12. Meeting, Dance Party (10)

"It's a complete rejection. ”

With his back to the sun, Li Lin's expression was mostly obscured by shadows, and it was difficult to tell whether it was sarcasm or regret that words echoed in the room.

After reading the report of the matter, after listening to the parties explain it from their own perspectives and views, Li Lin just left an indifferent comment.

(I guess this was expected.) οΌ‰

Roland reflected his adoptive father's indifferent face in his eyes, and swallowed in an enlightened heart.

It was Prime Minister Richelieu who took action, a political ally of the consortium, even temporarily, whose priority was still higher than that of the church, which was equally hostile to the consortium. Warning in this form is already an extra advantage, and there is no reason to continue to defuse the crisis, even if in the end, if the church must be pulled in order to facilitate peace talks, V.E must make a gesture that it has to do so out of good intentions.

All of them are under control, and the daily life of the world is still driven by the gears of the economy...... Yes.

"It's not a good thing for young people to see things through the eyes of the red dust, the light ones will be bald, and the heavy ones will send themselves to the brain doctor. ”

Roland looked up thinking he was talking about himself, and when he heard "This girl is not good at skin maintenance", he realized that Li Lin was talking about Diana, and with a little unhappy association, he replied calmly:

"Maybe she doesn't know. ”

Everyone has their own secrets that they don't want others to know, and it is not surprising that even if there is a limited distance between blood relatives.

Diana and Gielle are sisters, judging by the report. From the age of sensibility, they were raised and educated separately, and the number and time of meeting and talking were strictly limited. It's hard to believe that under this thin family bond, the sisters can share privacy deeply.

"There is this possibility, and now we hope that the church that received the alert will have a good appearance. ”

Although he still cares a little about this, after all, the person who should be troubled is not Li Lin, and the next work is on the desk.

"What do you think of that nun? Can she be admitted to the harem? Do you want to expand the dormitory and add soundproof walls or something?"

Poof――

The tea sprayed onto the wall 3 meters away, and Roland bent over and even burst into tears.

It has long been clear that Li Lin spoke directly. But every time this kind of topic is spoken. Jumping directly to keywords such as "harem" and "soundproof wall" still makes Roland unbearable.

"Yes...... I can't stop talking about harems and the like. ”

"Well, I can't stand it, you know, before you get engaged to Minerva, I'm going to arrange 17 blind dates for you, so that your child can be born next year. ”

"This is forced marriage!

"Ideally, we can hold five children in one year. Wait until Venia is a little older. The numbers could be increased. ”

"Even this is calculated?!"

"I got engaged to Minerva too early. What a mistake, I also ordered a triangular trojan horse, an eagle frame and other fun toys for your married life. ”

"I'll leave it to you, don't talk about it......"

The adoptive father, who is full of discipline, has no groove to spit out. Clasped palms against his forehead, Roland whispered. Perhaps because he felt that pressing too hard would cause mental pressure and affect fertility, Li Lin did not continue to discuss this issue, and got up and handed Roland a piece of paper.

"What is this?"

Taking the printer paper, Roland asked suspiciously, and the moment his eyes met the words, his face distorted as if he had eaten something sour.

There is a large list of words marked with "" on it: Father's Love Like a Mountain, Night Duty Father's Love, Dog and Scissors and Father's Love, Father's Love Bible...... Just by looking at it, goosebumps stood up, and the hand holding the paper trembled.

"The new drama was well received before, and the citizens' demand for entertainment was suddenly aroused, and they needed more and more interesting works, so I tried to write some scripts, you see if you want to ...... it."

"Don't! Don't kill me! Let me play this kind of thing, it's better to let me kill myself!!!

Throwing away the stack of papers like an electric shock, the young man rushed out of the door in horror, looking at the back of Roland who looked like a person who had given up on healing, Li Lin shrugged, picked up the paper, sat back at the desk, and habitually tapped his fingers on the table.

The office door opened again, and Nidhogg, who had erased his expression, strolled in, quickly using the lightning strike technique to dismantle and dry the tea stains on the walls and floors, and manipulated the wind to smooth out the printing paper on the ground and put it back in place. When he finished cleaning up, Li Lin's fingers tapping on the table stopped.

"Let Stasi investigate the relationships of the Virgen El, not just Imir, but also the relationships when visiting the country in the past. ”

"Yes, Your Excellency. ”

Whatever Richelieu's old fox was having, he could not be wrong in planning to use one of the saint's tricks to make trouble.

Logically speaking, he should give Richelieu help, but everything has a sequence, and if it is a small action that affects the overall situation, Li Lin has to consider some measures that may affect the political alliance.

I hope that the bishop will be able to do his own thing.

##############

The spacious room, the soft and bright red velvet carpet, the antique wood-framed ceiling lamp, and the magic lamp illuminate the cardinal's face, thin and indifferent, like a sculpture. In front of the living sculpture is a chessboard, and black is dominant, and it is about to be checkmated.

Richelieu held a "queen" chess piece in his hand, staring intently at the portrait on the opposite wall, and Li Lin in the frame held a wine glass and looked back at him with a sneer.

It is the custom of the Prime Minister to put the portrait of the enemy in the foremost position, so as to remind himself not to forget that the opponent is staring at him.

In the past, the person in that position was like Walsingham, who was replaced by Li Lin ten years ago and has been hanging to this day.

Li Lin is a strong enemy.

Cunning, treacherous, ruthless, tyrannical -- Li Lin possessed all the advantages of being a politician, and even far surpassed them in every way. If he was born in a family with the surname "DE", not to mention the position of prime minister, even if he became an elector prince, it would not be inconceivable to attack the throne.

Richelieu agrees with this, not even willing to admit the difference between himself and his opponents, and is paranoid about people of noble blood, who are nothing more than a group of cowards who escape from reality, and who have no chance of winning in a cruel struggle. Only those who admit the gap, swallow the failure as food, continue to accumulate experience and strength, and finally surpass the opponent are the ones who can achieve great things.

Therefore, the first thing to learn is to learn to "endure".

Although he managed to achieve the same proficiency in ninjutsu as Tokugawa Ieyasu, the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle" of the Sengoku period of a certain island nation, Prime Minister Richelieu's endurance and self-control were also top-notch, and he worked with the consortium to adjust the national course and remove the stumbling blocks that hindered the centralization of power, and thus passed for 10 years.

10 years, how many more 10 years can I have?

Whenever he thought of this question, Richelieu's feelings could not help but become agitated. Experience and strength can be accumulated and powerful changes can be made, but only time ...... However, only this is enough to offset the key elements of the previous qiΔ“, and he is firmly on Li Lin's side.

The lifespan of a magician is longer than that of ordinary people, so that an old man and a middle-aged person can get longer and more nourishing than who is dying, and everyone knows the result without looking at the process.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister. ”

Richelieu's reluctance was interrupted by the woman who emerged from the secret door of the bookshelf, and her indifferent gray-blue eyes glanced at his most capable spy, Milady, dressed as an ordinary woman, and Pepe, the demon monkey on her shoulder, and bowed.

"Take this order. ”

Using the technique of the wind, a copy of the text was delivered to Miledi, and the prime minister said:

"That order gives you the power to get help from powerful agencies everywhere, but remember to use it sparingly to avoid exposing your tracks. Now set out for Lundinium, and find a way to get a piece of jewellery from the Duke of Buckingham before the saint arrives in LΓΌdes. ”

"Yes, Your Excellency. ”

Milady nodded in agreement, turned and disappeared into the secret passage, the piece in the bishop's hand back on the board. (To be continued......)
