Deipole turned angrily and looked out the window, avoiding the sight of Lorraine and Adeline, frowning, wringing his hands tightly, and a blush suddenly appeared on his pale face.
There was silence in the room for a long time. Adeline was afraid that Lorraine would be impatient, so she leaned over and patted Lorraine's hand.
Nowadays, Lorraine will not be impatient when it comes to beauty, especially if it is a type that Lorraine's family does not have.
You know, from the earliest primitive society of mankind, every man has a dream of a harem, otherwise no one would think of becoming an emperor.
Throughout history for thousands of years, all those ambitious people who gathered a group of younger brothers to prepare to be listed on the Imperial Exchange were said to be lonely and few. The most important thing before joining the yellow robe was to establish a harem first.
Looking at the harem system of the Tang Dynasty, other emperors were not much different from this one. There were one queen, four wives, nine concubines, nine concubines, nine beauties, nine talented people, twenty-seven Baolin, and two imperial concubines.
Seventeen people, twenty-seven women.
This is still an officially recognized status, belonging to the mistress level or above.
Even those wild emperors who did not even have a grass-roots team had to choose a few common women to build a harem before they could afford the yellow robe.
And the most important thing is that all of these are not spent on your own money, but all consumed from public funds~! You can still reimburse as much as you want, not like the current British royal family, which reimburses you for what you spend, is strict, and will do it at every turn.
The kind that is scolded by a lot of people.
Spending other people's money to play with beautiful girls is a good thing. As long as you are not a fool, who wouldn't want to do it?
As a careerist and hedonist, based on the belief that people live to eat and sleep, Lorraine has always had an appreciation for stunning beauties.
Under the close supervision of Catherine and Adele, Lorraine did not dare to look at their pair of personal elf maids, even though Lorraine had always had an academic interest in the physical structure of the elf race (Lorraine
Sir Alex can swear to God that he is really the conscience of heaven and earth, and it is really just a purely academic research and discussion)
They would only eat a little tofu from Vera, and they wouldn't care. First of all, because Vera is charming and innocent, except for comparing wages with Lorraine, she has nothing to do with anyone.
Secondly, this is because Vera and Lorraine were older than the three of them. Before Catherine and Adele met, Vera, the personal maid, had long been Lord Lorraine's most caring person.
As a successful time-traveler, he is constantly controlled by his wife. After being around for so long, he has not even finished a high-end entertainment dungeon like a brothel that does not require a group and can be cleared by just one person.
.
Therefore, every time he dreams back at midnight, Lord Lorraine's harem dream will always quietly ignite in his heart.
Based on the theory that it is better for a concubine to steal, to steal than not to steal, and not to be able to steal, it is better not to even dare to steal, Lorraine generously admired the sick beauty in front of her, of course her eyes must be serious, Adeling was still sitting next to her.
.
When Adeline clapped Lorraine's hand and smiled apologetically at Lorraine, Lorraine naturally understood what she meant. Lorraine would not say that not only did I not bother you, but I also enjoyed it.
Lorraine showed a reassuring smile to Adeling, indicating that she was fine. Adeling nodded gratefully to Lorraine.
Deipole turned his head, looked at Adeling, showed a plain smile, and said: "Adeling, am I like this all my life, just sitting in the room, watching the sunrise and sunset, looking at the flowers?
The flowers bloom and fade, and they stay like this until they die of old age.”
Seeing that Deipole spoke plainly, and thinking about such a girl staying in front of the window until her death, Adeline felt a pain in her heart, especially when she knew that Deipole was still a person who couldn't stand being dull and lonely.
As a woman, such a life is undoubtedly torture for her.
Adeling sighed helplessly, stroked Deipole's long hair, and said: "Deipole, Deipole, what else can you do? If you leave Lorraine, you don't even have the guarantee of life.
Are you going to die with a crime like this? It's unfair to you. We are all just pawns. What's the point of working hard for so many years and suffering so much?"
Deipole bit her thin lips tightly. A week ago, she was still ambitious to conquer a piece of the sky of her own. A week later, there was no place for her in the whole world, and she could only live under the protection of her former enemies.
Be a caged bird.
No matter how resourceful Deipole was, she was just a young woman. After hearing Adeling's words, she couldn't bear it anymore. She leaned against Adeling softly and buried her head in Adeling's chest. Suddenly,
He burst into tears.
First, soft shoulders shrugged and sobbed softly, and the crying became louder and louder. After a while, Deipole hugged Adeline and cried loudly, and tears fell in big drops, falling on Adeline's chest.
On the front lapel.
Adeline also hugged Deipole sadly, caressing her back with one hand, letting Deipole vent her feelings and wet her own chest.
Although Lorraine is not a good bird, the way Adeline and Deipole look like two beauties embracing each other and sharing the same sorrow, and there is a sense of poignancy that can make Lorraine suffocate, but Lorraine still has eyes, and she sighs heavily.
After taking a breath, he stood up and patted Adeline on the shoulder, smiling warmly at her, indicating that he was her firm support.
Adeline smiled gratefully at Lorraine.
As if he wanted to cry out all the grievances and unwillingness he had felt over the years, Deipole kept moaning for a long time, until it completely soaked Adeline's chest, and finally turned into sobs.
Lorraine saw that Deipole's eyes were swollen from crying, and his pale face was flushed with excitement. He had a strange and morbid beauty. The young girl with a full body next to Lorraine had such a coquettish beauty.
, he has never experienced it up close.
Adeline raised her hand to wipe Deipole's tears, but she didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only turn to Lorraine for help.
Lorraine moved the chair closer to the two of them, looked at Deipole and said: "Miss Deipole, I think you already understand your current situation. What I want to say is that you are still young, and you still have a few years left.
In ten years, there is great youth.
And the war that just passed, even without you, would have always happened. You, at most, only played a driving role in it. According to my understanding of the Scorpion King, he was ambitious.
But the half-orcs have no knowledge, maybe you just let the war start a few years earlier.
There is nothing wrong with this to me, and even if I am not afraid of you being angry, I would like to thank you."
After saying that, Lorraine observed Deipole's reaction, but Adeline glared at Lorraine first. Deipole's eyes at Lorraine were no longer cold, but with a hint of curiosity and a sense of humor.
get angry.
Adeling said softly: "Lorraine..."
Deibole looked up at Adeling and shook his head, patted Adeling's hand and said: "It's okay, Adeling, let him talk, I really want to hear it."
Then Deipole looked at Lorraine, raised his head slightly, glanced at Lorraine sideways, and said: "I want to know, I fought with you, at least I made you very embarrassed, I don't know why you still thank me
What?"
Lorraine looked at Deipole and smiled slightly. To deal with such a proud girl, it was useless for Adelin to comfort her blindly. These career-oriented women knew very well what they wanted.
They know what they want to do.
It was just comfort, but it could not open up Deipole's heart. Lorraine knew that she had to stimulate this little girl hard and make her realize that there is still a mountain high in order to stop. Otherwise, Lorraine would
Just wait until Deipole spends his days looking for life and death.
Lorraine is also experienced in dealing with such career-oriented women. This is how Lorraine dealt with Catherine, the first strong woman in the Ruman Empire. Catherine is different from Adele and Hilmeria. She does not coax or coax.
After persuasion, she would stick to her point of view. Lorraine could only reason with her and clearly point out where she was wrong, and then Catherine would be obedient.
Seeing Deipole gnashing his teeth and glaring at him, he was much more energetic than the sickly look just now.
When dealing with Deipole, you must not give in to Deipole just because she is a sickly beauty. I guess she will not be a gentleman. If Deipole thinks that she is right when dating someone with a pleasant appearance, Lorraine will not have to date her.
She was polite. Lorraine clasped his hands on his chest, then raised his head slightly, looked at her condescendingly, and thought to himself: This girl is a bit hot!
Looking at Deipole, who was glaring at him with red and swollen eyes like an angry little white rabbit, Lorraine suddenly burst out laughing uncontrollably.
Deipole frowned at first, then turned his head away in disgust.
Lorraine coughed twice in embarrassment, shrugged helplessly at Adeling, and said: "War, no matter the process, no matter the means, all you want is the result, to achieve your strategic goal, that is, victory, isn't there that sentence?"
Well, everything is about winning."
Deipole glanced at Lorraine angrily and said: "I have also read your "On War". You don't need to show it off to me. You are just talking about some truths that everyone knows."
Lorraine shrugged and said with a smile: "Since you know the truth, why did I win and you failed?"
Deipole slapped the edge of the bed, straightened his upper body, stared at Lorraine, and said: "You..."
In the end, she fell back on Adeling helplessly, looked at Lorraine with dull eyes, and said naa-naa: "I...I...who told me to meet an idiot and insist on fighting you head-on."
Lorraine smiled and said: "Since you know he is a fool, why don't you ignore him, or..."
Lorraine leaned forward, bent her face a foot away from Deipole, looked at her with a smile, and said: "Or just kill him and raise an obedient puppet."
Lorraine straightened up and leaned back on the chair, squinted his eyes and said to Deipole: "Don't tell me that you have never had this idea or the ability. You have so many mages under you."
Deipole gritted his teeth and stared at Lorraine, as if he was about to jump up and bite Lorraine.
Lorraine smiled more and more proudly, tapped Erlang's leg, looked at Deipole and said jokingly: "At the critical moment, it's not a woman's weak instinct that is at work. See that guy treats you well, so you can't bear to do it."
Deipole's face changed several times, including hatred, embarrassment, and regret. In the end, he just bit his lips, turned his head and snorted heavily.
Lorraine shook his head and said sternly: "A kind person cannot command an army, and a loyal person cannot control wealth. If you completely control the Dulci people, let those cannon fodder hold me back on the southern front, and directly attack Nidel City,
You have at least a 60% chance of success."
Deipole turned to look at Lorraine, sneered and said, "You also admit that I can beat you."
Lorraine shrugged and thought to himself: This little girl seems to be not only competitive, but also very arrogant, but... I like it!
Lorraine said: "Why not? Of course your plan is beautiful enough to be recorded in the annals of history, but it is still far behind compared to mine."
Lorraine pointed at herself and said proudly: "The flood under Nidel City is enough to change the way wars will be fought in the future."
As soon as he talked about this with Lorraine, Deipole seemed to forget that he was a homeless loser, and he no longer looked that desperate and lonely. Instead, he argued with Lorraine in high spirits. Adeline
She was surprised to see that Deibole's face had a look again. Although it was just angry and not angry, it was much better than the lifeless look. Looking at Lorraine's look like an old god, Adeline also understood Lorraine.
He smiled gratefully at Lorraine.
Deipole was choked by Lorraine's confident look. Angrily, he wanted to find a reason to refute Lorraine. He wrung his fingers but couldn't think of any. In the end, he could only gouge out his eyes, slap his forehead, and shake his head in despair.
Said: "I only pay attention to the battlefield itself, but you pay attention to the outside of the battlefield. This is an inspiration."
Seeing Deipole admit that Lorraine was better than him, Lorraine felt a little proud, and thought to herself: This girl is hotter, at least she is honest.
Then Lorraine winked at Adeling happily, and Adeling nodded approvingly to Lorraine.
Lorraine said: "So, I won, but not only because of the flood. When you were at the gate of Nedel City, I used 30,000 troops to annihilate 50,000 orcs in the south. Now, two months ago
Of the mighty army of 120,000 orcs, only 30,000 are left."
Deipole's eyes widened and he exclaimed: "This is impossible. With your strength, the field battle can only be a draw."
Lorraine smiled and said, "I don't have to lie to you."
Then he explained the strategy of the river valley to Deipole in detail. Deipole fell silent, frowning and not knowing what he was thinking.
Lorraine said: "War is never as simple as one plus one equals two. Orcs are famous for their endurance, but they were left further and further behind by us during the long march. I won this war by walking on my feet."
Deipole felt that she couldn't see through the man in front of her. From the intelligence she thought she had collected, she knew that Lorraine was greedy for money and a good rogue, but he was also very smart and an opponent that should not be underestimated.
After this battle, Deipole felt that Lorraine's unconstrained thinking was not something he could match. But after hearing about the Battle of the Valley, Deipole understood that Lorraine was not a person who won by just being smart. On the contrary,
, Lorraine was thoughtful and determined at the same time, making decisions before taking action. He dared to leave Nadel City and gather all his strength to fight a decisive battle with the orcs, annihilate a large number of the enemy's effective forces, and fundamentally win the war.
Deipole thought to himself: If he were Lorraine, he would never be able to make such a determination, but if he didn't do this, the Naian people would remain passive and eventually be dragged down by the orcs.
After thinking about it, Deipole raised his head and looked at Lorraine blankly, with a lonely look on his face.
Lorraine looked at Deipole's appearance and thought to herself: This girl seems to be convinced, but let's add more fire.
Lorraine said: "Intelligence is very important in war, but in a war, the most important thing is power. Just like you, with more than 20,000 people, can't take down a city wall defended by 6,000 people, but I, with more than 30,000 people, dare to fight against 50,000 orcs.
Same, this is the difference in strength."
Deipole looked at Lorraine with a sullen expression.
Lorraine turned around and glanced around the room. She saw all kinds of drinks neatly placed on the table in the back. She stood up with a smile and walked over to pour two glasses of wine, then another glass of water, and brought back only one glass.
The wine and water were handed to Adeling, who smiled gently, took the cup, and handed it to Deipole.
Adeline and Deipole watched Lorraine take a sip of wine and sit down comfortably, and they secretly thought at the same time: He is still a very careful man.
Adeline felt sweet and happy in her heart, but Deipole felt much more sour in her heart.
Lorraine said: "I just said, in fact, I want to thank you for this battle. I am not kidding you. Before this, Nai'an was just a small place, guarding the Beni River. It could not get hungry but could not get rich.
.”
Deipole glanced contemptuously. She had stayed in the orc territory for several years. Compared to the prairie with nothing, Lorraine had the nerve to be called poor.
"Before this, I had never paid attention to the prairie, the vast expanse of prairie, the vast expanse of prairie." Lorraine said leisurely and fascinated: "Before you came with the orcs, I was just thinking about how to guard the border.
I beat away the orcs who came to harass me, and then continued to look for ways to make a fortune within Naian. Don’t you know, I am the largest salt merchant in Naian, and I have basically monopolized the market.”
Adeling smiled brightly at Lorraine, but Deipole sneered at Lorraine angrily, saying: "Master Lorraine's reputation for being a good man with money is broadcast all over the world, especially his relationship with Pluto, which is getting closer year by year.
"
Adeling slapped Deipole on the back and scolded: "Deipole, don't say that."
Lorraine waved her hands indifferently and said: "Don't worry, I don't care, I always think this is a compliment to me, and not being hated by others is mediocre.
After saying that, he laughed out loud.
Deipole punched the empty space, and Lorraine was so out of breath that she choked herself instead. The corners of her eyes twitched and her hands tightened on the sheets. Adeline covered her mouth and laughed coquettishly.
Lorraine looked at Deipole who was so angry that he almost went crazy. He felt more and more happy and said leisurely: "These orcs you brought reminded me, and then I suddenly realized that they were right next to me.
There is such a vast, undeveloped land, which is as big as thirty Naian. If I take this grassland..."
Deipole was stunned by Lorraine's words. He looked at Lorraine in a daze and murmured: "If you take the prairie..."
Adeling also frowned her heroic eyebrows, thinking about Lorraine's words.
Lorraine took a deep breath, looked up at the sky outside the window, and said: "I will become the first contributor to the expansion of the empire in the past two hundred years. Not only that, by developing the prairie, I can make unimaginable gains.
of wealth.”
Deipole was shocked by what Lorraine said. Thinking of the grand vision described by Lorraine, Deipole felt that his heart that did not dare to be lonely was trembling. His face became redder and redder, and he was obsessed with looking at Lorraine.
Adeling was also frightened by Lorraine's ambition. She didn't expect that Lorraine had already planned to annex the entire grassland before the war was over.
Lorraine took a breath and thought to herself: Okay, enough of the pretense.
Then he stood up, bent down and leaned close to Deipole, looked into her depressed eyes, and said leisurely: "Thanks to you for bringing it to me."
Deipole clenched his fists, gritted his little silver teeth, and looked at Lorraine unwillingly. Deipole thought to himself: He has been working in vain for several years, and even got himself involved, but this man's ambition has been destroyed.
It's ignited, what the heck, cleverness is misled by cleverness.
Lorraine straightened up and said with a smile: "It's getting late, I'm going back, and I'll come see you again tomorrow."
Deipole waved his fists and said with a dark face: "Let's go, let's go quickly, I don't want to see you."
Then he got up from Adeling's body, turned over and lay on the bed with his back to Lorraine and Adeling, and pulled up the quilt to cover himself tightly.
Adeling looked at Deipole, smiled slightly, stood up and said to Lorraine: "I'll give it to you."
Then he pulled Lorraine out of Deipole's bedroom, holding Lorraine's hand and walking on the stairs. Lorraine suddenly smiled evilly, pulled Adeline close to his arms, hugged her tightly and kissed her passionately.
.
Adeling didn't resist at all, she hugged Lorraine's neck tightly with her arms, and responded to Lorraine enthusiastically.
A few minutes later, Adeline pushed Lorraine away, raised her hand to caress Lorraine's cheek, and said with a soft smile: "Thank you, Lorraine."
Lorraine grinned, put her arms around Adeling's shoulders, and slapped her hard on the buttocks. Adeling's muscles were so strong that Lorraine's own hands were slightly numb from the slap.
Adeling exclaimed "Ah!", her face instantly turned bright red, she glanced at Lorraine angrily, and said, "What are you doing?"
Lorraine smiled and said: "If you are polite to me again, I will spank you like this."
Adeling stared at Lorraine in shock, then burst into laughter. During her sweet laughter, she pressed Lorraine's chest with both hands and leaned softly against Lorraine.
Lorraine returned to the house, sat back on the flexible sofa, picked up the hot coffee brought by the beautiful maid, took a gentle sip, and then involuntarily sighed with contentment from the bottom of his heart.
I thought to myself: This is the life I should live~!
He raised his head and looked at the sky outside through the huge glass window. Although it was already winter, the sky was bright and sunny.
The sky is blue, with only a few white clouds floating lazily in the sky, just like Lord Lorraine's current mood.
He looked at how late it was and asked casually to the maid: "My dear little Lina, are Nicole and the others up now?"
The beautiful maid turned her eyes, and two blushes immediately appeared on her pretty face. Obviously, this girl, who is much more sensible than Vera, the charming and innocent girl, knew what Lorraine and the others did last night.
Something strange happened, and as a result, Miss Nicole and the others are still resting.
She bit her lip, then lowered her head and whispered, "No, miss, they are still resting."
Lorraine sighed at the moment. Fortunately, they would not catch him sneaking out to chat with the demon beauties, but in this way, there would be fewer people to spend time with him.
He couldn't help but murmured in disappointment: "That's it... then... Luolina..."
As soon as he said this, Lorraine stopped hastily. It was better not to provoke the lightning beauty, otherwise she would end up with another electric person if she said the wrong word.
Lina turned her head playfully and looked at him. She knew where the prince was spending his time worrying about, so she smiled softly and said: "Sir, the young prince and the others are playing with Xiaobai in the backyard.
or……"
Lorraine said in shock: "Xiao Bai? Who is Xiao Bai?"
Lina rolled her eyes and said angrily: "It's the little elephant that the young master picked up. He named it Xiaobai."
Luo Lin asked curiously: "Why do you have such a name? Xiaobai, Xiaobai. This name is really ordinary. This is not like Leo's style."
Lina had been with Catherine for a long time, and of course she knew who had led to the mischief of Little Uncle Leo, this fat, white, innocent, and cute person whom everyone regarded as their darling.
Therefore, when the girl mentioned it, she immediately became angry.
It turns out that the little fat man was fair and tender. In the past, when everyone in Constantinople had nothing to do, they would run to him, pinch his face, and twist off his ears. From the body to the spirit, everything could be done.
Just let everyone ravage you and enjoy the fun of bullying the future emperor of the empire.
But since the last time, when the little gangster followed Catherine from home and went to the Maple Leaf Forest to play, his heart became wild.
Now, whenever any of the girls like me is okay, they run over and pinch his little face and bully him. Without saying a word, the little gangster will use the most powerful and most powerful among the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms.
The shameless breast-grabbing dragon claw hand uses his little claws to directly greet the newly developed breasts of young and beautiful girls like himself.
As a result, everyone turned pale and screamed.
In the end, everyone hid away from the little ruffian. Therefore, they could no longer enjoy bullying the future emperor. Even when they are old, they can remember it sweetly, and they can sit in front of the fireplace and look at their grandchildren.
They told us about the joy of life.
She glanced at Lorraine hatefully, and said sarcastically: "Yes, the young master also said the same, he insisted on naming the little elephant 'Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, meet gods and kill gods, meet demons and slay demons.
"Super Godzilla, the Ultimate Big Monster". But after hearing this, the little elephant turned his head and ran directly to the lake behind. He jumped up and was about to jump into the lake.
Fortunately, Miss Vera stopped it early, otherwise it would have committed suicide.
Even with the little bully's temper, the young master had no choice but to do anything when he saw the little elephant threatening death. So later on, Miss Vera named it Xiaobai."
As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and pointed behind her.
Lorraine smiled bitterly, turned her head, and looked out through the window on the other side of the room. On the grass in the backyard, she saw a blue-haired girl and two cute children with pink makeup and beautiful clothes.
There was a baby elephant playing there.
If you listen carefully, you can even hear a series of laughter coming from them in the distance.
I saw Vera throwing a branch or something into the distance, and then I saw the little elephant running out happily like a puppy amidst the happy series of laughter of Leo and Melina.
The baby elephant's big feet stepped on the ground, and under the action of huge gravity, it immediately caused a tremor like an earthquake, making a "boom, boom, boom" sound.
When the little elephant found the branch, he ran back happily amidst the tremors of the mountains and the ground. While wagging his little tail behind him, he handed the branch back to Vera's hand.
Finally, he happily circled around Vera, waiting for her to throw the branch out.
During this back and forth, Lorraine was very heartbroken to discover that the area where expensive plants were planted remained green even in winter. It was used by high-end noble families to store forks, and the ground that represented status symbols was trampled by it.
It's a complete mess.
Not to mention rare flowers and plants, after the little elephant ran past with the same 'rumble' as the T34 tank that rolled over the Russian plains, even the international standard cement floor of his time was not much better than the current ground.
.
According to Lorraine's own estimation, it will be extremely difficult to grow a foxtail grass next year.
Seeing this, Lorraine's heart was so painful that he almost bled, and his face turned purple. But seeing the bright smiles on the faces of the three people, he really couldn't bear to go over and shout loudly, which would ruin the scenery.
Therefore, Lorraine hurried over and lowered the velvet curtain very firmly to block her sight. She was afraid that if she took another look, she would get stomachache again.
At the same time, due to the interruption of this matter, Lord Lorraine, with his intelligence and acumen, neglected one thing - as a living creature, how could the little elephant be so full of spirituality that he could even understand thunder?
Oh’s words~!
After Lorraine closed the curtains, she found that she could still hear the "rumbling" footsteps coming from the distance, like the earth was shaking and the mountains were shaking. Then she imagined that scene in her mind, and immediately she found that her stomach
Instead, it hurt even more.
It would be better to see it with your own eyes, at least you won't have any wild thoughts. The little elephant's big feet stepped on several expensive and rare plants that were blessed by the magician's magic.
Only then did he vaguely understand that during the defense battle of Maple Castle, he and Leo pulled out the flowers and plants carefully planted by Red Archbishop Obachm in order to visit the injured Lorena, which made the old guy furious.
, carrying a cane, chasing down three streets, chasing the two of them and fleeing in panic.
Lina next to her looked at Lorraine's face as painful as pulling out teeth, and she felt very gloating in her heart. Although she wanted to avoid being discovered by Lorraine, the corners of her beautiful red lips could not help but curl up and curve into
A beautiful arc.
Lorraine caught a glimpse from the corner of her eye, and she was immediately in a bad mood. She felt that her self-esteem was hurt in front of this little maid who was spoiled by Catherine. She couldn't help but smile bitterly, stood up and was about to leave.
Lina was startled for a moment and said: "Sir, where are you going? In an hour or two, dinner will be served. Don't let the ladies get up and find you by then, lose their temper again, and finally...
It’s not the unlucky ones like us who are servants.”
Lorraine hesitated when he heard the words, stopped at the door, then turned around, looked at the beautiful little maid, and said: "Lina, my dear little Lina. Do you know that people like me are like this?"
People who have many things to do are always very busy. If they stop for a while, they will be scolded by those damn common people as a 'salary thief', a 'people's thief' who takes money and does not work.
He paused for a moment, seeing that the little maid was still looking at him seriously, and then continued: "Where else can I go? To my office, of course, to deal with the official business accumulated over such a long time."
At this time, another burst of cheerful laughter came from the distance, and Lorraine suddenly felt heartache again. He immediately waved his hand and left quickly without looking back. He was afraid that one more minute would give him a stomachache.
Hang up.
Lina looked at his retreating back and was stunned for a while, then looked back at the empty living room, and then murmured in a low voice without showing any weakness: "This is the best, that's the best.
The old man, the political officer Angus, has already gone back and forth three times. The old man is sweating profusely and doesn't know what happened."
But at this time, Lorraine had already walked far away. For no other reason than to escape Leo's few laughters that made him feel stomachache, that was enough.
Lorraine passed through the gate of the back house and walked briskly along the familiar road to her office in front of the Governor's Palace.
Along the way, the officials who came to the Governor's Mansion to handle official business saw Lord Luo approaching. They all stopped, stood on the side of the road, and raised their hands to greet him respectfully.
At the same time, the eyes of everyone waiting were shining with curiosity.
Although during this period of time, the powerful Nai'an official propaganda agency has been activated, and there is no shortage of publicity that Lord Lorraine is working seriously, forgetting sleep and food, and taking care of everything...
The lights in Lord Lorraine's office stayed on all night and stuff...
Anyway, in one sentence, he is thinking about national affairs all the time, thinking about how to save those who live in dire straits and are enslaved by slave owners and other backward, barbaric and cruel exploiting classes, who are in trouble.
The various ethnic groups on the continent of Kalimdor.
But in fact, they are all used to deceive the simple people below so that they can pay more taxes.
All these officials who have been to the Governor's Palace or worked in the Governor's Palace know that Lord Lorraine has always been a lazy person who has no profit and cannot afford to get up early. He gets a headache when he sees the documents.
Even in normal times, they all leave the work at hand to others to handle. Therefore, many civil servants who have had their workload increased for no reason secretly cursed him behind his back, calling the Lord a "rice worm".
But today, the old man had just returned from the front line. He had plenty of reasons to take a good rest, but he appeared on the way to the office. This was considered a big news.
Lord Lorraine relied on his thick skin and didn't mind. He enthusiastically greeted the passers-by he met. If an officer saluted him, he would not forget to add in a low voice while returning the salute.
One sentence: "You are the same."
Lorraine came to her office and opened the door. She originally thought that there would be dust in the room after not using it for a long time, but she saw that it was as clean as new. It was obvious that someone had been cleaning it carefully during her absence.
He reached out and wiped it, and even the dark area at the corner of the table was spotless. When Lord Lorraine saw this, a bad thought suddenly came to his mind.
He hurriedly ran to the wall, took off an oil painting, then suppressed his anxious heartbeat and quickly opened the safe hidden behind it.
Lorraine reached out and rummaged through it, throwing aside the top-secret documents marked with various levels, and then took out two treasured pictorials from under the documents. On the cover of the pictorial, she saw only an inch-long hair and a hot figure.
The beautiful girl held the pictorial preciously in her arms, then breathed a long sigh of relief and thought to herself: Not bad, not bad~!
Then he thought of something again, put the pictorial aside, and then rummaged through the safe again, and found two bottles of fine royal red wine as he wished.
But to his dismay, after searching for a while, he still couldn't find the last thing.
In the end, Lord Lorraine was disappointed to find a pure white note in the safe.
When he unfolded it, he found that the note was written in a delicate and elegant handwriting with several large characters: If you don't check it, you won't know. You actually dared to hide your private money behind our backs. Now all the money has been confiscated.
.Oh hehehehe...
Although it is only a few words, the writing moves quickly and penetrates directly to the back of the paper. The domineering and domineering attitude of the king is like a gust of wind.
Besides Catherine's handwriting, who else could it be?
Lorraine immediately lamented, Nicole was so ruthless, she didn't even leave a penny behind. Now it was over, she finally made a little money, and now she was back to before liberation.
At this moment, a knock on the door was heard.
Lorraine couldn't help being surprised. Then she asked loudly: "Who?"
A voice outside the door said: "Sir, it's me, Angus. Are you available? I have something urgent to report to you."
Lorraine looked down at the mess he had made, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "What's the matter? Can't we talk about it tomorrow?"
Angus begged anxiously: "Sir, it's really an emergency."
Having said this, he paused and said with a slight threat in his tone: "Sir, if you don't let me in, then I will have to wait outside the door."
Lorraine thought for a while, but in desperation, she had no choice but to say: "Okay, but just wait a moment."
After finishing speaking, Lorraine quickly moved her pictorial and red wine and hid them in the secret compartment of her desk. Then she closed and locked the safe again and hung up the painting, but she forgot to put that
Put the pile of top secret documents back.
When he saw his messy desk, he frowned and had to tidy it up casually. Then he sat down behind the desk and said, "Okay, come in."
Angus suddenly breathed a long sigh of relief, and then said: "Thank you, sir, thank you, sir."
As he spoke, he opened the door and walked in.
Angus wiped the sweat from his forehead, stepped in front of Lorraine, bowed to the ground first, and then said: "My Lord Governor, I would like to congratulate you for leading the army to defeat the orcs and win the victory."
This war..."
Lorraine waved his hand immediately and said: "Okay, okay. Lao An, you and I are our own people, don't be so open-minded. These nonsense things are all used to deceive outsiders. Between us
No need."
Angus suddenly felt warm in his heart, feeling that all these days of sleepless work at the rear were worth it in the end.
Lorraine pointed to the chair opposite and said: "Seeing that you are in a hurry and you are sweating all over, sit down first and take a rest."
Angus bowed slightly and said, "Thank you, sir."
As soon as he lowered his head, he saw the documents scattered on the chair, with the word "Top Secret" marked in big red letters on them, which looked dazzling and shocking.
When he discovered that Lord Lorraine actually treated those imperial documents in this way, he couldn't help but twitch his lips, but he could only pretend not to see it, flicked the documents to the ground, and then sat down.
Lord Lorraine took out his collection of red wine again, poured a full glass for Angus, and said: "Come on, take a few sips, and then tell me what is the big deal that I need you for."
He immediately calmed down, glanced at Lorraine with admiration, and thought to himself: "Being calm, not panicking when things happen, being calm as usual, and lifting things with ease, these are the people who really do great things~! He is indeed a natural talent. In comparison,
, I am so old but still so not calm, I am really ashamed of myself.”
Deep down in his heart, the last bit of dissatisfaction he had with a pretty boy like Lorraine who had climbed onto his head through the nepotism of Her Royal Highness Princess Catherine disappeared.
While thinking about it, Angus took out his handkerchief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, then took the red wine handed over by Lorraine, then took a serious sip, and then said: "This wine is indeed...
Not bad. It’s sweet and fragrant enough.”
"Of course, you know this kind of good wine... that's the one," Lorraine smiled, pointed to the current Supreme Being, and then continued: "It's in that person's wine cellar.
, there are only three bottles, and this is one of them. I bribed Leo and asked him to bring it out of the palace for me."
Although Angus is a political official in a province of the empire, he is a citizen of the empire after all. He has believed in the divine right of the emperor since he was a child. He even has a sense of awe for the royal family in his bones. When he heard Lorraine's words, he immediately opened his eyes.
He looked at the red liquid in his cup with an almost pilgrim look, and said: "It turns out that what I drink is a fine wine that only His Majesty can drink. It really tastes extraordinary..."
Lorraine saw him squinting his eyes, so intoxicated that he almost burst into tears. He hurriedly interrupted him and said: "Okay, okay. Lao An, tell me now what big thing happened."
Angus reluctantly put down his wine glass, then sat upright and replied respectfully: "That's right, Mr. Governor. We are going bankrupt soon~!"
Lorraine suddenly jumped up as if her butt was on fire and said angrily: "What did you say?~!!!"
