This Overlord Doesn’t Care About Anything

Chapter 245: 49. Far from reaching the center of the storm

Views:

Tamrose looked over blankly, as if he hadn't guessed such a result at all.

He was still trying to use his common sense to deduce my thoughts, so he smiled and said to me:

"Brother Lide, are you worried that we will sell you? There is no need to worry about this. First, you and Baihuang participated in this plan. If we really cross the river and demolish the bridge, we will definitely offend the Lord of the Sea of Clouds. I think No one in the world would do such an unwise thing. Second, we can sign an agreement with you privately, which is clearly written in black and white, and we can’t deny it even if we want to. If you don’t believe me, Brother Lide, you might as well read it.”

As he spoke, he took out two agreements from his pocket and placed them on the stone table.

I didn't even bother to look at it, so I said to him:

"I'm not kidding you. You're sure to convince me, but I'm destined to be the man you can't get."

At the end of the day, I flicked my hair, turned around and prepared to leave.

But as soon as he turned around, he heard Tamrose say slowly behind him:

"Brother Lide, if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the little princess Lanna who will help you defend yourself."

I stood still and turned to look at him.

Tamrose poured out a cup of cold tea, took a sip, and said:

"Tonight, Your Majesty, the Queen, and Her Majesty the Princess went to rest in the garden. His Majesty Lanna was serving tea to His Majesty. When he walked over with the teacup, His Majesty saw the wound on his right index finger. His Majesty became suspicious because of this. We sent two maids to search for Her Royal Highness, and found a handkerchief with blood written on it in her pocket."

Having said that, Tamrose looked at me fixedly, said with a smile:

"Your Majesty loves Her Majesty Lanna very much. Because of this, he feels betrayed. As his most beloved daughter, Lanna's actions this time really disappointed His Majesty. In front of everyone, Your Majesty He took the cane and slapped Lanna's back one after another, tearing her skin apart and bleeding out."

Tamrose drank the tea in his cup, observed the expression on my face, and said:

"You can't blame your majesty. A girl with an elbow turned outward is annoying. No one likes their own raised children to help others deal with themselves. After the beating, your majesty secretly imprisoned her highness Lanna in a place where no one can find her." Let her reflect on everything she has done there. Has Brother Lide ever entered a small dark room? Every day when I open and close my eyes, it is all dark, and I can’t do anything. I can get through it, but every minute and every second after that is torment. For a long time, there is no light, no one to talk to myself, it is more uncomfortable than death."

I asked:

"Can you save her?"

Tamrose also stood up, picked up the agreement on the table, walked towards me, said with a smile:

"Of course there is... Brother Lide and Miss Baihuang are both city lords, and it is inconvenient for the city lord to participate in the internal affairs of the royal family. But we have various royal family members in our contacts, and we can entrust them to intercede on their behalf. When His Majesty disappears Huo, I will naturally let her go. How about it, Brother Lide, now you have seen my surprised expression, and you also know about His Royal Highness Lanna, can you sign it?"

I glanced at the two agreements in his hand, without much hesitation, I raised my hand and slapped it to the ground.

"forget it."

I replied lightly:

"If Lanna knew that I signed this kind of thing to save her, she probably wouldn't be very happy. Maybe she would lose her temper with me and feel that she misjudged the person."

I left the courtyard, and before I left, I said to Tamrose who was standing there:

"We don't need outsiders to worry about our Yunyang affairs. In the same way, I will save Her Highness Lanna myself, and I don't need your hypocrisy."

When the night wind blows, I sigh deeply.

That little girl, Lanna, is so young, why is her brain not so easy to use.

It was just a public confession at the beginning, so foolishly taken seriously. On weekdays, he wrote to me all day long, but this time he was strictly guarded by his father and the people around him, and he still secretly left me a blood letter, reminding me to run away from the capital as soon as possible. She really hoped that I would be well. This kind of natural emotion is too much, and it is easy for people to feel ashamed.

I shook my head, temporarily putting useless thoughts behind me, now is not the time to think about these things.

Walking back to the previous chamber, before entering the door, I heard Bai Huang's angry voice from inside:

"You guys can pull it off! Cooperate? I, Baihuang, wouldn't cooperate with people like you! The treasury is empty, so I can't save everyone? Yes, I see that you are all quite rich, and you can make a lot of money by yourself Save tens of thousands of people. I, Baihuang, a city lord from outside, dare to mortgage all my previous belongings. If I can save one more, I will save one more! Do you dare? The empty treasury is just an excuse. Why is the treasury empty? Why is it difficult, because you blood-sucking fleas are here! Why, dare to do it or not, dare to take it or give it?!"

Abel replied:

"Miss Bai Huang, where do we have any money? It's nothing more than some salary..."

Bai Huang shouted:

"Enough! I figured it out, Umi is a hundred times stronger than you in this regard. He can go to Tianyue Mountain to share the joys and sorrows with those victims. You probably haven't even seen what it looks like there! Cooperate with people like you unless I'm blind. Farewell!"

After finishing speaking, she opened the door with a bang, just in time to see me standing at the door, and said:

"Leed! I was shocked. You're back. Have you changed your medicine?"

I smiled and said:

"I always felt that it was not clean, so I didn't change it."

Bai Huang muttered:

"It's fine if you don't change it. Heggy, Alayah, let's go back."

I asked:

"Shouldn't we talk a little more?"

Bai Huang sneered and said:

"There is nothing to talk about. If they are really willing to donate half of their property, I believe they sincerely want to save those 300,000 people, and they will seriously consider whether to cooperate with them. Now? One by one started to cry poorly in front of me, I'm not a fool, what's the use of a person who can only speak beautiful words, only those who are really willing to pay the price for what they say are eligible to be recognized by my white phoenix."

With the support of Alayya, I followed Bai Huang and limped out of Tamrose's mansion.

When I got to the door, I turned my head and looked at the door that was closing bit by bit. At the end of the line of sight, we could see the masked prince staring at our backs. Beside him, Tamrose leaned forward and said something in a low voice.

The prince nodded slowly with a chill in his eyes.

I frowned, and suddenly had a bad feeling.
