Episode 14: The Great Conspiracy, Section 2: True and False Corey 3-4
Yes, no matter how to send Corey away, the joy that Nalimu had originally felt in his heart disappeared without a trace.
Just when Nalimu was feeling troubled, an aide came in and reported: "Your Majesty, this is the list for tomorrow's lunch. Your Majesty, please take a look."
Nalimu flipped it over a few times and threw it back: "Please write down all the people above count and above in the imperial capital. This time I want to make it very grand." Just when the servant was about to leave, Nalimu said again.
Said: "I will also call my uncles and uncles who have not left home for many years."
"Yes, Your Majesty." The waiter then withdrew.
"Your Majesty, what do you mean?" A minister stood up.
"Huh, I've thought about it. Since this gangster Corey plans to form an alliance, I won't be at a big disadvantage. After all, I can have a younger sister." At this point, Nalimu glanced at the ministers in the hall coldly, and said
The peak turned: "You have all seen the weapons brought by the Yasi smugglers."
Not only had these ministers seen it before, but they all bought some from smugglers to equip their own guards. However, they didn't understand what Nalimu meant by asking, so they didn't speak.
Seeing that no minister spoke, Narim snorted coldly: "I know that those weapons are very special. They are even sharper, stronger and more durable than some ordinary famous swords."
A minister standing at the end of the hall was about to go out to speak, but was stopped by someone next to him. They were all loyal to Narimu's father and originally planned to resign, but Narimu was afraid that the people of the country would gossip, so he refused.
There is no agreement, but they are put in an unimportant position.
"You, what do you want to say?" Nalimu knew that these ministers were very knowledgeable.
"Your Majesty, I would like to say whether your Majesty is considering buying in large quantities and equipping them for the Imperial Guards." No matter what the minister originally planned to say, he had changed his tune at this time.
Narimu looked at the minister who spoke like this with a mocking look on his face: "The Guards, haha, I want to use it to equip the field army. The officers don't think about expanding the territory all day long, so I can give you this opportunity now."
.Now that I think about it, the reason why Yasi has been so arrogant in recent years is just because it has better weapons than other countries. Once we, Kurasoni, also have such weapons, then...hahaha."
While the ministers at the end were sighing, some ministers in the front row were flattering and praising Narimu for being so wise, and for being such a wise king who rarely comes across in thousands of years.
But the sighing ministers understood in their hearts that launching a war was not only about the army, but also about a successful commander and the overall national strength. They understood even more clearly why Yasi signed the peace treaty in a hurry to take advantage of the remaining power of his victory in World War II.
, in order to carry out nationwide reforms and strengthen the overall national strength.
At this time, at the gate of Curasoni, the fake Cory entered the city in a carriage again, and Corey disguised himself as an ordinary guard and followed the carriage with a face mask. Raymond, Mengka, etc.
Naturally, people live in military camps and live a relaxing life for a few days.
That night, Corey sneaked into Lace's room as a security guard.
"Master, are you going to stay here tonight?" When Lace saw Corey, she was nervous, but at the same time she was extremely happy.
"No." Corey shook his head: "I just plan to chat with you here."
Lace seemed a little disappointed, but still sat next to Corey.
"Ammu said that I am not a child anymore and should not be obsessed with women. Especially at important moments, I must be able to control myself." When Corey said this, he smiled bitterly: "You know what? Ah
Mu told me dozens of stories about heroes who were killed in the end because they only wanted to be intimate with women, so I didn't want to, at least this would be a dangerous moment."
Lace didn't know what to say, so she leaned against Corey obediently.
The two just kept leaning on each other without saying anything until late at night before Corey jumped out of the window and went back to his room to sleep.
Sometimes Corey really wishes to go back to his childhood, especially when he lived in a cabin, happy and relaxed, without having to fight with others all day long. It seems that as he gets older, his responsibilities are getting heavier day by day, but his happiness remains.
The decrease is the same bit by bit.
That night, Corey didn't sleep because he couldn't sleep and suddenly thought a lot. And Lace couldn't sleep either. She suddenly felt that Corey had changed. He was no longer the young master who always did whatever he wanted. She deeply felt that Corey had changed.
I deeply felt that there were more things on Corey's mind.
Little did Lace know, Corey had transformed from a boy into a real man.
When it was almost dawn, Corey fell asleep. Lace asked no one to disturb Corey. When the banquet started in the evening, she changed into Corey's prince uniform and went there with a lot of entourage.
Curacao Palace.
"His Majesty Prince Ray Corey has arrived." As the protocol officer shouted, the music in the palace banquet hall stopped instantly. Everyone stopped chatting and bowed to salute Lace. With a smile on her face, Lace lightly said
He raised his hand lightly and walked directly towards the throne.
"Dear Your Majesty, thank you for your warm hospitality." Lace bowed slightly and gave a half salute to Nalimu. Nalimu looked surprised, feeling why the other party was so polite today. Then he thought again, it must be
I feel happy because I killed the old enemy, the Archmage Lei.
Thinking of this, Nalimu clapped his hands and said loudly to the hall: "For the first dance tonight, please invite Prince Kerui of Yasi to dance."
Lace nodded, and was led by the concierge to the dressed-up Princess Naraki.
"Your Highness, please!" Laisi bowed to the end and extended her right hand in a very gentlemanly manner. Naraqi was surprised that the person in front of her was really handsome. She didn't react for a while until Leisi invited her again.
Then he reached out his hand.
Many ministers who noticed this detail reported to Narim one after another, letting Nalim know that Naraqi was very moved when he looked at Corey.
Walking off the dance floor, Naraqi suddenly stretched out her hand and pressed Lace's chest. After confirming, she smiled sweetly, let Lace hug her waist, and whispered at the same time: "Sister looks really handsome in men's clothes.
"
Lace was surprised. Although she knew that Narachi had already learned that she was a fake, why did she need to confirm it herself?
Seeing a trace of confusion on Lace's face, Narachi said mischievously: "There are men with such good skin as my sister, and my sister has holes in her ears. Those stupid men can't see it. This can't fool me."
." After hearing this, Leisi shook her head and smiled bitterly. She really didn't expect Narachi to be so smart.
After one dance ended, and when the second song began, the other ministers pulled their partners onto the dance floor, and all the musicians began to play. Only then did Lace whisper: "I need a job as a minister who is loyal to your father.
A list, a token."
"When will sister want it?" Naraqi understood that this must be what Corey wanted.
"Of course, the sooner the better." Lace knew in her heart that the sooner the better for this kind of thing, Narachi nodded: "Then you accompany me to the garden later, and then I will find an excuse to go back to you later.
Prepare."
When the second song ended, applause rang out from all around. I don’t know whether it was because Lai Xi danced really well or because these people were deliberately trying to flatter Lai Xi. However, Lai Xi did not let go of Naraqi’s hand and leaned over and said, “I want to invite you.
Princess Naraki went to the garden for a walk."
Of course Nalimu didn't mean anything. He wished that Corey would take Naraki away today and then the two parties could negotiate the benefits. He immediately agreed.
In the garden, Narachi only asked his personal maid to stand nearby, and drove the others away.
"Sister, you must be very beautiful in women's clothing. I heard that my sister's background is very bad, but she is the most famous woman in Asia." Naraqi felt that Lace had an indescribable feeling of kindness, and held Lace's hand.
Just don't relax.
Lace coughed lightly and looked at the guard in the distance: "It's not good to be seen holding my hand."
"I'm not afraid. My brother is eager to marry me off quickly this time so that he can get greater benefits. He doesn't really care about me and whether someone will bully me." At this point, Narachi's face showed
His smile disappeared instantly, and tears flowed down uncontrollably.
At this time, Narachi kicked the steps hard, and the heel on his foot fell off immediately.
"Come here, take me back to change a pair of shoes." Narachi called loudly, and her maid hurried over.
All this was watched from a distance by Narimu's people, who quickly reported it to Narimu.
"It's a bit strange. I heard that Prince Corey of Yasi is not an impatient person. Someone sent five girls to him in order to bribe him, but he didn't touch any of them. What happened today is a bit strange," the minister said.
As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately came up to him: "How can an ordinary woman compare with a princess? Besides, you said that Prince Cory is not yet sixteen years old."
"Stop arguing. In short, it is right to let him leave our Kurasoni as soon as possible, of course, after negotiating a peace and signing the contract." Narimu was concerned about the princess at all, but his actual interests.
"Then I will tell no one to disturb them. As for Prince Kerui's entourage, I will go and say hello to them." Of course these ministers understood Nalimu's intentions.
Nalimu smiled and nodded: "It's good to do this, especially that Laqi'ao, we must treat him well. Rumor has it that he is now a high-ranking figure in the Yasi Military Department, so we must give him a good reception."
, all expenditures were paid by the state treasury.”
"I understand."
After Princess Narachi came back, she found that all the guards around the garden suddenly disappeared. Except for the fake Corey who was still standing by the pool, not even a single attendant could be seen.
"Here, why is there no one here?" If she hadn't known Lace's identity, Naraqi would have been really afraid that she would be bullied.
Lace smiled and shook her head: "They disappeared suddenly. My people have already checked. There will be no irrelevant people in this garden. Of course, your maid must be very reliable."
"Don't worry about this sister. They are all girls loyal to my father's ministerial family. They are not ordinary maids." After saying that, Narachi took out a small cloth bag and handed it to Lace: "This is what I just told my father.
Yes, my father said not to let Prince Corey come to see him again in the near future, and if anything happens, let me send a message."
Lai Si put the cloth bag in her arms and was about to leave. Narachi grabbed Lai Xi and said, "Sister, if you leave in such a hurry, people will be suspicious. Please sit here for a while."
Lace looked back at Nalaqi, who had a look of expectation on her face. Regardless of Nalaqi's reasons, Lace decided to stay here a little longer.
"I've heard many legends about my sister, but I'm just curious about how I met Prince Cory." Naraqi held her chin and looked at Lace with curiosity on her face.
"That time." Lace closed her eyes and couldn't help but recall the time when she met Corey: "At that time, my sister was two years younger than you and was a slave. The young master was a famous bad boy in Corona City at that time.
He even went into a casino and finally won me away with two magic crystal coins."
"I won it, not bought it." Naraki asked eagerly.
"Yes, I won it. Then the young master was kicked out of the academy and had no home to return to. We lived in a small wooden house in the forest for more than half a year." Lace couldn't help but fall in love with this lovely princess, and brought many lost friends to her.
All the stories that people knew were told to Naraki.
The two of them talked until late at night, at least Laqi'ao sent someone to look for her, and then Lace said her goodbyes and left.
"Miss Lace, there's an accident." Lachiao was worried that things wouldn't work out.
"Everything is here, send someone to arrange it. I was chatting with Princess Naraki and forgot the time." Just as Lace was about to apologize, La Qi'ao said first: "As long as it goes well, we won't let the conversation go too long.
I'm suspicious, after you deal with this guy, you can chat for a longer time."
La Qi'ao secretly felt happy, he understood everything in his heart.
And on this night, after the banquet, when Narim and his dear ministers secretly celebrated that the plan went very smoothly, the carriages of several ministers on the street unexpectedly got into accidents.
"Hurry up, if it can't be repaired, go back and call for another one." The former Prime Minister scolded his entourage angrily.
At this moment, a dark figure kicked down his two guards and rushed into the carriage. The former Prime Minister was about to shout, but saw a ring in the hand of the man who came, so he stopped shouting and rushed towards the guards.
"Who are you."
"Do you recognize this thing, sir? My master would like to invite you to have a chat." The visitor said softly.
The former prime minister took the ring, released a fireball and looked at it carefully, and then asked: "Who is your master?"
"If you believe this, please don't ask anything. Come with me. Another carriage has been prepared at the street corner. When we get there, you will understand everything." After the man in black finished speaking, he looked at the former prime minister.
, waiting for the other party's answer.
The former Prime Minister took a deep breath: "Okay, I believe you."
Former Prime Minister Kurasoni asked someone to put on his own clothes and sat in the carriage waiting for the carriage to be repaired. He put on a guard's coat, took only one personal guard, and followed the man in black to the corner of the street.
On top of the carriage.
The carriage turned two streets and stopped at the entrance of a store. The former prime minister followed the man in black into the backyard of the store, but found that he was not the only one. Dozens of ministers were already sitting here. He could tell at a glance that these people were all
Absolutely loyal to the emperor.
"Please ask your master to come out quickly." The former prime minister said to the man in black who was leading the way.
The man in black raised his head and counted the number of people before bowing and retreating.
Soon, Lai Si walked into the living room slowly. All the ministers had seen Lai Si during the banquet, and they all stood up to salute. But an unexpected scene appeared for him. Lai Si was just standing next to the main seat, and a man wearing a knight's uniform
The young man was sitting on the main seat.
Corey clapped his hands, and immediately someone brought wine and poured a glass for everyone present. Then all the windows and doors were closed and sealed with black cloth.
"Everyone, let me introduce myself. I am Lei Corey." Corey stood up with a smile and gave a half salute to the ministers. Since the ministers saw the token of Emperor Kurasoni, they looked at the real thing again.
Fake Corey no longer feels particularly surprised.
The former Prime Minister stood up: "I really didn't expect that the great magician Lei turned out to be Prince Corey of Yasi. Since you have revealed your identity, why not directly explain your purpose of coming to us."
Corey smiled and nodded to Lace.
Lace took out a cloth bag from her arms, and when she opened it, it was full of things belonging to Emperor Curasoni. This Narachi was young, and she thought that one token would not be enough, so she took all the things that belonged to the emperor.
Of course, what made these ministers feel the most heavy-hearted was the list and letters written on the cloth bag in Emperor Curasoni's own hand.
When the former prime minister saw these things, he fell to his knees in tears.
