Chapter 540: Lan Qi turned out to be the national division's line
Lan Qi and the Queen sat on both sides of the exquisitely carved dining table. The silver candlestick looked noble and solemn in the center of the table. There was no candle on the top, and the light outside the window was also very dim. It was obviously noon, but there was no color reflected in the surroundings. On the vessel, the air had a hint of rainy haze.
“Thank you, Your Majesty Keshia.”
Lanchi thanked the Queen.
After the two had a brief exchange before the meal, the table became quiet again for a long time. The waiter began to serve dishes one after another. While the two were thinking, they continued to eat with etiquette.
Until the clock unknowingly turned a small half circle, lunch time passed, and the waiters cleaned the table for them as before the meal.
Queen Keshia looked out the window at the courtyard where the rain was about to fall, and was silent for a moment.
“To be honest, I'm scared of you because no one can figure you out.”
She said frankly, without looking at Lan Qi,
"I heard your speech yesterday. It was great. To be honest, I was inspired by you, but I am also more scared. I am afraid that letting you take office is a wrong decision."
Ranchi asked.
When Lan Qi heard Keshia's words, he seemed to remember the ridiculous confrontation in the morning.
Queen Kessia knew very well what happened in the meeting of the House of Lords before Ranchi came today. If Wilford and Duke Moretti had not maintained a high degree of restraint, the differences and conflicts in the parliament might have further intensified until Unable to clean up, civil unrest arose.
“I'm worried about your position in Parliament.”
Even if she is willing to support the new prime minister, she is only a symbol of power in the hearts of the people. She does not have much real power to influence the parliament. She can only persuade people who may help the prime minister through some interpersonal relationships.
She added.
Getting such assurance from Lan Qi only made her feel extremely relieved for a moment.
Queen Keshia did not respond.
Objectively speaking, she actually felt that the man in front of her was far less scary than the Horning Empire. This was a question without any suspense.
She didn't know whether she should say these words to Ranch Wilford. She couldn't find a topic, so she could only talk about what was in her heart.
“Put it another way, I am your staunch supporter and will do my best to fight for you against the Horning Empire. Do you still think I'm scary?”
"No."
“In your opinion, who is more terrifying, me or the Horning Empire?”
“They wanted to get rid of the busker and replace him with his monkey.”
Queen Keshia closed her eyes and shook her head.
Queen Keshia scolded.
But he was right in front of her. If this man was an enemy, she would also feel uneasy from the bottom of her heart.
He said with some dissatisfaction.
Lanqi asked again.
“Watch your words, Sir Wilford, Duke Moretti is my good friend.”
She was surprised that Ranchi would speak wildly at this moment and express his thoughts frankly. It seemed that he was indeed very emotional towards Duke Moretti.
Hearing this, Lan Qi lowered his head and was speechless for a long time.
"Although I don't know the specific communication process between you and Duke Moretti this morning, I believe that you are all motivated by the idea of better for the Paulante Empire. I should not interfere in the dispute between you, let alone I can't tell you what's right or wrong, I just know that when I hear others say bad things about my friends, I will never agree with them and I need to correct them.”
Queen Kexia began to worry that she had said the wrong thing, explaining or making a statement.
“Only I am not needed.”
Lan Qi said disappointedly.
This suddenly made Queen Keshia worried again.
“Perhaps you scare people. No one knows what your next decision will be, or even what kind of words you will say.”
Seeing the slightly depressed Lan Qi, Keshia's tone softened a lot.
Cat boss: “???”
It feels like I have learned new tea ceremony skills.
Sometimes expressing dissatisfaction directly, a method that seems not even low-grade green tea, can actively induce the other party to rebuke, thus putting on a victim posture and making the other party wonder who is at fault.
Rather than continuing to question Ranchi, Princess Keshia may have begun to think more about "whether Duke Moretti has gone too far." This is not a low-level green tea method, but a return to nature that combines advancement as retreat and retreat as advancement. Compared with innocence, he even seems to be very upright.
As they talked, their relationship became closer.
Ranchi was isolated and helpless in the House of Lords during the war, but Princess Kesia's attitude was also clear, and she was willing to trust the Prime Minister.
The ensuing conversation between the two touched on many topics about the war and the future of the country. Queen Kessia expressed her views in a thoughtful way, while Ranchi showed his leadership and loyalty to the empire. The Queen expressed her gratitude to Ranchi. The decision raised a lot of questions, but it also came with satisfaction from Lanci's answers.
Although the status of the two people is different, the subtle mutual understanding and respect between them begins to become more and more solid.
Until finally, the agreed lunch time is coming to an end.
Lanci glanced at his watch and politely signaled to Her Majesty the Queen that he needed to go about his work.
“I'm sorry, Mr. Wilford, it took up a lot of time when you should have rested.”
Queen Kexia suddenly realized that time had passed so fast.
However, Lan Qi has no intention of leaving in a hurry. If the Queen still has questions, he will give priority to answering them until Her Majesty the Queen is satisfied.
“I actually don't see any hope of winning. Maybe in more than a month, the Horning Empire will enter Helsalem.”
Queen Kexia took a deep breath and pointed out the most critical issue to the point,
“What do you think the odds are now?”
Although no one can really answer it, she believes that it is not just her. This is also the question that the people of the Paulant Empire are most concerned about.
She just wanted to hear what Wilford was thinking, maybe he could give herself a little more confidence.
Even if he lied to her, as a militant, he should exaggerate his chances of winning as much as possible.
“0.”
Lanchi replied.
Queen Kesia seemed shocked by Lanqi's honesty.
At least he should say one percent, right?
However, Queen Kesia could not see the slightest hint of lying in Lan Qi's eyes.
She wanted to ask.
Since you are the one who most firmly believes that there is no chance of winning, why do you still rush to go against the wind?
"Are you serious?"
These were the only words that finally came out of Queen Kesia's mouth.
She was unable to empathize with the Prime Minister's psychology at this moment and could only stare into his emerald green eyes.
She couldn't tell whether it was a clear lake or a bottomless pool, but she accidentally looked at him for a long time and forgot to take her eyes away.
"Please believe me. There is a saying that goes like this, 'When you are ready to sacrifice yourself, you are more likely to sacrifice others.' Fighting against the Horning Empire may cause a lot of sacrifices, but until then, I have done my best Sacrificing my own preparations, I will open up a chance of victory for you at all costs, Your Lady Queen.”
Lanchi was like a knight swearing an oath to the queen at this moment.
But he is different from ordinary steadfast and brave knights.
It is a vast loneliness and a slight sense of vulnerability.
For some reason, Kexia always felt that in front of this man, she did not look like a constitutional emperor with a noble status, but a wise king with absolute imperial power.
This is a huge expectation, and it is also a kind of trust that I entrust my back to her.
Made her want to protect this man and support him in completing his heroic and great deeds.
"I see."
Queen Keshia pondered, and finally nodded firmly.
Lanchi then said a brief farewell to Queen Kesia, and said that he would come to see her again. After receiving Queen Kesia's promise, he left Salem Palace and entered the next itinerary.
It's hard to comment on Boss Cat.
Another human being who has not escaped Lanci's hypnosis. After a few more sessions, he may be able to let Lanci go as he pleases.
Those people outside the Shadow World, as well as the Horning Empire and the Blood Tribe opposite may not yet realize the seriousness of the problem.
Even the cat boss understands that this is a global strategic hegemony type of shadow world, not a character favorability strategy type of shadow world!
You look like a disaster to the country!
