In the end, Rita decided to retreat to the border of the Duchy of Bachisati first, there was no way, as I said before, the terrain was unfavorable, and because of another news brought back by the scouts, Rita naturally knew that the current Ranrivata City was very well defended, and the population screening, passes, and everything was pediatric, and restricting access was a headache, so that it was impossible for her to sneak in with people now.

But think about it, most of the reasons why he was able to take so many towns and capture the Otto royal family in a few days by surprise before was still on the other party, lax defense, corruption inside, cowardice and incompetence.

Truth be told, if those things happened in the Duchy of Evel, Rita couldn't have imagined it. Of course, if there really is such a day, then she will definitely use bloody means to kill chickens and monkeys. After all, what she wants is a prosperous world where everyone can be fed and clothed, not the kind of bloodsampire group that can't even stabilize inside.

"I don't know what happened to that girl, I listened to Morse before, and then I calculated the time, it was almost this time......" But think about it, it's the first time Rita has seen so many disasters and hardships in life, from the general, the princess, to the later doctors, students, last time it was rare to become a cat, if she could, she really wanted to pick it up and scratch it, "It's a pity......"

……

And at the same time that Rita was spending money in the Duchy of Bachisati, there was a new change on the side of the empire.

"The second brother was called by His Majesty to the eastern defense line, and I don't know what the reason is."

"Your Majesty has his own ideas after all." Ray Hodge, that is, Angelo's housekeeper, because he watched Angelo grow up, so it can be said that he has deep trust, so he also knows the attitude of his Royal Highness, in general, he is a cold-hearted person on the outside, obviously cares about it, but he deliberately pushes people away, and the second highness does not understand his own highness, so that now the relationship between the two has completely become the kind of "unhappy if you don't choke a few words when you meet".

"I know, but it's impossible for me or him to agree with his thoughts, but forget it, anyway, Isaiah Humer is over there, and that guy's ability is not weak, even one person is estimated to be able to live well."

Because he had a good relationship when he was a child, Angelo actually knew how powerful Ronald was, at least he knew that he couldn't beat that person, of course, in other aspects, it can be said that he was born a little burlier than that guy, but he didn't care about these things, anyway, no one is perfect, and there are so many people in this world, there are always some existences that you can't defeat no matter what, but I don't know why he and Ronald have the same opinion on this point, It's like the attitude Dalena took after she was imprisoned.

"Forget it, don't talk about him, is there any movement over there in the Syalana Islands these days?" Not only Ronald, in fact, Angelo is also paying attention to this matter all the time, after all, the current turmoil in the empire is not a day or two, and the seriousness of it can be seen that it has lasted for so long, after all, if it is not serious, it is estimated that it will be solved long ago.

"It's just petty theft, it's not a big move, but because of the increase in numbers, the fishermen on the beach have increased their income a lot."

"Oh? That's a good thing. Angelo hooked his lips, but there was no smile in his eyes.

"What is Your Highness going to do? You must know that if the Syalana Islands don't act, then the Empire will definitely not be able to do too many things out of the ordinary. "Otherwise, it will involve diplomatic issues, of course, this point Lei did not say, because Angelo, as the eldest prince, naturally knows this.

"Then to put it another way, didn't they send people to the empire? That's a big deal, and we'll just learn from them. ”

"Your Highness means ......"

"It's what you think, in my opinion, they've been peaceful for too long, and if you don't find something for them to do, how can they be worthy of those people being so leisurely." Angelo stared down at his right hand, wondering what he was thinking.

"In that case, I'll hurry up and arrange manpower."

"Go ahead, no, wait a minute."

"Is there anything else Your Highness can do?" Originally, Ray had already turned around, but when he heard Angelo shouting to him, he turned around again.

"Dalena's side...... Is there any news coming back lately? ”

Angelo's words made Lei slightly stunned, and then he pondered for a moment before replying: "Some time ago, I heard that Her Royal Highness the princess seems to be coming in this direction of the royal capital, and I don't know if this news is true, if it is possible, it must be the matter of the past few days." ”

"It's groundless, since there is this news coming back, then even if it doesn't, it will be treated as if it is, anyway, she must not be in danger."

"I see, I'll send more people to deal with it."

Angelo waved his hand, just letting Ray go, but the heart in his chest was beating so hard for some reason that it felt like something bad was about to happen.

After a few more days, because of the uneasiness in his heart, Angelo has been concerned about the progress of this matter, but when it really happened, he felt that all this was so unreal.

"Your Highness is not good, your Highness is not good......" In the morning, just when Angelo had just finished breakfast and was about to correct the official documents, Lei's voice suddenly came in from outside the door with an obvious panic, accompanied by the figure who pushed the door in. Angelo was a little dissatisfied, after all, as a prince, although he was not as particular as other nobles, he still attached great importance to etiquette, but when he caught a glimpse of the bloodstained butler uniform on Lei's body, he stood up with a "pout".

"What's going on?" Angelo asked, and Lei didn't know that the other party was asking about the blood stains on his body, so he didn't talk nonsense but said very anxiously: "I can't say a word or two about what happened, in short, Your Highness, you should go with me to take a look first." ”

"Okay." Angelo nodded, and at the same time raised his feet and walked towards the door, and after a while, the two of them came to a guest room, of course, this room was extremely chaotic at this time, in addition to all kinds of noisy sounds, there were maids coming and going, carrying or carrying something.

"Come on, come on, everyone let go, Your Highness is here."

Lei's words made the entire room instantly quiet, and then after reacting, everyone saluted Angelo, but he seemed a little impatient at this time.

"Okay, let's save people first." Angelo waved his hand, his gaze went straight through the crowd and finally landed on the big bed, and the others were busy again after getting his words, and it was a shame that he was not in the palace now, otherwise he probably wouldn't have been able to bring in the bed.

"Your Highness......"

Lei moved his lips, and Angelo didn't know that the other party had something to say when he saw him like this, so he also retracted his gaze at this time and said, "It's Angel on the bed, right?" ”

"Yes, it's Miss Angel." Probably because the features were too obvious, so it wasn't surprising that Angelo could recognize them.

"What about the others?"

"When I first found it, Miss Angel was the only one, and although our people also explored the area, perhaps because of Miss Angel's injury, we didn't stay too long."

Ray's words silenced Angelo, and although he knew that there was nothing wrong with the way those people had handled it, he was a little anxious at the thought that Dalena's whereabouts were now unknown, and he even really wanted to take someone to find it himself if it was possible. But he couldn't, this was his agreement with his father Elias Olnis, and he also knew that since someone dared to attack the princess of the empire, the preparation must be sufficient, and with the time difference in between, what could he do if he went to check it himself? Let's not talk about whether it can be found out, if he also falls into an ambush and something happens, then this fun will be great.

"Have you sent someone out since you came back?"

"Yet, has Your Highness thought of anything?" Seeing that Angelo's face was a little wrong, Lei was also a little nervous for a while, for fear that the lord in front of him would do something irrational when he was angry.

"It's just that she doesn't worry, she doesn't know what to do now, Miss Angel, as one of Dalena's guards, although she is not the strongest one, but ...... Now that she's hurt so badly, it's weird to think about it, and what I'm most afraid of now is that she's been caught. ”

“…… Indeed, such a possibility cannot be ruled out. "After being a housekeeper for so many years, Lei is not a very optimistic character, so at this time, he also took into account some bad situations, "In this way, I will send some people out to find it first, although the probability of finding clues in the current situation is very low, but if you don't do anything, it is even giving up this possibility." ”

The difference between the two, Lei is clear, and Angelo is naturally clear, so it is impossible to object to the other party's idea at the moment: "It is indeed to find, you look at this matter, if there is any news, notify me immediately, and ...... other"

Speaking of this, Angelo suddenly fell silent, and then closed his eyes as if he was struggling.

"Your Highness......"

"By the way, keep an eye on the movements on the other side of the palace." Angelo opened his eyes with obvious tiredness in his eyes, and after Lei heard this, his whole person was immediately stunned, and then tentatively lowered his voice: "Your Highness is suspicious of Your Majesty......"

"Although I don't want to guess that person, the current situation can only make me think this way, after all...... It's not the first time he's done something like this, and it's ......"

Angelo pursed his lips and refused to continue, and Ray knew that no matter how much he said when he saw Angelo, he would only look pale, so it was better to find Dalena's whereabouts as soon as possible.

"Then Your Highness, I'll leave first."

"Let's go......" Angelo only felt very tired now, and he didn't want to say too much, but he kept thinking in his mind: if this matter is really related to that person, if it is really related to that person, then what should he do?
