Chapter 407 You are my leader The middle-aged uncle left, disappearing into the dark night with endless vicissitudes of life.
Ye Feng doesn't know whether he will start a new life again or continue his career as a killer.
Maybe, nothing can be changed.
Ye Feng felt a little sad. The peaceful life he yearned for was always troubled by all kinds of disputes about right and wrong. Perhaps, the real world is really just like what the middle-aged uncle said, it is a corrupt world.
Just let nature take its course. After all this is over, life will eventually return to peace.
Looking at the stars in the sky, Ye Feng comforted himself in his heart.
Everything will pass, just like this bright starry sky, peaceful and beautiful.
"My dear, why did you let him go?"
Maria's face was full of doubts, but Ye Feng smiled very calmly.
"I made a deal with him, and I'm just fulfilling my promise now."
Ye Feng closed his eyes slightly and listened quietly to the music in the distance.
"The concert site is not a suitable place for killing people."
"Your Excellency, President, I really doubt whether you have ever been a killer. You look exactly like a sentimental literati."
"Do you want to say that I am a little bit like a mother-in-law and not decisive enough in my actions?" Ye Feng said bluntly.
"You are indeed very mother-in-law, even more mother-in-law than us women." Maria covered her mouth and smiled sweetly. "As a killer, the first requirement is to be ruthless. From this point of view, you are really not an excellent killer."
Ye Feng opened his eyes, looked at Maria and smiled.
"A killer is first a person, and then a killer."
"Hehe, dear President, let's not discuss these philosophical issues of which came first, the chicken or the egg. Let's first talk to me about the deal between you and the killer. Did he tell you what happened behind the scenes?
Who is the mastermind?"
"He didn't know the true identity of the mastermind. He just heard that the mastermind was a distinguished figure, and his family was also an extremely prominent wealthy family in Europe."
Ye Feng truthfully told the information he had just received from the middle-aged uncle, and Maria lowered her head in deep thought with a solemn expression.
The moonlight is hazy and the waves are sparkling on Jiuqu Lake.
In the gentle evening breeze, Maria raised her pretty face, and her smile bloomed, like a charming night rose.
"I already know who it is. It's 100% the head of the Loris family, Aldrich."
Ye Feng was a little surprised when he heard the name of the Loris family.
"Maria, there are many aristocratic families in Europe, why do you think it is the Loris family?"
"The reason is actually very simple. Our Holy Cross Society has chosen to return to orthodoxy. We are most disappointed in this and the one who has suffered the most heavy losses is the Loris family. So, if we want to say who hates us the most and wants to get rid of us the most, it should be
Aldrich.”
Seeing that Ye Feng was still puzzled, Maria told the story of the past between the Holy Cross Society and the Loris family in detail.
Peter, the former president of the Holy Cross Society, chose the Loris family as the most important partner because of the special status of the Loris family in the European continent. As the former rulers of the Europa Empire, the Loris family can be said to be the most important partner in Europe.
The most glorious family. Although the Europa Empire fell a hundred years ago, the Loris family has accumulated rich connections on the European continent by virtue of its hundreds of years of rule over most of Europe. Many political families have thousands of connections with him.
wisps of contact.
After the two parties reached a cooperation, they contacted many political figures overtly and covertly. The chaos that swept across Europe half a year ago was a wonderful drama staged by both parties.
The Holy Cross's other partners on the European continent, such as Viscount Jacobson of Denmark, Sarnia of France, and others, although they have carried out actions to seize power with the support of the Holy Cross, and have been quite effective,
But in Peter's mind, European countries such as Denmark and France will eventually be integrated together. Restoring the territory of the former Europa Empire is an agreement between Peter and the Loris family, and it is also Aldrich's promise to cooperate with the Holy Cross Society.
prerequisites.
The greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment. Compared with other partners, the Loris family has worked hard to restore the Europa Empire. If Sania and Jacobson had not acted indiscriminately and disobeyed orders,
, I am afraid that this plan will be realized now, and most of Europe will return to the control of the Loris family. Unfortunately, the unauthorized actions of Sania and Jacobson suddenly caused the situation that was originally beneficial to the Holy Cross to appear.
The incident also caused Peter to rethink the future of the Holy Cross Society.
"Maria, will Peter let Aldrich be the emperor of the Europa Empire?" Ye Feng asked curiously.
"Yes, this is also one of the agreements." Maria smiled playfully. "However, that is just a puppet emperor. Aldrich is not a member of our Holy Cross Society, and President Peter will not allow one
Outsiders hold real power.”
"Is Aldrich willing to be this puppet emperor in name only?"
"He certainly won't. Aldrich is an old fox. Our cooperation is actually using each other." Maria frowned and thought for a moment. "Before the Mayflower cruise incident happened, our Holy Cross
The Soviet Union has almost taken control of the situation in Europe. As long as we proceed slowly according to the planned plan, Europe will fall into our hands within a few months. Unfortunately, first came the Mayflower cruise incident, and then Jacobson rashly launched a military campaign in Denmark.
The coup and these two emergencies disrupted our plans at once. According to my speculation, there is Aldrich's shadow behind these two incidents. He wants to push our Holy Cross Church to the forefront.
Then reap the benefits."
Ye Feng was very clear about what happened after that. Faced with the unfavorable situation, Peter made a prompt decision, quickly changed his strategy, and frequently showed his favor to himself, hoping to use his good personal relationship with Cardinal Antonio to get Cardinal Antonio to agree.
Peace talks.
Maria talked to Ye Feng about Gabriel's betrayal of the organization and Peter's assassination at the Café de Flore. In both incidents, Maria also suspected that Aldrich was behind the scenes.
Listening to Maria's methodical analysis, Ye Feng couldn't help but frown, secretly sighing that Aldrich was really a wily person.
"Some time ago, our Queen of the Holy Cross's beloved Blue Heart was stolen. I guess this was also done by Aldrich."
Maria suddenly mentioned the theft of diamonds, which made Ye Feng full of doubts.
"Mary, the Blue Heart was stolen just a few days after I took over as president of the Holy Cross. Aldrich probably wouldn't know about my identity so soon."
"This matter has nothing to do with whether you are the president of the Holy Cross Society. The problem still lies with the diamond."
"How can I say this because of Diamond?"
Maria pretended to smile mysteriously, and then told her guess truthfully.
"After the demise of the Europa Empire, the Loris family was kicked out of the Schönbrunn Palace where they had lived for generations, and the crown that symbolized the glory of the empire was confiscated by the Austrian government. Since Aldrich is determined to restore the Europa Empire, he needs a crown
The crown that symbolizes supreme power. Therefore, when he asks people to search for the blue heart, he probably wants to recreate a new crown."
Although this guess is a bit far-fetched, it makes sense logically.
"This Aldrich is not good at finding diamonds, but he wants to steal my blue heart. This made Xiao Man sad for many days."
Hearing Ye Feng's complaints, Maria couldn't help but smile.
"Your Excellency, President, don't you know that colored diamonds are the most popular thing now?"
"Okay, that's an explanation."
Ye Feng shrugged his shoulders and then asked, "Then what do you plan to do with Aldrich."
Maria stuck out her tongue and made a playful face.
"President, please don't forget your identity. You are the president of our Holy Cross Society. It is up to you to decide how to deal with Aldrich."
Ye Feng laughed loudly and said smoothly. "Maria, you are my assistant. Naturally, I have to leave it to you to handle matters like this. In addition, this is also a test of you to see if you are suitable.
Take over as president."
"I will notify the Knights of Light and ask them to rush to Austria immediately to get rid of Aldrich." Maria said without thinking.
"Get rid of him." Ye Feng felt a little hesitant, after all, this was all Maria's guess.
"Your Excellency, President, why are you acting like a mother-in-law again? Do you still remember the action plan we set before? Among those partners who are dissatisfied with us, Aldrich is the one who hates us the most. People like this are the only ones who hate us.
Only by getting rid of it can future troubles be solved."
Ye Feng was a little embarrassed, but he sincerely admired Maria in his heart. The woman in front of him was careful in thinking and decisive in action. She was a person who could achieve great things. Ye Feng felt very relieved when he entrusted the Holy Cross Society to her.
"That's fine." Ye Feng nodded, and then warned. "It's best to be cautious when taking action and not to conflict with the Austrian government."
Poof, Maria laughed.
"Dear, if we can get rid of Aldrich, I'm afraid it's too late for the Austrian government to be happy."
Ye Feng was confused, but he also understood in his heart that since Maria could say this, there must be a reason.
"In the past, the capital of the Europa Empire was Vienna. If the Loris family successfully restored the Europa Empire, Austria would be the first to be conquered. This is something the Austrian government absolutely does not want to see. Over the years, although Aldrich has always been
The number one partner of the Holy Cross Society, but he always hides behind the scenes and never comes to the front. The reason why he does this is not because he does not like to appear in public, but because he is afraid of attracting fire. After all, the reputation of the Loris family is real.
It’s so loud that people have to be careful.”
Ye Feng suddenly realized it and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
"It seems that I am really not suitable to be a leader. I have never considered what you said."
"Your Excellency, President, your character is indeed not suitable for being an organizational leader, but you are an excellent leader in my heart."
Maria pursed her pink lips and gave Ye Feng a sweet and passionate kiss.
"Dear, you are my leader. I like you to take me to run marathons together. I like you to take me to the clouds."
Ye Feng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He waved his palm and slapped Maria hard on her pink buttocks.
"Maria, I feel that my whole life's reputation has been ruined in front of you. After a long time, am I just a leader suitable to lead you to run a marathon?"
"Hehe, dear leader, I love you and I only want to run a marathon with you in this life."
