"What nonsense are you talking about?" The old man's face changed suddenly, a look of panic flashed in his eyes, and then he seemed to think of something again, and said in a deep voice, "Is it that Alyssa told you?" ”

"No, she came to me just hoping that I could testify for her that she had nothing to do with Torres' change of mind, but when I asked her who was the mastermind, she wouldn't say, huh...... But it doesn't matter, not saying that this kind of behavior is an answer in itself. Li Yu said.

"I asked myself who in the castle was worthy of her maintenance, and whose words she had to listen to even if she didn't want to, and it was easy to think of you.

"You are the oldest living person in the Arias family, the other young people in the family are your juniors, Ilea and Blanca are your great-granddaughters and great-grandchildren, Ruth, Elisa, and Torres are also your direct blood relatives, you don't talk much in the family on weekdays, and it is easy to be ignored.

But when you decide to speak, everyone needs to listen respectfully and respect your ideas, even unconditionally to you. Before, in the Marquis's Palace, when you said that Ilea was an Arias, whether it was Vanessa or Dias, they immediately did not dare to continue to make a fuss about this matter.

"I should have thought a little earlier, only you have the ability to set the result before the election starts, you asked Antonio to stabilize Ilea with lies, and wrote to his youngest grandson in the royal capital, forcing him to re-elect Blanca at the last minute.

"Torres is close to Elisa, but he can't disobey your orders, and you even asked everyone to put on a play together to keep Ilea in the dark."

Li Yu's answer was orderly, which also made a chill run in Aona's heart.

When she was in the Marquis's Palace, she had witnessed Li Yu defeat the crowd and finally help Ilea complete almost impossible turnaround, and she was quite jealous of this stranger who sabotaged her plan.

But at that time, she was just a bystander, but now she is finally fortunate enough to go into battle to experience the horror of this guy in person.

Just through the embarrassment that Elisa showed when she came to the door, he was able to find out all the way to the vine, and he was the main messenger behind the scenes, is this guy really just a civilian as he himself said?

Ona is no stranger to those untouchables, who get up early and work in the fields every day in order to fill their stomachs, how can they cultivate such a keen sense of observation and careful thinking.

With their simple interpersonal relationships on weekdays, they can't cope with the intrigue between the nobles at all.

And the foreigner in black clothes in front of her gave her the feeling that she had lived in a similar complex environment for a long time, and she had already been surprised by all this, so she could behave so easily.

At this moment, Ona somehow remembered Antonio that day again.

He was so desperate and frightened when his voice suddenly echoed over the Marquis' Mansion, and now it was Ona's turn to experience it.

Li Yu's voice did not stop, "In fact, with your influence in the family, you can directly express your stance and support Blanca's ascension, even if Ilea is dissatisfied with this, there is nothing she can do, but you choose to go far and far, go around such a big circle, and finally lose your real favorite candidate, it's really ......

"I don't know what to say, I definitely wouldn't do it, so I can only roughly guess what you thought at the time, Ireya was brought up by you since childhood, and you know that your great-granddaughter's heart is very small, and she has always had clear grievances.

"If you and the others stand up for Blanca, she will most likely resent you for it, so you create the illusion that everyone is actually more willing to side with her, so that even if Blanca becomes lord in the end, Ilea will not have any complaints about the family.

"So you can also continue to send her back to the Silvermoon Church according to the plan, if she can grow into the backbone of the church in the future, then when the Arias family needs the help of the Silvermoon Church, Ilea will definitely be willing to pay for the family."

"You don't understand anything!" After the initial horror, the old man finally came back to his senses a little, and said, "Ilea's child's personality is not at all suitable to be a lord, especially at this time. ”

"At a time like this?"

"The Arias family is facing an unprecedented crisis, and we need a mature leader to find allies for us to lead us through this crisis."

"It doesn't matter if Ilea is suitable to be a lord, her brother Blanca is not much better than her." Li Yu said.

"I'm not talking about Blanca, I'm talking about his mother, Vanessa, and whatever you think of her, one thing you have to admit is that she is a woman of great skill, and she also has the courage and excellent means of communication that are not inferior to men."

Now that both sides have spoken, Ona simply no longer conceals it, "Irea was raised by me, of course I love that child very much, if it is usually put in normal times, I don't mind giving her a chance to compete with Blanca fairly, but not now, as a member of the Arias family, the interests of the family should always be put above personal likes and dislikes." ”

"Why not now?" Li Yu asked.

The old man didn't answer again, but asked rhetorically, "Why didn't you tell Ilea that I told Torres to switch to Blanca, since you knew it was me who made Torres switch?" ”

"Well, because of the series of tricks you and Vanessa, you have succeeded in arousing Ilea's distrust of the family members, which is not actually conducive to her rule in the green field, and she is a very emotional person, if I tell her about this. She is likely to break with her kinship completely in a fit of rage. ”

"Isn't that just right, so that you can control her even further."

"I didn't control her, Ilea is in trouble, you people are her relatives and you are not willing to help, she has no other choice but to come to me...... So instead of accusing me of managing too much, it's better to think about how to take some of the pressure off her, instead of making a mess of her and pushing her towards me.

"Whether you like to admit it or not, Ilea is now the master of this land. Since you've kept saying that you want to put your family first, it's almost time to move your ass back from Vanessa and Blanca. Li Yu reminded.

“…………”

Ona fell silent again, and after a while, her attitude finally softened, and she no longer had the aggressive attitude she had before, and she looked like an ordinary old man.

She opened her mouth to clarify, "I haven't been in contact with Vanessa since she escaped, and the matter of the note has nothing to do with me, is the child now entrusting you with an investigation into this matter?" If that's the case, I hope you'll find the person who put the note soon. ”

After finishing speaking, her body shook, and she took the initiative to make way for Li Yu.

"Brother Shen!"

"Hmm!"

Shen Changqing walked on the road, and when he met someone he knew well, he would say hello to each other or nod his head.

But it doesn't matter who it is.

There was no superfluous expression on everyone's face, as if they were very indifferent to everything.

on this.

Shen Changqing is used to it.

Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, it is an institution that maintains the stability of Great Qin, and its main responsibility is to kill demons and monsters, and of course there are some other side jobs.

Arguably.

In the Demon Suppression Division, everyone has a lot of blood on their hands.

When a person is accustomed to seeing life and death, then he will become indifferent to many things.

When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but over time he got used to it.

The Demon Suppression Division is huge.

The people who can stay in the Demon Suppression Division are all powerful masters, or people who have the potential to become masters.

Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.

Among them, the Demon Suppression Division is divided into two professions, one is the town guard and the other is the demon exterminator.

Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Division starts with the lowest level of demon slayer.

Then step by step, he is expected to become a town guard.

Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level of the demon slayer envoys.

Have memories of the predecessor.

He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.

It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of an attic.

Unlike other places full of slaughter, the attic here seems to stand out from the crowd, and in the bloody Demon Suppression Division, it presents a different tranquility.

At this time, the attic door is open, and there are occasional people entering and exiting.

Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment, and then stepped in.

Access to the attic.

The environment has changed in vain.

A burst of ink fragrance mixed with the faint smell of blood came to his face, making his brow furrow instinctively, but quickly stretched.

The smell of blood on everyone's body in the Demon Suppression Division is almost impossible to clean.
