Chapter 45: You said you didn’t lie?
"Ahem..."
Engli's expression was a little awkward. He didn't expect that his imperial sister would speak so unpleasantly, which made him not want to pretend anymore for a moment.
And when he saw Sirius who was silent on the side, as if his mind was not on their side at all, he felt speechless again.
But that's right, the other party is just a country bumpkin who has never seen the world. It is his first time to come to such a magnificent place, so he will inevitably be a little curious.
But is the other party really that simple? If it were really simple...why would his subordinate's seemingly foolproof assassination fail?
"Sister Royal, I think there is some misunderstanding between us. Can you walk around the palace with me and take this rare opportunity to catch up on old times and resolve the misunderstanding?" "
...Then please."
Na Li Ya raised his eyebrows, glanced slightly at Hannah behind him, nodded to Sirius, and then left first with Engri.
This turn of events made Sirius feel a little speechless, but also a little happy at the same time. He actually didn't want to act with these two people here. Doing so would not do any good to change his destiny.
"Lord Sirius, please come with me. During these few days in the palace, I will protect your safety."
Hannah's face was full of seriousness, which made Sirius feel as if this woman had never been When she smiles, in a sense... she seems to be even more dull than her imperial sister Nalia.
Or...simple.
Sirius actually liked to get along with such people, and he even hoped that Hannah could become his subordinate if possible.
The other party is strong and steady in doing things, and should not say or do things that he should not do. How different is he from his unlucky butler... If he hadn't been lucky, sooner or later he would have been tricked to death by the other person's self-impressed behavior.
The long silence may have caused Hannah to misunderstand that Sirius did not trust her, so Hannah said with assurance again:
"Sir Siris, I can assure you that unless I fall, I will not let you... People are in danger."
"No, I believe you."
The other party knew clearly that he was a "fake", but he still insisted on calling himself "Sir", which made Sirius feel a little weird.
But at this moment, he still trusts Hannah very much, at least more than Nalia, that woman.
Unless Nalia lets her backstab him...
"Where are we going now?"
"Back to Lord Sirius, we are going to your palace now. It is already late today and not suitable for meeting Her Majesty the Queen." "
That's it. ..."
Sirius has not lived in the palace for long since he came here, so he does feel a little unfamiliar with the environment here.
Along the way, he followed Hannah in twists and turns. During this long journey, he was forced to say hello to a bunch of unknown people. Although from his perspective, it was obvious that these people's politeness to him was only superficial.
The second prince's residence was relatively remote, and because no one had cleaned it for a long time, there was already some dust on the bed when they entered.
The palace servants came in at the right time and started cleaning the room in an orderly manner. This scene made Sirius look a little weird. There was always a feeling that he was here as a guest instead of going home.
Anyway, he didn't understand why these basic things were not done when he knew in advance that they were coming.
But thinking of his current position, he could only shrug helplessly.
"Hannah, can I... go to the Royal Library and have a look?"
Although he knew that he had no magical talent, Sirius still wanted to try because he had a feeling that if he traveled through time and plundered his luck, he would As a result, many things have changed, so maybe I don't have any magic talents like before.
Even Sirius suddenly had an idea that made people shiver down their backs. Could it be that my awakening ability is the button itself?
"Okay, please come with me."
Hannah nodded, without any intention of asking Sirius about his intentions, as if he was a machine that could only execute orders.
Sirius sighed, not knowing whether coming to the Imperial City this time was a good thing or a bad thing...
——————————
“Tell me, what do you want to say to me when you leave Sirius alone?”
"Haha..."
Engli had long expected that Nalia would be so straightforward. After all, the other party had no intention of "reminiscing about the past" with him from the beginning.
"But seeing what you mean, you still can't let go of that bastard Sirius? Why... everyone is dead, and you still pretend that he is still alive?" "
..."
Nalia was not angered by such a crude provocation. , she knew that in this situation neither of them could do anything extraordinary.
"Forget it, let me show my cards in this case. I don't want our siblings to have such a secret rivalry when the Queen is about to die. This is completely unnecessary, isn't it?
I don't even understand. One has nothing. Trash, you did so many crazy things before you died, why do you still stand on his side?
Or... you actually don't care about those things at all, you are just trying to get some benefits from me?" "
I I never thought about having anything to argue with you."
"Then..."
"But that doesn't mean that I can turn a blind eye to your frame-up of Sirius, and then tolerate someone like you to become the future emperor of the Xilin Empire." "
? ??"
Engli was stunned for a moment.
He thought about many possibilities, but he never thought that such an illogical statement would come from the mouth of his imperial sister.
Yes, he is indeed a bit unscrupulous now, and the things he does are not as upright as he seems on the surface, but this does not mean that he will find ways to smear a waste.
Trying every means possible just to completely destroy a second prince who is already on the edge? What was his motivation for doing this?
There was some displeasure on Engli's face for a moment, and this dissatisfaction quickly turned into anger. He turned around and asked,
"Are you doubting me? You suspect that I was responsible for that incident a month ago." Fabricated? And the purpose is to put your favorite good-for-nothing brother in such a position that is despised by thousands of people? Is he worthy?!"
Nalia narrowed her eyes. At this moment, Engli only gave him She had the impression of
being furious.
After a bad thing she had done was exposed on the spot, she became angry and wanted to use many words to whitewash the peace and cover up the despicable feeling in her heart.
"Nalia, I can promise the God of Light that I have never maliciously smeared Sirius. All his actions are true. If I intentionally lie about this...
Do you see that big tree over there? If I have any deception, let that tree..."
Before he could finish all this and rush over to cut off the entire trunk of the tree, he suddenly noticed that the already gloomy sky suddenly dropped. A bolt of thunder struck on its crown.
"..."
No, why hasn't his bad luck ended yet? Even if it hasn't ended, why don't you have an attack now?!
However, Nalia didn't care about this, she just hugged him Standing aside with his arms folded, his eyes looked mockingly at Engli, who was extremely embarrassed in front of him and had no previous elegance and easy-going demeanor. He was in a daze.
"So, do you have anything else to say? ”
