Kilford raised his eyebrows, pushed up his glasses again, and looked at the Archon inexplicably. At the same time, he also glanced at Euphilia, who was completely questioning the current situation, with a questioning look. novel.
Just when he was about to say something, Kilford heard a frivolous voice: "It won't work if you demote him to a civilian. Count Jeremiah is a key part of my next important plan. You can't touch civilians." According to my plan, it would be okay if I start as an ordinary pilot again. Anyway, if this happens, the worst I can do is recruit him to join the special mission. Anyway, for the special mission, there are still some special rights, right? What?"
Lloyd stood up after the Archon, and once again fooled everyone in the hall, including Euphilia. The Archon had considerable power in District 11 and was responsible for all matters related to discipline and trial in the military. , of course, considering the structure of Butalia, it cannot be bigger than the governor, but Cornelia is not the governor of District 11, and Kilford, the captain of Cornelia's personal guard, is even less so. To put it simply, the Archon is clearly telling Kilford that you have no right to interfere in the affairs of District 11.
The Archon's standing up made many people confused and seemed a bit deceived. Lloyd's standing up also deepened this mood a lot. The special agent does not belong to District 11 and is a special person for District 11. It is an independent agency under the direct jurisdiction of the empire. Although it has no direct rights over District 11, it does have other privileges. In many cases, both the military and the government must provide full cooperation, including now in the council hall of District 11. It occupies a large area, and no one can say anything about it. It is a special agency that is independent of District 11 but located in District 11. It is really not just a casual talk to say that Jeremiah is recruited. .
Kilford's eyes narrowed, and his expression began to look a little solemn. The fact that two people stood up to oppose him was completely beyond his expectation. As he originally thought, he accepted Cornelia's order to come here. In District 11, it should be easy to assist Euphilia in managing District 11. When the time comes, he will become the deputy governor and help Euphilia consolidate her status and power.
This is definitely not an attempt by Cornelia and Kilford to covet the rights that belong to Euphilia, but an arrangement and arrangement made by Cornelia standing in the position of her sister and sincerely wanting to help her dearest sister. The decision is definitely a good thing rather than a bad thing for Euphilia. At the same time, Cornelia also hopes that her sister can remain as innocent, kind and gentle as she is now, and does not want her to be exposed to too many dirty things. , and also telling everyone in District 11 that Euphilia is not someone who can be bullied casually, and her backer is Cornelia, the most powerful imperial princess.
But before taking the first step, Kilford was troubled by the current situation. His mind was thinking crazily about what the situation was now. Are these people who stood up targeting him, Jeremiah, or others? Was it because he was targeting the masked knight of unknown origin, or because he didn't want Cornelia's hands to reach into District 11, or because two people had surrendered to Euphilia in a short period of time.
"Or is their opposition actually because of him?" Kilford's eyes were fixed on Xiao Ran, staring at the masked man who didn't seem to say a word from beginning to end, calm and indifferent, as if everything happened He seemed to have nothing to do with him, and even acted very calmly when he said that he would take over his right to establish the personal guard.
"You have gone too far." The consul said again with a serious face: "Captain of the Guards of Guilford, you are the captain of Her Majesty Cornelia's Guards, not Her Majesty Euphelia's. When you already have an exclusive knight, it is not up to you to establish and lead the personal guard. This is the responsibility of the exclusive knight, not you. What's more, you are only the commander of the personal guard, no matter from what aspect. You have no right to interfere with Her Highness Euphilia’s affairs.”
Kilford fell silent. It was hard for him to say anything at this time. It would be useless to say anything before the empire's local orders arrived. He did not have any qualifications and rights, and even if the orders from above were passed by Cone Leah's methods were spread to District 11, and they were not aimed at the current seemingly inexplicable situation. What will happen in the end still depends on Euphilia's position. Smart people don't need to say anything more at this time.
What's even more strange is that the people around him didn't speak for Xiao Ran. Although they had dissatisfaction with Xiao Ran on their faces, no one stood up to help Kilford speak, which was a bit embarrassing. But most people present felt that now that there was a new governor and a knight who was so tough that it made people feel scared, the power in his hands had to be divided, and it was clear that another one would not become a ten If the subordinates of Her Highness Cornelia, the governor of the first district, want to take some of the power from them, that would be a bit too bullying.
What's more, the fearful look that Xiao Ran had just left on them had been deeply ingrained in their hearts. At least in this name, with the Supreme Consul of the Eleventh District Military Tribunal standing up to support Xiao Ran, they didn't want to Offend Xiao Ran and the Archon at the same time, otherwise I don't know how he will die by then. For the sake of his own life, it is the best choice not to stand up and support Kilford now.
No matter how naive Euphilia is, she now understands what these people are arguing about after hearing what these people said. What's more, Euphilia was very hesitant when Kilford said he wanted to take over the Guards at the beginning. He glanced at Xiao Ran, but later he didn't understand what the situation was when the two people in the military court, Moyas Consul and Lloyd, stood up, but now he could see something. These two people were supporting Xiao Ran. Opposed Guilford's takeover of her Guards.
"Mr. Kilford, thank you for coming over. I will contact my sister personally and express my gratitude to her." Euphilia breathed twice gently and said to Kilford seriously: "But I I want to make my own decision about the Guards. My knight is a brave, wise and powerful man. I believe he has enough ability to lead the Guards and assist me in managing District 11, and this is what I want to do. It is my duty to protect the knight."
Kilford looked helpless, but he could only caress his chest and bend down: "Yes, I understand, Your Highness Euphilia."
Although Kilford said that he understood, he had already made up his mind to tell Cornelia everything about this later, and then to find out about Lelouch Xiao, Archon, Lloyd, and Jeremy. What is the relationship between the four people? Why can't these losers here even stand up to oppose? He suddenly felt that his actions were a little impulsive. He did impulsive things without understanding the situation here, but who can Thinking that Euphilia had only been here for less than two days, but she had undergone such incomprehensible changes so quickly
Euphilia nodded and said in a gentle voice: "Mr. Guilford must be tired after coming from a long distance. I will ask someone to take you down to rest first. We will have a good conversation tomorrow. I also want to know about my sister. What happened over there."
"Yes." The helpless Kilford was taken away to rest by Euphilia's attendants. Euphilia turned around and said to everyone: "Next, as the governor of District 11, I hope that all of us can Let’s unite as one and work hard to make District 11 a better place. It’s getting late, so you can go back and rest.”
Xiao Ran, who had never made any statement, stood up at this time and said to everyone: "At nine o'clock in the morning, Her Royal Highness Euphilia will give a speech to all the people in District 11 to stabilize the morale of all military and civilian officials in District 11. , at ten o'clock, a meeting will be held in the Council Hall. The main heads of all departments need to attend and bring your reports for the year. The Governor needs to thoroughly understand everything about District 11. At 2:30 p.m., there will be a meeting on District 11. We will conduct inspections at the district garrison base, and all aspects need to be prepared in advance.”
Euphilia was stunned for a moment, and immediately glanced in Xiao Ran's direction. However, after seeing that Xiao Ran didn't express anything, she suppressed the doubts in her heart, nodded to Xiao Ran, turned around and left, returning to herself. s room.
Xiao Ran followed Euphilia all the way, but Veretta also came up with Xiao Ran. After watching Euphilia and Xiao Ran enter the room, she stood outside the door and closed the door.
As soon as she entered the room, Euphilia couldn't help the curiosity in her heart, turned to face Xiao Ran, and asked in confusion: "Why did you say that just now?"
Xiao Ran said: "Your Highness, these are things you must do immediately. Only by taking the initiative will you show your responsibility to District 11, and you can stabilize the people's morale, the military's morale and the situation more quickly, and create a better atmosphere." A positive and uplifting atmosphere gives these people something to do. If you let other people ask for it before notifying you, it will show that you don't pay enough attention to District 11. As a knight, I have an obligation to check for the leaks and fill the gaps for His Highness."
In fact, Xiao Ran said this a lot softly. Euphilia had never thought about what she would do next to strike while the iron was hot, instead of taking the initiative to understand and contact the situation in District 11 and grasp the rights of District 11. , as a leader, but can only passively let his subordinates push forward, and if he does not have the slightest idea, then he can really only use the word incompetence to describe it.
Euphilia nodded thoughtfully, turned around, put her hands behind her back and walked slowly forward. When she reached the bed, she turned around again and smiled apologetically at Xiao Ran: "Just now I'm sorry, I almost couldn't even let you do it, even the captain of the personal guard, but you are obviously my knight. Fortunately, someone stepped forward to save me. My sister's kindness is really hard to refuse."
Euphilia also never thought that Cornelia sent people here to fight for power, but people with more evil minds would always use the most malicious purposes to speculate on other people's thoughts, while Euphilia was the opposite, knowing Cornelia did it for her own good.
"It doesn't matter." Xiao Ran shook his head and said: "Your Highness Cornelia is doing this for your own good. If Captain Kilford can take over the job of Captain of the Guards, I think I should be able to relax a little bit."
Euphilia leaned forward, as if this could shorten the distance between her and Xiao Ran, and blinked at Xiao Ran with a pair of beautiful big eyes: "But in that case, Mr. Xiao Ran, you will never sincerely lend me your power." Right? Because this means that I don’t have the determination and courage to change District 11 at all.”
After saying that, Euphilia herself laughed, turned around again and exposed her naked back to Xiao Ran's eyes, stretched out slightly and sat on the boat, holding her chin up. Looking at Xiao Ran like this: "Mr. Xiao Ran, there are no outsiders in my room. You feel like you don't even recognize me now. I'm a little not used to Mr. Xiao Ran like this. I think Mr. Xiao Ran, you should be very... He loves to laugh, but his straight face now makes him look a little scared."
Xiao Ran sighed feebly in his heart, shook his head and said to Euphilia, his tone became a little softer: "No, no matter what, in order to repay your trust, I will lend you my power. I will do my best to help you, so just take a good rest, it’s not long until nine o’clock, I will be waiting for you outside the door before nine o’clock.”
"Yeah." Euphilia nodded slightly, her eyes gradually moving up to look at the ceiling: "It feels like a lot of things happened today."
"That's why you need to have a good rest. You will have to work hard all day tomorrow." Xiao Ran turned around and opened the door again, nodded to Veretta outside the door, and then turned back to Euphilia and said: " Then I will take my leave... Euphilia."
"Goodbye, Mr. Xiao Ran."
The door was closed, Xiao Ran stood silent outside the door for a moment, and said: "Villetta, from now on you will temporarily serve as His Highness's affairs officer. Until a qualified new affairs officer is found, His Highness's safety will be temporarily entrusted to you. , find a few trustworthy women to provide personal protection to His Highness."
Veretta saluted: "Yes, Lord Knight."
Xiao Ran left directly, and Veretta stood outside the door and began to contact trustworthy female subordinates. After making several calls in succession, she looked towards the corridor where Xiao Ran had long since disappeared. After hesitating for a moment, she knocked gently. Euphelia's door.
After Xiao Ran left, he saw Jeremiah who had been waiting for him in the hall. Jeremiah quickly greeted Xiao Ran and said, "Teacher, everything has been arranged."
"Take me there." Xiao Ran nodded and followed Jeremiah towards the conference room in the Governor's Mansion. On the way, Xiao Ran looked at Jeremiah's back and said, "About the man named Kil Ignore what Ford's people say. District 11 is definitely the place where Her Highness Euphilia makes the decision. As long as she doesn't speak for confirmation, no one is qualified to punish you. Now Her Highness Euphilia can really rely on you. There are only us.”—
