But when talking about this, Naba sighed, "His Highness was fine at first, but not long ago, he suddenly said that he would directly inherit the throne and take over the management of the country from His Majesty."

Even if Romon is the confirmed heir to the throne, all the nobles know about it.But when Banika was seriously ill, it felt quite treasonous to suddenly announce such a thing.

And some people began to wonder whether Baneka's serious illness had something to do with him.

Hearing this, Lorraine also felt a little strange.

The relationship between Baneka and Romon has always been considered good. Every time they have dinner, even in front of Lorraine, Baneka carefully teaches him how to handle affairs, which can be said to be very harmonious.

Lorraine really can't think of anything that can make the relationship between them deteriorate to such an extent all of a sudden.

"Furthermore, His Highness has been handling some reported matters very strangely during this period, and has even suppressed some nobles in disguise."

If Romon simply said that he wanted to inherit the throne, although the nobles felt that something was wrong, they probably wouldn't say anything more. After all, Romon was the heir to the throne a long time ago. .

But after he took over the affairs, in addition to some incomprehensible ways of handling affairs, he also intentionally or unintentionally weakened the power of many nobles.

It was also like this, which made the nobles feel more and more whether Romon had a mental problem, so they gathered together to discuss countermeasures.

"To put it bluntly, it touches their interests." Zes interjected casually.

Zes had heard about Romon's strange way of handling affairs a long time ago, and even the prices of some food were affected by him.

Regarding these, the nobles said nothing, and they did not react until it came to them.

Dace's words sounded rude to Nappa, but that seemed to be the case.

However, these do not represent all the nobles, and some nobles have obtained corresponding benefits here, which made them say nothing.

"So what are they asking me to do? Stabilize the situation?"

As a person who has already left the royal capital, these things that happened are not what Lorraine wants to deal with at all, and he is not interested in royal affairs at all, if it is not because Naba mentioned Xueni to himself , He never thought of coming back at this time.

The nobles took so much effort to write a letter to themselves, saying that they would let themselves come back to stabilize the situation. Lorraine felt that it was a bit too vague.

"They seem to have the idea of ​​making His Highness the new successor." Naba smiled bitterly.

Except for a few nobles including him, few other people knew about this matter.

Even Lorraine belongs to Baneka's heir, but the only recognized heir to the throne is Romon. This is completely to subvert the imperial power.

And their purpose is just to get better benefits by helping Lorraine take over.

Chapter 9

dramatic things

"It turned out to be like this." Lorraine held his forehead with his palm.

After hearing Naba's words, Lorraine had a headache, and he knew why someone came to attack him.

Even Zeth, who was not a nobleman next to him, had an expression of "Oh Huo" written on his face.

Whenever this news reached the ears of the nobles standing on Romon's side, basically two out of every three wanted to prevent him from coming back.

As for Luo Meng, because he has not seen him now and does not know whether he knows about this matter, Lorraine is not sure how he views this news.

However, a person who is so anxious to inherit the throne, if he knows that the people below him want to praise other people to confront him, he probably won't give him a good face.

This is like a person climbing up a tree with great difficulty. When he is about to pick the fruit, a group of people suddenly carry another person up to grab the fruit with him. No one will feel uncomfortable.

But Lorraine always felt that Romon would not really go to the point of getting rid of himself, and always felt that there was something strange somewhere.

Lorraine also didn't know whether this group of so-called nobles who supported him were really doing it for his own good, or whether they wanted to persecute him.

Sighing, this matter can only be dealt with slowly later, looking at the haggard Naba, Lorraine still has one more thing to care about.

"Xueni's brother is called Liraya." Lorraine's tone was uncertain.

It sounded like he was asking Naba, but in fact he was confirming with the messenger.

"Yes." Almost at the same time, I got a response from Naba and the Shushi.

"What happened to him?" Lorraine looked at Naba this time.

Lorraine remembered that Naba talked about Brother Xueni's imprisonment in his letter, but since the conversation just now, he has not heard anything about him.

"That bastard..." Speaking of this, Naba had an obvious look of sadness on his face.

Because Xueni doesn't seem to have a good relationship with this brother, Lorraine has never heard Xueni mention him.

"I seem to know a little bit about this." Zeth said, "This matter has been very lively in our place recently."

Hearing Zes say this, Naba shook his head and sighed. Indeed, this incident is not a big deal compared to the previous incident, but it can still be said to be a scandal.

Zeth went on to say, "It seems that Liraya and a member of the Knights named Mukaen both took a strange medicine and put it in Lil's food in an attempt to misbehave her. "

Zeth had never known Liraya and Mkarn before.As for Li'er, one of the few geniuses in the capital, many people knew about it. When this happened, many people were surprised.

"Ah?!" Lorraine's surprised expression was the same as Zeth heard the news, and he turned his head to Naba for confirmation.

But Naba didn't seem to deny it at all, which proved that this matter was true.

Lorraine sat up straight, still unable to believe it.

No one knows who Li'er is better than him. Lorraine even relied on Li'er to help Xueni, which made Xueni's situation much better.

There are many admirers of her, but Lorraine never thought that anyone would be bold enough to do this.

In Lorraine's view, these two people can only be described as crazy.

"What happened next?"

The fact that two people were arrested already speaks volumes about the result, but Lorraine still wanted to hear what it was like.

Zeth covered his mouth with his hand slightly, not wanting Naba to see his smile, "It is said that the two guys had a date with Li'er on the same day, and they happened upon each other's drugging process, and then they fought and exposed each other. .”

Logically speaking, for this kind of scandal, even if Naba didn't take care of it, the members of the Knights would block the news. After all, once it gets out, the negative impact will be too great.

But Naihe's incident was too dramatic and could not be suppressed at all, so that the incident was more lively among the common people than among the nobles.

It was exactly like two robbers, because the spoils were not evenly divided, went to seek justice, and were caught together.Can't help but worry about their IQ.

Lorraine could see Zeth restraining his smile. If Naba hadn't been here, he might have laughed out loud.

Lorraine closed her eyes and pressed her temples, which was really unexpected.

Hearing it from others again, Naba couldn't hide the embarrassment on his face, "I went to the Iog family to plead for mercy, but they didn't want to simply let it go."

If you think about it, the Iog family's power is no less powerful than the Gretel family's. They are basically at the same level as each other, and other people would not want to solve it simply.

If it weren't for Liraya and Mkahn to stop each other, it might be hard to tell what happened after Lil.

This is already the case here in Naba, and it is estimated that the Knights will not feel too well.

"This..." Lorraine rubbed his brows, "I'll see if I can think of a way."

It was already weird that both of them had medicine at the same time.And this situation somewhat reminded Lorraine of a person.

"Then thank you, Your Highness."

Nowadays, Naba doesn't know who to ask for help. After all, no noble would want to offend the Iog family for no reason.So he could only turn to Lorraine for help, but he also knew that there were certain difficulties in this matter. Coupled with the current situation in the royal capital, it was still difficult to solve it.

During the conversation, the maid hurried over and said, "Sir, Miss Xueni is awake."

Upon hearing this, both Lorraine and Naba breathed a sigh of relief.

The maid looked at them, and then said, "Miss said she wants to see the Second Highness."

"Hey, me?" Lorraine pointed to himself, and while looking at Naba, he found that he was smiling gratifyingly at himself.

"Go."

Although Naba has not said anything all this time, he also knows something about Xueni and Lorraine.

And now, Naba can probably guess that Xueni should have gone to find Lorraine in the past few days since she disappeared.

The specific situation may be a little different, but it is similar to what Naba guessed.

Led by the maid, Lorraine entered Xueni's room again, walked to the bed, saw that Xueni had woken up, her face was still pale, but her spirit was much better than before.

Lorraine reached out and touched Xueni's forehead, and found that the fever was no longer there, "It seems to be better."

Facing Lorraine's natural look, Xueni seemed a little embarrassed and shrank her head towards the quilt.

Lorraine thought that Xueni was uncomfortable, and was about to ask, but found that Xueni kept winking at him.

Feeling something, Lorraine turned around and found that the maids next to her were covering their mouths, watching their overly intimate behavior.

Naba knows the situation of Lorraine and Xueni, but it doesn't mean that other people also know.

Lorraine scratched her head in embarrassment, and seemed to understand the tone of the maid who called him just now, as if she didn't understand why the first person Xueni wanted to see was herself.

When Lorraine was about to get up, Xue Ni stretched out his hand from the quilt and pulled his clothes.

"Come with me." Xueni's voice was still very hoarse, and because she was huddled under the blanket, her voice was even softer.

Lorraine smiled, didn't answer, and just sat back down.

In his opinion, the current Xueni is like a child recovering from a serious illness, both physically and mentally, in a state of needing care.

Chapter 10

Do not accept other people's things

Although the maids don't know what the relationship between Lorraine and Xueni is, they can roughly guess a little bit based on the actions between the two.

Even they didn't expect that Xueni, who had always maintained a cold expression before, was now like a tamed cat.

The cat is lying on the bed feeling the touch and purring sound of her tame human being.

After retreating outside the door, the maids were talking in low voices, "I heard that the young lady stayed with the Second Highness for a period of time. Looking at it now, it seems that their relationship is not simple."

During the period when Xueni didn't come home, they heard that Xueni was staying in Lorraine's mansion, but nothing happened afterwards, so they didn't think of anything.

"When Miss came back this time, His Royal Highness also carried her back."

"Did you go to look for the Second Highness during the time when Miss disappeared?"

"I think it is."

For them, apart from taking care of the mansion every day, chatting about gossip among the nobles is their greatest pleasure, and this matter is still happening in front of them now.

In the room, the maid had already retreated, but Lorraine was still a little embarrassed. Since she touched Xue Ni's forehead just now, they just stared at her, as if waiting for her next move.

Seeing the maids go out, Xue Ni poked her head out of the quilt, her cheeks were slightly rosy from the quilt.

Xue Ni's hand no longer grabbed Lorraine's clothes, and slowly touched Lorraine's hand on the bedside.

Feeling that he couldn't fully hold Lorraine's hand with one hand, Xue Ni put his hand on the back of Lorraine's hand, and stretched out his thumb to draw a circle in Lorraine's palm and rub it.

"If only there were just the two of us."

Even if he wanted to be intimate with Lorraine, Xue Ni would feel shy if someone was watching.

So there was only a short period of time in the hut in the woods, but Xueni still liked the feeling there.

Listening to Xueni's childish words, Lorraine thought, if it weren't for the sudden appearance of those people, maybe he might really stay there with Xueni for a while, at least not come back now.

Reaching out to brush Xueni's somewhat messy hair, Lorraine looked at Xueni's shoulder, "Does it still hurt now?"

Xue Ni just wanted to nod, but then thought of something, and quickly changed to shaking her head.

If it's not that I was injured, then Lorraine was injured, maybe Lorraine's situation will be worse than what I am now.

It's like a deal, but Xue Ni feels that he doesn't seem to be losing money.

"Is that Mina really just a child?" Xue Ni looked up at Lorraine.

Up to now, she still cares about the person who gave Lorraine the sachet, which made her feel like something of her own was marked by others.

I didn't expect Xueni to ask this question again, but Lorraine still explained to her, "Yes, she is still a child who can't talk very much. The sachet was put on the old one after she got the new one. Throw it to me."

If Xueni hadn't deliberately mentioned this, Lorraine would have almost forgotten that she still had that little thing on her body.

"Then don't accept things from other girls casually in the future."

These words were like taking an oath of sovereignty. Lorraine originally wanted to say something, but seeing that Xue Ni's mouth was pouting a little, brewing her dissatisfaction, she could only nod in the end.

He touched Xueni's forehead, reconfirmed that Xueni's current temperature is normal, and said, "You can rest for a while."
