Chapter 1684: Lord Lesta is right
As the wee hours of the morning approached, I left a note, quietly went out, boarded a magic airship, and rushed to Dasai City.
The airship arrived in Dasai City in the afternoon.
After getting off the airship, I hurried to the palace.
Go all the way to the Orc King.
The Orc King exchanged pleasantries with me for a while, and after setting a time for the council, invited me to a dinner.
To put it bluntly, this dinner party was just an attitude to show the nobles and ministers, and it didn't matter whether I participated in it or not, so I refused the hypocritical banquet on the grounds that I was tired from the journey and felt deeply tired.
Leaving the palace, I first rushed to the New Heroic Guild, signaling that the guards did not need to be informed, and I tiptoed to the door of Jin Siqi's office, trying to push the door in and startle her.
clinker, the door is locked......
Embarrassed.
After a few knocks, the door opened, and Jin Siqi's slightly tired face appeared in front of me, but when I saw that it was me, I was radiant, smiled in surprise, and said, "You are here, why don't you notify me first." β
I smiled and said, "I want to surprise you." β
When I entered the office, Jin Siqi made me a new pot of tea, and then sat down with me, looking at me vigorously, refusing to look away for a moment.
I laughed and said, "What's wrong?" β
She smiled at the corner of her lips and said stupidly: "I'll see if you've become younger or handsome." β
"How can anyone get younger and younger," I laughed, "unless I am the God of Creation, I will only get older." β
"It's mature," Kim said.
"Yes, it's maturity."
......
After being speechless for a long time, I said, "How are you doing lately?" β
"It's okay," she said with a smile, "the guild is running normally, and it won't be long before it can officially enter the ranks of large guilds." β
"It's all thanks to you that the guild is in the best it is today," I said, "but I care more about how you're doing than the guild." β
After that, he gently stroked the girl's cheek and sighed: "It's only been a long time, and I've lost weight." β
Jin Siqi's cheeks turned red, and he said in a low voice: "If you're fat, you don't look good." β
"Nonsense" Holding her little face, I said emotionally: "My An Xiaoyi's fiancΓ©e, no matter how fat or thin, in my eyes, is a country and a city." β
Jin Siqi was ashamed, lowered his head, and after more than ten seconds, he struggled slightly, broke free from my hand, and said angrily: "In the guild, don't make trouble." β
I laughed evilly: "If you are out of the guild, you can make trouble casually~"
She thumped my chest and said, "It's not okay to leave the guild, when...... It's over, it's over, it's over, when will it ......?"
The sound grew quieter and quieter, and at last the mosquito chirped so faintly that even if there was only a fist between us, I couldn't hear what she was muttering.
But I know what she means.
"Okay, then we'll wait until we're married," I grinned.
I secretly muttered in my heart: "War, start early, and then end early!" β
After an ambiguous and romantic candlelit dinner with Jin Siqi, I rested with her in the villa of the Dreadnought Guild.
After a night, I woke up early, bought a hot breakfast, knocked on the door of Jin Siqi's room, and her lazy, slippery voice came out: "Come in." β
It looks like he just woke up.
Pushing open the door, she was lying on the quilt with a worried face, her hair was also unkempt, and she didn't have the shrewd and capable appearance of yesterday.
Lazily stretched his waist, Jin Siqi looked refreshed and said, "I slept so much." β
"That's good" I smiled and put the breakfast bag on the bedside table, took out the dishes and plates one by one, set them up, handed over a pair of chopsticks, and said, "Eat, hot breakfast, and this-"
He handed over a large paper cup with a straw on it: "Fresh orange juice at a moderate temperature, freshly squeezed juice, extra fresh." β
First, he drank a small half cup of fresh orange juice in one gulp, and burped, Jin Siqi feasted without image in a satisfied expression.
Laughing at her imageless appearance, a sense of steadiness arises spontaneously.
......
......
Nine a.m., Royal Palace, Dasai City, Conference Hall.
The Orc King, Lesta, and other dignitaries sat around the table with me to discuss important national matters.
Because of the teachings of Old Man Taylor, I pretended to listen carefully, but in fact, my mind was not on the agenda at all.
There are many topics on the subject this time, but the first and most important is the seizure of a mine.
This cave is not within the borders of Dasai City, but at the junction of Dasai City, Ari City and York Han.
It is a natural mine cave purchased by Dasai City for a lot of money.
The cave is rich in coal and iron ore, and the amount of mining is quite high every year, so it can be said that it is a very promising piece of industrial income in Dasai City.
Just four days ago, a team of unidentified adventurers, passing through the mine, suddenly attacked, not only killing the workers in the mine, but also taking the mine for themselves.
The killing of citizens is an outrageous thing, and the occupation of the mine is a challenge to the authority of the state.
The Orc King was furious and was about to order an army to encircle and suppress him, but was stopped by Lesta.
The reason is very simple, in order to figure out the identity of the other party, it is best not to rush to send troops, if the other party is really an ordinary wandering adventurer, or a bandit and robber, it is also good, either give some money, include them in the country, divide them, or send troops to encircle and suppress, although some manpower may be lost, but the result is clean and clean, and there will be no trouble.
But if the other party is not a wandering adventurer, but is assigned by someone, then it will be troublesome.
No one knows who is behind them, nor does they know how many people will be behind them.
Above all, the world is now unstable, and the relationship between Dasai and Vechborough and Yorkham is more rigid, and these people are very likely to be subordinate to either of them.
A rash move is very likely to break the peace that has always been in place and escalate the situation into a military confrontation.
It doesn't matter if we meet each other, the trouble is whether we occupy an advantageous angle, and in the eyes of the world, whether our move is reasonable and whether it is legitimate defense.
Lesta shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that I'm afraid that I'm afraid that I'll be framed by Ari City and Yorkhan, saying that we are in the public domain, deliberately harming adventurers from other countries, and we are even more suspicious of painting the territory." β
"yes."
"Yes, yes, Lord Lesta is right."
......
The dignitaries agreed, believing that Lesta's idea was correct, and even the Orc King nodded approvingly.
Soon, all eyes were on me, the honorary prime minister, and they were waiting for my answer.
I looked around and said shyly, "Don't look at me like that, I'll be embarrassed." β
Burst!
A dignitary couldn't hold back, and the tea he had just drunk in his mouth squirted all over the ground.
The orc king laughed awkwardly twice and said, "Xiao Yi, tell me your opinion." β
"Me?" I pointed to my nose and frowned, "I don't think much, and like you, I agree with Lesta." β
"Oh?" The Orc King smiled and said in a deep voice, "Since you also agree with Lesta's idea, then tell me how to implement the suggestions he made." β
