"Because Wu Yue is very sincere. Root said. "People who are too prominent are difficult to fit into. At this time, sincere people are especially important. Even if the other party is a child, whether it is you or Natalia, aren't they still wary of him? I think Wu Yue, but I don't have as many thoughts as you. As long as he is a good person, he is willing to make friends with him. That's all. ”

"Is that enough for him?" said Ludmila, curiously.

"The more complex a person is, the more he wants to meet a simple person. Root laughed and continued to drink. "Don't worry, Ludmila. I can assure you. Ming is a usable talent. He will be our center. If I'm not mistaken, I'm willing to join us. It should be that Wu Yue also agreed. ”

"Oh?" said Ludmila, looking at Rute in amazement.

"Wu Yue, Daxter. These two people are a little out of place in this world. Root said. "But everybody has a secret. Then ask if they'd like to join us. Ludmila, go see the women. Having just been liberated from the basement, I guess I'm still scared. You're both women. It would be more convenient to reassure them. Boat I will watch. ”

"Okay. Ludmila turned and stepped into the cabin.

Root stood at the bow of the ship, at the helm. In fact, there are no obstacles in the sky, and it's okay if you don't take the helm. Magadha, the exclusive property of the dark elves, did not sell it to them because he hated Delos. So don't worry about being caught up by them. The sky was safe, but Rout always felt a bit like a captain in doing so. After all, I have always liked the stories of the great voyages.

The weather was so nice.

Root looked at the clear night sky.

I feel like the future is bright, too.

Celestial Yard, Prison.

The princess walked through the corridors of the prison and came to a room at the very end.

"Open the door. Alijie said to the soldier next to her.

"Yes. The soldier immediately opened the door.

When you open the door, you can see that the room is not as simple as other rooms. It's even a little delicate. And in this room, there sat a man in a delicate black robe.

Jurgen.

"Jurgen. Elijie stood in the doorway. Looking at Jurgen, who was sitting on the bed with his eyes closed and seemingly meditating.

Jurgen only came to his senses at this time. After opening his eyes and seeing Ai Lijie standing outside the door, he immediately got off the bed and knelt on the ground and said. "The grass people knock on His Highness. ”

"It doesn't matter. Get up. Alijie said. "Jurgen, you still don't have anything to say about this time, are you willing to stay in prison forever?"

"My daughter did this kind of rebellious thing. Jurgen didn't get up, still kneeling on the ground and bowing his head. "The grass people have no shame to serve you again. Only this big man who imprisons sinners is the safe place for the grass people. ”

Elijah looked at Jurgen and sighed. He said to the soldier beside him. "You go down first. ”

"Yes. The soldier answered and left the prison. In the end, only Elejie and Jurgen were left.

"Marianne is already on death this time. This is irreversible. But Jurgen, you still have a future. You don't have to be willing to leave your official position and stay in prison because your daughter has done something wrong. "The soldier left. Elegen walked into the room and slowly came to Jurgen's face. "Jurgen, you are now willing to give up your great future and go to prison with your guilt. Is it really sad and sad that my daughter has committed treason, or is it because ......"

Alyselle paused and said slowly. "It's because your daughter robbed you of what you did. Makes you worry that your plans will be revealed, so you plan to take refuge in prison. ”

"Your Highness... Grass people—" Jurgen immediately looked up. Just wanted to argue. Alijie held out her hand and stopped Jurgen's conversation.

"You don't have to say grass people. Jurgen, I didn't strip you of your title. You're still an earl. Alijie said. "Just be a minister. ”

"The minister commanded. Jurgen took a deep breath and said slowly. "Your Highness, what you just said, the minister has never thought about it. ”

"Really? We'll talk about that later. Elegy walked past Jurgen, slowly walking in his small but all-encompassing room. "Now the celestial realm is slowly becoming more stable. I no longer have to bury my head in the countless internal affairs of the Heavenly Realm, and behind the indistinguishable external enemies, everything will become clearer and clearer. Jurgen, do you think that Kahlert has suppressed the Celestial Realm so badly before? What are the main reasons. ”

"Because... The Imperial Capital Army was short on supplies and did not have sufficient weapons and ammunition to resist the massive attack by Kahlert. Jurgen thought for a moment and said.

"Then why do you think that the aristocratic private army led by Jackett was able to suppress Andersen in the sea of twilight and make him unable to leave. Anderne, it's a lot tougher than Caller, isn't it?" said Elijie.

"......," Jurgen hesitated, but said slowly. "Because, Jackett is a good leader. ”

"Speak softly and orderly. Don't be too fast, not too slow. Don't flinch or hesitate. Because it will make people feel weak in your heart. If the Superior is afraid, the followers will not be at ease. Elegyt walked back in front of Jurgen. Said with a smile. "Jurgen, this is what you told me when I first became a princess. I was in danger, and my heart was full of fear, but panic. You gave me this advice that is still useful today. But now, you've turned that advice on its head. Jurgen, you don't seem to be following your heart. Are you hiding something?"

Elijie's words made Jurgen's pupils tremble. But then, Jurgen seemed to give up on something, and smiled and breathed a sigh of relief. "Your Highness, although this is a bit disrespectful. But I suddenly feel like you've grown up. "Measure Literature

"Growth is not about age. It's in the heart. Ellie chuckled. "Jurgen, are you willing to tell the truth?"

"Your Highness, it seems that you have already investigated everything. Then I don't need to say it. Jurgen had been kneeling on the ground, but now he looked up at Elie. "Your Highness. Tell me all my charges. I'm willing to accept them one by one. ”

"Jurgen. Of all the things you do, nothing is sinful. Because it's a fact-based decision. Alyselle shook her head. "You spread the doctrine of the uselessness of the army. Military spending and military personnel were cut, resulting in a significant shortage of soldiers and supplies during the Kahlert War. But this is because the army really didn't come in handy, otherwise Kahlert wouldn't have driven straight into my palace and kidnapped me. And there is no electricity, Jackt is not there, and the remaining soldiers are obviously outnumbered by Kalert, but they are completely invincible to Kalert. This also shows that the army is really useless. It's a fact. ”

Then came the impeachment of Jack. Let him have limited power. Unable to fully mobilize troops and weapons. That's right. Jack himself didn't realize that he was actually the kind of person who belonged to the hawks. Once the country is in trouble, he will choose to use the most direct and powerful method to solve the difficulty. That's why he held Andersen back. And kill him. Because since Andersen can come to the heavenly realm for the first time, it is possible for him to come to the heavenly realm a second time. Hidden dangers must not be left behind. He is willing to use any effort to solve the problem. It is dangerous for hawks to have real power in their hands, and your impeachment is based on this fact. ”

"Finally, it's about hollowing out my powers. Although this one is somewhat dangerous for me. At that time, when I think about it now, I really didn't have any value at all. I don't have any experience and no capital. So I can only take Jackett's word and govern a little bit. Although Jackt himself did not do anything excessive, it was dangerous for me to be young and powerless and completely take Jack's words. If you are not careful, Jack, a person who cannot be brought away, will sit on the throne of this true king of the heavenly realm. Because you're still here, you have a family, you have strength, so in the end you become the regent, not Jack. ”

Alijie said all this in one breath.

"Your Highness, what do you mean......" Jurgen couldn't help but ask as she heard Elijie tell her what she had done in secret.

"Jurgen, I'm not worried about what you're doing. On the contrary, I appreciate it. Compared to Marianne's rapid advance, you are slower, and the approach of the anthill collapse is more direct and safe. You have a long-term vision and an impressive boldness. If Marianne had done those rebellions a little later, everything might have turned out differently. Elegy said slowly. "Now that I am here, I still need you to be by my side to assist me. Jurgen. ”

"Your Highness, you already know all that I have done. Why do you want to keep me with you? Your Highness, have you not corrected your benevolent approach after what you have done before?" asked Jurgen in surprise.

"Because I'm still weak. Alijie looked at her hands, then raised her head again, looked at Jurgen and said. "Jurgen, you know. I'm still weak. The Celestial Realm is also weak. All need power to escort it. Jack alone can't do it. He's too tough. I need another soft person to reconcile him. ”

"Because... Arad... Is it?" Jurgen said the answer that had been looming in his heart.

"The world is different now. I said it in my speech. The Celestial Realm now has new enemies and new friends. It's just that this friend and friend are sometimes one. Ellie sighed. "Because of the war in the Heavenly Realm, the national strength is already quite weak. And because of Ming's plan, we owe a great favor to the Belmar Kingdom of Arad. We can't say no to their requests. The current Queen Skadi is also a wise king, and she has not opened her mouth to us lions. There is no guarantee of the future. There are always all kinds of gossip about women in power. It's a common thing when she's pushed down. If, at that time, the second King of Belmar had made even more excessive demands on us with this favor, we would have been able to resist. Or in the future, Queen Skady will change her fortune, and we will not have the initiative. So I'm going to take advantage of the fact that now, while the queen is still carrying out a more moderate policy, to bring our country and theirs back to equal status. I can't do it alone, and neither can Jack. I need someone else to help me too. ”

"The country's difficulties are not limited to these. It's a question that takes some time, but it doesn't have to be me. Something else, right?" Jurgen said again.

"Yes. Elegy said slowly. "The Kingdom of Belmar is now in talks with us about learning from each other. We can't learn magic, but they can learn technology. As the exchanges between the two countries continue to deepen, they may learn all kinds of science and technology in the future. And these technologies will slowly flow to the entire Arad region. With our current level of advanced technology, it is difficult to guarantee a lead time. And, there's Delos. This country of wolf ambitions. As soon as they came to the Heavenly Realm, they helped the nobles to rebel. In the future, if they have the opportunity, they will definitely annex the entire Arad continent. At that time, the Celestial Realm must have been one of them. Although the civilization of the wizarding world is inferior to mechanical technology, they have the strength of their own to defeat a hundred. And I also heard that the Delos Empire has been secretly studying inhuman experiments. They are also gathering strength. The hidden danger Delos in the shadows, the hidden danger Belmar in the open ground. The Celestial Realm is now facing a fate that is even more dangerous than that of Callert and Andersen. A crisis in which the Celestial Realm could be annexed at any moment. ”

"Your Highness. Minister... He is also a rebel and a thief. ”

"I know. But you are also a citizen of the heavenly realm. Under internal and external troubles, there is only one thing you can do. And that thing is by no means sitting on the sidelines. ”

Jurgen felt trembling all over. But not fear. It's excitement.

"Your Highness, the minister is guilty. There is a capital offense. ”

"I know. ”

"But such a criminal minister, Your Highness, you still stoop to come. There is nothing to reciprocate. Jurgen stood up. "Your Highness. The retainers are willing to accept their sins. This capital crime, let the minister donate his life instead. Once again, Your Highness, let your submissions serve your left and right. As Your Highness said, under the country's internal and external troubles, there is only one thing the minister can do. That is to serve the country. Because the ministers are the people of the heavenly realm, and they are the people raised by the soil of the heavenly realm. ”

"Good. Alyselle walked out of the room. "Let's go. Jurgen. You've been in jail long enough. It's enough to prove your innocence to others. ”

"Yes!" Jurgen followed after Elijie. He trembled with excitement. He saw that a king was slowly being born. The priestess who had no opinions, no vision, and could only let things unfold is now gradually embarking on the path of a king. She's growing. That's right, she's still young. Because of this, she has a promising future. There is no need for her own people to lead the Heavenly Realm in her place, and she will become a great king.

There is no need to resort to any outside forces. Your Highness, now you are the last hope of this celestial realm. This time, I would like to fulfill the identity of a loyal servant, and I will be by your side until I die, and I will protect your country by your side.

"Jurgen. Ai Lijie, who was walking in front, said suddenly.

"Yes. Your Highness. What's the matter with you. Jurgen hurriedly asked.

"Marianne's affair is a foregone conclusion. If you want to complain, I will not blame. But I only hope that what you have done can be done after everything is stable in the country. Elegy said slowly.

"It's okay, Your Highness. Marianne, she's gone astray. Jurgen smiled sadly. If she stays, she'll just repeat the same mistakes. The heavenly realm is in chaos, and it can't be any more. I have no complaints about this. Thank you, Your Highness, for your willingness to keep my son. ”

"Are you going to see her?"

"Yes. Let the ministers, and finally fulfill the responsibilities of a father. Jurgen bowed slightly behind him.

"There you go. Elijah turned her head and looked at Jurgen. "But after that, I want you to return to the palace. ”

"Your Highness, please rest assured. The minister still has a mission. Won't give up. Jurgen straightened up and said earnestly.

"Hmm. Alijie nodded slightly. Got out of here.

Jurgen sighed as she looked in the direction Eligent had left. Walk to the room where his daughter is. After all, in prison, he didn't lose his position. There is still the power and intelligence that should be there.
