What the hell are you thinking about? After hearing the rare "revelation of true feelings" from the old king, the princess pursed her lips and remained silent, while Leon next to her almost laughed in anger. Although he knew that the old king had fallen into a coma early and was not aware of the current situation, the truth of what he said was still full of comedy effect. At present, the gangsters under his command...ahem...the enthusiastic citizens inspired by the princess have basically taken control of the palace and are collecting the weapons of the guards. As for the opposition members, when they left the House and got on their carriages, they were caught by the spatial anomaly holders in the chaotic party. Now they are probably stacked in a small dark room. It can be said that there are not many people left who can "walk the talk" in the entire royal capital. At least for the next few days, the upper-level power will be in a complete vacuum period, and they can basically take over whatever they want. Although the escort troops arriving a few streets away were the old king's staunch confidants, only taking orders from him, and possessing heavy firepower, the average level of "enthusiastic citizens" who had not graduated from military schools could not stop them, in theory. There is still the possibility of a comeback. But now that the old king, queen, and prince are all in his hands, will the guards take the lead and make a comeback? When the time comes, hang these three people outside the palace door. If you can, you can open fire. One of them will be killed and sent to a military court. Two of them will be shot on the spot. If all three are killed, the princess will succeed to the throne on the spot! All in all, this game is completely checkmate.
Instead of ordering Joshua to be nice to Veronica, it is better for Joshua to think carefully about whether he should find a slim one or a plump one when marrying a female monkey. … ? ! ! From the princess's silent silence, he vaguely noticed something. The old king's pupils couldn't help but shrink suddenly. The tenderness that had just shown on his face suddenly disappeared without a trace, and he asked gloomily: "Veronica? What did you do?" "Father." She did not answer the old king's question. After being silent for a while, the princess directly faced the old king's sinister and fierce eyes, with a hint of panic, and responded calmly: "I will be a good king." "..." "In addition, for the sake of what you just said, I will treat Joshua well. If the Chancellor of Finance cooperates enough, I will not do anything to him and the Queen. You can rest assured to retire." "..." After hearing the words of the princess, looking at her calm eyes with sadness hidden in them, the old king's lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he was unable to say it. He just turned his head and whispered: "Feel sorry." "You have nothing to apologize for, haven't you always been like this?" The princess bit her lip, pushed the old king's wheelchair out of the study, handed it to the female officer outside the door, and asked her to push the old king to rest. Then she stood next to the window blown out by Lyon, looking down in a daze. "Veronica?" It felt like there was something wrong with the princess's mood. It was neither the joy of successfully seizing the throne nor the relaxation after achieving her goal, but rather a hint of sadness. Leon couldn't help but ask softly: "What’s wrong with you?" "I...I'm actually fine..."
After hearing Leon's inquiry, the princess bit her lower lip, then smiled with red eyes: "It's just a little regretful." "Pity?" "Well, sorry." Putting out her hand to hold the edge of the broken window sill, the princess faced the cold wind blowing in and whispered in a lonely voice: "It's a pity that the only family member I miss has never recognized my feelings from the beginning to the end. They want me to agree to something, but they still refuse to discuss it. Instead, they try to trick me in front of me." "?" "You don't really think that my father said that because he couldn't see the situation clearly, do you?" After looking at the confused Leon, Princess Veronica sighed softly and said: "Although he has been unconscious and didn't know that you had led people to take control of the palace, he should have guessed it when he woke up and found that the people waiting beside him were you and me, not the queen and Joshua. Part of the situation. And he also understands my character. When he sees that I am not busy dealing with the beginning and end of the coup, but waiting here for him to wake up, he understands that we have completely controlled the situation and Joshua will never have a chance to succeed. " Does the old king know? After hearing what the princess said, Leon couldn't help but be slightly startled, and then frowned subconsciously. Since the old king has already guessed the situation, why do he still say that after Joshua succeeds to the throne, let him treat the princess well...wait! "It seems you have figured it out too." Glancing at Leon who was a little stunned, Veronica smiled, then her eyes were red and she said somewhat self-deprecatingly: "This is how the royal family shows family affection. He was worried that I would kill Joshua after I succeeded to the throne, so he took advantage of the fact that he could still 'control the situation' and pretended not to notice it, and went out of his way to say Such a sentence. Although they are just words, since Joshua has been kind to my sister since he succeeded to the throne, then I will naturally have to show some mercy after I succeed to the throne. After all, I can't be inferior to Joshua, right? " "..." So... the old king was playing tricks on him. He knew that Joshua had already lost, so he pretended to be crazy and used words to trick Veronica, hoping to save his son's life? After understanding the old king's plan, Leon finally understood why the princess felt sad, but he didn't know what to comfort him, so he had to stand with her by the window for a while. After a while, a cold hand came up, grabbed Leon's hand, and shook it gently as if praying. "Leon..." Looking at Leon who was looking over, the princess with red eyes asked in a low voice: "I'm not going to lie to you, I feel a little uncomfortable right now. Can you let me lean on you?" "good……" "Thanks." Leaning on Leon's shoulder, facing the cold wind blowing continuously from the window, the Queen said in a lonely voice:
"Actually, I don't feel disappointed that my father is playing tricks on me. After all, I've long been used to it. What really makes me sad is that at this time, he doesn't even want to beg me." "Please?" "Well, like a real family member, please beg me for once." After shrinking into Leon's arms, the princess pursed her lips and whispered: "It's not that I want him to beg me in a low voice to make me feel better, but people like my father will use everything they can use as much as possible. If he felt that begging me was useful, he would speak directly without hesitation. The only reason why he didn't do this was that he felt that the relationship between father and daughter was worthless and not a good 'card'. " "Not necessarily..." Looking at the increasingly red circles in the princess's eyes, Leon couldn't help but comforted: "Your father... maybe he just doesn't know what you think of him and feels that you don't value him as a father that much, so he doesn't want to ask you to ask." "no." The princess shook her head and said: "Although my father doesn't know how I view him, he must understand how he views me as my daughter, and in such a short period of time, he could only use his own feelings for me to subconsciously measure my feelings for him. Since he made this decision in the end, it proves that in his heart, the father-daughter relationship between me and him is indeed worthless. Instead of playing the emotional card to plead with me, it would be better to just use a little trick and use words. Trap me for insurance. To me, he is the only relative I can miss, but to him, I am just a stranger. Playing love cards is a privilege only among relatives, and between me and him, There are always only interests and gains and losses. " "..." "I'm sorry, I've told you so much but I have nothing to do..." After letting out a low sigh, the princess looked down from the broken window and looked at Joshua holding the awakened queen outside the garden and crying bitterly. She sighed with a lonely expression: “Actually, I’m really jealous of Joshua. He is reckless, irritable, arrogant, childish, and likes to spend money... He has many, many bad habits, but his father really likes him as a son. He also has a mother who loves him very much, and an uncle who can forgive him no matter what mistakes he makes. . I do everything better than him, and I can handle everything in an orderly manner. Countless people are willing to praise me, but since my mother passed away, no one has been able to favor me so unreasonably. " "..." "Leon..." After gently pulling on Leon's clothes, the princess, who was leaning on Leon's arms, raised her head and whispered softly with tears in her eyes: "Will you be the one for me?"
