Chapter 42 This woman’s ambition has grown!
Hetty was panting heavily, and she had obviously jogged all the way back. Seeing her like this, Sirius also frowned.
Liz? If he didn't mention this person... he felt like he had almost forgotten this former maid in black stockings.
But now, he doesn't seem to have the energy to care about other people's affairs, and according to Hannah's "protective" style, it doesn't seem like he can go to Liz.
Of course, in order to pretend to be in front of these two people, he still pretended to ask naturally: "What's wrong? Speak slowly, don't worry."
"Liz is missing. I went to her house to ask about her father. But there is no one in her family, it's like the whole family has suddenly disappeared!"
With a thud, Sirius suddenly felt that there was one less person he could rely on now.
From the looks of it, Liz had either succeeded or died in the natural disaster a few days ago.
So...he can only rely on himself.
When Sirius finished his uncomfortable run and returned to the room under Hannah's surveillance, Nalia on the other side had also finished handling everything and returned to the New Delhi Manor.
But on the way back on horseback, she kept thinking about how to explain all this to the fake Sirius.
In fact, the most important thing is the deep-rooted class ideology, which makes her not want to talk too much to an ordinary civilian from beginning to end. What she wants is control, not cooperation.
Although from the current point of view, this "Siris" has a pretty good character. But she couldn't see whether the other party was willing to believe in her, and then followed her to fight against Engli.
And the most important thing is that Engli played a dirty trick with her, so now if she wants Sirius to completely believe her, she must convince him that the person who wants to kill him is not under her instructions.
"I'll give you a choice, believe me, or believe the eldest prince."
Nalia, who was greeted by all the servants and bowed down, walked slowly to Sirius' room and knocked on the door to enter, finally chose such a straight-to-the-point statement. Way.
"...Your Highness, you are joking. Am I not yours? How dare I question you?" "...
"
She felt the yin and yang in Sirius's words. If it were in the past, she would definitely not be able to tolerate such a proud person. The civilians were so rude to her. Maybe with a flash of sword light at this moment, this rude person would die in a pool of blood.
However, Nalia was not too angry at the moment. Instead, she looked with interest at the young man who dared to talk to her like this.
"The person who is going to kill you is not me, but the eldest prince Engri.
Of course, since you choose to believe me, then I can guarantee that the eldest prince will not take action against you casually in the future. After all, you are the only one who can expose his plot. The second prince has done those things, this is the reason why he must get rid of you, and it is also the reason why I need you to be on my side the most."
Nalia didn't seem to hear the irony in Sirius's words, and spoke directly Through his words, the topic continued.
And Sirius, who was lowering his head at the moment, was suddenly startled after hearing these words from Nalia.
Did this evil woman have a fever that burned her brain out?
He was so provocative just now, and she wasn't even angry, but she just gave in?
Is it possible that the princess Nalia I designed before still has some slight masochistic tendencies?
But no matter what, Sirius, who took the risk, understood Nalia's attitude through the conversation just now. That is, Luther is dead at this moment, so the only survivor himself has become the only political tool of value to him.
Yes, Sirius could now confirm that the Nalia in front of him was not on Engri's side. Perhaps the reason why Nalia chose to come here and befriend her was to use these sugar-coated bullets to make him lose his vigilance, and finally use him as a bargaining chip to pull Engri from his current position.
By that time, there would be no Engri and no Sirius, wouldn't the throne belong to her, Nalia?
Tsk tsk, this woman is quite ambitious, isn’t she? Is it the confidence that the previous queen gave her?
But the eldest prince, who had no luck at the moment, might not be her match.
"Of course, during this period I will give you everything you want to have now. You can continue to play the role of the second prince and enjoy the rights brought by the status of a royal noble, but these rights need to be within the scope of my permission.
You You can also become the new lord of Anka. Although for a 'prince', becoming the lord of a small border land is not an honorable thing.
But I think this is enough for a commoner like you. At least stand It's much wiser from my side than to continue to trust the eldest prince who wants to kill you."
"...Okay."
"Very good."
The conclusion of the deal just made Sirius happy that he didn't have to confront him directly for the time being. This woman, but he didn't expect that Nalia's next words would directly make him tremble.
"In that case, you can come back to Aphrama with me tomorrow morning."
"...Huh?"
"Don't worry, this time you are not going to confront Engri face to face. It's just because the empress is already in a critical condition. , I need you as the second prince to see her for the last time.
At this time, Engri dare not take action against us. When everything is over, you can still return to Anka under the protection of Hannah and become the new lord here. When I successfully knock down Engri in the end, you can return to your previous identity and appearance."
Nalia showed a rare smile on her lips, and then turned around and left while Sirius was still dazed. to his room.
Sirius, who was alone in the room, could hardly stop cursing at this moment.
No, he believed that the person behind the scenes who wanted to kill him was not Nalia, but Ngri. But this doesn't mean that after he believes it, he immediately wants to show off his presence in front of the rightful owner?
Can you give him some development time?
Sirius felt that this was an ambitious woman whose inner desire for power could no longer be restrained, and she couldn't help but want to take away the throne as soon as possible.
The last sentence clearly exposed this woman's inner thoughts. She had already begun to disagree with herself, talking about our wonderful corrupt life after seizing power.
That's why this woman couldn't wait to tie herself up and return to the imperial city to have a showdown with Engel and Empress Skylar.
He even specifically chose to go there when the empress was about to die, in order to make the other party angry on the spot, thus eliminating the previous empress and the only competitor for this term at the same time.
What is this called? Kill two birds with one stone, kill two birds with one shot!
Damn it, if Sirius had known any modern medical skills before he traveled through time, he would have saved his cheap mother on the spot no matter what, and gave these two royal brothers and sisters a hard beating, who were always thinking about how to step on his superiors. Face.
At this moment, Sirius suddenly found himself entering that wonderful button space again.
Full of resentment, he walked to the button with some annoyance, but with a confused look on his face, he saw a line of Chinese characters written next to it that made his pupils dilate:
[Press this button and you will get a chance to resurrect anyone. 】
Is this... you came to give me a pillow when you fell asleep?
