Chapter 69: Difficult Negotiations
"Anything else you want me to help with? And it's a state of emergency? Yulia frowned, she had been planning her next move just now, in the past few days when she came to the royal city, in addition to dealing with the things that Heliga had asked her a long time ago, all her energy was focused on finding and concentrating on the members of the guards who were acting secretly with her, and at this critical moment, Heliga suddenly appeared again, which was really unexpected to her.
"yes." Heiliga did not deny it, "And this favor is only for you......"
"What is it?" Yulia felt that things were not that simple.
"I don't want to hide it from you." Heiliga was open and honest, "I need to see the Queen herself...... Now, right now. β
ββ¦β¦ Why? Yulia's tone was alert.
"Because the plan has changed...... It is only now that I have discovered that if I can directly get the Queen's acquiescence, that is the real value...... Tonight is probably the last chance. β
"With all due respect...... Whatever the reason. Yulia shook her head resolutely, "Not to mention this matter itself is particularly abrupt...... For the sake of His Majesty's safety alone, I cannot accede to this request. β
"You let Estelle and them go." Heliga didn't give up.
"The two of them are trustworthy because of the good reputation of the Guerrilla Association, and partly because they are the children of Mr. Cassius, who loved the country and made great achievements for Liber. I can't turn them down. But you are different, you are from the empire on the surface, but you don't know what background and energy you have behind the scenes, although we can reach an agreement on temporary cooperation for a common purpose, but if it comes to Your Majesty...... I had to refuse. β
"It's more determined than I thought." Hailiga smiled bitterly, "Can't you be accommodating?" β
"I can't." Yulia's attitude remained unchanged, "Please go back, two of you." β
"That's terrible...... "Heliga said in his heart, if he can't get the pass token given by Yulia here and connect with the people in the palace, it will be too difficult to get around the defenses alone, and see the queen herself...... And if it is discovered, the consequences are unimaginable, so it is absolutely impossible to force your way in without help. But Yulia was so resolute in her refusal...... Heliga thought to herself, the magic light in her hand flickering and flickering.
Do you want to take this opportunity to force it out? Of course, the hidden danger is also very big, first of all, Yulia herself is also a master of swordsmanship, and her mind is not so easy to shake, in case of failure, it will be a break with Yulia in advance. And even if you succeed, when you meet again after the matter is over, you will inevitably be embarrassed, no matter what, using this trick means losing a partner forever, in every sense......
However, just as Heliga was distressed by this, Faye called out to Yulia: "Sister Yulia......"
ββ¦β¦ Xiaofei? Yulia stopped abruptly and turned around, with a bit of kindness in her cold tone: "What's wrong?" β
Also, after all, during the time when she was injured, it was Fei who had been taking good care of her to recover so quickly. And compared to the so-called "negotiations" that she uses all kinds of temptations and threats from time to time, Fei never seems to have ever said these things to Yulia, so the relationship between the two is more intimate.
"Although I can understand the concerns of being the captain of the guard," Fei pondered the wording...... "but, no matter what we think, there is no reason to hurt the queen, right?" β
"This ......," Yulia pondered.
"yes, you should think about it more." Seeing such a good opportunity, Hailiga immediately struck while the iron was hot, "What's in it for us to threaten the Queen?" Rather, she is a symbol of the country herself, and we can't wait to please her. β
ββ¦β¦ Also...... If they had any idea of Her Majesty, it would be the safest thing to do with Colonel Richard, at least not to help Estelle and them in opposition to the Intelligence Department...... Moreover, although Mr. Cassius is not in the country now, he cannot be dragged somewhere else forever, and whoever wants to do something out of the ordinary must also weigh this threat...... What's more, even Richard, who planned the coup d'Γ©tat, could only imprison His Majesty half-coercively and half-coaxed, not to mention outsiders like them......"
ββ¦β¦ Our goal has remained the same from beginning to end, which is to find the person who is a threat to us, and who for you are also behind the coup d'Γ©tat. Yulia, who was lost in thought, did not hear the majority of Hyliga's persuasion in the middle, only the last paragraph.
"Hey...... Okay, okay. There was a suffocating silence, and finally, Yulia nodded, "It's just that I'm only responsible for giving you the opportunity to meet Her Majesty, but I don't care about anything after that." β
"Of course, I'll leave the conversation with the queen to me." Heliga patted his chest and assured.
"You and Xiaofei, only one person can go." Yulia continued, "Estelle and Joshua themselves are members of the Athletic Tournament Champion Team, and they have a formal reason to go in, but you two are not. If His Majesty blames him when the matter is over, I will have room to maneuver. β
"Makes sense, that's your difficulty, I can understand that." Helliga nodded, "And from a safety point of view, it's better to go alone." β
"In that case, I'll leave it to you." Fei nodded, "After all, you are the mastermind." β
ββ¦β¦ The mastermind is too ...... or something. Well, just leave it to me anyway. β
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
"Alright, this should be it." Heliga looked at the towering gates, "I'll leave the rest." β
"That'...... I'm waiting outside? Fei tilted her head.
ββ¦β¦ Seems like that's a bit ...... Too idle?" Heliga thought for a moment, "Well, that's fine, you can get some rest." β
"Hmm. That's it. Fei nodded.
"That's right...... Thank you just now. Hailiga scratched his head, "What an accident, Fei will also use favors to attack." β
"It was Helliga who convinced her, not me." Fei shook her head.
"Don't say that. It was because of her relationship with you that it led to that moment of relaxation. In a sense, that's more valuable. β
"Is that so?"
"yes...... Even the worst of people would not want to owe a debt of affection...... This is human nature. "Alright, now it's time for the assaultβ"
ββ¦β¦ How do you get into this kind of royal city? Fei secretly wondered, the gate is not open, and the city wall is so high, how can this be possible?
"Feim......" was followed by the slightly mysterious whisper of the young man.
