Throne Steps

Saenz stayed in "Black Swan" for three days.Although he has always had that rather ordinary brown-haired blue-eyed handsome face, his intimidating identity is still like a knife hanging above his head, making all the "black swans" who are usually lazy tremble with fear. The level of etiquette has abruptly entered a big step visible to the naked eye.

In fact, Saenz did not personally instruct the "Black Swan" affairs, but when His Highness appeared in the etiquette class and practice field, and turned around several times with meaningful eyes on everyone, everyone still felt the "Saenz" Sri Lanka handed down the troops" pressure.No wonder these guards are tall and straight, with no slack in their posture. It is estimated that no matter who walks around in front of His Highness every day, they have to practice standard etiquette.

Li Chen originally only commanded secretly in the "Black Swan", but now that Saenz came, he basically showed the posture of "retreating to the third line", and his daily task was to follow behind his own leader. The two leaders of the "Black Swan" and the people around Saenz are used to this kind of behavior, but in the eyes of the "Black Swan" people, they only think that Li Chen is really Saenlich's pet.

In fact, Li Chen didn't understand at all why Saenz stayed here, but the effect of using him to beat the members was very good, and Li Chen was happy to hear it.Because the housekeeper didn't follow, and Saenz was traveling with Jane's team, Li Chen consciously followed Saenz to help take care of things that could be handled.The person in charge of delivering the information was well aware of Li Chen's status, and most of the information was safely handed over to him for centralized processing, simply treating this young man as a substitute for the housekeeper.

"A letter from Wiggins?" Li Chen took a look at the ten lines of the news list, and asked after a slight pause when he read one of them, "'Description of taking in more than [-] refugees and planning to arrange them to work in the temple'...how did you say it specifically? ?”

The letter from Wiggins was delivered to Saenz's mansion, of course.But his letters have always been read by the steward and then picked out important matters and reported to Saenz, which shows that his true status is erratic.Now that he delivered the letter to Saenz, the housekeeper in the mansion would naturally check it, and then gather the news that needs to be conveyed to Saenz.

Saenz has always paid little attention to the trivial matters of this "master of the temple", but Li Chen is a little interested. After all, the leader said that Wiggins was unwilling to accept "black swans", so why did he take in some refugees in a blink of an eye?

The intelligence processor narrowed his eyes and thought for a while: "There is no other relevant information, do I need to ask the steward for the original letter?"

"No need for now." Li Chen drew a horizontal line on this message with a pen, and then circled the word "refugee", "I seem to have heard similar things before... Wiggins How many people are there in total now?"

The intelligence processor replied: "Including this batch, it may be more than sixty."

Hearing his answer smoothly, Li Chen wondered, "Did you memorize the number yourself, or did His Highness take care of it?"

The intelligence processor said: "His Royal Highness asked to find out the number and composition of the refugees. The letter from Wiggins mentioned a total of forty people, and it has been verified that there are more than sixty."

"Conceal the report?" Li Chen sneered, "I know. The 'Black Swan' may send spies to investigate the details of these 'refugees' afterward. If you run into them, please help me."

Black Swan?The intelligence processor was taken aback for a moment, as if he didn't quite understand why someone robbed the job of the intelligence department.

"I'm just a little skeptical. I don't need to bother you to mobilize your teachers." Li Chen laughed, "There is no need to pass the movements in 'Black Swan' to 'Witch'. She is already in a hurry, and I don't count as crushing the camel. The last straw."

The intelligence processor felt that this matter should be decided by the leader, but for a while, he was a little uncertain whether Li Chen had already obtained similar approval, so he ordered him to do whatever he wanted.

"I will tell His Highness." Li Chen seemed to see his embarrassment, and said, "If you are worried, go to His Highness and ask before telling your colleagues."

The intelligence processor felt that this was not a dilemma, so he agreed.

"Going to see Wiggins?" Saenz walked to the sidelines, pulled off the towels on the rack and wiped them off, and asked casually, "What are you doing?"

Li Chen's voice was a little muffled with a smile: "Look at the little friends from the past..."

Saenz asked: "Isn't it going to persuade him to agree to the 'Black Swan' entering the temple?"

Li Chen smiled and said, "It's not about your words? It's none of his business, should I persuade him?"

"Maybe there will be surprises?" Saenz glanced back, hung up the towel, walked back to the field and kicked the child lying on the ground: "Get up."

Li Chen collapsed on the ground and pretended to be dead.The hot weather and strenuous exercise made his light single clothes soaked through: "I can't get up, I don't have the strength."

Saenz sneered and said, "You didn't counterattack with half a move just now, so now you have the nerve to say you don't have the strength?"

Li Chen turned over and looked up, looking at Saenz with a calm gaze: "I have made so many moves under your hands, it would be nice if I could leave a whole body. Do you still expect me to fight back? What is the request of an alchemist? Don't be so tall."

An alchemist who consciously participates in morning exercises every day?Saenz smiled, but didn't say a word to Li Chen's words, but his footsteps landed near Li Chen's outstretched right arm: "If you don't get up again, I'll make you really take sick leave."

Li Chen put his hand away and got up neatly.After the morning exercise, his face was flushed with heat. Li Chen wiped his sweaty face and raked his sweaty hair: "Then can I let him go?"

Saenz looked at the child's face, and after confirming that he was only tired, he turned and walked towards the door: "You don't need to waste my time with this kind of question."

"Okay." Li Chen stood behind and smiled, "Then I'll let them investigate the identities of those refugees."

Saenz paused, stood still and turned around with a delicate expression: "Do you think this is the same thing as what you just said?"

Li Chen shrugged: "At least it's the same person."

Saenz said: "'Black Swan' may not be able to take on this task."

It doesn't sound good, but it's the truth.Not to mention that the "Black Swan" currently has a small number of people - it will take some time for Akye's old department to be in place - the positioning of the "Black Swan" is not in the aspect of intelligence processing. To complete a large number of refugee background checks, I am afraid The result will not be quite right.

Li Chen smiled and said: "I know. My people are not in place yet, so I'm not in a hurry."

Saenz narrowed his eyes: "In the future, you don't have to ask me everything about the 'Black Swan'. You always have to bear the responsibility for making decisions."

His own leader's tone was harsh, but Li Chen could tell that this was the second time he had "decentralized power" in this conversation, and said with a frank smile, "I'm not shirking responsibility. It's just that I may run into the intelligence department in the future, and I hope You can make it convenient for them. In addition, on Sean's side, there is no need to keep track of our movements—I will report to you if there is something important."

When Saenz heard this, something went wrong: "Why, you used to act on your own, but now you are flying around with the whole 'Black Swan'?"

"Cough." Li Chen also knew that in the leader's mind, he was a guy with "bad behavior" and "a lot of criminal records", and his smile was a little flattering, "No matter how I fly around, I will work hard with you."

"It's unnecessary if you want to please me." Saenz no longer had any emotional fluctuations about Li Chen's petty behaviors, and said calmly, "Since you have already made up your mind, it doesn't make any difference if I agree or not."

How could Li Chen dare to respond to this, he just smiled and said, "If I want to mess up the command again, don't I still have to take your command flag?"

Saenz didn't answer his words: "Why don't you leave, why don't you just stand here and do it?"

Thinking about it, Li Chen really delayed the leader for a long time, so he hurriedly walked out.However, he knew that the smell of sweat on his body was not good, so he left the training ground several steps behind Saenz.

After Li Chen went back to his room and finished washing, he said breakfast to Khorkina and sent him to the study, and then he went straight to the other side.Saenz "tortured" him on a whim this morning, and then talked for a while, and after washing up, it was time to sort out information.Li Chen didn't dare to procrastinate, and planned to report to Saenz before lunch.

The intelligence catalog sorted out the night before had already been placed in the study.But Li Chen didn't read a few lines, and Saenz's female officer knocked on the door: "Your Highness invites you to have breakfast together."

Li Chen had just underlined a line of words, and went to Saenz with doubts.However, when he saw his leader, he didn't open his mouth to ask. As usual, when the female officer was rejected, he consciously served Saenz for a meal, and fed himself as needed.

Naturally, there will be no food that Saenz can't or doesn't like in the breakfast content led by the female officer, but Li Chen can still properly pick out what Saenz prefers among these foods.Even Saenz, who is perceptive, only discovered Li Chen's quiet caring after a long period of comparison. On the one hand, it was funny that such subtle and delicate care can really get used to people, and on the other hand, it also felt warm.

Although Li Chen usually bluffs and asks for credit a lot, there is no shortage of such jumping characters around Saenz.A lot of them came obviously, but they came secretly and found more opportunities to remind them.It's not that Saenz doesn't like this at all, it's just that when he sees it a lot, he feels satisfied and balances it.But Lichen seems to have done too many intimate things, and some of them have almost become a habit, and he can just let it go, and he doesn't bother to turn around and claim credit for trivial things.If things go on like this, he can still gather sand into a tower, making him gradually solidify the image of "after all, it is for me" in Saenz's heart.

However, Saenz subconsciously realized that it was he himself who gave Li Chen the opportunity to approach, and Li Chen could reach this step.Regardless of whether Lichen did it on purpose or not, Saenz will not go back and pursue it.It is a good habit of Li Chen to subtly infiltrate Saenz.

Li Chen reckoned that the leader had almost finished eating, and finally started to stir up serious business: "I just saw the news that the army of the Rose faction has been transferred to the vicinity of Suoyang."
