The voice that had been absent for seven years echoed in his ears. Wright couldn't wait to raise his head and look in the direction where the voice came from.
Although the person in front of him is not wearing the iconic gorgeous attire, and his appearance has not changed due to the passage of time like a normal person, Wright's memory, reason and intuition all told him that the person standing in front of him is the Empire. The regent - Lecco!
"King?!" Wright's body was shaking with excitement, "You finally... you finally..."
An stretched out his index finger and made a silent gesture: "Don't make any noise."
Wright immediately shut up and quickly "figured it out":
The king's return to the empire is definitely a top priority and will definitely be announced to the people of the entire empire. Since no news has been heard so far, it means that the king has returned secretly.
Although it seems a bit illogical, Wang certainly has a deep meaning in doing this!
Considering the current situation of the empire, maybe the king just wants to catch the evil leader who is hiding behind the scenes and has committed many crimes!
As early as in the village, Wright understood that since the person who deceived him could tell so many secrets of the empire, the person behind it must be in a high position. If you want to move such a person, there will undoubtedly be many constraints on the surface.
It is the most reasonable choice to first investigate in secret to find evidence, and then expose the criminal's true face to the public.
Thinking of this, Wright realized that he was now a sinner and lowered his head again.
Putting a hand on Wright's shoulder, An said, "Didn't you hear what I asked just now? What's your crime?"
"You leave your humble duty without permission and make a big mistake!"
Wright was already aware of something fishy about the former guard captain's imprisonment, but he didn't have time to investigate in detail. After learning from Floya that the former guard captain died in prison, he placed the blame on himself.
It was he who believed the enemy's lies and gave them the opportunity to kill and silence him.
Of course, Wright would not think that it was Xiuen who killed the former guard captain. In his opinion, the enemy should have taken advantage of Xiuen when he was on duty, and Xiuen foolishly followed the enemy's plan to deceive him. The subsequent actions bear the responsibility.
He believes that Xiu En cannot bear this fault alone.
"The big mistake is my fault, please give Xiu En a free hand!"
Wright said this and was about to kowtow, but An An firmly held his shoulders and prevented him from moving.
An Liao looked at Floya helplessly: "Can you tell all the facts clearly?"
"My subordinates believe that this matter contains secrets, and it is not appropriate to confess all the information..." Froya, who knelt down when An spoke for the first time, sounded very formal, like a military attache who had served for a long time. Wright had never seen her look like this before. Have spoken.
But Froya's next sentence ruined this feeling.
"The chief has also expressed no objection to the matter."
Froya's tone did not change, but it gave Wright the feeling that she was going to have someone to support her even if she died.
"You two have worked hard on this trip, how can I blame you." An laughed and let go of his hand, "Everyone, get up. Since you don't understand the whole story, let me explain it."
"This..." Wright was flattered.
Froya stood up quickly as if nothing was wrong. If her expression hadn't remained serious, she would have acted like a child acting out in front of her elders.
"Get up first." An repeated.
Wright also knew that the Imperial Regent never had the airs he should have when treating his subordinates in private, so he didn't hold on too much.
"yes."
After Leiter had finished tidying up his clothes, An turned around.
"The death of the former guard captain was quite strange, and it was not his fault. Xiu En has confessed everything he knew. Just for the sake of safety, the guard team temporarily protected him in place. Although what you have done is inappropriate, But the weighing of right and wrong should be left to hindsight, let alone for the time being.”
"...I understand the humble position."
Seeing Wright's tangled expression, An picked up a letter on the table and looked sullen: "You devised a plan to protect the residents of an entire village from disaster and captured all the gangsters. Do you still want me to blame you? Before you Do you think I don’t know the difference between right and wrong?”
"Don't dare!" Wright shook his head quickly.
"Then tell me what you know first." He changed his face to a smile, sat down on the sofa, and pointed to the sofa on the other side.
Floya pushed Wright over. She climbed over the sofa lightly from behind. Seeing Wright's restrained expression, she pushed him to sit down again.
Seeing An waiting for his explanation with a smile on his face, Wright quickly adjusted himself and told what he knew. The objective things were basically consistent with what Xiu En said. As An listened, she noticed that Wright was hesitant to speak.
"What do you want to say?" An's eyes were encouraging.
"...It's the enemy's intention." Wright's eyes became firm.
Antilet said: "They are planning to control the empire through you?"
Wright's eyes widened.
Seeing that there was no surprise on Froya's face, he said with relief: "You really understand everything clearly."
The enemy planned to disguise him as the regent. This was the real boulder in Wright's heart and the reason why he was so troubled just now.
Lecco is the greatest king of the empire and the most irreplaceable king.
This is a fact recognized by the Empire.
As one of those people who can be called a believer, even if it is the enemy's plan, Wright feels that he must be blamed for his death!
"Think you're inadequate?" An suddenly said.
Wright said without hesitation: "Of course! You are the greatest ruler, and no one is qualified to replace you!"
Ann looked at Floya.
Floya nodded imperceptibly through the shaking of her body.
Eyes lowered, An sat up and leaned on the back of the sofa: "Then, what do you think of Liliana?"
Wright and Floya were shocked at the same time. They realized that the person who asked the question was angry.
Froya pursed her lips, feeling a little annoyed.
Wright breathed a long sigh of relief, adjusted his state, and then said seriously: "Her Royal Highness is a qualified princess. With the assistance of Leonhardt, Ion, and Alvin, Her Royal Highness It is enough to make the entire empire run smoothly. Moreover, His Highness is still young and his future achievements are difficult to predict. Perhaps in the future His Highness will be able to achieve great achievements that are no less than yours!"
An nodded, noncommittal.
Wright gritted his teeth and continued: "But the empire is facing a huge crisis right now. Some people dare to seek the status of the king, and are bold enough to commit crimes that offend the royal family. After all, Her Royal Highness has little experience, and maintaining the operation of the empire is already tiring enough. , it is difficult to allocate enough time and energy to solve such a major issue!”
An opened her eyes and looked at Wright: "Sharp words... Do you want me to remind you that when Lecco served as regent, he was about the same age as Liliana now."
"The empire was in turmoil back then, and your ability to turn the tide back was an unprecedented achievement! King, now that the empire is so strong, we dare not bet on a second miracle! Only when the king returns to the empire can we suppress those villains with evil intentions!" Wright said tightly! Clenched fists.
Perhaps the empire's crisis can be solved by another savior who emerges from nowhere, but the empire's current glory is built with Lecco as its backbone. If the person who comes forward to solve the problem is not Lecco, even if the crisis is finally eliminated, the empire will have a long future in the future. The risks to be faced within a period of time are still not small——
The reason why the surrounding countries have been relatively stable in recent years is because Leco shocked them enough back then, and they have never really given up their plan to take a piece of meat from the rich and fertile empire!
