The Elven Empress's eyes lit up, and she glanced at me slightly.

I was still expressionless, silent, and drank with a glass.

The Empress pondered for a moment and said, "Indeed, this is true. ”

Master Dewey smiled and said, "I wonder if Her Majesty the Empress is interested in doing business?" ”

"I want to hear about it."

Master Dewey leaned forward a little and said in a low voice: "There are many trees in the Elven Forest, and there are several trees that can be of great use, anyway, it is better to sell it to me, and it can also add some profit to Moonlight City, besides, the Elven Forest also has a god bonus, that is, it is cut down into a stake, and within a few days, new trees can still grow, so how about making money without losing money?" ”

After hearing this, the Elven Empress pondered for a moment and said, "This matter is quite important, I can't make a decision alone, and please wait until I return to China and consult with Her Majesty the Elf Empress before I can give an answer." ”

"It's okay," Master Dewey said, "After all, the Elven Forest is the foundation of Moonlight City, which is understandable. ”

The Elven Empress thanked her, then her eyes rolled and her tone was heavy, and she said, "Some time ago, I heard Elder Xiao Yi say that several scientific researchers from Castle Vechin were killed in the portal of the island, hey, when I heard this news, I couldn't help but feel distressed for a while, those are all pillars of the country!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere changed instantly.

The Goblin King was silent for a moment, and said lightly: "I, Castle Vicky, have always been based on scientific research, and there are more than a hundred heroes and martyrs who have sacrificed their lives for this, and it is precisely because of these people that I have the glory and achievements of Castle Castle today. ”

After a pause, the goblin king raised the wine glass in his hand and said solemnly: "Respect the heroes and martyrs." ”

"Honor the heroes and martyrs."

I also raised my glass, echoed the others, and then drank it all.

The original heavy atmosphere, after a glass, finally eased a little.

The Elven Empress said, "I heard that the portal is opposite the deep sea area, I wonder if your country is now preparing to explore the sea again?" ”

The Goblin King pondered for a moment and said, "This aspect of scientific research has been approved to Master Dewey, if you have any questions, you can directly talk to him." ”

The Elven Empress turned her gaze to Master Dewey.

Master Dewey held the wine glass and said slowly: "Ninety percent has been prepared, and one percent is still owed, but if Her Majesty the Empress is curious, you can come to the test site tomorrow to watch." ”

The Elven Empress nodded and said, "I've been fine for the past few days, but I don't know when the master is convenient?" ”

"Anytime," Master Dewey said leisurely.

"That's good," said the Elven Empress, "Tomorrow at nine o'clock, I will come to the palace on time to find you." ”

"Yes," Master Dewey said lightly, "I will wait for Her Majesty the Empress." ”

The banquet was over, and it was late at night.

When I returned to the villa, I was resting when I found the Elven Empress sitting on the sofa, staring at me intently.

"What's the matter with the Empress?" I asked with a smile as I walked across from her and sat down.

The Elven Empress's face sank like water, and she said lightly: "The matter of the Elven Forest, did you and Master Dewey tell you?" ”

"Elven Forest?" I wondered, "What do you mean?" ”

"It's the fact that the trees in the Elven Forest grow rapidly" The Elven Empress leaned back slightly, put her neck and waist all on the backrest, and said lazily: "You don't have to worry, I just asked casually, it's not a secret that the growth rate of the trees in the Elven Forest is abnormal, Master Dewey is your father-in-law, you talk to him, it's okay, I just ask for verification, and I have a good number in my heart." ”

I chuckled lightly and said, "Your Majesty, you are joking, how can I tell the secrets of a country to the important officials of other countries, even if I am a father and son, I will not talk to others casually, after all, no matter how close the relationship between the two countries is, they are still two countries, and I can still distinguish this position." ”

The Elven Empress slowly lowered her head, her eyes were level with me, she stared at me quietly, her beautiful eyes were full of deep thought and exploration, as if she wanted to make my brain, my thoughts, and my heart all transparent.

I smiled and looked at her calmly, not afraid of her searchlight-like eyes.

After all, I don't do anything bad in my life, and I don't be surprised when I knock on the door in the middle of the night.

I really didn't tell Master Dewey about the Elven Forest, and naturally I wasn't afraid that she would be suspicious of me, and besides, the emperor's family was the most ruthless, and many emperors' families, even between father and son, still had a lot of suspicions, not to mention outsiders?

After a while, the Elven Empress was relieved, she exhaled lightly, and said, "It seems that it is really not you, I am very happy." ”

"Hehe" I chuckled lightly and said, "Your Majesty, I've always had a clear position, what should be said, what shouldn't be said, whether it's confidential or not, as long as I don't get permission, I will definitely not reveal half a word, please rest assured." ”

The Elven Empress bowed her head in agreement.

I continued: "But has the Empress ever thought about the reason why Master Dewey mentioned the word 'heard', can you think that it was actually Master Dewey's intelligence agency who investigated the matter and went back to tell Master to listen to it?" ”

"This ......" the Elven Empress pondered for a moment and said, "It's not impossible, Master Dewey has a huge network and is deeply rooted in various countries, and his intelligence agencies may not be inferior to those of various countries, so it is very easy to figure out the situation in the Elven Forest." ”

"If that's the case, presumably Master Dewey is also well aware of most of the things that are not confidential in Moonlight City," pinching my chin, I said, "Then Your Majesty, what do you think about the business that Master Dewey mentioned?" ”

"Didn't you say it at the banquet," the empress said, "I'll make plans after consulting with the fairy empress." ”

"In that case, why didn't the Empress inform the Fairy Empress of this matter in advance?" I said lightly: "This will also allow the Empress to prepare in advance." ”

"How are you going to ask me to talk to her?" The Elven Empress smiled and said, "Deliver the letter, or through the call crystal at the adventurer's base?" ”

I looked at her expression and said, "Your Excellency, is this unwilling?" ”

"It's not that I'm unwilling," the elven queen said, "It's just this kind of thing, it's better to wait for me to go back and talk to my grandmother in person." ”

After listening to this, I sighed lightly and said slowly: "One moment the fairy queen, and another grandma, you don't like to listen to my advice, and you want to exclude me as an outsider." ”

"How can I!" The Elven Empress retorted, but her slightly flushed cheeks confirmed it.

"The reason why I said those things to you seems to be coercive, but in fact, as an elder, I urge you to do something that I think you should do" I said lightly: "As the emperor of a country, why do you always take face and vanity so seriously? Now is the time for you to humbly ask the Fairy Empress for advice, and if you can tell her many things in advance, it is better to say them in advance, even if you return to China, it will be said that you are the head of the Fairy Queen, it is better than not predicting and digging a well when you are thirsty. ”
