The sense of indiscriminate north and south of the ancient forest was far away from him.Nuo Ning has already returned to the imperial city openly. In addition to a few regular meetings these days, the doctors of Nightwalk mobilized all the members to force him to rest.

That's fine, he went back to Vichy smoothly.

Fan Saier has been busy with official duties these days, and has never appeared at his door.He was happy to lie at home for a week. When he got up today, he suddenly felt that his right eyelid was twitching, and he lamented that he was too naive before.The fact that Versail didn't come to him meant that Versaille was in trouble, and Versaille's trouble was the trouble of Rixing.Big trouble, maybe with Night Walk.When you come to Yexing, you must find Nuoning.

Recalling Lester's rhetoric in the forest, Vichy can conclude that nothing good will happen today.

problem occurs.

Adair knocked on his door suddenly in the afternoon, saying that President Versailles was looking for him, and he immediately got up and left.When he walked to Rixing's office and opened the door, Versail smiled helplessly at him: "I shouldn't think that I can handle this matter alone."

"what's up?"

"It's about the princess."

"What's the matter princess?"

"Didn't he tell you?"

Nuoning suddenly remembered that Versaille had indeed told Vichy not long ago that the princess was ill.In order to suppress his own identity, he did not allow Adair to study in depth, and handed over the matter to Hikyo.If what Versaier said was this matter, then Versaier is still cheating him.

To be precise, it was a fraud against Vichy.

"You think I'll know?" He asked coldly, "My news is not so sensitive yet."

"I thought you knew." Versaille smiled, as if he was happy that Vichy was not a nocturnal person.However, this happy arc quickly dissipated. Since Nuoning didn't know about the princess, he had to start from the beginning: "About a month ago, the princess said that she had a stuffy nose and chest tightness and was prone to sleepiness. After the doctor diagnosed her, she said it was a cold. Just drink some medicine."

"Well?"

"We didn't pay attention to it. It's common to feel uncomfortable when the seasons change. But half a month ago, the princess's sleep time became more and more irregular. The teacher recorded that the princess took a long time to wake up in the morning, and she often felt sleepy in class. There are signs of sleeping more and more."

"You mean, the princess sleeps more and more." Before Versaille finished speaking, he had already guessed: "Developing in the direction of Sleeping Beauty?"

"Yes."

After listening to the answer, he took a few steps to the left and stopped in front of the calendar hanging on the left wall.There is a big red circle in the middle of the calendar, and there are comments written in small characters next to it.He touched the calendar paper and read the words on it: "No. 15 of this month, summer festival."

The Summer Festival is held every four years. Although it is held very frequently for humans with too long lifespan, it is the prosperous age of the country.Every time a festival comes, people from all over the country will gather in the imperial city to play, to play, to meet the royal family, and to find the spiritual support in their hearts.

In this democratic yet quite autocratic country, the royal family is an unshakable spiritual pillar.It's hard to say why, after tens of thousands of years of living like this, people have long been used to it.

Therefore, the royal family cannot be scattered or chaotic.

"There are still ten days before the summer festival. The princess is sleeping an extra hour every day, and will sleep for 24 hours on the day of the summer festival."

24 hours a day is no different from sleeping to death.

For summer festivals in the past, he would arrange everything half a month in advance.This time, because the matter of the ancient forest was inseparable, I gave Adair the full authority to supervise and supervise Rixing to do it. I never thought that such a big mess would happen.No, you can't blame Rixing for this.He changed his mind, they have been too comfortable in the past 100 years, the demon world was severely damaged by the last war, and they have never troubled them.Now that it has recovered, troubles will naturally arise.

On the surface, Leicester maintains a neutral policy towards the human world, but sneak attacks one after another secretly.

Now that it has been calculated, let's find a way to deal with it.

He thought for a while, sat back opposite Versailles, and asked directly: "Have you contacted the demons?"

"Contacted, they do not intend to take responsibility for this matter."

"They are not responsible for this matter." He snorted coldly, "I can't think of anyone who is so boring and poisonous to the princess except the Demon Realm."

Everyone knows that the princess cannot be broken.If someone intends to control the real power, they also need to use the princess as a shield to pretend to be a puppet government.Unless someone is really bold enough to subvert the tradition of tens of thousands of years and completely revolutionize the human world from the inside out.

Those who can do this have already been strangled to death by him on the edge of the cliff.So the only suspects are the demons.

His heart is very stuffy.

However, Versaille's next sentence almost made him lose his breath.

"I know. So I buy him coffee in your name."

Without his consent, Versail made an appointment for him to meet the demons.Judging from this tone, it was probably the devil who was meeting with him, and the devil had the most right to speak and was the mastermind behind the scenes.He has dealt with the devil many times, and he is the most experienced in day and night travel.

He doesn't want to go.

No reason, just a conflict in my heart, I can't see clearly.

But he must go.

He had no choice but to accept his fate and agreed: "I understand. Tell me the time and place, and I will negotiate." But you must prepare for the worst, and he said: "If it really can't save you, use the old method."

Everyone knows what the old method refers to.In order to ensure that the royal family has successors, one or two people will be hidden among the newborn children of the royal family as shadows, and when the person pushed to the stage dies unfortunately, they will be replaced at any time.Whether it is to enjoy the glory and wealth but stand on the cusp of the wind and waves to be happy, or to live in peace but have no name and no merit, this is impossible for the princess and her shadow to guess.

Versaille knocked on the table, and there was no better way, so he could only acquiesce in this dishonorable approach: "It's really not possible, this is okay. It's just..."

"Stop it, I'll take all responsibility."

He didn't let Versaille continue to say that once the old method was implemented and one of the royal descendants died, he and Versaille would have to take responsibility.It is easier to change to Versaille in the light than to change to Nuoning in the dark.Although 20 years earlier than he expected, Camilla is now capable enough to take over Nightwalk.He can retreat with the flow, come back to do a little favor when necessary, and live a pretty good life.

"you……"

As soon as Versail opened his mouth, there was a knock on the door outside.The Senate sent envoys, asking them to go to the small central conference hall now, saying that they have something to summarize.Good things don't go out, bad things have meetings every day.The two looked at each other, got up and went to the conference hall.

The last time he tried his best to solve the crisis, the demon world actually said afterwards that it was an act of capture and occupation by the local army itself, and had nothing to do with the central government.The Demon Realm came and withdrew quickly, and the economic loss was not too great. Although he knew that Lester had indicated that he had participated, but in order to maintain the superficial calm, let this matter go.As for the people, just fool around, saying that there are no radical organizations in any place, and it is normal to attack several cities.In this way, more than half of the people actually believed it. In addition to condemning the demon world, they also scolded Yexing and Rixing for being soft-fed, and they couldn't even guard the small border town.

The atmosphere of the meeting was more dignified than last time.As soon as Nuoning entered and sat down, the whole venue was silent, and no one spoke for 10 minutes.It was the highly respected consul who spoke first: "Now it's not about who is at fault, everyone is at fault in this matter."

The consul's eyes swept over him and Versailles, the meaning couldn't be more obvious.He wouldn't back down from that, and Versailles was on his side.Since it was said that everyone was at fault in this matter, and the Senate could not escape, why did they blame them.

Neither he nor Versailles responded.

When the consul saw this, he brought up the previous incident: "Nuo Ning, you have worked hard in the past few months. You have handled the previous matters very well, and you have set an example for everyone. But—"

"However, the security work of the night tour has been a mess recently, and there have been loopholes in all aspects, ranging from small banks, medium performances, and large borders. They have failed to take preventive measures, allowing the demons to take advantage of it."

He finished it by himself.This is not very difficult. Think about it and know what the Senate can catch him. It is nothing more than something that everyone is at fault and he has to bear it.He also lowered his eyes, as if he was taking responsibility for his faults and reflecting on himself, but the bursts of coldness emanating from his body have completely shown that his inner activities are not peaceful.

Yexing can admit his mistakes, but he must not be bullied.

"Nuo Ning, if you don't, you are lucky." The consul heheed twice, accepting his gesture. "The matter about the princess can only be said that the demons are too cunning to poison the princess when we are not prepared."

"The demons have been restless recently, and we will be more vigilant in this regard." Versaille interjected, "We have already made plans for the princess, and I believe that the summer festival princess will be able to leave on time."

"Hehe, that's good. Today's meeting was originally to see if you have a specific plan. If not, let's discuss it together. Since you are ready, the Senate will definitely cooperate."

The words have come to this point, and it is polite to say any more.Nuo Ning simply stood up, nodded and apologized: "Sorry, I'm not feeling well, so I left first."

Although the consul knew his displeasure, he could only laugh and said, "You should, you go."

"Then there are matters waiting to be dealt with in the day trip, consul, I will also retire first."

After taking his farewell politely, Versail walked quickly along the long corridor of the conference hall, and finally stopped Nuoning when he was approaching the entrance of the conference hall.Nuoning turned around and looked at Versaille who was chasing him. The chill on his body subsided unconsciously, and his tone remained in the state of sarcasm just now: "What does President Fan want from me? To be a lobbyist for the Senate? "

"Don't dare." Versail smiled slightly, "I just came to praise you for doing what I always wanted to do."

"You mean openly contradicting the consul of the Senate?"

Versail nodded, but said again: "Yes, but I just want to remind you, don't make the relationship too rigid, and it will be difficult to deal with it later."

"It won't be too rigid." He is still confident about this point, "If I want to, they will definitely not vote against when I want to vote for it."

"With your charm of swiping your face card, it's quite possible."

"So what are you worried about, make arrangements for my meeting with the Demon King."

Nuoning turned and left, but she didn't know that things would backfire.Nuo Ning could succeed in brushing his face, but Shi Weixi couldn't.
