Chapter 128 The Canary in the Cage Selection and Arrangement
Reinas also felt that the nobles of the kingdom were a little stupid. This difference was even more obvious when compared with the current policies of the empire.
But about his choice to leave the empire.
Renas did not have any regrets, especially as a knight of the man in front of her.
Experienced the Great Swamp.
Reinas was well aware of how powerful this gentle-looking man in front of her was. He was able to summon a fourth-tier angel, and his strength had reached that of an adamantine-level adventurer.
The depths of the Great Swamp are already extremely dangerous, and yet the adult actually stayed alone in the dense forest deeper inside for more than two days, and when he returned, he did not have a single injury on his body.
This is something that even an entire team of elite steel-level adventurers cannot do!
And help yourself remove the curse...
No! She was now able to freely control the curse power in her body, which was not to lift the curse at all.
Lenas didn't know how Tang Zheng did it, and she would not ask about such a secret.
Powerful! Mysterious! As the Lord's knight, this is her honor.
"Sir, what should we do next?" Renas looked at Tang Zheng with her clear deep blue eyes shining brightly.
“It’s a beautiful outfit.”
Tang Zheng took a look at Renas's capable and aristocratic outfit and praised her: "Since you just came back from the banquet, I think you have had some contact with the nobles of the kingdom."
"Tell me about your senses."
Imina, who was sitting at the table at the back with her legs crossed, chewed her food a little louder.
Reinas's face became serious. She knew very well that what the Lord asked her to say was not his evaluation of this group of nobles.
He pondered for a moment.
"I attended several small parties given in honor of the Countess's birthday."
"Based on the current situation, the aristocracy of the entire kingdom is divided into two factions. One is the pro-king faction, and the other is the aristocracy that focuses on its own interests."
"The aristocratic faction has the greatest influence, led by the legitimate first prince Pablo. I feel that given the first prince's situation, he may not be able to control the aristocratic faction once he ascends the throne."
Renas reported the intelligence she had observed and analyzed in detail. She paused for a moment and then continued, "According to rumors, the second prince Senak has great talent, but he has no noble support. If you want to use him as a starting point, the second prince may be a good choice."
She was neither a vase nor a fool with only military power, so she could naturally guess a little bit about her master's purpose.
"You are worthy of it, Lenas." Tang Zheng said in admiration.
In such a short time, Reinas has obtained so much useful information. As expected, only the nobles understand the nobles better.
"The Second Prince has no support?"
Tang Zheng chuckled, "That's not necessarily true. Don't you think it's abnormal to be able to hear rumors about the Second Prince's talent in such a short time?"
Lenas's delicate face paused, then she reacted immediately.
"You missed one person." Tang Zheng said.
Reinas looked confused. Currently, apart from the first prince and the second prince, there should be no other princes with the right of inheritance in the entire kingdom.
"Princess...Princess Lana?" Renas said in a low voice.
Whether it is an empire or a kingdom, the princess has no inheritance rights and is not worth investing in.
suddenly.
"Wait a moment, sir." Renas' eyes flashed, as if she understood something, and she turned and left quickly.
After a while.
Lenas returned again with an invitation in her hand, and handed it to Tang Zhengdao respectfully: "This is one of the invitations sent to me on the second day of living in the Noble Pavilion. It's an invitation from Princess Lana."
"I didn't take it seriously. Princess Lana never sent me another invitation after that."
I picked up the invitation and took a look at it. It looked a bit ordinary and even inconspicuous.
A smile appeared on Tang Zheng's face.
"A canary trapped in a cage."
“No matter how smart you are, as long as you can’t break free from the cage, you are only worth being admired.”
Tang Zheng took his eyes off the invitation and looked up at Lenase: "What would happen if you were such a canary?"
For a moment, Lenas was unable to answer.
Suddenly, a cold voice sounded from behind.
"Either I struggle desperately to escape from the cage, or I would rather starve to death." Imina wiped the pastry crumbs from the corners of her rosy lips and spoke lightly.
Tang Zheng glanced at Yimina with a smile.
Princess Lana is actually a very complicated character, and we cannot think about her in simple terms of good and evil or morality.
For all the proposals she put forward, she did not care whether they were adopted or not. Instead, she wanted to use the empire's spies to pass these proposals to the Blood Emperor.
No normal person would do such a thing that is completely harmful to others and not beneficial to oneself. Lana may do this simply because she is bored, or she may want to prove her own worth.
Just like Clem was a loyal dog when he was a slave, the look he gave Lana made him feel satisfied and comforted.
so.
In Tang Zheng's opinion, the key point of Lana's twisted character lies in "self-identity" and "value"! "The first prince has dignity and status, but he is a fool."
"The Second Prince is smart and does have the talent to be a king, but that's all."
Tang Zheng handed the invitation back to Lenas and said seriously: "You can think of this woman as the female Jiljikfu."
Lenas' eyes widened and she looked at Tang Zheng in disbelief.
The Blood Emperor Gilgekov was definitely the most remarkable emperor in the history of the entire empire. Even the corrupt and incompetent nobles had to admit this.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
And the adults actually gave such a high evaluation to Princess Lana!
"After you finish fighting with Gazef, go meet Princess Lana and join the other side."
Tang Zheng put away his smile, his eyes became deep, "There are many things we don't have to plan, this woman will do it for us."
"Once the obstructed gem is free of obstacles, it will release its own brilliance."
"Yes, sir." Although Renas was still a little confused, she did not raise any questions and spoke seriously.
"This woman is too smart, so you don't need to hide many things. Just treat her as a smart canary."
"In the battle with Gazef, be careful of his ultimate move, 'Four Light Slashes'. If his strength increases again during this period, it may evolve into 'Six Light Slashes'."
Tang Zheng glanced at Yimina beside him and chuckled, "I won't be staying in the kingdom for a long time. If there's anything, you two can cooperate with me."
"Hello."
Imina glared with her amber eyes, and a fierce look immediately appeared on her cold face. She looked at Tang Zheng: "Don't say that I am the same as your men."
"So far, where is my reward? And I have no ability to help this noble lady."
Tang Zheng stood up and said casually: "It will be available soon. The reward will be enough to satisfy you."
…
night.
A small hotel located in the outer area of the royal capital.
One after another, figures wearing black tights emerged from the night and approached the small hotel silently.
"That half-elf is here, isn't he?"
"Yes, the other party has changed three locations. Our people saw that they were staying in this small hotel."
"Be careful, this half-elf is quite powerful."
"Half-elf? This is a very rare species. If sold as a slave, it will definitely fetch more than 1,000 gold coins. I just wonder what it tastes like?"
"Hehe, I really want to taste it."
"Don't dream. Master Qiansha has instructed that we capture him alive."
Several assassins communicated in low voices, but their actions did not pause at all, and they approached the small hotel quickly and silently.
However! Just as they were about to approach the inn, the door that was originally closed suddenly opened.
Imina walked out of the hotel with an expressionless face, looking coldly at the assassins hiding in the darkness.
“Discovered!”
The expressions of several assassins changed.
"Now that we have discovered it, let's attack with force." An assassin said coldly.
Fortunately, the location here is remote, so even if there is any noise, it will not be discovered immediately.
"As prey, you seem to have mistaken your identities." A calm voice came from behind the assassins.
The bodies of several people stiffened.
Tang Zheng was not wearing a conspicuous priest robe at this moment, but had changed into a black robe and was covered in a hood.
