Chapter 2097 Selling a Wave (Still the Best Corn)

Esdeth's reaction was also quick. In fact, two days later, she rode the dangerous species back to the imperial capital.

The entire imperial capital seemed very peaceful, but most people couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief when they saw Esdeth come back. Anyway, this general is also well-known, and when she came back, most people were also relieved deep in their hearts. , Of course, there are more people waiting to see what the general will do next.

"Squeak——"

The door of the main hall opened slowly, and Estes walked into the main hall slowly. She has been here many times and is already familiar with it. Originally, at this time, the ministers should be here, while the emperor sat on the throne, and behind him was Minister Ornest.

But now, there is no one here.

No, there is one more person.

"You're a day later than I thought, Miss Estes."

"........."

Hearing this voice, Estes frowned, then she looked up, and saw a figure in a white robe sitting on the throne, watching her.

Seeing this figure, Estes immediately grabbed the hilt of the sword with his hand.

"Are you the thief who killed the emperor?!"

"That's right."

Fang Zheng, who was sitting on the throne, changed his posture and nodded.

"Actually, I have something to talk to you..."

"But I have nothing to talk to the thieves who disturbed the imperial capital and killed the emperor!"

As Esdeth's voice fell, endless cold air immediately spread out, and in the blink of an eye, the entire hall was frozen in ice. Then Esdeath suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed forward, and then saw the ice explode rapidly, instantly restraining Fangzheng, and then Esdece jumped up and stabbed at the figure sitting on the throne!

"Shua————!"

The sharp sword edge pierced through the throne and the ice, but the white robe that had been there had disappeared.

"It's really intense, but it's within my expectation."

Fang Zheng appeared behind Esdeth, shrugging his shoulders.

"But Miss Estes, I didn't come to fight you..."

Although Fangzheng spread his hands to express that he was not hostile, Esdeth just grinned and showed a ferocious smile, and then...

"Moko Potmo!"

With Esdeath's whisper, time stopped flowing for an instant, and then Esdeath clenched the long sword again, looking forward——then her eyes widened in surprise.

I saw that in this place where even time and space were frozen, the figure in the white robe just now had disappeared.

Is it hidden?

"I don't want to fight you, Miss Estes."

However, what surprised Esdesh even more was that the other party's voice came again at this moment. Obviously time has stopped and space has been frozen. Logically speaking, no one can escape this bondage except himself, but what Esdesi did not expect is that the opponent can still be free in his strongest trick. Move and talk!

"I just want to make a small deal with you."

"Let's hear it."

Facing Fangzheng's words, Esdeth was silent for a moment, then withdrew his strength. Immediately afterwards, Fangzheng was seen walking out of the shadow beside him leisurely again.

"It's very simple, this is just a small request, I hope you can rule this country as the emperor of this country."

"... What are you talking about in your sleep?"

Hearing Fangzheng's words, Estes finally showed a hint of surprise on his face, and she never thought that the other party would actually make such a request to herself. Afterwards, Estes seemed to think of something.

"As a wedding present, it's quite heavy."

"Uh... I'm very sorry, but I'm not actually interested in you."

Hearing Estes' answer, Fangzheng also silently wiped off the cold sweat. It seems that falling in love really changes a person. If it was the former Estes, she probably would never have thought of such a question.

"But I do intend to give it to you as a wedding present."

"………What's the meaning?"

"Miss Estes already has a lover, but unfortunately, your pursuit doesn't seem to have any effect."

"It seems that you know a lot..."

Hearing this, Estes frowned, and a cold killing intent flashed in his words, but Fang Zheng didn't care at all, and just continued talking.

"Miss Esther is a beauty regardless of her figure or appearance. If the other party is indifferent to such a passionate pursuit, either she has no feelings for Miss Esther, or she already has a lover of her own. Fortunately, that Mister is not yet in the latter category, so you, Miss Estes, still have a chance."

"But what does that have to do with what you said?"

"Miss Estes, you also pursued that gentleman before, but you were rejected. This is not surprising. Although you are a general, this status is only valid within the empire. As a Lugnica Of course, you don’t need to care about the thoughts of an imperial general and the ensuing influence.”

Having said this, Fangzheng also stopped, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"However, if you, Miss Estes, propose a relationship invitation as the emperor of the Northern Empire, then even if that gentleman is reluctant, he will not be able to refuse it as decisively as before. In any case, the Northern Empire is Biluge Nika is several times stronger, and that gentleman must be very clear about the consequences of fighting against the ruler of such a powerful empire."

"But that doesn't mean he's going to fall in love with me."

Hearing this, Estes' expression has loosened a bit, but she is obviously quite calm.

"Of course, the identity of the emperor is only a foundation, at least it can prevent that gentleman from rejecting your confession so easily, but then you two still need to communicate with each other, communicate with each other...here, I will give you a gift For the second gift."

"Is there any more?"

"That's right."

Fangzheng snapped his fingers, and then, a piece of paper flew out of his hand and slowly landed in front of Esdeath. Esdeath picked up the paper and glanced at it.

"this is?"

"When I was killing the emperor before, I once had a battle with the hunter troop. At that time, I found a very interesting person in the hunter troop...it was her, her name was Theresia Van Astor Rhea."

"... Astrea?"

Hearing this name, Estes immediately raised his head and looked at Fang Zheng, who also nodded.

"That's right, this is the person you like—the grandmother of Reinhardt Van Astrea."

"How did she appear in the hunter army?"

"I'm not very clear about this. My information shows that she was sent to Minister Ernest by Anning Road as a negotiation, and then introduced to join the hunter's army. But why she appeared here is hard to say. Oh, by the way, by the way, I will give you another piece of information. Reinhardt has always been full of guilt towards his grandmother, because when Theresia led a team to hunt down the white whale, the "Guard of the Juggernaut" on her body suddenly shifted. When it came to Reinhardt, and because of this, Thearesia, who lost her strength, died in battle. So Reinhardt always felt that he killed his grandmother..."

"Where is she now?"

"Sorry, this is beyond my ability."

Fangzheng shrugged.

"After the previous battle, she ran away directly, and I don't know where she went. But I believe that as long as you tell Reinhardt the news that Theresa once appeared in the imperial capital, then he will definitely come Find the trace of grandma, and at that time, the two of you will have a chance to enhance your relationship."

Having said this, Fangzheng sighed.

"Okay, Miss Estes, there's only so much I can do, so I wish you success in capturing Reinhardt's heart."

After saying this, Fangzheng bowed slightly, saluted Esdesh, and planned to leave.

However, at this time......

"What good does it do you?"

Estes' voice sounded again.

"You killed the emperor, the minister, and General Budd just to put me on the throne. So, if you didn't do it out of stupid and blind love, then what was it for?"

"Please allow me to correct one point, Miss Estes, the death of the emperor, ministers and General Budde is a given, not for you, but for this country. Minister Ornest caused a disaster to the court and should be executed. And the emperor I don’t care about this, and I have lost my responsibility as the emperor, and of course I have to be punished. General Bude did not protect the empire, but just sat by and ignored him. He was guilty of dereliction of duty and should be executed......"

While talking, Fangzheng chuckled.

"So in fact, whether you agree or not, they are all dead, and the reason why I choose you is because, in my opinion, Miss Estes has the qualifications to become a generation of empresses."

"...Aren't you going to become the emperor yourself?"

"I've already sat in this position until I feel like throwing up, and I'm not interested in it in a short time."

"It really surprised me. I thought you were with the Revolutionary Army."

"We have a certain degree of cooperative relationship, but it's limited to the lower classes. I don't like guys who betray their country and cede territory to gain power. If Miss Estes hangs those guys on the street lamp, then I'd love to go and enjoy the show."

"Interesting man."

Hearing Fangzheng's answer, Esdes showed a smile.

"Don't you consider staying and playing for me?"

"I'm sorry, what we protect is the free will of the people. We never have too close contacts with any person in power. Thank you Miss Estes for your recruitment, but please allow me to refuse."

"……………Ok."

Estes was silent for a moment, then waved his hand, and soon, the ice wall that originally blocked the hall melted quickly, and Fang Zheng also bowed, and then walked outside.

"One last question, your name?"

"We don't need names, nothing is true, everything is allowed. We walk in the dark and serve the light. We are just a group of... assassins."

As the voice fell, Fang Zheng's figure had completely disappeared at the entrance of the sunlit hall.
