Chapter 67: Big Brother

Christina and Millscom walked one after the other on the stone path, and the palace complex at night seemed to be a secluded jungle, and the two were in different moods.

Christina has a dignified demeanor and a noble temperament that cannot be blasphemed. Millscom was like a loyal dog, his eyes fiery with him. Although he was old enough to be Christina's father, he couldn't resist the charm of the young queen, and secretly swore to protect her after countless stares.

Neither of them said a word, only the sound of footsteps at the same frequency on the road they walked.

Until you arrive outside the door of the Queen's bedchamber.

Christina stopped, she didn't look back, and asked, "You told me last time...... His Majesty has murderous intentions towards the Acting Governor of the Falling Star. This time, he held a coming-of-age ball for Princess Dale, is he ready to do it? ”

Milskum immediately saluted and replied, "Your Majesty still needs to make a deeper assessment of the Acting Governor of the Falling Star, and if it is determined that he will endanger the foundation of the Empire, even if killing him will cause a great crisis, Your Majesty will get rid of him." ”

Christina didn't respond immediately, she was silent for a while before she said, "Your Majesty is old, his mind is far less clear than before, and he will even do some extreme and stupid things. He doesn't even believe in his own son and daughter, so he naturally maliciously speculates about everyone.

Meteor has a very healthy relationship with all parties in the court, and his ability to reconcile conflicts is the cornerstone of the empire's stability. The city of Angry Waves is the Empire's window to the world, and the wealth it creates and drives the economic effect is the Empire's reliance on dealing with various crises.

The loss of the Meteorite is a price that the Empire cannot afford! And the loyalty of the Meteorite to the Empire, there is no doubt about it!

If His Majesty is foolish and wants to kill the Meteor, the royal knights and palace guards will protect him and return to Fury Waves safely. ”

Without hesitation, Millscom replied, "Yes, Your Highness." I will keep an eye on His Majesty's health, and I will arrange for someone to protect the Acting Governor of the Meteor. ”

"Thank you, Millscombe, for the Empire."

Christina never looked back at Millscom, and she walked up the steps of the dormitory and into the open palace gates.

Millscom stood and watched Christina's back until she disappeared through the closed door, then turned away with a huff in her mind.

Returning to the dormitory, Christina walked through the empty cloister, magic lamps lit up one by one as she approached. She liked silence and solitude, so there were not many servants here, and all of them went back to their rooms to rest under her orders.

Christina pushed the door open and entered a room that was not her bedroom, but a study. She walked over to her desk and sat down, waving the lamp on the table.

On the table there was pen and paper and some books that had not yet been read, and a thick book of "Collection of Emperors of the Empire" was sandwiched in the middle, and the paper was densely packed with reading notes.

Instead of picking up the unfinished book, Christina relayed a piece of paper and picked up a pen to write.

All she wrote were documents she had just read for Augustine the Great, as well as instructions from the Emperor. Her super memory allows her to remember every word she reads, and even a single punctuation mark will not be wrong.

I don't know how long it took for Christina to complete all the copies, the thick sheet of paper representing how many events would happen in an empire every day, and a good emperor had to respond to everything as quickly as possible.

Cristina sorted and bound the copied documents, and then carefully studied them one by one according to their importance, and she put herself in the position of Augustine the Great, considering the reason for any of his instructions and what they wanted to achieve.

This was Christina's court life.

After the death of the former empress, Augustine the Great's mood and body took a rapid turn for the worse. Although he married Christina for political reasons, his health did not allow him to come here.

Therefore, Christina has a prominent status, but she is also a canary trapped in the palace. She could only pass the boring time of the day by reading a lot, and then found herself with an addictive interest in some areas.

She likes to read the cultural customs of various parts of the empire, likes to read the personal biographies of imperial ministers, and likes to imagine what decisions she would make if she was in that position.

Interest makes life go by very quickly, and it also changes Christina's mood little by little.

She notices that Millscom has a crush on her, and turns that liking into a crush. She doesn't have to give anything, she just needs to let Millscom see it often and not get it, and you'll fall unconsciously.

So Christina knew a lot of things that she didn't know before, how fierce the struggle was at court, and what the purpose of Augustine the Great was for holding a coming-of-age ball for Princess Dale.

The most trusted person of the Emperor became the eyes and ears of the Empress, and could even disobey the Emperor's orders.

Luke knows what the real Queen Christina looks like.

In the Empire Collapse plot of the Anno Games, after the death of Augustine the Great, the Grand Prince led his troops to storm the palace. He thought he could ascend the throne smoothly, but he didn't expect that the royal knights and palace guards all joined the queen.

Therefore, Luke knows very well that in the palace, it is not the emperor who wants to die, but the empress Christina who wants to save will definitely be able to save him.

Angry Waves' comprehensive investment in the kingdom of Lusion, in addition to making money and future economic colonization, is also Luke's insurance for himself.

That's why Luke is alone in his bedroom.

The royal knights and palace guards patrolling outside the window are now their own people.

Luke and Agatha drank bottles of wine, talking about military rations, about the economic development of Fury Waves, about the civil war in the Republic of Leo, about the war in the Tedgar hills, and about the potential crisis in the north.

Abyssal Temple, Brotherhood of Blades, Order of the Cross, Society of Innovation, Cabinet, Court......

Neither of them deliberately alleviated the effects of alcohol on the brain, and talked about a lot of things that they couldn't usually talk about in a slightly drunk state.

Agatha drank another glass of wine, the stimulation of the alcohol made her skin flush, and her eyes were a little misty: "I found that there was a natural tacit understanding between us. When you are still in the Cape District, this tacit understanding exists. Although you have caused me countless troubles, the trust between us has grown stronger and stronger.

I believe that you can bring new vitality to this decaying empire and make it a happy life for all its subjects. ”

Luke laughed and said, "Let everyone live happily ever after?" You think too highly of me! I just wanted to make my life a little more comfortable, but I don't know how to ...... Step by step, it became like this.

I'm actually adventurous, and there are many places in the world that I haven't been to before. If it weren't for so many responsibilities on my shoulders, I would have liked to board a boat and go to sea and find a random place to land. ”

Luke is an adventurer in the Anno Games, traveling around the world to experience different secrets and dungeons. Hardly participate in the drama of the ruling strata of such countries, leaving them to push themselves.

Therefore, Luke has no intersection with the Golden Shield Empire's court in the game, and some of them are materials compiled by other players in the mobile phone database.

Agatha looked at Luke, and the smile on her face was a little meaningful: "Dale is also very eager for adventure, maybe one day you will put aside everything you have now and explore the vast unknown world."

Don't snub Dale tomorrow...... Tell her stories of your previous adventures and she will forgive you.

It's too late, you can rest...... I'll go back and rest too, good night! ”

"Good night, Your Highness the Eldest Princess."

"Be careful! It's my people outside the door, and if there's danger, rush outside. ”

"Thank you, Your Highness, I'll be careful!"

Agatha left Luke's room, the windowsill filled with empty bottles. Luke lay on the big soft bed, and the strength of the wine and sleepiness quickly brought him into his dreams.

Incense brings a good night's sleep and wakes up the next day feeling refreshed.

Luke, who was dressed up, was going to go to Dale, although he really didn't know that Dale was waiting for him yesterday, but in this case, of course, he went to apologize first and make things clear.

But as soon as Luke went out, he saw MacDonald waiting outside.

"Your Highness, what are you doing here?"

MacDonald, who had been waiting a little uneasily, immediately had a smile on his face when he saw Luke. Regardless of his identity, he saluted Luke first, and then said eagerly: "Your Excellency, I asked a lot of people yesterday to find out that you are so rich. No wonder you invested so much money in us without blinking an eye, like throwing a pebble into a pond.

It turns out that that money is really a pebble to you.

Christina Sister ...... Her Royal Highness asked me to study with you, and during this time in the Empire, I followed you.

You will be my big brother from now on! ”

Yesterday's conversation was just too hard for MacDonald. Although the kingdom of Lusien is not rich, as a prince, he has still seen money, and some people don't believe that the meteorite can invest so much money in the kingdom of Lusien with his mouth open.

It's not that I haven't been to Angry Waves City, no matter how rich it is, it is a city, can it be compared with a country?

So MacDonald inquired after the prom.

Outcome......

The amount of taxes paid to the empire in a quarter is more than the entire wealth of the kingdom of Ruthon in a year.

Macdonald knew that the kingdom of Lusan was poor, but he didn't expect it to be so poor, and the prince status that he was proud of was instantly boring.

Now that there was an opportunity for a sugar daddy, MacDonald thought about it overnight and made a bold decision. Then as soon as it was dawn, he came early to block the meteorite.

Isn't it just to be a little brother?

The kingdom of Russen has always been a little brother to others!

And Luke never expected that you MacDonald is also a prince of a kingdom, and your sister is the queen of the empire, and she worships herself as a big brother in this public.

You're too casual, little brother.

And...... What about generation?

MacDonald and Augustine the Great were equals.

Luke immediately said: "Your Royal Highness, you follow me to study, I will definitely teach you with my heart." This big brother is not worshiped casually. ”

Who thought that MacDonald was determined to be a little brother: "Big brother, please rest assured, this is a decision I made after a night of careful consideration."

My father said that our ancestors of Lu Sien worshiped the Golden Shield Empire as the suzerainty early to keep the country, and only by following the strong in time can we keep our jobs.

I am the youngest prince of the kingdom of Lusen, and I have no destiny to inherit the throne, but I have a heart to be the richest prince.

I'm sure my big brother will definitely be able to help me make this wish come true. ”

I have to admit that although the family motto of the royal family of Lusian is very cheap, it is absolutely practical.

It's no wonder that Big Brother MacDonnell is so silky and almost not psychologically burdened.

It seems that Sinclair's rank has to be upgraded again.

Thinking of Sinclair, Luke saw his back as he left in a hurry. I thought that he also came to himself, but after listening to MacDonald's words, he couldn't accept the blow of reality.

The relationship between this royal family is too messy!

"Well, since you sincerely recognize me as a big brother, I will reluctantly recognize you as a younger brother. In the future, the eldest brother will take you hand in hand to make money, and it is guaranteed that you will become the richest prince in the world. ”

MacDonald said happily, "Thank you, big brother." When I became the richest prince in the kingdom of Ruthen, I was satisfied. ”

"To be the richest prince in a kingdom, isn't that a slap in the face for me, a big brother? Must be the richest prince in the world! ”

MacDonald was still very conservative and said, "I have set a small goal, the richest in the kingdom!" ”

"This can be had! Let's go, I'll take you to meet some people now...... The future is the age of secret arts, and they hold the wealth code of the future. ”

"Yes, Big Brother Meteor."

Luke takes MacDonald to the residence of the Mystic Department students. Even if Daile wasn't there at this time, the students there knew how to find her.

Because of Dale's special relationship, the students of the Secret Arts Department were arranged to live in the same building. While Luke and MacDonald brought in, Jefferney was lining up the students for roll call. This is the palace, and she has to keep an eye on these energetic and mischievous students.

Dale lined up with the students and listened to Jenvernie's plan for today's activities.

Today is the continuation of the celebration, and the palace will organize the children of nobles from all over the world to visit the Imperial History Museum, where they will experience the glory and power of the empire and tell the elders of their families what they see.

The war against the Tedgar Hills continues to this day, and there are still many noble lords who have not taken a stand, and the empire does not want to add more enemies.

Luke tells MacDonald to go to the museum with the occult students, and stops Dale himself.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know you were waiting for me to invite you to do another dance yesterday. I was ...... with Her Royal Highness the Queen."

Dai Er said coldly, "I didn't wait for you. You're a terrible dance partner that made me twist my foot, so I sat until the end of the prom. ”

"So that's ......" Luke suddenly realized: "The eldest princess said that you were waiting for me to invite you to a second dance, which made me feel guilty, and now ......

I'm still guilty!

I'm sorry, but I'm a beginner who does have a terrible jump. Are your feet better? ”

Dale looked at Luke, her face softened a little: "Are these what Sister Agatha said?" What else did she say to you? ”

"We also talked about the crisis facing an empire. There is a war in the South, bandits in the West, and there may be invasion in the North. The Empire will be very difficult in the next few years, and Raging Waves must be prepared for all kinds of crises and support all the battlefields at any time......"

Daile exhaled softly as she listened, and showed some guilt, she said softly, "You still have to worry about the affairs of the empire so late, and I ......

Come with me, I want to hear what kind of things the country is facing. ”

Luke asked with some concern, "Are your feet alright?" ”

Daile smiled playfully: "It's already good just now." ”
