Chapter 102 The Queen's Kindness

After finishing the conversation with Allen, the maid Lila said goodbye to him with a smile, then turned and left, coming to the road on the side of the Mage Tower.

At this moment, a gorgeously decorated four-wheel carriage was parked here.

The cart was pulled by four white horses, all of which looked tall and straight, without a trace of hair. They were obviously carefully bred, purebred horses that were often used by princes and nobles to show off their status.

Before the maid Lila could reach the carriage, the carriage driver jumped out of the carriage, opened the door respectfully, then bent down and bowed to her.

Lila nodded slightly and accepted his courtesy calmly.

Judging from her calm and noble appearance, it is obvious that she has long been accustomed to this posture of being a superior.

She lifted up her skirt and climbed onto the carriage gracefully.

The coachman then closed the door tightly.

The curtains on the car windows also slowly lowered, completely blocking the view of passers-by.

When she was sure that outsiders could not see what was going on inside the car, Lila suddenly grabbed the thick crimson curly hair on top of her head, pulled it off, and threw it aside, revealing the shiny black hair inside, which was tied up high.

long hair

It turned out that that dark red hair was just a wig!

Then, she turned her head, looked inside the carriage, and ordered in a light tone: "Lila, bring me the makeup remover."

Hearing this, the real Lila stood up from the shadows, saluted her respectfully and said: "As you command, Your Majesty."

"Lila" no, it should be Her Majesty Queen Margaret of the Braden Kingdom, with a satisfied smile on her face.

A few minutes later, the freckles on her face disappeared, her wheat-colored skin became fair and smooth, and her facial features became refined, returning to her former graceful and feminine appearance, like a finely crafted porcelain

baby.

"Lila, you should have heard the conversation I had with Alan York just now," Queen Margaret was heard saying, "What do you think of him as a person?"

"He...he is much more handsome than in the photo."

"That's what you'd say," Queen Margaret sneered, "You've always been like this, as long as you see a young and handsome man, you can't take your eyes away. You know, you can't judge a person by his appearance. It's time

Let’s change this bad habit.”

"But, Your Majesty," Lila showed an aggrieved expression on her face, "didn't you say the same thing when you were talking to Allen just now?"

"I'm playing your role." Queen Margaret said calmly.

Hearing this, Lila was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to refute.

There was a brief silence after that.

The driver waved his whip and drove the horses to turn around and gallop towards the direction of the palace.

Along the way, the queen kept looking out the window quietly.

In her blue eyes, the dazzling Mage Tower, the majestic Hagia Sophia, and the winding Boone River flashed by quickly, including streets and alleys, numerous eaves, magnificent mountains and rivers, and thousands of planes.

Alone has no original intention.

I don't know how much time passed, but Queen Margaret finally said leisurely: "Lila, tell me honestly, is it me or the Pope of the Cathedral of Light that the person my people fear the most is?"

Lila said nothing.

But from her cringing eyes, the queen saw her answer.

"That's what I guess." She shook her head slightly, with a bitter smile on her lips.

After a while, the Queen asked softly again: "Do you think... what are the chances that I can turn the York family into an ally of the royal family?"

Lila thought for a moment and replied: "It's a bit difficult. Archbishop Acornelga has been in the spotlight recently. Although Earl William York is a new party noble, he is his largest financial sponsor. I think... with the character of Earl York,

He should not give up this personal connection easily."

"Indeed," the Queen nodded, agreeing with her statement, "I don't know if Alan York's attitude towards the Church of Light is the same as his father's."

"I'm curious too." Lila agreed deeply.

…………

Similarly, after the meeting, Allen quickly returned to his room.

Ever since he saw the sapphire ring on the hand of "Maid Lila", he was already 90% sure that the person he just saw was not the Queen's personal maid, but Queen Margaret herself.

The reason is simple.

He would never believe that a maid who often had to do chores would wear such a gorgeous and valuable ring on her hand.

Silver and blue are also the colors on the royal emblem.

"It's just... why did the queen dress up as a maid and come to see me in private?" Alan thought silently, "It can't be because I'm handsome.

"However, based on her speech and performance just now, she probably has no ill intentions towards me, but is a tentative show of kindness.

"I guess that she may have encountered some difficulties and hopes that I or the York family can provide some help... Or, she simply wants to express a friendly attitude and want to form a friendship with the York family... She can even take this opportunity

, get a share in my new dimension development plan...

"Of course, no matter what her purpose is, I don't think she is stupid enough to choose to offend the York family.

"Since she is willing to help me, then I will simply use the trick and tie the royal family into my plan to make the water in the capital even more muddy... In this way, even if the Church of Light really discovers any clues

, and they didn’t dare to lift the table easily.”

Thinking of this, the plan in Allen's mind became more and more perfect.

He took out a pen and paper and wrote a long letter to his butler Fred.

Subsequently, he wrote several letters and sent them to Queen Margaret, Duke Solomon, and his father Earl William's allies in the capital.

…………

The next day, a piece of news appeared in the Braddon Morning News:

Alan York, the second son of the Earl of Kent and a student of the Mage Tower, proposed a plan to open up the "Alan York plane" as soon as possible when he was about to obtain the title of "Plane Pioneer".

According to Alan York's idea, he hopes to bring a large number of new explosives developed by the Mage Tower to open up the plane, replacing the previous method of hiring magicians, thereby reducing unnecessary expenses.

To this end, he began to collect materials for making explosives, such as deep-sea red algae, rock rose, etc., and prepared to build a new plane portal on the territory of the York family, with great momentum.

Her Majesty Queen Margaret expressed her full support for Alan York's plan and provided him with magical materials from her private warehouse.

In addition to the royal family, the Solomon family, the Christine family, and the Underwood family have all invested in the "Alan York Plane Development Plan" to varying degrees.

Let's wait and see.
