Chapter 2131 Temporary Court Meeting
Hearing this almost crazy laughter, I felt a chill in my heart. Oops, could my father-in-law be crazy too?
When the wild laughter subsided, I asked cautiously: "Father-in-law, are you okay?"
"Me? It's okay! What's wrong?"
Listening to the Orc King speak clearly and in the same tone as usual, I finally felt relieved.
Subconsciously he breathed a sigh of relief: "It scared me. I thought you were laughing out of anger."
"Angry?" The Beastman King laughed and said, "I'm not angry, but happy. Not only does my son-in-law have unlimited potential, but he can also forge friendship with the powerful dragon clan. Isn't this a great thing? "
I quickly apologized and said, "Yes, yes, you are right."
"With the help of the Dragon Clan, even if the disaster really revives, we will be able to fight."
"Even though you said so."
In the middle of the sentence, I swallowed the second half of the sentence.
"Hmm? Xiaoyi, did you say something just now?" the Beastman King asked doubtfully.
"No, no." I corrected my tone and said, "My son-in-law wants to say that what my father-in-law said is absolutely true. As long as we have the help of the Dragon Clan, no matter how fierce the disaster is, we will have the confidence to fight it."
The Beastman King praised me a few words and then hung up the call.
Leaning on the workbench, I suddenly felt that all the strength in my body had been exhausted, and I collapsed on the ground helplessly, unwilling to move for a long time.
After an unknown amount of time, two staff members who had finished eating went upstairs side by side. They happened to see me who was weak. They couldn't help but exclaimed in unison. They rushed forward and carefully helped me up. One of them helped me to a chair. On the way, another person quickly poured me a glass of water and brought it to me respectfully.
He took the water glass, thanked him, drank it all, then sighed softly, gave them a forced smile, stood up, and left.
On the way, I tried hard to adjust my mentality, and finally managed a smile that looked very natural before entering the door.
When we got home, everyone had already had dinner. There was only one plate and a pair of chopsticks left on the table. On the plate, there was a half-roasted white fish.
No need to ask, I only need to look around for a week to know who stole the half of the white fish.
Because the corner of a certain little loli's mouth was stained with grilled white fish sauce.
I took out my handkerchief and wiped the sauce from the corner of little Remi's mouth. I couldn't help but ate the half-white fish cleanly. The originally gloomy mood was completely dissipated by this little prank.
After eating the white fish, I lay down on the sofa, took a long breath, and exhaled all the turbid air in my chest. I felt tired all over, and soon I couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep.
When he opened his eyes again, it was already the next morning. The landlady, Florence and others had already prepared food and were waiting for the plates to be served.
I stretched my waist and complained to the landlady: "Why didn't you wake me up?"
The proprietress put the plate on the table, wiped the back of her hands with a scarf, and said with a smile: "It's not that I didn't scream, it's that I didn't wake up after I screamed. You slept like a little dead pig."
Little Remi, who was having a great time playing with Xiao Zhi in the yard, suddenly poked her little head in, widened her starry eyes, and said excitedly: "I want to eat pork chops!"
"We don't have enough during the day, let's wait until the evening." The landlady responded fondly and continued her work.
"Uh-huh, the boss lady said I'm a little dead pig, and you just want to eat pork chops. Are you deliberately trying to get in trouble with me, huh?"
I pretended to be angry, pinched both sides of little Remi's face, and pulled gently. Little Remi's original oval face instantly turned into a pancake face.
Not only did the little loli not resist, but she kept giggling.
"You bullied her again," Phoenix muttered, and rescued little Remi from my 'claws' and held her in her arms.
Little Remi arched in Phoenix's arms with pleasure, and the soft hill just served as a pillow.
I was envious.
After breakfast, before I could even put my Odachi on my back, I was summoned by the Fairy Queen.
After hurriedly entering the palace, I found that all the noble ministers were already in place. On the throne, the Fairy Queen looked serious, and the Fairy Queen also lowered her head in silence, contemplating.
I felt that the atmosphere was not right, but I didn't feel comfortable asking, so I hurried to my seat and looked at Elder Mai Sonoda opposite me from a distance, hoping that she could give me some hints.
However, Elder Mai Sonoda also looked confused and shook his head at me.
It seems that this is a temporary emergency summons. If I predict correctly, it must be related to Carter Horton.
After standing for more than ten minutes, the Fairy Queen remained silent. I looked over with a puzzled face and found that the Fairy Queen was still looking at the palace gate. Are there any courtiers who have not come?
Who is it? He has such a great power that even the Fairy Queen is looking forward to it. Huh? There is a chair on the lower left side of the throne. Oh my god, I actually forgot that the old man is the elder of Keqing!
Thinking of this, I suddenly became excited, hurriedly walked out of the station, and hurried towards the palace gate. I walked fast all the way, and finally met Taylor halfway, who was leisurely walking towards the palace.
After seeing Taylor, my high-spirited heart was finally relieved. Instead of the waiter, I obediently supported the old man and walked towards the palace like a leisurely stroll.
The old man looked at me with a smile and joked: "Why, you bastard, are you dissatisfied with the old man for forgetting me at home?"
"How dare I!" I said with a flattering look on my face, "It's not because something happened suddenly, I was too impatient, and I accidentally forgot about it. You sir, have a lot of money, so don't argue with me." ha."
The old man chuckled and asked again: "Bastard, let me ask you, do you know the topic of today's court discussion?"
I shook my head: "I don't know."
"You're worthless," the old man scolded with a smile, "You ran into the palace in a hurry and ran back in a hurry. During this time, wouldn't you ask someone to ask?"
"What are you asking? There's no chance at all!" I said helplessly: "The entire imperial court is as quiet as if there is no one around. I don't even dare to breathe loudly. If I want to speak now, they have to target me!"
"Is it so quiet?" The old man nodded to himself: "If it's so quiet, it must be something big. By the way, you bastard, let me ask you, has Carter Horton done anything recently?"
"have."
I told him about Carter Horton's assignment of an excavation team to start work in the Gobi.
The old man's face slightly condensed and he hummed: "It seems that today's court discussion is likely to be related to this matter. You might as well think about countermeasures and other things in advance so that you can deal with it in court."
It's Taylor's perfunctory behavior, and he doesn't take the court discussion seriously at all.
I supported the old man all the way and walked for about twenty minutes before entering the palace.
As soon as we entered the palace, I immediately felt countless angry eyes piercing the two of us. I felt slightly uncomfortable, but the old man didn't take it seriously at all.
