Summoning the Holy Sword

"The Biel family?"

Hearing this name, Malin's complexion changed slightly.

"These **** have hit their heads on you!"

Sitting opposite Marin, Li Jie's face was melancholy. She held a tea cup and stared blankly at the black tea in the cup. After that, the three were brought back to the stronghold by Rhodes and Qilian, but the soldiers who had originally blocked the entire market area disappeared. During this time Rhode also asked what happened to the three, but he could not get the exact answer. All I knew was that someone suddenly came to the rescue and rescued the soldiers. As for who the other party was, Annie did not say, nor did Li Jie. Christie was already in a state of trance at the time, and was unable to provide any valuable information. However, Rhodes was not angry. From Li Jie's sloppy attitude, he had already realized her thoughts, so Rhodes did not force the question, but let Marin come to see the situation. Anyway, the two of them He was also a friend who grew up with young children. Perhaps there are some things that outsiders like Rhodes can not intervene in.

Sure enough, Li Jie didn't have that kind of hesitation for Marlene, but she took the matter out of the way.

After listening to Li Jie's story, Ma Lin quickly realized the important surname of the whole thing. She knows Li Jie's life experience better than anyone. In fact, Li Jie's life can be regarded as a stain. Not only her own, but the stain of the entire Principality of Munn. It is no longer a day or two for the idiots in the south to bring down the Principality. Now they come to catch Li Jie, it is obvious that they intend to make a fuss about Li Jie's life.

"What are you going to do? Lijie?"

Thinking of this, Marin calmed down before asking.

"I do not know……………"

Facing a friend's inquiry, Li Jie shook her head blankly.

"Aren't you going to talk to Mr. Rod?"

"…………………I do not know………"

Li Jie lowered her head, and the melancholy expression appeared on the girl's face again.

"I just want to be an ordinary person, an ordinary girl, and an ordinary adventurer. I just want to live this kind of life, I don't want to cause trouble, and I don't want to cause trouble for others ... Mr. Rhode is already busy Now, if I trouble him with my affairs ... "

"But the problem is, now your problem is not just yours."

Malin interrupted Li Jie's speech without politeness, which made the girl look up in surprise, staring at her friend in amazement.

"Li Jie, you should also be very clear. Now your problem has reached the mercenary regiment, Annie, Christie, you can say that they were involved for no reason. Don't you plan to give them an explanation? Not only that, Judging from the current situation, since they will deal with you, it means that your identity has been exposed ......... "Speaking here, Marin paused, and then she looked at her paler and paler because she heard her words. Teenage girl. "... blood is inescapable, Li Jie. You can cover it and ignore it, but you can't deny its existence. It's the same in your body and in my body. It's like how I deny it, Others see me as the heir of the Xenia family. There are many things in this world that are not transferred by our own will, not what we think will happen. "

Having said that, Malin stood up, walked to Li Jie's side, reached out her hand, and held the girl in her arms.

"Do you remember? Lijie? At that time, there was no child in the entire palace willing to approach me except you. Although I really wanted to play with them, and I tried to behave like them, But it is undeniable that I am still the heir to the Xenia family. If I am injured or something happens because of their fault, they will not be happy. They alienate me not because they are afraid of me. It's about the family behind me. This is the truth of this world, Li Jie. At that time, only you were my friend. Don't you understand my mood? And now? You are not just you, Li Jie. Noelle. No matter how you run away, you can't erase Lizie Carrant Bellelaide—or, in other words, Lizie Carrant j. Franka Bellelaide. "

When Lie Jie heard the last name from her mouth, Li Jie's shoulders shuddered, and she clasped the girl in front of her back tightly, as if this could offset the coldness brought by the name.

What should I do?

Li Jie didn't have any clue. She just felt a mess in her brain. She didn't know what to do. Now she confessed her identity to Rod? The girl thought it was a little too early, and, in Li Jie's mind, this was her own personal matter, and it was not suitable to involve others.

"If you can't help it, then I have a suggestion."

Realizing Li Jie's hesitation, Marin said.

"In any case, the situation is indeed affecting the mercenary regiment. If it is the Biel family, then these mice will never stop there. I think we can truthfully state this to Mr. Rhode, as for Your identity can be kept secret ......... until you want to say that. I don't think it is difficult. Mr. Rhodes is very understanding. If he can understand your difficulties, then most of the time he wants to come I won't refuse. If you can't speak, then leave it to me. "

"Marlene ..."

Li Jie was silent for a moment when she heard Marin's words, then she seemed to be determined and shook her head.

"No, thank you, Marlene. But this is a problem for me, so I'll go and speak to Mr. Rhode ......... Anyway, as His Highness said, it's my own responsibility. "

At this moment, the confusion in the young girl's eyes has disappeared, replaced by an unusually firm conviction.

It's getting late.

A full moon hangs in the night sky. It is unusually beautiful and conspicuous under the support of the light band of the cruise. The stars shining in the night sky are dotted with this beautiful picture. At night, there is silence all around. But for Rhodes, the night was not calm.

At this moment he was sitting behind the desk, staring at the information in his hands intently, and on the opposite side, Qilian was holding his cheeks with his hands and staring at Rhode in front of him. The fluffy big tail dangling behind the girl looked a bit funny.

"The Biel family ..............."

Rod muttered in a low voice and let go of the information in his hand. After that, Li Jie stepped forward and confessed some circumstances to Rod, including the origin of these soldiers and their purpose. Of course, Li Jie didn't get entangled in her own life, but Rhode also knew that it was enough to let Li Jie take the initiative to speak up. As for the girl's life, since Li Jie didn't want to say, Rhode also Don't rush to ask. However, from the fact that the other party had to send someone to catch Lijie, it can be seen that her life experience is definitely not simple.

As for the Pierre family, Rhodes is no stranger. In the Principality of Muen, they have always been the backbone of what they call "reformers." For this group of people, their ultimate purpose was to end the royal rule of the Principality of Munn, and then establish a new ruling class similar to the parliamentary system of the Kingdom of Light. And since they are going to catch Li Jie, it shows that Li Jie must be helpful for their "career" of "overthrowing the power of the king to read and rule". After all, this group of nobles in the south is no better than the north. Most of them are businessmen. They have no interests and benefits, and they will never do it.

It seems that history has not changed.

Looking at the record in front of him, Rhode reached out his finger and tapped the desk's desktop. The crisis in the Principality of Munn has been compounded internally and externally. On the surface, this is another conspiracy of the Parliament of the Light to try to dismantle the Principality of Munn with internal resistance. But looking at it from a player's point of view, it is a completely different thing-after Lydia came to power, the "reformers" were far less powerful than before. The Archangel has always been to these insurgents trying to subvert the country. In the blow, it can be said that the reformers have reached the most dangerous stage. This is the last threshold for the royalists and reformers-if the royalists win, the reformers will be uprooted. However, if the reformists want to lead the Wang Dang to lose both ends without regard to the consequences, then it is naturally not good for the principality.

It is precisely because of this background of life and death that the reformers carried out this series of actions. Together with the Parliament of the Light Country, they tried to create a series of actions by disrupting order, raising prices and attacking border merchant ships. The turmoil within the Principality attempted to shake and overthrow the rule of the Kings. Of course, they themselves are holding the banner of "rebellion against the royal family's violent read rule", but what Rhodes sees is no different from Litong Foreign Countries.

Because of this, although Li Jie did not say her identity, but Rhodes is not a fool, not to mention he is familiar with this history, plus Marin's hint, you can understand Li Jie sure without asking Rod It is a very important figure in the Wang Dang, at least it must be an important existence that will affect the "great cause" of the reformists. Now that Li Jie's position is known, her life experience is not very good. Regards ... Anyway, no matter how you look at it, she can't be the illegitimate child of Grand Duke Lydia.

However, the attack was a wake-up call for Rod. Li Jie's life may be the reason for her attack, but the Starlight Mercenary Corps itself may be another target of the attack. Chavan, the leader of the dark tooth, reminded Rhodes that if the Light Council had sent someone to participate in the Midsummer Festival, it might have been directed at Rhodes. Recalling that he led Starlight to overturn a series of abacus of the Light Country Council, this inference is not a delusion, but the reformers who have always been proud of the Light Country doglegs will let this go to their masters. A good opportunity for attentiveness? Not to mention that although Rhodes smashed the land of the Light Country, it also affected the interests of the reformers. They could not just ignore it like that. Fortunately, the distance between Pafield and those Yankees was a short while. It's not so easy to get involved.

"Master, do you already have an idea?"

Seeing Rhodes stop motion, Qilian immediately asked, but facing Qilian's inquiry, Rhodes slightly shook his head.

"At the moment we don't have much clue, but I don't think we need to worry too much. Pafield is not their place. Those idiots want to do things here is not easy. Next, we must first manage our own strength. ,and………"

Speaking of which, Rhode paused, and seemed to remember something, and then he stood up.

"From tomorrow on, we will continue to focus on strengthening the mercenary regiment."

Then Rhodes made a decision.
