Chapter 124: Lifting the Threat
The half-step legendary powerhouse is still very few for King Lithir, Princess Rachel usually lives in the depths, and occasionally leaves in a hurry when she appears in public, so most people don't know much about Princess Rachel, including his father Leonardo, as a king, he has to deal with state affairs every day, not to mention intrigue with the Sungazer family, and he doesn't have much time to care about his daughter who doesn't even have the right to inherit, in his eyes Rachel is a bargaining chip, which can be exchanged for more benefits at any time, So Rachel, as a princess, only needs to be responsible for her own beauty, and as for the rest, Leonardo doesn't care at all. If it weren't for the king's personal bodyguard, Sean, who was suddenly suspected of rebellion, Rachel would not have come forward at all.
"Rachel! You don't marry His Royal Highness? Who are you going to marry? Daris or Charlie? Do the two of them dare to ask for it? ”
"Dare! Of course you dare!! Charlie, who had watched the play from the beginning, finally uttered the first words after Leonardo finished speaking.
"Charlie Leo Cornwall! Do you know what you're talking about?! King Leonardo's mood at the moment can be said to be like thunder, Charlie's voice made him feel angry than Rubio's public humiliation of him, the twelfth heir is equivalent to nothing, marrying him is not as useful as marrying Daris.
"Of course, Your Majesty, I'm sure."
Leonardo looked at Charlie, then at Rachel, and finally at Lilith, and then everything was clear: "How can you decide this matter in place of the Prince of the Empire and the Emperor?" You're not even a princess!! Just a little messenger!! You will be executed when you return home!! "Leonardo dared to quietly release his suppressed ambitions because of the support of the empire, and now he has completely broken with the Sunwatcher family, originally as long as he married his daughter, he could crush the Sunwatcher family 100%, and now all this has become uncontrollable, which makes Leonardo extremely depressed.
"What will happen to me in the future is something that His Majesty the Emperor should consider, so I don't bother with Your Majesty the Emperor."
"I want to see His Royal Highness and hear him admit it himself! Otherwise, Rachel can't marry anyone!! ”
"Hahahaha! Leonardo, it's not certain when His Royal Highness will return, you can take care of your own affairs first, from now on behalf of the Sungazer family, I officially declare war on you and your family!! Prepare to die!! Sean do it!! Rubio said as he took the weapon in his hand, and the feeling of the salted fish turning over made him feel very happy.
"Sean, step aside." Rubio's sword was already raised above his head, but Rachel's voice made him stop his next move.
"Yes, Your Highness Princess." Sean saluted and waved his hand, and the heavily armored soldiers put away their weapons and returned from the same way with a very fast pace, and closed the door as they went.
"This? What? How so? Didn't you say yes? This....... This ......" Rubio was also extremely embarrassed at the moment, he was laughing at Leonardo just now, and in the blink of an eye, he became a joke.
"Hahahaha! Rubio, you idiot!! I'm sure you've met with our Imperial Emissary before!! Leonardo couldn't help but laugh when he saw Rubio's funny appearance, and he picked up the wine barrel and didn't pour it into the wine glass, but poured two sips directly and violently. The princess of this empire is really not something that ordinary people can be, my Rachel is not so lucky. ”
"King Leonardo is indeed more suited to control this country than the Sungazer family, and when His Royal Highness returns, he will discuss the alliance with Your Majesty."
"Thank you, father, for fulfilling me and Charlie." Rachel put away her breath and turned into a delicate girl again.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, believe me, I will definitely make Litir more prosperous!" Charlie got down on one knee to show respect for Leonardo.
"Rubio, what are you doing with your sword? Get out of here, if you don't understand, go back and continue to think, before the sun goes down tomorrow, you must have an explanation for what you did today, or go to war directly, I, Leonardo, are too lazy to talk nonsense with your family anymore. After saying that, Leonardo poured himself two more sips.
"Lilith!! I will not forget the humiliation you brought me!! Rubio's sword above his head shook several times, and finally he put it away, even if he didn't understand it all, he probably had an outline in his heart, and finally he could only angrily leave with a few of his guards who had been restrained.
"It's all gone, the banquet is over today, let's go, don't disturb me drinking." Leonardo didn't want to deal with anything more tonight, and getting drunk was what he wanted to do most right now.
Lilith got up and said goodbye to Leonardo for the first time, today's mission was perfectly over, and everything was still under control, which made Lilith very happy.
"Thank you, Your Highness the Princess, for everything you have done for us." Just as Lilith and Sero walked out of the hall, Charlie and Rachel chased them from behind.
"I'm more for myself." When Lilith learns about the final reward of Lucini's mission, she immediately starts to set it up, and in one day she meets Rubio, Princess Rachel, and King Leonardo.
When meeting Rubio, Lilith made it clear that she would not give up the identity of the first princess, hoping that Rubio could challenge Leonardo at the banquet, and Lilith would resolutely oppose Princess Rachel marrying the empire, Rubio agreed on the spot, and immediately sent someone to contact all the people he trusted and worthy, and took risks to prepare his plan, so Rubio dared to openly accuse the king on that occasion because he himself supported the empire behind him.
After that, Lilith first found Princess Rachel, and after expressing her intentions, the two had a deep secret conversation in the room, and finally after learning that Rachel had a little bit with Charlie, she decided to start from here, but Charlie refused directly at first, after all, he still wanted to return to his own country, and he didn't figure it out until he finally went to the banquet.
And meeting with King Leonardo is to show his identity and the specific situation of the army's presence in Litir, as for the secret letter and the like, it is all fake, of course, it was forged through the authorization of Emperor Karl, in order to minimize the negative impact on the empire, and the important reason why Leonardo did not pursue this matter and helped to fulfill the lie is because Lilith said that she would not stand up to prevent Princess Rachel from marrying. At the same time, Rubio took advantage of King Leonardo's meeting with Lilith to bribe Sean, the chief of the bodyguard, who had already defected to Princess Rachel, with a lot of money, otherwise Rachel would have learned a half-step legend from someone.
In the end, everything fell into place, Lilith took advantage of the Rubio family's dissatisfaction with the ruler, King Leonardo's ambition to hug his thighs, Princess Rachel's unwilling to act as a bargaining chip and Charlie's desperate desire to become famous cracked the threat to her future first princess, because in terms of Zhang Hao's grand strategy, Tyrrell's position is still very critical, so Lilith couldn't determine Zhang Hao's true thoughts without contacting Zhang Hao, and was forced to take the initiative to complete all this, The Corden family is worthy of being the heir to the family that once controlled the economic lifeline of the empire for a hundred years, and their grasp of people's hearts and situations is extraordinary.
