She Is Not a Witch

Vol 3 Chapter 53: Court meeting

In the dim room, the cakes and snacks on the tabletop had been cleaned up, and the three of them stood by the window reluctantly saying goodbye.

"I'm leaving, Lily." Lorrain Hill looked at the girl in front of him. Although she was a queen, she was still so weak and pitiful.

"Well, goodbye, Lorraine, and Eidolon." At this moment, Lily's mood stabilized a lot, and she tried to put a smile on her face.

"Be alive, Lily." Ye Ling waved his hand at this moment.

"I will." She took a deep breath.

"See you next time."

After speaking, Lorrain Hill took Eidolon's hand, and the two slowly floated up like a ripple, then became illusory, and then disappeared into the room. With the help of the power of the Moon Crown, Lorrain Hill can suppress the fluctuations of space movement to the minimum, even to the point where it is nuanced, and currently there is no existence of Sequence 8 or higher in the palace, so it is not difficult to hide it from the past.

After the two disappeared, only Lily was left in the room. She continued to sit for a while, stayed in a daze, and touched her cheek to make sure that everything just now was not a dream.

After a long time, she put on her coat and walked out of the room to see the two faithful maids still guarding outside.

"Let's go back, it's time to rest."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

——————

After leaving the palace, Lorrain Hill and Eidolon followed the convoy all the way south, towards the border of the empire. At present, the south has just been put down. Although there is some martial law, fortunately, the law and order are okay, and there are no special circumstances on the road. Perhaps this is also related to the badge given by the daughter of Earl Howard. As a well-known nobleman in the imperial capital, his face is still very useful.

After quelling the rebellion in the south, Prince Edron once again returned to the imperial capital, and as the regent, he will deal with the many problems that have accumulated in the empire. After he arrived at Titaniya, everything will also change.

At the court meeting.

At this moment, the luxurious hall decorated in gold and red is full of various nobles in the empire. Most of them have real power. Some are dressed in luxurious dresses, some are in military uniforms, and some are dressed in priests' robes and come from the church.

"His Royal Highness Prince Edron is here~ Your Majesty Queen is here~"

The loud shouts of the court attendants made the hall quickly quiet, and everyone lined up on both sides, respectfully looking at the entrance of the hall.

Edron, wearing a gold-red upright military uniform, and Lily Esther, a red queen in a flower dress, walked on the carpet together, marched side by side, entered the hall, and then sat on the two thrones in the middle.

As a queen, the throne is slightly backward and higher, which symbolizes the current legal order in the empire.

Lily, who was holding the little prince, looked at the strange faces below, her figure a little nervous, she secretly took a deep breath, adjusted her state, and then lightly raised her right hand to signal the start of the meeting.

"Your Majesty, Long live your Royal Highness." Many nobles bowed to salute, then lifted up and stood quietly.

"If you have anything to do today, you can come forward and report the discussion." The court minister stepped forward, standing in front of the two majesty, and said to the people below.

"My Majesty, your loyal minister has something to report."

An aristocrat with dark blue and short hair came out. He was tall and thin, with a gray-blue bird badge on his chest. He appeared to be a vassal in the north of the empire.

"Master Evans, please speak."

"In the fief where I was located, there was heavy snow this year. There was no harvest in many fields, and it was difficult to hunt in the mountains and forests, and there was a lack of food in the cellar. I pray that your majesty can give me some help."

He portrayed the tragic situation brought about by the snow disaster with eloquence, which made many people in the hall feel sympathy. After he finished speaking, everyone focused their attention on the queen and the regent.

Lily was a little uncertain for a while, but it was not easy to wait all the time. This would expose her weakness and helplessness, so she asked: "What kind of help does Viscount Evans want?"

"This... I'm satisfied just praying for some food."

"Can you tell me the number of residents in a specific fief?" Although Lily looked petite, her math grades in the college were not bad.

"This, it's about 200,000 households." Evans hesitated for a moment and said the data.

Are there so many, Lily wondered inwardly. At this moment, if she agrees easily, will she appear weak and deceptive, but if she does not agree, will she appear mean. And if there is a snow disaster, those people will be very sad.

If you want to allocate food, at least 8 million kilograms is required. This is not a small amount. If the other party is deceiving her, how should she tell if the other party is deceiving her, she has anxiously changed her mind. But in front of the officials, he couldn't pause and hesitate for too long at this time.

After a few seconds of pause, Lily asked again.

"Master Evans, how much food do you need to save the emergency?" She decided to throw this question to the other party.

"About 15 million kilograms of food." Viscount Evans pretended to be sad.

"In this case...then..." Lily bit her lip, and after hesitating for a while, she decided to allocate grain. After all, she couldn't let the people in the empire freeze and starve in the winter.

"Ahem... Your Majesty, please take a moment." Edron finally spoke at this time, and he turned his head to Lily who was not far away and simply nodded in salute.

"May I ask Master Evans a few questions?"

"His Royal Highness, please inquire."

"Excuse me, Lord Evans has not kept food in the past? As a lord, to ensure the stability and safety of the local people and basic duties, it is hard to imagine that in the cold fief in the north, you have never considered the impact of the cold disaster. ."

"In addition, you said that there are nearly 200,000 households in the fiefdom~www.readwn.com~ Was the tax before 200,000 households paid?"

"During the empire expedition, how many people were out of your fief?"

"I remember that the Empire has a certain amount of pensions for the families of soldiers who died in battle. This is directly allocated to the local lords and then distributed. If this part is there, it should alleviate some of the situation."

"This..." Evans lowered his head and was speechless for a while, and sweat began to burst out of his forehead.

"Let the taxation department submit the tax reports of previous years." Seeing this, Edron waved his hand and asked the nearby waiter to act.

"Yes, Your Highness." Immediately, a few people walked out of the hall quickly.

"No need, Your Highness. I was nervous just now and made the wrong data. In fact, only 100,000 residents in the fief have been affected by the disaster..." He quickly defended nervously.

"Very well, an honest nobleman is commendable." Edron gently let go of this, and the attendants who were going to go out to get the tax form also paused.

"I suggested to Her Majesty the Queen to allocate 3 million kilograms of food to the territory of Evans and be escorted by the direct legion to distribute records to each household to ensure justice."

"Then follow the method of His Royal Highness." At this point, Lily also eased slightly.

Looking at the two people in the middle of the hall, the nobles below secretly talked in their hearts.

The situation was a little different from what was expected. His Royal Highness didn't seem to have any intention of attacking the Red Queen, but rather defended it. Is he really content with this position and doesn't want to be on the throne?

For a time, the dark tide surged, and the following great nobles did not dare to test it easily. As a result, today's court meeting was slowly passed through.
