Seyol, the capital of Valencia, the political, economic and cultural center, is also the most prosperous city in the entire continent of Catiala.
When we arrived at Seyol, it was already bright, and the breath of winter rushed towards us. The wind was mixed with a desolate meaning, penetrating through the thin coat and cooling our hearts.
Leng Ling stood in the wind, looking at the rolling mountains in the distance, his obsidian eyes rippling.
Putting on a thick coat, the man whispered from behind, "Ling, let's go."
"kindness."
The car carrying a group of people stopped at the Prime Minister's Mansion. The door opened and black military boots slowly fell to the ground.
At the door of the Prime Minister's Office, someone was already guarding the door. When they saw Leng Ling coming with someone, they quickly came forward and said, "Your Highness Leng Ling, welcome. Prime Minister Karl has been waiting for you for a long time. Please come with me."
"sorry to bother you."
Leng Ling nodded and walked in. Ruth, Lien and Parker also walked in smoothly.
But when Roy and Ralph wanted to follow in, they were stopped by guards.
"You two can't go in."
"We are the followers of His Highness Leng Ling, why..."
"The Prime Minister ordered that only the four of them can enter," the guard said before driving them out and closing the door.
"Why……"
Ralph wanted to reach out to stop him, but Roy stopped him.
Seeing the other party shaking his head at him, Ralph was confused, "Lieutenant Roy, what on earth is going on..."
Although Roy didn't understand the reason why the other party did this, his intuition told him that something bad might happen. But in order to calm down Ralph, he could only comfort him, "Sergeant Ralph, it seems
, the other party is not kind, let’s just wait at the door, His Highness will come out soon."
"Okay, then let's wait here for His Highness to come out."
Leng Ling and his group followed the guards into the hall of the mansion, and another Valencian soldier came over, "Your Highness Leng Ling, Duchess, the Prime Minister is waiting for you two in the office, please come with me."
Seeing that Li En wanted to follow him, the soldier raised his hand to stop him, "The Prime Minister didn't invite you, please don't disobey the Prime Minister's order."
This Valencian soldier was also a lieutenant colonel like himself, but Lien had never seen him before. From the moment he entered the mansion to now, the people who came and went were basically strangers.
Logically speaking, I have only been away from Valencia for more than a year, so it is impossible for so many new people to appear all at once. There are various signs that something is quietly changing.
And since he entered the Prime Minister's Office just now, he has always felt that a line of sight was secretly observing him, but he searched around and couldn't find who that person was.
A very bad feeling quietly surged in my heart.
Perhaps, Richard's hunch was right. The Valencian military headquarters is now under the control of others. The power in the hands of Karl and his father has been slowly removed.
Watching Leng Ling and Ruth follow the soldier and disappear through the door in front, the bad feeling in Li En's heart became stronger and stronger.
Glancing around, he lowered his voice and asked Parker, "Did you take that letter?"
Parker obviously didn't react to what Ryan said, "What?"
"The letter is missing."
Parker thought that Lean was deliberately deceiving him, and his light blue eyes rolled slightly, "Lieutenant Colonel Lean, you don't have to lie to me. I know this is your expedient measure. Don't think that I will believe you if you say this."
Lean's face suddenly sank, "I don't need to lie to you. I searched the entire box before departure, and the letter is indeed missing."
"Oh?" Parker felt a little surprised. He looked at Lien and said with a smile, "I didn't expect that this letter is so important. Besides us, there are people who are also thinking about that letter. I don't know who that person is.
who."
Ryan quickly filtered it in his mind. Apart from himself and Ruth, only Ralph and Roy were left in the entire carriage.
The golden pupils shrank quietly. The person who delivered the tea last night was Roy. Maybe he had tampered with that cup of tea. No wonder Leng Ling seemed to be in a very bad state of mind today.
Why did that person steal the letter, and who sent him? Is it Leng Xiao? Is it Admiral Kaman, or that Sharda?
If this is the case, then Leng Ling is in danger.
Thinking of this, Li En ran forward without hesitation, but the back of his head suddenly felt cold.
"Lieutenant Colonel Lane, that is not a place you can go."
The cold and low voice sounded like it was coming from hell, and Lien didn't have time to identify who this person was.
He frowned hard, exerted force with his right leg, and then bowed down. The whole movement was done in one go, without any pause.
Perhaps he underestimated Lien's reaching out. The other party obviously did not expect this move and quickly took a big step back.
At the moment when the opponent staggered backward, Lean turned around, twisted the opponent's arm with his forehand, and held the gun.
"boom!"
The bullet hit a self-portrait of Karl hanging on the wall, and the entire painting and its frame crashed to the ground, with glass fragments falling all over the floor.
Staring at the silver-haired man in front of him, Lien's handsome face was already extremely dark, "Lieutenant General White, long time no see."
**********
Leng Ling and Ruth followed the soldiers as they walked in the corridor leading to the Prime Minister's Office. Suddenly, there was a burst of gunfire from behind, causing him to stop involuntarily.
"Your Highness, what's wrong with you?"
"There were gunshots."
"Don't worry, Your Highness, some general's gun must have gone off. All the security measures in this Prime Minister's residence are first-class. You can follow me with confidence."
"All right."
Ruth walked beside Leng Ling, her brown phoenix eyes looking at the surrounding situation, and a hint of calculation flashed across her beautiful face.
Finally, the soldier stopped in front of a gate.
He turned around, bowed to Leng Ling and said, "Your Highness, the Prime Minister is inside. Please go in with the Duchess."
"good."
With a slightly cold hand on the door handle, Leng Ling slowly opened the door and walked in.
The black eyes flashed with a hint of surprise after seeing the scene inside.
Inside this door is an empty hall. Except for a seat placed above the hall, there is nothing. As for Karl's figure, there is no such thing.
Staring at the scene in front of him, his handsome face flashed through a few shadows like a dark night. He stepped forward, but he never saw anyone coming out.
"Your Highness Leng Ling, what are you looking for?"
"Where is Prime Minister Karl?"
Ruth shook her head, then smiled and said, "This is not the Prime Minister's Office at all. Your Highness Leng Ling, you have been fooled."
