On the way back, they also passed through a pass guarded by armed forces. Due to their experience when they came in, those people did not stop them at all. Even Lin Zhan and others did not get close, and they waved their hands to indicate that they could pass.
After passing the pass leading to the city wall, there were more passers-by on both sides of the road. It was still such a peaceful time, and the overt and covert fights between high-level officials that just happened would never affect the lives of ordinary people.
I am afraid that only when a real conflict breaks out will these passers-by realize what is happening.
Walking on the crowded street, Lin Zhan's slightly depressed mood returned to calm, and a heartfelt smile appeared on his face.
At this moment, from the corner of his eye, he saw Helian Piaopiao still frowning and obviously absent-minded while walking. He seemed to be thinking about something, so Lin Zhan deliberately slowed down his pace so that he could follow her side by side.
While walking, he gently patted this little girl on the shoulder.
After being slapped, Helian Piaopiao suddenly woke up as if from a dream, and suddenly raised his head: "Ah, what's wrong? I'm home!"
It was obvious that due to being too deep in thought, Helian Piaopiao just followed Lin Zhan mechanically without checking where he had gone.
This rare appearance made Lin Zhan laugh happily, and at the same time asked with a little doubt: "It's still early, I want to know what's wrong with you. You have been absent-minded since just now. You are obviously thinking about something.
Look."
Realizing that Lin Zhan had discovered something was wrong with him, Helian lowered his head shyly, and then said in a slightly lower voice: "It's nothing, I was just thinking about what happened by the city wall just now."
This also made Liuli curious, and she turned to look at Helian Piaopiao, waiting for her to continue.
After a moment, Helian Piaopiao raised his head, widened his eyes slightly and said: "Obviously the Dusk Priest's status is very special, even if the Senate has to show courtesy, why can a shadow guard break out in such a straightforward conflict, even
If you can still talk to her in an interrogative tone, aren't you afraid that a battle will break out between the two parties? No matter how powerful No. 10 is, he will never be the opponent of the Twilight Priest."
It turns out that this is the case, Helian Piaopiao is still worried about all the situations that happened before.
Lin Zhan had already thought about this, and explained calmly: "Because this is the purpose of No. 10. If it can anger the Dusk Priest, that would be great, even if a fight breaks out between the two sides in the end.
, even if No. 10 is killed, it will not make any difference to the Senate, and they can also use this as an opportunity to attack the Twilight Priest, and maybe they can take the opportunity to clear this obstacle."
Hearing this explanation, Helian Piaopiao's eyebrows furrowed even more, and he couldn't help but clenched his fists with both hands. He took a deep breath and tried to calm his mood, and then said in a slightly trembling voice with anger: "This is not
Are you treating No. 10 as cannon fodder, and he can still be discarded at will?"
Before Helian Piaopian finished speaking, Lin Zhan rolled his eyes at her without hesitation, and said angrily: "Of course, otherwise what do you think? No. 10 seems to be arrogant and domineering.
, he is just a cannon fodder who can be sacrificed for the benefit of the Senate at any time."
Then Helian Pianpian didn't speak, he just pursed his lips gently, and after a moment of silence, he sighed heavily, which was considered to be a complete understanding.
Although I don't know what she is thinking.
At this moment, Liuli broke the silence, and while playing with the red flowers that she picked from who knows where, she said: "This is the behavior of the Senate. As long as the goal can be achieved, no matter how high the price is, it will cost everyone's life."
Treat it like a piece of grass."
This reminded Lin Zhan of something. He heard from Beni before that the Senate paid a heavy price to bury those anchor points.
"According to what you just said, the factor that prompted the Senate to suspend burying anchors in my hometown is definitely not that the cost is too high. It seems that there are things we don't know."
Lin Zhan gently stroked his chin with his fingers and spoke thoughtfully.
This is indeed correct, Liuli kept nodding her head as soon as she finished speaking.
Among them, Helian Piaopiao had obviously gotten rid of the topic just now and was able to follow Lin Zhan's thoughts smoothly. After hearing what he said, he asked: "Does this mean that on the issue of anchor points?
, Penny didn’t tell the whole story.”
Since there is enough inference to prove that what prompted the Senate to suspend the Anchor Point Project was not the cost, then it is logical that Helian Piaopiao would suspect Beni.
Before Lin Zhan could speak, he saw Liuli slowly shaking his head: "I'm afraid it's not as simple as you think. In the Senate, Beni can only be considered a younger generation and doesn't know much. What we just said
Those inferences are core secrets, and it’s normal that Beni doesn’t know about them.”
While these people were talking, they arrived at Lin Zhan's residence in the imperial capital. But as soon as they arrived at the residence, they saw an attendant wearing senate uniform standing at the door.
When he discovered that Lin Zhan and others were back, the attendant jogged a few steps and acted very respectfully.
Lin Zhan was a little confused, where did this attendant come from? Could it be that the schizophrenia of the Senate was so serious that they sent shadow guards to try to destroy the corpses of beasts outside the city, and even did not hesitate to conflict with Lin Zhan and others, risking
Seeing Feng Xian losing his precious shadow guard, he sent his attendants to wait so respectfully.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, Duke Lin Zhan, I am an attendant sent by the Senate. This is a letter I have been ordered to give you. Don't worry, this is a letter explaining the situation and there is nothing that could cause misunderstanding."
Lin Zhan noticed that the attendant deliberately emphasized the word "misunderstanding".
This shows that the Senate knew what happened near the city wall and took it as a misunderstanding.
I really lamented the hypocrisy of those guys, but Lin Zhan still accepted the letter explaining the situation. He wanted to see what those guys were going to say to him.
"Let's talk after we go in."
Liuli glanced at the letter in Lin Zhan's hand, then waved her hand and spoke to him.
Back in the mansion, Lin Zhan placed the letter on the table. After looking at the others, he opened it. There was no poisonous cloud or hidden weapon. Just as the attendant said, this is
An ordinary letter.
"Apologise again for the many conflicts we had with you before. In order to express our sincerity, we have thrown the Sun King, the culprit of all this, into the ice hell, and will soon send the self-made Shadow Guard to let the Duke and
Your Royal Highness, the eldest princess, will handle it."
