237. Happiness came too suddenly
As a woman, Lana is destined to never ascend to the throne, so she must support a puppet to ascend to the throne.
However, her abilities are limited and her wrists are not strong enough.
That war was not only a strategy against the Empire, but also to reduce the strength of the aristocratic faction.
They have too many private soldiers in their hands, and there must be a proper reason for them to release them willingly.
Although they have not bitten a piece of meat from the empire now, the aristocratic faction has been greatly hit, at least in the short term, they will not be able to make any big waves.
But this is just a delay, and if you don't get rid of it, those weeds will eventually grow wildly.
Therefore, Lana hopes to take this opportunity to completely defeat those restless nobles.
But he needed help, and Gurdjieff couldn't count on it, he only obeyed the orders of his father, who was already in his twilight years, and some things could not be seen clearly.
In this way, she can only rely on herself, and for this reason, she will not hesitate to spend such a price to recruit Yushixi over.
Because this is the key to breaking the balance between the royal power and the aristocracy.
A 'heroic' figure of strength is definitely very important, otherwise, those nobles would not have specially fornicated with the church and would have killed Gerjief.
"Your Excellency Yushixi, I hope you can help me." Lana exhaled lightly, and after making up her mind in her heart, she said.
Other than that, there is no other way.
"Tell me about it." When it rains, the head of the stream does not lift and sip tea.
"I hope you can help me ......"
After hearing Lana's request, Yu Shixi put down the teacup with a smile, at this time, the tea was empty, and Yu Shixi spoke: "I am a businessman, and I need to be paid to complete the commission." ”
"What can you come up with as a reward for entrusting me?" Yushixi asked with a grin.
"All the property collected from those nobles belongs to you......" However, these were not enough for Yushixi, he wanted more things.
Lana looked at Yushixi's silent smile, and knew that these things alone couldn't impress Yushixi.
Damn, this demon......
"Also, I have 20 years to live." This is already Lana's biggest concession.
However, Yushixi still looked at her with a smile and a silent expression, as if it was not enough.
"What exactly do you want?" Lana said stubbornly, she really couldn't think of what Brook wanted when it rained.
"Hehe, I want you..... Half the soul. Yu Shixi paused halfway through speaking, and then slowly continued, that smile perfectly interpreted what is called a demon's smile.
"Impossible!" Lana immediately vetoed without any leeway.
"It's only half of your soul, you still have a chance to be reincarnated, if you're lucky, maybe you can make up for your lost part of your soul in the Nine Shadows."
However, there is another sentence that Yushixi did not say, when Lana is lucky enough to complete her soul, it will be a new person, and the woman named Lana will disappear into history.
However, whether her soul can travel to the Nine Shadows is up for debate.
Although she doesn't know where the Nine Shadows are at the mouth of the stream when it rains, Lana still doesn't plan to sell her soul to the demon.
"If Your Excellency is so insincere, then there is no need for us to continue." Lana said with a gloomy face. 、
"Isn't there any sincerity? I think it's a fair price. Yushixi glanced at Lana's sneering look with a smile, and she was not angry, but continued: "That little boy outside, it's worth your price." ”
Suddenly, Lana's face changed, and there was even murderous intent in her eyes, staring at Yushixi deadly.
Suddenly, an extremely terrifying aura pressed from behind Yu Shixi, and the eyes like golden pupils were staring at her at the moment.
Lana only felt a tightness in her chest, and she felt the urge to kneel.
"Jarbede!" But at this moment, Yu Shixi drank dissatisfiedly, and in an instant, the terrifying aura was completely restricted.
Albede lowered his head, his golden pupils vanished, and his face gradually calmed down, as if nothing had happened before.
Yushixi knew that the reason why Yarbede was like this was because Lana showed murderous intent towards him, which Yarbede could not tolerate.
Sighing slightly, Yushixi turned his gaze to Lana again and said, "How are you thinking about it?" ”
“..... Good! But you have to promise that he'll be with me in the end! Lana said through gritted teeth.
"No problem." After saying that, Yushixi snapped his fingers.
The light in the room seemed to dim for a moment, and ice-blue flames ignited out of thin air, revealing a parchment of demonic contracts.
Ignoring the burning soul fire, Rainbrook took the contract paper from it.
A delicate quill appeared in front of Lana.
She took the quill, and at the same time, Yushixi handed her the demon's contract.
"Sign it." Yushixi said in a gentle voice.
Lana's eyes were cold, and she pulled the contract paper fiercely, not even looking at Yushixi for a single look, as if she would be disgusted by it.
His eyes fell on the contract paper, and he picked up the pen and wrote his name.
Lana Thierle Chardon Lyle Valent.
"Very well, then the contract is established, and I will fulfill your wish in accordance with the content of the contract." Yushixi took the contract paper from Lana's hand and took it into his arms.
"Tomorrow morning, you will find that the kingdom is already dominated by the royal family." After saying that, Yushixi stood up, and the dark passage appeared in the room again.
Slowly, Yushixi's figure submerged into it, and the other two also disappeared into the dark passage.
In the room, only the princess was left slumped in the chair.
Early the next morning, the great nobles led by the aristocratic faction in the kingdom were all wiped out overnight, and none of the family members, from people to raw birds, were alive.
Naturally, the royal power faction would not give up this opportunity, and recovered the territory at an extremely fast speed, and the rest of the members of the noble faction who had lost the leading nobles were already scattered.
I believe that even if Lana doesn't need to intervene, the king knows what to do with them.
A few days later, the king himself gave the princess a marriage, and to his astonishment, the king himself gave his daughter to a guard.
And this guard is naturally the princess's personal bodyguard, Clem.
Clem only felt that happiness had come too suddenly, and something unreal.
(Okay, let's move on to the next world, let me think about what the next world is.) )
