Chapter 455: Stinky Rascal
The Ice Bear family is worthy of being one of the top families in the Empire, this mansion is built with incomparable luxury and atmosphere, and even the gravel paths on both sides of this straight road are planted with many rare flowers that are rarely seen by ordinary people, and the fragrance of flowers wafts in the air, making Leo and Bela feel relaxed and happy when they walk hand in hand. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"These flowers are beautiful." Bella couldn't help but sigh, as a little girl, she didn't have any immunity to such beautiful things as flowers.
Leo gently pinched her cheeks and said with a smile: "If you like, in the future, I will build a big garden in our mansion and plant the famous flowers of the whole world in it, and you can see it whenever you like." β
"What our mansion, who said I was going to marry you!" Bella glanced at Leo coquettishly, but the tone of her mouth was sweet, obviously quite happy with Leo's words.
After hesitating for a moment, Bella felt the need to warn Leo, so she said, "Leo, I don't like that Roger. β
Leo shrugged his shoulders and said, "Actually, I don't like him either." β
Bella was stunned when she heard this: "Then why are you cooperating with him?" β
Leo smiled: "It's not a relationship, why should you like someone to work with him?" β
After thinking about it for a moment, Leo decided to go more closely.
"Let's put it this way, although Roger is very annoying, but in the current situation, this Roger is definitely a good help for us."
"Really?" Bela's long eyelashes kept fluttering, and she looked at Leo with some puzzlement: "Why?" β
"First of all, there is no conflict between his interests and ours. What he hopes most is to get the position of the head of the family, and what we want most is the voting rights of those senior members of his family, and we can take what we need with him, everyone eats meat together, no one has to eat the bones and dregs left over by others, and there will be no uneven distribution of spoils. β
The words "uneven spoils" made Bela can't help but roll her eyes as Leo learns.
"Secondly, Roger's own strength is not strong enough, otherwise he would not be able to inherit the position of head of the family to this day. If he relies on our strength to inherit the position of the head of the family, then whether he wants to or not, he must stand in the same boat with us, otherwise as long as we stop cooperating with him, he will be regarded as the head of the family, and such a head of the family without sufficient strength is still precarious and may be overthrown at any time. β
"So at least until the end of the Electoral, there is absolutely no possibility that this Roger will betray us."
Speaking of this, Leo suddenly glanced at Bella and said with a smile: "Besides, as long as we hold this Roger in our hands, then there will be one more family in the imperial court that is not weak to speak for you?" In this way, perhaps when the new emperor ascends the throne, the empire will soon be able to send troops to the Kingdom of France to avenge you. β
Bella was stunned again when she heard this, and then a warm feeling suddenly surged into her heart like gurgling water.
Even in the face of so many things, in the heart of the man in front of him, he has never forgotten the blood feud on his body.
"Thank you, Leo."
Leo laughed and said, "It's all a family, Xie doesn't have to, I'll just look at a fragrant kiss - ouch!" Why are you stepping on my feet again, do you know that it hurts! β
"Don't talk like this hooligan if you haven't officially married me yet, pervert!"
The laughter of the two passed among the flowers, and the crisp laughter was like a burst of fragrance in the air, slowly drifting out far, far away.
In fact, what Bella didn't know was that Leo didn't completely confess, and there was actually something hidden in his heart, something about Leo himself.
There is no doubt that the strength of Leo's men is very strong now, and the strength of the three Sanctuary powerhouses and twenty church masters allows him to ensure that he can escape from this chaos in Ridmar City in the worst case, but Leo looks quite happy on the surface, but the worry in his heart is getting bigger day by day.
For none of these forces are his own.
Leo knew very well in his heart that he was now very useful to both Bishop Gavin and Master Cheeto, and it was precisely because he was useful enough that these two bigwigs of the church would spare no effort to support him and send such a strong lineup.
But these forces are only temporarily under Leo's command.
At the end of the day, that's just someone else's power.
Leo knew very well that until this moment he did not even have a man who was truly and completely loyal to him.
If one day, Leo is no longer useful to these big people, or even becomes a stumbling block that must be removed, these powerful forces will turn their guns around and see Leo as a target that must be killed - and without the slightest mercilessness.
Leo even had a vague feeling that maybe that day was coming soon.
No one wants to be someone else's pawn, and Leo is even more so.
If he wants to break free from this shackle, Leo must have a powerful enough force that is completely his own.
In Leo's opinion, the acquisition of Roger may be a good start.
Once he was able to completely subdue Roger and his family, with Roger's cunning and drilling, Leo felt that this would definitely be a powerful help for him in the future.
The reason why Leo didn't tell Bella these thoughts was not because he didn't trust his lover, but because he didn't want Bella to worry about him, and secondly, Leo was afraid that if he said it, he would be overheardβGod knows if the elusive Sanctuary assassin "Adjudicator No. 1" was nearby at the moment.
Bela's words interrupted Leo's distraction, and the girl looked at her lover, her face full of admiration that could not be concealed: "Leo, I suddenly found that you know a lot about these things, where did you learn all these twists and turns?" β
"Something that bends around?" Leo couldn't help but roll his eyes: "This young lady, this is a very serious experience in political struggle, and it is a necessary skill for people who ******!" Of course, like those fools who only know how to rely on their family background, they will never reach my realm in their lifetime. β
In fact, Leo had another thought in his heart: "Don't learn? If I hadn't learned this, I'm afraid I would have been killed a long time ago. β
Today's Leo seems to be beautiful every step, but he is walking on thin ice and may overturn at any time, he must think crazy and learn, otherwise it may even be a problem to survive.
Survival is always the greatest driving force for human progress.
Looking at Leo's proud expression, Bella couldn't help but say, "Yo, you're still gasping for two words of praise." β
Leo laughed, and suddenly said: "I am the one who will become the Prince of France in the future, if I don't understand this, how can I help my Empress Bella govern our future empire." β
Bella's face turned red and she lowered her head shyly, but the high heels on her feet quietly lifted, and the thin heels shone inexplicably in the night.
However, just as Bella aimed at Leo's foot and slashed it down, Leo suddenly let go of Bela's hand, and jumped away in a moment, flashing Bella's absolutely painful kick.
"Hehe, I'm not stupid, dear Bella, you can't use the same trick on the same person a second time in a short time."
"Leo, stop me! This princess is going to teach you how to speak well, you stinky rascal! β
The gravel road under the feet of the two of them came to an end unconsciously, and a bright light illuminated the sight, and the huge banquet hall was already in front of them.
