A look of grievance immediately appeared on Bi's charming face: "I came back to see you because I wanted to." She leaned over softly: "I haven't scared you these past few days, have I?"

Viscount Mandheling was agitated and quickly avoided: "You... don't come here! I won't be deceived by you again! They said that you are a spy from the Demon Realm! You secretly sneaked into East to plot evil!"

Popi narrowed her eyes when she heard this, sat on the edge of the bed, and stretched her waist lazily: "How heartless! Our relationship is so close, and you actually alienated me because of a few words from others." She said in a resentful way Looking at Viscount Mandheling, it didn't take long for the latter to soften his heart, and the sword he was holding tightly in his hand slowly let go.

Popi smiled slightly when she saw this: "No matter what others say, my relationship with you is different, and I will never be detrimental to you. Think about it, we have been together for so long, and I have done something to you Is there any harm done?”

Viscount Mandheling looked back on the past and felt that this seemed to be the case. Every time he had troubles, she would analyze and find solutions for him, and the final result was not bad. At least the Mandheling family's reputation had recovered a lot in this year, and he almost climbed to a higher level. Location. Could it be that the spies in the Demon Realm are actually human beings and can have true feelings

However, he still did not take it lightly: "Did you escape? The whole city is looking for you now. How dare you run back so boldly? If you are caught here, I won't be able to clear your suspicions!"

But Popi said nonchalantly: "He can't catch me, so don't worry, I wasn't discovered when I came."

"Really?" Viscount Twining was always a little uneasy, "Then what are you doing here? Do you want me to help you get out of the city?"

"I will leave the city by myself, I don't need your help." Popi pulled him to sit down and asked with a smile, "Were you unable to sleep just now? Is there anything bothering you?"

"No, it's just some heads;."

"Really? Don't lie to me..." Po leaned close to his ear. asked softly. "Are you worried about tomorrow?"

1st Viscount Mandheling. He quickly threw her aside. Jumped three meters away: "You, you, you...how did you know?!"

Poppy played with her veil carelessly: "Why don't you go to tonight's gathering? Could it be that...you want to disobey Her Majesty the Queen's order?"

Viscount Mandheling felt a burst of thunder in his head. Somewhat out of breath: "You...are you and the queen colluding?!"

Popi chuckled: "Don't say it so harshly. It's just using each other. We are a cooperative relationship." She flicked her wrist. He hung up Viscount Mandheling's arm lightly. Pulling him over: "Tell me. Why don't you go tonight?"

Viscount Mandheling looked at the gauze tightly wrapped around his arm in horror. He couldn't believe that this was the weapon that made him unable to resist. Look at Poppy's eyes. Already with strong fear: "I... I just have a headache. I feel uncomfortable. That's why I didn't go..." While speaking, he avoided Poppy's gaze.

"Then... you will do what the queen wants tomorrow, right?" Poppy pulled out a scroll, "Everyone present has answered their names, can you answer one too?"

"This..." Viscount Mandheling stared at the small blank space where the scroll was unfolded, his eyes flickering, and he delayed taking the pen from Poppy's hand.

Poppy put away the smile on her face, put the scroll and pen aside, and asked in a deep voice: "You regret it, right? Don't forget, you are originally from the queen's side!"

"I'm not!" Viscount Mandheling retorted, "I originally thought that the second prince would become the new crown prince, so I got close to them. Now that the king has clearly not planned to change the crown prince, why should I cater to the queen's wishes and make myself the king's enemy?!"

Bi sneered: "Aren't you the king's enemy now? Don't forget, the reason why your family has declined to this point is entirely the fault of Alfred III! If you don't obey the queen, you and your family will not be given anything. Come for any good! If the Queen fails, you will be at the mercy of Valfred III!"

Viscount Mandheling shuddered, thinking of the notebook that the king took out, and the stack of evidence that could knock his entire family into dust. Of course he felt unwilling to do so, but what could he do? It was impossible for the queen to succeed. Although he had not seen it with his own eyes, he believed that there were many nobles in the same situation as him.

He thought for a while and said: "Nothing will happen to our family. The king is old, and the eldest prince will succeed to the throne in a few years.

My youngest son Alex once rescued him and he will not be a disservice to our family~. "

Poppy snorted coldly: "Who said Hyatt will definitely become the new king? Maybe he will be the second prince! By then, what will happen to you if you don't obey the queen's orders?"

"Then I won't worry anymore." Mandheling straightened his waist, "I have reconciled with Alben of the Hedda family. At the same time, under the introduction of others, I had an afternoon drink with Count Cardo. Tea. Alex has a very good relationship with his niece Ming Na, and his daughter is the future second prince and concubine. We may become in-laws in the future. What role can the queen alone play? "

Popi narrowed her eyes again: "Xiao...Mingna from the Ka family? Didn't you dislike her as an illegitimate daughter before?"

"It's different now. Princess Sarah wants to marry Jia, and there is no hope for Alex. Although Mingna has a poor background, she is the only daughter of Viscount Mayton! She will inherit her father's territory in the future! Daughters of other noble nobles may The dowry is richer, but no matter how rich the dowry is, how can it be compared to a territory?" Viscount Mandheling felt excited just thinking about it. "When Alex comes back, I will ask him to come forward and talk to Viscount Mayton about it. Leave the business road to Maicheng to us, we have more experience in this kind of thing!"

Poppy threw cold water at him: "What's the use of making more money? Do you think no one really knows what you have done? The king will let you go so easily?"

Viscount Mandheling froze: "What... do you mean?!" Did even she know about the notebook

"

Reminding you. "A smile appeared on Poppy's face again, "If the queen
