Gold coin is justice

Chapter 947: Gossip

Idle is also idle, and Ai Luo also agreed right now.

Then Natalie led the way, and Airo followed behind.After passing through several guard posts and courtyards, the two finally reached a lake pavilion and sat down in the pavilion.

"Don't mind the one just now. This little Nizi is our favorite little ancestor. She is only sixteen years old this year. The third princess of the Blue Bay Empire-Liquor Bilan. How about? Isn't it the rumor? The same?"

As she walked, Natalie started to complain about her situation.Ai Luo slapped his hands and said: "I have long heard that our three princesses act in an eclectic style, and their usual costumes are also very...personal! I saw it today, and I saw it with my own eyes!"

The maid on the side poured tea to the two and brought fruit plates.Natalie happily pushed these fruit plates to Ai Luo, and she treated Ai Luo to eat more like her favorite brother.

Ai Luo picked up a round-looking fruit and asked curiously: "Sister Natalie, what is this? What a beautiful fruit. The small round fruit can still be exposed to the sun. Light through!"

Natalie smiled and said, "You don't know about this? This is just picked from the small island on the other side of the coastline in the past two years. It is a kind of fruit called'lychee'. It's very sweet. You try it."

Ai Luo put the fruit in his mouth and bit it lightly.In an instant, the sweet juice spurted out of the white and tender flesh, almost not shocking Airo.

"This... this is really sweet! Why is it so sweet?"

Seeing Ai Luo's exaggerated expression, Natalie also laughed cheerfully and said: "How? Sister didn't lie to you! Let me tell you, these lychees are not so white and smooth. There is an ugly and ugly shell on the outside, but the servants have already peeled the shell before it is served. I can guarantee that even if you see the lychee with the shell, you may not recognize it at once."

Ai Luo looked at the soft and smooth fruit, covering his mouth, trying to eat all the juice in his mouth, only then spit out a small core and placed it on the table.

After thinking a little, Airo couldn't help but say: "Sister Natalie, where did this thing called lychee... come from? Is it easy to plant? Or, let's try to plant a little too?"

The maid on the side picked up the handkerchief, grabbed a lychee and put it in Natalie's mouth.The imperial concubine smiled and said: "It's not that no one has thought about it, but the fruit is really delicate. After leaving the island to the south, it can't be planted no matter what. Moreover, these lychees are very delicate. Transported over immediately. If you leave the branch for more than three days, the taste will become unpalatable. The thousands of kilometers of road are really thanks to my husband thinking of ways to make such troublesome things to please me."

Originally, Airo wanted to reach out for one again.

But when he heard these words, the hand he had originally wanted to extend couldn't help but retract.After thinking about it, he took a handkerchief out of his arms, carefully wrapped the nuclei he had eaten, and put it in his arms.

"What? You want to try it too?"

There was a smile on Natalie's face--

"I heard that you went to work in a guild, but I didn't expect you to still work in the farm?"

Ai Luo smiled and said: "I know some friends, they are very good at growing things, so they want to try. But sister, how is your health recently? Now your belly is getting bigger and bigger, maybe Run around outside again, right?"

When it comes to her belly, Natalie is immediately full of excitement and pride.She gently stroked her abdomen and smiled and said, "Don't worry, since last time, let alone go out to see our people, even going out of the castle has been absolutely forbidden. Alas...some At that time, I felt a little sulking."

Ai Luo poured a cup of hot water for Natalie and said with a smile: "It's better to be careful. How can there be a pregnant woman running around with your stomach held up in the world?"

Natalie put on a very stubborn appearance and said: "What's wrong with my big belly? He is usually busy with official duties. I will inspect our people on his behalf to see how our people live. , Is there any poverty, is there any sense of fairness and justice, is life happy and healthy? Only when the people live well, his work will be easier, right? And—"

She lowered her head, rubbed her stomach with great pain, and smiled--

"The child in my stomach is also the future emperor of this country. I want him to learn how to be a good emperor from an early age, and let him, like his father, lead our country to a brighter future!"

As she talked and chatted, Natalie's interest also grew.After talking about her children, she also started to pull Ai Luo like an ordinary woman, and began to complain that her husband just cares about work all day.At the same time, they will also talk about some interesting things about the time when I was with Ai Luo, which made the two laugh.

However, Natalie’s character is more or less unwilling to be restrained. After talking for a while, she feels that the maids around her are very boring, so she let these maids go far, just keep I and Ai Luo were having afternoon tea and chatting at the Huxin Pavilion.

"Oh... Sometimes, I really want to make waves."

Natalie frowned slightly, took a sip of hot tea, exhaled and said slowly—

"As a prince, he naturally has the burden of being a prince, and I also know that he is thinking about making the Blue Bay Empire stronger and safer. Let ordinary people live better. But he has been busy like this. , I am really worried about his body..."

Ai Luo picked up a grape and put it in his mouth to chew, and said: "I know that His Royal Highness is very busy, but every successor to the throne should be like this. Thinking of me, just managing a guild feels exhausted. Yes, but this is managing a country."

When she heard the word guild, Natalie rolled her eyes slightly and said, "Ariel, after this year's battle is over, you will disband the guild, right?"

Ai Luo was taken aback for a moment, and spit out the grape seeds in his mouth: "This...why?"

Natalie sighed and said, "You are a girl from a family, and you will marry in after the Holy Eve Festival is over. I have never heard that people who marry into the royal family will run a guild. Such a small guild."

In this regard, Ai Luo just laughed twice, without comment.

"Of course, I wouldn't tell you this if it was really just an interest. But it's better to quit things like guilds as soon as possible. Because by next year, Menglang should formulate a series of policies to abolish guilds. ."

If the persuasion just now only made Aylor laugh a little bit, then the news that I got now is that Aylor's original smile on the corner of his mouth can no longer be maintained.

But soon, in his mind, he recalled the guild cancellation plan that the president of the Purgatory Guild had said.

"It turns out that the rumors in the market are true?"

Ai Luo nodded slightly and said.

Natalie again picked up a lychee and put it in her mouth, and said, "Is it already spread among the people? Well, that's it. My husband has been going on and on since he became the prince in the past two years. Northwest. The friction between the Hunter empire and us is also getting worse. Therefore, he just wants to reform all day long."

Ai Luo nodded and said, "Reform? Is this a good thing?"

Natalie sighed slightly, and then said with a wry smile: "Reform is of course a good thing, but sometimes I often worry about him being too hasty."

"Now that the emperor father hasn't really returned to his throne, he can't wait to move a lot of things. Let's talk about the guilds you run, not to mention others. He has been talking about why the defense work of the empire needs you. Are these purely commercial adventurers operating? It is also said that even the remote imperial borders should be stationed by the imperial army instead of letting you adventurers take on defense work."

"Everyone has been persuading him, saying that reducing the military expenditure of the empire and entrusting defense to your commercial guilds can save money. If you don’t talk to him directly, just find me and hope that I will give My husband has no fewer than ten people who blow the pillow wind."

"Oh... but ah, he has always been persistent, even a little tough. Resolutely must take back the defense rights of the empire. He also said that if you adventurers still want to do adventurer work, then join the Imperial Army. Obey the management of the imperial army. If you don’t want to, then disarm and return to the fields, go back to farming, and stop walking around with weapons in the name of adventurers. To some extent, you adventurers are also social instability. One of the factors."

If Ai Luo did not run an adventurer's guild, then he would probably agree with this idea of ​​the crown prince!

Military power is a very important part of any country. As a result of such an important power, all regions have their own defense rights because of the cost, which is inherently dangerous.

But... if you really want to regain military power, taking adventurers is probably not the real key factor.

"Does His Royal Highness still want to take back the military power of lords everywhere?"

Inadvertently, Airo said softly.

At that moment, Airo saw a touch of surprise and alert flashing across Natalie's face.
