Chapter 154: Aftermath
"Your Highness Princess, Miss Lucia Leviathan has arrived, will you lead her to the reception room?"
The head maid whispered in Sophia's ear.
"I see. ”
Sophia nodded.
"Take her to ...... My dorm bar. ”
Rather than a public meeting room, Sophia prefers to let Lucia take her own private area.
Private strip.
The word made Sophia's face flush slightly, and leading her sweetheart to her bedroom made her feel indescribably shy, and she cautiously glanced at the head maid, and only after finding that the head maid did not show a strange look, Sophia put her heart back in her stomach.
Sophia felt that she must have been overly nervous because of the initial relationship.
That's right, it's normal for girls to invite girls to their bedrooms.
"Yes. ”
The head maid, who had been given the order, retreated.
Sophia twisted uneasily in her chair, wondering if Lucia would feel that she was too hypocritical and a little emotional.
It's a strange feeling that is really incomprehensible to fall in love.,At the first time I experienced it, even I only vaguely felt the change.,But when this mood is fully understood.,Everything before becomes clear in the memory again.。
When I first met Lucia, I only felt that this child was reassuring, and in the future, I slowly liked this child who was off the line at any time but didn't know it, but this was just 'like', and this relationship really began to change when I met the demon for the first time, when the desperate and helpless Sophia fell in love with Lucia who was still as bright as the sun in despair.
Be that as it may. Sophia remained almost obsessively sane, and she knew it was a relationship that would not come to fruition. Even getting a response is a question, and the heavy shackles of responsibility are entangled. Sophia couldn't even show her heart to Lucia.
Maybe after a while, when the enthusiasm dies down, you can give up.
Sophia used to think so.
However, after being saved by the light named Lucia again, Sophia understands that she really can't escape.
Sophia couldn't help but smile on her face.
His heart is no longer in him, how can he escape from his empty body?
"Princess. ”
This is really a sweet trap, even if you know that this is irrational, but the mood will not deceive yourself, Sophia, who calmly agrees with this feeling, feels like her whole person is soaked in honey.
"Her Royal Highness Princess Sophia. ”
Sophia's smile froze. Is it because of honey, and why are there always some annoying flies so uninteresting?
- No, that's not true. Sophia shook her head, and said that flies were too defiled with this sweet love, so let's replace it with bees, although the level of mortals has not changed much, but at least it doesn't sound so disgusting.
"I'm listening, Prime Minister Bisconti. ”
After answering this, Sophia leaned back. The whole body leaned back in the chair.
As the main seat in the king's study, the chair that originally belonged to the king was enjoyable in every way, and the comfortable feeling made Sophia stretch lazily.
Sophia, who was strict with herself in all aspects, would not make such an undignified act in the presence of outsiders, but recently she has become more and more fond of this lazy feeling. It's as lovable as Lucia, who likes to be lazy.
"What, is our Prime Minister going to tell me the reason why my ministers left the royal capital overnight before the incident, or do you want to find more excuses for abandoning the people?"
The aftermath of the past three days has made Sophia basically understand why her father behaves so irrationally, and what surprised Sophia the most was that. Almost all the officials of the royal capital approved of and carried out this terrible plan.
Although it can be understood that these people are only obedient to the royal family, and they are really acting for the country. But Sophia is not a saint and gentleman, reason can understand. Sensuality can't be forgiven, can't forgive only what he did to hide himself, can't forgive this kind of big gamble that is almost equivalent to self-destruction.
Simon Bisconti, the prime minister, who is nearly sixty years old, has the characteristic height and strength of the Khivas, meticulously tied his gray hair behind his head, and his weathered face is full of fortitude, so that people can not feel the powerlessness of old age, but only the stability and wisdom of aging.
Even when he was reprimanded by the princess to his face, Prime Minister Bisconti did not change his color, he only maintained his proper humility with composure, but looked directly into the princess's eyes without flinching, unlike the group of ministers and nobles standing behind him.
As His Majesty said, the Ministers did approve of this dangerous plan, and did not intend to shirk sophistries or make excuses. ”
Prime Minister Bisconti's voice is like a calm stake, and one can feel that his every word is as steady as being rooted in the earth.
"But now that the plan has failed and His Majesty Hax has died, then we have to put the follow-up problems in the first place, and we can't let the vultures who smell blood have a chance to take advantage of it. ”
Of course, Sophia knew that Prime Minister Bisconti was right, and she thought so, but as she said just now, reason could understand it, but emotion could not accept it.
"So you're trying to get Lucia involved?"
That's right, Bisconti's proposal was to make Lucia take some of the responsibility, thus further complicating the already complicated things, and thus giving Khiva more room to maneuver.
"As Your Majesty said before, it can be said that the source of the demonic invasion is the merchant named Mephistopheles, but the connection between His Majesty Hax and the merchant is not so easy to severe. ”
It is more beneficial for the royal family and the country to clear all relations between the king and the devil than to sing the king as a hero who fights the devil to the death.
Sophia knew that this was a completely correct judgment, and in order to prevent the Lilbourne family from being labelled as a 'betrayal of humanity', it was necessary to use such means to block interference from the Holy See.
But she didn't want Lucia to be involved, and she didn't want Lucia to have the infamy of killing the king for this.
Seeing Sophia's hesitation, Bisconti was both relieved and worried, but at the same time he couldn't bear it, but for the sake of the country, he continued to advise.
"The young lady named Lucia has a power far beyond that of humans, and an even more powerful dragon under her command, which gives her the possibility of doing anything. ”
This is from the oral accounts of the survivors of the royal capital, and to be honest, the Prime Minister of Sconti didn't believe it much at first, but after reporting for the city, he knew that this was a great opportunity.
"Too much power can become a threat, and the threat will make people temporarily break the reasonableness of what they insist on, and this is the main reason for His Majesty's request. ”
Only the overly powerful Leviathan master and servant can be used as a reason to ignore some of the unchangeable irrationalities in this set of fabricated statements.
As if seeing hope for success, a nobleman behind Prime Minister Bisconti bent down and pleaded in what he thought was the most sincere of all.
"Please also ask Your Highness to agree, this is also for the country!" (To be continued.) )
