"What choice do we have? I will try to convince Her Majesty Ellie. Kelly sighed helplessly, even if Xiu Zhe does not represent any force, his strength is also qualified to meet the princess.

"But don't get your hopes up, Barn has done something out of it, and the 100,000 army has not been lent to us for nothing. Your purpose should be similar to his, right? Kelly asked, standing up and holding the goggles on her forehead.

"How do I know what the monarch of the Delos Empire is thinking? But I'm here to co-opt an Alliance, not make it a vassal of the Dark Elves or the Duchy of Belmar. ”

Xiu Zhe smiled and continued: "Such tempting conditions are enough for Alijie to be on my side instead of being on the side of the Delos Empire, right?" ”

"Who knows, although the princess is young, she has a very strong political mind, you wait here for my news first, and I will try my best to let the princess meet you." Kelly walked out of the room and closed the door, and a confident smile appeared on Xiu Zhe's face.

The icing on the cake may be that some people will choose to refuse, but no one in the snow will refuse. In particular, the price of obtaining this charcoal is still within the range that is completely acceptable to those who are about to freeze to death by heavy snow.

"I think you're pretty good at negotiating?" Yong Shili said with a smile, if the benefits thrown by Xiu Zhe are still rejected by Ai Lijie, then this princess is either because she became a puppet of the Delos Empire, or her head was caught by the door.

Shrugging his shoulders, Xiu Zhe said lightly: "Practice makes perfect, besides, the chips I have always had are very heavy, whether it is now or negotiating with Queen Meiya at that time, I have benefits in my hands that the other party can't refuse." ”

Sure enough, two hours later, Kelly returned to Xiu Zhe's room, along with five women dressed in the same bizarre costumes as Marin.

"Let's go, the princess wants to see you."

Xiu Zhe smiled and stood up from the single sofa, Yong Shili followed Xiu Zhe out of the room together, Belerian and Agalu followed behind Xiu Zhe without saying a word, as long as a discerning person in this position can see that Belerian and Agalu are servants, and Xiu Zhe and Yong Shili are the masters.

"Guys, let's take the elevator downstairs." The leader of the handmaidens respectfully stretched out his right hand and pointed to a 'door' made of two iron doors.

"Elevator?" Xiu Zhe followed the maid to the iron gate with a little novelty, and the leading maid pressed the mechanism at the iron gate lightly, and suddenly the two iron doors retracted into the walls on both sides, and a small room of only about three or four square meters was displayed in front of Xiu Zhe.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please inside." The leading maid made a gesture of please, and Xiu Zhe walked into the room called the elevator, and the three of them were also slightly curious

followed Xiu Zhe and walked in.

The five maids entered the elevator with Kelly, and the maid at the head pressed the button engraved with the word '1' on it, and the iron door that was retracted into the wall slowly closed, Yong Shili raised her head and looked at the number of floors displayed on the elevator door gradually decreasing, and asked curiously: "This is running on electricity, right?" ”

I can't feel the magic fluctuations in it, this thing is also called the elevator, and the eight or nine are not far from ten, and they run on electricity.

"Yes, this is the most common and common technology in the Celestial Realm." Kelly said with a smile that the people on the Arad Continent are not much different from the primitive people in the eyes of the Celestial Realm, not that they look down on the people of the Arad Continent, but that the scientific and technological strength of the Arad Continent is really backward.

"It's so convenient." Xiu Zhe couldn't help but sigh when he saw that he reached the first floor effortlessly.

Kelly joked, "Envious? No kidding, we celestial people are also very envious of the people of the Arad Continent, swordsmen can fly with swords, magicians can cast magic and float into the sky, and those who cultivate Nian Qi can invoke the Nian Qi in their bodies to make themselves stand in the air. And we can only soar into the sky with the help of machines, although the scientific and technological level of the Arad Continent is backward, it is far more wonderful than our Heavenly Realm. ”

"Then I didn't see that you settled in Arad, and as soon as you could go home, you immediately packed up your things and left." Yong Shili's ridiculous Kelly turned red and replied: "That... I'm still worried about Ghent. ”

If the enemy country is not destroyed, why should it be a family? Although Kelly has taken a lot of care from Shalan, she has never forgotten that she is a member of the garrison team that plays for the orthodox royal family.

"Don't be surprised to see Your Majesty Ellejie later, lest it be rude, she is a fourteen-year-old little Lori." Kelly pulled the conversation back to the point and admonished.

Xiu Zhe nodded, he would never despise the other party because of his young age, if Ai Lijie was not someone's puppet but the real Ghent monarch, then to some extent it would be much more powerful than Xiu Zhe.

But when he walked into the Ghent Palace, under the guidance of the maid, he went to the main hall of the council and saw Ai Lijie, who was sitting on the throne and was only about one meter two tall, and the corners of the eyes of the four Xiu Zhe twitched unconsciously.

As Kelly said, Ai Lijie is a little Lori with golden eyes and brown hair, but the word "little Lori" doesn't seem to be able to perfectly interpret Ai Lijie, and I'm afraid it's more appropriate to describe it with the word young girl, throwing away the royal temperament of Ai Lijie, Xiu Zhe feels that Ai Lijie's age doesn't even seem to be in double digits, just a very cute little girl.

At this time, the main hall of the council was full of high-ranking officials of the royal family and generals who had obviously experienced a lot of wars and life and death, as long as Xiu Zheyi had any unfavorable actions against Ai Lijie, then the heavy firearms stored in the high-tech watches they wore on their wrists were no joke.

Although Xiu Zhe and Yong Shili were a little surprised that Ai Lijie was really too cute, they were silent on the surface, Xiu Zhe bowed slightly, while Yong Shili bent her right leg on the back of her left leg and touched the ground on her toes, put the five fingers of her right hand together under her left shoulder, and slightly bent down to perform a standard Principality of Belmar ceremony.

"Excuse me, Elder Xiu Zhe, who represents the Dark Elf Kingdom, and Princess Yong Shili, who also represents the Principality of Belmar, I have already heard Deputy Captain Kelly explain what you want to discuss with me when you come here." Ai Lijie said loudly, although there was a hint of majesty, the sweet and immature voice that could not be ignored made Xiu Zhe smile bitterly in her heart, why is this feeling so strange?

In fact, it's no wonder that Xiu Zhe felt a little funny, these ministers of the imperial capital under the throne were not used to it at the beginning, but when they saw Ai Lijie's political and diplomatic methods again, they couldn't laugh anymore, but admired this monarch who was only fourteen years old from the bottom of their hearts.

"But listening to Kelly's words may not be comprehensive enough, Elder Xiuzhe, just in case, I still have to make sure that I will provide material and military assistance to our country in the Duchy of Belmar and the Dark Elf Kingdom on the Arad continent to help me destroy Kahlert. The price is that our country will sign an alliance agreement with the Duchy of Belmar and the Dark Elf Kingdom. Ellie paused and continued, "That is, the strongest country that jointly resists the Arad continent, the Delos Empire, right?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, that's all we want." Xiu Zhe responded in a loud voice that was neither humble nor arrogant.

Ai Lijie's big watery eyes narrowed slightly, and she opened her mouth for a while: "Elder Xiuzhe, please forgive Gu for refusing." Don't hide it from Elder Xiuzhe, he doesn't know the strength of the Arad continent and can't stand in line. But this is not the most important reason, I have promised the Delos Empire to ally with them, and without the help of the Delos Empire's 100,000 troops, Gent may have been captured and occupied by Callert. ”

With a chill in his heart, Xiu Zhe was most worried about this situation. Delos's hand came out quickly, but the powerful Delos did not come to the aid of Callett, who had a great chance of winning, but had already made up his mind to support this weak orthodox royal family? The monarch of the current Delos Empire will definitely not be a guy who does not consider the pros and cons before doing things, and the reason for this is that Xiu Zhe has never seen the armed organization of Kalert and it is difficult to make conclusions.

Xiu Zhe originally thought that the Delos Empire sent 100,000 troops to aid Ai Lijie just to wait and see the situation, but now it seems that the Delos Empire's actions are much more than that.

"Since Your Majesty has already made your choice, it won't be to summon us here to make us happy, right?" Yong Shili chuckled and said, Xiu Zhe also reflected that the status of the two of them was not low, if they were unhappy and turned around to cooperate with Caller, then the orthodox royal family might not be able to withstand it even if it had the support of the Delos Empire, and Ai Lijie would not have thought of this.
