The group returned angrily because they failed to complete Zuo Li's mission, and Zuo Li could only report the truth to Leng Ling.
After listening to Assistant's report on the phone, Leng Ling looked calm and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Let's leave this matter like this for now."
Assistant was very disappointed, "Your Highness, I'm really sorry, I didn't complete the task you entrusted me with, and I couldn't capture the actual evidence."
"It's not your fault, it's our opponents who are too cunning."
"Your Highness, I believe that one day that person's fox tail will be revealed. At that time, we will work with the three parties to convict him."
Leng Ling's handsome face showed no trace of emotion, "I hope so."
Zuo Li sent people to search for Lieutenant Colonel Geer's family in the towns around Salat, and then expanded the search area. The search continued for nearly a month, but still failed.
On this day, just as Leng Ling and Zuo Li were on the phone, a knock on the door rang outside. Leng Ling turned around alertly, "Who?"
"Your Highness, it's me."
Lance's voice came in a low voice, and Leng Ling's thick eyebrows slowly tightened, "What's the matter?"
"Mr. President has something urgent to do with you and asks you to go immediately."
"I see."
Leng Ling collected her thoughts and came to the president's office.
The atmosphere in the office was serious. Elder Lola, Admiral Kaman and Leng Xiao were all there, and they all looked solemn.
"coming?"
Leng Ling nodded quietly, "Yes."
"Sit down," Leng Xiao raised his hand to signal Leng Ling to sit down. He went straight to the point, "I came here because I just got a secret message from Cosell. Valencia is starting to make moves at the border again."
His obsidian eyes squinted, "Mr. President, they have clearly declared a truce, how can they go back on their word like this? Is this the behavior of a big country? Do they have to let men die on the battlefield, women?
The children have lost their fathers, husbands and brothers, the people have lost their homes, and the whole of Lanson has been reduced to ruins. Will they be willing to do it just like Arsinoe back then?"
"Your Highness, please calm down," Admiral Kaman hurriedly advised. "They have only mobilized their troops for exercises at the border and have not started a war against us."
Admiral Kaman also echoed, "Yes, Your Highness, maybe we are just worrying too much. We only invite you here to discuss the next countermeasures."
Leng Ling moved his gaze to Admiral Kaman's face, and his voice was as cold as frost, "Admiral Kaman, it's not up to you to tell me whether you are worried too much. I just want to know what the situation at the border is like now," when he saw the other person's face slightly changed.
As soon as it got dark, he turned to Leng Xiao and said, "Mr. President, what's the situation over at Kessel now?"
Leng Xiao's voice was deep, "The secret message was not very detailed. It may have happened suddenly, so the headquarters over there only gave a general report on the situation."
Elder Lola, a moderate, said calmly, "As far as I know, Cossel's side suffered a lot of losses in the last few battles, and they just recovered not long ago. In my opinion, since Valencia has announced
If there is a truce, they would not violate the verbal agreement and do something that is detrimental to the face of their country."
General Kaman seemed to disagree with Elder Rolla's views. He seemed to be particularly indignant today, "Their military camps are all stationed in the upper reaches of the Koror River, only dozens of miles away from our border. Doesn't it prove that they are connected to the border?"
What do you want to do when you come down? I think Valencia is obviously provoking, and we should be ready to fight."
Leng Ling put his hands on his knees, palms slightly closed, "President, what do you want me to do?"
"You have been to Cossel, and you are more familiar with the situation there than the rest of us. Firstly, you once defeated the Valencian army and captured their commander alive. Secondly, you have a loud voice there, which is popular among the people.
So after discussion, we agreed that it would be most appropriate for you to go and hope that you can calm down this matter before they start another war."
Leng Ling lowered his eyebrows and thought for a few seconds, then nodded and said, "I understand, when will we set off?"
Leng Xiao pointed at Admiral Kaman, "I will leave this matter to Admiral Kaman. He will help you arrange everything next. You should go back and make adjustments now."
"Then there's General Rocaman," Leng Ling had no objection. He stood up from his seat and turned to leave, "I'm leaving first."
"Go ahead."
When Elder Luo La saw that Leng Ling was leaving, he quickly said goodbye and said, "President, if there is nothing else, I will leave too."
"Well, thank you for your hard work, Elder Laura."
Leng Ling opened the office door and was suddenly stopped by a voice behind her.
"By the way, don't forget to take Lieutenant Lien with you."
Her clear eyes were calm and Leng Ling did not look back, "Naturally."
After the words fell, the open door was closed again, and Leng Ling walked towards the long corridor.
He smelled the faint fragrance of flowers in his nose, and the familiar fragrance dispelled the haze in his heart. He looked slightly sideways to find the source of the fragrance.
In the peripheral vision, the trees in the back garden of the Presidential Palace are lush and green, lovely birds are chirping on the branches, and all kinds of flowers are blooming in the sun, blooming with brilliant and dazzling colors, which is extremely beautiful.
As if being reminded of the best memories in his mind, or perhaps wanting to express his irritable emotions, Leng Ling slowly walked into the back garden.
A golden figure suddenly flashed past among the trees. Leng Ling thought he was dazzled and ignored it.
But when he was about to approach the fragrant orchid bush, the familiar mellow voice faintly raised, "How did you think of coming here?"
Leng Ling raised his head and saw the man a few steps away. He said in a calm voice, "I want to come and take a look. Why are you here too?"
"You have nothing to do, just take a walk," Li En pushed aside the low orchid branches, walked up to Leng Ling, and pointed at the orchids of different colors in front of him, "Look, how beautiful the flowers here are."
Taking a deep breath, his golden eyes shone brightly, "The fragrance of flowers is so fragrant, it's exactly the same as the one on you."
Leng Ling trembled his eyelashes slightly. He slowly raised his hand and touched the purple orchid closest to him. Touching the tender petals, he said softly, "The president just came to see me."
"What did he say to you?"
Leng Ling lowered his lips and said, "He said that the Valencian army has arrived at the border of Cossel and may start another war at any time."
Ying Ting's eyebrows furrowed, "Did he say this himself?"
"Yes, he asked me to take you with him."
"..."
Lien was a little confused. He hadn't heard anything about their movements at the border recently. What was going on with this sudden action?
