"Isn't this very smart? Why can't you understand such a trivial matter?" Emperor Rudelun said with a pun, glanced at Lorraine, raised his hand and breathed a sigh of relief at the huge diamond ring on his finger, and then pinched it
He wiped it with the corner of his clothes. Then he lifted it up and looked at the sun to carefully check the translucency of the priceless gem.
"Ah?" Lorraine was stunned for a moment. He couldn't help but feel strange in his heart. Because he vaguely felt that although Emperor Rudelun was reminding him, there seemed to be a trace of guilt hidden deep in his words.
This puzzled Sir Alex: What on earth does this old guy want to do?
At this time, Emperor Rudrun couldn't help but smile heartily when he saw Lorraine in deep thought, then reached out and patted him on the shoulder, saying: "Earl, if you are serious about business, go to Russell. I just gave myself a break.
It’s been a month’s holiday. I need to take a good rest.”
As he spoke, he raised his head to look at the sky, and then said with a brisk smile: "Ha, it's just in time. Don't leave today. It's a rare opportunity to have a meal with me."
Then he turned around and said to the palace steward beside him: "By the way, Snape, when you are setting up the arrangement, drag Leo over to me.
You know, the profound lessons of the Fantino Museum are stored there. If you don't hurry up, I may have to go next door to look for my collection."
The old palace manager agreed, and then left with a happy smile on his face - all the people of the empire were not ashamed of the time when Mr. Lei pretended to be a thief and looted the Museum of Great Artifacts of the Holy See of Light.
On the contrary, he is extremely proud of it.
Under the warm reception of His Majesty the Emperor, Lorraine came out of the palace in the evening.
But when the carriage drove out of the palace, he was still confused. Rudrun didn't talk about any political affairs all day long, and always kept telling Catherine about his heroic deeds of spring hunting. Whenever he really couldn't bear it,
He couldn't help it anymore, and when he wanted to bring it up, the old man changed the subject extremely cunningly.
It seems that he really gave himself a big vacation as he said.
Although Sir Luo was full of questions, he couldn't do anything if he didn't say anything.
But Lorraine knew that what Rudrun said meant something, but she couldn't figure out what Emperor Rudrun meant.
Not only was Lorraine confused, but Catherine was also deep in thought for a while while sitting in the carriage. Although she was also a qualified politician, she couldn't figure out what her uncle meant that Lorraine didn't understand the little thing.
The only ones who are happy are of course Chairman Leo and Melina.
The two of them played the game of treasure hunt in the palace. If the loyal palace manager hadn't kept a close watch, the things that Ru Delun had worked so hard to hide would have either been swept away or completely destroyed.
Even so, they gained a lot and threw a huge and heavy package in the carriage. Lorraine could hardly lift it due to its heavy weight.
Moreover, Leo and Melina were leaning against each other. They were holding a bunch of gadgets in their hands and were whispering something.
Not only that, they were also extremely vigilant, raising their heads from time to time and taking a look at the two people here.
The residence of Archduke Julius is right next door to the palace. In fact, if you take a shortcut, you can run there in ten minutes. However, to walk normally, you have to leave the palace first, go around the avenue, and then turn to the main entrance here, which is extremely complicated, so
Although the two courtyards are very close to each other, it took us twenty minutes to get back to the Grand Duke's Mansion.
When Lorraine walked in, she found that except for Lorena and Hilmelia, who had important matters and couldn't leave, all her girlfriends were here. The hall was filled with people.
After not seeing each other for many days, they were also suffering from lovesickness, and they were always worried about Lorraine.
Therefore, when they saw Sir Lord Lorraine, the girls let out a sweet cry, and rushed forward without any reason to check Lord Lorraine over and over to see if their boyfriend was missing a piece of meat, and they exchanged pleasantries with each other.
During the chat, Catherine was confused, so she told Adele and Fiona everything about today's experience, hoping that they could help her come up with ideas.
But that His Majesty is her uncle, and if she still doesn't understand something, it's even less likely that the rest of the people will understand it.
Even with Deipole's IQ, he couldn't figure out what Rudrun was referring to.
The girls put forward all kinds of guesses, and after careful discussion, they were all rejected. They could only lament: It is true that the king's heart is unpredictable. These political people are very powerful. If you say a casual word, everyone will have to guess.
The first half of the day was really not a human life.
Later, Lord Lorraine was also annoyed. He slapped the table and said angrily: "Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore, I will go find someone who knows clearly tomorrow.
Now sleep~!”
Catherine glanced at Lorraine with her charming big eyes, stretched out deliberately and said: "Eating in the palace is the most tiring thing, take a shower and go to bed."
Adele and the others understood immediately, glanced at Lorraine, and said lazily: "That's right. After flying in the sky all night, our bodies are stiff. Let's go together."
Deipole nodded immediately and gave Lord Lorraine a wink.
Lord Lorraine giggled happily - this is Zhu Bajie fighting the spider spirit... Bah, bah, bah, Lord Luo fighting the vixen.
Just when the atmosphere in the room gradually became ambiguous, Princess Lulu suddenly jumped up and said, "I want to take a shower with my sisters."
Catherine and Adele's expressions froze at the same time, and then they looked at each other expressionlessly.
Deipole raised the corner of his mouth, smiled reluctantly, and said: "This, that... that's right, okay~!"
Deipole rolled his eyes, took the idea into consideration, and said: "Then Lorraine will finish washing in a while, let's go together."
"Okay, okay~!" Catherine and Adele nodded immediately and clapped their hands to praise Deipole's quick wit.
A break is better than a wedding. Catherine, Deipole and Lorraine have been separated for almost a month. They finally see their boyfriends, and their feelings are as hot as fire.
But they never expected to meet such a charming cousin. At this moment, they finally understood why Lord Lorraine complained so much about this cousin who came to his door.
This girl is really good at doing bad things.
Princess Lulu looked at the expressions of Catherine and the others and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment and thought for a moment. Then she seemed to suddenly understand something, and her pretty face suddenly turned red like a ripe apple.
For a moment, he was so ashamed that he glanced around in a panic, and then said dryly: "Oh, I remembered, I forgot to take something, you don't have to wait for me."
As he spoke, there was a burst of dry laughter, and then, without daring to look back, he ran quickly to his room. As if there was a dog chasing him behind him, he ran very fast.
Deipole watched her slim back disappear outside the door. Finally he couldn't help but laugh out loud and said: "This girl is quite interesting..."
The other people also laughed lightly.
When Lorraine saw that the most annoying person was gone, she coughed twice, then stood up with her knees pressed, and said, "What...what? I'll go first."
Leo suddenly raised his hand and shouted: "Boss, wait for me. I got several good things, just right for playing in the bathtub.
Yeah, it hurts, it hurts, Melina, why are you pinching me?"
While Leo was talking, he felt pain in his ribs. He turned around and saw Melina standing behind him with her head lowered. She pinched a piece of fat fiercely with her little hands, with an expression on her face that she hated the iron.
Melina watched Leo grit his teeth and suddenly realized where her sisters were looking. This little girl who considered herself the fifth most gentle and virtuous woman in the world had a pure and bright smile on her face. She said: "Leo, you said you want to
I am playing with you."
Leo scratched his head and said doubtfully: "Did I say that?"
"I said it, I said it." Milena simply dragged Leo upstairs and said hurriedly: "I have said it several times."
Leo resisted Melina's tug and said: "But I still want to take a bath with the boss. You don't know, I got a model of a Xive sailboat today. It will be very beautiful in the bathtub."
Melina had a straight face and said seriously: "You can't come?"
"Come, come." Seeing Melina gritting her teeth, Leo instantly made the wisest choice.

The next day, when the commanded sunlight shone into the room through the glass window, Lorraine's eyes moved, opened her eyes and woke up.
Lorraine, who had not yet woken up, looked blankly at the sky above her head. After being confused for a while, she remembered that she was now in Ruman City. She had done very pornographic, violent and very inappropriate things last night, and today she still
There's business to do.
Lorraine carefully pinched the round and white arm that supported her chest. Adeling beside her mumbled vaguely: "I'm tired, I want to sleep."
Then he turned over, leaving Lorraine with a jade back as smooth as gelatin.
Lorraine carefully got out of the bed, stepped on the soft carpet with her bare feet, picked up her nightgown from the floor, opened the room and slipped out.
It was quiet in the back house, no one was there, it seemed that the maids knew that they didn't have to get up too early today.
Lorraine had to walk out of the third floor before she found a maid who was busy cleaning in the living room and told her: "Go and tell the housekeeper and take my business card to the Prime Minister's Office. I am going to visit Russell today.
"
The little maid was also frightened, and ran out without looking back after receiving the order.
Lorraine raised her head and went to the window. It was just past seven o'clock, and she had slept for less than five or six hours.
"Is this time?" Lord Lorraine hesitated for a moment, then made up his mind and said, "Of course I'm going to catch up on my sleep."
When Lord Lorraine appeared in the living room neatly dressed, it was already three o'clock in the morning. He looked full of energy and all fatigue was gone.
Not only Lorraine, Catherine, and Adele also looked radiant, as if they had just done a full set of moisturizing skin care.
But Princess Lulu didn't seem to have slept well, and she showed a little tiredness, but she still put her cousin Lorraine into the carriage together with Catherine, and watched him leave the Grand Duke's Palace and go to the Prime Minister's office.
Prime Minister Russell's usual place of work is also close to the palace.
In front of the Prime Minister's Office, there is a long line of carriages and horses, and there is a constant flow of people. There are more than a hundred carriages parked in front of the door. They are lined up along the road with no end in sight. The idle carriage drivers gather together to chat and chat.
A few bastards who were still very familiar with each other were sitting cross-legged in an open space, playing cards. Next to them were a dozen more boring guys watching them play cards.
In the middle, people kept leaving and people kept joining.
Despite this, the carriages parked on the side of the road in an orderly manner.
But occasionally there are big names who will jump in line unscrupulously and rush directly through the traffic. Every time this happens, no one dares to complain.
Because generally those who dare to jump in line must be sitting in the car with big shots in Ruman City. They are far more than they can afford to offend.
This is the carriage used by Lorraine.
Since the Lord's hands and eyes are very good, there is no need to go to the capital of the empire to run projects, so Nai'an Province does not have an office here, let alone any carriages.
Therefore, after the lordship arrived, out of frugality, he could only temporarily borrow Catherine's carriage to travel.
In other words, the carriage bears the royal emblem of Archduke Julius. And the driver is also a member of the royal family. That guy really upholds the unique arrogance of the royal family.
Although there were so many people waiting in front of the door, he drove the carriage, changed lanes, cut through the traffic, and stopped in front of the Prime Minister's Office.
At this time, opposite him, a horse-drawn carriage also drove over, cutting into the queue.
Two cars were going towards each other and were about to get stuck on the road. When the other car saw the sign on the car, they wisely stopped and then stepped aside.
This is the unique scenery in Ruman City, a different kind of comparison.
As he passed by, Lorraine glanced at the other party's family coat of arms. It looked like it was a duke from the royal family, but who it was, Lord Lorraine, a country bumpkin who knew nothing about heraldry, couldn't tell.
The carriage calmly stopped in front of the gate of the Prime Minister's Palace. Under the surprised eyes of everyone, Lorraine got out of the car and walked into the Prime Minister's Palace.
Such a big-name style attracted the attention of people around him, wondering who this young man was.
"Some young man's duke?" a normal person would think.
"The prime minister's cronies?" Civil servants will think about it from this perspective.
"The emperor's illegitimate son." Such an idea would pop up in the mind of an idler with the spirit of gossip burning in his bones.
In the end, a knowledgeable person acted like a master and explained to everyone: "A bunch of idiots, the family emblem is obviously Grand Duke Julius. Who else can be a young man in his twenties who can come out of Grand Duke Julius' house at this time?"
There is only the chief pretty boy of our empire."
"Lorraine~!" Everyone suddenly realized.
"Didn't it mean that he was pushed to Maple Leaf Danlin to be the polished commander, and that kid is back again?"
"I'll tell you quietly. Stay away from him these two days." The man with a lot of money said mysteriously.
Everyone's curiosity was caught like a fish, and they all came closer and asked: "What's wrong?"
The little clerk in this huge organization raised his index finger, pointed at the ceiling, and said, "I don't know what the above said."
Lorraine naturally couldn't hear these words. In fact, he was stopped as soon as he walked into the gate of the Prime Minister's Office.
The person who reached out to stop Lord Lorraine and greeted him enthusiastically was also an acquaintance, Russell's personal secretary, Viscount Friedrich.
A young man about the same age as Lorraine.
Lorraine had met him once in Julian City, and knew that he was Russell's confidant. He was from a noble family, and he looked more like a pretty boy than Lord Lorraine, both in appearance and temperament.
Viscount Friedrich was very humble when facing Lord Lorraine, who was three or four years younger than him. He did not have the pride of a successful young man. The first thing he said when he saw Lorraine was: "Your Excellency, I finally see you again."
Thank you, I'm so happy."
Lorraine also smiled warmly and said: "Me too, His Excellency Viscount Friedrich, I made an appointment this morning and want to see the Prime Minister."
"The Prime Minister already knows," Viscount Friedrich said politely: "But it is very unfortunate that the Prime Minister went to the grassroots with someone early this morning. It was a planned trip."
The old guy is not here, Lorraine thought to himself.
Viscount Friedrich said: "Before going out, the Prime Minister ordered me to be here to wait for your arrival. If you have any time, you can tell me first and I will tell the Prime Minister word for word."
Lorraine curled her lips. The matter involved the highest level of military secrets. Of course, she couldn't tell a little secretary casually.
Russell certainly knew such a simple truth. This old guy left his secretary waiting for him, obviously he didn't want to say anything to him.
Lorraine curled her lips and decided not to ask for trouble anymore. She laughed dryly and said, "If the Prime Minister comes back, please tell me that I have already been here."
Viscount Friedrich was obviously relieved and smiled happily: "Of course, please don't worry."
Lorraine smiled and shook her head and said, "If you have time, I would like to invite you to have a drink with me."
Viscount Friedrich was stunned for a moment, sighed helplessly, and said regretfully: "I want to do it too, but the Prime Minister is not here. As a secretary, I cannot leave the Prime Minister's Office. If I have time another day, I will take the initiative to invite the Deputy Commander-in-Chief.
.”
Lorraine shrugged and thought to himself: This guy is also trying to avoid suspicion, which is difficult to handle.
After saying goodbye, Lorraine turned around and prepared to leave the Prime Minister's Office.
Looking at Lorraine's back, Viscount Friedrich hesitated for a moment. He still had a great future, and it was not worth having an affair with Lord Lorraine because of official duties. This gentleman would undoubtedly be one of the most powerful people in the empire in the future.
"Your Excellency, Lorraine." Viscount Friedrich suddenly stopped him. He walked up to Lorraine in a few steps, looked around cautiously, and said in a low voice: "Actually, I have heard a little bit about your Excellency.
It would be more effective for you to find someone else than His Majesty or the Prime Minister for this kind of matter."
Lorraine was stunned and asked doubtfully: "For example?"
"For example..." Viscount Friedrich turned his head to the side of his head and looked at the spire of a building in the distance outside the window. He winked at Lorraine and said, "Professionals~!"
Following his line of sight, Lorraine saw a row of buildings peeking out from between the trees in the distance, which was the military headquarters.
Lorraine suddenly understood, patted Viscount Friedrich's arm affectionately, and said: "Thank you for reminding me, I will remember it."
After leaving the gate of the Prime Minister's Office, Lorraine secretly sighed in her heart. Sure enough, all the civil servants in this mixed agency are not simple.
Stay away from them when you see them in the future. (To be continued)!~!
