Don't confiscate my citizenship

Lan Qi and the Queen sat on both sides of the exquisitely carved dining table. The silver candlestick looked noble and solemn in the center of the table. There was no candle on the top, and the light outside the window was also very dim. It was obviously noon, but there was no color reflected in the surroundings. On the vessel, the air had a hint of rainy haze.

"Thank you, Your Majesty Keshia."

Lan Qi thanked the Queen.

After the two had a brief exchange before the meal, the dining table became quiet again for a long time. The waiter began to serve dishes one after another. While the two were thinking, they continued to eat with etiquette.

Until the clock unknowingly turned half a circle, lunch time passed, and the waiters cleaned the table for them as before dinner.

Queen Kesia looked out the window at the courtyard where the rain was about to fall, and was silent for a moment.

"To be honest, I'm scared of you because no one can figure you out."

She said frankly, without looking at Lan Qi,

"I heard your speech yesterday. It was great. To be honest, I was inspired by you, but I was also more scared. I was afraid that letting you take office would have been a wrong decision."

She didn't know whether she should say these words to Ranchi Wilford. She couldn't find a topic, so she could only talk about what was in her heart.

"In your opinion, am I more terrifying, or is the Horning Empire more terrifying?"

Ranch asked.

"..."

Queen Keshia made no reply.

Objectively speaking, she actually felt that the man in front of her was far less scary than the Horning Empire. This was a question without any suspense.

But he was right in front of her, and if this man was an enemy, she would feel uneasy from the bottom of her heart.

"Put it another way, I am your staunch supporter and will do my best to fight for you against the Horning Empire. Do you still think I'm scary?"

Lan Qi asked again.

"No."

Queen Keshia closed her eyes and shook her head.

Receiving Lan Qi's assurance only made her feel extremely relieved for a moment.

"I'm worried about your standing in Parliament."

she added.

Even if she is willing to support the new prime minister, she is just a symbol of power in the hearts of the people. She does not have much real power to influence the parliament. She only has some personal connections to persuade people who may help the prime minister.

Queen Kesia knew very well what happened in the meeting of the House of Lords before Ranchi came today. If Wilford and Duke Moretti had not maintained a high degree of restraint, the differences and conflicts in the parliament might have further intensified until Unable to clean up, civil unrest arose.

When Lan Qi heard Keshia's words, he seemed to remember the ridiculous confrontation in the morning.

"They want to get rid of the busker and replace him with his monkey."

He said with some dissatisfaction.

"Watch your words, Sir Wilford, Duke Moretti is my good friend."

Queen Keshia scolded.

She was surprised that Ranchi would speak wildly at this moment and express his thoughts frankly. It seemed that he was indeed very emotional towards Duke Moretti.

"..."

Hearing this, Lan Qi lowered his head and was speechless for a long time.

"Although I don't know the specific communication process between you and Duke Moretti this morning, I believe that you are all based on the idea of ​​​​better for the Paulante Empire. I should not interfere in the disputes between you, let alone I will defend you rightly and wrongly, but when I hear others say bad things about my friends, I will never agree with them and I need to correct them."

Queen Kesia began to worry that she had said the wrong thing, explaining or making a statement.

"Only I'm not wanted."

Lan Qi said disappointedly.

This suddenly made Queen Kesia worry again.

"Maybe you scare people. No one knows what your next decision will be, or even what kind of words you will say."

Seeing the slightly depressed Lan Qi, Keshia's tone softened a lot.

Cat boss: "???"

It feels like I have learned new tea ceremony skills.

Sometimes directly expressing dissatisfaction, a method that seems not even low-grade green tea, can actively induce the other party to rebuke, thereby assuming a victim posture and making the other party wonder who is at fault.

Now, instead of continuing to question Ranchi, Princess Keshia may have begun to think more about "whether Duke Moretti has gone too far."

This is not a low-level green tea method, but a return to nature that combines advancement with retreat and retreat with advancement. Compared with innocence, he even seems to be very upright.

As they talked, their relationship became closer.

Ranchi was isolated and helpless in the House of Lords during the war, but Princess Kesia's attitude was also clear, and she was willing to trust the Prime Minister.

The ensuing conversation between the two touched on many topics about the war and the future of the country. Queen Kessia expressed her views in a thoughtful way, while Ranchi showed his leadership and loyalty to the empire. The Queen expressed her gratitude to Ranchi. The decision raised a lot of questions, but it also came with satisfaction from Lanci's answers.

Although the status of the two is different, the subtle mutual understanding and respect between them begins to become more and more solid.

Until finally, the agreed lunch time was coming to an end.

Lan Qi glanced at his watch and politely signaled to Her Majesty the Queen that he needed to go about his work.

"I'm sorry, Sir Wilford, for taking up a lot of time when you should be able to rest."

Queen Kesia suddenly realized that time had passed so quickly.

However, Lan Qi has no intention of leaving in a hurry. If the Queen still has questions, he will give priority to answering them until Her Majesty is satisfied.

"I actually don't see any hope of winning. Maybe in more than a month, the Horning Empire will enter Helsalem."

Queen Kesia took a deep breath and pointed out the most critical issue.

"What do you think the odds are now?"

Although no one can really answer it, she believes that it is not only her, but also the question that the people of the Paulant Empire are most concerned about.

She just wanted to hear what Wilford was thinking, maybe he could give herself a little more confidence.

Even if he was lying to her, as the main militant, he should exaggerate his chances of winning as much as possible.

"0."

Lanci replied.

"..."

Queen Kessia seemed shocked by Ranchi's honesty.

At least he should have said one percent, right?

However, Queen Kesia could not see any hint of lying in Lan Qi's eyes.

She wanted to ask.

Since you are the one who most firmly believes that there is no chance of winning, why do you want to be the first to go against the wind?

"Are you serious?"

These were the only words that finally came out of Queen Kesia's mouth.

She could not empathize with the Prime Minister's psychology at this moment and could only stare into his emerald green eyes.

She couldn't tell whether it was a clear lake or a bottomless deep pool, but she accidentally looked at him for a long time and forgot to take her eyes away.

"Please believe me. There is a saying that goes like this, 'When you are ready to sacrifice yourself, you are more likely to sacrifice others.' Fighting against the Horning Empire may cause a lot of sacrifices, but until then, I have done my best Sacrificing my own preparations, I will open up a chance of victory for you at all costs, Your Lady Queen.”

At this moment, Lan Qi was like a knight swearing an oath to the queen.

But he is different from ordinary steadfast and brave knights.

It was a vast loneliness and a touch of vulnerability.

"..."

Kexia didn't know why, but she always felt that in front of this man, she didn't look like a constitutional emperor with a noble status, but a wise king with absolute imperial power.

This is a huge expectation and a kind of trust that entrusts your back to her.

It made her want to protect this man and support him in his heroic and great deeds.

"I see."

Queen Kesia pondered, and finally nodded firmly.

Later, Ranchi said a brief farewell to Queen Kessia, and said that he would come to see her again. After receiving Queen Kessia's promise, he left Salem Palace and entered the next itinerary.

It’s hard to comment on Boss Cat.

Another human being who has not escaped Lan Qi's hypnosis. After a few more sessions, he may just let Lan Qi go.

Those outside the Shadow World, as well as the Horning Empire and the Blood Tribe opposite may not yet realize the seriousness of the problem.

Even the cat boss knows that this is a global strategic hegemony type of shadow world, not a character favorability strategy type of shadow world!

You look like an evil god who is bringing disaster to the country!
