Chapter 2707 Grievance

Even though you are the supreme ruler of Dasai City, you also understand the preciousness of golden honey and the difficulty of golden bees.

So when I mentioned golden honey, the first reaction of both of them was to freeze on the spot.

After a moment of silence, the orc queen took a quick breath and said with a tone of unconcealed joy: "Okay, okay, my child, you are considerate, and I am here to express my gratitude to you."

Immediately afterwards, the Orc King came to his senses. He was not as expressive as the Orc Queen, and he just kept laughing.

"You are too outspoken," I said respectfully, "This is my way of honoring my elders. As long as my elders are satisfied, I will be satisfied."

"Satisfied, of course satisfied," the Beastman King said with a hearty laugh, slapping his thigh.

Afterwards, we chatted about home affairs and said some polite words.

Then, the Orc Queen took Cagalli to have a private conversation between mother and daughter. The Orc King and I were the only two people left in the side garden.

The Beastman King sipped tea slowly, with no gloom in his expression. He was as free and easy as an octogenarian old man enjoying life.

Relatively silent for a moment, seeing that he still had no intention of speaking, he came closer and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, are you okay?"

The Beastman King leaned back lazily on the wicker chair and breathed out an imperceptible 'hmm'.

The atmosphere fell into silence again.

Awkward.

After holding it in for a while, I spoke again and asked, "Your Majesty, are you really okay?"

The Beastman King's big eyes turned to me, looked at me for a while, and said lazily: "If you have anything to say, just say it."

"Hey" I responded and lowered my voice: "The old Duke took your position. I was worried that you wouldn't be willing to ask."

"I'm not willing to give in?" The Beastman King sneered and said disdainfully: "Is there anything I can't be willing to give in to?"

After frowning and thinking for a while, I asked cautiously: "Aren't you afraid that the old Duke will replace you?"

"Replace me?" The Beastman King smiled and shook his head: "It's not that I underestimate him. Even if he and his son both occupy this position, they still cannot replace the Fergus family's position in Dashai City, unless he can unify the continent. , to accomplish the same great feats as the fairies did back then.”

I have nothing more to say.

It can be seen that the Beastman King is very confident, and not only is he confident, he also has a high sense of family glory.

He believed that the Fergus family's status in Dashai City would not be replaced, because the Fergus family was the sky and the sun of Dashay City!

And that's exactly what happened.

Since the old Duke carefully planned the seizure of power, most of the policies he promulgated have not been effectively implemented. Most of the implemented policies are half implemented and half shelved.

This troubled him very much.

But that's not all the difficulty.

What made the old Duke scratch his head the most was that almost all the major forces in Dashai City did not listen to his orders.

You have military power, and you have even integrated quite a few underground forces in Dashai City, but so what?

Although the army is under his command, commanders at all levels also have their own ideas and judgments. When facing the life and death of Dashai City, they can show absolute obedience and die bravely without hesitation, but when facing their own people, Sometimes, their performance will be unsatisfactory, and they may even disobey orders.

However, you can't do anything with them, because they are controlled and driven by the old Duke only in name. In fact, their real leader is the Orc King.

The military cannot target internal forces. Although underground forces can cause troubles to the major forces to a certain extent, most of these troubles are insignificant and cannot arouse the attention of the major forces.

Of course, if the old Duke is determined to conquer all the major forces, there is no way out.

He could take advantage of the families of the major forces when they were traveling, kidnap them, and threaten the family heads.

But the problem is that the old Duke does not dare to do this.

Once he does this, it means completely breaking his skin and becoming an enemy of all the royal nobles in Dashai City. Not to mention him who has not yet stabilized his political power. Even the orc king cannot bear it.

So despite the fact that the old Duke seemed to be the regent with great glory now, he was feeling bitter. Who would he go to talk to?

After chatting for a long time, it was time for the meal.

The Beastman King, the Beastman Queen, and Cagalli and I sat around the table without distinction of superiority. After the dishes were served, we started to feast.

During this period, the Orc King frequently raised his glass, and I frequently raised my glass in response.

This drink was so refreshing that the Orc King fell unconscious after being drunk, and was helped into the room by the waiter. During this process, he kept talking drunkenly and nonsense.

Fortunately, I am completely immune to alcohol, so I won't lose my temper.

After dinner, I followed the orc queen and Cagalli to the living room and lounge.

There were many exquisite desserts on the table, as well as four cups of hot black tea.

The Orc Queen and Cagalli sat side by side, and I sat on the sofa opposite them.

After tasting the tea for a while, the orc queen spoke first: "Thank you for your hard work, child."

I was confused: Hard work?

The orc queen sighed: "Since my husband was deprived of power, he spends his days drinking tea, admiring flowers, and chatting to get by. He seems to have accepted his fate, but in fact he is miserable inside. However, he has never said it out loud for fear of making me sad."

As she spoke, the orc queen couldn't help but her eyes turned red and she sobbed.

Cagalli looked distressed and tried to comfort her mother many times, but when the words came to her lips, she could not speak.

"Her Majesty the Queen, you don't have to be so sad," I comforted her, "Your Majesty actually knew it, but he just didn't turn around for a while and acted as if he was depressed."

"Of course, your Majesty may have a deeper meaning in doing this." I blinked and whispered, "Maybe your Majesty just wants to put on a show for the old Duke, so that he can relax his vigilance."

The orc queen remained calm, nodded slightly, and said, "I have thought of this too, but whether he is really sad or really acting, as a wife, seeing her husband's will become more and more depressed every day, she feels uncomfortable. I just want to find someone to talk to my heart."

At this point, the queen couldn't talk any more, so she wiped her tears with a gauze, changed several gauze scarves in succession, and finally stopped her tears.

Cagalli felt uncomfortable, so she also picked up the silk handkerchief and wiped the orc queen's cheek.

After feeling sad for about a quarter of an hour, the orc queen took a deep breath and slowly leaned back on the sofa.

The previous feeling of sadness was swept away, replaced by the queen's unique graceful temperament.

"Xiao Yi, I heard from Cagalli that you accidentally obtained a golden bee colony?"

"Well, more or less." I nodded: "Actually, the first one to discover it was not me, but the King of the Forest."

"Is it that exaggeratedly big bear?" the orc queen asked.
