Chapter 53: Resolve step by step
According to the international trade airport management agreement signed by the governments of the parties, the Normans and the staff sent by the Kingdom of Basel were not allowed to carry any weapons in Belakaser, but as an air port with large quantities of goods coming in and out every day, it was not easy to secretly transport people, and it was not a trivial matter to get a few guns in. In the Norman-administered area, Prince Barras and Gunnevere were closely guarded by armed men. Although the situation did not seem to be easy to control, compared to the previous situation next to the Norman flying ships, Weiss felt that there was much more room for manoeuvre, he motioned for the members of the emergency team to stay outside and arranged for people to mobilize the emergency forces of the airport, but not to act rashly, but to deploy on the perimeter, and told him to cooperate with the special forces led by Octavier once they arrived. Of course, if the problem can be solved in a peaceful way, then try not to use force, after all, peace is bought by millions of soldiers in exchange for their lives. How unworthy it would be to overturn this precious peace for the sake of a mere elopement fool.
With great courage, Weiss single-handedly entered the Norman administration. He calmly observed the environment, and in his particular vision, many Normans had turned into red frames, which meant that they were already hostile. As long as their leader gives the order, these Normans will not hesitate to go into battle, whether it is peaceful or not, whether it is peaceful or not.
In the lounge area, the Normans set up comfortable sofas, coffee tables, and wine coolers. From a general point of view, it is still very bourgeois and has a certain style, but for the reception of royals, I am afraid this is a bit inappropriate - after going to the Norman Empire, Weiss has an intuitive understanding of the enjoyment of the Norman high-level.
Prince Barras held Gunevere in one hand and a crystal clear glass in the other, the golden liquid of which was supposed to be a Norman spirit called Forgetfulness—literally. During his visit to the Norman Empire, Weiss drank it, it was very spicy in the mouth, had a long aftertaste, and was so strong that ordinary people could get drunk with two or three glasses...... If it is really "forget worries",
Then Prince Barras is undoubtedly venting his emotions by choosing this spirit. A person who uses alcohol to vent his emotions gives people the impression that he is prone to anger and mood swings, and may even be drunk and domestic violence. How can such a person be a wishful Langjun?
Wei Si scolded these and silently looked at the expressions of the two people in front of him. At this point, he no longer wanted to inquire about whether Prince Barras was real or fake, but wanted to know what Gunevere really thought. She is a first-class singer, or a singer who wants to be a secret agent, she directed and acted in this kind of scene when she was in the Norman Empire, and now will she be repeating the same old trick? If this is the case, is it too big to bring Prince Baras, who is in charge of the military power of the Norman Empire, to Lorraine?
What made Weiss even more puzzling was that when the Alliance delegation visited the Norman Empire, Prince Barras obviously exposed the lame performance of Gunnevere stealing the blueprints of weapons, how could he like her? However, if it is hypocritical, why bother to go outside the Norman Empire in person, not to mention personal safety, it is a rather long journey. It's hard not to achieve in order to mock each other's IQ.
Gunevere held the teacup in both hands, and the teacup was steaming. Back indoors, with hot tea in hand, her situation seemed to have eased considerably. It seems that the cold outside combined with nervousness was the "culprit" behind her previous anomaly. If you don't want to live a good life, why bother?
"Are you two sure that each other is the other half you are looking for in this life? How much do you know about each other in just a few days? Miss Gonevere, you don't even understand Norman, and you, Prince of Baras, speak Ulster, but are you really okay with our culture? Weiss throws up questions that are usually only the concern of worried parents.
"I was attracted by her singing, I saw the perfect angel, and I am willing to use this life to care for her and not let her suffer even the slightest grievance!" Ballas said categorically. As he said this, he glared at Weiss viciously. The implication is that Weiss's offense just now is close to his bottom line, and the defender of this oath is only about to cut him.
"What about you, Miss Gunnevere? Is that what I just said about the yearning for the life of the princess, the obsession with dreams? There is always a line between dreams and reality, and you really want to live in a dream like this? ”
Gunevere hesitated for a moment and replied in a low voice, "I'm tired of my life now, tired of singing for other people. I want to find my true self and live for myself, and I want to have my own pursuits, not to be busy all day. I feel like I met my prince at a time when I was expecting a prince to appear, and I believe he was the one I had been waiting for. ”
Weiss didn't know how to make the exotic mandarin ducks realize that their union was difficult to be blessed, just like the bitter scenes of the past, where the evil mother-in-law wanted to break up the couple...... He would never have imagined that such a plot would appear around him, and he himself would have to play the role of the evil mother-in-law.
"Since you are happy and above board, why can't you go through the formalities? Is it simply because you are sensitive? If it is indeed because of this consideration, I can keep it a secret for you, and no one else will know about it except for Gunewelle's immediate family and legal officials. How do you feel that it won't have any impact on your life? Weiss asked tentatively.
Ballas took a sip of the wine in the glass, frowned slightly, and said, "If you can do what you just promised, I can wait, as long as it's not too long." But I want to remind you that this ideal situation is almost impossible to achieve, and the officials will not let us be combined in such a way that no one knows, not to mention the good things for the journalists. In order to absolve themselves of their responsibilities, they will definitely find ways to get the news out and let public opinion enforce the law on their behalf. ”
What Barras said was not impossible, and Weiss really couldn't guarantee anything, after all, it wasn't just a local affair, and Gunevere wasn't from Lorraine. If from a legal point of view, it is indeed feasible to go through the legal formalities for their marriage in Lorraine, but all the responsibility, all the spearheads, and all the hidden dangers will be attributed to themselves. Do you really want to do that?
Weiss does not consider these things in terms of self-centeredness, he is not afraid of being pointed out by thousands of people, but if he becomes the focus of contradictions, then all kinds of promotions for Lorraine's development, all the achievements that have been made, and the trend of thriving development, may be catastrophic. It's hard to sacrifice yourself in order to fulfill the strange lovers in front of you.
So, Weiss changed his mind, speculating about whether he could go through the normal visa formalities for Gunevere and go to the Norman Empire under the guise of travel or something else, but this actually had a fatal problem: Weiss clearly knew that she was going to stay with the prince of Barras, so the travel visa was destined to become a problem visa, and he could not do anything that was illegal and unlawful.
"Or, we can solve this problem the way men do, instead of hiding and hiding and hiding it." Weiss set his sights on Prince Barras.
"What does it mean to solve problems like a man?" Prince Barras asked coldly, "Duel or what?" ”
Weiss did not hesitate, but raised his head and said, "In the way we first met, it was a military skill contest or a war game deduction. If I win, you leave alone. If you win, I can help you get you out. ”
"Your military skills competition? Well...... Let's still deduce weapons! The first time we met, you won Sedlinz in a war game and taught the guy a lesson. If it weren't for that time, he wouldn't have calmed down and painstakingly studied tactics and strategies for most of the next half a year, and he wouldn't have had the magical performance of the early days of the war. Speaking of which, I should also thank you. Barras raised the corners of his mouth, saying that it was a little ironic to Weiss, but he was not moved, but looked at the other man calmly.
"So, then I should have people take out the sand table and deploy, three war games - the Battle of North Fries, the Battle of the Northern Frontier, the Battle of Aocheng, or whatever...... Whether it's spending most of the night today or starting tomorrow morning, you've managed to stall and trap me here. Next, there's no way I'm going to take Gunevere away anyway, I'm right? ”
Although Barras poured himself more than half a glass of wine, he did not seem to be paralyzed by alcohol at all, but was very sober, and his tone of voice was extremely calm.
Indeed, Weiss was trying to stall for time, as he had sent a telegram to Octavier. If all goes well, Octavir and the Secret Service personnel are on their way, and perhaps the relevant personnel of the diplomatic department have also received orders. In this way, the events that took place in Lorraine would not have left him alone as a governor to bear all the responsibility...... In some positions, it is not suitable to pay attention to individual heroism, especially when encountering an opponent with a special status like Baras. Frankly, this is something that should be left to someone higher.
Seeing through this by Baras, Weiss smiled, "I have made it very clear just now, if you want to take Gunevere, you will either shoot all of us here and then step over our corpses. No one can predict what the consequences will be, but of course your position can withstand even the worst things, can you? ”
"You're smart and cunning, I'm not mistaken." Prince Barras said this neither in praise nor in disgust, but in a posture that saw through the world. He turned to look at Gunevere, "I'm sorry, we can't leave here today, but I can spend a few days here with you." After that, we will be separated for a short period of time, and I will find a way to solve the problems that are bothering me, and then I will pick you up openly. ”
Gunevere seemed a little sad, but Weiss's words just now obviously touched him a lot, after all, if her dream is now sacrificed by other people, especially an old acquaintance and old friend like Weiss, then even if she gets personal happiness, it will be difficult to feel at ease.
Then Barras turned to Weiss and said, "All right! This game, you win. I won't take her away this time, you can stay outside with your people until I leave alone. ”
Seeing that Weiss still had some hesitation, he snorted: "I can do what I say, this is my reputation, and it is also the honor of the Norman royal family." ”
Weiss nodded reluctantly, looked at Gunvael again, and seeing that she didn't look like she was leaving, he patted his leg and got up and said, "Okay then!" I will come back tomorrow morning to greet His Royal Highness. Please understand that our people will be stationed outside in the evening! ”
With that, he walked out of the Norman administration alone. At this time, the members of the emergency response team were still outside, and the garrison of the Belakaser air port had been mobilized to surround the place, of course, to keep an appropriate distance, so as to avoid direct confrontation between the two sides and misfire. Next, Weiss arranged for a tight guard, and he asked for a room to monitor the area, moved a chair, and sat in front of the window. Squint under the blanket for a while, open your eyes for a while, squint for a while, open your eyes for a while, and so on.
At midnight, a Union transport ship arrived in from the northeast and arrived in Belakasser. As Weiss had expected, Octavier arrived with soldiers from the Secret Service. She is Gunevere's sister, although she is only a cousin, but after all, she grew up with Gunnevere and has a deep affection, so it is undoubtedly more appropriate for her to persuade Gunevere to give up this crazy and adventurous action.
Instead of taking her into the Norman administration, Weiss spied out and found that Prince Barras and Gunvire were still inside—Ballas was particularly mentally strong, while Gunnivel was much weaker than ordinary soldiers, and these two special frames proved that they were still here. After all, the Normans didn't know that Weiss had this special ability, and it was impossible to cover it up accordingly.
Worried about Gunevere's comfort, Octavier was a little anxious to find out, and with Weiss's patient guidance, he reluctantly agreed to wait until the queen of heaven to enter.
