Working Prophet

Chapter 15 An election without suspense

"Did I win? I am the next lord of Green Field?!"

Ilea opened her mouth wide and looked in disbelief. She couldn't blame Miss Rabbit for being hopeless. The main reason was that the transition from great sadness to great joy came too quickly.

In just that short period of time, Ilea's mood was like riding a roller coaster.

First, he felt proud that he had a chance to win, but then he inexplicably began to swoop down, plunging into the abyss of despair. Just as he was about to crash and kill everyone, he turned around again in the blink of an eye, and soared straight into the sky.

The girl was so dizzy now that she couldn't catch her breath until she saw Marquis Cullen nodded again and affirmed, "Yes, that's right."

Only then did she feel like she had been hit by a huge wave of happiness!

If the manager hadn't warned her not long ago, she would probably jump up again right now, but even though Miss Rabbit finally controlled her feet, she still couldn't hide her excitement.

His chest rose and fell violently, and hot air continued to burst out of his nose.

She walked forward with brisk steps, swore allegiance to Marquis Cullen, and then hugged her supporters warmly to celebrate the hard-won victory.

Of course, she didn't forget the person she should be grateful to the most.

Ilea ran all the way towards Li Yu, but when she was halfway there, she seemed to remember her new identity, slowed down, and showed some reserve of the head of the Arias family.

"Yes, you did a good job, well... just as I told you before."

Miss Rabbit said loudly, as if she was afraid that the people around her wouldn't hear. At the same time, she winked at Li Yu, asking the latter to help and cooperate. It would be easier to talk about anything later when there was no one around.

Li Yu calmly took half a step back to protect his eardrums.

Just as he was about to speak, Ilea made a wait gesture to him again.

Miss Rabbit looked over Li Yu's shoulder and landed on her half-brother. She grinned and gave Blanco a stern smile.

"Boy, what did you say before that you planned to execute me after inheriting the green field? Haha, if I were you, I would have run out of here crying. Hurry up, hurry up, my dear brother, because the three giant wolves will coming soon!"

Blanco has been in panic since he lost the election. He hid behind his mother and only dared to show half of his head. After hearing his sister's words, his little face turned pale.

His whole body started to tremble, and some sharp-eyed people nearby noticed that his trouser legs were wet.

Miss Rabbit turned back to Li Yu as satisfied as if she had eaten two more taels of meat during the New Year, and said, "What did you want to say just now?"

"…………"

"What is this?" Li Yu frowned.

"Let me think about it... Oh, let's call it justice from heaven. You heard what he said about me before. Why, I only allow him to ride on my head and show off his power. I can't scare him. ?"

"You should not threaten a mother's son in front of her." Li Yu reminded.

"Okay, I admit that what I just did was a bit excessive...but I am already the head of the Arias family. Even if Vanessa is unhappy with me, there is nothing she can do to me, hahahahaha." Ilea The more I talked, the happier I was, and I couldn't help laughing out loud.

She was still immersed in the excitement of winning the election, but then she heard Li Yu say, "If I were you, I wouldn't be so optimistic."

"Why?" Miss Rabbit was stunned. After experiencing the previous series of events, the girl no longer dared to underestimate this foreigner who appeared out of nowhere.

This guy obviously doesn't understand anything, and he even needs to be taught some of the most basic common sense on the continent of Bratis, but the suggestions he gives are all very useful.

Every word is accurate, and that mouth is simply more effective than the most prophetic old priest in the temple.

And it was he who just now silenced Vanessa, the most eloquent member of the Arias family, and single-handedly reversed the unfavorable situation.

Ilea simply couldn't imagine how difficult her current situation would be if she hadn't met this weird foreigner last night.

So she had completely forgotten that she and Li Yu were just having fun, and subconsciously regarded the latter as her real advisor.

Li Yu looked around and said, "This is not the place to talk."

"Then go back to my room," Miss Rabbit suggested, "You go there first, and I will go find you after I deal with the people here."

Li Yu nodded.

About half an hour later, the girl and Li Yu met again in the guest room where she lived.

Ilea closed the door, poured herself a glass of mead to moisten her throat, and then asked curiously, "What happened? Why is it so mysterious?"

"How many armed forces do you have in Yanxue City?" Li Yu didn't waste any time and went straight to the point.

"Uh... about three knights from the family came here this time. They have seven retinues, plus twelve warriors, six archers, and my stepmother seems to have hired a team of mercenaries." Ilea After recalling it, he replied, "If we are really in danger, some followers and servants can also join the battle..."

Li Yu interrupted her, "I'm not asking about the Arias family, but about your own."

"Is there any difference between the family's weapons and my own? Have you forgotten that I am now the head of the Arias family, and all the family's soldiers must be loyal to me, and what are you doing by counting the weapons? Yanxue City With Marquis Cullen personally in charge, the security is quite good."

"Just in case."

"Just in case... what?" the girl became more and more confused.

"Some people are not willing to fail in case of failure." Li Yu no longer concealed it.

"Are you suggesting that my stepmother Vanessa might do something to me?!" Ilea's eyes widened, "This...she is quite crazy sometimes. I have felt this way a long time ago, especially for her son. She can do anything, but are you sure she will be so crazy?"

Miss Rabbit was deeply doubtful, "Even if she was greatly stimulated today and had mental problems, besides my uncle Dias, who else in the family would be willing to accompany her to go crazy? I have already won the election, Cullen The Marquis, Sir Romero, and Sir Leo were all present, and there were more than a hundred pairs of eyes to testify.

"Now that I have succeeded my father as the Lord of the Green Fields, it is a foregone conclusion. Now if I stand with Blanco...well, don't you think it's a little too late and the risk is too high?"

"The question is how do you know they are supporting your brother now?" Li Yu asked.

"It doesn't matter when they supported my brother. What matters is that I won and they have to choose sides again." Miss Rabbit didn't know if she drank too much mead, and she felt a little dizzy.

"Of course it's important. You are too suspicious of other people and too trusting of your family and friends."

Ilea was unconvinced, "I admit... I underestimated you a little before, and I apologize to you. It's thanks to you that I won the election this time. I will try my best to repay you when I return to Green Field." Oh, and about my uncle Antonio.

"I really didn't expect him to be a duplicitous villain, especially considering that my father was once so close to him. His betrayal is even more shocking and heartbreaking, but this is just an example. He cannot represent the family. other people."

"Really? Then what's going on with your uncle in the Royal Capital Knights?"

"Well...it's a bit strange that Uncle Torres supported my brother in the letter. He obviously has a better relationship with my aunt Alisa."

After being reminded by Li Yu, Miss Rabbit finally remembered this somewhat unusual thing.

She found it unbelievable at the time, and once wondered whether the letter had been manipulated, because with his close relationship with Alissa, Torres had no reason to choose Blanco instead of her.

But later this matter was overshadowed by that hard-won beautiful victory, and Ilea's subconscious was also somewhat unwilling to accept a certain terrible conjecture.

After hesitating for a long time, the girl hesitated and said, "Do you think my aunt Alisa...

"I don't know, I just want to tell you that no one talked to me until the election started." Li Yu continued.

"I have something to say about this. Is there any possibility that... it's because you are a foreigner and you are wearing strange clothes?" the girl reminded tactfully.

"I am your advisor," Li Yu said calmly, "your stepmother knows about my existence."

"Well, Captain Levin met you in the courtyard last night, and he later asked the maid to arrange a place for you. News always spreads quickly in a noble mansion, so..." Miss Rabbit spread her hands. "It's not surprising that my stepmother heard about you this morning."

"You are right. The same principle applies to the followers and soldiers of the Arias family. Many of them should also know my identity, but no one has come to see me all morning."

Li Yu followed Ilea's words and said, "Not to mention taking the initiative to express friendship with me, I haven't even seen anyone who just secretly came to say hello to me. For a group of people whose glory, life and death depend on the next head of the family. It is neither necessary nor wise for people who are willing to bet on one side too early, let alone go all-in.

"There is only one possibility for this situation to happen," Li Yu looked into Miss Rabbit's eyes and said word by word, "Although the election has not started yet, most people in your family obviously already know that you are destined to lose. !"
