Chapter 207: The Most Typical Noble Lady
Late at night, Catalina, Royal Palace.
King Lai Yin took the report handed by Count Blazer, and was a little surprised.
"If I'm not mistaken, this task must have been entrusted to your son, the little Mr. Blazer, right? Did you get rid of one so quickly? β
"I've always had high hopes for him, and he's never lived up to my expectations." Count Blazer's reply was accompanied by a rare hint of pride.
Bowing slightly, King Lai Yin smiled: "Then I want to see how he did it." β
Flipping through the report, he scrutinized every detail on it.
As his gaze swept over the words, King Laiyin's smile gradually retracted.
"Cole." His tone was a little uncomfortable, "Don't you think he's gone too far?" β
"Driving commoners to kill nobles is not a commendable thing."
In this country, the royal family is actually the largest aristocracy, and King Lai Yin will not be excited by the people's resistance, but has a feeling of being transgressed.
"I think so too." Count Blazer sighed deeply, hung his head, and said, "I'm to blame for all this. β
"In the education I have given him, I have always solved the root cause of the problem in the fastest, most accurate, and most ruthless way, and he has obviously been influenced by me in doing so."
"Oh?" King Lai Yin squinted slightly, "I can see that I am quick and ruthless, but this does not seem to solve the root problem, right?" β
"At least for the time being." "The nobles, who are intoxicated with peace," said the Earl of Blazer, would not have imagined that we would strike so quickly, and execute in such a way that a man who was ready to rebel would be so swift as a result of this. β
"It seems, there is some truth." King Lai Yin nodded slightly.
Not to mention the aristocracy, even he didn't expect that little guy to have such courage and means.
No verbal threat is as powerful as a bloody shock.
After paying the price of a life, the other guys who are ready to make a move will definitely be more or less restrained - at least until the outcome of this matter is known.
"Then how do you think we should give an account to the nobles?" King Lai Yin squinted his eyes and said, "Can you exchange the lives of those three towns for their temporary 'understanding'?" β
"Yes, but you won't." Count Blazer said briefly.
"yes." King Laiyin sighed, "History tells me that in the face of the upcoming rebellion, submission is tantamount to slow death, and at this time, I must be tough. β
"None of the people in these three towns can die."
He sat back down at his desk, his hands crossed, his eyes glowing with a dim light.
"If I'm not mistaken, that territory isn't far from Marienburg."
"Let Marienburg divide its men to take over those three towns, and no 'outsiders' will be allowed to intervene."
"Yes."
"If they have an opinion, let them go to Mathurin, I think, he will use what he does best to solve them."
Both Android and Apple are available. γ
"Yes."
"And ......."
After explaining all kinds of matters, King Lai Yin breathed a sigh of relief.
He raised his eyes slightly and asked, "Since the first one has been solved, then next, where did you choose the target?" β
"Setland." Count Blazer replied.
Settleland City, among the provinces of Ningarom, is definitely not a small city.
Its location advantage near the border can well assume the function of a trade node between Laiyin and the Blue Lands.
However, it is not enough to say that it is prosperous.
For the large profits of the trade they received were not equally distributed among the people, but went into the pockets of the lord here, the Marquis of TraorΓ©.
"It's him." King Lai Yin thought thoughtfully, "This time, it shouldn't be so easy to solve." β
"Yes." "But because of the former thing," said the Count of Blazer, "we have much more time. β
"Looks like that little guy is quite a visionary." King Lai Yin smiled, and suddenly remembered something, and the words changed, "That's right." β
"Christine, it looks like someone was sent there too."
"Duke Christine?" Count Blazer was slightly stunned, "They also want to be involved?" β
"As far as I know, it's trying to stop it." "Traore is one of Christine's cronies, and Christine is very aware of the energy of the kingdom, and they know that the other party's rebellion is basically a dead end, so they want to do their best to prevent themselves from losing a wing." β
"Is that so......."
"If they succeed, they will be missing you."
After a pause, King Lai Yin yawned.
Looking at the time, it was already late, so he chose to terminate the conversation with Count Blazer.
"Alright, that's almost all for today, you can go back."
Count Blazer bowed slightly, ready to retire.
But just as he was about to leave, King Laiyin called out to him again.
"That's right." He said, "Since Mr. Blazer Jr. has done such a good job, should I give him some reward?" β
Count Blazer bowed and said, "This is what he should do. β
"No, no, no, one yard is one yard, and if you do it well, you have to give a reward."
"Let me think, what should I give?"
"Gold? It seems like none of you Blazer like this; Weapons? I remember that your creed seemed to be the best weapon in itself. β
"So, what else?"
Twisting his beard, King Lai Yin squinted his eyes and smiled very slyly.
.......
At the hotel in Setland, Lynn looked at the letter from her father in front of her and fell into deep thought.
"Christine?"
Faced with this surname, the first thing he thought of was the golden gorilla and his sister.
Other than that, he doesn't know much about it.
Lynn Mo held the letter and looked to the side: "Their people, are they already here?" β
"Yes." Number Two replied respectfully, "According to the information, Christine has sent someone to Setland on the first day the information came, and this person is Miss Christine, Corinne Christine. β
Hearing this somewhat familiar name, Lynn was slightly stunned.
"Why her?"
Lynn didn't have much contact with Corinna, but she knew a little bit about it.
In his opinion, the girl was not a good lobbyist, and she was not a good choice if he wanted to get the Marquis de TraorΓ© to give up his thoughts.
In the face of Lynn's doubts, Number Two shook his head: "I don't know, but the intelligence flowing from some trivial information points out that this young lady recommended herself." β
"Self-nomination."
Lynn probably understood.
Corina had already shown her ambition to take a place in the family, but all the things she had accumulated before had been saved up on Hearst, and the resources she had now were basically better than nothing.
This opportunity to be a lobbyist may be one of the few opportunities for her to bring one of her family's connections to her side.
So, even if she may not be able to do so, she has to try her best.
"So, did she succeed?" Lynn asked again.
"Not really." "That little lady hasn't even seen the Marquis of TraorΓ© once since she came to Setland, and she has been taken around the city all day long, and all her actions have been silently perfunctory. β
"Sure enough." Lynn gave a look of understanding.
In the course of his brief acquaintance with Corinna, he knew that Corinne was a young lady who could be used as a typical nobleman.
She is ambitious, unwilling to accept that her status only exists on the stereotypical etiquette, she has the ability to help her brother win over a large number of network resources, but because of family education, her ambition and wrist do not match the proper mind, she still retains the indecision of the young ladies, and this hesitation makes her not suitable to be a good helmsman, deciding people.
She has the complex emotions unique to girls, so that she can't choose the right path in her heart from the complicated choices independently.
However, Corina is not a stupid person who does not know how to be flexible.
She may have sensed that she was a little incapable of making a final decision, so she formed a group for herself to make a firm choice for her.
It's a good shortcut, but when the unexpected strikes, her team doesn't always show up for her in time.
Now, the reason why this young lady is in a quagmire may be because there are not enough strategists around her to help her with advice, so that she can see what she really thinks in her heart.
"In that case, we may not be able to leave it alone."
Number Two nodded silently, while secretly scolding in his heart why Christine didn't send someone who could do it to give them another thing.
After a pause, he asked in a low voice, "Young Master, have you thought of a solution to them?" β
Lynn shook her head: "Not yet. β
The method used on the viscount is obviously a little difficult to reproduce now.
Setland was not as desolate and dilapidated as the Viscount's three towns.
The Marquis de TraorΓ© adheres to a policy of sustainable exploitation, so the people of the city have no problem living in the most basic of life, but it is a little difficult to get rich.
However, for most people, being able to ensure the most basic survival is enough to give them peace of mind.
Most ordinary people don't have any excessive ambitions, and being able to let them live in peace is enough not to rise up rebellious.
If they really want to slaughter the marquis, maybe they will give the organizers a knife in the "next worse" idea.
"Let's wait and see for a while." Lynn made a decision.
Because of the influence of the last mission, several other nobles who had ideas were a little more peaceful.
The time left for them is not too tight.
"That's right." Lynn turned her head to look at Six, who was sitting on the windowsill, "Six, is there any camouflage mask or anything like that?" β
"Huh?" Six tilted his head, "Yes, yes, but it's all for my own use, if you want it, I can make one for you." β
"Make me one." Lynn said.
There was no need to disguise it before, because it was almost impossible for anyone in that town to recognize his face, and he didn't appear much in the field of vision of outsiders, and the few who had an image of him were probably forced not to remember it now.
And now, he may have to stay for a short time, relatively speaking, the impression will be deeper, plus Corina knows him, in case he accidentally takes a photo and is recognized, it will not be good.
Watching Six go back to his room to tinker with the mask, Lynn went to the window and looked at the blue sky in the distance, and a thought suddenly rose in her heart that was worth pondering.
"Since Christine and we have the same purpose, can I find a way to get close to her and help her?"
.......
"Miss Corinna, I think this bracelet is very good."
In front of the counter, a young woman picked up the green bracelet and gestured it on the white wrist of the girl next to her, and sighed.
"It's beautiful, but it only shines in your hands."
"Thank you."
Corina smiled shyly, "But in my opinion, it should be more suitable for you, your elegance and its dazzling complement each other, far from being comparable to that of a young girl like me." β
The woman covered her lips and giggled like a big yellow duck that had been smoothed out.
After a moment, she restrained her smile and beckoned the clerk.
"Wrap it up." She turned to look at Corinna, "Is there anything else you want?" β
"Or do you want to take a look for yourself?"
"This ...... Not okay? β
Looking at the look of embarrassment on the girl's face, the woman said softly, "There's nothing bad about it, miss." β
After a pause, she sighed: "I can also see that we are standing by your side, which will only make you feel depressed, which is not what we should do." The lord told me that he would take you out shopping to make you happy. Everything is based on your mood, just like in the drama we just watched, I am standing in the background of the dark screen, and you are the real protagonist in the spotlight. β
Corina was still hesitant.
Although she did want to walk around alone to relieve the depression that had accumulated in her heart these days, she was afraid that she would lose her etiquette if she left alone.
Now that the woman proposed it herself, she thought again, when it came to this, leaving alone seemed to be the best choice, but if she really left, would her lord punish her for being inconsiderate.
Corina misses her friends so much now.
At this time, she just needs to put the two choices in front of them, and then listen to their votes on their respective decisions, and make an integration, and finally she will understand her mind and make a choice.
But now she was alone, and there was no one who could help her.
As far as the deadline was concerned, the woman made the decision for her without permission.
"Well, it's decided! You shop first, I'll pay for it later! β
The woman smiled and left.
Corina looked around, looked at the strange environment, and sighed faintly.
She didn't know how to describe how she felt at the moment.
Being alone was what she wanted, but the feeling of being forced to make a choice made her feel very strange.
Shaking her head, she sighed again and began to wander aimlessly down the street.
