Perhaps because his body was too weak, Leo slept very deeply, and when he woke up, he had the illusion that he had just closed his eyes. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Then Leo saw Bela.

The girl lay on the side of his bed and fell asleep, her long eyelashes trembling slightly even in her sleep, and her fair and delicate cheeks were slightly tired.

She stayed by Leo's side all night.

Leo realized that their hands were still clasped together as tightly as they had before he fell asleep.

Leo's heart warmed, and he couldn't help but reach out and want to touch the cheek of the girl in front of him, but his body had just moved, and Bella woke up suddenly, looked at Leo and said, "You're awake." ”

Leo smiled slightly and said, "Let's go wash our faces, we'll go out after breakfast." ”

"Out of the house?" Bella was stunned for a moment, "Where are you going?" ”

Leo smiled, and suddenly reached out and pinched Bella's blown-up cheek: "Go get down to business, and see if you can have some fun by the way." ”

Moments later, the carriage carrying Leo and Bella drove out of the State Guesthouse and headed out of the palace, escorted by a group of elite papal seeers.

It wasn't until he got into the carriage that Leo had time to rummage through the information in his hand.

This information is about Roger, the family of the late Home Secretary Edgar.

Last night, Leo and Roger had agreed that this morning Roger would hold a family meeting, in which Leo would have Roger defeat all the competitors to become the head of the family, and Roger's reward would be that he would fully support the eldest princess at the election meeting.

The major families in the Spanne Empire have their own titles, and these titles are often named after animals, such as the "Golden Lion" of the Leannes, the "Ice Bear" of the Paul family, the "Blood Wolf" of the Habs, and the "Golden Feather Parrot" of the Roger family.

"Parrots?" Leo couldn't help but shake his head, compared to the previous lions, bears, and wolves, using parrots as a symbol of the family seemed to have a weak feeling.

Leo continued.

For the Spanne Empire, the Goldenfeather Parrot family was undoubtedly an outlier in imperial politics.

The reason why I say this is because the Spani Empire established the country by force, and almost more than 90% of the families relied on the titles and territories obtained by fighting for the country on the battlefield, but in the one hundred and twenty-nine years since the establishment of the Golden Feather Parrot family, there is not even a direct member of this family who has participated in the war.

But it is such a family, but it has risen all the way from the lowest baron, and it has only taken four generations to become a big family headed by a marquis.

If it weren't for the accident on the celebration day, once Edgar can successfully ascend to the position of prime minister, then according to the practice that the prime minister of the empire must be a duke, the Golden Feather Parrot family will officially enter the list of first-class families in the empire, and become a well-known existence even in the entire continent.

Of course, the Duke's dreams were completely shattered with Edgar's assassination in the King's Palace, but the position of a Marquis was still coveted by all.

Edgar was in the prime of life, and although he had begun to let Roger initially involve some family management before he died, Edgar's original intention was to let Roger slowly learn how to take over step by step, so the power in Roger's hands was not superior to several other uncles, so that he could not be recognized as the head of the family in the family elders.

Now there is some information about the elders, but since the Inquisition and the entire church are not strong enough in Ridmar City, Leo only has a few names and some brief background information, and no further details.

Leo closed the information and began to think about what to do next.

It wasn't until this time that Bella, who had been sitting quietly on the side, spoke: "What are you thinking?" ”

Leo smiled and took Bella's small, boneless hand, and for some reason, he found himself enjoying it more and more.

"I'm wondering how I'm going to fix this matter as soon as possible."

"What are you going to do? I'm going to have some kind of intrigue again. ”

"Intrigues?" Leo couldn't help but laugh again, and then shook his head slightly: "Against these little people, your man can't use any conspiracy. ”

While talking and laughing, the carriage had slowly stopped in a mansion.

"My lord, here we are."

As soon as he stepped out of the carriage, Leo saw a relieved Roger.

After last night's dinner, Roger returned to his mansion impatiently, and sent someone to inform the important people of the family to have a meeting this morning.

But even so, Roger's heart was still a little apprehensive, like two buckets going up and down. After all, his succession to the head of the family is dispensable for Leo, but for Roger, it is everything.

In Roger's opinion, the position of head of the family left by his father belongs to him as a matter of course, and Roger is willing to pay enough price in order to regain this position that belongs to him.

It wasn't until the moment he saw Leo get out of the carriage that Roger's mood calmed down a little and hurriedly greeted him: "What happened?" Leo-sama, you seem to be feeling unwell. ”

Leo got out of the carriage with some difficulty under the support of Morata and the third referee, although he was in good spirits, but at the moment Leo was very weak, and he was unable to walk on his own.

Until now, only a few people knew that Leo had been poisoned like the second prince Julian, and Roger certainly did not belong to one of those people.

"It's fine, it's just a little accident." Leo suddenly realized that he had been able to use that false smile so naturally: "Your Excellency Roger, are you all here?" ”

"It's all here." Since Leo didn't say much, Roger wouldn't be stupid enough to ask, but turned the topic to the most critical direction at the moment: "All the family elders and those who are qualified to inherit the position of head of the family are already in the family council room. ”

After a pause, Roger said with some unease: "Your Excellency Leo, maybe you don't know that behind my uncles there are many other big families in Ridmar City secretly supporting, and these families have also sent representatives today-"

"Wouldn't that be better?" Leo interrupted Roger, "That way, I have more reason to support you as an outsider, don't I?" Now, tell me all the information you have, we're pressed for time. ”

"Yes, Lord Leo."

The two of them talked as they walked, and unconsciously entered the door of the Golden Feather Parrot family's mansion, and after another moment, the large council hall appeared in front of the two.
