The young head maid Lumi put her hands on her shoulders with a somewhat broken expression. I almost couldn't help but wonder if she had lost her mind.

"No matter whether His Royal Highness Louis is qualified in the end, Lady Beatrice will still have a grudge in her heart!"

With a mad look on her face, she went to help the princess prepare the medicine she needed to take today, but she never expected that this would happen: "If they get married, your sister will think that you have prevented her from getting married, and His Royal Highness Louis will also remember you.

If they don't work out, you will be regarded as the culprit for their separation, and your situation will be even more embarrassing.

What on earth were you thinking that you would personally take action?"

Olivia felt dizzy from the shaking and said pitifully, "Oh... I, I was wrong. Please stop for a moment!"

Lumi's face was filled with regret.

Her family was a servant clan that had served the Enser royal family for generations, and they prospered and rose together with the royal family. In history, they even had a queen.

Olivia's biological mother passed away early, and before the princess died, she repeatedly asked her to take good care of her sick daughter.

Over the years, she has played the role of both a sister and a mother, and has often given advice to the naive Second Princess. She never thought that she would be so unwise as to interfere in the affairs of the couple.

"Blame me. If I had been more careful and given you a little more warning, this wouldn't have happened."

Lumi looked frustrated.

It is a foregone conclusion that the first princess will be in charge of the empire. Being an empress and being a princess are two different things.

Even the queen's slight dissatisfaction would be like a mountain to the people below her.

Even if that person is Olivia, we still have to be on guard.

But seeing Lumi's frustrated look, Olivia became even more excited.

Isn’t that perfect!

Who cares about the goodwill of "Huo Guo"? She finally came back to life just to teach this bastard a lesson!

If she doesn't deal with this disaster, she might as well go to the countryside to feed pigs!

But she also knew that she couldn't show her attitude so obviously. Even if she wanted to expel Louis, she had to do it in a reasonable way.

She suppressed her laughter and told Lumi about her considerations when talking to the princess. She patted her good maid on the shoulder and said, "Lumi, it's not that I'm reckless, but if I don't make my attitude clear to the princess in this way, she will think I'm being petty and won't take me seriously."

"Don't you always trust my intuition? I don't think that succubus looks like a good person!"

"Believe me, he will definitely reveal his true form during the prince's trial. Sister Wang will definitely understand my difficulties and it won't have any impact..."

No way!

Olivia felt a little guilty after saying this.

Enther is an old empire. No matter what, the frequent changes in orders will inevitably have an impact on the royal family.

But considering the destructive power of "confusing the country", she can only make a choice.

Should we allow the problem to expand, or resolve it as soon as possible?

Having witnessed the end of the prosperity of the Enther Empire, the death of her sister, ten years of house arrest and execution by guillotine, how could she, who was so heartbroken, continue to let it go?

In this life, she would never allow tragedy to happen again! Thinking of this, she began to make plans in her mind.

"How can I trick you?"

Suddenly, she remembered the incident that triggered the prelude to the turmoil in the empire half a year later.

“Got it!”

…

The next day.

Louis woke up from the big bed.

He has already preliminarily sorted out the current situation, especially through the diary. This diary is strange. It cannot be seen by ordinary people, nor can it be touched by people other than him. This has relieved Louis of some of his worries.

The content inside gave him a general understanding of the challenges he would face next.

First is his relationship with Beatrice.

To be more precise, the relationship between the original owner and his first wife was that of subordinates.

The princess was tired of the entanglement of various interest groups who coveted her body and the throne of the empire, and was urged by ministers from all sides, so she wanted to find a controllable object that she did not dislike.

On the surface, Louis is a failed test subject of an experiment by the White Tower wizards, but in fact he may be the only successful case. In order to avoid being sliced ​​by the wizards, Louis has been hiding among the test subjects.

Until Beatrice discovered his potential through some means and met him, and the two hit it off.

The original owner served as a prince and became her secret guard, helping her to fend off those annoying heirs.

The princess provides security for the original owner and discovers his potential.

Even as long as he didn't commit any violation of principle, Beatrice could cover for him.

"It seems like I need to get stronger as soon as possible, there are many people who want my wife."

Louis and Beatrice were not really husband and wife, and when it came to the continuation of the empire, how could the princess be completely unprepared?

In fact, according to the original owner's records in the diary, the princess actually made a backup plan when she was seriously injured and dying.

These policies included but were not limited to issuing a document for the second princess to succeed to the throne, letting Louis serve as regent to protect Olivia, and letting his confidants assist the two as much as possible in stabilizing the order of the empire.

But when Louis came to his senses, he had already put on the yellow robe and ascended the throne to become emperor.

This illegal inheritance was the root cause of the turmoil in the Unther Empire over the next ten years.

There must be something fishy about this.jpg "I have to find a way to save my first wife's life and let her ascend the throne to become the empress. This way, at worst, I can live a peaceful life."

certainly.

The original owner would be overthrown, and it wasn't simply a matter of illegitimately obtaining the position.

Because he is a scum of the world and has even caused a lot of jokes.

For example, after finally turning her life around, she started to shop for free in the capital, buying things lavishly without paying and asking the store to send the bill directly to Beatrice.

For example, when the tax collector told Louis that the treasury was empty and hoped that he would be frugal, Louis immediately said, "I don't care about the flood after I die."

For example, when there was a great famine 10 years later, the local people hoped that the royal family could come up with some solutions. Louis was stupid and said, "If there is no meat, why not eat bread?"

What's even more despicable is that the powerful official who helped him to wear the imperial robe got married. It was normal for the emperor to take out some treasures from the national treasury and give them to him at the engagement party.

The original owner also gave a gift, a red envelope, and inside the red envelope was a note that said "borrowed XX silver coins".

Yes, you read that right, it’s IOU!

It's "borrowing"! And it doesn't even require gold coins to settle!

Louis dunked a 6.

Whenever Grandet comes, he will praise you for being so hesitant.

Capitalists will think you are the devil.

“Damn it! How did the original owner last for 10 years before the country was destroyed? The Ense family must be very wealthy!”

But one thing is certain -

It is impossible for him to be an emperor, so he leaves the professional matters to his first wife.

Louis quickly decided on the policy of "protecting the top thigh and quickly moving into a life of lying down."

"Improving my strength has to be done slowly. First, let's see why my wife is so easily assassinated..."

The first thing he thought of was the "Tino Explosion" incident recorded in his diary.

This happened about half a year later. The Imperial Capital's National Waste Treatment Plant suddenly exploded. The flames that shot up into the sky blew the entire plant up into the sky. A large number of workers died on the spot, and a fire in the western part of the Imperial Capital continued.

Later, when Beatrice went to investigate, she realized that this was not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster.

The factory director is a corrupt official. In recent years, only half of the garbage disposal equipment that should have been upgraded has been replaced, and it can basically no longer meet the capital's growing demand for domestic garbage disposal.

This hanging man relies on the garbage dump to operate around the clock, and on weekdays he can barely allow the factory to process the garbage and maintain the surface cleanliness.

However, with the royal authorization, the White Tower Wizard has carried out many large-scale magic experiments in the past six months, generating a huge amount of magical waste.

These wastes are sent to a processing plant in batches, but the equipment at the plant is old and cannot complete the processing even if it runs continuously.

Seeing that he was about to be unable to contain the situation, he deceived his superiors and falsified information, and piled up the unseparated magical waste in the basement.

The reason why these wastes must be dealt with as soon as possible is because they pose considerable safety hazards.

This accumulation turned a small hidden danger into a big one, and eventually caused a huge explosion.

The treatment plant stopped working and a large amount of domestic waste could not be processed.

What's even more terrible is that the toxic smell after the elemental reaction filled half of the imperial capital and even penetrated into the ground, contaminating the groundwater and poisoning many residents.

You know, this is a fantasy world, and there is a profession like druid.

When this group of wandering nature conservationists heard about this, they gathered together in indignation and sneaked into the city of Tino to investigate and cause trouble.

There is no way Enser would allow these crazy environmentalists to interfere in his internal affairs.

As the conflict between the two sides intensified, the security in the imperial capital declined significantly.

This incident triggered a chain reaction of a series of events and became the fuse for the breach of the imperial capital's defenses.

"In other words, we have to solve the hidden danger of a big explosion?"

Thinking of this, Louis' eyes lit up.

There is a solution to this problem!
