Speaking of a seemingly simple return task, why did Elsa feel extremely hesitant and difficult to accept?

Just send the more than 10,000 "beauties" back to their respective hometowns according to the address, why is it difficult?

But in the actual operation process, this task is not as simple as people think.

It can even be said that it is extremely difficult.

Because of the more than 10,000 "beauties", a considerable number of them don't want to go home at all, and they still have a glimmer of hope in their hearts.

What hope?

I hope to be favored by His Majesty the Emperor, and from then on I can enjoy endless glory and wealth, change my personal destiny, and go to the peak of my life.

And this may be a one-time chance, and none of them want to give it up!

After Elsa took over this work, except for those who actively cooperated, for the part of the "beauties" who did not want to go home at all, she could only patiently do their ideological work, promise some benefits, persuade them to give up their persistence, return to their respective homes, and live their peaceful and down-to-earth life, perhaps that is the most correct and happiest life.

"If you don't go back, you won't go home! I think that as long as Your Majesty sees my face, he will definitely fall in love with me at first sight!"

"Yes, I have never even seen His Majesty's face, and His Majesty has never seen me, but I am extremely convinced that the missing lover by Your Majesty's side is me!"

"That morning, at first sight, I fell in love with His Majesty sitting on it, but he didn't even look at me directly, I was not reconciled! I want to see Your Majesty alone, I want him to see my beauty clearly!"

"I won't give up unless I hear His Majesty say he doesn't like me!"

There are dozens of scheming Bichi, relying on their relatively high appearance, but they don't listen to Elsa's persuasion, and they don't tell their hometown addresses.

In the face of these blue pools, what should Elsa do?

She can only take a more clumsy way, through the names of these Bichi, find the giver on the corresponding gift list, and then send someone to visit the door or visit those ministers and nobles in person, and investigate and ask them: Where do the beauties they collected come from?

It's just that the Lucis family has offended too many ministers and nobles, and most of Elsa's investigation does not cooperate and does not tell her where those "beauties" come from.

In the end, it was Zhou Ming who spoke: "The last 10 officials or families who do not cooperate with Elsa's investigation will all be demoted to the first level of official (knight) and fined 100,000 gold taps!"

Due to the fear of degrading officials and fines, the ministers and nobles vied with each other to cooperate, and honestly explained the detailed origins of those beauties.

Even so, in the final stage of return, there were still a few scheming Bichi, crying and making trouble, splashing and rolling, no matter how they cooperated, and some picked up scissors and daggers and put them on their necks, indicating that they would commit suicide if they couldn't see the emperor.

In short, the reaction was very intense!

But Elsa still used various means to fight wits and courage with them, and stuffed all these scheming pools into the float boat and sent them back to their respective hometowns.

When this return task is completed, more than 10,000 "beauties" will be processed.

It took Elsa more than two months, and she lost ten pounds and felt physically and mentally exhausted, as if she had fought a difficult war.

And when Zhou Ming learned that Elsa had successfully completed the return task, made no mistakes, and was safe and secure, he was also very happy, and immediately ordered a reward of 100,000 gold, and the official rank was upgraded by one level, and in the palace, he could stand in the first three rows.

The speed of this promotion can be said to be very impressive.

However, on the day of September 2nd.

On this day's morning morning.

After taking three days off to rest, Elsa finally came to the court today, and Zhou Ming was taken aback when she saw her image.

He asked, "Lord Elsa, I haven't seen you for a while, why have you lost so much weight, and what's the matter with the gauze on your face?"

Hear this inquiry.

Elsa's eyes suddenly turned red, and she felt aggrieved and wanted to cry.

But she still bowed slightly, and said lightly: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister has lost his appetite these days, he has not slept well, he has lost some weight, and as for the injury on his face, he accidentally fell on the ground." ”

"Fell?" Zhou Ming looked suspicious.

"Puff~"

However, there were some officials in the hall who tried their best to hold back their laughter and behaved very strangely.

Zhou Ming pointed to one of the officials and asked, "Ackerman, can you explain how the injury on Princess Elsa's face came about?"

The official hurriedly stepped out of the queue and said, "Back to Your Majesty, the wound on the face of King Elsa...... Puff... Be... Be...... Puff puff...... It was caught by the other party in the process of returning a beauty home...... Hahahaha!"

Speaking of the back, Ackerman couldn't hold back at all and laughed directly.

"Hahaha!"

The other ministers and nobles couldn't bear it anymore and burst into laughter.

Only Elsa blushed, her head bowed, and her body shook violently.

Zhou Ming was also taken aback, Elsa's face was actually caught like that, isn't it about to be broken?

He immediately said: "Imperial Doctor, immediately ask the best imperial doctor to take King Elsa down for treatment, if there is a scar, I will definitely punish him heavily!"

Several of the royal doctors were called over and took Elsa down.

As for the ministers and nobles who were laughing and laughing in the palace, Zhou Ming also criticized them fiercely, and a few of them were demoted and fined by him, requiring them to apologize to King Elsa, otherwise the punishment would be even more severe!

In this way, the ministers and nobles in the palace kept silent and held back all the schadenfreude on their faces.

In the next few days, Zhou Ming had to go to the palace almost every day to discuss with the imperial doctors the treatment plan for the scar on Elsa's face, and even personally processed the medicinal herbs, made a plaster with good results, and personally applied it to her.

And also used some magic power, which was injected into her body to stimulate the growth of cells and speed up the healing of wounds.

A week later.

Fortunately, the scar on Elsa's face has basically healed, leaving only a light-colored trace, which does not have much impact on the overall appearance.

As long as you take care of it for a while, the light-colored scar should gradually disappear.

In the past few days, Elsa has also experienced the feeling of being cared for, her heart is surrounded by a ball of warmth, and sometimes she will have some longing and fantasies, but reason immediately reminds herself: that is impossible, don't continue to fantasize!

And the reason why Zhou Ming cares so much about Elsa these days, even to the extent that the imperial capital speculates, is also because of his selfishness and purpose.

What purpose?

The more than 3,000 maids who were stuffed into the palace by various ministers and nobles have reached the point where they must be dealt with!

Otherwise, the more than 3,000 women, the movements they make every day, the tricks they invent every day, and the tearing activities within them every day, have already made the entire palace a miasma and a mess!

It even seriously affected his daily routine and normal work.

Sometimes, he even had the idea of moving out of the palace and changing the working environment!

But those ministers and nobles will definitely not let his idea succeed, and they will jointly oppose it with all their might, and they will launch an overwhelming bombardment!

It's almost impossible to get away with harassment.

What to do?

You can only make good use of Elsa's killer feature.

In addition, after completing the task of returning tens of thousands of beauties home, Elsa, who has rich experience, must be familiar with such a task without any problems.

And Zhou Ming's goal is to compress the number of more than 3,000 "maids" in the palace to about 300, and the proportion of refunds will reach more than 90%.

Like this kind of cruel "elimination" task, Zhou Ming can only be handed over to experienced people to do.

So after hearing Zhou Ming's request, Elsa, who had just the scar on her face, was stunned for a moment.

Then he shook his head desperately and said: "Your Majesty, I can't do this, you find someone else to do it, I really can't do it!"

Zhou Ming said in a harmonious voice: "Elsa, no one can do this job except you." ”

"But this will offend countless ministers and nobles, and they will hate me to the core, and they will hate the Lucis family to the core!" Elsa shook her head desperately.

Zhou Ming comforted her and said: "No, even so, they don't dare to do anything to you, I will definitely stand firmly on your side, if anyone targets you, it is against me, I will let them know the consequences!" Zhou Ming's eyes flashed a trace of domineering.

"This ......"

Elsa is still extremely hesitant, because it is foreseeable that if she accepts this task, she will not only have to tear up with nearly 3,000 Bichi from high-ranking families, but also with countless families, and the forces that have offended can be said to be countless!

The danger factor of this task can be said to be exaggerated and terrifyingly high!

But in order to dispel her concerns, Zhou Ming made all kinds of promises and made all kinds of promises, saying that as long as Elsa helped complete this task, she would increase the official money in the future, increase the cooperation with the Lucis family in the future, and owe her a favor, she could make a request in the future, as long as he could do it, he would definitely agree and so on!

In short, in order to make Elsa nod and agree, Zhou Ming took out all the conditions that could be taken out.

"This ......"

Elsa thought about it for a while, muttered for a while, and then gritted her teeth and said fiercely: "Okay, I did it!"
