If Javid was present, he would be scared to death, because the red-haired woman kneeling behind Elena is his favorite concubine and the person he trusts most.
Elena asked Princess Layla lazily as she wiped her skin with a cotton ball:
"Qian'er, when is the Grand Duke going to take action?"
"When the palace gate opens as usual at noon tomorrow."
"What other supporters has he found?"
"It seems that the high priest was also moved by him, Queen."
The woman replied with a smile, curling a strand of fiery red hair around her pale fingers.
"But support should come after he succeeds. In fact, most of his supporters are like this, or those people only support the winner, but he can't see clearly. He thinks he has a lot of support."
The woman shrugged.
"He's always been so naive."
Elena smiled with satisfaction. When Xerxes handed over this intelligence network composed of women to her five years ago, Elena was still a little overwhelmed, but soon she discovered that she almost owned the empire.
All secrets of all high officials and nobles.
If she wanted, she could kill any official or noble instantly.
"Then he must not be at home tonight, either?"
"Yes, he has been in the military camp since morning, but it is strictly forbidden for any servants to reveal it."
"In this case, you don't have to go back. I will give you a new identity, that of a noble lady, and I will also introduce you to a promising Undead Army officer..."
Leila turned her head subconsciously, her expression a little nervous, and the woman in black gauze lowered her eyes.
"...He is a centurion, very young but also very sincere. He will be a good husband. The wanderers have the skills to restore your virginity. You don't have to worry about your husband's suspicion. You have been to the
Live your own life, this is what you deserve, and I will never call you again in the future if it is not necessary."
"Thank you Queen."
Leila breathed a sigh of relief, and the red-haired woman stood up and left.
Elena tilted her head back and looked at the ceiling. The woman in black gauze had put the comb aside and was drying and bundling her hair.
"Leila, Nadia, you all like Captain Kylo, right?"
Neither princess answered. Layla, whose face was red, sank half of her face into the water, while Nadia sat on the edge of the bath in silence.
"But now he only has endless hatred for the greenskins in his heart. That hatred has penetrated into his bone marrow and soul. Before this hatred is eliminated, it will be difficult for him to plan for himself, and... you are
As noble princesses, marriage is decided by your elder brother. Although your Majesty values Captain Kailo, he may not go that far because he is always unwilling to be your Majesty's subject. Maybe he will leave after the war and return.
Go and be a free wanderer in that infinite sea of stars."
Elena opened her eyes and glanced at the two princesses from left to right.
"I hope you have some thoughts in your own minds."
Early the next morning, Elena convened the ministers as usual to deal with the matters reported that day. Until noon, she also convened the military officers as arranged to discuss the subsequent troop mobilization, logistics supplies and recruit training.
"Now the main green-skinned forces are gathered in the Red Mountains. This is what we want."
Elena stood in front of a huge map, which was painstakingly tattooed with ink in impressive details.
"If they spread around, then we'll have more areas to defend."
As she spoke, she raised her hand and scanned a part of the map.
"Letting them concentrate instead of running around is the basic strategy formulated by His Majesty."
The seventy-year-old Imperial Army General across the table gently took a picture of the map.
"These mountains around the Acropolis form a natural pocket, and the greenskins rush in. The more attacks there are, the more orcs will be attracted to pursue the battle they desire. This is their nature."
"Every time we fight them back, it's like pouring water into a leaky bucket."
Elena said and nodded again.
"So to really solve the problem, we must first plug the hole instead of pouring more water, but we can't do that now. Your Majesty should have such a way."
"Queen, with all due respect, where has Your Majesty gone?"
"His Majesty--"
"He is a coward! Abandoned his empire!"
A familiar voice sounded outside the hall along with chaotic noises, and Elena frowned in disgust.
"Who's watching the door?"
At this time, the door of the main hall was opened, and several people strode in with grins, their boots crunching on the delicate tiles.
Elena glanced at the other people still outside. Several eunuchs had fallen in a pool of blood, and more were fighting rebels wearing various armors, including the capital's garrison and the Red Flame Guards.
There are also some noble private soldiers in fancy clothes who teach the knights.
The eunuchs tried to stop them, but their numbers were insufficient.
"Javid! Are you going to rebel?"
The army general gritted his teeth angrily, while Elena remained expressionless. The few remaining eunuchs in the hall quickly stood around her.
"Oh, let's get together, great!"
Javed strode in, glanced at everyone, and then stared at Elena, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes, with undisguised lust.
There were other people behind him, all nobles in the royal capital, and they were also Javid's lap dogs, sniffing around the leftovers on his table, seizing every opportunity to flatter him whenever possible.
"This is a forbidden palace, Lord Javid."
There was no trace of panic on Elena's face, only infinite calmness.
"Please forgive me, Queen Elena, I have always longed to see your beauty up close."
Javed glanced sideways at her, and several nobles next to him laughed obscenely.
"I want to talk to you alone."
"Bastard! Javid! Do you know what nonsense you are talking about! Mazda's holy fire will burn your filthy tongue!"
The surrounding veterans immediately scolded him, but most of them quietly hid aside.
Elena sighed.
"I originally wanted to resolve these matters after the war. Originally, Your Majesty still had a trace of compassion for you."
A nobleman came out, with a pair of big eyes glaring from his nose as sharp as a spear, and a pair of yellow teeth protruding from his beard like a bird's nest, and the armor seemed to be barely able to cover his chest hair, and then he raised his head
An arm pointed at her.
And the words he roared next almost made Elena vomit.
"Xerxes is not worthy of becoming the King of Kings! He has no bloodline from the previous kings! He is just a monster! A disaster!"
