1958

The more dangerous the place, the safer it is.

I don’t know who summed up the sentence, which profoundly analyzed people’s psychology. The Minister of War also knew this truth.

He had previously used some projects in his hands to establish a good relationship with the Minister of Construction.

I also got some information from the Minister of Construction.

The palace needs to be renovated every eight to ten years, and he has a copy of the palace construction drawings in his hand.

This drawing records the overall architectural structure of the palace, including some hidden spaces and some deep secret rooms.

Some are not built to hide anything, but simply serve as a building.

For example, the water-proof layer, the drainage system during heavy rains, and the huge partitions made for thermal insulation and water insulation!

Plus some abandoned secret rooms and hidden rooms.

These spaces must be inspected at regular intervals to avoid collapse.

Before the Penteo people landed, the Minister of War had figured out many secret spaces and hid everything in them in a very short time.

The royal family's treasures were not a small amount. Before the Pengeo people landed, it would be difficult for him to transport all those things out of the palace without being discovered, let alone hide them properly.

Hiding on the spot is the best option.

He also arranged some illusions to make people mistakenly think that he had transported things out. The commander-in-chief firmly believed in this and did not continue to thoroughly dig and search for the palace!

What the Minister of War wants to take away this time is some small parts, some wealth that was "scrounged" from all over the world when Gefra was in its heyday!

These include some jewelry with great political significance from small countries, such as the scepter of a certain pope and the crown of a certain king.

The special political value contained in these things not only allows them to be sold at a higher price, but also allows the Minister of War to obtain certain political support from them.

It has political significance and is inconspicuous. For some small countries, especially those who have been "robbed" and have to pay tribute, they will be willing to spend a lot of money to take back these precious things!

Even for this reason, he was willing to shelter the Minister of War for a short period of time so that he could have time to rest.

At dawn, the housekeeper returned to the manor by car. This time he did not take the secret passage, but took the car directly.

Because at this time, almost everyone was asleep. Even if someone saw him, they would not think of what he had done.

The behavior of the butler coming back from outside surprised the person responsible for watching, because he did not see the butler of the Minister of War leaving the manor.

But at this time, he actually came back from outside, which means that he used other methods to leave the manor!

This was a very important piece of news, and soon other members of the special operations team knew the news, and they began to check for possible secret passage exits around them.

The Minister of War's estate is covered in vegetation for a long distance, and there are only some buildings more than a kilometer away.

The scope of their search was limited to these houses and the surroundings of the manor.

This is a meticulous job.

The War Secretary stayed up all night and breathed a sigh of relief when he got the news.

The things he asked the butler to take out were probably worth several million to tens of millions of federal soles.

This money was enough for him to take his family and some subordinates to establish a foothold abroad.

The next step is to wait for the right time to leave.

He believed that as long as Pengeo's war continued to suffer setbacks, opportunities would soon come.

The Federation across the ocean was still a short time away from dawn.

Lynch has woken up and exercises every morning, time permitting.

Rich people's time allocation is interesting. Most wealthy people are committed to some level of exercise in the morning before work.

Just like adding more meat to breakfast, early morning exercise helps wake up the body.

As for the missing sleep, you can make up for it until noon or afternoon.

After working out in the gym until 6:15, Lynch returned to the bedroom and took a shower.

Before he could leave, a hot body hugged him from behind.

"You got up so early..."

There was a hint of laziness in her voice that she hadn't woken up. Last night was the most solid sleep Xenia had had in the past two years.

It may also be because I am tired, but more importantly, I feel at ease!

The fulfilling feeling of being filled with a sense of security is intoxicating. This is so rare for her who has been under double surveillance and has to take care of her niece and grandniece!

Lin Qi didn't move and let her hold him.

"What are you going to do with us?"

"Disposition is such an ugly word, it should be arrangement!"

Lynch corrected.

Under the shower, Xenia was awakened even if she was not fully awake.

Her cheek was pressed against Lynch's back, with a simple smile on her face, "Okay, then what are you going to do for us?"

Lynch still didn't move, "Let Feilin be my adopted daughter, so that you will be safe."

Genia, who was still enjoying the sweetness after getting up, immediately took two steps away from Lynch and looked at him in disbelief, "What?"

"Adopted daughter?"

"Are you crazy?"

"That's the Emperor of the Empire!"

In her letter to Lynch, she just said that she hoped that Lynch could help them leave Gafra, and then she also hoped that Lynch could help them find a place to live where there would be no danger and no control.

But she never thought about making the Queen the adopted daughter of Lynch, who is His Majesty the Emperor!

How could she become someone else's adopted daughter?

Lynch turned around and looked at Genia. He put his hands against his forehead and combed his hair back. The water in his hair was squeezed out and stuck tightly to his scalp, but it was quickly washed away by the water and foamed. .

He stood in the water drops and looked at Genia, "Feline is not safe. If you have watched the news, you will know what the next president of Marillo is still doing!"

Genia was a little hesitant, she seemed to have actually read this report!

After carefully recalling it for a while, she tried to say, "He studied in the Federation?"

Lynch nodded in agreement, "He seemed very free and happy."

"He received the best education and enjoyed the most comfortable treatment in the Federation. The Federation even promised to let him return to Marillo to take over his position as president after he turned twenty."

"That all seems fine, but he's not safe at all."

"Marillo has long been regarded as a future new territory by the Federation. This young, future president, as long as he is not careful, has revealed some ideas, independent ideas."

"He will soon die by suicide!"

"The same goes for Feline."

"The Federation's control of Gaevra cannot be separated from her, the last royal bloodline, but if she is just put back like this, it will be a huge loss to the Federation if she loses control!"

"An irreparable loss!"

"She must be controlled!"

"Rather than someone who could be her father and be her husband, and maybe control her and abuse her."

"On the contrary, it's easier to accept that she recognizes me as her adoptive father."

Lynch stretched out his hand to help Xenia smooth her hair that was messed up by the water, "After all, I am also an imperial noble, and I also have huge influence in the Federation."

"Even if she did something wrong, I won't hurt her."

"But if you choose someone else, I can't guarantee her safety, nor your safety!"

Genia's mind was a little confused. Lynch's words made her originally sunny mood turn gloomy in an instant.

She thought that everything would be over when she came to the Federation, but she didn't expect that this was just the beginning!

She couldn't accept it. She took a few steps back and forth in the bathroom, then held her head tightly, "I don't know, Lynch!"

"Can't we stay in the Federation?"

"We can give up the royal bloodline and let Gefra become a federal system, but why is it us?"

Lynch grabbed her arm with a little force, "Because you have royal blood flowing in your body, you are the most perfect puppets!"

"You have no choice!"

After Lin Qi finished speaking, he walked out of the bathroom, "I still have to go to work. Think about it for yourself. There is still a lot of time!"

Genia stayed in the bathroom for a long time before wiping off the water, putting on clothes and leaving.

When she saw Queen Feline, she greeted Xenia with a cheerful smile.

Damn it!

Everything about the Federation is so great!

She watched TV series until two o'clock in the evening and ate a lot of sweets and carbonated drinks.

This was something the chief steward did not allow her to eat before. She is the queen and needs to manage her image well.

No one is asking her to do that now, she can do whatever she wants.

Stay up late, eat sweets, and waste time!

Thinking of this, she smiled so hard that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear, but gradually, she discovered that something was not right with Xenia's situation.

She seemed to be deeply troubled by something.

"What happened?" Queen Feline walked to Xenia and hugged her arm, "Did you and Lynch quarrel?"

These were the only things she could think of, nothing else could make her act so unhappy!

Xenia shook her head. She looked up at Her Majesty the Queen and didn't know how to speak.

You can't tell her directly - "I found a father for you", right?

This is too...

But what Lynch said was not wrong at all.

Minister of War, Commander-in-Chief of Penteo, they didn't keep Queen Philine because she was cute.

Simply because she is young and of royal blood, so she is easy to control!

The way Xenia was hesitant to speak made Queen Feline quickly realize that what she could not say might have something to do with her.

This also made her expression become serious, "Is it related to me?"

"If so, please tell me I can handle any bad news right now!"

"If not, please tell me and I will share your troubles with you!"

"The only family I have in this world is you!"

Genia looked at such a sensible girl in front of her, feeling a little sad but also a little happy. She pursed her lips and said: "..."
