Chen Rui looked at the graceful figure going away, and said with emotion: "This woman is not simple."
"Of course it's not easy," Zhuoqie said, "In the past few days, she has almost figured out the details of Chiyou's territory. Originally, I wanted to cover up this matter, but she just cited a few detailed figures. , I have nothing to say. When it comes to strength, this woman is slightly inferior to me, but when it comes to scheming, I am afraid that there are few in the entire empire who can stand by her shoulders, especially with vicious and vicious methods. Flowers live up to their name."
"I brought the first phase of rebates this time. Our cooperation has already had a good start, but it's a pity that the plan can't keep up with the changes." Chen Rui nodded empathetically: "My lord, you should understand that this matter … I didn’t have much choice.”
"I understand, actually... I don't have either," Zhuoqie sighed, "Your Excellency Charles is resolute and decisive, and keeps his promises with integrity. Although the contact and cooperation time is not long, he has left a very good and deep impression on me. In front of the Regent, I have made a guarantee for you, and I hope that you will properly consider the old friends of Chiyou Territory in your future plans."
Once Prince Obsidian really approves of this plan, he will definitely swallow the biggest part of the benefits. Most of the continuous wealth will flow into Obsidian's pocket by then, and what will be left for Chiyou's territory is probably only a few leftovers—as As Isabella said, the cooperation conditions that a territory can provide cannot be compared with that of an empire.
"Don't worry, I will definitely consider it. Don't forget, we have a corresponding equal contract. In addition to the rebates brought today, I can guarantee that the amount promised in advance will appear in front of the adults. .As for my younger brother... I will leave it to Mr. Zhuoqie to take care of him. He is currently only one step away from the holy level. I hope the Lord can give him some enlightenment. If Samuel can really break through to the holy level, then as a thank you, I'll be listing additional items to work individually with adults."
Zhuoqie's eyes lit up, and he nodded. Chen Rui secretly laughed in his heart. With this "promise", Zhuoqie might not worship Samuel as a bodhisattva. For Samuel himself, it will also be an important opportunity to reach the holy level.
Chen Rui thought about it, and added another sentence: "I don't know why, I have a hunch that this trip to the capital will not be easy. I wonder if the lord has any good suggestions?"
Sure enough, Zhuoqie didn't hide anything, and introduced the situation of the imperial capital. The imperial capital has a large number of families with a long history and deep-rooted power. Even the regent, Hei Yao, has to be a bit scrupulous. Prince Obsidian has two cronies, one is Isabella, who controls the finances, and the other is Rommel, who is currently the Minister of Military Affairs. The military of the Demon Empire is organized by the traditional three generals, the first general is George. Wells, currently stationed in the Northeast Warlock Fortress, the second general Doron. Russ commanded the Guards and the most elite Red Demon Legion, the third general Geraint. Bryan, stationed in the Northwest Tekura Fortress.
Chen Rui had met Duolun's son Sergey, and he had coveted Athena, and was designed by Chen Rui to have a relationship with Legu, the Minister of Finance of the imperial capital. Caron's son Allen killed each other, making General Duolun and Le Gu enemies. Sergey was relieved of his official position in the Red Demon Legion, and left the imperial capital to go to Fortress Tekura to follow Geraint to guard the border. A distribution, mainly to appease the anger of the Caron family.
In addition, there are two court guests with unfathomable strength, one is called Krobelus, and the other is a human being like "Charles", named Nero.
Even Zhuoqie knew very little about these two people, but Zhuoqie emphasized one point: if the plan is to be approved and approved by Prince Obsidian, the most important thing is to pass Isabel who controls the empire's finances. Pull this off.
Chen Rui frowned. This woman's mentality is still higher than that of Sapulina. Judging from the attitude she showed earlier, this matter must be difficult.
Zhuoqie even implicitly stated that although this poisonous flower in the imperial capital has a wide range of contacts, it is said that no man can really conquer her so far. If "Charles" can work hard in this area, it may be able to receive miraculous results.
Beauty trap? Chen Rui smiled wryly and shook his head, he didn't have this ability yet, and Isabella was probably still in Azgalo's group. From the perspective of strength alone, she possesses the power of a demon emperor, and the God-eating mask is not suitable for use. It seems that she has to find another way.
The next day, Chen Rui followed Isabella on the carriage to the imperial capital.
Along the way, Isabella didn't ask about Chen Rui's plan or the Camplot family, or even kept silent about it, but only asked some irrelevant things like the regional customs of the human world.
Chen Rui knew that the more anxious he was at this time, the easier it would be for him to show his feet, so he settled down and dealt with it carefully. The fragments about the human world in his memory are very vague, but before implementing the whole plan, Chen Rui once deliberately spent a few days to listen to Samuel in detail about the things he knew about the human world. It can be said that now Eighty percent of his knowledge of the surface world came from Samuel, and the remaining twenty percent belonged to the original "Arthur".
Isabella took a sip of the red fruit wine gracefully and asked, "Has Sir Charles ever been to the holy mountain of the Temple of Light?"
This carriage is somewhat similar to Christina's last time. It is a space prop, but there is only one room in it, and the facilities are quite complete, and it does not feel bumpy at all.
"The sacred mountain of the Temple of Light is the highest place of faith in the human world, and only the priests of the temple or the pilgrims and believers who have permission can enter." Chen Rui showed a self-deprecating smile: "I'm just a vulgar businessman, You don’t have the qualifications to receive divine favor.”
"So, what if I want a Shidalai flower from the Holy Mountain of Light?"
"Sedara? Sacred flower?" Chen Rui frowned. When Samuel introduced the Temple of Light, he mentioned that the Sedara flower in the Holy Mountain of Light has the magical power of light and is known as For the sacred flower.
I don't know where Isabella heard this name from. The key point is that Chen Rui's "return to the human world" is purely a scam. If Isabella really wants this flower, she will definitely not be able to give it to her, so she immediately frowned. Silent.
Seeing Chen Rui's embarrassment, Isabella smiled slightly: "If I can't even meet this request, then should I doubt the real strength of your family in the human world?"
"In normal times, with the strength of the Camplot family, although this request is difficult, it is not impossible." Chen Rui was quick to gain wisdom: "It's just that the current situation is special, and we are cooperating with the demon world, so we must not cause the temple to Attention. I don’t like talking empty words about things that can’t be done, but I can promise Miss that when conditions permit in the future, I will definitely bring the most beautiful sacred flower to Miss.”
"In the future? Then it won't work now? But I still feel quite comfortable in my heart. It seems that you really have a way of dealing with women. I believe there should be many women attracted by your charm." Isabella said lazily Leaning on the sofa behind her, the two plump lumps on her chest changed slightly with this movement, and the ends of the black stockings revealed her snow-white thighs, and any movement was full of temptation.
"I'm ashamed to say that until now, I only have two wives and one fiancee," Chen Rui shook his head. "As the heir of the family, I need to focus on more important matters."
"I like men who know how to discipline themselves," Isabella showed a seductive smile, "I will remember your promise of 'future', and when the time comes, I will also give you an unforgettable gift."
"Miss Isabella," Chen Rui hesitated, and said, "I believe you have learned from Lord Zhuoqie about the predicament my family is facing and my comeback plan. Lord Zhuoqie once hinted to me that Miss can get me a regent. The key to His Royal Highness’s approval, I now sincerely ask Miss to help me, after all, the current situation is still not optimistic, and there is not much time left for me.”
Isabella is not a fuel-efficient lamp. In Charles' situation, if she is too careless, it will arouse suspicion, so Chen Rui directly said the request.
"Master Zhuoqi thinks highly of me, I'm just a widow with meager strength." Isabella sighed, "Also, don't you think, Sir Charles, things that are too easy to get make people feel unreal It feels like... your plan?"
This seemingly unintentional sentence made Chen Rui's heart jump violently, but he remained calm on the surface, and said lightly: "So, I have to pay a considerable price to make Miss feel more real?"
"Or it can be called a sense of fullness." Isabella's charming green eyes were full of autumn waves, "For a woman who is empty all day long, this feeling is really too precious."
These few words were full of provocative hints, if it was a man, he would probably throw her to the ground immediately, fill this woman's emptiness fiercely, and let her taste what it means to be full and fulfilling.
Chen Rui knew the details of this woman, so he didn't have any thoughts at all, but just turned his gaze coldly: "What's your condition?"
"Let's get straight to the point now?" Isabella chuckled and said, "People thought you were going to do foreplay. Shouldn't a man who is interested be more patient with women?"
Chen Rui shook his head: "It is undeniable that Miss's charm makes me almost unbearable. However, compared to taste, responsibility is more important to me."
"Your Excellency Charles is indeed an admirable man," Isabella said with a smile, "It's a pity that men are usually only responsible for themselves... As for women, they should be irresponsible to you. Isn't it?"
Although Isabella smiled charmingly, Chen Rui clearly saw the passing ridicule and remained silent.
Seeing that he was silent, Isabella didn't continue to go around in circles, and said the condition: "Okay... Since His Excellency Charles is a very responsible man, then, go to a place and bring me back someone .”
"Where? What is that person's name and characteristics?" Chen Rui did not refuse or bargain, showing a very straightforward look.
Isabella is very satisfied with his attitude: "The location is in the underground ruins of Trevant, and we will pass by there soon. Don't ask for that person's name. As for the characteristics... it is annoying, very annoying... no matter what that guy becomes , Bring me everything, even if it’s a corpse.”
It has been a while since Chen Rui came to the Demon Realm. He hasn't heard of the Cuifant underground ruins yet, so he asked affirmatively, "Go to the Cuifant underground ruins and bring back an annoying guy, life or death?"
"That's right, there should be only one person in the entire underground ruins. Even the corpse should be very fresh. You don't have to worry about finding the wrong person. In fact, this guy offended me a while ago and was tricked by me to go there. Now I I suddenly want to see if he is dead or has become a lunatic, or let him play with a new trick." Isabella's tone was very flat, as if it was just a very trivial matter.
Chen Rui looked stunned: "Miss, are you implying that if I offend you, I will suffer a terrible end?"
"Your Excellency is too caring, but... women are very vengeful, so you should not offend them easily." Isabella gracefully pulled a lock of curly hair from her forehead behind her ears, and said with a smile, "However, if Your Excellency Charles If this is the case, not only will Isabella not be someone Isabella hates, but... people may really like you, maybe... "
Chen Rui heard the implication. If it can't be done, then she will become someone she hates. This woman has extraordinary intelligence and is vicious. Now is the critical moment of the plan, and she must not be allowed to spoil the big event.
"I will do my best to gain Miss' favor... and help."
Isabella nodded with a smile on her face, went out to tell the coachman a few words, and then returned to the space, saying: "The ruins are a little dangerous, but it is definitely not a problem for a strong man like His Excellency Charles. According to the current The itinerary may arrive in half a day, and the coachman Jadell will take you there. I will wait for your good news in the small town of Rhodes ahead. According to the request of His Royal Highness, I only have three days to spare Time, I believe your plan does not allow too much time delay, right?"
The "little bit" of danger that Isabella mentioned is definitely different. The underground ruins of Trevant should be a very dangerous place, and there are only three days, but I'm afraid I have to go this trip.
"By the way, I'll kill Jardl by the way. Recently, I suddenly hate his obsessive eyes." Isabella added another sentence lightly.
"I am willing to serve you, beautiful lady." Chen Rui smiled slightly, but he felt a chilling feeling in his heart. The coachman was more or less a neighbor around him. This woman killed as soon as she said she wanted to. flower.
"Then, Charles, I wish you success soon." Isabella raised her glass with a sly smile, "Please forgive me for removing that polite address without authorization."
"It's my honor...Isabella." Chen Rui also picked up the cup, and the two clinked glasses. Although they had their own ghosts, they smiled tacitly at the same time.
