β
"Time has blocked the passage of that director's life, and it has blocked the people who rescued him?"
"Yes, no one can step outside the rules of time... Maybe the gods can, butβ" Erin Phier shook her head and didn't continue.
"In other words, even theoretically, changing time is impossible?"
"Yes, because time is not just about the caster himself, he is about the entire universe, unless the legendary creator may be able to do so. Erin Phiel said cautiously with each word, "The elves once came up with the concept of 'timeline', and they thought that they could use extraordinary power to open up a time channel, travel through the past or the future, and create an alternative story line from this space... But I personally don't think it's possible at all, because time can't be controlled at all. β
When Piedi explained to Erin Field, she instinctively looked at the night sky that seemed to be within reach, and the little stars and moonlight all revealed that this world was not just 'Ellen Continent'!
"Whew..."Pedi let out a long breath as she woke up from her endless thoughts, controlling her throbbing heart to slowly subside. Erin Feier looked at her husband's appearance and asked curiously, "What were you thinking just now, it can actually make you feel fear." β
"The starry sky of the universe deserves everyone's fear and fear. Pedi didn't hide it.
"Do you remember Archduke Patved's "Enemy from the Stars"?" the smile on Erinfield's lips became more and more obvious.
Pedi smiled lightly and didn't continue the conversation, he withdrew his gaze from afar to refocus on the tea set on the stone table. At this time, the maid of the castle stepped forward at the signal of the chief steward of the castle and refilled the kettle on the charcoal fire with spring water.
"What have you been talking about at your tea party lately?" said Pedi changed a teapot and carefully cleaned his favorite clay teacup while waiting for the boiling water.
"What would you like to hear?" Elein Fell motioned to the maid to put away the pastries and let them present them a plate of plump dried fruits, "If you want to ask the ladies what they are talking about the 'Syke-Marat Fall', you may be disappointed, because since the story of Seke-Marat spread throughout the kingdom, they have not discussed Seke-Marat and his government reform. β
"There's a problem!" Peddy looked up at his wife, then lowered his head to wipe the teaglass, "It's not like they're so quiet. β
"You have ordered that no one is allowed to discuss it, who dares to discuss it in public at my tea party, isn't this asking for your own death?" Erin Fell looked at her husband with some amusement, and put down the cleaned teacup in her hand, "Although they can't continue to talk about Saike-Marat, another person came into their sight... Baron Aemond, who is returning to Crewe City to report on his duties, are you planning to have Baron Aemond take over the position of Harrens Supreme Chief?"
"What's the problem?" Pedi put down his teacup and looked at the steaming kettle, "What, do they still want to meddle in the appointment of the governor of the local affairs?
"Not to interfere with your appointments, but... Do you really plan to let Baron Aemond continue with the government reform of Seke-Marat?" Erin Phier's body instinctively leaned forward, "Who does Baron Aemond represent, do you know?"
"According to the information of the police department, Baron Aemond has correspondence with almost every nobleman in the kingdom, and every time he returns to Crewe, he will always visit my mother as soon as possible. Pei Di grabbed a handful of tea leaves and put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it, saying this sentence with a very relaxed face.
Erin Phil bit her lip lightly and whispered, "They said... Baron Aemond is the spokesperson of the Twak Barrett family in the kingdom. β
"Actually, what they want to say is that my mother is secretly connecting with the nobles of the Twak Clan, right?" Peidi said softly with each word, his expression as if he was talking about a trivial matter, "Do you think so too?"
"It doesn't matter what I think, what matters is what the nobles of the kingdom think about it. Eileen Field's face was serious, "If the ministers and nobles of the kingdom think that Baron Aemond is the representative of the Barrett family, even if he is not, he will become yes! And you have handed over to him the government restructuring of the entire Harrens Province, what will the nobles of the Harrens Province think? What will the other ministers of the kingdom think?"
Pedi stretched out his hand to uncover the teapot, but after hearing Erin Phier's words, he retracted and asked in a low voice after a few seconds of silence, "Do you have any better solution?"
"Didn't the 'Military Expenditure Corruption Case' not yet be finalized a few years ago? I think Baron Aemond is the best person to investigate this case. Irene took the tea leaves from her husband's hand into her own hands, and took the place of her husband's tea-making work, and when she opened the teapot, she whispered, "As long as Baron Aemond investigates this case, I am sure that the nobles and ministers of the kingdom will not mind what he has done before." β
