The morning sun is still peeking out from the edge of the desert.

Early in the morning, a large crowd gathered outside the walls of the palace......

"What's going on?"

"Don't you know, last night the royal palace was attacked by the Wolf God Cult, and the chieftain and the royal family all suffered, only Princess Kajimi survived, and a large number of soldiers were sacrificed, including those from the Asta Empire who came yesterday. "People are starting to communicate with each other.

Time.

Rumors continued to spread throughout the city, and even theft and vandalism began to occur in the city, as seems to happen whenever there is a change in the ruler of a region.

The large number of evil ** things made General Al Yif unskilled, and his soldiers could no longer cope with it, but fortunately, the desert is different from other places, every inch of land suitable for survival here is extremely precious to the people, even if Siwa City becomes something, no one chooses to leave, there is no more suitable place to live in this area than in the city.

With the help of the expeditionary force, after a few more days, the events in the city were finally calmed down.

In the palace, where the chief used to belong, Kajimi was now sitting in the center, no longer wearing the sexy and charming dress of the princess, but a simple and elegant dress, with a slit dress and a golden gold ribbon tied around the exposed legs.

The hair was also neatly combed and hung down, without a crown, but with a crown woven of gold leaves.

A new governor is reporting to her on the situation in the city.

"Chief, almost all the incidents have been suppressed by General Ayeve, and the losses received by the people have been counted, including hundreds of casualties, but fortunately there has not been a tragic death of an entire family. ”

The new governor was also a woman, looking to be in her thirties, tall and with a calm expression, and at first glance she was a very capable person.

Kajimi took a large roll of vellum from the other hand.

"Then all the people who have been injured in this unrest will be allocated some pensions, and there will be a place for the royal palace. Kajimi took a closer look, although the casualties were only a few hundred, but there were really a lot of families affected, probably thousands.

"But chief, our guards have also suffered great losses, and the comfort money of the military headquarters is also a large expense...... The cost of the military department should be a priority, not to mention the funerals of the old chiefs and members of the royal family. ”

At present, the person who really has real power in Siwa City except for Kajimi is General Al Yif, if he does not deal with the affairs of the military department, it is likely to be a curse, and the female governor just kindly reminded her, as for whether she can understand it depends on the wisdom of Princess Kajimi.

About the funeral of a member of the royal family.

The hierarchy in the desert country has existed since ancient times, and some specific ceremonies are much stricter than those in the eastern kingdoms, and the funerals of royal family members are to be grandiose.

"I have discussed this matter with General Ayeve, in order to avoid the attack of the Wolf God Cult at one point, this time the royal palace funeral will only be held separately in the royal mausoleum, and the scale will not be too expensive. Kajimi said.

In extraordinary times, slight changes are normal, and now Kajimi is the chieftain as long as she wants.

But......

The female governor thought for a moment.

"Even if it was a lot of savings, but Chief, it's almost spring. ”

Huh?Kajimi looked at each other curiously.

In spring, in the desert, there are only two gatherings: the rainy season and the wind season.

"I mean, spring in the Asta Empire is coming, and it's a time of year when we're going to make offerings to the Empire. "It's been going on for years.

Forget about this matter, as a vassal state of the Asta Empire, it has to provide nearly a quarter of the income to the imperial capital every year.

I didn't think it was like anything in previous years, but I just encountered this time.

Kajimi frowned, looking at the female governor with wide, watery eyes.

"Why are there so many!"

The other party spread out his hand with an expression that he couldn't help himself, as if to say: It's always been so much.

I really don't know that firewood and rice are expensive, and now every penny is life-saving money for Siwa.

"When I get to the imperial capital, I must ask the king, even if it is increased to the next year, if this money is added this year, Siwa will not survive the next dry season. She looked at the Female Governor, and the people of the desert knew the desert best.

There are no other specialties here, and there is no way to exploit all kinds of natural resources to the resource-rich countries of the Eastern Kingdom, and the annual gold production of some unique medicinal herbs and food is all the income of the desert country.

"Well, we'll wait for your good news Chief. The Governor took a step back and bowed deeply to Kajimi.

A chief who can think about the people of the desert should be loved by the people of the desert.

"From tomorrow onwards, in addition to the necessary expenses, the palace will be the first to be economical, and those ...... Dispose of the expensive decorations, and replace them with more food and water. "Thinking of how many gold carvings there are in the palace, many of them are useless, they used to be used by my father to show their identity, and now that I am disposed of at this juncture, my father should not blame me.

Kajimi thought to himself.

"I'll take care of the chieftain. ”

After obtaining the consent of the female governor, Kajimi was relieved to leave what was now his palace.

Behind the Chief's Palace is the garden, which is also a place full of ornate gold decorations.

Most of the soldiers and expeditionary force went out to maintain order in the city, but instead gave students such as Lias and Lucia, who were not regular soldiers, free time.

"Lias!"

Far away, Kajimi saw them.

"Princess Kajimi. Lucia on the side also looked over, and the two of them had been bored in the garden all morning.

"It's still called Princess, but now I'm going to be a chieftain. ”

Seeing Kajimi running over, Lias couldn't help but joke that the relationship between the three has always been not bad, especially at the beginning, the impression was very good, although it was unpleasant to enter that night, but in the end Kajimi didn't know, and her family members were dead, so how could she blame her.

Although the two have not been assigned tasks in the past few days, they have always volunteered to stay in the palace to accompany Kajimi.

"Well, even you have to tease me. Kajimi pouted his nose and looked displeased.

"By the way, where is Cam, where is Cam?" he looked left and right at Lias's body and didn't see the little squirrel-like one, since seeing Cam's abilities, Kajimi has become more and more interested in the little one.

As long as Lias was around, she was going to see Cam.

Shhhh

Lias made a quiet gesture and gently took out a sleeping squirrel from the mouth of the clothes in her arms.

"Why is it still sleeping? ”

"Hmm...... It's always been like this, I'm used to it. "There's nothing Lias can do about Cam's lazy sleep, she spends almost half of the day sleeping.
