Chapter 1565 The Vain Queen

The Elf Queen's eyes flickered and she glanced at me slightly.

I remained expressionless, silent, and drank from my cup.

The Queen pondered for a moment and said, "This is indeed the case."

Master Dewey chuckled and said, "I wonder if Her Majesty the Queen is interested in doing business?"

"Appreciate further details."

Master Dewey came closer and whispered: "There are many trees in the Elf Forest, and there are several kinds of trees that can be used for great purposes. They are left alone anyway. Why not sell them to me, which can also add some profits to Moonlight City. Besides, the Elf Forest also has bonuses from the gods, even if you cut it into wooden piles, new trees will still grow within a few days. How about such a profitable business without losing money?"

After hearing this, the Elf Queen thought for a moment and said: "This matter is of great concern. I cannot make the decision alone. Please wait until I return to the country and consult with Her Majesty the Elf Queen before I can give an answer."

"That's fine," Master Dewey said: "The Elf Forest is the foundation of Moonlight City after all, so it's understandable."

The Elf Queen thanked her, then rolled her eyes and said in a heavy tone: "A few days ago, I heard Elder Xiao Yi said that several scientific researchers from Fort Vicky were killed in the island portal. Hey, I heard this news. At that time, I couldn't help but feel sad for a while, they are all the pillars of the country!"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere changed instantly.

The Goblin King was silent for a moment and said calmly: "We, Fort Vicky, have always been based on scientific research, and there are more than hundreds of heroes and martyrs who have sacrificed their lives for this. It is precisely because of these people that we, Fort Vicky, have achieved today's glory and achievements. "

After a pause, the Goblin King raised the wine glass in his hand and solemnly said: "Here's to the heroes and martyrs."

"Honor the heroes and martyrs."

I also picked up the wine glass, echoed with the others, and then drank it all in one gulp.

The originally heavy atmosphere finally relaxed a little after a cup.

The Elf Queen added: "I heard that there is a deep sea area opposite the portal. I wonder if your country is now preparing to explore the sea again?"

The Goblin King pondered for a moment and said: "This scientific research matter has been approved by Master Dewey. If you have any questions, you can tell him directly."

The Elf Queen turned her attention to Master Dewey.

Master Dewey held the wine glass and said slowly: "We are 90% ready and still owe 10%. However, if Her Majesty the Queen is curious, you can come to the test site tomorrow to watch."

The Elf Queen nodded and said: "I've been fine in the past few days, but I don't know what time is convenient for you, Master?"

"Any time," Master Dewey said leisurely.

"That's good," the Elf Queen said, "Tomorrow at nine o'clock, I will come to the palace to find you on time."

"Yes," Master Dewey said calmly, "I will be waiting for Her Majesty the Queen to arrive."

It was late at night when the banquet was over.

When I returned to the villa and was about to rest, I found the Elf Queen sitting quietly on the sofa, staring at me intently.

"What's wrong, Your Majesty the Queen?" I asked with a smile, and walked to the opposite side of her and sat down.

The Elf Queen's face was as dark as water, and she said calmly: "Did you and Master Dewey talk about the Elf Forest?"

"The Forest of Elves?" I asked in confusion: "What are you referring to?"

"It's about the rapid growth of trees in the Elf Forest." The Elf Queen leaned back slightly, leaning her neck and waist against the backrest, and said lazily: "You don't have to worry, I was just asking casually about the growth rate of the trees in the Elf Forest. The anomaly is not a secret. Master Dewey is your adoptive father, so it doesn’t matter if you tell him. I just want to verify it, so I have a good idea."

I chuckled lightly and said: "My Queen, you are joking. How could I tell the secrets of one country to important officials of another country? Even as a father and son, I will not talk to others casually. After all, no matter how close the relationship between the two countries is, We are still two countries, and I can still distinguish this position clearly."

The Elf Queen slowly lowered her head, her eyes were level with mine. She stared at me quietly, her beautiful eyes full of deep thought and exploration, as if she wanted to understand my brain, my thoughts, and my worries. through.

I smiled and looked at her calmly, not afraid of her gaze like a searchlight.

After all, if you don’t do anything wrong in your life, you won’t be surprised if someone knocks on the door in the middle of the night.

I really didn’t tell Master Dewey about the Elf Forest, so naturally I wasn’t afraid that she would doubt me. Furthermore, the emperor’s family was the most ruthless. In many emperor’s families, even between father and son, there were still many suspicions. What’s more, outsider?

After a while, the Elf Queen felt relieved. She breathed softly and said, "It seems it's really not you. I'm very happy."

"Haha" I chuckled and said: "Your Majesty, you are worrying too much. I have always had a clear stand. I say what should be said and what should not be said. Regardless of whether it is confidential or not, as long as I have not obtained permission, I will definitely not do it." I will reveal even half a word, so please rest assured.”

The Elf Queen nodded in agreement.

I continued: "But has Her Majesty the Queen ever thought that the reason why Master Dewey mentioned the word 'hear' is because Master Dewey's intelligence agency actually investigated the matter clearly and went back to talk to Master about it?" "

"This" the Elf Queen thought for a moment and said: "It is not impossible. Master Dewey has a huge network of people and is deeply involved in various countries. His intelligence agencies may not be inferior to the intelligence agencies of various countries. In this way, if you want to find out what happened in the Elf Forest, The situation is also very easy.”

"If this is the case, Master Dewey must be well aware of the non-confidential matters in Moonlight City." I pinched my chin and said, "Then, Your Majesty, what do you think about the business matter that Master Dewey mentioned?" ?”

"Didn't we say at the banquet?" the Queen said, "We will make plans after consulting with the Fairy Queen."

"In that case, why doesn't the Queen inform the Fairy Queen of this matter in advance?" I said calmly: "This will also allow the Queen to prepare in advance."

"How do you want me to tell her?" The Elf Queen said with a half-smile: "Send the letter, or through the communication crystal in the adventurer base?"

I looked at her expression and said, "Your Majesty, are you unwilling?"

"It's not that I'm unwilling," the Elf Queen said, "It's just that for this kind of thing, it would be better to wait until I go back and talk to grandma in person."

After hearing this, I sighed softly and said slowly: "One moment is the fairy queen, and the other is grandma. You don't like to listen to my advice and want to exclude me as an outsider."

"How can I not!" the Elf Queen retorted, but her slightly red cheeks confirmed this.

"The reason why I said those words to you seems to be forceful, but in fact, as an elder, I persuade you to do something I think you should do." I said calmly: "As the emperor of a country, why do you always Do you take face and vanity so seriously? Now is the time when you are about to ask the Fairy Queen for advice. If you can tell her many things in advance, it is best to tell her in advance, even if you will be called you after returning home. It's better to take the Fairy Queen's lead and act accordingly than to dig a well when thirsty without warning."
