Chapter Seventy-Seven: Busy Elizabeth
On the way back to Alfred's Castle, Augustus asked Terina if she really helped Donald's heir find the key to get out of the magic labyrinth, and Teryna threw him a disdainful look at an idiot, saying that since his heir was lost because he was addicted to magic array skills, then all she could do was to present him with the relevant superficial knowledge system of magic arrays, and whether he could get out of it was not up to others to decide, and others here included God. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Augustus was stunned, and before he could speak, Terina revealed a deep meaning that did not match her age at all, and sighed, that little guy is a little stupid, but taking such a detour is of great benefit to his magical attainments, once he gets out of the magic cage, the future will be bright, at least more like a magician than the so-called magicians in Donald's castle who only know how to chant spells.
Automatically filtered Terina's Augustus, who was complaining about the current continent magicians, instantly grasped the bright prospect and asked, Is it possible to become a magician?
Queen Terina, who claims to be afraid of stupidity without fear of anything, suddenly became irritable, do you think the magician is the weed in your castle garden?
Augustus, who felt that this sentence was somewhat familiar, smiled awkwardly and asked no more questions.
But the irascible Terina a moment ago suddenly became weak, Augustus, I'm so sleepy.
From the queen to Lori, there was no room for a turn, and Augustus, who couldn't adapt to it, was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that Terina had said that her soul was already in a weak stage, and she had to divide a part of her soul to suppress another soul in her body, which made him vaguely understand why Terina's face was extremely pale after extracting his soul, plus she had spent a lot of mental power to build a magic array for Donald's heir in the past few days, she must be very weak now.
Augustus, who must have known the real reason why Queen Terrina was willing to help Donald's heir, had a gentle look in his eyes.
He looked at the cot at the back of the carriage, and the meaning was obvious.
But little Lori opened her immature arms, coquettish, and wanted to sleep with her arms.
Augustus had a headache, but he still opened his arms the same, and waited for little Lori to jump on his lap with a happy face, and then rubbed his leg again, his expression was still stiff and unnatural, and then he said softly: "Sleep." ā
Little Lori nodded, muttered a pity that no one read to her, and then quickly fell asleep in the bumpy carriage.
Like a carefree child.
......
The carriage arrived at Alfred's Castle, passing through Greentown, Augustus should have discussed with Baron Marshall of Greentown about the next digging of the Nile, but he did not stop, the reason is not complicated, since he chose the dictatorship of the territory, then such an important matter of course requires the town lords to rush to his castle to obey the orders, and there will be no so-called consultation; What he wants to do is to completely overthrow this pyramidal family structure, completely take back all decision-making power in his territory, and structure the dictatorship with Alfred as the absolute core.
It can be said that this is simply Augustus blatantly changing the aristocratic structure of the Holy Empire that has lasted for nearly a thousand years, and it will also add an unimaginably huge workload for Alfred, after all, dictatorship means that everything in the size of each territory needs to be approved by Alfred, including money, laws, defense, and so on.
It seems that this is indeed Augustus asking for trouble for himself?
But he didn't have a choice, he had to take such a strong hand if he wanted to put Alfred on the path of rapid development in the shortest possible time.
The carriage stopped on the grass in front of the castle, and no one greeted his return except for the servants, which made Augustus feel a little puzzled, and he first glanced in the direction of the castle study, and then carefully carried the sleeping Terina back to the room, and then gently put Terina on the bed, seeing that the latter was still frowning slightly and showed no signs of waking up, he quietly left the room and walked straight to the study.
In the study, Elizabeth, buried in the pile of papers, apparently looked up when Augustus pushed the door, and she saw Augustus stunned at first, then a big smile.
Augustus, who clearly captured the change in Elizabeth's expression, sighed softly, and finally understood why Elizabeth did not appear in front of the castle to greet him, it seemed that she was so busy that she had forgotten the date of his return, and even when he arrived at the castle, Elizabeth did not know at all.
Augustus apologized and wanted to speak, but the smart Elizabeth wouldn't give him a chance to speak at all, as soon as he walked to the desk, Elizabeth took out a stack of documents in front of him, handed them to Augustus, and said with a smile: "In addition to the things you left before you left, even the batch of supplies that arrived the day before yesterday and Sophia and I have arranged it, conservatively estimated, counting all our current supplies and food, it will be no problem to last at least 10 days." After a pause, seeing that Augustus was about to interject, Elizabeth said: "There is also the issue of the civilians who have migrated, and they have been transferred to Grimm Town and Dehe City according to your wishes, but brother, I know your arrangements over there in Grimm Town, but what about Dehe City? Why does Dehe City need such civilians?"
Augustus smiled hard, and finally remembered that when he didn't wake up, it was the 15-year-old girl in front of him who carried Alfred alone.
So to deal with all these trivial matters in a short period of time, Augustus will not be surprised, Elizabeth does have this ability, but after he woke up, Elizabeth deliberately downplayed her ability in these aspects, until Augustus left and needed her to do these things, this girl will show her strong ability and courage.
"There's a mine over there in Dehe. ā
Augustus, who had not mentioned to Elizabeth the secret agreement between him and the Bishop of the Mass, had just begun to make a start, and Elizabeth narrowed her crescent-like eyes and quickly said, "It seems that what Sophia told me is true?
Augustus hesitated, then shook his head, as if to change the subject, and tried to smile: "Speaking of Sophia, what about her? I remember when I left, I asked you to deal with these things together, this proud little princess of Constantine shouldn't have been keeping you busy alone in the study all the time, right?"
"Why, Sophia only went back to rest early in the morning. As soon as she finished speaking, Elizabeth stuck out her little tongue cutely and said no more.
She knew that she had leaked her mouth, and she also realized that she was basically saying that she and Sophia had been busy all night, and in the morning Sophia went back to rest, and she had been busy until now.
Augustus frowned.
Elizabeth, who was very smart, hurriedly pushed away the cumbersome documents in her hand, still not giving Augustus a chance to show his negative emotions, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll go and rest, you can read these materials again." ā
In the end, Augustus, who couldn't bear to blame Elizabeth, shook his head with a wry smile, did not speak, bent sideways and stretched out his hand, signaling Elizabeth to hurry up and rest.
Elizabeth smiled and walked past Augustus and toward the door of the study.
Then she opened the wooden door of the study, and just as Augustus was about to pull out his chair at the same time, Elizabeth, who had stopped at the door of the study, suddenly said: "By the way, Augustus, since what Sophia said about the gold mine really exists, then what you said to the Bishop of Mass at that time should also be true, right? Don't deny or forget, it's the whole gold mine just for me to live." ā
Augustus was silent.
Elizabeth, who did not look back, still smiled, and she said: "Augustus, you must be glad that your deal was not accepted by the Bishop of Mass, otherwise you think about it, my father is gone, if even you die, how can I live, and why should I live? So, you were so stupid at that time, how could you have such a ridiculous idea." ā
"Augustus, no matter what happens in the future, don't think like that again, I'll be unhappy. ā
