After crossing, I marked the Empress

Chapter 187 The Catfish Effect

It was close to 11pm.

The whole Forli Castle is like a monster crawling by the sea, quiet and dangerous.

The giant was motionless, not even breathing.

Everything is silent, and the sound of the waves beating against the rocks is particularly surging.

Gu Junwan led the entourage to the top floor of the dormitory area, and was immediately stopped by the guards with guns.

A man who looked like a captain raised his arm and gave a military salute: "Your Majesty, please wait a moment!"

After finishing speaking, the man turned around and went to the room where Freelot was to report.

The guest can do whatever he wants, even though Gu Junwan is the empress of the Federation, she still has to abide by the rules in Fry Castle.

During the waiting time, she once again reviewed all the fragmented information she received today in her mind.

The moment she learned that Shen Han had an accident after injecting the inhibitor, she smelled a hint of conspiracy.

She knows exactly what kind of temper her own alha has.

Someone used means to cause the incident and create chaos.

If its purpose is not to affect the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries, it is probably a family matter inside Free Castle.

It is actually very common for powerful families to seize power, and Gu Junwan herself has experienced it herself.

Therefore, it is not difficult for her to deduce this layer.

Jiang Xinyue's previous report confirmed her guess.

Combined with some key details after the incident, she came to a conclusion: Grand Duke Free was secretly promoting the development of all events.

If it wasn't for the boss's nod, the Queen's team wouldn't even be able to enter the gate of Free Castle.

Not to mention that like now, a group of federal guards with guns can move freely in the accommodation area.

Soon, the door of the room where Freelot was located was opened.

A middle-aged woman came out steadily.

The woman was wearing a maid costume with a lotus leaf skirt, and a ribbon bow was tied at the neckline.

Except for the vicissitudes of his face, other places are very well-behaved, and there is nothing particularly attractive.

However, Gu Junwan faintly felt that the oncoming maid was not as ordinary as she seemed.

In order to verify a certain conjecture, when the other party approached, she suddenly looked into the eyes of the maid.

Catherine was saluting the Federation Empress according to the etiquette, but in an instant, a terrifying pressure swept towards her.

It was as if a whole mountain had fallen from the top of his head, and the feeling that he was about to be submerged by earth and rocks was suffocating.

Her muscles tensed at this moment.

Under the simple servant's clothes, it seemed that there was a dormant beast hidden.

Realizing that she had exposed her edge instinctively, Catherine immediately restrained her killing intent.

Her muscles relaxed, her breath quickly became smoother, and in just two or three seconds, she returned to that serious and slightly dull look.

After confirming that she was in the same state as usual, Catherine looked at the young lady in front of her with deep meaning.

At this time, Gu Junwan no longer gave the other party her eyes.

The lady has already got the answer.

The unattractive woman in front of her is very powerful. It is estimated that even Shen Han is not her opponent.

Grand Duke Free put such a first-class expert next to Little Lott, obviously to be wary of people with evil intentions.

In other words, those servants who thought they could secretly lay hands on Little Lott had actually been hopping around under the noses of Grand Duke Free.

After realizing this point, Gu Junwan was thoughtful.

Why did the other party do this?Is it to create a catfish effect?

When catfish endanger the living environment of small fish, it will also greatly activate the survival ability of small fish.

Just as she was thinking about it, Catherine said in a respectful voice: "Your Majesty, Young Master Lott is very happy to know that you are here. Next, please allow me to lead you into the house."

Speaking of this, she raised her eyes and glanced calmly at the guards behind Gu Junwan: "Sorry, please wait outside for the time being, Free Castle has prepared an exquisite tea break for you, I hope you like it .”

It meant that Xu Zhao could only be allowed to accompany the female gentleman into the house.

How could the guards accept such an arrangement.

Ning Xi took a step forward and was about to raise an objection immediately.

Just now, she clearly sensed the terrifying aura of the maid in front of her.

Although it was only for a short moment, she was convinced that the danger she perceived was real.

The queen is the person that all the guards have sworn to protect with their lives.

No matter how powerful the enemy in front of them is, they will not back down half a step.

"Ning Xi, nothing will happen."

"You take the team members here to rest for a while."

Gu Junwan's voice sounded first, interrupting Ning Xi's attempt to speak.

The queen's order, she naturally chooses to obey unconditionally.

After watching the group of people enter the room not far away, she led all the team members to stand solemnly on both sides of the corridor, keeping vigilant.

Compared to the nervousness of Ning Xi and the others, Gu Junwan seemed calm and relaxed.

Everyone knows that he was invited to step into Free Castle, unless the owner here can't bear to die, otherwise, there will be absolutely no problem with his own safety.

After Gu Junwan and Xu Zhao were welcomed into the room, Freelot immediately ran over.

"Your Majesty, Shen Han doesn't feel bad anymore, does he?"

The little boy raised his head, his sapphire-like pupils were full of sincere concern.

Gu Junwan leaned over slightly, stroking the little guy's warm hair, and said softly: "She's not feeling bad anymore, and I can have dinner with you tomorrow."

Xu Zhao, who followed behind, was still a little tense at first, but after seeing this scene, her back couldn't help but relax a little.

She thought to herself: Shen Han is not just uncomfortable now, she is as happy as a dog who has jumped on her master and spoiled her a hundred times, okay?

After comforting Little Lott, Gu Junwan began to get down to business.

She raised her eyes to look at the guards standing in the corner, and softly asked the little guy in her hand: "Can you contact Grand Duke Free?"

Upon hearing this, Freelot subconsciously turned his head and looked in the direction of the study.

After hesitating for two or three seconds, he nodded and replied, "Yes, then I will call grandpa now."

At this point in time, Gu Junwan was really tired.

She didn't want to waste any more time on unnecessary temptations, so she rubbed Little Lotte's head and said with a smile, "Is it so troublesome to make a phone call? You can go directly to that room and tell him."

Freelot looked in the direction of the lady's finger, and when she saw that what the other party was pointing at was exactly the area where Grandpa was, a surprised expression appeared on her small face.

Gu Junwan did not explain how she knew about this.

She looked sideways at Catherine: "Can Grand Duke Free be invited out?"

As soon as the words fell, the sound of the wooden door of the study opening and a deep and deep male voice came out all at once.

"Your Majesty's insight and courage are as extraordinary as the rumors say."

"Your arrival has made Free Castle full of splendor. Through this half-day discussion, I hope to promote the mutual benefit and win-win between the Freedom Federation and Kesen Luodian in the future."

Grand Duke Free walked out slowly and stopped 15 meters in front of Gu Junwan.

This just right safe distance will neither offend nor convey alienation.

Although this was Gu Junwan's first meeting with Grand Duke Fuli, the other party left a deep impression on her.

The hale and hearty old man in front of him was as thoughtful as the old king, but he was much more sincere than the latter.

There was an important message hidden in the other party's seemingly very official polite remarks earlier.

The queen spent most of the day when she came to Free Castle to discuss, and the outside parties will not hear other rumors.

If the situation were changed, Gu Junwan would accept the other party's kindness and take advantage of the situation to win some relationships with the other party.

After all, the other party's right to speak in Kesen Luodian is second only to the old king, and he is a person worth making friends with.

But Gu Junwan felt uncomfortable when she thought of the old man's layout of everyone as pawns.

If it weren't for the other party's laissez-faire and acquiescence attitude, there would be no servants staring at Xiao Luote around him, and Shen Han would not be plotted to cause trouble when Shen Han suddenly became susceptible today.

When she thought of her sweetheart's pitiful appearance sitting in the mess, she couldn't help feeling distressed.

Based on these reasons, Gu Junwan's reply was somewhat indifferent: "Grand Duke Fuli has strategized, everything is under control, and he also knows how to be willing."

"In terms of courage, you are far behind me."

Grand Duke Frey was not embarrassed by being praised and ridiculed by the female monarch face to face.

He chuckled, and made a gesture of invitation to the other party: "It's just that the situation is forced, Your Majesty, may I invite you to the study for a private talk?"

Gu Junwan knew that the main event was coming next, so naturally she would not refuse the other party's invitation.

She motioned Xu Zhao to wait in the living room, stroked the top of Little Lott's hair, and then followed Grand Duke Free to the study.

Seeing his own mistress 'going to the meeting alone', Xu Zhao was a little apprehensive.

But she knew that she didn't have the ability to change the current situation, so she could only wait patiently in place with anxiety.

Inside the study.

Without the guards, servants and little grandson by his side, Grand Duke Free sighed and bent slightly towards Gu Junwan: "I'm really sorry for letting your alha get involved in the disputes of the Free family, how is she doing now?

If you need help, please don't be polite to me, an old man. "

Seeing that Grand Duke Fuli was willing to lower his posture like this, Gu Junwan couldn't use words to stab the other party as he did just now.

"She's fine now, but I hope you can provide me with the real ingredients and ratio of the injection."

"In addition, I hope you don't let anyone who made small moves in the pharmacy, and who pushed the dining car to deliver pastries to Freelot this afternoon."

These two things are the main purpose of Gu Junwan's coming to see Grand Duke Free.

She didn't explain to the other party why there was a problem with the servant who delivered the pastries in the afternoon. If the other party couldn't tell who was a human from a ghost, then Fort Frieburg would have already become someone else's property.

As expected.

After Gu Junwan's words fell, Grand Duke Free observed the other party's expression curiously, and then slowly nodded: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, even if you don't mention it, I will do these things."

"There are twelve people in total, eight of which are nails inserted by the Freedom branch, and the other four are eyes and ears placed in the castle by other duke families."

"After tonight, these people will stay with the night forever. The information in Free Castle is not so easy to inquire about."
