Among other things, the number of slaves rescued here in Town Demon City alone was far more than Wei Lisi imagined. The preliminary statistics reached more than 4000. It must be known that the total number of poachers killed and captured in the battle was less than [-].
In other words, on average, each poacher stole at least ten aliens.
This is only in the city. The number of those who have been sold, or hidden in remote villages and towns outside the Town of Demon City, and in other cities is simply unimaginable.
When she first heard about this number from the ugly-faced Mona, even Wei Lisi was so shocked that she didn't know what to say.
It turned out that what she saw in the underground black market was not even the tip of the iceberg. If Lilia, the queen of a country, hadn't intervened in such a huge number, it would be a big problem to arrange and deal with it, let alone save it.
In this way, it can be seen how rampant the hidden slave reselling industry is under the prosperous appearance of the United Kingdom.
If Lilia is really determined to investigate to the end, I'm afraid it will be a big reshuffle for the whole country. I don't know if Miss Queen, who is young and has not been in the top position for a year, can bear it.
Of course, aside from other people's talk, the power ministers of the [One King and Two Powers] of the Tours family will definitely not have a good time now.
When Meng Na led people into the City Lord's Mansion that night, she did not encounter any resistance. Taylor Tours dismissed the guards, took off her official robes, and sat alone in the study, quietly waiting for the arrival of Her Royal Highness.
Then, in front of everyone, he frankly admitted all the crimes, and even before Meng Na presented the collected evidence, he let the shadow crowd put the shackles on him.
Naturally, Taylor Tours was directly sent to the sky prison by Her Royal Highness for covering criminals, intending to cause war, and deceiving the emperor, etc., and was separated from the position of the city lord of the town of demon town.
As for his Marquis title, since it was conferred by the previous King Angelo, Mona has no right to deprive him of it, so he still needs to wait until the official Queen's order is issued, but it doesn't matter.
As a result, the Tours family was jointly and severally punished. Not only did they have to pay a huge fine within the time limit, which was used as the activity fund for many follow-up work, but they were also subject to many restrictions, including thoroughly checking the list of family members' contacts in recent years and canceling the private army quota originally owned by the grand duke.
The most serious thing is that the current patriarch of the family, Griffith Tours, who is currently the prime minister of the kingdom, was held accountable by the queen. In addition, he was old and weak, so he could not bear the heavy responsibility. In the end, he took the initiative to submit his resignation to the council, which was approved by the queen, and resigned from the position of prime minister.
So far, three generations of veterans, Griffith Tours, who is nearly 9 years old, has completely ended his official career. In the future, in order to avoid suspicion and eliminate the negative impact caused by the chaos in the town of Mocheng, he probably can only stay in the city of courage honestly, planting flowers and plants for the rest of his life.
In fact, if Lan could follow Taylor's assumption and ruthlessly cast all the blame on him alone, Griffiths might be able to serve as prime minister for a few more years, and the Tours family would suffer less losses. It's a pity that she is a rebellious child and never listens to the arrangements of adults.
Although it sounds a bit cruel, but the officialdom and official career are like this, a mistake will cause eternal hatred, there will always be only a thin line between being a supreme minister and being ruined.
It is enough for the Tours family and Griffiths to bring the matter over with a little blood, and even retain the Grand Duke title inherited from generation to generation.
Even Lilia didn't want to push them too hard, after all, there might be a big turmoil in the kingdom.
The internal problems have been temporarily resolved, and the rest is diplomacy with the Ten Thousand Demons Mountains.
Through the secret adjustment of Wei Lisi, the middleman, things developed very smoothly.
As Walter said, Estel, the fastest demon, returned to the Mountain of Demons in person immediately, and informed the alliance of the situation here, which caused a huge shock.
It is said that a certain holy ancestor seemed to have made a secret effort. After several discussions, the monsters finally basically agreed and accepted the peace talks with the United Kingdom.
The negotiating representative, whom Wei Lisi also knew, was the legendary general who had escorted the monster girls back home, a girl from the Puppet tribe named Yiwen. She had just finished her journey home and was planning to join Walter and the other demon generals in the town of Demon Town. She happened to run into Esther who was in a hurry and was caught to do it.
The Puppet Race is a race known for its wisdom and rationality among monsters, especially Yi Wen, the Great Demon General, who is very reliable in the hearts of many races including the Three Pillars, and she herself has been dealing with matters related to His Royal Highness, so she naturally does her part.
Because the monsters were eager to welcome back the "little highness", the day of the negotiation was brought forward as much as possible, and the time was set for tomorrow.
Since monsters are not allowed to enter and leave the cities of the United Kingdom at will, the negotiation location was finally chosen in a small town [-] kilometers north of Zhenmo City, at the junction of the Wanmo Mountains and the United Kingdom.
Although little Mengna has been busy these few days, and has countless things to deal with every day, Wei Lisi has been leisurely, and finally has the opportunity to revisit the United Kingdom with a few travel companions. A famous city in the north.
The arrest warrant was canceled early in the morning, and the Internal Security Bureau heard that it was undergoing a major rectification. Those demon hunters and poachers incorporated into special forces were directly cancelled. All the shitty things they had done were revealed. Those who should be arrested should be arrested and put in prison.
Those poaching gangs entrenched inside and outside the country are naturally not cleared just this time, but with the town of Demon City, which can be called the stronghold of poachers in the United Kingdom, being wiped out in one pot, the new government headed by Lilia took follow-up actions , it must be much easier.
As for the other three forces of the underworld in Zhenmo City, Meng Na seems to have no plans to move for the time being. According to her, it is impossible for a country to completely eliminate all the dark sides. This is an unavoidable part of the composition. Even if these organizations are eliminated, other people will continue to emerge.
Therefore, as long as its behavior does not cross the moral bottom line like the poachers, it is best for the government not to tear its face completely.
Probably because of similar reasons, they were able to reach a certain degree of cooperation when they suppressed the underground black market.
Chapter 453: Chapter 81: The Goodbye Lan and the Reencounter
The weather in Zhenmo City seems to have improved a lot as the two sides reached a preliminary agreement, and the situation eased. Although the road blockade has not been lifted, but with the harassment of monsters and monsters gradually easing, and the arrival of the royal family who presided over the overall situation, the people's hearts finally gradually stabilized.
When the results of the negotiations come out, the business route will start again. This important hub city connecting the country and the northern world will probably continue to move in a good direction in the future.
Walking on the street with Ti Lisa and Xiaolong Niang, Wei Lisi plans to find Lan today.
In the past few days, Miss Lan was no less busy than Mona. Taylor was imprisoned, Griffiths stepped down, and the reputation and status of the Tours family suffered an unprecedented blow.
Although Lan was rebellious, she was still a member of the family after all. Naturally, it was impossible for her to stay out of such a big incident.
Because the information Mengna investigated proved that Lan was not involved in the family conspiracy. In addition, she took the initiative to assist Princess Mengna to eliminate the remnants of the ghost bandit group and rescued Novia from the Moon Shadow Royal Family.
Griffiths himself seems to have no problem with that.
Therefore, Lan, a little girl who has just turned 20, is now the patriarch of the Tours family and the noble Grand Duke.
I don't know whether to call it lucky or unlucky to be promoted at the cusp of this crisis, but if Lan doesn't do it, no one else is more suitable. Of course, there are other branches of the Tours family, but she is the only one in the direct blood line. one person.
Because she has inherited the position of the patriarch of the family and assumed the duties of acting as the city lord, Lan moved out of her own small house a few days ago and moved back to the city lord's mansion, where she and Mengna deal with all the complicated matters of Town Demon City.
And it was there that Willis was going.
Naturally, there was a reason for bringing Ti Lisa along.
Soon, they arrived at their destination.
Town Lord's Mansion of Town Demon City, this place has been visited by Wei Lisi recently. Although she basically doesn't take care of things, she just wanders around all day, leaving Mengna and the others to toss slowly, but there are still some important problems. Follow up and follow up.
After all, she promised Tielu that she would help resolve the matter here and bring back the source of magic power.
In order to completely eliminate the influence of Taylor staying in Town Demon City, not only the Internal Guard Bureau, but even the guards and servants in the City Lord's Mansion have been replaced a lot. The third special detachment led by Lan was transformed into the inner guard of the Town Lord Mansion in Town Demon City.
It is said that this group of people was promoted and formed by Lan himself one by one. They specialize in dealing with internal disputes and crimes among humans. Their prejudice against aliens is far less serious than other members of the Internal Security Bureau, and they are just right to hold important positions at this juncture.
Because Wei Lisi has been here many times, the guards naturally already know this girl who is a bit mysterious, but Her Royal Highness and the new city lord treat and trust her very much. With the guarantee of the lady pastor, the guards only asked a few questions about the new Tilisa she brought this time before allowing the three girls to pass.
The City Lord's Mansion was still very busy, because the basic national policy of the United Kingdom did not allow foreigners to come and go in the town at will. Even Lilia couldn't easily change this point. Naturally, it was inconvenient for Mona to let the large number of rescued slaves move around, so she had to find a place to resettle them temporarily.
The City Lord's Mansion is one of them.
So it can be said that it is overcrowded recently.
When Lan was found by asking the guards, she was in the gazebo, talking face to face with a girl with fish scale-like patterns on her bare skin, six tear moles at the corners of her eyes, and a strange color of long hair mixed with white and blue. There were also brewed tea and refreshments on the stone table.
"Huh? Why is she here..."
"Master knows this monster?"
Hearing this, Xiaolongniang turned around in surprise, and Ti Lisa immediately cast a sparkling curious, or gossip, look, but Miss Pastor just shook her head helplessly.
"Just a little bit, just pretend you don't know each other."
This monster girl who is obviously from the Mingyu Clan, Wei Lisi did have a relationship once. She was one of the members who was rescued by Miss Priest when the ghost thief group used a special method to detonate the magic power in her body.
But at that time, Wei Lisi used the identity of [Xi] to contact them with another appearance, and the voice was obviously different because of the props, so it was impossible to be recognized.
Because this Mingyu girl was treated alone, Wei Lisi was quite impressed. She didn't expect that she would be placed in the city lord's mansion, and they met again by chance.
After greeting the two girls beside her and telling them not to talk nonsense for a while, Wei Lisi led them forward, smiled and waved to the girl with ponytails who turned her gaze away after noticing the footsteps.
"Hi, I haven't seen you for a few days, do you miss me?"
After recognizing the identity of the person, Lan couldn't help showing a smile on his slightly tired face.
"So it's you. Isn't our Miss Willis leisurely traveling around the mountains and rivers? Why are you here when you have time?"
"Why, can't you come? As the city lord, you are going to distance yourself from ordinary people like us? Sigh, I didn't expect you to be such a person, Lan, sad, sad!"
"You're almost ready..."
The acting city lord couldn't bear to look directly at her and covered her face with her hands. The Mingyu girl behind her also stood up in surprise and curiosity, and carefully looked at the three pastors and misses.
"Master Lan, how many of these...?"
Hearing this, the girl with twin ponytails also reacted, nodded and said.
"Oh, just right, let me introduce you. This is Ms. Willis. It is said that she is a traveler who travels around the world without a fixed place. This is her companion, Ms. Xiaoguang, a very powerful expert. Um... As for this..."
Lan's eyes stopped on Ti Lisa for a while, but she didn't know how to speak. After all, although she had seen this blue-haired and blue-eyed girl on the arrest warrant, it had been proven to be a false identity.
Fortunately, after such a long time, the little village girl has become much smarter than before, and she can see the difficulty of acting as the city lord at a glance, and she speaks cheerfully.
"My name is Ti Lisa! I'm an ordinary person, and I don't have any great background or strength. Now I'm traveling with Miss Willis, so you don't have to pay too much attention to me~"
"I see, it's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Tilisa."
Lan smiled knowingly, then tilted her head slightly, and looked at the Mingyu girl who had changed into an elegant dress beside her. Compared with the last time, she looked much more dignified and elegant, Wei Lisi and others also turned their eyes.
Her figure is indeed very good. Although her face is still a little immature, but the flat belly set off by the slim dress still reminds Wei Lisi of the smooth touch that is still unsatisfactory. Under embarrassment, her eyes looked a little Some wandering.
"This is the daughter of the patriarch of the Mingyu Clan, Her Highness Nitila Mingyu, who was abducted and sold here by a poaching gang for some reason, and was rescued in the siege organized by Her Highness Mengna a few days ago. She has recently lived here temporarily , according to the plan, after the negotiation with Wanmo Mountain is completed, they should be sent back to their homeland."
Chapter 454: Chapter 82: Family, tribe
It turned out to be the little princess of the Mingyu Clan, no wonder...
The Mingyu Clan is also a big clan in the Ten Thousand Devils Mountains, and can even be regarded as the most powerful leader among all the amphibian monsters on land.Its branches spread all over the rivers, lakes and seas, and even extended to the endless sea in the east of the world. If you really want to say, they are not weaker than the three pillars.
It's just that its power is relatively scattered, and the main body in this part of the Wanmo Mountains is a little bit inferior after all.
Wei Lisi took another look at the eye-catching six teardrop-shaped lines on Nitila's face. Although she is indeed very powerful in her identity, to be honest, it is more or less expected.
"Let's just say that's the case, so Wei Lisi, what's the matter with you coming here to find me today?"
"Well, there are indeed some things that I want to discuss, but now you..."
The girl named Nitila is worthy of being the princess of the Mingyu Clan, she can be described as a pure heart, seeing this, she immediately smiled lightly and said.
"Since there are distinguished guests visiting, it is good for Mrs. Lan to get busy with business. I will pass on the things you mentioned just now to my mother after returning to the clan. Please don't worry about it, you and Her Highness Mengna."
"Okay, then I would like to thank Your Highness Nitila for her cooperation and understanding. I also hope that our two races can truly break through the estrangement and complete the progress across the ages."
Lan also smiled and nodded lightly. It can be seen that since her father Taylor was imprisoned for a crime, and she inherited the position of patriarch and city lord in the chaos, this girl who was originally cold and rebellious and adored martial arts has changed a lot in just a few days.
It's like a precious sword that was originally cold and hidden in the scabbard, its sharpness is not diminished, but it is no longer so aggressive.
Nitila nodded slightly to several people, and then quickly turned and left, but her eyes obviously lingered on Wei Lisi for a while, which surprised the lady pastor who was peeping.
Could it be... This is recognized? Is the disguise of [The Face of the Jade Fox] so bad?No matter how you put it, it was a semi-magic weapon, and the hair color of the clothes, including the temperament of the voice, had changed drastically at that time, so there was no reason why it could be seen through by a mediocre little girl.
Well, it must be an illusion.
Seeing the figure of the Mingyu girl disappearing into the garden path, Lan also breathed a sigh of relief, and returned to the stone bench. Wei Lisi didn't show any politeness to her, and just sat where Nitila was just now, and poured herself a new cup of tea.
Looking at the black-haired girl who was busy living by herself, and Xiaolong Niang and Ti Lisa standing beside her like attendants, Lan couldn't help shaking her head helplessly, and poured herself some tea again.
The pastor took a sip of her tea and spoke out first.
"By the way, what were you talking to her just now?"
"It's nothing, it's just a matter of business. Well, if you have something to say now, could it be that our Miss Willis is planning to fulfill your promise after seeing the dust settle in the town of Demon Town?"
promise?What promise?
oh………
Wei Lisi was stunned for a moment, and then belatedly remembered that she and Lan did seem to have a deal to help her improve the way of the sword in exchange for the assistance of the eldest daughter of the Tours family.But because of Mengna's appearance, things developed too quickly, and Lan naturally stood on their side, so that someone almost forgot about it.
"Hey, I'll talk about that later, anyway, I won't let it go, so I'll give you a new knife for the current salary..."
"All right, all right... Whatever you say is what you say. I can't beat you whoever makes Her Royal Highness the princess face you. Even if you really renege on your debt, you can only grit your teeth and swallow it in your stomach."
"Ah ha ha....What made me look like a bully? Well, I'm not joking. In fact, I came to you this time mainly to find out what happened after you went to the city lord's mansion to find Taylor that day? Did he tell you all the ins and outs of this incident?"
"Causes and consequences?"
When it came to business, Miss Lan's expression immediately became serious, and she held her smooth cheeks in thought.
"I don't know what you mean by the cause and effect, but when I went to find my father that day, I overheard it outside his study..."
Lan took some time to organize and describe the day.
It turned out that, just as Lan expected, after he proposed to know the inside story of the matter, Taylor did not hide it. The plan he said caused a fierce dispute between father and daughter due to different ideas, or Lan unilaterally reprimanded his father for being too crazy and treating human life like nothing.
Taylor, who doted on his daughter, didn't refute too much, but obviously, he wouldn't change his mind just because of Lan's advice. In other words, the lord of the Town of Demon Town had already embarked on a path of no return.
He explained his plan to Lan in detail.
Although it was desperate, Taylor Tours did not fall into madness, and Lan was his backer for the Tours family.
This whole matter, Taylor deliberately avoided her daughter and carried it out quietly. In addition, Lan usually lived alone outside, so there was sufficient evidence and reason to break away from this matter.
Now the situation has become a foregone conclusion, regardless of success or failure, Lan is safe.
