Section 226 is similar
Beller met Robin and Ellenn at the temporary palace, the mansion of the former Regent. To be specific, he met Robin first (it happened to be a coincidence that Robin was waiting for news about Beller here), and then met Prime Minister Ellenn with Robin's support.
Even an old guy like Ellen clearly showed a "big breath of relief" when he saw Berel appearing intact in front of him.
"General Belle, it's really good that you're fine..." Ailin immediately noticed that Belle was a little unusual at this moment - because Belle clamped his legs at this time, and his movements in his whole body were unnatural. "What's wrong with you? Are you injured? What happened to you last night?"
"A group of evil god believers actually launched an assassination," Beller admitted this fact generously. When he said this, he seemed to have triggered a wound. Because of the pain, the muscles on his face twitched. "I finally rushed out a bloody path, and I was lucky enough to meet a 'good man' intake, and I'm only back now."
When speaking the word "good-hearted person", Beller not only had an extra accentuated tone, but also had a three-point self-deprecating voice in his voice.
"Are you injured?" Elinn did not notice the subtlety of Berel's words. However, he was happy to find that there was not much dissatisfaction in Berel's words - this was much better than he expected.
"Injured for some reason during this escape..." As he spoke, Beller's face twitched again. "But it's better than losing his life."
Next is a routine conversation. In short, the next step was decided. Due to injury, Beller will rest in Eagle City for seven or eight days before starting the negotiation. Of course, on the other hand, Ellenn also assured Beller that Eagle City will "completely and forever solve this hidden cancer."
So many things happened this day. At dusk, Beller returned to his previous residence. Robin helped Beller all the way back, so he naturally discovered where Beller was injured. Of course, Robin was not a fool. He kept going back to his residence and asked for this question when there was no one around.
"Sir, what happened last night?"
"I'm back alive, isn't that enough?" Berel replied.
"Where are you during this period? You must know that we are all anxious. If you have a three-length and two-length shortness, then what can we do..."
"Oh." Berel sighed in a rare manner, but did not answer. At this time, guards came outside to report that the doctor sent by Prime Minister Alinen had arrived.
It must be said that Elinn's movements were indeed fast enough. When Beller came back, the doctor he sent arrived. The doctor was about sixty years old and looked like a famous doctor at first sight. Robin walked out of the room and left the doctor alone with Beller, while he was outside the room.
This room is not the kind of tightly soundproofed. Even if Robin didn't deliberately stick to the door and eavesdrop on it, the sound still leaked out of the crack of the door and reached his ears.
"Ah... Lord Belle, judging from this injury, I have to say that this was not an accident, it should be an intentional injury... I have to say that fortunately this blow is not strong enough, otherwise..."
"General... the situation is not bad... Your injury is not very serious, and you can recover in five or six days after applying the medicine... But these days, it is best not to touch women..."
"The medicine? The medicine does not need to be replaced. Your injury is not too serious. Besides, you have helped you with some bloodletting treatment. By the way, by the way, in order to keep the wound clean during this period, you need to take a bath, and take a careful bath..."
After a long time, the doctor left and went out and entered Beller's room again.
"Robin, what's going on outside? I mean the safety side."
"General, they sent you a whole team of soldiers. I believe that what happened last night would never happen again. General, I'm sorry." Robin said a little depressedly. "We actually... were useless at all yesterday."
Yesterday, the assassin used some kind of drug, which had a strong hypnotic effect, which made all guards, including Robin, unable to protect Berel. This was the biggest dereliction of duty for the guards.
"I was too negligent yesterday." Berel sighed. "It's not your fault. You have discovered the problem, but I didn't notice it. What happened after I escaped?"
Robin told about what happened last night. The process was completely beyond Berel's expectations: the assassins' target was Belle, and they were not interested in others at all. Since everyone was unable to move because of the drug, they didn't care at all. Instead, the assassin killed by Berel attracted attention - this was because a pedestrian who was out late at night accidentally passed by here, saw the body and immediately issued an alarm.
As mentioned earlier, some nobles' nightlife is actually quite late. Although there are no pedestrians on the street, as long as someone issues an alarm, it is not difficult to gather a group of people in the noble area of Eagle City. Soon, official personnel rushed over and dragged a group of unconscious people out of the house. Then everything went naturally - after discovering that Beller was missing in attack, the forces of all parties immediately mobilized urgently. After Robin regained consciousness, he stayed at the temporary palace, and then Beller suddenly appeared.
"General, what happened to you last night?" Robin asked back after saying everything he knew.
"Well, something happened." Belle said. "I was lucky that I was not fascinated at the first time, so I escaped in time. Then I accidentally met someone..." Belle said lightly. "A person I had originally planned to meet. With her help, I came back safely." He looked down, "Maybe it's not safe... But no matter what, it's worth it!"
"Wonderful for money? General, your injury..."
"Oh, Robin, do you know, I only now know how wise my decision is." Berel said thoughtfully. "I really admire it."
“What decision?”
"I didn't marry myself," said Beller. "If every woman was like that, I think men in the world would make the same decisions as me."
"General?" Robin heard that the monk Zhang Er was confused. "Who did you meet?"
"Robin, do you remember our original plan? It's the one I told you last time?"
"Remember." Robin will not forget this. "The best strategy is to legally obtain Groney's royal power in the marriage of the little queen. It is the most beneficial result for our country... But you also said that the possibility is too low, and we can only try our best to strive for it, but we cannot have any hope for it."
"That's right." Berel replied. "In fact, I don't think any prince or prince can have the ability to conquer that little girl. Even if we really sign a marriage contract, we may not be able to seize the royal power. However, even if we just sign a marriage contract, it will be an extremely favorable result for our country. At least in the next generation, the war between our two countries will have the nature of a "civil war" and will become our own people and beat our own people." He smiled mockingly. "At least, it can ensure that His Majesty the King's blood descendants... can control the two countries."
"Zhongce is to take advantage of this coalition opportunity... to consume the power of Groone and the barbarians as much as possible. Then use the loopholes in our agreement to provoke war... to use this favorable time to ced a suitable territory from Groone..."
Berel sighed, leaned back, and lay on his bed (he had been sitting on his bed before), "Man is not as good as God is..." he sighed.
"What's wrong, General?" Robin keenly realized that his General had already known something.
"This battle is probably a troublesome," said Beller. "It is probably a war without any room for water... I would be grateful if I can't lose. I have to say that I consume Groney's strength and retain my own strength... There is no way to use such tricks. Because if you are not careful, it would be a disastrous defeat!"
"General, but... this is just a fight..." Robin actually wanted to say that this invasion seemed much easier to deal with than the last invasion, but in the end he still didn't say it.
"And we probably misread the Ashu Rufate," Berel continued. "I'm afraid I've miscalculated a lot."
"What? General, you mean, that Ashu Rufate..." Robin said hesitantly. "The key to the matter is not him?"
"No, the key to the matter is him," replied Beller. "But I'm afraid I miscalculated his motivation."
"Didn't you say that he has ambition to get involved in the throne?"
"I'm afraid this speculation is not true," said Beller. "Like all the speculations we used to speculate... I'm afraid it's not true. It's no wonder. Do you remember the last time we met Ash Rufate? The time in Mir City? Do you think that man seemed to be obsessed with fame and fortune? At that time, I remembered that I proposed a good condition... a title of an earl and a city's territory. For a mercenary, it should be a very worthwhile deal. No, this can be said to be a one-step success!"
Robin slowly recalled this detail. By the way, at that time, Ashu Rufate seemed... not caring about the high-ranking official Xianlu.
"There can be two explanations for this, one is that this person is indifferent to fame and fortune, and the other is that this person is extremely ambitious... I thought it was the latter at first." Berel pondered. "I'm worried... this person is probably really a person who is separated from the times. Just like me." His last sentence was too light, even Robin couldn't hear it.
