Chapter 364 Choice

"But," Robin asked unwillingly. "No matter how you look at it, I think the little queen... or Ashu Rufate can win this competition for the throne."

"Yes," admitted Beller. "If he set out immediately, and cleansed the conservatives in the army...yes, a bloody purge, he would have full control of the army, and then, anything else in Prince Boer turned into a house of cards, just need our little queen to stretch out a finger and poke it down."

He smiled and looked at Robin. "So, I'm just betting that Ashu Rufat won't do that!"

Robin was still confused, so Beller laughed. "Robin, do you remember when we were in Sivania? What I said to you at that time... For us, the result was just a transition between 'best' and 'not bad', do you understand?"

"If Prince Boer wins the throne, then he must...on the surface he respects his sister very much. He must slowly cultivate his team and slowly eliminate his sister's influence. Before he can finally get rid of the shadow of the little queen, it will take him ten years... or longer. During this period, unless a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity appears, he will not have the ambition to expand externally."

"If our little queen wins the throne, she must have relied on the support of the army - that is, the support of Ashu Rufate - to complete a purge. Then she has to slowly eliminate the adverse effects of this brother-sister showdown. Well, let alone the reputation issues. I guess it will take three years to reorganize the military and eliminate the conservatives in the country who support the princes...?"

"But, even if the army is not cleaned, I think that little queen has a greater chance of winning." Robin was still a little unwilling to give up.

"Robin, are you a noble? You should know that if someone came to the door to ask for a duel with you for some boring reasons... You have the right to choose a weapon as the challenged party, would you choose a weapon that you are not good at at all? Although you have half the chance of winning with that weapon."

Robin immediately understood. This is a battle related to life and death. You cannot give up the winning method and choose those methods with only half the chance of winning.

"Besides, even if this happens, what does it matter to me? The Gronians have regained the White Fort, and in the foreseeable future, they will not lose it again. I am probably unlikely to appear on this land as reinforcements. At this time, what does a little private favor or hatred for private people mean to me? Of course, if I really come back, they may need me far more than I need them. In this case, favors and hatred have no meaning."

Berel chuckled and drank the wine in his glass in one sip.

"Why not do it without a business?"

...

The little girl used her slightly spasm hand to tore the letter in her hand to pieces.

This is a letter from Eagle City, not through magical communication, but was sent by a messenger with a fast horse.

White Fort is really a very good castle. As mentioned earlier, it is not only a border fortress, but also a military stronghold, but also a beautiful and livable castle. The filth left by chaos on it has been cleaned up at this time - this was completed under the command of the church priests, and it can be imagined that the project was done very thoroughly.

The reconstruction of some details has not been completed, but since White Castle has been trapped in the hands of chaos for only ten years, it is easy to find the detailed information of that year and restore the entire city to its original appearance. No one can doubt this.

It should have been full of pride and joy to be able to watch this city lost by my father and then taken back by myself as a queen.

However, this letter shattered all good moods.

You can't describe this feeling, it's like the world is turning upside down overnight. The little girl had noticed it before, but now she found that things have developed to this point.

The letter was written by Rotia's subordinates, and recorded in detail what happened in the recent times in the Hawk City one by one.

The little girl felt something was wrong in Gaohua City. But at that time, this was just a feeling and there was no support from outside information. But no matter how few people around her were, when a rumor was already circulating all over the world, it would eventually reach her ears.

Prince Boer, her brother, is still alive. And he has returned to the Hawk City.

Outsiders really can't tell what the little girl felt when she heard this news. But she knew that it was definitely a mixed feeling and no one could explain it clearly. If there was anything strongest among them, it was that she felt betrayed.

This feeling was felt once when Byron launched a coup. In an instant, everyone became enemies - except that one.

So, the little girl immediately sent someone to the Eagle City to investigate. After all, she had been the queen for ten years, so she naturally understood what the news meant. So she did not simply send a maid guard around her to investigate, but asked Rotia beside her to write a letter to a loyal and reliable subordinate of the Eagle City. She realized that this matter did not involve the underground world, so he was able to obtain correct and comprehensive information through Rotia's channels.

And Rotia did not disappoint her expectations - in fact, in a sense, she would rather Rotia let it down - brought comprehensive and detailed information.

Things have developed to an indescribable stage. Her brother, the man who was already blurred in her mind and had only a few pictures left, had returned to Hawk City without her knowing nothing.

According to the letter, the subjects of the Falcon City immediately supported each other. The respected court chief Scadra and Prime Minister Ailin accompanied the prince to conduct a ceremony to enter the city.

Then, with the support of his ministers, the prince immediately coroned him by the high-ranking priest of the Eagle City, and the prince officially ascended the throne and became the king. Regarding the question of the little girl, he announced that she had abdicated. Of course, he also promised that before he had his descendants, the little girl would still be the first heir. In addition, after he became king, the prince did not make any changes to the personnel arrangements left by the little girl. In other words, Ailin was still the prime minister, and the ministers were still in their own position. If there was any difference, it was that the person on the throne had changed.

The little girl was in Gaohua City, and the news was not going well (as mentioned earlier, there was no magician responsible for magic communication in Gaohua City), so she knew nothing about everything. During this period, this matter had been spread to the entire country through magic communication. No, not only Groni, but also other places. Now, the courts of all countries must have known about this matter.

A new (and theoretically legal) king ascended the throne, while the queen who had originally practiced this throne remained silent on the border. This delicate moment maintained a silent silence in all aspects. In other words, a pair of curious eyes were waiting for the outcome of this confrontation.

The king returned to the royal city and was favored by the subjects. The queen was in charge of the frontier and the army was under control. The other lords and governors remained silent and tried their best to pretend to be unaware of it. In other words, the entire country is still operating normally.

Many people hope that this matter will be compromised in a decent, peaceful and harmonious way, while others expect the conflict to go from this weird calm to a fierce conflict.

"I..." The little girl wanted to speak, but when she opened her mouth, she found that she couldn't say anything. A strong instinct impulse surged up. She found that her eyes were heating up.

"You can't cry. The first lesson of a queen, that is, the most basic requirement, is that you must never cry, at least you cannot let outsiders see that they are crying." Ash Rufate's words instantly emerged in her mind.

"You all go down first and let me calm down." The little girl said. As the followers left, she added another sentence. "If Earl Ashurufat comes, let him come to see me immediately!"

Soon, everyone around him left. The little girl wiped her eyes with the back of her hand - although she had told herself that she could not cry a hundred times, the back of her hand was still wet.

She didn't know why she was like this. She originally thought she should be angry, but in fact she was sad. Her heart was in chaos.

Then she heard footsteps. When she raised her head, she saw Ashu Rufate. Ashu Rufate was dressed in formal clothes and came to meet the queen. This was also in line with the current environment: the queen came to inspect her newly reclaimed land and meet her general who won victory and glory.

But the little girl couldn't control herself at all, so she rushed up and threw herself into Ash Rufate's arms. Her cheeks were pressed against Ash Rufate's cold breastplate.

"You are crying again." Ashu Rufate's voice rang in her ears. "I seem to have told you that the king has no tears."

"It's okay," she said softly. "No outsiders."

It took a long time to feel calm. Ashu Rufate just hugged her quietly during this period and moved nothing. She slowly broke free from Ashu Rufate's arms, and then suddenly, she found that her face was so hot.

She just now... just now... this was... too... too direct, right? She took a peek at Ashu Rufate, but found that the latter looked calm and seemed to have nothing happened.

"Did you know?" the little girl suddenly asked in a daze. However, the two of them already had enough tacit understanding, and Ashu Rufate would not understand the mistake.

"Well, this is being said everywhere," Ash Rufate replied. "I was skeptical. But now, it seems that it can be confirmed."

"What should I do?" asked the little girl. Anyone could see that when she asked this question, she was no longer asking her general as a queen, but a girl asking her lover.

"You should say what you want to do." Ashu Rufate said. "I am on your side. Even if you are enemies with everyone, I am on your side." He said softly. "I will lend you my strength, just as I once said." He knelt on one knee, pulled up the corner of the little girl's skirt, put it on her lips and touched it gently.

"You don't have to worry about failure, because you are far stronger than your brother now! If you really want it, I will kill him for you!"
