Chapter 202 Half a sentence(4/4)
Oops.
Why do you feel like you've fallen into this little girl's trap again?
"Wait a minute, I've done this trick a long time ago... Could it be that you just said the same thing to Zhan or planned to say the same thing," Thales looked suspicious, "For example, 'Come on, Zhan, you little brat.
He is narrow-minded and ignorant, but you are the Lord of Jade City and the Duke of South Bank, so you should be more sensible than him, right?"
Hilley's expression froze.
"Of course not!" She said sternly, her face full of injustice, "Who do you think I am!"
That's right, she didn't say "little brat".
Thales felt a little uncomfortable under her righteous gaze, and he avoided her gaze:
"No, you don't understand. Your brother is the Lord of Emerald City and the one who has the initiative. If he doesn't surrender to the enemy and goes all the way to the dark side, then it will be useless for others to worry. The one in Emerald City
Disaster is doomed and the general trend is inevitable. All we can do is find ways to stop losses and clean up the mess."
"But you are the one who doesn't understand," Heeley denied. "Is the Emerald City hopeless? Don't forget, His Majesty has given you the power of discretion and emergency decision-making. Accept it and make good use of it! Even if it is destined, even if it is destined,
It’s the general trend!”
discretion, decision-making on the spur of the moment...
Thales thought of Kessel V and felt his shoulders become heavier.
How to judge? How to make a decision?
Thales shook his head and said: "Don't be naive, Shirley. In my experience, politics cannot be reversed with just one or two slogans..."
"Then just use half a sentence."
Thales was speechless.
Heilai took a deep breath, leaned his face out of the car window, and looked at him very seriously:
"Do you know the famous saying of your Bright Star royal family?"
"yes?"
"Someone once told me: What's really important is never the second half of the sentence."
Thales was startled when he heard this.
The second half of the sentence? That’s...
"So, Thales, don't give up, try again, 'discretion' and 'decision on the spur of the moment.'" Hilley stared at him, leaving him with nowhere to escape. "When fate is destined, discretion is the way to go."
It is very valuable, and it only makes sense to adapt to the situation when the general trend is the same."
Thales frowned and looked at Shilay.
"Don't forget, you are the famous North Star, a young hero who has dueled with King Nunn or King Charmaine. You have been able to turn the tide in the brutal and dangerous Exeter!"
Hilley's eyes were firm.
Please.
Don't just listen to the official propaganda.
Thales sighed:
"First of all, I have never dueled with them. On the contrary, most of the time in the Northland, I was fucked by those two unscrupulous bastards until I cried for my father and mother, beat the shit out of me, and played around in circles..."
"Like yesterday?"
Thales raised his gaze and found that Shilai had a smile on his lips and interesting eyes.
At that moment, he suddenly realized that the eldest lady in front of him was serious.
She won't allow herself to say no.
"Yes," Thales couldn't help but smile. He shook his head helplessly, "Just like yesterday."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
The march of the team gradually slowed down.
The venue where the generals were selected, or rather, the cage-like competition arena, appeared in their sight.
"Okay, listen to you, try again, I will talk to Zhan again," Thales put away his smile, "But let me declare in advance that this is the last time, once he..."
"Thank you, Thales," Hilley's eyes lit up, and he quickly interrupted him. He was extremely grateful while preventing the other party from saying any regrets, "As for Zhan and Emerald City, leave it to me."
For some reason, Thales seemed to have returned to the past, but it was not because of Lausanne II's supernatural powers, nor because of the tricks of the soul bone Jacques.
"Leave it to you?" Thales couldn't help but laugh, "Who do you think you are?"
Hilley also laughed.
"I am Cecilia Cavendill," she said, her smile bright and introspective, "the savior of the Emerald City."
Thales trembled slightly.
At that moment, he didn't feel like he was in the Emerald City, which was surrounded by layers of fog and treacherous clouds, but more like he was in Longxiao City, which was full of crises and the situation was over.
He looked at the bright-eyed Xi Lai in front of him, as if he was seeing another himself.
Thales was silent for a while.
"No, you're not."
Hilley's eyes moved.
"Cecilia Kelvindir, she is just a young lady with political marriage significance, even though no one can match her west of the Blood Gate Fortress," Thales sighed, "But you, you are Shilai."
Hilley was startled.
Thales looked at the setting sun on the horizon and said with emotion:
"The unexpected great magician——Hile Waiyana."
Xi Lai's expression changed: "What's this name?"
"How do I know? You took it!"
But Thales soon knew that he was overjoyed.
Because after they arrived at the venue and saw Duke Zhan with an angry look on his face (due to Thales and Hille being together), Miss Cecilia's first words made her brother suddenly change his expression.
"Listen Zhan En, I know that you have turned the Emerald City into a piece of shit now. So, listen carefully to what the little brat and I are going to say next. You are not allowed to interrupt, you are not allowed to refute, and you are not allowed to leave..."
In front of everyone, Shilai, who was dressed up in sunshine and lively, rushed up to her brother, grabbed his brother's arm, and like every lovely sister in the world's ideals, she used the gentlest voice and uttered the most touching words:
"And if you dare to show me any shame, even just a little bit, I swear, no matter how many people are watching around me, I will immediately take off my skirt and rush into the election with only a tricolor fleur-de-lis badge.
The center of the venue will be..."
Under the unbelievably frightened gazes of Thales and Zhan, Shilai had a rare smile that was sweet and gentle:
Chapter completed!
