Chapter 366: Letter

"Smart choice." Ashu Rufat said softly.

"Well, he sent a guy with a very good eloquence as his envoy." Rotia continued. "Essin became the duke, and he chose a fief as he wished... In addition, he would become the commander of the Guards and the king's military adviser. Very generous, isn't he?"

"Where are the others?"

"Baranka was named Earl... Haha, and he had promised him to guard the White Fort. Ah, he has been a squad in charge from now on. After glory and wealth, it is naturally no problem. Berel... has received a lot of honorary titles and some bonuses, but it is already enough for him. Pari is a little bit worse, but he was finally comforted and promised to become the governor of the city of Neustria. As for you..." Rotia said in an ambiguous tone.

"What did he promise me?" Ashu Rufate asked.

"Give you a real-time Count territory." Rotia laughed. "In addition, there is another promise. If you marry the little queen, you will be accepted as a member of the royal family and be named Prince. It's really smart." She sighed. "Prince Boer... No, the king is still very good."

Among the group of military generals promoted by the little queen, Berel was a foreigner, while Parry did not have a high evaluation (because he had several consecutive tricks), and the two were not concerned about it for the time being. But the other two had a deep meaning. Essin had a history of betrayal and was destined not to be trusted by the little girl unconditionally, so he was promised to be the high-ranking official of the Eagle Falcon City to be held by his side in order to win over. Baranka was the first to support the queen in the mutiny, so he was placed in the White Fort far away from the royal city as a guard. As for Ashrufate, everyone thought he was the little girl's confidant (people with inside information even knew it was not just a confidant). So although he was named Prince, he actually deprived of military power in disguise.

But if these hidden ideas are not considered, then anyone must admit that the reward of this new king is absolutely generous and coveted. Especially Ashu Rufate, who can even become the second heir to the throne. Even if this accident did not happen and the little girl would be rewarded, she would not be able to reward him more.

"What do they say about this reward?" Ashu Rufate asked.

"Nothing said. Everyone is waiting for your statement." Rotia said. "It seems that everyone is afraid of you."

"Then, they will always react to the special envoy's promise, right?"

"Well, it's almost the same as looking at the cat smoked fish on the oven." Rotia smiled contemptuously. "I was so greedy, but I was afraid of the fire and did not dare to stretch out my claws."

"The key is not them," said Ashu Rufate. "But... our Queen herself. It doesn't matter what these rewards are. At least, Her Majesty the Queen can also give the same reward."

"But you can't deny that the king took the lead in this way."

"Yes, but the weak side always promises greater discounts and rewards, but in fact, people still like to join the powerful side."

"Well, I just believe you can control everything." Rortiya sighed. "I can hardly believe now that you have destroyed so many Chaos Legions and seized White Castle. But... you are indeed trustworthy in terms of ability, but on the other hand... you are a complete coward."

"Why do you say that?" Ashu Rufat asked. Speaking of which, it seems that Rotia had talked about such topics before, but none of them were as intense as it is now.

"I'm leaving." Rotia suddenly changed the topic. "Maybe... I will never come back from now on." She sighed. "It's a pity to say that it took countless efforts and efforts, and finally succeeded, but it seemed... it seemed like I had to let go."

Asu Ruffat had already known from the little girl that Rotia was about to get married (and to a distance). So he didn't express much about her sigh. Rotia did not mention her partner, so he didn't ask too much (although you can tell if you just need to inquire about this matter). As for Lalia, although such a female guard is very useful, it is not irreplaceable. In fact, the most important reason for choosing Lalia was that he was worried that Byron would take risks - no matter what, the duke had been in the city of Hawks for so many years, and it was possible to leave a few secret tricks. However, later facts proved that Byron did not consider this choice too much.

"Well, although you may not know yet... but to be honest, after you left, your two fiancées and I were a little...unpleasant."

"Not very pleasant?" Ashu Rufate was slightly surprised, because he felt that the two sides were completely unrelated and had no conflict of interest. How could they be unhappy?

"To be honest, I plan to bluff them and let them give up their engagement with you." Rotia said bluntly. This approach is undoubtedly extremely arrogant and excessive, but she said it in such a direct way that Eshu Rufate couldn't recover for a while. "Because I think they are not suitable for you."

"Huh?" Ashu Rufate couldn't come back to his senses, so he even forgot that he should get angry.

"Of course, I didn't plan to do it too much, just wanted to find a group of people to block them in an alley and threaten them. But unfortunately, they were very powerful. My subordinates of a large group were directly deposed by them. So I went to find Lalia for help. Of course, I didn't want to hurt them, I just wanted to threaten them... To be honest, I just bet on a bet that there is not such a big tacit understanding between them and you. In fact, I really didn't expect that the person named Xingke was so strong."

"Is she strong?" Ashu Rufate said in a voice that he could only hear.

"Okay, things almost broke out of my control... Fortunately, nothing unlucky happened..." Rotia continued, but this time, Ashu Rufate interrupted her.

"Why tell me this?" Ashu Rufate had already sensed a trace of ominousness from the content of Rotia's speech and tone of his speech.

"Well, maybe you don't know yet. When the city of Niustria was attacked by the Chaos Legion...the two of them were also beside our Queen...It was a melee in fire, we retreated from an authentic tunnel. Lalia and the Queen of Star Carving. Later, Lalia followed, and Star Carving... never followed again. Afterwards, there was only a ruin behind the fire..."

She looked at Ashu Rufate, who maintained a terrifying silence.

"...I wanted to notify you at that time, but because... well, it was a lot of trouble anyway, many people died, fighting, search and rescue, and some other messy things. And that damn magic communication... There was no magician in the city of Newestria who was in charge of magic communication... so this matter was delayed. Later, Xingjian fell ill at the same time as Her Majesty the Queen when he was in Gaohua City - but his condition recovered very slowly, and it was only a little better recently..."

She talked a lot. This was not because she was naturally long-winded, but an instinctive conversation technique. People always use this method when talking about topics they don’t want to mention, confusing a few truly meaningful sentences into countless nonsense.

"Where is Xingjian?" Ashu Rufate stopped Rotia from continuing.

"Come over there...the second room. She is a patient, so there are two maids taking care of..." Rotia sighed. "Okay, I admit that I didn't like them in the past because they were not worthy of you at all. But now I have no position to say such things. So, make your own decision."

Ashurufat hurriedly left, and Rotia looked at his departure back and sighed again. But her affairs were not over yet, so she walked into the room.

As mentioned earlier, due to the orders of the little girl, there is no one here. The reason why Rotia was able to come in was because she was the queen's "temporary tutor". This position is quite subtle. Although she does not have any theoretical power, she can partially ignore the orders issued by the queen. After all, theoretically, a tutor has the power to let the queen do homework (or take some courses that the queen doesn't like). This "teacher's natural power" is transformed into reality, that is, Rotia's actions are very free and are usually not bound by anyone - including the queen herself. For example, the order that the little girl does not allow others to disturb at this time is invalid for Rotia.

"Rotia?" The little girl saw the person coming in. "What's the matter?" she asked.

"Someone asked me to send a letter to His Majesty." Rotia smiled. "Acquaintance."

"Acquaintance?" the little girl asked in confusion. At this moment, who would send her a letter? And it was written by Rotia.

If the little girl is not wrong, the entire palace officials seem to have no good feelings for Rotia. This feeling is easy to understand: a lowly prostitute who has become a queen's teacher can enter and exit the palace without restraint. This is a difficult thing for anyone with conservative thoughts.

"Mother-in-law." Rotia said, sighing at the same time. She took out the letter and handed it to the little girl.

The mother-in-law is an old man in the palace. It is said that she was once the lover of the little girl's grandfather, but for some reason she did not become the king's side room, but she became a transcendent existence in the palace. She was definitely the same love for the little girl as her grandmother for her granddaughter.

When the palace was destroyed due to Byron's coup, the little girl transferred to the temporary palace to form her palace, the little girl was almost taken care of by her mother-in-law.

"She..." The little girl had already reached out to receive the letter, but after hearing the word "Mother-in-law", she retracted her hand as if she was burned. Yes, the mother-in-law stayed in the palace of Eagle City, so she now undoubtedly is with her brother (it is obvious that Prince Boer would not be able to do anything to her). The mother-in-law wrote the letter... What does this mean?

In all the time in the past, my mother-in-law never participated in political affairs. But at this time... this time...

The little girl's eyes stared at the letter in Rotia's hand. The envelope was pink - although it was actually very ordinary paper, the little girl's eyes at this moment were as dangerous as a soldering iron.

Scardra, Ellenn, and her brother...they's doing it has hurt her heart, but if you add your mother-in-law now...

If the mother-in-law tries to convince her to give up the throne and give in... what should she do? She suddenly felt that many things would never be saved by picking up this letter. No matter what result she ended up with this matter, many things would be irreversible between her and those she loved and trusted (of course not including Ashu Rufate).
