Elden: Ring of Calamity

Chapter 140 The Return
On the way back to the Valyrian Palace, Lucia leaned against the table in the carriage, hearing the sound of wheels rolling over the stone brick road, and rubbing the cold and hard lines on the handle of the Dragon Scale Knife with her palm. Immerse yourself in deep thought.

The meeting with Radagon was far less than walking on thin ice when meeting the queen. In the final analysis, except for the deprivation of the Duke of Duoris, all his proposals perfectly suited the interests of the new party.

The abolition of the arena was an inherent proposal that Ladagang had intended to implement long ago, but it was only because of too much resistance from the DPRK and China that it could not be delayed until now.

Relocating the Golden Dynasty, especially the many foreign races in Rodell, to the East China Sea Islands is the fastest way to solve the growing ethnic conflicts in the country. The more fanatical and radical believers in legal fundamentalism, the more grateful they are to the Gulong Dynasty. They solve a lot of trouble.

Perhaps in their eyes, as long as the chaotic, dirty, and outlawed offals are stripped away, the dynasty and even the entire golden tree system will usher in a more prosperous and prosperous world. In this regard, even Radagon himself is no exception.

As for the handling of the Duoris family, anyway, the former guard of the northern border has long been fighting with Osarion to the point of incompatibility. With both parties being members of the new party, Duke Duoris has been in the northern border for three years. With unpopular moves ahead, most of the New Party nobles would have been more willing to support Osarion in power.

And in the current gamble, Carlisle was forced to use the secret technique that is suspected of manipulating the ice mountain monster. The action was not much better. Without involving the interests of other nobles, everyone just turned a blind eye and closed their eyes. The two majesties will not directly attack the two nobles because of this.

But when this matter was superimposed on the taboo act of Longxiang, and was caught on the spot by the ancient dragon and demigod Lucia Shanks, who was most qualified to intervene in this matter, and handed it to the Eternal Queen together with the evidence, the previous The delicate balance between Duoris and Osarion was gone.

At this time, even the New Party members who were displeased with Lucia's status as a god-man had to admit that the Duoris family had to pay a price for this, but the weight of the price could still be discussed.

Half an hour ago, Lucia went to the side hall to pay homage to Ladagang, in order to put the final weight on one end of the swinging balance.

When Xia Bolili handed over the law token given by Radagon, he had stated that the favor owed by Radagon to Lucia in the first battle by the lake was still valid, and this time, it was the time for Lucia to honor it.

King Elden's promise is extremely important, not to mention that Radagon has always restrained himself with the strictest standards, and everything must be perfect, so he only agreed after a little pondering, Not even the slightest bit of hesitation.

With such a measure, even Lucia, who was standing on half the opposite side, would feel admiration secretly in his heart.

Of course, it will probably take a few more days before the real raid of the Duoris family's house is completed. The two visits tonight have already set the tone for the recent action, but before the nobles of this level of family are out of the game, they still have to go through the court meeting. A set of long-winded discussions, deliberations, and votes can finally be settled.

This is determined by the current political structure of the Golden Dynasty where the two parties are divided and check each other. Lucia has seen so many complicated political disputes in his previous life, so Lucia is naturally not surprised by this.

He took a deep breath, then let it out slowly, and unconsciously stretched out his hand to rub his swollen and painful temples. There have been so many things going on in the past few days, which is really exhausting, especially these two games involving two dynasties just now After the negotiations that will take place in the next few decades, Rao felt a deep-seated exhaustion with his current mental strength.

It was almost dawn, and a faint fish-belly white appeared on the horizon.

He just wants to go back to the dormitory and have a good sleep. Xueli has been fostered in the holy tree hall for several days, and if he doesn't pick her up again, he still doesn't know how the little fox will make a mess there.

The carriage drove into the Valyrian Palace, Lucia pushed the door open, and before her footsteps fell to the ground, she caught a glimpse of a bright red figure rushing towards him like a wind, and then leaped three or four meters away from him. rise!

The moment he stood firm, that petite and lovely body seemed to have been accurately calculated thousands of times, and it threw itself into his arms, hanging around his neck like a koala.

"Malenia."

The little girl buried her head in his arms and rubbed vigorously, ignoring the bloody smell on his body that hadn't dissipated, but greedily inhaled the breath that belonged to him. After several seconds, she lowered her head and moaned: "It's been so long. When I came back, I was worried to death."

Lucia wanted to ask like a big brother why she hadn't rested so late and her body recovered too well, but holding Marenia's slightly trembling body, she could feel the little girl's worry and anxiety almost overflowing her chest. Panic.

Now she doesn't know what a high-ranking person needs to be in a city where emotions and anger are not visible. She says she is worried about him, but she is really worried to the extreme in her heart, tossing and turning, sleepless all night, as if the only way to get him is to hug him tightly. Really confirmed - he really has come back.

Thinking of this, Lucia's eyes immediately softened, and he swallowed back the question that was about to be spoken. He held Marenia steady with one hand, and he freed the other hand to gently rub her soft and charming red hair. Rubbing, said in a warm voice: "It's okay, I'm really back."

The little girl suddenly raised her head, and blinked her crystal-like pupils. It was strange that even her elder brother couldn't figure out what she was thinking. Why could Lucia respond to her heart accurately?
This feeling is really amazing.

"It's good that you didn't die outside—" a cold voice came from not far away, "The sum of all the bad things that happened in Rodel throughout the year is not as much as you did in one night, and that Her Majesty the Queen can still let you go It’s really hard for others to come back from the whole place.”

The gentle smile on Lucia's face froze for a moment, she didn't know if she was too tired or just looked at Marenia just now, and didn't notice Lani who was not far away!
The latter was holding Shirley in his arms, standing in the flickering lights in front of the court with a stern face, like Marenia, who had been waiting for no one for how long.

The Princess of the Moon is obviously not as calm as her voice. After being dryly aired by someone for nearly half a minute, the little fox who was sleeping soundly like mud suddenly felt the "pillow" under his head rise and fall violently. Make her wake up.

Opening her eyes in a daze, she looked up at Lani who was hugging her expressionlessly, and then turned her head to look at the flustered master who was holding Marenia, and couldn't help shivering for a moment.
