Half of the throne is for you [future]

The structure of the earl's house in the small town is simple, there is no screen outside the living room, Ao Yin's eyes are separated by the hot black tea, and she can see the mint-colored short-haired woman entering from the outside at a glance.

Geerlu still had the expressionless face of Wannian. The slim white military uniform was inlaid with gold trim, and the epaulettes had been reattached. There was no cloak, so her steps were extraordinarily light.

"Whoa."

The rose arabesques on it had been broken into several knots, Ao Yin looked down at the shattered and scattered silver teacup, and slowly raised her head: "I'm so sorry, Earl, your tea set is very beautiful."

Even though he said so, his eyes never left Gelu's face for a moment.

The atmosphere that was not happy but pleasant before froze and stiffened in an instant. The earl's master didn't know whether to respond, so he had to ask the butler behind him to clean up the debris in a low voice.

At this time, I really envy those low cleaning robots, at least they won't hesitate because they sense the tense atmosphere...

Gelu didn't take a detour, stepped over the top of the robot in one step, nodded slightly to the owner of the mansion, sat down, and stated his purpose in a concise manner: "His Majesty Feng Ji sent me to handle the security work of the celebration."

Ao Yin swept across the badge on her shoulder, showing a meaningful smile: "She brought you back to the army again, General? It's really gratifying to change from a follower to a sure-fire lackey."

"..." Geerlu's indifferent expression darkened again, and his back was still straight and tense after sitting down, "Returning to the army is a joint decision of the three princes, not Her Majesty Fengji's promotion alone."

So in Gerlu's heart, he was just an ordinary subordinate who followed the regulations, not a private property directly loyal to a certain prince.

In the division of power headed by the prince and the duke, subordinates can be roughly divided into "service" and "absolute allegiance".

The latter, however, represents a firm attitude. Subordinates classified as absolutely loyal are more trusted by their bosses and promoted faster.

Ao Yin made a mocking expression, and shook her head lightly to correct her naive thoughts: "Star Neville is completely different from your situation in the alliance, so let's throw away that set of stupid ways of fairness and justice as soon as possible. Trust me, you will sooner or later One day, she was sent by Feng Ji to deal with some shady things, and then she became a member of the lackeys of the Senate... Wasn't it the same as the previous mission to eliminate black doctors in the colonial planet?"

"That's the Medical Department." Geerlu simply retorted, and suddenly felt that this reason was not enough to shake Ao Yin, so he paused and turned to her to emphasize, "The Duke of the Medical Department personally sent me an offer, and the information shows that there are Wupa tribes there. The secret meeting place, funding black doctors to conduct research on lethal chemical weapons against the night race."

Ao Yin turned her head nonchalantly, lazily supporting her side face: "Anyway, it was Feng Ji who ordered the Medical Department... Forget it, with your personality, you can't beat the Council of Elders and the Academy of Sciences, and you don't want to be sacrificed by Feng Ji as a chess piece. Now The best option is to take off the epaulets and go back the same way, I will pretend I didn’t see anything.”

Because Lin Xiu was not around, it was difficult for Gelu to analyze the true meaning of her words. After listening in silence, her light-colored eyes looked at the earl's master who had been ignored all along: "...that's what I will do in the future It's over, now my duty is to eliminate the unstable factors around the ancient battlefield. Earl, I have checked the information in recent years, and there are signs that the remnants of the Wupa tribe are active nearby."

Mr. Earl with curly hair was tracing the cuff lace. When asked, he immediately jumped up and replied: "Yes! But I haven't heard from the Wupa people in the past six months. They are very peaceful..."

"An Fen? I'm afraid I'm planning to do something at the celebration." Ao Yin stood up with a sneer and lost her mood to discuss matters. "Recently, something has been sneaking around my airship. …Gerlu, isn’t your mission to maintain law and order? I leave it to you.”

The long gray hair below the waist seemed to be longer, and it fluttered behind her in a soft arc. She left the living room without looking back, without saying hello to anyone.

Although the two of them are working together, but it seems that she is treating her as a target...

Gelu, who was vaguely aware of this, didn't get angry!

Mr. Earl is only an aristocrat from a small city, and he doesn't know much about the circle of the imperial capital. He can only guess that the relationship between the two bosses is not very good. To leave would be to defy the Council of Elders.

But Ao Yin is his immediate superior...

The earl, who was in a tangle, felt that this job was really hot!

The arrogant figure disappeared at the door, and Gelu was about to leave, so he drank the black tea brought by the attendant after taking his seat.

She doesn't like drinks with too much sugar and milk, but waste isn't in the nature of the Night Folk.

"Today is just to say hello, let's come here." Gelu gently put the tea cup back to its original place, "It's a great honor to meet all the people in charge of the celebration, and I will do my best to help the Entertainment Department."

Under the watchful gaze, the count took out a white handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Where is it, I am also acting according to the orders of my superiors... What is the general going to do next?"

Geerlu took off the particle lightsaber at his waist, and answered as a matter of course: "Duke Aoyin has provided clues. There are suspicious personnel activities around the airship. Next, soldiers will be sent to increase defense."

……

Umbrella Mushroom City is just a small place that is not popular. It has been ignored for hundreds of years, and the name will only be mentioned when the industry is liquidated at the end of the year.

Of course, everything changed after being favored by Ao Yin because of the proximity to the ancient battlefield.

A large number of high-tech facilities have been introduced, and the level of the city has been raised to a higher level in just one week.After confirming that it can handle the influx of more staff, Aoyin immediately dispatched subordinates on standby to start the renovation plan of the ancient battlefield.

Life finally came to this long-dead land, and at the same time, not only the battlefield, but also the former enemies of the Ye Clan...

In the middle of the night, Li Zhuonan was lying in his own bedroom reading the latest news, but he became more and more sleepy, and half-closed his eyes drowsily.

The airship has become the Duke's mobile residence, which is very comfortable and safe, making people unconsciously let down their vigilance.

Someone suddenly pushed the door and entered, and the action was as natural as returning to his own home.

In fact, this is indeed her home...

Ao Yin changed into a plain white long dress with the hem covering her calves. She dressed casually, but made her face more eye-catching. At a glance, she saw the news on the floating screen: "Are you also very concerned about the celebration?"

Li Zhuonan woke up immediately when she heard the voice, turned over and sat up on the bed: "Because I have nothing else to do... By the way, many strange people have come around the airship these days."

Even though it was far away and could only be observed through a telescope, it still made her vigilant.Garcia is still in a wheelchair, and in case of an accident, she will not be able to run even if she wants to.

"Probably someone from the military department." Ao Yin didn't explain much, but she was in a happy mood.

It would be a good idea to simply park the airship here and not enter the city, and let that guy Gelu come to watch the gate for her?

Li Zhuonan nodded half-understood: "It's fine, I thought there would be another attack. I saw what you did on the news, and the transformation of the ancient battlefield is progressing very quickly..."

"Anyway, I let people release any news, and you can ask me directly." Ao Yin interrupted her directly, and glanced at the thermos cup on the small table, "Why don't you greet me?"

Li Zhuonan followed her gaze to see the thermos, and after thinking for a while, she showed a clear expression: "There is still half of the milk in it that I planned to drink before going to bed. I planned to pour it for you, but think about it, it costs you anyway." It seems that there is no point in being courteous.”

Not only that, but the room was too small for hospitality, and there was no place to sit other than the bed.

The homeowner's level of greetings was really limited, so he had to turn off the news page and open a random TV program, trying to dilute the stiff atmosphere with his voice.

Ao Yin sat on the head of the bed very civilianly, the design of the long skirt just revealed a part of her smooth and delicate back.

Even if it is not considered biologically, the night race will be classified as a "subhuman race" because it is too beautiful to look like a human, right?

Now is the time for human beings to rest. Li Zhuonan resisted the urge to yawn and gave himself a refreshment: "With the current construction progress, the ancient battlefield will soon become a new city. Hahahaha, you are really capable..."

"Building is very simple, and destroying is also not difficult. What takes time is to eliminate those unstable factors." Ao Yin interrupted her hypocritical politeness, leaning on the head of the bed with her arms folded to rest.

The work and rest time of the night race is not at night, but seeing the humans who barely wake up and actually are about to fall asleep...she is also a little sleepy.

Maybe it's because you've been spending too much time recently, right?

Li Zhuonan still didn't understand why the Lord Duke would come to his place in the middle of the night, and sat beside him chatting with nothing to say: "It turns out that's the case. No wonder the imperial capital sent General Gerlu, who has combat experience, to help maintain law and order."

Ao Yin's eyes slightly opened: "Do you know it's her?"

Li Zhuonan still couldn't hold back his yawns, and explained with tears in his eyes: "...that's what the news said, and Geerlu was praised desperately, probably to make ordinary people think that the Yezu is very powerful."

...Garcia really shouldn't have taught her how to use an optical brain. In the information age, even if Ao Yin doesn't want to say something, it will be revealed by humans who are good at collecting data.

I don't know what program is playing on the floating screen, it looks lively.

Ao Yin looked there in ecstasy, and suddenly thought of some top-secret information that would never appear in the news: "The Ye people have no feelings, but because they want to take care of the ideas of the Neville people, they set up the Entertainment Department to do these redundant things. We The only way to judge whether a person is strong is to fight, and information from hearsay has no reference value at all.”

"Is it superfluous?" Li Zhuonan was stunned for a moment, and retorted with a serious smile, "I don't like watching TV either, but I think the existence of this kind of thing is very meaningful, and the Entertainment Department is a very important existence for ordinary people. "

……Is it important?

Having inherited the number of dukes for thousands of years, Ao Yin also has some memories in her heart that will not disappear even after changing generations.

For example, the earliest Entertainment Department was established for the purpose of softly controlling the Neville people spiritually and reducing resistance.

It is indeed important to consider strategically, but it has never been a happy existence.

Ao Yin's voice sounded softly in the background of the show: "What about you?"
