"Why haven't you come back until now?"

In the bedroom in the villa of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Xue Ya, who was wearing a pink dress and pajamas, sat on the edge of the bed with a little anger, and in front of her stood Hua Long, who had just returned from outside.

"There are some official duties, so ......" Hua Long's lying technique is absolutely top-notch.

But then again, he is not a person who likes to lie, but he can't say that he spent the night at Xingxue's house last night, if he did, what kind of reaction would Xue Ya have? Hua Long didn't want to think about it, and he was a little afraid to think about it.

A brief eye contact!

Under his wife's questioning gaze, Hua Long dodged.

"I'm going to tell me sooner next time, you know? I waited a long time for you last night. Xue Ya said angrily.

"I'm sorry. ”

"Forget it. Xue Ya stood up and smiled instead, "You go take a shower, I'll ask Sasna to prepare breakfast for you." ”

Hua Long nodded, then took off his coat and walked towards the bathroom, but when Hua Long's figure disappeared completely, Xue Ya suddenly turned back, she gently picked up Hua Long's coat and smelled it, and then walked out of the bedroom.

"It must be Jingyi's dead girl, I will never give my husband to you, I must ......"

......

in the bathroom.

Hua Long, who was soaked in warm water, was tired, and his eyelids were as fast as if he was fighting, and even his always clear thinking was now blurred.

Too tired?

Looking at the edge of the bath, Hua Long looked up at the huge circular vault above his head, and around him, a gentle mist rose from the warm water, and the fragrance of flowers in the water was even more dizzying.

"I'm afraid I'm going to fall asleep if I go on like this, right?"

Hua Long didn't want to sleep, because there were many things waiting for him to deal with, waiting for him to make decisions.

Rufis is here, Empress Erica is also here, and the current situation is that the Cold Moon Empire and the Fire Empire are competing for this military purchase, but in terms of price, the Fire Empire still has a great advantage, but fortunately, the person who finally decides who will spend the military purchase is still the rather perverted empress.

I really don't understand why a girl likes to wear a man's dress, why she likes to sleep with girls......

Hua Long suddenly had such a picture in his mind: the empress in pajamas was lying on the soft big bed, and she was still holding Xingxue in the same outfit in her arms......

Unconsciously, Hua Long had a nosebleed.

"What a terrible idea. Splashing his hot cheeks with water, Hua Long breathed a sigh of relief, "If it really becomes like this, he will definitely die in that bed, right?"

According to the previous plan, once he bought that batch of military purchases, it would be better for him to evaporate from the world, so that he would have no worries, Hualong immediately made such a decision.

"My lord, you seem to be tired?"

Without Hua Long noticing, Tarex, a staff member, unexpectedly appeared behind him. His presence and his voice were like a large amount of ice thrown into the water of the bath, causing Hua Long's pores to shrink rapidly.

"Indeed. Hua Long smiled awkwardly.

"The body is the capital of the revolution, and it is best for adults to pay more attention to maintenance, and it is not good for the body to indulge too much. ”

This joke is really bad! But Hua Long couldn't say anything, because the look of the staff didn't look like a joke at all.

"By the way, what's the matter, you have to rush to the bathroom to find me?" When this sentence came out, Hua Long regretted it a little, because there was nothing important, and this nervous staff might come to the bathroom himself?

"It's about Rufis and Empress Erica's itinerary for the day, and ......" the staff stopped.

"And, and what?"

"Across the street from the Green Pavilion, where Rufis lives, a group of unidentified people came. ”

"Unidentified?"

Tarex continued in his peculiar, depressing tone, "These people are supposed to be from the Fire Empire, they have not come out since they entered that house, and the people of the Heaven and Earth Society are currently monitoring them, but these people are very cautious, and it is difficult for us to know more about them. ”

"It must be a killer sent by Duke Nax of the Fire Empire. Hua Long said thoughtfully.

The bathroom fell silent except for the "whoosh" of warm water spurting from the lion sculpture.

"My lord, what are your plans?"

"Me?"

Although Hua Long had expected such a thing, he didn't plan to do anything. Do you turn a blind eye or do you help?

"What do you think?"

"Help Rufis. The staff said.

"Help him? Why?"

"Your Excellency should be aware of the importance of Rufis in the Fire Empire, he controls nearly half of the Fire Empire's army, as well as a large number of die-hard soldiers, if anything happens to him, the result will be ......"

Hua Long didn't even think about it, and a disturbing word became more and more on paper - civil war!

"The end result of a civil war in the Empire of Fire will not be a one-sided slaughter, but a protracted tug-of-war, after all, they don't have Ruphis. This is the worst-case scenario for you. ”

That's right!

If the Fire Empire falls into a civil war, then even the victorious side may not be able to start another war, and the result is likely to be to conclude a peace agreement with their Cold Moon Empire, so that the troubled times they are looking forward to will not come.

Gone?

Then the civilians will be in dire straits again, right? Why do you have such a desire to kill? Why? Do you forget your goal while demanding your rights?

"Troubled times?" muttered Hua Long, who looked hesitant.

The staff saw Hua Long's thoughts, "My lord, do you know the result of the fire?"

"It's destruction, isn't it? Everything was burned down, and there was nothing left. ”

"No!" Tarex replied in an affirmative tone.

“？”

"Only by burning everything can it be reborn, the collapse of one old system will be replaced by another, all changes are based on sacrifice and destruction, if this is not the case, then society will not progress, the common people will only be forever ignorant, and the nobles will squander their lives with a rotten life. Is this what you want to see?"

His words were like a sword cutting through thorns, allowing Hua Long to see the "road" in front of him clearly.

I really want to thank him! Hua Long thought so, but he couldn't say it.

"I see, what do you mean?"

"Don't startle the snake at the moment, let's talk about it depending on the situation. ”

Hua Long nodded and agreed.

If the only way to regenerate is to destroy everything, then let me light this first fire!

......

At noon on a sunny day, the Marshal's Palace.

"You're not kidding, are you?" said Marshal Ron's face wrinkled with anger.

"Really...... It's true...... I was passing by today...... I saw people move in......"

It all started half an hour ago. At noon, when he "got off work", Krazer went home as usual, his villa was not far from the villa of Duke Otto's house, and he usually had no contact with Duke Otto, so he didn't pay attention, only knowing that Duke Otto had recently taken refuge in the marshal, and even Lan Si, who was known as one of the four beauties of the empire, was going to marry the marshal's grandson.

For Krezer, Otto was nothing more than a businessman, and the title of duke was just a gimmick.

But......

He noticed that the closed door of Otto's house had suddenly opened wide in the past few days, and some unidentified people were moving things out from inside. After inquiry, it turned out that Duke Otto had bought the property, and the price was not high, this matter did not attract Kreeser's attention at first, but soon he heard that Duke Otto had sold several other properties in the imperial capital, so far, the matter of Duke Otto's departure from the imperial capital finally surfaced.

"How is this possible, I was having dinner with him a few days ago, and in the blink of an eye he ran away?" Marshal Ron looked incredulous.

"There is a letter from Duke Otto that the nobleman who bought his villa to pass it on to you. ”

Ron snatched it and read it quickly, quickly ......

"This damn thing!" he tore the piece of paper like an angry leopard and roared, "He actually transferred his property to someone else, and then went back to Long Yu to save it, damn it, damn it!"

The departure of Duke Otto was a fatal blow to Marshal Ron financially, so that the only one who could rely on was Duke Winck.

After venting, Ron asked, "Who bought Duke Otto's estate?"

"People from the Filin family, he ......"

"I'm not talking about him, I'm asking, to whom did Duke Otto transfer the property?

"It's a man named Ares. ”

"Ares?" Marshal Ron muttered the unfamiliar name, and countless people flashed in his mind, but ......

For this person, as a marshal of the Empire, he has no impression at all!

As a last resort, Ron continued, "Do you know who he is?"

Kratzer shook his head, indicating that it wasn't clear.

"Ares...... Ares...... Pander to...... Auspicious...... ......Marshal Ron, who was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, suddenly thought of a person under the reminder of a "birdsong", and he turned around and said, "God of War!"

“？”

"In ancient mythology, the name of the god of war is Ares, and among the people active in the Cold Moon Empire, only one guy may be Ares, and that is the mysterious god of war!"

"He, but even if we know that he is an aphid, we don't know his true identity, and besides...... "Although Kreezer has the power of the army, he can't arrest people without evidence, if he is mistaken, it will not be like His Majesty the Emperor will explain at that time."

"I'll figure it out, you go back first. Ron sat down and began his thoughts.

There must be something I have overlooked, since when did I start to ignore it? Who is the crow? What is his connection with the Prime Minister? What is his purpose? A shadow appeared in Field Marshal Ron's mind, sometimes clear, sometimes blurry, making it difficult to fathom.

......
