Chapter 257 Hall Talk

After listening to Lei Xiao's words, Burt and Jubai, who were sitting next to each other, looked suddenly enlightened.

It turned out that the reason why this young man's attitude changed so quickly was because he had already dug a hole here.

It is not difficult to see from this that the other party has obviously noticed something.

It has even been guessed that Her Royal Highness Princess Ariel's living environment in the royal capital is becoming more and more severe.

Thinking of this, the two sighed at the same time.

The new city lord of Kongqing Town is undoubtedly much more difficult to deal with than imagined.

But according to the rumors, the other party is just a lord from another world who came not long ago, so the news should be very closed.

Why do you know the current affairs of the Cold Flame Kingdom so well?It's just unbelievable.

"Didn't this princess already say it just now? Since... naturally, I came here on an envoy for the Lengyan royal family where I belong."

I saw that Ariel still had a natural expression, pretending to be calm and calm.

However, judging from the fact that the hand holding the delicate pendant on his chest was almost completely white due to the force.

In her heart, she was obviously not as calm as she appeared on the surface.

Keenly aware of this, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows, put on a resolute expression, and said indifferently: "Forget it, if that's the case, then I can only send someone to forcefully send you back to the capital."

"Wait...wait a minute!"

Finally, Princess Ariel couldn't bear it any longer, and quickly said: "This princess suddenly remembered, in fact, there is indeed another matter for us to come here."

"Appreciate further details."

Lei Xiao slowly raised his hand, signaling for the other party to continue talking.

Taking a deep breath, Ariel continued with a dignified expression, "You must have heard about it, right?"

"Recently, several of my elder brothers have been more active in the capital, and often greet each other with weapons, making the entire capital a bit lively."

"Because of my old age and serious illness, my father is unable to take care of my elder brothers."

Speaking of which, Princess Ariel supported the shining princess crown on her head, her complexion looked a little gloomy.

However, this cowardly expression was fleeting, and in just a moment, a touch of grace and elegance reappeared on her delicate cheeks.

After returning to normal, Ariel cleared her throat, and then said: "In short, this princess is a person who likes to be quiet, and she doesn't want to stay in that place where there are fights and killings every day. It’s an opportunity to come out and relax.”

After listening to the other party's words, Lei Xiao raised the porcelain cup and took a sip of the fragrant tea newly added by the maid.

Although from Ariel's understated tone, it seems that the capital of Lengyan King is not that chaotic.

But it's not hard to see from the flustered expression on the other party's face that he didn't want to go back to the capital.

The matter is obviously much more serious than what the other party said.

After all, the other party was a member of Leng Yan's royal family, so he was naturally stricter in his wording than others.

"If my predictions are correct, the battle for the throne in Lengyan King's Capital should have entered a fierce stage, and it has even threatened the safety of Ariel's own life."

Gently put down the teacup in his hand, Lei Xiao continued to think while looking at Ariel who was pretending to be calm.

"As for why the other party chose to come to Kongqing Town, it's actually quite understandable."

"First of all, this is a remote small town, thousands of miles away from the capital. Even if the capital suddenly strikes, there will be relatively sufficient time to react and prepare."

"Secondly, it is my identity. I am a lord from another world who has just arrived. I am undoubtedly the only one among all Lengyan City Lords who can confirm that I have not joined any prince's camp."

Lei Xiao tapped the metal armrest on the throne lightly with his fingers, and glanced at Ariel again.

"As Leng Yan's fifth princess, she chooses to come to Kongqing Town, so she can obviously ensure that she will not be plotted against by the city lord who secretly joined a certain prince's camp."

"After all, the only ones who want to make her disappear are these princes who also have the right to inherit the throne."

"The above two conditions, coupled with the opportunity to go to Kongqing Town, make this fifth princess of Leng Yan not easily miss it."

"It seems that this should be the real motive of the other party to come here."

The corners of Lei Xiao's mouth could not help but rise a little bit.

Although the other party's small abacus was crackling.

But just as I thought before, for me, this is obviously a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Not only can further obtain a large amount of information about the Lengyan royal family, but it is not impossible to quickly control the entire Lengyan kingdom with the help of Ariel.

Thinking of this, while throbbing, Lei Xiao's gaze scanned the people in the lower position back and forth, and a solemn look appeared on his face.

However, correspondingly, if this Princess Ariel stays here for too long, it will definitely attract the attention of other princes.

It cannot even be ruled out that these people sent a large number of spies and killers to sneak into the city to collect intelligence and assassinate them.

At that time, Kongqing Town will naturally become the target of those princes and subordinate forces.

Therefore, before that moment comes, I must develop enough to fight against it, so that I can better deal with crises like this.

"Maybe this is the so-called coexistence of opportunities and challenges. By then, I believe many interesting things will happen."

Bringing his thoughts back to reality, Lei Xiao was playing with the teacup in his hand, and at the same time said to Ariel: "Since my dear Fifth Princess, you have already informed us of your real purpose, then we can be regarded as standing on the same road." people on board."

Nodding to Ariel and the others, Lei Xiao continued: "Please move, I will let the maid take you to your respective rooms, and I will send someone to notify you when the banquet starts."

Hearing this, Princess Ariel and the two generals of the kingdom once again looked puzzled.

The other party has made such a big circle, is it over?

Shouldn't you be asking about other things?

It has to be said that the young new city lord in front of him is really confusing.

Puzzled, Princess Ariel and her party, led by several maids, began to walk upstairs to the City Lord's Mansion.

When the princess and the others left inexplicably, only Lei Xiao and his subordinates were left in the hall.

Lei Xiao rubbed his chin while falling into deep thought again.

In order to ensure nothing goes wrong, next, I have to make some arrangements before I can further obtain other information from Ariel.
