At noon the next day, it was already lunch time when Chen Rui returned to his residence.
As usual, Orpheus was having a fierce fight for food with Pagliu and Lomon. Her nephew and classmate and Master Poison Dragon were both very nervous people, even though the black dragon girl's demigod father was watching eagerly.
, but there is no intention of giving in, which is what Uncle Dulong usually says, "I will eat it even if I die."
Compared with these three foodies, the food habits of Miss Emerald Dragon Miss Cloberus and Miss Black Dragon Julia are considered gentle. As for the truly gentle Delia, there is no comparison at all.
The fierce collision of tableware, sharp eye contact, and loud chewing sounds have become a symphony on the dining table.
The old god Augustolas was drinking wine on the ground, and he had no intention of helping his daughter. He could see that Orpheus was very happy and really liked being with these friends.
Of course, the Lord Dragon King is a very protective type. Damn Poison Dragon and that Lomon dared to steal Olipis' food rations. This debt will be settled during the "guiding" practice.
Oliphis successfully grabbed a plate of cabbage, suddenly thought of something, and handed it to Isabella: "Sister, this is what you like to eat."
A certain demigod father was a little jealous. You know, Orpheus wouldn't even let go of the food in front of his father, except for Isabella.
"Thank you, I'll just eat a piece." Isabella forked a piece with a smile, looking at the black dragon girl's bulging mouth with some fondness. "Eat slowly, Olipis, if Chen Rui comes, I will let him
I’ll make barbecue for you to eat.”
The little black dragon girl nodded her head like a chicken pecking at rice. Suddenly her eyes lit up. She pointed at the door and said vaguely: "The barbecue... is here."
"Look, who did we see?" Luo Meng jumped up: "Isn't that a captain? It only showed up four or five days after returning? Captain, you have worked hard, are you not afraid of kidney failure from overwork?"
As he was speaking, the three plates of food in front of him had already been snatched away, two plates were for Orpheus and one was for Pagliu - the dragons were more powerful, so they had to grab enough to eat first.
Chen Rui felt the weird looks from everyone and wanted to throw a wine bottle at the bastard. He bowed slightly to Augustus, then smiled and nodded to Delia and Clobelus, and then went straight to Yi.
In front of Sabella, he held her hand in front of everyone: "Yini, our nephew seems to be a little rude. He needs to be disciplined soon."
Lomon was immediately deflated. In any case, Isabella was indeed his aunt, and this bastard was indeed his aunt's sweetheart. In fact, after all, the original cause of this incident was the secret he leaked.
"It needs to be well disciplined." The aunt's inhumane words about the opposite sex made the nephew almost hide in the corner and draw circles, but he quickly added meaningfully: "But he is right, this
You have worked hard in the imperial capital for three days."
Chen Rui heard his aunt's obvious dissatisfaction and quickly complained. In fact, he had been guarding Tennis for the past three days. He went to the palace last night and had a long talk with Her Majesty the Queen.
Naturally, Her Majesty the Queen was talking about it while lying in his arms that night, but the talk was really about business. Although she was willing to be overworked and so on, Her Majesty the Queen made it clear, don't think about it before the wedding.
The current economic momentum of the Fallen Angel Empire is very gratifying. In addition to the two focus territories of Dark Moon and Green Shade, the other large and small territories are also developing rapidly under favorable policies. The pockets of families and lords are shrinking due to wars, fund-raising and other reasons.
Slowly it began to grow again, and the lives of the people it led to began to improve. More importantly, they could see a bright future, and their loyalty naturally increased in direct proportion.
Magic TV and newspapers have been popularized throughout the empire. The sales of magic TV are astonishing. The revenue from TV and newspaper advertising has gradually emerged, attracting the attention of many businesses. The specific management, implementation and other matters are responsible for the newly established Media Department.
Ledotan, the patriarch of the Toro family, is appointed as the minister. The media brings not only economic benefits, but also the territories can hear the voices from the imperial capital at the first time, which plays a good role as a mouthpiece.
Under various comprehensive factors, the cohesion of the imperial capital is increasing day by day, and Shia's position as queen has become unshakable.
Externally, the cooperation with the Shadow Empire has been very successful. One of the signs is the holding of the Battle Ball League between the two countries, which has attracted the attention of fans from all over the demon world, including fans of the Blood Evil Empire. The TV will broadcast live and replay it at a fixed time.
It also caused a large number of merchants from the Blood Demon Empire to flock to the Fallen Angel Empire to order magic TV.
The civil strife in the Blood Evil Empire is still going on, but the second prince Edmund has gradually declined after several consecutive defeats. He is just hiding in the Iron Fist territory north of Varok Fortress. If nothing else, the eldest prince A Liu
Sri Lanka will win the final victory.
During her last visit, Catherine deliberately revealed her intention to unite with Shia to deal with the turbulent Blood Evil Empire. Shia diverted the topic. What the Fallen Angel Empire needed now was not to expand its territory, but to recuperate.
, in the end, stealing the chicken will not end up losing the rice, but will even lose all the capital. Judging from the current situation in the demon world, maintaining a tripartite situation is more beneficial to the Fallen Angel Empire.
"Huh?" The black dragon girl's nose twitched. "Boss, what are you spreading? It smells so good! It seems that barbecue didn't have this kind of fragrance before."
Augustolas pondered for a moment and said: "It should be the seeds of bluegrass. Bluegrass is a light plant and is very rare in the devil world."
"It's the blue grass. Lord Dragon King is indeed well-informed." Chen Rui handed a few roasted skewers to Olifes.
Oliphis took a bite and burst into tears in an exaggerated manner: "Madam, it tastes so delicious! The boss's craftsmanship is the best, and I like to eat it the most! It's great to have you back, boss!"
Chen Rui smiled slightly and handed over a few more skewers. The black dragon girl almost ate the bamboo sticks. Auglas saw this and took a big gulp of wine.
"It's really delicious!" A guy who was attracted by the fragrance also said shamelessly: "My uncle's cooking is the best, and I like to eat it the most. Uncle, it's great to have you back!"
Just after she said this, her ears were lifted up by the smiling Isabella, who was grinning and screaming in pain, but in her hands were a few more skewers of barbecue subsidized by her aunt.
"Oliphis," Augustus said, "Do you want to let this guy roast meat for you for the rest of your life?"
The Black Dragon girl was enjoying her meal so much that she had no time to speak and nodded quickly.
"Do you think... he will cook whatever you want to eat in the future?
The black dragon girl then nodded.
“Do you want to have someone pay the bill when you go out to eat in the future?”
The black dragon girl nodded vigorously.
"Do you want all his money to be yours from now on?"
The black dragon girl's eyes turned into shapes and she nodded desperately.
Augustus nodded conclusively and said to Chen Rui: "Let me just say that Orpheus has no objection to this marriage, right? Then, it's decided."
Chen Rui:......
Everyone:......
"Um... Lord Augustus," Chen Rui wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "I have a few words and want to talk to you alone."
"Just in time, I also have a few words to say to you." Augustolas glanced at everyone, and several dragons immediately stood up in understanding. Luo Meng also took Delia to work in the ANBU. Only Olife
Si was still enjoying the meal as if undecided.
Isabella came over, wiped the girl's oily face, and took her back to the room.
"Lord Augustus, please speak first."
"Hmph, boy, I leave Olifes to you. You must make her happy every day. If you dare to make her suffer, or fail to replace Isabella as the person she is most attached to in seventy years,
,So……"
Chen Rui shrugged: "Both body and soul are destroyed? Completely destroyed in ashes?"
There was a cold light in Augustolas's eyes: "No, I will not kill you, I will let you live well, but I will kill everyone else! Including your beloved woman, your most trusted friend, and even
It’s everyone I know!”
"This move is really cruel." Chen Rui narrowed his eyes and showed a strange smile: "But as long as I am fine, it will be fine."
"Stop pretending, I'm not blind." Augustus snorted coldly. "If you were such a person, Laura would be devoted to you? Isabella would risk her life for you? How could I bring Olife down?"
Can I give the silk to you?"
Chen Rui was silent for a moment and nodded: "Since this is the case, let me tell you a few words from my heart. I have always regarded Olifes as my sister and have no extra thoughts. Your Excellency has also seen that, Olivier
Faith is very happy here, and we all regard her as a member of this big family. Even if there is no coercion from adults, I will always take care of her and prevent her from being bullied or wronged. But what about Olifes now?
I don’t even understand. If she meets someone she really likes in the future, wouldn’t I have harmed her? I very much hope that I can be by her side as a brother. If we really have a relationship between men and women in the future,
, then it will happen naturally, otherwise if you force it, Orpheus will not be able to achieve true happiness."
A cold light flashed in Augustolas's eyes: "You are still trying to shirk the blame? I, the daughter of Augustolas, Sirla Salomenkole, am so looked down upon by you?"
"It is precisely because I regard Olifeis as my most important partner that I have to be honest with her father, instead of succumbing to the hypocrisy of power and interests." Chen Rui raised his head and looked straight into the eyes without fear.
Augustus "From the perspective of a wise man, my approach is simply stupid. Yes, as you can see, I am such a fool."
Augustus looked at Chen Rui for a moment, and suddenly showed approval: "My eyes are indeed not blind."
Chen Rui's eyes lit up: "My lord, what you mean is..."
"What you said is very good and makes sense."
"So……"
"You and Olivier get married now! Otherwise I will take away all your women and friends!"
"..."
"Fuck!" Chen Rui couldn't help blurting out. He felt that his eloquence had never failed like this before. The delaying strategy had the opposite effect?
