Inside the office.
Louis looked at Beatrice. At this time, his eldest wife was rubbing her eyebrows in distress and said:
"Seeing that we are about to get engaged, so many things have happened."
Louis would like to remind you of the connection.
But it was impossible for him to directly tell Beatrice that "the Marquis of York will be poisoned in the future" to prove that there was a mastermind behind it.
So he said: "I have a hunch that there will be trouble at our engagement party."
Beatrice first took a look at the secret guard’s report:
"These staff members are not powerful professionals. It is easy to investigate them using the secret guard's methods."
Louis nodded.
You can guess it. It is probably some unique method of extorting confessions from the mysterious side of Qunxing.
He said: "Did anyone instruct you?"
Beatrice shook her head: "The traces should have been cleared. They naturally forgot about these things."
Louis hesitated: "It's just that I don't understand why they created the dust explosion."
Beatrice's eyes were as deep as water, and she smiled softly and said:
"I guessed it, just a bunch of rats."
When Louis looked at her, she stopped smiling and said:
"Let me handle this matter. It seems that it has been inconvenient for my father to take action in recent years. Someone has an idea in mind."
"If you really want to help me, just take our Olivia for a walk. She's been a little... well, too lively lately."
Louis nodded.
This was the Beatrice he was familiar with.
Be serious about your work, be strict with yourself, and live an extremely regular life.
Not to mention Louis, even Olivia has never opened the back door for her sister.
When Olivia ran away from home, a normal person would have chased her away by herself.
But she arranged for the royal guards to deal with it and continued to work by herself, putting the interests of the empire first.
It is impossible to say that she is not worried about Olivia.
I heard that she used a rare treasure that she liked very much in exchange for some potion ingredients to treat the little swan.
Even in the original timeline, she was still arranging backup plans for Little Swan when she was about to die. It can be said that she hurt Olivia badly.
But as a leader, she must exercise restraint, which is an essential quality for a prison princess.
Then Louis said:
"Okay, then I will be your backup and take little Olivia for a walk in the outer city."
"That would be a big help."
Olivia was so clingy during this period that Beatrice felt like she didn't have enough time.
If she continues like this, dealing with official business of the empire, upgrading her professional level, secretly guarding intelligence... all these things are piled together, and she will have to work overtime again.
Looking at Louis's leaving figure, the princess put her hands on her face and showed an unconcealable smile.
"Your Highness seems very happy?"
In the shadows, the female officer slowly walked out, her face as solemn as iron.
"Of course, I am even more glad that I chose him."
After getting up and standing at the window, Beatrice turned around when she saw Louis getting on the carriage, her reserved social smile restored on her face:
"Akane, how's the situation with Dark Crow?"
The cold-faced female officer said: "The Raven Guard has cleared away the tide of living corpses in the deepest part of the cave. We have calculated the data, and it does not match the number of missing people in recent years."
"Among those who have been confirmed, there are 21 sealed adventurers, 43 regular adventure groups, and a total of 23,211 scattered people."
"Except for our people, more than half of them come from surrounding countries, including Amn's traveling merchant team, the Argonians from the Dragon Coast, and the elves from the High Forest..."
Beatrice narrowed her eyes and raised the corners of her mouth slightly:
"The Rudelson Organization, their king was killed by us, and we can't forget it."
"Are they deliberately trying to test our truth, or... is someone giving them confidence behind their backs?"
The female officer behind her said in a deep voice: "Are we going to clean them up?"
Beatrice thought for a moment and then said: "No, the Rudelson organization is just a group of bait thrown out."
"That Mad King is just a poor guy who was taken advantage of. The dark side of the God of Love is a bit troublesome. It's hard to deal with a demigod who has no worries."
She looked up out the window.
The Tino River flows through the city day and night, and merges into the Falling Star Sea in the distance. Looking at the waves of the river, she chuckled:
"The Sun Knight of the Setting Sun Church is hunting down Rudelson's remnants recently?"
The female officer Akane nodded.
Beatrice smiled: "Ask the secret guard to contact our Rat Road. The information he needs about Rudelson is contracted by us at Unser."
"Contact the Church of the God of Glory and Justice again. It's the end of the year and I heard that their performance in fighting evil organizations is not enough."
"Let the prime minister arrange someone to invite the pope with the engagement invitation."
"Let the civil servants handle the discussion later."
She blinked and said with a bad smile:
"Good will triumph over evil, won't it?"
When Akane behind her heard this, a cruel smile appeared on her face.
Revenge does not necessarily require taking action yourself.
Just achieve the purpose.
…
The next day.
Olivia, who was curled up in a ball on the bed, suddenly felt the weightlessness of falling off a cliff in her sleep.
In panic, she woke up and found her butt hitting the mattress.
She was groping around in a daze, like a cat.
"Your Highness~"
Lumi's extremely kind voice came, with a hint of gritted teeth.
The little swan shuddered and suddenly woke up.
"I really didn't stay up late reading the magic book last night!"
Before she dared to look up at Lumi's expression, a mirror stood directly in front of her face.
He lowered his head and looked at the dark circles under his eyes in the mirror.
He raised his head and looked at the dark face of the head maid.
The little swan looked sideways and vertically, feeling like something was going to happen.
She won’t be covered with a quilt directly, so ask her to catch up on her sleep!
"Lumi, I want to go out!"
The little swan held onto the chief maid's sleeve pitifully.
Obviously, after the incident of running away with a bucket in the Dragon Bone Prairie, the head maid, who was stressed out, escalated her surveillance of the little swan.
These days, Olivia can see the face of her maid when she opens the door.
When you open the window, you can see Lumi hanging upside down outside the window.
Even when I was about to go out to the bathroom in the middle of the night, I could see Lumi squirming in the shadows.
sad!
Little Swan ran away from home, and after accepting Sister Wang's compliments, she returned to the palace and encountered the maid's growing pains.
In the past, my health was not good and I couldn't go out to play in the palace. There was nothing I could do.
Now that we have spent so much money to solve the curse, and we still can't get out, isn't it just in vain?
So much so that after hearing that Louis had promised Sister Wang to take her out to play, she was so excited that she wanted to jump up and hit him on the knee.
"Well done, Louis, that was a big help!"
Youdao means that if you have something to do with Louis, if there is nothing to do, you will confuse the country.
At least in this matter, she loved this guy miserably.
Then last night, she was so excited that she read the magic book for most of the night, thinking about showing off her skills in front of everyone, and successfully lost sleep.
Anxious.
She was anxious.
If Rumi thought she needed a good night's sleep and forbade her to go out today, she would really go crazy.
"Dong dong dong~"
There was a knock on the door outside the bedroom.
"Your Highness Olivia, Lord Lumi, and His Highness Louis are waiting downstairs."
Little Swan's eyes lit up and he put his hands on his hips:
"Humph, Louis is here to see me. I want to go downstairs."
After she finished speaking, she felt humiliated.
Unexpectedly, one day I would need to borrow the tiger skin from Huo Kingdom.
It hurts, it hurts so much!
