Chapter 8: Temporary Residence (2)

"How is it? Do the two ambassadors think this house is okay?"

At the moment when the attendant officer spoke, Li Mengxi and Hinata Naine were no longer in the palace.

Earlier, Rossbill had met them for the second time with only one purpose, and that was to arrange for their lodging in Yuma. So he sent an exclusive attendant to lead the two people all the way to the residential area lined with mansions, and then chose a two-storey mansion with a courtyard and introduced it to the two.

"The house is indeed a good house. "In the master bedroom on the second floor, the first to respond to the chamberlain was Naine Hinata. She stood by the window and looked out as she spoke. "However, the environment is a bit ...... Why is there no one around?"

"This is because it's not a private residential area. The attendant laughed.

"Ah, what are you doing here?"

"Hostel. Li Mengxi blurted out these two words while waving his hand to remove the parameter interface of the house in front of him.

When the attendant officer heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then nodded admiringly and said, "You are right. It was a temporary residence for the foreign princes who came to meet them. ”

"Is this whole area all here!" Hinata exclaimed incredulously, then carefully surveyed her surroundings again. She was not dazzled, and this area was indeed full of luxury mansions with independent courtyards comparable to here.

"Your Excellency, Ambassador, doesn't know. In fact, we have to do this as a last resort. The attendant may also be aware of the extravagance and waste represented by this scene, so he was a little embarrassed when he explained. "Those princes, no matter how big or small, are second to none in their own territory, and they usually have the best food, clothing, shelter and transportation, and they have developed a habit. How could such a group of people go to a hotel with someone else, or find a piece of supplies to settle for a while? Not only that, but they don't like to live in a house where someone else has lived. In this way, over time, the current residential area has been formed, which can be regarded as a kind of landscape. ”

"Landscape ......" Hinata Nain's voice clearly revealed a kind of fire. As a budget-conscious operator, she probably can't tolerate such senseless waste. However, Li Mengxi interrupted her angry attack in time.

"It's a landscape, but it's really a different flavor. ”

"Well, what do you mean ......"

"Since the Prime Minister respects us as princes, how can I be embarrassed to refute his kindness? ”

"Don't dare! Your Excellency the Ambassador will really hurt me by mentioning my face! My recommendation can only be regarded as adding some color to the goodwill of the Prime Minister. Since you two can take a fancy to it, please accept this key. ”

After the words were closed, the attendant officer walked quickly to Li Mengxi's front and respectfully offered an ancient two-toothed key with both hands. And as Li Mengxi took over the key, a prompt popping up in front of his eyes notifying that he had obtained temporary ownership of the house. This signifies that from this moment on, he has all the system rights of this mansion, and only the person who holds the mother key can be prioritized above him.

"I did take the house here. After putting the sub-key into the prop library, Li Mengxi gave some feedback to the attendant officer. "Are you leaving?"

"yes. I have to hurry to get my life to the Prime Minister. Your Excellency, Ambassador, is there anything else to order?"

"It's not a command. There's just a little personal matter I want to ask you about. ”

"Oh. Then please tell me. If I knew, I would know everything. ”

"Hmm. Li Mengxi nodded with satisfaction. "Marshal Miridrian, you must be a stranger, right?"

"Of course, his name is like thunder, who doesn't know? Even after his defeat, he is still an idol in the hearts of countless empires! But what does the ambassador mean when he asks him?"

"It's about the same as you. Marshal Miridrian was once a great danger to our kingdom, but at the same time he was an adversary worthy of admiration, and it is inevitable that one will want to know more about him. Therefore, I want to know if there are any people in this imperial capital who know him, so I can visit him and ask for advice. ”

"Oh. I see. Well...... "The chamberlain thought for a moment before he came up with an idea, "one of his former generals, Hadlin, lives idly in the city, and may satisfy the curiosity of the ambassador." ”

"Really, who is this General Hadlin?"

"He's a man of bad luck, too. In fact, he was already a general long before Marshal Miridrian joined the army......"

In this way, the attendant who opened the chatterbox explained in detail about the character of Hadrin at the request of Li Mengxi, and naturally included his address in Yuma City. After this matter was finished, he left the mansion accompanied by Li Mengxi and Hinata Nain.

Immediately, at the moment when the main gate closed, Hinata Naine couldn't wait to ask: "Hey! I said what the hell are you planning again?"

"Hehe!" Li Mengxi, who turned around from the gate, couldn't help but smile, "Naiyin, don't you think this thing is weird?"

"What is it?"

"That's what arranged for us to stay here. ”

"What's so strange about that? Of course we need a place to stay here, though we don't need that. With that, Hinata Naon also turned her head and looked at the environment of the house again with prejudice. The so-called hatred of the house and Wu, she hated the extreme waste of the empire, and even she didn't like the house so much.

But Li Mengxi's focus is not on the house itself.

"You might as well put yourself in their shoes. He walked up to Naine Hinata and proposed, "If you are the Prime Minister of Rossbill, and you and I are two people from enemy countries, come to visit. Do you want to keep them in the watchful eye of them, or do you want to set them free?"

"Well...... I think it's the former. Rather, it is said that no normal person would like the enemy to do whatever he wants on his own turf. ”

"Yes, but why did the Prime Minister put us here?"

"It's not a contradiction. Hinata retorted, "At the moment, it's just the two of us, and what seems to be a residential area around us is actually like a wilderness. Isn't that just the right time for them to spy on them?"

Of course he had the plan, but when he thought about it, it was the next best thing. If he wants to keep an eye on us, he can find us a place in the palace and put a team of soldiers to guard it. It was more convenient and effective than letting us out of the walls of the palace and putting it on the market. ”

"Maybe it's because we won't agree. ”

"That's our business, what's the matter with him taking the initiative?"

"Hmm......" Hinata frowned, "Okay! Okay! I know I can't tell you, so if you think of something, just say it!"

"Hehe!" Li Mengxi smiled proudly, "I guess he must not be unwilling but unable to leave us in the palace." We're going to get him in trouble if we stay, so we have to get us out. What does that mean?"

"What?"

"Explanation, my earlier guess was correct. The girl who was kidnapped in the palace today must not be simple. Her identity and the fact that she was taken away would put Rossbill at a disadvantage in negotiations with us, if revealed. That's why he hastily drove us out of the palace. ”

"I see!" Hinata cried out with a slight roll of her eyes, "But what does this have to do with you asking the squire about that Hadlin?"

"What we're going to do now is, of course, to get a hold on to this piece of weakness that Rossbill doesn't want me to grasp. And it's not enough to know the girl's identity, it's better to find her before Rossbill and hold her in our hands. And in this case, I have already seized the opportunity. ”

"This is the case that you know the kidnapper!" "After a little excitement, Hinata was disappointed again, "But we don't know his name, let alone where he's going to go." ”

"Don't worry. That General Hadrin will tell us. The words were closed, and Li Mengxi couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth lightly with confidence.
