Li's path

Chapter 724

Seeing that Claire's thinking became more and more crooked, Li En quickly denied it.

"Stop thinking about it, I'm definitely not the 'him' you mentioned, I just sent a letter."
"Impossible. Your Excellency has been in Balfram Palace all night and has not seen any strangers." Claire let go of her hand and retorted subconsciously.

"Since it's a secret, it's natural not to let other people know about it. There just happens to be someone among my acquaintances who can evade all the security systems and send the letter in silently."

"Avoiding all the security systems is only possible for superpowers. The superpowers who are closely related to you include "Sword Master" Cassius Bright, "Wind Sword Master" Arios Maclay Therefore, "Sword Fairy" Yun Kafai and "Silver Moon Princess" Ma Lixia. Among them, "Sword Saint" is in Liber, "Sword Fairy" is in Codeland, and only the "Sword Saint" who is cut off from the outside world The Sword Master of the Wind and Princess Silver Moon are unable to grasp their whereabouts. It seems unlikely that the character and fighting style of the Sword Master of the Wind would do such a thing, so it could only be—” Claire Ya's brain was running at high speed, and after ruling out all the possibilities, she got the answer, "Your girlfriend "Silver Moon Princess" Mao Lixia."

"As expected of "The Ice Maiden", the answer is correct." Li En chuckled.

"But...as of that film, we hadn't heard of Silvermoon leaving."

"Tsk tsk, are you monitoring the whereabouts of superpowers? As expected, it would be strange for the "Intelligence Bureau" not to be so ****."

"Everything is for the safety of the empire, I believe you can understand."

"Understanding is one thing, accepting is another. Forget about it, since it's my sister who asks, I'll tell you. I won't bother to talk to someone else—your information is correct, Before the cover appeared, Lisha had been rehearsing in "Rainbow Troupe". She was Closbell who left after three days. The reason for doing this was not to let her go to the muddy water in Kezhou, but also to keep her own cards At that time, the whole empire was full of gunpowder, and it would not be strange to fight anytime."

Li En revealed that what happened to Lisha was not impulsive, but the result of careful consideration.Lisha had shown up in front of Torval, Elysee, and Alfin before, and after completing the task of escorting her parents to Hamel, she went to Ragram to report safety to her companions there according to Li En's plan, and To carry out a secret mission—this is why Li En went directly to the Nord Plateau without going to Regram first.

In other words, even if Li En doesn't say it now, Claire will see Lisha sooner or later, and she will still have doubts.In this case, it is better to say it in advance, just to provide strong evidence for the fact that the prime minister is not dead.

Claire didn't care about the reason Li En said, what she cared about was—"Three days later...do you have a way to get in touch with the film?"

"The message can only be sent to a few specific people, there is no guarantee that it will be delivered, and there is no timeliness." Li En thought for a while and gave an ambiguous answer.The so-called contact method is to send someone to speak to Promancao and pass the voice to Chia. The specific ones refer to Seventh Sister, Levi, Xiaodi and others.

"That's right." The light in Claire's eyes dimmed again.

"Don't show such an expression, sister." Li En skillfully used "Touch the head to kill" (Li En: I am so proficient, I can't accept it. Hold back.), "You don't have to worry about Captain Arundel, before Lisha leaves I have heard from him."

"Really?" The agitated Claire didn't realize that she was being taken advantage of.

"Of course, I won't lie to my sister." Well, I still lied, Lisha didn't know about Recter at all, but Li En was familiar with the plot of "Traces of Jade", so he knew, "Arandel The life of the captain is much better than that of your sister, not only safe and sound, but also accompanied by beautiful women, don't be too happy."

"It's really in line with his style." Hearing this news, Claire was not surprised at all, "That beauty must not be an ordinary person, if I guessed correctly, she should be Rector's meeting partner, Kalvard Wuxiang Loulan, chief of the Republic's "Rocksmith Agency"?"

"Uh, sister, why don't you be so perceptive." Li En's mouth twitched, talking to these monsters is too boring, you start, they know what you want to say - such as Claire, such as Wuxiang, such as Rector, such as Cassius, such as his own father.

"Looks like I guessed it right." The corners of Claire's mouth curled up.

"Yeah, I sincerely hope that the two of them can hide together for a month, and then something interesting happens, hehe, by then—"

"How about it?"

"I can send this news to the two guys who may be transcendent at any time, and Recter will just wait to be hunted down by them, wow hahahaha!" Li En said "two guys who may be transcendent at any time" refers to Naturally, they are Wuxiang's two senior brothers, two older men with high strength and low EQ - Varut from "Thin Wolf" and Jin from "Immovable".

"Sigh..." Seeing Li En's embarrassed expression, Claire sighed helplessly, "Although I don't know why you did this, I think the possibility of the 'happy thing' you mentioned is basically zero. "

"Well, that's it, then I'll spread the rumors. Anyway, Rector and Sister Wuxiang did hide together for a month, adding fuel and vinegar. Hmm, um, it seems to be very tricky."

Everyone should know that men are sometimes scarier than women when they are narrow-minded.Because of the past between Rector and Kolotiya, Li En has been upset with that handsome red-haired guy for a long time.Now that there is an opportunity to add trouble to her, Li En will naturally not give up.

Besides, anyone who has played "Trails in the Sky 3RD" knows that Recter followed the prime minister for fun. If he ever thought it would be more fun to betray the prime minister, he might betray him. No.

"It's up to you." Claire smiled helplessly. Anyway, with Rector's ability, at most, he would suffer a little bit, and his life would not be in danger. That lazy guy who didn't look good all day should also suffer a little bit.

"Oh, I accidentally dragged it too far." Li En slapped his forehead, "I just wanted to tell you that Li Xia sent my letter to Your Excellency the Prime Minister, as long as you don't want to die wholeheartedly, it is impossible for you to die here According to my opinion, he must be hiding somewhere and watching what happened in the empire, secretly planning how to kill the noble alliance."

"I see." Claire nodded thoughtfully.

At this moment, she really believed that the prime minister was still alive, followed by ecstasy and doubts.

There is no need to say more about the ecstasy.As for the doubts - it is naturally not a non-standard question like "Why didn't you come forward to integrate the army and fight against the noble alliance"
Claire knew very well that the seemingly incongruous situation of the aristocratic coalition was largely due to the death of Prime Minister Osborne, the arrest of Chief Regnitz, and the leaderless reformers. Each fights.

Most of the high-level members of the Noble Alliance believe that as time goes by, the advantages of the Noble Alliance will become greater and greater. It is only a matter of time before the reformists are defeated. The entire Erebonia will soon be dominated by the Noble Alliance. .As a result, the ambitions buried deep in the hearts of some people in the alliance began to ferment and swell.

After all, the noble alliance is just an alliance, and it does not have an absolute benchmark and leader like the reformists. Each of the "Four Famous Families" has huge financial, material, and military resources, and they have no affiliation with each other. When external conflicts are too strong, the "Four Famous Families" can work together to fight against "foreign enemies". When the contradictions are suppressed, the internal contradictions buried before will burst out.

In "Four Famous Families", the Duke of Kane is the most powerful and ambitious, occupying the imperial capital and occupying the leading position in the alliance, coercing the emperor to order the princes, and dictating the place.

The Albarea family ranked second. The eldest son of the family served as the general staff of the "League of Nobles". He was highly valued by Duke Kane. It is said that the alliance between the two families should be very strong.However, the head of the Al Barrea family, the current Duke of Al Barrea, Helmut, is not satisfied with the status quo. He is also the Duke, so why should Kane be the leader, and I, Al Barrea, can't do it?So Helmut began to act secretly, while privately recruiting allies to expand his power, and at the same time investigating the whereabouts of the missing Princess Alfin, hoping to obtain the capital to compete with Kane.Even now that the situation in "Double Dragon Bridge" is tense, Helmut still hasn't stopped his secret actions.

The third-ranked Marquis of Haynes had the strangest attitude. After successfully suppressing the regular army in Sazarant, the Haines family slowed down.Unless they receive a request for support from the alliance, the Haines family will never extend their tentacles beyond their jurisdiction, and they are so peaceful that people can't figure it out.

The house of the Marquis of Rogner at the bottom has the most distinctive banner. The Marquis of Rogner is a well-known royalist, and he agreed to raise troops only for the "side of the Qing Dynasty".Now that the "treacherous officials" have been eliminated, His Majesty the Emperor is still under house arrest by the Duke of Kane, which makes the Marquis of Rogner very dissatisfied. If it weren't for the Third Mecha Division watching over his back, the situation in the state would not have completely stabilized. He had already raised his troops to go south, and then "side of the Qing emperor".

Claire dared to affirm that the day the noble alliance is stable is the day when the alliance falls apart. At that time, not only will the empire not return to peace, but it will become even more chaotic.The reason why the alliance has not fallen apart is only because the regular army is still resisting and the reformers have not given up.

What if, at this time, Prime Minister Osborne, the backbone of the reformists and the well-deserved leader, appeared again?
Re-integrate the reformists and unite all the regular armies against the noble alliance?Yes, of course, if His Excellency the Prime Minister shows up, he will definitely do so.

But in this way, the alliance of aristocrats who seem to be in harmony with each other will once again abandon their previous suspicions and work together to fight their deadly enemies with all their strength, because they are too aware of Osborn's horror.The reformists led by Osborn will not sit still, and will definitely fight back with all their strength. By then, the empire will be several times more chaotic than it is now.

At the end of the war, no matter which side wins, the empire will be severely injured, the country will be shaken, and foreign enemies will be able to take advantage of it. This is definitely not the situation that Osborn wants to see.

Osborn loved the Empire deeply, and no one hoped for the prosperity of the Empire more than him, and Claire firmly believed in this.

The only thing she wondered was why didn't you contact me?With my own assistance, it will be easier for you to grasp the trend of the empire, and it is impossible for me to reveal the secret that you are still alive. Instead, you will be more motivated because you are still alive. Isn't that great?And, moreover, he would not show a weak and helpless expression when he was alone.

"I think he wants to see how much you can do without him." Li En said, "Children of "Son of Iron and Blood", "Iron Prime Minister", children will one day be independent from their parents. Just like your sister is now."

"Is that so?" Claire closed her eyelids, and once buried her head in Li En's shoulder, "Lend me to lean on for a while, just a while."

"Ah."

When Claire raised her head again, the weakness and hesitation, helplessness and sadness disappeared without a trace, and the famous "Ice Maiden" returned.

"Thank you, Li En, I'm fine now. I won't have any confusion anymore, I will complete the homework assigned by you, and I will let you see that his child is the best."

"This is the "Ice Maiden" I know." Li En stared at the heroic young woman in front of him with a warm smile.

"Speaking of which, why did you ask Miss Lisha to take the risk of delivering a letter to Your Excellency instead of sending it to me directly? And, from what you're saying, did you anticipate Klau's true identity?"

"Uh..." Li En's smile stiffened, and he screamed madly in his heart.

For a while, I didn't know how to explain it.

"Student Li En?" Claire stared suspiciously into Li En's eyes. The night wind stirred Claire's hair, bringing a hint of cool fragrance, but he had no intention of accepting it.

"There are very important and profound reasons for this." Li En glanced aside, not daring to meet Claire's gaze.

"Then what is the reason? Can you tell me?"

Claire pressed her step by step, and Li En stepped back step by step until his back leaned against the railing, his body leaned back, and he almost fell.

"Uh, sister, can you let me go, I really can't say."

"." Claire stared at Li En's face for a full minute before she said, "If you can't say it, then don't say it. No matter what, I want to thank you and Miss Lisha for delivering the letter to Your Excellency, but you chose to hide it. Look at me, make me a little unhappy, I'm... so unworthy of your trust?"

"No, no, absolutely not. It's because I didn't think carefully, and there won't be a next time." Li En shook his head like a rattle, "Well, it's my fault to hide from my sister, I was wrong."

"Hehe. You also have your own considerations, so you don't need to apologize to me." Claire suddenly reached out and touched Li En's forehead, and smiled, "I was just joking, I seem to have scared you."

"Uh, sister, you've failed in your studies." Li En was in a bad mood, he put me on the table first, and then patted his head to kill him. Where's the high-cold girl that was agreed?
"I learned from you." Claire said confidently.

What a pity - Li En just wanted to yell out the mantra of being a mother to the sea of ​​clouds at the moment.

Shout out to you, you got a cheap and good-looking guy, don't you feel the resentment of gasoline and torches?
