Is the night devil queen me?

"I know, he is indeed doing this, and it's a very smart way." Trent replied, "But Saint Leia probably only regards him as a candidate and is still observing him. The Saint who just took office Daughter Leia is nothing more than looking for one thing, that is stability. The Church of the Holy Light has been in civil strife for so long, and stability is the most urgent priority now, so even though Duke Dornna has been showing his hospitality, Saint Daughter Leia does not have much. Respond."

Khakis snorted coldly, "That saint is probably watching my attitude."

Trent nodded, "As long as she is obedient, she should not interfere in the internal affairs of the Star-Moon Empire."

"But I've already broken my face with that Chapter Cardinal."

"Hehehe..." Trent laughed a few times, "The cardinal's attitude is too different. It seems that he was angered by Saintess Leia, but why should His Majesty worry about Saintess Leia's work? Don’t you know the way? She will keep this kind of person? This woman is very shrewd. Even if she is a god-given Holy Light, she climbed to the top of the Holy Light Church in her 20s. Coupled with the fact that she is now closely related to the elves, the most powerful and mysterious race on this continent, on a certain level, we should be thankful that she has not directly intervened in our empire until now."

"But I think that the hidden dangers in the empire should be resolved first." Khakis said with a cold expression, "If Donna doesn't get rid of it for a day, I won't rest for a moment!"

"I actually think that His Majesty the King should get the relationship with the Lantisman Chamber of Commerce in order first." Trent was very serious, and tapped his fingers on the table, "I can probably guess that His Majesty the King wants to borrow the Lantisman Chamber of Commerce." The Man Chamber of Commerce's hand excludes dissidents, but those two women are untouchable, I have seen them, and I can tell you clearly, I am not sure that I can take down that red-haired woman."

"!" Khakis widened his eyes, "That is to say..."

"That's right, she's a saint-level powerhouse." Trent frowned.

"Sure enough..."

"Your Majesty, there are two things you need to know. First, how important the people who are guarded by holy-ranked strongmen are to the chamber of commerce. I don’t trust our empire anymore.” Trent continued, “After all, you are my favorite, I know what you are thinking, and I also know what you think about the old concepts of us old guys, king Your Majesty, thinking about the old love, I will once again tell you what I say from the bottom of my heart. If you think it makes sense, Your Majesty, you have to think carefully before acting. Just an old man's gibberish."

Chapter 28 People are easy to be deceived

Khakis gently stroked his chin with his right index finger and thumb. He didn't answer Trent immediately because he was thinking.

Although Khakis has always disdained the outdated ideas of these older generations, so he had conflicts with some senior officials in the empire, including Trent, but he knew very well that the protector of the empire would not lie , since he said that the red-haired woman is a strong man of the holy rank, it must be a strong man of the holy rank.

Khakis narrowed his eyes slightly, thoughts spinning rapidly in his mind.

It's no wonder that Duke Dorna suddenly changed his mind and wanted to bid in a formal way. Did he already know the strength of that red-haired woman?

Do not……

maybe not.

After all, Duke Donna didn't have a holy rank powerhouse on his side, so he couldn't directly see through the strength of a holy rank powerhouse, so it should be just suspicion.

If so...

Khakis looked at Trent. He knew that although the protector of the country had always been prejudiced against him, his loyalty to the empire was unquestionable. Now that the empire was in trouble, the Duke of Donna was eyeing him. A saint The support of superpowers is very important.

What's more... Khakis also got a little gossip about Trent...

The authenticity of this news is worth verifying.

If you can bend and stretch, you will become a great cause.

The thoughts of these veterans are easy to guess, and they are also very easy to please them. It was not that Khakis was unwilling to establish a good relationship with them before, but he was displeased with their pointing and pointing. He compared him with his father in everything. Unacceptable.

Today's world belongs to me, not to my father, and the minister must do what the king wants, this is Kaqisi's consistent thinking and practice.

Now the situation is different, and Khakis feels that some changes must be made.

These veterans are very loyal to the empire, which is a very good point to take advantage of.

Thinking of this, the corners of Khakis' mouth twitched slightly.

"I understand, Saint Trent." Khakis's tone became very soft, "You are very reasonable, after going through all these things, I should think about what I did before, I know You have always held prejudice against me, but I have a clear conscience in everything I do for the Empire."

Khakis knew that Trent would say so much to him, which proved that he had been doing what he liked before, and had some effect in pleasing him. Why not use this opportunity to speak directly and eliminate the prejudice in his heart, so that the next step step.

For so long, Trent was the first time to see Khakis speak softly, which caused some changes in his heart.

"Your Majesty, do you know a word called loyalty." Trent sighed heavily, "We old ministers, none of us are for the prosperity of the empire."

"I know, I understand, Holy One of Trent, today you are still willing to persuade me with good words, proving that I still have room to stay." Khakis stood up, came to Trent, and saluted very solemnly, : "I was young and frivolous, and I took on this great responsibility. I apologize for what I did wrong in the past, and I will look to Lord Trent for more advice in the future!"

When the king of a country made such a big gift, Trent suddenly burst into tears, and quickly got up to support Khakis, "Why does His Majesty the King make such a big gift, we are just mere courtiers."

"No, you can afford it. I was young before and didn't understand this truth. From now on, I will work hard to change. The dignity lost by the empire and the glory lost by the emperor will be taken back by me!" Kaqisi said with a firm expression and a high-pitched tone. .

"Okay! Very good!" Trent squeezed Khakis's hand, very excited: "This is the style of the royal family! The demeanor of the emperor! Your father is alive! He will be proud of you!"

"Hmm!" Khakis nodded, patted Trent's palm lightly, turned around and said, "According to your proposal, Mr. Saint Trent, the first priority now is to please Landisman The Chamber of Commerce, the only way is to win the auction and add another batch of goods to please them, after all, they are a group of merchants, as long as they make money, they will be happy."

"That's true." Trent smiled and nodded.

"It's just..." Khakis, who had his back to Trent, moved his pupils backwards, and cast a glance at Trent imperceptibly, "Duke Donna is sure to win this auction, and now the treasury is tight, I have to settle this account carefully."

After finishing speaking, Khakis lowered his head slightly and remained silent, with shadows covering his eyes.

Hearing this, Trent looked at Khakis for a while, and then looked aside, as if he was thinking about something.

After about a few minutes, the atmosphere remained silent for a few minutes. Trent nodded, made up his mind, and said to Khakis, "Your Majesty, there is actually one thing that you don't know yet."

"Oh?"

Trent couldn't understand Khakis' expression, and watched him raise his head from behind, expressing his puzzlement.

"Your father, the former His Majesty the King, had his own private treasury and entrusted me with the map and keys. Before he passed away, he told me to hand them over to you at the right time. I think now is the right time. "Trent said lightly.

Ah……

With his back to Trent, in the shadows, the corners of Khakis' mouth curled up, and he smiled inwardly.

"This..." Turning around, Khakis seemed to have changed his face, his expression was very surprised, but at the same time he was a little flattered, "There is such a thing...Father, he really paid too much. It's just that, Lord Trent Saint, although it's very strange for me to say this, shouldn't you observe and observe before making a decision?"

"Hahaha..." Trent smiled reassuringly, "His Majesty the King will say so, which proves that my decision is correct, not to mention that the internal affairs of the empire are unstable and the treasury is tight. I think this is the right time to hand over the treasury to you. It's very suitable, Your Majesty the King, just accept it, this is also your father's wish."

As he said that, the light in Trent's palm flickered, and a golden key and a slightly old map appeared.

"It's really embarrassing..." Khakis took it with both hands, "Please rest assured, Saint Trent, and please rest assured, Father Emperor in Heaven, I will do my best to help the Star-Moon Empire overcome difficulties, stabilize internal affairs, and regain glory!"

"Good! Very good!" Trent was full of praise.

After chatting for a few more words, Khakis left the Hall of the Saints with the key and the map.

Back in his bedroom, he put the keys and map on the table and looked at them blankly.

After an unknown amount of time, the corners of his mouth slowly curled up, his body trembling slightly, and he let out a laugh.

"Heh...hehehehe...hahahaha!!!"

The louder and louder the laughter, the more presumptuous his expression became. He raised his head and laughed wildly.

Chapter 29 Cracking

Naron Empire.

It was originally just a small town with a population of no more than [-], but due to the development of the local alchemy industry, the population grew rapidly. In less than five years, it had a population of more than [-], which was larger than the population of some small empires. There were even more, and it was later included as a subsidiary empire by the Xingyue Empire, and the country was officially named Nalong.

Most of the nobles here are formerly famous alchemists or wealthy businessmen. The Duwet family is a well-known businessman in the empire. After the empire was formally established, they were knighted and became nobles.

Du Weitt has only one daughter, who is regarded as the apple of his eye and loved very much. Later, he married a young man who was only the driver responsible for the delivery of the Du Weit family's goods.

His name was Mann, and he married Duvet's only daughter, Linda, into his family, became the heir to Duvet's great cause, and was granted a title of knighthood.

Facts have proved that Duvet Sr. has a good vision, and her daughter Linda has a good vision. Mann is hard-working, humble, intelligent and full of sense of justice. He treats Linda impeccably. With his help, the family business , flourishing.

The days to come should have been better and better and happier.

Until one day, Mann rescued a blond girl from outside.

That girl is as beautiful as an angel, and her body and appearance are all at the level of a country. As a woman, Linda felt an instinctive sense of crisis when her husband brought this woman, but at first she He didn't care and chose to trust his husband.

And it turned out that her trust was a joke.

At night, the noble mansion.

Linda was sitting on a chair, holding the ledger in her hand, her brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

Because there are several accounts in it, no matter how she calculates, she can't figure it out, and it doesn't match up at all.

It's okay if it's some small money, but the amount involved is not a joke.

Throwing the ledger heavily on the table, Linda closed her eyes and rubbed her temples and sighed heavily.

Not long after, the door of the room opened.

No one could enter the room without knocking, except Linda's own husband, Mann.

"Mann." Linda opened her eyes and stood up.

"What's the matter?" The noble young man named Mann seemed to be in a good mood, humming a little song, and his movements were brisk.

"This..." Linda originally wanted to explode directly, but she suppressed it. These days, the couple who never quarreled, because the blonde girl did not know how many times they quarreled.

Therefore, Linda tried her best to be calm, and asked in a non-emotional tone, "There are a few expenses here, and there is no indication of their use."

Hearing this sentence, the happy expression on Mann's face disappeared instantly, "What's wrong? As the head of my family, do I need to mark the money?"

"Expenses must be specified. No matter who uses it, no matter how much it is, this is your rule. What's more, it's fine if it's small money, but do you know how much money is spent in it? It's our annual income Half of it! Where did you spend it?" Linda has already started to have some mood swings.

"Business expenses." Mann's tone was a little impatient.

"Business expenses? What kind of business, why don't I know?" Linda continued to ask.

"Do I have to report to you?" Mann stood up, "Do you want to quarrel again?"

"What do you mean I want to quarrel again? I don't think you are using it for business!" Linda couldn't bear it anymore, and burst out directly.

"Again!? Do you think I used it on Cecilia again!? Are you still not satisfied that I have sent her away?" Mann's voice also became louder, "What!? You don't trust me !? I am married to you! But all these years! How much have I paid for your family!? How much money have I earned!? Now you just ask here and there for some money! Do I need to report to you every day! Who is the head of this family!"

"Your family?" Linda's eyes widened, "Why do you call your family!? Over the years! Who looks down on you! Who doesn't treat you as their own family!? Can I marry you if I look down on you? Don't treat you as a family!" Will my family hand over the family business to you!?"

"Stop talking!" Mann waved his hand, "I won't quarrel with you! Let me go!"

"Go!? Where are you going!? You said you sent that blond woman away!? Where did you send it? There is a sum of money in this to buy a house! You tell me! Who lives in the house you bought! ?” Linda slammed the table.

"Are you investigating me?" Mann's tone was filled with anger.

"Don't investigate you? Could it be possible to let you marry a concubine!?"

"What? Can't you?" Mann's eyes were cold, and he approached Linda.

Linda instinctively took a step back, "You..."

"I'm a majestic earl, so I can't marry a concubine?" Mann said coldly, "You'd better stop messing with me, otherwise, it's not certain who will be the concubine and who will be the wife."

"What... what did you say!?" Linda couldn't believe her ears.

"You know what to say." Mann finally left the room with such a sentence.

Tears rolled from the corners of Linda's eyes. Looking at Mann's back as he walked further and further away, she couldn't even tell him to stop. She sat down slowly, lowered her head, and her long bangs covered her face. Face, no expression can be seen.

The atmosphere is silent. At this moment, all the silence is depressing.

I don't know how long it took before a maid said respectfully at the door, "Ma'am, Master Duvet's ball is scheduled..."

"What dance are you going to!? Canceled! Canceled!" Linda cried and lifted the table violently. The porcelain and objects fell, making a crackling sound, and the maid trembled in fright.

"Yes... yes... I'm going to cancel it now..." The maid hurriedly got up and prepared to leave, for fear of getting angry with her master.

"Wait!"

"Ah yes..."

Suddenly, Linda called to the maid. She gritted her teeth and wiped away her tears, "Get the carriage ready! I'll be there soon!"

"Understood..." The maid bowed and saluted.

Linda opened the closet and instinctively reached out to grab a conservative dress, but her hand stopped in the air at this moment. After thinking for a while, she took out the barely worn, very sexy dress. skirt.

She carefully put on makeup, put on all kinds of expensive jewelry, put on a sexy long dress, took care of her hair, and sprayed on perfume. With a cold face, she walked out of the room and got into the carriage.

When Linda came to the dance held by her father, as soon as Linda walked in, she attracted the attention of many men.

Linda is naturally beautiful. In the past, she dressed conservatively and only wore light makeup. It was the first time for the men present to see her with such heavy makeup and bold and unrestrained clothing. The sense of difference brought about by this made them unable to take their eyes off.

"Father." Linda came to a middle-aged man and bowed gracefully.

"Oh, Linda is here." The middle-aged man's name is Du Weitt. He turned around and was stunned for a moment when he saw his daughter's outfit, but he soon came back to his senses, approached her and whispered, "Why are you dressed like this tonight?"

"Is there something wrong? Father." Linda replied in a low voice.

"You're all married, so don't you have to pay attention to how you dress?" Du Weite frowned, but he didn't pay much attention to it. He just muttered a few words, "That's all, come on, let me introduce someone to you."

Duvit led Linda and walked forward.

It was a red-haired boy in a white suit. He had a handsome face, with clear lines like a statue, and his manner was elegant and generous. He was talking with people, and his smile from time to time was as warm as the sunrise. When Werther led Linda, his eyes met Linda for a moment.

dong dong...

Her heart skipped a beat, and Linda's pupils shrank.
