691 Something is wrong
The second princess was busy strengthening the defense of her manor. In addition to sending additional personnel, she also strengthened the hidden magic array of the manor.
Of course, Beta also provided a lot of suggestions.
After working hard for an afternoon, after night, Sasha was finally satisfied with the magic circle that was slightly glowing and becoming more complicated.
Then she returned to the room and lay softly on the table. Beta smiled and said, "Don't be afraid of being like this."
"I don't want to be filled with ashes." Sasha sighed: "After the eldest sister killed Liu Mei's mother, Liu Mei's grandparents didn't even say anything. The whole family moved out of the royal city, leaving only a few guards for Liu Mei, and lied to her that it was left to her by her mother. Although Liu Mei had never known that her mother was dead on the surface, she understood it in her subconscious mind, so she had never called for her mother to look for her for so many years."
Beta frowned when he heard this. He watched Sasha's mood become worse, so he changed the subject.
"In addition to your real elder sister, I also found something very strange."
The second princess looked at Beta and said she was listening.
"You royal children are indeed making a small fuss in order to compete for the throne." Beta asked strangely: "There are not twenty of the great noble families in the Flan Royal City, at least ten of them, so why didn't they participate?"
Sasha smiled softly: "This issue is actually very easy to explain. Our royal family's inheritance is resolved internally, and no one can intervene, even the Temple of Light cannot do it."
"There are rules like this?"
Sasha nodded: "Well, it seems to be implemented more than two hundred years ago. Anyway, this is recorded in the books. As long as someone uses external forces, he will be targeted by all other people with inheritance rights."
"But it is difficult to define without external forces." Beta said lightly: "Like the Sixth Princess, is it considered to be using external forces to send three powerful professionals to protect her from my grandfather's family?"
"Does it count? It's useless for us to say it." Sasha said slowly: "It counts after the father says it counts."
Beta just listened... The interests involved in the throne are too great. It is impossible for nobility to take sides, and it is impossible for no one to support a princess or prince, unless the nobles of the Kingdom of Frans are all crazy.
After all, people seek profit. For the sake of profit, those nobles dare to trample on all morals and laws in this world.
Therefore, Beta does not believe that the nobles will be so obedient.
Of course, Beta would not say this in front of Sasha. He saw that Sasha was very proud and satisfied with the royal family.
The two were chatting, and the Sixth Princess Mulin walked down from above, and her expression seemed weak,
She saw Sasha and Beta with a strange look on her face: "I remember that I seemed to follow Cook to chase the prisoner who stole the body. Why was it suddenly at my second sister's house? And it was dark."
Sasha gave Beta a 'you know' look, and then said, "When you were chasing people, you suddenly fainted. It was Cook who sent you back."
Um?
Mulin immediately checked her clothes and body, and finally breathed a sigh of relief after not finding any abnormalities.
"By the way, why do I..."
Beta suddenly interrupted the other party: "I'm not so hungry that I'm interested in a tomboy."
Beta grinned, with a sarcastic look on her face.
Mulin immediately became so angry that her face turned green. She immediately started arguing with Beta, and forgot to ask herself why she fainted.
Sasha was behind her and threw gratitude at Beta.
After a quarrel with the Sixth Princess for a while, Beta went back to the room to rest. The next day, he went to the magic shop to buy some materials as usual, but on the way back, he was blocked by a middle-aged bald man.
Bald Beta has seen many bald beta, but this middle-aged bald man, I don’t know that he would give him a ‘bald’ temperament. It may be that square face, or it may be the other party’s calm but sharp aura.
Beta followed behind the other party with three professions who were obviously elite soldiers, but Beta did not feel any malice from the other party.
"Cook Green!" The middle-aged bald man smiled slightly: "If you don't mind, can you talk to me?"
Beta nodded.
The two sat on the balcony on the second floor of the next tavern. The other party looked at Beta and sat down, saying, "You are more handsome and stronger than those in the information."
Beta was not surprised, but just asked lightly: "Have you investigated me?"
"Of course. A man suddenly appeared beside the second princess and the sixth princess. I have to investigate it anyway." The middle-aged bald man smiled and said, "This is the basic ethics of being a royal dog. By the way, I will introduce myself. I am Liqi, the former guard commander of the royal palace."
"Then Lord Lizi, what's the matter with me?" Beta carried the cloth bag in his hand, which contained magical materials: "I have to rush back and conduct magic tests."
"Then I won't beat around the bush." Lizzy's expression changed, from the gentleness just now to the majesty and intimidating present: "The next thing I will convey on behalf of His Majesty the King."
Beta's mind moved and then made a 'please' gesture.
Looking at Betan's calm expression, Lizzy nodded, and a look of satisfaction flashed in her eyes: "The king asked me to ask you, the second princess or the sixth princess, which one do you want to choose?"
The King of Frans is actually selling his daughter?
As the most powerful human empire in the world, the princess of the Francis should never have to worry about marrying, and to marrying should be a political marriage. Now, the king of the most powerful country in the world actually sent someone to promote his daughter in front of Beta.
Beta felt that if he hadn't heard it wrong, then there must be something wrong.
If there is no problem with both, it is true, then it can only be a problem with the king's head.
"Sorry, I'm just the second princess' teacher, and I'm not interested in the sixth princess." Beta smiled and said, "Since you have investigated me, it should be clear that I have a very beautiful alien woman in the manor in Lago County."
The middle-aged bald man nodded: "Although I have never seen her, the report says that she is as beautiful as a goddess who has descended into the mortal world."
Beta laughed and said, "Judy is not only beautiful, but also gentle. With such a woman by my side, do you think I will also like other women?"
"Do you think Princess Sasha is not as good as your alien woman?" Lizzie's face was a little gloomy, as if he would turn against him immediately as soon as Beta admitted it.
“That’s the truth.”
Li Qi exuded heavy pressure and momentum, and it could be seen that he seemed in a bad mood. But in less than ten seconds, he suddenly smiled: "Although I think there are few women in this world who are better than Princess Sasha and more suitable to be a wife, but since you are not interested, then forget it. Anyway, the king didn't force anything."
"Although the king didn't force anything, as an elder who grew up watching Princess Sasha, I hope she can find a good man." Li Qi smiled: "It's rare to see her willing to approach a man. The Sixth Princess is... Although I heard that you two often quarrel, you can still sit together and chat after a fight with her, and you are the first one."
Beta said: "Should I feel very honored?"
"If it is an ordinary noble, it will be fine for the two sisters to marry you." Lizzy didn't mind Beta's secret sarcasm: "But they are princesses of our country of Francis, and it is impossible for both of them to marry the same man. We Francis also need face."
"If one day you change your mind and want to marry Princess Sasha, you can come to me again. Of course, you can't think too long."
After saying that, Liqi left.
Beta walked towards the second princess' manor with magic materials. Along the way, he looked at the bustling streets, people coming and going, crowds of people, and listened to the hawking and noise along the street.
Flan City is very prosperous, lively and rich.
But Beta felt increasingly that there seemed to be many things in this city.
Except for Kahler who is a relatively extraordinary nobleman, the other nobles in Flan City are simply five good citizens.
I did not see them killing people in the street, nor did I see them bullying men and women, nor did I torture and insult civilians at any time.
This is wrong... If there are one or two nobles who can reach this level, Beta believes, but if... almost all nobles are like this, then there is a big problem at all.
It was because King Francis' oppression was too tight that they dared not express their opinions casually? Or, as Princess Sasha said, they dared not participate in the battle for the successors of the throne, so they were all cultivating their own self-cultivation.
When Beta returned to the manor, she saw Princess Sasha dressed up for a while, wearing a big red robe, and was about to go out.
"Don't you bring two or three guards?" Beta said with some concern: "You have been assassinated before, and it's always good to bring a few people with you."
"No, I'm going to the palace this time." Sasha said softly: "My father has something to summon me."
"Then I'll wait for you to come back in the manor." Beta waved his hand and left first.
A maid who came out of the palace said, "Second Princess, please get in the car. The eldest princess and His Majesty the King have been waiting for you for a long time."
Sasha got on the carriage, and not long after, she entered the guarded palace with many barriers.
Looking at King Flan, who was sitting on the big chair in the palace, Sasha's face did not change much, but her voice and tone were obviously weak and even a little scared.
Next to the gray-haired king, there was a woman in black standing.
The woman in black had a pale face, with thick dark circles under her eyes, as if she had two panda eyes.
"Sister, when did you come back?"
