But at the same time, the alarm bell was ringing in her mind: Oops, something is wrong, what kind of terrible XP has been awakened by me! ! !
Chapter 135. Royal Mistakes
As the exclusive messenger of the royal family and Ida, Crown Prince Hussein approached the Chimera leader immediately after handling the government affairs at hand to explain the situation.
The speed at which Ada got the information was even ahead of most of the nobles and officials in the kingdom.
Although whether she knows it or not will not affect the overall situation, it itself represents the attitude of the royal family.
If you want to win over a legend, you need to be subtle and work hard, even if it is a small thing, you have to do it as perfect as possible.
"So, who did this, and who is behind it?"
Ada stood behind the counter, wiping the cups one by one with a rag.
Hussein replied truthfully: "Griffin Dominion, they are behind the whole incident. Even the team of more than 3 people under Guanglang Mountain was secretly transferred to Junshan City by them."
Ada nodded knowingly.
No wonder, the spirit of those soldiers was not at the same level as that of the defenders of the Lanshan Granary. Their fighting will was so strong that they almost beat Guanglang Mountain down after two days of hunger.
"So, there's going to be another war?"
The girl stopped wiping the glass.
"I can't fight." Hussein was a little proud, but also contemptuous: "With the size of the Griffin Dominion, it is not the opponent of the Sword Lord Kingdom."
"Then what are they trying to do?"
Ada secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She really didn't like barracks life.
Moreover, the way of passing through thousands of troops without even touching one's body is exciting, but it is also too dangerous.
Hussein also followed with a long sigh: "Oh, go to the army, if it were me, I just need to declare war on the kingdom, and then send troops to the border."
The four provinces of Jianjue can't even feed the people enough, and they have to send troops to prevent the enemy from attacking, which will consume a lot of food, and there is no room for a retaliatory war.
Moreover, this will lead to more instability in the domestic situation, and the instability of the ruling power caused by the lack of royal family will also make more nobles want to change.
"Damn, isn't this just being played for nothing?" Ada knocked on the table, and like every authentic swordsman, she accused the faint ruler: "Your Majesty didn't even think about such a big thing." Discovered in advance!?"
Hussain was silent and bowed his head.
Before Windhelm's Valley was burned, everyone only thought that Koriyama City had staged a hasty mutiny, and that the purpose of the Griffin Dominion was only to seize Koriyama City.
But who would have thought that their purpose was not to occupy the territory of this half of the province at all, but to let the four provinces of Jianjue fall into a trough so that they could overtake in a curve.
Also, what's the point of using a barren mountainous area with a population of tens of thousands?
It's better to leave a mess and turn it into a burden and leave it there, so that the sword masters can have a headache.
After a long time, Hussein argued, "Your Majesty can't blame all of this, and the Widow River is too far away from White Harbor, so it's inconvenient to convey information, and the kingship is too scattered. It's really difficult to investigate thoroughly."
Ada understands this somewhat.
This is different from computer games. It is not a matter of moving the mouse and the data can be faithfully reflected on the screen.
It may take ten and a half months just to convey a message between the two places.
Moreover, the ruling structure of this different world is different from the centralized system of China, but very similar to the aristocratic system of the European Middle Ages.
Even if the royal family knew in advance that Junshan City was going to rebel, they could only use various means to induce him, and they could not just ransack the house and replace people.
Because, the Lamo family's right to rule over Junshan City is also innate.
Hastily replacing them will cause panic among other feudal nobles.
As far as the Jianjue dynasty is currently unstable, believe it or not, they will show you a collective rebellion every minute?
Seeing that her country was in a situation of internal and external troubles, Ada was also very upset, and waved her hands indiscriminately:
"Forget it, it has nothing to do with me anyway, and I don't understand internal affairs, so don't talk about it."
Don't look at her commenting on current affairs in a logical manner, and she also understands the political situation, but like most ordinary people, she is an afterthought, and she is far inferior to a professional in how to solve problems.
Hussein comforted:
"You don't have to worry too much. His Majesty has arranged for a backup player among the people of Kunisan before. If he succeeds, he will be able to win the game afterwards."
"Fuck, I'm worried ass, it's none of my business whether you sword masters are good or bad, drink and drink."
Ada pursed her lips, took out a bottle of wine from under the counter and was about to pour it into a glass.
Hussein touched the wallet in his arms, and couldn't help asking tentatively, "How about I drink water?"
"Drinking water, what are you doing in my tavern, just stay there!"
The girl slammed the wine bottle on the counter, waved her hands as if to repel flies, then sat behind the counter, took out a magazine and flipped through it.
Deep Shadow in the corner glanced up at his friend: You don't care about the Sword Lordship, why are you asking such details?
Hussein, who was left alone, rubbed his nose and wanted to think about a few scenes in his mind before leaving, so as not to feel as if he was driven away...
That was so embarrassing.
Just as he was thinking, there was the sound of horseshoes, and then three carriages stopped side by side at the gate of Chimera Head.
136. Fox and Indigo
Six well-dressed people, young or old, male and female, stepped out of the car. They walked into the tavern and looked at the crude layout inside. Some of them were startled by the Chimera head hanging above their heads.
"You are……"
Ada was a little puzzled. While looking at the potted plants in the corner, she also stood up while reminiscing about the deep soft feeling on her hands.
"Oh, we are all colleagues."
The leader, who was in his forties, smiled very kindly: "I came here to help you in this critical time, nothing else."
"Help me what?" Ada raised an eyebrow.
"Windhelm's Hollow was burned. You must know this, but what you must not know is that because of the food shortage, White Harbor will soon issue a prohibition order!"
The man pointed at the several wine barrels piled up on the ground with an exaggerated expression.
Wine requires a lot of grain to brew.If people are directly prohibited from drinking alcohol, there will be no killing without buying and selling, and naturally no one will make wine, thus achieving the principle of saving food.
This is also a very common thing in history.
Prohibition was a fatal blow to the tavern industry. Ada slapped the table hard and reached out to pick Hussein up: "Why didn't you tell me about this?"
"Because there is no such thing at all!"
Hussein was extremely innocent. He turned his head and looked at the passerby: "Who did you listen to?"
The leader pointed upwards lightly, showing pride in his modesty: "I have someone at Marshal Sunburn's mansion. This is the latest news that came out early this morning."
"Marshal's Mansion? Why didn't I know!?" Hussein looked strange.
"Ha, that's because you're not good enough."
The middle-aged man patted Hussein on the shoulder, looked at Ada, and continued to be kind: "But you don't have to worry too much, we are all colleagues, and I am here to help you solve this problem."
"How can I help?" Ada looked at the man coldly.
Since Hussein has said that there is no such thing, it must not be.
So, these people should be liars, right?
"I happen to know the team leader who is in charge of the security of this street. Just say hello, and then don't make too much noise and sell some alcoholic drinks secretly. It's nothing to worry about."
One of the middle-aged female visitors nodded.
Although she looked a bit mean, she still tried her best to squeeze out a kind smile.
The last one, who was a little shorter, gestured at his fingernails and signaled: "Attention, it's an alcoholic drink, don't call it alcohol, if you really want to commit a crime, just bite this one to death, and we will send someone to fish you out. "
The leader nodded: "Then let's go first, goodbye."
With that said, he turned around and was about to walk out the door.
The coachman driving the carriage on the street outside has already opened the door eagerly, waiting for the arrival of the master.
"Wait, let's go like this, don't you cheat some money?"
Ada was really confused.
Why don't these people play their cards according to the routine?
Logically speaking, shouldn't you ask yourself to pay some benefits, or even sign a prostitution contract?
"Haha, Miss actually thought we were liars, how could it be possible, don't you know us?"
The leader turned around, saw the girl's confused expression, and sighed helplessly, so he had no choice but to introduce himself:
"We belong to the White Harbor Wine Industry Association, and this time we just want to recruit you as a member."
Ada knows that this association not only has restaurants, but also wine merchants, wine tasters, wine shops and various channels, etc. It is an organization with a large number of individuals.
There are a lot of benefits in joining it. Don't talk about contacts, cooperation and other issues, even the purchase price can be two cents cheaper.
But there are all well-known or successful people in it, how can He De join in such a dilapidated tavern in a slum?
I'm afraid that my annual turnover is not as good as that of others in a week, right?
"So, why me?" Ada asked with doubts in her heart.
"Don't worry about it, we have our own evaluation method."
The leader nodded, his attitude was delicate between reserved and ingratiating:
"In short, we will help you solve the matter of the prohibition, and I hope you can take this new appointment and join us."
There is a purpose in attracting Ada.
They have known for a long time that Mr. Babel, the owner of the Tower of Babel, intends to use dirty means to obtain the secret of the fire cocktail.
But now, the Tower of Babel is closed, Babel is nowhere to be found, and Miss Ada, after disappearing for a while, reappeared here safe and sound.
And although the guard tower was silent from top to bottom, this silent attitude itself explained something.
Aside from the fact that this lady named Ada is the founder of cocktail technology, coupled with her mysterious background, she can barely meet the entry threshold of the Liquor Industry Association.
Then, those people who helped her a lot by taking advantage of the Prohibition Law and recommended her to join the association, will they be thanked and have a chance to get the formula?
Now that Mr. Babel has already proved by his wealth, playing hard will not work, so let's play soft.
Even if you can't get the formula, it's good to make friends.
Anyway, it's just a matter of one sentence.
For some unknown reason, the leader of the relationship household who was directly demoted from the high-ranking guard tower to the slums had received so many gifts from them before, so it couldn't just be wasted.
So a few people came together and found it like this.
The leading middle-aged man nodded again and said goodbye. Just as he was about to go out, he almost bumped into a city guard in uniform who rushed in excitedly.
"Who, don't you have eyes!"
He cursed first, then fixed his eyes, and suddenly laughed out loud: "Coincidentally, isn't this Indigo, I'm going to find you!"
The visitor was upright, with a dagger in his waist and a whistle stick in his hand. It was the judge who interrogated Ada in the guard tower that day, and later found out that something was wrong, and finally saved his life.
However, capital crimes are inevitable, and he was directly pushed from the top of the guard tower by Marshal Sunburn to the end, and became the team leader in charge of the poorest neighborhood in Baigang. He had only five subordinates, and three of them were still assigned by his predecessor. Empty pay.
But he held his breath. After knowing the energy behind Ida, he knew that he could definitely rely on this white-haired female swordsman who made a big splash at the Kingdom Conference to climb up again.
No, as soon as he got the news from his old acquaintance, he excitedly came to show his love.
Indigo nodded at the middle-aged man: "I didn't expect Mr. Fox to be here, I came this time to..."
The man interrupted him, and said with a smile: "You are here to find me. If you are interested, why don't I help you win a few more positions?"
This man really has good eyesight, and when he heard that he was coming, he took the initiative to come to the door to give him a face, as expected of someone who had climbed up to a senior executive.
"No, I'm here to ask Miss Ada for something."
Indigo choked Fox's smile back with a single sentence, and he immediately looked at the girl sitting behind the counter watching the play, and continued:
"By the way, Miss Ada, you don't know yet, Your Majesty is going to issue a prohibition order!"
Fox hurriedly said: "About this, can I ask you..."
