Four hundred and thirtieth chapters Lemir (7)

"Felice, do you know? Sometimes I feel a sense of trance. If it weren't for all kinds of opportunities, I might have opened a small shop on such a street and lived a stable and simple life."

At this time, Danica and Phyllis were strolling in a small alley in the north area of ​​the outer city of Twin Cities. This was not a truly prosperous place in Twin Cities. They lived in ordinary civilians, neither rich nor poor. Among them, the rich were just small shop owners, small workshop owners, and the poor also had a skill to eat, so they would not have no food and clothing. In short, this was an ordinary and ordinary neighborhood full of urban flavor.

"To be honest, I really don't believe it." Phyllis did not give Danica any face and said directly, "Will you be willing to be calm? I don't believe it. Don't tell me your ambitions. The desire for power has been completely affected by acquired influence and has nothing to do with nature."

"But don't you think this kind of life is good too? It's plain and simple." Danica still wanted to struggle.

"This is the second impossible reason." Phyllis once again retorted without hesitation, "Others don't know, but you should know that no matter where you are in this society, you will have troubles and sorrows. This so-called ordinary life is also full of hardships that others don't understand for the moment."

The nobles living in luxurious mansions may envy the wildness of the countryside, but for those farmers who work hard in the fields every day, the so-called mountain roads are difficult to walk, and there is no interest at all. By the same token, although the common people here seem to live a leisurely life, they actually have to work hard for the daily life of food, rice, oil and salt. This is not an interesting process. In addition, the disaster that will hit the head at some point, it is not an easy task to be a civilian anywhere in the Katic continent.

"Okay, what you said makes sense." Danica thought for a while and said, "I may have just expressed a boring feeling. In fact, this peaceful life does not belong to me." But why do I always feel that I have lived as an ordinary civilian for a long time.

Danica and Phyllis were chatting while wandering around the area. This time, it was not Luna who followed them, but Aishi. It was rare that Aishi had free time and could follow Danica again to perform her personal maid's job.

After walking for a while, Danica stopped in front of a small shop and said, "Let's rest here!"

Phyllis looked up and saw that this was a small restaurant, which was not large in size, with only five or six tables inside, but it was quite neat. Because it was only 10 o'clock in the morning and it was not yet time for dinner, so there was no one in the store, and there was only one girl dozing off bored behind the counter.

But this girl is a bit special! Philes felt at first glance, but she couldn't tell what was special. Seeing that Danica had already entered, Philes gave up thinking about this question.

When he saw Xiaotong walking out of the kitchen with two cups of tea, Philis finally figured out what was going on. Xiaotong opened this small restaurant, at least she was responsible for it. No wonder the girl behind the counter seemed out of place with the surrounding environment. It should be a guard, Philis thought to himself. This is not to say that there is any problem with the role integration of this guard. After all, Philis is a seventh-level professional, and at least he can hide her senses from her, at least he is a mid-level top professional.

Danica picked up the teacup and said, "What do you want to eat?"

Phyllis gave Danica a blank look and said, "Since this small shop is run by Xiaotong, what else can I eat? It's not the one in the palace?" Danica is not very curious or interested in food. After more than ten years, her taste has basically not changed much. Xiaotong is responsible for this small shop, so the food will definitely cater to Danica's taste. After all, their existence is to serve this Gemini Queen.

"Don't say that!" Danica smiled and said, "Aren't the things in the palace delicious?"

Phyllis resisted the urge to roll her eyes again and said, "No matter how delicious it is, you can't eat it for more than ten years! I really admire you how can you stand it?"

"I'm very nostalgic." Danica said with a smile, finding a reason for herself.

Nostalgia? Because of nostalgia, the person who has been with you for a long time ago and has worked hard for the Gemini Kingdom for the rest of his life, so that Lemir, who was still in his prime, looked like an old face, was executed by you? Phyllis muttered in his heart, but he did not say this, and it was not appropriate to say it as her.

However, Danica seemed to see what Philis was thinking. She explained: "The fact of Lemil is impossible. He is provoking the royal power, and it is my bottom line. He must pay the price for his actions..."

After saying a brief sentence, Danica noticed that Xiaotong was standing far away and said, "Okay, order the dishes first, Xiaotong, just make a serving according to my habit. Phyllis, what do you want to eat? If you don't say anything, you will have to eat the same thing as me."

Phyllis sighed and said, "Okay, make me some elves. I haven't returned to the Moonlight Forest for a long time. I'm the one who should be nostalgic!" In order to take care of my own taste, the chefs in the palace are best at the food of the elves, except for the dozen dishes that Danica likes to eat, and the same should be true here.

Xiaotong responded and went back to the kitchen. Phyllis was about to speak, but stopped because she saw Emily coming.

When he entered this small restaurant, Emily came to the two of them and greeted them first: "Master, Miss Yuelan."

Danica continued to taste the black tea she brought over just now and asked, "How is the investigation?"

Emily replied immediately: "It has been basically investigated. This matter was indeed urged by members of the Crow Brotherhood behind the scenes..." Emily stopped and looked at Danica halfway through the speech.

It is easy to investigate the facts clearly, but the specific conviction depends on Danica's wishes - whether to pursue only those behind the scenes or involve all the relevant people, these are not something Emily can decide.

Danica took a sip of tea, as if she was still savoring the tea fragrance. After a while, she said, "Okay, just have evidence. Since this matter was led by the Crow Brotherhood, it is good to announce that the Crow Brotherhood is involved in rebellion."

Emily asked carefully: "Is it involving the entire Crow Brotherhood?" According to the Gemini Law, everyone involved in the rebellion will be executed. There is no difference between severity and seriousness. It is all a death penalty. It involves so many lives. Emily must ask clearly about this matter.

Danica glanced at Emily and said, "Yes, the Crow Brothers are suspected of treason, and all its members are executed."

"Then..." If all the members of the Crow Brotherhood were executed, the impact on the entire kingdom would be too great. This not only takes into account that the Crow Brotherhood has a large number of people, which is estimated to be hundreds of thousands. More importantly, the Crow Brotherhood and the Executive Department have a high degree of overlap. Many officials of the Executive Department are members of the Crow Brotherhood. If all the members of the Crow Brotherhood are killed, there will be basically few people in the Executive Department, which will directly lead to the complete collapse of the administrative system of the entire Gemini Kingdom.

This kind of thing is important, but it is not Emily's duty, so she didn't say anything for a long time. Instead, Phyllis asked directly: "If the Brotherhood is eradicated so simply and roughly, your administrative department will basically be destroyed. Do you really want the Gemini Kingdom to fall into chaos?"

Danica smiled and said, "Of course not. Ai Xue, as far as I know, almost all the labor force in the Gemini Kingdom is your employees. If the administrative department temporarily collapses completely, can you help stabilize the social situation?" Ai Xue Chamber of Commerce controls more than 90% of the industries in the Gemini Kingdom, including agriculture that accounts for a large population, and she also treats it as an industry for it. So it can be said that more than 90% of the labor force in the Gemini Kingdom are Ai Xue's employees. Ai Xue Chamber of Commerce is fully capable of managing these employees to a certain extent, and then managing almost all civilian families.

Danica's words shocked Ai Xue. Because Ai Xue received a special order from Danica a few years ago, she asked Ai Xue Chamber of Commerce to pay more attention to the lives of employees. Ai Xue was a little confused at that time, because it was a bit overwhelming. The social responsibilities of Ai Xue Chamber of Commerce overlapped with the administrative department to a certain extent. Ai Xue also asked at the time, but Danica did not give a clear answer.

Now, Ai Xue finally understood why Danica did this - the only function of Ai Xue Chamber of Commerce was to shoulder the responsibility of maintaining social order when the administrative department completely collapsed. This matter was ordered by Danica a few years ago! Did she have the heart to destroy the entire administrative department at that time? Ai Xue fell into memories. She remembered that something big happened in the Gemini Kingdom, by the way, it was assassination! Danica was assassinated during that time, but such a serious matter was finally left unresolved. Now it seems that this matter was not easily let go, but continued, and it was not until now that the result came out.

"How is it, is there any problem?" Danica asked again.

"Ah? No, no problem." Ai Xue, who was a little swaying, said quickly. A few years ago, Danica was preparing to destroy the Executive Department, or to be precise, the Crow Brotherhood, and of course she is ready now.

"Very good." Danica seemed very satisfied with Aishi's answer, and a smile appeared on her face.

She took out a very thick document and handed it to Emily, saying, "This is the roster of the Crow Brotherhood, a total of 534,893 people will be executed."

Hearing this number, Emily shivered, but still took the list.

Phyllis, who had been listening quietly, sighed slightly and said, "Okay, although I shouldn't say this, someone has asked me to come to me. Danica, I hope you can forgive more than 100 of them."

Danica didn't seem surprised by Philis' request. She chuckled and said, "Is it Oliga?"

Phyllis nodded honestly and said, "Yes."

Because it was through Philis, Oliga had the opportunity to study at the Elves Royal Magic Academy, so she and Philis are still quite familiar with it. Before Lemir died, Oliga wanted Oliga to keep more than 100 people on the list, but what should she do? Oliga just returned to the Gemini Kingdom and didn't know many people, so there was no one who could talk to the Gemini Queen. There was no way, Oliga could only find the only Philis, who was more familiar, and asked her to convince Danica to go out.

Danica asked, "Which one hundred people she wants to ask for pardon?"

Phyllis took out a piece of paper and said, "No, there are only these one hundred and seven."

Danica took it and looked at it, and said with a smile: Lemil is indeed amazing. He has paved the way for Oliga. With the assistance of more than a hundred people, Oliga will be able to resume normal operation of the administrative department soon."

Without much hesitation, Danica said directly: "Okay, I agree, Emily, I have forgiven these more than a hundred people." As she said that, she handed the list to Emily.

Emily took it and glanced briefly, saying, "Yes, Master."

Phyllis asked with sorrow on her face, "Danika, why do you do this?" Phyllis did not believe how big the so-called brotherhood could make a wave in the Gemini Kingdom. Even if the incident happened on New Year's Day, Danika had acquiescent or even actively promoted it. With Danika's control over this kingdom, no one could have planned a large-scale gathering without her permission.

Danica waved her hand and asked Emily and Aishi to go down first, then sighed and said, "Felice, you know, the Gemini Kingdom is the first centralized country in the continent of Katic. Faced with such a new political model, everyone, including Lemil, is not used to it."

Seeing Phyllis's surprised expression, Danica smiled and said, "Didn't you expect that? Even ordinary people who were promoted to nobles because of this political model and enjoyed the treatment of bureaucratic aristocrats are essentially not suitable for this political model of supreme royal power."

"how so?"

Danica sighed slightly and said, "There is no way. The aristocratic division model has been implemented in this continent for tens of thousands of years. Everyone in the continent has become accustomed to this political model, so it is really unlikely that they can turn their thinking habits around for a moment."

"What should I do?"

Danica said helplessly: "What else can I do? Just like this time, the entire administrative department will be completely destroyed and then re-established. In this process, the authority of the royal power will be strengthened to a certain extent."
