"I thought I was going to die! Did you notice just now? That lightning Bajed touched the hilt of his sword, he must be asking for instructions whether to kill us or not!" Hrank said with lingering fear.
After getting the remaining commission money from the palace, Yili and her team of four counselors returned to the tavern, hid in a corner, unfolded the screen, and began to "divide the spoils."
"Wait a moment." Yi Li instructed, then took out an anti-eavesdropping scroll from her small satchel and used it before signaling everyone to continue.
"But why didn't the emperor kill us to silence us in the end? To be honest, if I were the emperor, I would definitely silence us." Imina raised a question.
"It's all because of what Sister Yili said. To be honest, Sister Yili, did you really not do it on purpose?" Hrank once again looked at the man in front of him who looked harmless but was actually extremely shrewd.
said the little sister.
"Huh? What's the purpose? I don't understand. I just want to get back the remaining commission fees and save everyone's lives." Yi Li blinked cutely and pretended to be confused.
"But why didn't the emperor silence us? Hrank! Please explain!" Imina, who didn't know why, grabbed Hrank and said.
Uncle Luoba was still counting the gold coins and did not participate in the conversation.
"Because we still have value! Didn't sister Yili say before that she looks very much like the princess, and Yili has been revealing to the emperor that the princess is someone who can negotiate with others?
, so the emperor naturally wants to use Yili as a hand card." Hrank explained.
Yili looked at them both pretending to be like, "What are you talking about?" Basically, what Herank said was correct.
Iri is nothing more than conveying a message to the Blood Emperor, that there is someone in Nazarick who can negotiate, and that person is her, the princess!
After all, I have read the script... I know that the Blood Emperor's initial response plan after his visit to Nazarick was originally to alienate Xiao Di, but now Yili just wants to direct the target of the Blood Emperor's alienation plan to herself.
It's much more convenient with one foot.
"Isn't Sister Yili the only one who is valuable?" Imina still didn't understand.
"Imina, if someone killed us all and then threatened you to work for him, would you be willing?" Uncle Roba said while counting the money.
"Of course not!" Imina answered directly without thinking.
"So that person just pointed his sword at our necks and asked you to work for him?" Uncle Luoba pushed the divided piles of gold coins in front of the others, probably wanting them to count them again.
"Uh... this is... I guess you can!" Imina said with some confusion. Looking at the small pile of gold coins pushed in front of her, Imina only glanced at it and did not count it.
"As Uncle Luoba said, the reason why the emperor still keeps us is because he wants to put the sword on our necks to force Sister Yili to do things for them." Hrank also simply glanced at the pile of gold coins.
I didn’t even start counting.
"Alas..." Imina understood, and also understood why sister Yili made up such a lie. She just wanted to let the emperor know that they were still valuable and could not kill easily.
"I have to say that Yili is too shrewd..." Miss Arshei looked happy when she saw the pile of gold coins pushed in front of her eyes. She didn't count them, but grabbed them and stuffed them into her pocket.
"Huh? What are you talking about? I just want the emperor to believe that we lied about how we escaped safely! Does the emperor want to kill us and silence us?" Yili pretended to be confused.
"Uh...Sister Yili, um...didn't you say at the beginning that you would be in danger if you wanted to fight against the imperial royal family? Why..." Hrank showed a rather confused expression, and then put down the small pile of gold coins in front of him.
Pushed it in front of Miss Archie.
"Hmm? Yes... I did say that, but I didn't know that the emperor was directly behind the scenes... I think since he is the emperor, he shouldn't do such a dirty thing as killing people and silencing them. Besides, he will kill us.
There is no benefit, right?" Yili continued to pretend to be confused, and then pushed the small pile of gold coins in front of her in front of Miss Arshe.
"So is this a mistake??" Imina also pushed over.
"Just treat it like this." Uncle Luoba looked embarrassed and pushed the gold coin over.
"Ah...everyone...this...I can't accept it. This is what everyone paid for with their lives. I can't..." Miss Arshay looked touched.
"Accept it, Arshei, this money is very important to you. You need money to raise two sisters alone." Hrank said with a smile. Imina and Uncle Roba both showed smiles.
.
"If it's not enough, let's talk! After all, I am also a princess, so I still have pocket money and so on!" Yili added playfully, and everyone laughed out loud.
"Thank you...thank you everyone." Archie's eyes were a little wet.
"So Arshay, what are your plans next? I said before that I would take out the two sisters. What are your plans after taking them out?" Hrank asked.
If Archie wants to take care of his sister, he shouldn't participate in commissions anymore, right? At least... he won't participate in commissions that may involve life-threatening risks, right? But in this situation... even this is difficult. Hrank looked at Yi
Rei glanced at...thought.
"I plan to find a house nearby and send my sister to study." Arshe said with a happy smile on his face.
"Absolutely not!" Herank, Uncle Roba, and Imina shouted in unison. This reaction not only shocked Arshe, but also Yili.
Why not? Isn’t this a good idea?
Find a small room in the capital of the empire and go to school. It is better to see that the prosperity of the capital of the empire is better than that of the countryside. Besides, the empire will become a subsidiary country of Nazarick in the later period, and there is no need to worry about being troubled by war. Yili
Very puzzled.
"Arshei! You have to think clearly... We are now in a situation where the emperor will put a sword on our necks at any time. If you let your sister live in a place like this, it's hard to say whether the emperor will put a sword on you.
On my sister's neck." Hrank said worriedly.
"Ah!" Arshei suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem. If it were the Blood Emperor, he could really do such a thing!
"..." Yili also understood. It seemed that she was still negligent and actually forgot about Arshe's two sisters.
No... It should be said that Yili didn't take Arshe's sister into consideration from the beginning. This is really not okay... Not to mention that the four counselors have their own protection, so nothing will happen.
But Miss Archie's sister is different. Even if the eldest miss leaves the team to take care of and protect her sister...with the eldest miss's fighting power...it will only take a minute to be captured, but it is not easy for the eldest miss to take two
Just a little lolita following you everywhere, right?
Uh...what should I do?
Ah...yes!
Yili immediately thought of a solution.
"Okay, sister Arshe, go and pick up your two sisters first...and then I will take you to a good place." Yili said with a smile.
Yes! The second safest place in the world - Karn Village.
