My villain wants to save himself, but the yandere heroine disagrees.

As expected, Orson still loves himself the most!

With this love, Lit can turn it into endless motivation.

Thinking of this, Lit quickly finished the breakfast in front of him, wiped his mouth, and said anxiously:

"Then... without further ado, Orson, teach me quickly!"

"Yes."

Orson nodded.

The misunderstanding between the two caused by waking up in the morning was slowly forgotten.

At this time, the door of the room was opened and a servant stood at the door.

"Master Lit, do you have any instructions for lunch?"

When they saw the servant, Orson and Lit were stunned for a moment.

Seeing the two standing there, the servant tilted his head, and then said in confusion:

"Um... Excuse me, is there anything strange on my face?"

At this time, the two also reacted.

It seems that the servant did not see the demonic features on Orson?

Lit glanced at Orson and found that Orson's horns were so small that they could be covered by his hair. A little bulge could be seen on the side, but it was basically invisible from the front.

Orson was facing the door at the moment, so the servant couldn't see anything. He only knew that the guest brought by Lit was also a handsome man.

Lit was the first to react, and then said:

"Ahem... For lunch, prepare some food according to the characteristics of this place. Remember to prepare two portions and send them to the door."

"Okay."

The servant nodded after hearing this.

"By the way, remember to knock on the door next time you come in."

"Ah, okay, I'm rude, I'm very sorry."

At this time, the servant finally understood why the two of them were stunned just now, and she kept bowing and apologizing. She just joined here not long ago, and happened to take a day off yesterday because of something at home.

You know, for ordinary people like them who have no fighting ability, it is really hard to find a job like a maid that does not require much effort, has comfortable and decent working conditions, and has a high salary. She doesn't want to lose her job because of this mistake.

Therefore, even if she has to give up all her dignity, she has to keep her job.

"It's okay, it's okay."

Even Orson felt that the maid in front of him was overreacting at this time, and hurriedly comforted her.

"That's right, I won't fire you, don't be so nervous." Li Te also said at this time.

"Really...really? Thank you, Lord Li Te!" The maid said this, bowed to Li Te again, and then prepared to leave the room.

"By the way."

At this time, Li Te stopped the other party.

"Ah... Is there anything else?"

The maid asked tremblingly.

"Do you remember what I told you just now?"

"Yes, remember, prepare two portions of local lunch and send them to the room, and be sure to knock before entering next time."

"Okay, you have a good memory, go back." Lit nodded with satisfaction, and the maid left the room.

After the maid left, Orson looked at Lit with a smile on his face.

This made Lit a little puzzled.

"Orson...you, why are you laughing suddenly?"

"Nothing, I just suddenly thought that when you first came to our house, Lit, you were also like her, trembling, right?"

As he said this, Orson showed a nostalgic look.

"But the status of the two is different after all."

As if afraid that Lit would mistakenly think that he compared her with a maid, he quickly added a sentence.

"What's the matter..." Lit muttered softly after hearing this.

"During the school festival, it's not like I didn't wear a maid outfit..."

"Huh?" Orson looked at Lit, curious about what she just said.

"Nothing!" Lit hurriedly ended the topic.

Chapter 76: Not an outsider

It was noon, and Orson handed the letter he wrote to Litt. After having lunch with Orson, Litt returned to Saint Laurent City with the letter.

It must be said that the cabinet system prepared by Orson in advance, whether it is to divide power to avoid the emergence of tyrants or simply to reduce the pressure on the rulers, has been of great help to the current situation.

At least, Orson does not need to show up, and Cherylina can do everything in the cabinet.

Afternoon, Saint Laurent City, the palace.

In the garden, two girls are sitting at the tea table, enjoying exquisite afternoon tea.

"The Lison Chamber of Commerce has made a lot of efforts in this imperial city incident. I will naturally remember this favor in my heart."

Elsa, wearing a white dress, looked at Cherylina sitting opposite her and said with a smile.

During this period, she first won the hearts of the local nobles in Saint Laurent City, and then gradually re-established the connection with other areas and the army under the direct jurisdiction of the royal family.

Today, she invited Chelinina alone to discuss the next issue.

"So, Your Majesty invited me here as the president of the Lison Chamber of Commerce today?"

Chelinina asked.

It's no wonder that Chelinina chose her words carefully, after all, Chelinina's current status is extremely special.

Although politics and business have always been inseparable, there are few businessmen like Chelinina who can achieve such a large scale and control the political power of a dukedom at the same time.

Before Chelinina, the idea of ​​most businessmen in the empire was to stay away from politics as much as possible, but they also hoped that the family could obtain political benefits. Therefore, although the head of the family would not obtain a political status, he would do so through marriage between family members and nobles. Seek all kinds of preferential treatment.

Chelinina can be said to have pioneered the history of imperial business.

Of course, she is not yet a noble, nor does she have a hereditary territory. Theoretically, once she resigns from the position of cabinet minister, she will be no different from an ordinary businessman.

But after all, if you hold the power of a duchy, everyone will probably seek some benefits for themselves.

"Of course." Elsa said with a smile.

"However, if you want to come in as the chief minister of the Napoli cabinet, I wouldn't mind."

"That's not necessary."

There is a distinction between public and private affairs, Chelinina still understands this.

It was precisely because of this that Orson handed over Napoli to Chelinina with confidence.

"Haha, indeed, Miss Chelinina is worthy of being valued by Duke Orson, and she will not disappoint."

Elsa's last sentence was a half-joking test.

After all, all the political and commercial power of a duchy is monopolized by one person. If that person has some corrupt intentions, unfair competition will be considered a trivial matter, and various corruptions may also breed from it.

But judging from these few minutes of conversation and the previous recovery of the Duchy of Naples, Chelinina is not that kind of person.

She may pursue power, but she is definitely not obsessed with it.

"In that case, let me get straight to the point."

Elsa said, taking out a thick stack of documents.

"After this civil war, many cities under the direct jurisdiction of the royal family were severely damaged, especially the city of Saint Laurent. The statistics of civilian casualties have been released. The death toll may have reached 100,000 people because of the emperor's previous wrong move. As a result, many buildings in the city were damaged.”

"So...Your Majesty, you want my Lissen Chamber of Commerce to help clean up the ruins??"

"No."

Elsa shook her head.

"To be precise, I want your Lissen Chamber of Commerce to build a new urban district on the ruins according to the previous design ideas of the new city of Antica City."

"Judging from the previous completion effect and speed of Antica City, Lissen Chamber of Commerce has this ability and efficiency."

"Then you've found the right person."

Chelinina heard this and nodded.

"We are completely able to accept this condition."

"good."

Seeing that Chelinina agreed, Elsa's matter was considered completed.

Demolition and reconstruction require a large amount of money. This large order is handed over to the Lissen Chamber of Commerce, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

It can not only provide favors to the Lissen Chamber of Commerce, but also use the efficiency of the Lissen Chamber of Commerce to quickly complete post-war reconstruction work.

Looking at the future business giant of the empire in front of her, Elsa wanted to further narrow the relationship between the two. In addition, she had heard about Chelinina's fortune before, so she asked:

"I heard, Miss Chelinina, that you have a very good relationship with Orson?"

"Um."

Chelinina did not deny it, but further added:

"Orson is my great benefactor. Without him, I wouldn't be where I am now."

"I was just the most inconspicuous of the three children of the Bonaventura family at the beginning. Facing the wheel of fate, my resistance seemed so weak. If Orson hadn't helped me, I'm afraid I would be I have reluctantly married into a strange noble family."

Elsa was deeply touched when she heard Chelinina's words, because she also came here the same way.

"Indeed, I also received a lot of help from Orson."

"I'm at a disadvantage in the succession. If it weren't for Orson, I wouldn't be in the position I'm in now."

"It seems that we are actually quite similar. We were both helped by Orson." Elsa said this and laughed.

Then, her expression darkened again.

Seeing this, Chelinina asked doubtfully:

"What's the matter, Your Majesty?"

He was smiling one second, but suddenly unhappy the next.

Are all emperors such unpredictable beings?

"I... Chelinina, although you received a lot of help from Orson, you gave feedback to Orson step by step later, didn't you?"

Of course, in Chelinina's heart, she could never repay Orson too much, but in the eyes of the outside world, Chelinina and Orson paid for each other.

But when it comes to Elsa, it seems that Elsa has always been asking Orson to trouble Orson and ask Orson to help her.

"I want to help Orson now, but I don't have the best way, alas..."

Saying this, she sighed again.

At this time, Chelinina glanced outside the garden, where a maid was looking towards the two of them.

When their eyes met, Chelinina knew something was going on.

So, she looked at Elsa opposite and said:

"Your Majesty, it seems that your maid has something to ask you?"

"Huh?" Upon hearing this, Elsa turned her head and saw the maid.

"Let's just talk here, okay?"

Elsa asked Chelinina for her opinion.

"It doesn't matter." Chelinina shook her head, "As long as His Majesty thinks it's appropriate."

After hearing Chelinina's words, Elsa waved to the maid, who immediately came over.
