I Married the Beautiful Female Protagonist In Order To Survive - Chapter 927



43. The Queen loves to laugh so much, she must be really dumb, right?

As a genius of the Great Ying Empire, and with little contact with Queen Louise IV, Louise XXIII had seen the Queen’s smile many times. After all, besides always having a smiling face, the Queen either spent her afternoons happily drinking tea and laughing with her servants or was bouncing around preparing for some “concert.”

Although Louise XXIII couldn’t understand why such a person could become a queen, she had to obey on the surface. However, in her heart, she had long regarded Queen Louise IV as a naive and somewhat silly girl. Isn’t it said that people who like to laugh are terrifying when they get angry? Then just don’t make her angry.

But for some reason, now, kneeling on the ground, Louise XXIII looked up at the Queen’s usual innocent smile and felt a bit of… fear?

Even Louise XXIII herself couldn’t understand what was going on. She shook her head and quickly answered the Queen’s question.

“I… don’t know those two people.”

“Mm~ Mm~, that’s strange. You clearly don’t know them, so why did the people of Rosia name them?”

“Coincidence, coincidence, maybe that Leia just got lucky and found someone with some mediocre skills.”

Louise XXIII didn’t dare to be careless. After all, if she didn’t explain, the Queen might think that “any random person could defeat Louise XXIII,” and that would be the end!

“Do you really not know them?”

The Queen repeated.

“I swear on my family’s name, Your Majesty, I absolutely don’t know any of them! Besides, didn’t they claim to be from Zerora? You should look for them over there.”

“……”

No response, followed by a silence that almost suffocated Louise XXIII! For a moment, she seemed to see the Queen in front of her, with all traces of “emotion” disappearing from her face. But when Louise XXIII rubbed her eyes to confirm the Queen’s attitude that had almost made her hands and feet go cold…

She looked up and saw the Queen’s smiling face.

“Sorry~ XXIII, it seems I wrongly accused you~”

The Queen clapped her hands and apologized in annoyance. Louise XXIII finally breathed a sigh of relief: now the Queen would no longer doubt her abilities or think she had messed up the Queen’s orders!

As for whether there was a problem with the potion, and who those master and servant were, that black pot could be left for Moriarty to carry, it had nothing to do with her!

Having shirked all responsibility, Louise XXIII stood up in a good mood and met the Queen’s gaze.

“Twenty-three, leave this matter to me~”

“Then please make sure to investigate Moriarty’s ingredients! I suspect she’s behind all of this!”

“I will~”

The queen tilted her head and smiled, “So, Twenty-three, don’t stay cooped up at home every day. Go out and socialize. The noble children in the royal city heard that you haven’t been eating or drinking for several days, and they are very worried~ If I hadn’t stopped them, they would have broken down your door~ Remember to thank them properly for their concern~”

Louie Twenty-three nodded proudly. What does it mean to be excellent? This is what it means to be excellent! This is the treatment that the proud daughter of the British Empire deserves! Enjoying the adulation is only natural. As for thanking them, I’ll deal with that later~

“Twenty-three, the most important thing in life is to be happy~ Don’t let any rumors affect you. Twenty-three, you are the best~ I’ll be going now. Make sure to eat well, so you can recover and become beautiful again~”

With that, the queen picked up her parasol, smiled, and said goodbye under the gaze of the fully “recovered” Louie Twenty-three, then left the room with a light step.

Then…

After leaving Louie Twenty-three’s residence, the sound of high heels on the ground slowed down. At some point, Moriarty, dressed in a white robe, was already walking beside her. Behind them, dozens of people in white robes followed.

“Go and inform all the newspapers we control in and around the royal city, and in all territories of similar scale, to spread the news about Louie Twenty-three drinking ‘sports drinks’ all these years. For the organizations we don’t control, Moriarty, please use your ‘noble’ identity and bring evidence to expose it.”

The raised parasol’s edge covered the upper half of the queen’s face.

“Louie Twenty-three knows nothing, so she’s useless now. Dispose of her~☆ What, Moriarty, do you still pity such a person? You seemed quite sorry for her just now~”

“I do pity a dog with little time left to live. That’s normal human compassion, Your Majesty.”

“Ahaha★ You’re even more ruthless than I am~ Oh, by the way, help me prepare an apology conference for ‘the British Empire’s genius fraud.’ Although I don’t want to bow my head, it’s the best way to create chaos and win people’s hearts now~”

“It’s possible, but without the ‘genius,’ what do we do about Russia?”

“Disassociate ourselves from Twenty-three, and you go apologize~ As for how to disassociate, make sure Twenty-three doesn’t speak… Moriarty, handle it as you see fit~”

Ignoring Moriarty’s annoyed clicking of her tongue, the queen smiled and said, “We caused the conflict with Russia as a ‘means,’ not an end. Now that we have the material for big news, there’s no need to provoke that electric mouse in the north anymore.”

A prosperous land, a powerful empire, and such a powerful thing needs control. Since it needs control, some “uncontrollable” dangerous elements must be eliminated.

The queen had always thought this way.

For example, now, some unexpected things had entered her home. By comparison, the queen even felt that dealing with Zeraora was no longer important.

“Something happened at the birthday party, Zerora will definitely delay leaving, Moriarty, please ask everyone to wait a bit longer. By the way, if possible, accompany me for some ‘overtime’ recently~ I’ll pay you for the extra work~”

“…What happened that you think is more important than Zerora’s escape? Ah… those two?”

“That’s right~ It’s those two. Regardless of the fact that the elf is obviously superior to Louis XXIII in strength, in the subsequent part, since Louis XXIII said she didn’t know the other party, then… I suspect that Louis XXIII’s ‘power failure’ at that time was caused by that gentleman~”

“His every move doesn’t look like an ordinary country boy, even when he saw some of my ‘things’ here, he wasn’t nervous at all… He seems to be looking for me, not Louis XXIII~ Isn’t this super interesting? The stronger the power, the greater the sense of achievement after controlling it~ At least much higher than Louis XXIII~”

“So…”

Turning around, the queen clasped her hands together and made a request to Moriarty~

“Please, Mo-chan~ After figuring out their background, find an opportunity to bring him here★~”

As for whether this is a request or an order, only the person involved would know.
