It's not the protagonist, what does it matter if you are trapped in the Shura field

Chapter 437: The Woman Who Conquered Melendel

"When I was little, my father doted on me."

After Irus conjured up the entire tea party arrangement like magic, Lovely talked about what she knew about her father.

"When I was six years old, I was lost in the desert. I can't remember anything about that time. I only know that it took a long time to find me. My father mobilized half of the army in the royal city to look for me in the desert. I will always remember how miserable he and my mother cried when I woke up."

"But three years later, my father suddenly became a completely different person."

"He no longer cares about the affairs of the kingdom, and I can't feel his sincere communication with anyone, not even me... The ministers tried hard, and I also asked the best sorcerers in the kingdom for help. The results were all that my father was not manipulated by magic, and there was no sign of memory being affected or cursed. The person who replaced him as prime minister and led the kingdom was Randall..."

"Ten years later, I received the Sky Wing and Midsummer Manor from my father. That was the happiest birthday of my life. Even when Lucas put a dead bird in my cake, it didn't affect my mood. For a time, I thought that the father I was most familiar with had returned."

"But after that... nothing has changed."

Weimir and Ayining were listening attentively, while on the other side, Ananing and Luyi were obsessed with various exquisite tea party desserts, leaving cookie crumbs everywhere.

Now that I think about it, maybe Irus prepared all this just to avoid them interrupting and asking all kinds of strange questions.

"Now..." Vimir said with a worried look on her face, "Are you sure it's a similar influence to Maria?"

Lovely shook her head.

"This is also the reason why I didn't continue the investigation after leaving the capital," she said, looking up. "In fact, apart from face-to-face conversations, every reply I received from my father showed that he was the familiar person in the past. The state you saw was only limited to face-to-face conversations."

"Is there no possibility that someone else wrote it for you?" Hearing this, Ayining asked in surprise.

"Not true," Lovely's eyes were slightly bitter. "Every letter was written with the Queen Mother's presence, and the content is consistent with what I received. Last year in White Harbor Town, I sent a letter to my father saying that the priests of the church had made advances against me. In anger, my father caused a lot of trouble for the Prayer Church."

"In other words," Ayining said after sorting out the details, "your father is the normal king only in the letters?"

"That's understandable. So when I heard about Maria's situation, I didn't tell her about it right away. Did Saya communicate with Maria via letters?"

"...No." Saya shook her head.

For the past thirty years, no one knew where Maria was or where to send the letter.

But in her opinion, Maria was not as able to see the sense of disharmony as the king was, so she could not tell whether the two were suffering from the same kind of interference.

"Wait," Ayining interrupted, "Since the king who wrote the letter is normal, did you ask in the letter why it became like this?"

"Yes," Lovely nodded, "but this topic was deliberately avoided. When I asked my mother, she always said that my father was most energetic when he was writing letters."

"..."

If it is some kind of hint, what aspect of the hint would lead to such a result?
Vimir scratched her head in confusion. Before coming to the royal capital, she had had all kinds of fantasies. She always thought that Lovely's father would be the kind of king like in fairy tales, calm and kind, wise and capable, ruling over a land as large as the Lion Garden. However, what she actually saw was indeed somewhat different from what she had imagined.

However, since the problem can be seen at a glance, does that mean that there is actually no problem?

Hmm... I feel like something is growing on top of my head.

"What do you think?" Lovely finally threw the question to Luo Wei.

"It's the same as what your elder brother said." Luo Wei looked at the two people making a fuss over there, "But I want to remind you of one thing. Delving too deeply into this now will not be conducive to protecting their safety."

"What do you mean?"

"The king and Princess Emily Kash are not interfering with the affairs of the kingdom now, but they are not interfering too much with people and forces," Luo Wei paused after speaking and turned his gaze back to the few people. "But do you think it will be the same once we learn the truth or successfully find a way to make the king recover?"

"...!"

That is……

It can be imagined that if the king recovers, the prime minister will not remain indifferent.

Coupled with the current war situation on the mainland and the conspiracy hidden in the third world, what awaits Lovely's parents at that time will not be the peace they have now.

"Then we'll just watch..."

"Of course not," Luo Wei looked at her calmly, "Of course we have to investigate this matter. How can we let go of any clues related to the Third World? But you also know that this is the goal, not the solution to the problem."

Although the situation before them is very tricky, it does not mean that there is no clear main thread. The more forces that come in, the less clear the opponent's conspiracy is. The enemy has made a long preparation in order to create such a situation that makes people overwhelmed.

"The solution you mentioned is..." Lovely said uncertainly.

Luo Wei didn't answer, just looked at her.

Yeah……

Lovely opened her mouth slightly. She really shouldn't ask such a question at this point.

"I will try to visit them as little as possible in the future," Lovely hesitated and looked aside, "so that..."

"No need," Luo Wei closed his eyes to stop her from thinking pessimistically, "Just don't expect to get any help from your father. Just visit him when you need to. It would be suspicious if you deliberately distance yourself from him. Besides, since you have returned to your own home, isn't it great to still have such a connection? The people in this room envy you more than anything else."

Ayi Ning: "..."

Vermeer: ​​"..."

Shaye: "..."

Loveli lowered her head with mixed feelings.

"Cheer up," Luo Wei gently patted her forehead with his palm, "You have been too tense in the past few days back in the capital. Don't forget that your current goal is to conquer Melendel."

Conquer…Melendel?
They all knew that the main purpose of coming to the capital was to allow Lovely to seize power, but the word "conquer" always made people feel that there was a deeper intention.

Luo Wei looked at their reactions and laughed.

"You don't think I launched the trial just to get rid of a baron, do you? If so, I would have gone there last night to collect the bodies of these people. Why did I have to wait until today?"

"What do you mean...?" Ayining looked at him uncertainly.

"What does this have to do with your trial?" Thinking of what happened today, Shaye also asked with her arms crossed. "Of course it has something to do with it," Luo Wei leaned back on the sofa coldly, "Are you still waiting to find them one by one? Of course it's faster to let them go together. In the process, they can build a reputation and deal with those nobles who have opposing ideas. Naturally, the information that comes out next is closer to the truth and unknown."

"?"

what?
Several people sitting on the sofa were stunned as they listened.

Even after listening to the first half of his speech, Lovell was a little confused. She thought it was already amazing that he could withstand the attacks of those nobles, but he actually wanted to deal with them all at once? ?

Luo Wei looked at them calmly.

"It shouldn't be hard to understand if we remove all the obstacles that interfere and pave the way for future events, right?"

"...I don't think the difficult part is there." Ayining looked at him without commenting.

I watched him plan all this since last night. If there was anything wrong, it was that instead of making things easier, it caused himself a lot of trouble.

Think about it now.

He didn't solve the problem at all, but created it...

"Why aren't you talking?" Anaining spoke with three macarons in her mouth.

Several people:"……"

That lets them say what.

He really dared to think that even if he said this to the nobles in person, no one would believe it!

Lovely finally reacted. No wonder she felt that the things this guy asked her to say in the court were a bit too arrogant. It turned out that he had actually restrained himself, right? He had the greatest malice in mind from the very beginning. No wonder those nobles didn't react either. Who would do things to this extent from the very beginning... ?
Luo Wei had a look of dejection on his face. Look, they clearly said they wanted to hear his ideas, but in the end they didn't believe him. It's already the second round, and he's still playing tricks with those nobles. In the second round, you're telling me about the exploration of new land?
"The sooner we settle the situation in the capital, the more time we will have to deal with the problems that come later." He had never felt that he was as patient as he was today. "If those nobles refuse to obey, we can just beat them into submission. In the process, topics related to the princess will naturally attract attention. There are hundreds of families in Melendel, and the ones that are against us are only a small part of them. There is no need to say more about the rest."

"Hehe...it seems that," Irus said faintly, "every step you took before coming to the capital was to facilitate this result."

Look, look.

There is still one sensible person in this room.

Ayi Ning: "..."

So, everything he did, from exposing the Earl's crimes through a letter at the beginning, to swaggering into the city, to taking advantage of the Baron's abandoned child, was just to slap those nobles in the face?

Because if it was just once, the nobles wouldn't believe it at all... Instead, they were a little confused and unsure whether the fifth princess really did it on purpose...

Now it can be confirmed. Yes, it was intentional.

He is really...

But Ayining had to admit that this was indeed much faster than developing in obscurity, provided that he could really do it.

"That's all." Seeing that everyone was stunned, Luo Wei yawned and stood up, "Give me some information about the genealogy of the Lion Court families tonight. I think they should be in the bookcase next to your desk, right?"

"..."

The people of Lovely are all stupid.

It sounds like she can just sit in the manor and wait for someone to come and seek refuge, just because he flipped through a few catalog-like family genealogies? How could there be such an outrageous thing in the world...! ?

But if you ask her whether she believes it or not, because it is a conclusion only she can come to, her heart is really shaken.

Even though I have been trying hard not to take these things for granted.

"Hmph..." Saya muttered quietly, "If he can do that, I will eat this table right now."

Anaining, Luyi, Clothes, and Vimile all looked at her at the same time.

"Although I don't know what you are talking about..." Ananing smiled.

"But we will remember what you said~" Lu Yi smiled.

Saya: “……?!”

Vimir seemed to have just reacted at this moment. She stood up suddenly and called out to Luo Wei.

"Is there anything the rest of us can do? I want to help, too!"

If there are any branches and leaves on the main trunk, let me touch them too...!
Under everyone's gaze, Luo Wei, who had walked to the door, stopped, turned around and looked back at her.

"Have you summarized all the spells you learned in Lezhiman?"

"Uh……"

"Have you finished engraving the Philosopher's Stone for me?"

"Well……"

"And has the research on Gui Wu Hai that I helped Irus come to an end?"

"..."

Vimir was questioned by her soul.

Seeing her covering her chest, Luo Wei restrained his expression with amusement.

"Don't worry." He looked at the fool who thought he could do nothing, and his tone gradually became serious. "Although we must let the princess over there take the lead in public, this time the person who will play a role in the dark is you."

"..."

Vimir maintained the same position for a little too long.

...?
Eh?
Eh (;)!!
I... conquer Melendel?
