Chapter 24: Angelina Plays Cupid
Although he was sleepy, Roger didn't dare close his eyes.
He still kept a little bit of vigilance, always prepared for a sneak attack from the Queen of Eternal Night.
Of course, the reason goes without saying.
He got up immediately and replied with sincerity:
"I dare not have such delusional thoughts."
[Holiday, what a beautiful word... But the empire doesn't have weekends or golden weeks! ]
"I grant you a seven-day vacation."
[Ah, this holiday is a bit fortunate, but the salary hasn't been released yet...]
"You have done a good job as History Minister, and you will be rewarded with 50,000 gold coins."
Roger looked at the Queen unexpectedly, blinking his eyes.
[Ah, are you still sending money? This queen is too generous, will she send me a few more maids and concubines? ]
"Get out!"
The queen suddenly flicked her finger.
The strong wind blew Roger like a cannonball and swept across the palace.
It's fine if you want vacation and money but how dare you openly ask me for women?
Scumbag!
The Evernight Queen herself doesn't quite understand why she is so angry.
Giving money and women is a standard method to win people's hearts.
With the wealth of the empire, you can request any type of woman and it can be fulfilled.
But she just didn't want to give it to Roger.
Because... um, yes, because he getting ahead of himself!
You have to take what I give.
But if I don't want to give it, who are you to ask me for it?
Not even if you think about it in your heart!
I am an emperor through the ages, a domineering queen, and I won't bow to anyone!
Do you think that you will get what you want, just by thinking about it? Did this bastard think that the empire can't change without him?
Didn't I give you a rest?
After you recover, I'll continue to play with you and squeeze you dry!
Hmph!
The Queen of Eternal Night thought of a plan in her heart, and the depressing feeling from being harassed by [So Sleepy] for the whole day all had vanished.
She happily approved the memorial.
Seven days later, the second round...
Let's wait and see!
…
…
The full name of the Green Vines Imperial Palace was Xinghan Palace, which was looted and burned in the invasion war of the Vanbruga Kingdom.
After the Eternal Night Queen destroyed the Vanbruga Kingdom, she rebuilt the Xinghan Palace.
Then after the empire was established, it was rebuilt again.
Today, this place seems to be one of the most magnificent palaces on the mainland. The three-layered palace walls each taller and stronger than the other.
Roger was blown by the strong wind and fell directly to the main entrance of Xinghan Palace.
The two rows of guards heard the whistling wind and nervously shouted, "There are assassins", and formed a circle to prepare for battle.
Then they saw Lord Dio Brando landing on the flat sand.
Although he was a bit mussed up, he was wearing the luxurious clothing of a cabinet minister, the medals bestowed by the queen, and had a young and handsome face.
The guards withdrew their half-drawn weapons while the captain stepped forward and asked with concern:
"Sir Brando, are you all right?"
"I'm alright, it's just that my flying magic suddenly went out of control."
Roger pretended to answer lightly, combing his hair that was out of shape.
He didn't dare to say that the queen chased him out.
One second he was smiling and looking forward to get a holiday and money, the next second he was spiraling through the air.
The moody queen!
However, considering that the Queen gave him a holiday and money, Roger decided to refrain from spreading gossip.
The captain of the guards was suspicious, and said with a concerned face: "Then Lord Dio, be more careful."
"Yes, I won't fly anymore."
Roger walked towards the main road feeling optimistic.
While he fooled the guards his magic power is deceptive. He can't release single magic as a magician.
Naturally, there is no rental carriage at the gate of the palace, so he has to walk a short distance forward before he can sit on the carriage.
…
…
Charles House.
Angelina is in the study room counting the expenses of the house's accounts.
Next to it is a stack of dessert "puffs" that my brother taught me how to make.
The fluffy and crispy dough and the sweet and silky cream is very delicious.
You can also add different spices to change the taste.
My brother has recently shared a lot of delicious desserts in the kitchen, and Angelina likes them very much.
The only downside is too many calories. she eats supper every day, and her weight has quietly increased by two kilograms.
But she just couldn't help it.
That stinky brother doesn't read books seriously, only studies what he wants to eat, and feeds his sister every day with ulterior motives!
At this moment, a shadow suddenly turned into a black-clothed woman, knelt, and reported:
"Master Right Prime Minister, Master Dio has left the palace."
"He Stayed until this late? That's great."
"But…"
"He was kicked out of the palace by Her Majesty."
"Well... step back, I understand."
Angelina's eyes flickered, and when the woman in black disappeared, she sighed softly.
It was the first time that His Majesty took the initiative to let a person of the same age and the opposite sex stay in the palace until this time.
Unfortunately, the final result doesn't seem to be very good.
Does it seem to be noisy?
Sure enough, talented men are not able to accept powerful women.
Although she is known as a strong woman, compared to Her Majesty...
Heh, who doesn't know that the right minister is praised for being gentle, kind, and considerate?
On the first day of entering the palace, Prince Dio broke out into a quarrel with Her Majesty to the point of fighting?
His temper is also strong.
As expected of a person who dared to expose the history of the empire to such a degree.
Angelina feels that she has a great responsibility for Her Majesty's romantic relationship and the continuation of the empire...
It is necessary to work hard to bridge the contradictions between the two sides and help them find great harmony in life!
…
…
The next day in the government hall during the cabinet meeting.
Everyone was a little puzzled by the absence of the Minister of History, Dio Brando.
"He's ill and asked me for a few days off."
After the Queen of Eternal Night arrived, she explained lightly and arranged the meeting to proceed as usual.
Everyone didn't ask much and didn't think much about it.
Only Angelina sighed softly.
Her spies told her that after Dio landed in the palace, he could run, jump, and walk by himself, and he didn't need a day off at all.
But he was nowhere to be seen at the cabinet meeting the next day.
So, the two must be quarreling, right?
Her Majesty was extremely angry, so he was not allowed to join the cabinet.
Out of sight and out of mind, right?
Through the performance of the Eternal Night Queen, Angelina confirmed her guesses.
…
…
An hour later, the cabinet meeting ended.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report in private."
Angelina took the initiative.
The Queen of Eternal Night nodded and allowed her to stay.
Margaret pouted and said, "Your Majesty, I..."
"You also want to report separately?"
"I will retire, Your Majesty please rest early!"
Margaret pretended that nothing happened.
There is absolutely nothing on her side that needs to be reported separately.
So she changed her words so as not to make Her Majesty unhappy because the consequences of deceiving the king would be serious.
But she isn't satisfied!
She could only stare at Angelina angrily.
When I subdue Dio Brando, with the help of my staff, you will cry!
Let him open the price!
Margaret made up her mind and walked out of the political hall with steps that she did not recognize.
Apart from Her Majesty, I am the only one in the entire empire who knows that pretending to be the Restoration Army is Dio's tactic!
As long as I master this line, I will have endless poisons available!
I'm such a clever and devilish girl!
"Bah, pah, I'm a proud demon, so I shouldn't be compared with inferior creatures like the devil!"
She immediately corrected her language sickness.
Soon, only the Queen of Eternal Night and Angelina were left in the government hall.
The queen knocked on the table, indicating that the right minister could speak.
Angelina looked at Her Majesty first and found that she seemed to be in a good mood.
Alas, for the sake of this empire, no matter how much they quarrel, her majesty has to force a smile and pretend that nothing happened. It's really hard.
Only I will feel sorry for Your Majesty.
Angelina sighed softly and said earnestly, "Your Majesty, I want to talk to you about Dio Brando."
"Oh?"
The Eternal Night Queen was both surprised and curious.
Do you want to say that you are worthy of being brother and sister, and you have not seen through Yi Rong, do you want me to take special care of your stinky brother in private?
