Volume 1 Edge Chapter 36 Countermeasures
Chapter 36 Countermeasures
It was late at night when General Lance returned, and he summoned the servants of the night watch, and was relieved to learn that the children had already gone to bed, and went back to his bedroom.
However, it is clear that General Lance has not had the heart to rest now, and this time when he entered the palace, he had already learned from King Kerry the reason behind the whole thing, as he guessed, the matter was related to the temple. The reason why King Kerry made this decision was, on the one hand, a temptation of the temple, and on the other hand, King Kerry was also genuinely thinking about this daughter.
General Lance also agreed with King Carry's decision, but so what? King Carey himself didn't want to persecute Leah's daughter too much, so he put the blame on General Lance and asked him to find a way to convince Princess Leah, but he couldn't refuse, because if the things mentioned in the secret agreement were true, then not only Leah, but even Lore would be implicated!
General Lance was in a dilemma, and finally gritted his teeth and agreed, but when he thought of those children, he had a splitting headache, and he was not at all sure that he could persuade his own daughter, and there were some things that he couldn't tell her!
How is this good? General Lance looked sad, and finally thought of his wife, and if she had helped, maybe there would be a solution!
General Lance thought about how to speak, and gently woke up Mrs. Lance.
On the other side, Lore and the others, who should have fallen asleep a long time ago, were still awake in good spirits, sitting around the table in Kylo's room.
At the moment when the side door of the General's Mansion was opened, Luoer's eyes widened suddenly, and he said, "He's back!
Kylo rubbed his eyes and said helplessly, "Are you sure we're going to do this?"
Aiqi and Leah were also a little hesitant, although they were princes and princesses, they were just guests here, how could any guests eavesdrop on the host's corner?
Yes, eavesdropping! And that's Lore's idea. She felt that her father's attitude during the day was very strange, and it was King Kerry who made the decision, and she felt that her father was likely to stand on the same front as King Kerry, so she made this decision to listen to the corner, so that she could understand the inside story as soon as possible and make plans early!
Lore said angrily, "I don't care, what are you afraid of?
"I'm not afraid of this, it's just that General Lance won't necessarily be on His Majesty's side, and besides, how do you know that he will tell your mother about it as soon as he returns?"
Lore rolled his eyes, "I know my dad very well, he will tell my mother about anything as soon as possible! I can guarantee that we will definitely hear what we want to hear this time!" But-" Lore frowned, "What are you talking about that you shouldn't hear?"
Kylo suddenly felt choked, a little embarrassed for a while, and Edge's expression on the side was also a little unnatural.
Kylo cleared his throat and changed the subject, "What are you going to do if both your father and your mother choose to side with Your Majesty?"
Lore frowned and looked at Leah on the side: "Leah, you really don't want to marry?"
Leah gritted her teeth and said, "Absolutely not!"
"At what cost?"
"No matter what it takes!"
Aitch was startled and said, "Lor, what do you want to do?
Lore glanced at him and said, "Don't worry, I'm measured." It's a big deal, let's run away from home! I'll elope with Leah, and you two will be our bodyguards! If it's not enough, we'll pull Nolans and An An again, and our whole team will go through the rivers and lakes together!"
Isn't that stupid enough?
Aitch and Kylo looked at each other and sighed at the same time, with what they knew about Lore, she really did it!
Lore urged: "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up, wait and pay attention to the aura, my mother's magic level is very high, even if there is a soundproof scroll, be careful!"
Leah put Nono in the room for the time being, and she got up and followed Lore out of the room, and Kylo and Aitch sighed again and crept out the door.
Fortunately, General Reims's Mansion is too simple, and there are very few people on the night vigil, under the leadership of Lore, a few people easily avoided them, which can also be seen from this, Lore is definitely not the first time to act secretly at night, her set of actions can be comparable to the best thieves!
In a few moments, the group had already arrived at the corner behind the room of the Lances, and Lohr's eyes signaled that they were secretive, so he quietly took a few steps forward and put his ear to the window.
Just as Lore expected, General Lance was talking to his wife, and listening to the content, it was about Leah's marriage!
The first sentence in the ears made several people frown.
In the bedroom, General Lance said, "Madam, I need you to help me convince Leah to marry into the Winster Empire!"
Leah was behind, so Kylo couldn't see her expression, but Lore's expression was clearly out of anger!
Kylo sighed and reached out to grab Lore's wrist, and Lore turned his head to see Kylo shake his head, motioning for her to stay calm.
Lore took a deep breath, nodded in agreement, and then turned his head to continue listening, but Aitch in the back frowned slightly as he saw that Kylo didn't let go of his hand again.
The conversation continued in the bedroom, and Mrs. Lance's voice came: "Well, I can persuade you, but is it really appropriate? I don't think it's really for Leah's sake, and you really believe that Grimm's nonsense?
General Lance sighed, "I've thought about what you said, but I'd rather believe that Grimm than Ion!
Mrs. Lance also knew his hostility to Ion, so she had to agree: "I can only say that I try my best, and you also know that our daughter's temperament doesn't know who to follow! It's not so easy to persuade, and it's about Leah's lifelong happiness, even if Leah is usually sensible and obedient, I'm afraid she won't compromise easily this time!"
"Well, of course I know, that's why I'm going to talk to you!
Mrs. Lance said: "How can this be deceived? Use your brain to think about it! If it really doesn't work, just put it off, the coming day will be long, didn't you say that the prince still needs to stay a little longer in our Lanze? Let's try to create some opportunities for them first!"
"And what are we going to tell them tomorrow?"
"Say it well! Anyway, you can't tell the truth! Otherwise, Lore's girl will definitely run away with Leah! I can guarantee that she will do it!"
I have to say that Mrs. Reims still knows her daughter very well, and just now, Lore has put "Wandering Rivers" on the schedule.
This was almost the end of the conversation between the Lances, and the rest was just some gossip, and the Lore did not listen any further, and left cautiously.
As soon as he entered the room, Lore clapped his hands and said, "No way! They have already defected!
As he spoke, Luo Er took out a world map from the space ring: "Tell me!Where are you going to go?" I personally suggest that it is best to stay away, I think the Zhenyue Empire is quite good!"
The corners of Kailo's eyes twitched when he heard this, and he hurriedly interrupted Luoer's itinerary planning: "Luoer, the Zhenyue Empire is far away from the ocean, are you realistically better!"
"Then where do you say we're going?"
Kylo frowned, "What sun?!We're going—we're not going anywhere!"
Lore said displeased, "Kylo! Do you know! This is a lifelong event for Leah!"
Kylo sighed and ignored Lore's reprimand, in his opinion, Lore wanted to help Leah is true, but part of it is to satisfy his fantasy of "wandering the rivers and lakes"!
Kylo said, "Lor, calm down first, listen to me!Leah, it's your own business, so it's up to you to make the final decision." Now, I'll start with a method, whether you want to listen to it or not, and whether you want to do it after listening, that's your question!"
Leah hesitantly glanced at Lore, who looked displeased, and then at Edge, who was also worried, pursed the corners of her mouth, and said, "Kylo, tell me what you think first!"
Kylo touched his chin and said slowly, "My idea is very simple, that is, wait. ”
"Wait?!" Lohr was furious: "What's the difference between this and what my mother said? Could it be that you also want to wait for Leah to change her mind, marry her, and then suffer for the rest of your life?"
Kylo was already very helpless about Lore's impatience, he endured it and said, "Of course I don't want Leah to marry! ”
"Listen, I think there's a good chance that the Seven Princes are on the same page as us!"
"How is this possible? He's the one who came to ask for a kiss!"
"Of course it is possible! King Carey can force Leah to marry, so why can't Emperor Winster force this seventh prince to do the same?"
Aiqi said: "It's just your expectation, do you have any proof?"
Kylo glanced at Aitch suspiciously, feeling that his eyes seemed strange, but he didn't care, and continued, "There is no evidence, only some speculation. You think, this Seventh Prince can achieve such a good reputation in Winster, and even many people think that he can inherit the throne, and he has also obtained the approval of the strongest shield under the artifact, do you say, such a person can really be as unbearable as he becomes? I don't think so, then, what is his purpose?"
Aiqi frowned: "Are you saying that he is likely to behave like this on purpose, causing us to resent us, so as to force us to refuse the marriage contract first?"
Kylo nodded, "I think it's possible." Also, was that secret agreement presented to His Majesty by the Seventh Prince?"
Aitch shook his head, "No, it was submitted by the accompanying head of the guard!"
Kylo adjusted the frame of the mirror slightly, and said, "Heh! Then I have a certain certainty! I think the Seventh Prince must be very annoyed to learn of the existence of that secret contract!"
