Working Prophet.

Chapter 15 An Election Without Suspense
"I won? Am I the next lord of Greenfield?!"

Ilea opened her mouth wide, looking in disbelief, and she couldn't blame Miss Rabbit for being too unpromising, mainly because the transition from great sorrow to great joy came too quickly.

Just for a short while, Ilea's mood was like riding a roller coaster.

At first, he was satisfied with the winning chance, but then inexplicably began to dive down, plunged headlong into the abyss of despair, turned around in the blink of an eye, and went straight to the sky.

The girl was dizzy now, and she couldn't catch her breath until she saw Marquis Cullen nodding again, and said affirmatively, "Yes, that's right."

Only then did she completely feel that she was hit by a huge sense of happiness!
If the boss hadn't just warned her not long ago, she would probably jump up again now, but even though Miss Rabbit finally controlled her feet, she still couldn't hide her excitement.

His chest was heaving violently, and hot air was constantly blowing out from his nasal cavity.

She stepped forward with brisk steps, swore allegiance to the Marquis of Cullen, and then hugged her supporters warmly, celebrating the hard-won victory.

Of course, she did not forget the person who should be most grateful.

Ilea ran all the way to Li Yu, but halfway through the run, she seemed to remember her new identity again, slowed down, and showed some reserve of the head of the Arias family.

"That's right, you've done a good job, um... just as I explained before."

Miss Rabbit said loudly, as if she was afraid that the people around would not be able to hear her, and at the same time she gave Li Yu a wink, implying that he would help him to cooperate, so that he could say anything when he was in a place where no one was around.

Li Yu took half a step back calmly to protect his eardrums.

Just as he was about to speak, Ilea made another gesture to him to wait.

Miss Rabbit looked over Li Yu's shoulder and landed on her half-brother. She grinned and gave Blanca a sly smile.

"Boy, what did you say before, you plan to execute me after inheriting the green field? Hehe, if I were you, I would already run out of here crying, hurry up, hurry up, my dear brother, because the three giant wolves coming!"

Blanca has been terrified since she lost the election. She hid behind her mother and only dared to show half of her head. After hearing what her sister said, her little face turned pale.

The whole person trembled, and a sharp-eyed person nearby also noticed that his trouser leg was slightly wet.

Miss Rabbit turned back as satisfied as if she had eaten two taels of meat during the Chinese New Year, and said to Li Yu, "What did you want to say just now?"

"........."

"What is this?" Li Yu frowned.

"Let me think about it... oh, why don't we just call it justice from heaven, you heard what he said about me before, why, as long as he rides on my head to show off his power, I can't scare him ?"

"You shouldn't threaten a mother's son in front of her," Li Yu reminded.

"Okay, I admit that what I just did was a bit too much... But I am already the head of the Arias family. Even if Vanessa is upset with me, there is nothing I can do about it, hahahahaha." Ilea The more I talked, the happier I was, and I couldn't help laughing out loud.

She was still immersed in the excitement of winning the election, but then she heard Li Yu say, "If I were you, I wouldn't be so optimistic."

"Why?" Miss Rabbit was taken aback. After experiencing the series of events before, the girl no longer dared to underestimate this foreigner who came out of nowhere.

This guy obviously doesn't understand anything, and even some of the most basic common sense on the Bratis Continent needs to be taught, but the suggestions he gave are very useful.

One said one thing, that mouth was more effective than the most prophetic old priest in the temple.

And just now he was the one who silenced Vanessa, the most eloquent of the Arias family, and reversed the unfavorable situation by himself.

Ilea couldn't even imagine how difficult her current situation would be if she hadn't met this weird foreigner last night.

So she had completely forgotten that she and Li Yu were just acting on occasion, and subconsciously regarded the latter as her real advisor.

Li Yu looked around, "This is not a place to talk."

"Then go back to my room," Miss Rabbit suggested, "You go there first, and I'll find you after I deal with the people here."

Li Yu nodded.

About half an hour later, the girl and Li Yu met again in the guest room where she lived.

Ilea closed the door, poured herself a glass of mead to moisten her throat, and then asked curiously, "What happened? Why did you make it so mysterious."

"How many armed forces do you have in Yanxue City?" Li Yu asked straight to the point without talking nonsense.

"Uh... The family has about three knights this time. They have seven followers, plus twelve warriors, six archers, and my stepmother seems to have hired a team of mercenaries." Ilea After recalling it, he replied, "If it is really dangerous, some followers and servants can also join the battle..."

Li Yu interrupted her, "I'm not asking about the Arias family, but about your own."

"Is there any difference between the family's armed forces and my own? Have you forgotten that I am now the head of the Arias family, and all the warriors of the family must be loyal to me, and what are you doing to count the armed forces? Rock Snow City With the Marquis of Cullen personally in charge, the law and order is pretty good."

"Just in case."

"Just in case...what if?" The girl became more and more confused.

"Someone is unwilling to fail in case." Li Yu didn't hide any more.

"Are you implying that my stepmother Vanessa might do something to me?!" Ilea's eyes widened, "This...she is crazy sometimes, I thought so a long time ago, especially for her son She can do anything, but are you sure she's crazy to this extent?"

Miss Rabbit was deeply skeptical, "Even if she was greatly stimulated today and had mental problems, who else in the family would be willing to go crazy with her besides my uncle Dias? I have already won the election, Cullen The Marquis, Sir Romero, and Sir Lyon were all present, and there are more than 100 pairs of eyes to testify.

"Now that I succeed my father as the Lord of the Green Field, this matter is a foregone conclusion, and now I will stand on Blanca's side... Well, don't you think it's a little too late, and the risk is too great?"

"The question is how do you know that they are only now supporting your brother?" Li Yu asked rhetorically.

"It doesn't matter when they supported my brother, what matters is that I won, and they have to choose a side again." Miss Rabbit didn't know if she drank too much mead, and she was a little swayed.

"Of course it matters. You are too suspicious of other people and too trusting of family and friends."

Ilea was not convinced, "I admit... I underestimated you a little before, I apologize to you, this time I was able to win the election thanks to you, and I will do my best to repay you when I return to the green field. Oh, and about my uncle Antonio.

"I really didn't expect him to be a double-faced villain, especially considering that my father was so close to him. His betrayal is even more shocking and heartbreaking, but this is just an example. He can't represent the family. other people."

"Really, then what happened to your uncle in the King's Knights?"

"Uh... It's a bit strange that Uncle Torres supported my younger brother in the letter. He obviously has a better relationship with my aunt Alisa."

Reminded by Li Yu, Miss Rabbit finally remembered this somewhat unusual thing.

She found it unbelievable at the time, and once wondered if the letter had been transferred, because with the close relationship with Alisa, Torres had no reason to choose Blanco instead of her.

It's just that later this matter was covered up by that hard-won beautiful victory, and in addition, Ilea's subconscious was also somewhat unwilling to accept a certain terrible conjecture.

After hesitating for a long time, the girl hesitated, "Do you think my aunt Alisa...

"I don't know, I just want to tell you that no one spoke to me until the election began." Li Yu continued.

"I have something to say about this. Is there a slight possibility... that it's because you're a foreigner and you're wearing strange clothes?" the girl reminded tactfully.

"I'm your advisor," Li Yu said lightly, "Your stepmother knows about my existence."

"Well, Captain Levine met you in the courtyard last night, and he asked the maid to arrange a place for you later. News always spreads quickly in noble mansions, so..." Miss Rabbit spread her hands, "It's not surprising that my stepmother heard about you in the morning."

"You're right. The same applies to the followers and fighters of the Arias family. Many of them should know my identity, but no one came to look for me the whole morning."

Li Yu followed Ilea's words and said, "Don't talk about taking the initiative to show love to me, I haven't even seen anyone who came to say hello to me secretly. For a group of people whose glory and life are tied to the next Patriarch It is neither necessary nor wise to bet too heavily on one side prematurely, let alone bet on one side.

"There is only one possibility for this to happen," Li Yu looked into Miss Rabbit's eyes, and said word by word, "Although the election hasn't started yet, most people in your family already know that you are doomed !"
