Aesop quickly rushed to the king's bedroom.Pushing open the door of the bedroom, he saw Joseph sitting at the desk and turning his head to smile at him: "Here you come? It's not too big to tell you something."

It doesn't look like it's about himself or Naib.Aesop secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He walked over and sat beside Joseph: "What's the matter?"

Joseph stretched out his hand and affectionately helped Aesop tidy up the white scarf tied around his neck, and said with a smile, "It's a trivial matter. I plan to deal with the parliament. Don't worry, I don't want you to be my military adviser. I just want to To attack a person, you need to invite him to the palace and arrest him."

Aesop was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Joseph to do it so quickly.During the day, he heard Neb tell Joseph's secrets, and learned that Joseph had the experience of overriding the parliament, and that he was currently checking and balancing with the parliament, and there were potential conflicts, so he guessed that Joseph might attack the parliament.But he didn't expect it to be so fast.

He asked softly, "Who is it?"

"Earl Harley Brown." Joseph put his fingers under his chin, put his elbows on the table, and smiled with a pair of good-looking eyebrows. "Specifically, this friend is an Englishman who is suspected of secretly communicating with foreign countries. The current service In the parliament, I do work related to construction and civil engineering. I can’t remember the specifics. What I need you to do is: tomorrow, find a reason to trick this person into the palace, and then arrest him. The specific method You decide, the palace is now your territory, I am not good at it."

Aesop was shocked when he heard that name.Isn't this earl the one who recommended Nabu to the palace?He really is British?But in this way, Naib's external support will be cut off.If there is no way out, how will the partner improve his plan?he does not know.

But he couldn't show fear and hesitation on his face, and he had to agree to Joseph's request.He is now on Joseph's side, and such a move is undoubtedly beneficial to Joseph.So he nodded: "Okay, I will deal with it. Is there any detailed information on this person? I want to take a look."

Joseph picked up a piece of information at hand, and it seemed that he had already prepared it.But he didn't pass the information directly to Aesop, but looked at Aesop and raised his eyebrows: "So simply agree to my request? Don't you have any questions to ask, such as why did I arrest this person? Another example, why am I in such a hurry to ask you for help?"

"..." Aesop was dumbfounded.He did have questions about these questions, but he forgot to ask them because he was not good at expressing them and was in a hurry to ask his most curious questions.

"Let me explain to you. The first question is about why I want to arrest this person." Joseph changed his posture, crossing his left leg over his right leg, "Actually, this person's position in the parliament is not important , the role played is very general. But I want to let the public understand through the evidence he obtained from foreign countries that there are mixed people in the parliament, so as to reduce the credibility of the parliament in the eyes of the public.

"As for why we are looking for you in such a hurry, it is because we need to act as soon as possible, before he realizes something is wrong. And you also need to deploy. Let's start as soon as possible, I am looking forward to your performance."

After listening to Joseph's words, Aesop was silent for a while. "Why leave it to me?" he asked.

"Because you're a very calm person, dear." Joseph smiled.

These words surprised Aesop, and he opened his eyes slightly to look at Joseph.Joseph smiled: "Haven't you found out?" The man said, reaching out to caress Aesop's face, speaking in an elegant and affectionate tone, "You may be much more powerful than you imagined. Although simple, you face When dealing with major issues, you are calm, serious, and decisive. You have to believe that you can do most of the things you want to do. Since you were born, you have been an aristocratic young master for more than 20 years, but you can quickly adapt to the conditions here. Life and political affairs, adapting to me, an alpha who suddenly appeared in your life, is pretty good. I heard about your situation before I met you, and thought you would come here and cry."

Is that so?Aesop asked himself in his heart.He believed in Joseph's judgment, but he also knew that when he and Joseph got married, he made a big mistake—that dagger.He didn't know if he was up to it.

"Believe in yourself." Joseph seemed to see Aesop's hesitation, he stood up, and placed a kiss on Aesop's forehead, "You will definitely be able to do it, I still have a lot of things to ask you to do. "

Aesop was caught off guard by his kiss, but his heart was filled with a touch of sweetness because of the intimate gesture of the two of them.He raised his head and looked at Joseph: "Actually, I have always wanted to ask you, you didn't like the look of the previous queen, so what do you want your queen to be like?"

He is now determined to stand on Joseph's side and no longer hesitates.Then what he has to do next is to become what Joseph wants him to be, to become the person who can stand upright beside Joseph with his chest upright.He wanted to eliminate danger for Joseph, and he also wanted to make himself worthy of Joseph.

"If I say that my ideal queen is like you, you will think I'm being perfunctory." Joseph smiled. He put his hands behind his back and stood there thinking for a moment, "Do you still remember that before we met, I asked someone to send you A white rose for you? It is innocent, pure, respectful, and humble, and this may be what I want. Of course, more importantly, I hope to have a wife who can follow and is willing to follow me."

"...Hmm." Aesop lowered his head, thoughtfully, "What should I say? I will work hard?"

"Don't be so like my student, it's been less than a day since we last made love, my dear Aesop." Joseph made a harmless joke, "It's getting late, go back and rest early, and do the hard work tomorrow. Remember to take the information. You have to worry about it just after the estrus period is over, thank you for your hard work."

"It's okay." Aesop shook his head - after all, he is still young, even if the mark and estrus period have just passed, his body can completely bear it.

He reluctantly said goodbye to Joseph, took the materials and went back to his room.When he walked into the room, he saw that his padlocked suitcase was still lying quietly in the corner of the room. The simple black suitcase seemed inconspicuous, but it had a sense of presence in his eyes.He walked over quickly, took out the key to open the box, took out the familiar notebook, and turned to the pages where he wrote "Assassination Plan" by himself.He flipped through the pages, his fingers slid across the paper on which he had written his countless thoughts and hesitation, and finally tore off those few pages, and burned them in front of the candle.

Those things that you are determined to give up, just give up completely.There is no need to look back, and there is no need to look back.

the next day.

After a lot of consideration and planning last night, Aesop finally decided on a plan of action: it was very simple. He just used the excuse that a certain part of the palace was in disrepair for a long time and needed to be repaired. Arrests will be implemented locally.The gimmick of the location was carefully chosen by Aesop, where the location is relatively remote, the staffing can be trusted, and most importantly, it is far away from where Naib works and will not be hindered.

After finishing this plan, Aesop leaned back on the chair, sighed helplessly, and began to think about the countermeasures after Nebu came to the door.At that time, if he explained to Naib that rejecting Joseph in this situation would make things worse, would Naib believe him?Can he convince Neb?After losing his way of retreat, will Naib speed up the assassination process due to changes in the situation?Will Naibu no longer trust him?

Coincidentally, Joseph's parliamentary battle chose Earl Brown to sacrifice the flag, which made the situation a lot troublesome.He currently has no ability to give pointers to Joseph's situation, so he can only hope that everything goes well.

The people sent out by his subordinates moved quickly and reported back before noon, saying that Earl Brown had agreed to the invitation and would come at three o'clock in the afternoon.Aesop told his subordinates to retreat, thinking that Earl Brown had promised quickly, and he must have not heard the news of the danger, and thought he was still on the British side.But the situation is completely different from before, as is the case with the ever-changing political situation. This Earl Brown has worked hard as an insider in France for more than ten years, but once exposed, it will only take a few days to be uprooted.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the count arrived on time.Aesop wore a low-key pure white dress to greet him. After the simple greetings, the two chatted about each other while walking towards the side hall.

"How's the outside going?" Aesop walked forward and asked an ambiguous question casually.Earl Brown is a middle-aged man who looks to be in his 40s, with a square face and a gentle and generous appearance, the kind of appearance that is least likely to cause people to be wary.Hearing this question, he paused: "Your Highness lives in the palace, so you don't hear too much outside news, right? The outside is very good, and the border is peaceful. However, it seems that after His Highness got married, some of my colleagues complained about His Highness." .People's words are scary, Your Highness should be careful."

Hearing these words, Aesop's heart moved.He thought of the "sweeping blow" given him by the drama in Parliament a few days after the wedding, when he learned the story of the former queen.The people in front of him now still regard him as a companion, so the other party should give him a kind reminder.He frowned and nodded: "Okay, I see."

"Your Highness, we're here." As soon as Aesop finished speaking, the guards following him came up and reminded him in his ear.This was the signal that Aesop had previously set, and it meant that the two had arrived at the ambush location. As long as Aesop gave an order, the soldiers in ambush around would immediately attack.

Aesop's heart tightened, and he felt his heart suddenly become heavy.A good man who is loyal to the British royal family, his fate is now in his own hands. As long as Aesop orders, the man will spend the rest of his life in prison.Obviously it's just a man who met once, but if you attack him, you can make yourself feel so uncomfortable.If he wanted to attack Joseph by himself... Aesop didn't dare to think about it.

He restrained himself, raised his hand high, and then waved it down.That is the signal that symbolizes "hands-on".

The next moment, the soldiers ambushing around suddenly appeared and rushed forward.The surrounded man was caught before he even had time to escape. The captured man seemed to have realized something. He didn't continue to struggle or argue fiercely. He just looked at Aesop with disbelief in his eyes.The look in his eyes made Aesop's heart tremble, but fortunately, he was taken down soon.

That's what politics is all about.Aesop looked at the back of him being escorted away, thinking ecstatically.

But before he had time to be sentimental for a long time, he suddenly noticed—in the corner of his sight, there seemed to be a dark shadow hiding in the dark.At that moment, he had a very strong intuition: that guy was looking at him!

Aesop took a breath, and his eyes quickly swept over. The black shadow reacted quickly and immediately disappeared from his sight.But just this one glance, Aesop's heart was suspended——

It's even worse than if the guy was Naib.

Because that person is not Naibu.
