Boring!_2 “Why are we stopping here?
What happened?
Oh, isn’t that Miss Biqi?
What are you doing here?”
Having just dozed off, Milian lifted the curtain to look outside and saw Biqi and LiWen, who were blocking the road, right in front of her.
She already knew about the two girls’ connection with Lord Cooder from Adel and Ellen, so she naturally considered them as “one of us” and did not bear any hostility towards them just because they were from the Golden Flower Kingdom.
“Do you want to talk about your fiance?
Is it Senior Fraser?”
The Governor learned about what had just happened from her female guard driver, and she had never thought such a plot twist would actually happen to her.
She rubbed her forehead with a mix of amusent and annoyance, speaking in a tired voice,
“Get in, we can talk about it.”
“But won’t it affect your rest?”
Miss Biqi eyed the heavy, noble-glasse-concealing dark circles under Milian’s eyes and the unmistakable fatigue within them, tilting her head as she said,
“I used to think maybe you were just making excuses, but now I can see you really don’t have ti to waste on stuff like this.
How about we talk next ti I co over?”
“Once you head back to Anjou this ti, it’ll probably be after the Black Disaster ends before you could think about coming to Transia again.”
With a gentle tone, Milian replied,
“Even without considering your family factors, just taking into account the current scale of the Black Disaster which is still unknown, it’s very likely this could be our last eting.
I don’t know what you think.
But if I were in your position facing such a life-impacting issue, I wouldn’t wait until later to resolve it.
Co on.
There’s still so distance to where I live, and if it’s just a matter of Fraser, it won’t take too much ti.”
At Milian’s insistent invitation, Miss Biqi entered the carriage.
Lady LiWen, as her guard, remained outside sitting alongside the female Witch Hunter driver, while also pricking up her ears to eavesdrop on the conversation inside the carriage.
The Witch Hunter driver noticed this imdiately.
But she didn’t stop it, because she was eavesdropping too.
Not just her, the other three Witch Hunter guards including Norman had also casually maximized their perception, including Mr.
Morphy, who was currently pretending to patrol and stroll on the nearby street shadows, was doing the sa.
Upon learning through Reveno’s eyes about the imminent “battle for the man” between Biqi and Milian in the Blood Eagle Corridor, he had flown over imdiately intending to “watch the drama up close and strong.”
In this current capture, he was definitely on Milian’s side.
But Miss Biqi’s unique character and her relation by marriage and birth with the Blood Vulture Clan made her quite likable.
If the two girls truly ca to blows, Morphy would definitely intervene imdiately to avert “breeding animosity,” but until it escalated to hair-pulling and slapping, Morphy was all too happy to relish the drama.
Being a Governor in Transia was too dull, with a routine and tedious daily trajectory.
Apart from fencing with Necessary Evil, it was all about strategizing with Cui Si, cleaning up after the junior players, and endlessly pondering the future developnt of Transia, where his only entertainnt was watching others brag on forums.
Having finally encountered such an “explosive” event, I, Sir Morphy, am definitely going to feast on this lon till I’m stuffed!
However, to the disappointnt of Morphy and the others eavesdropping, no great cat fight broke out between the two girls after Biqi entered the carriage.
Instead, their conversation centered around laying out facts and reasoning.
Due to the currently tight supplies in Transia, even the Governor’s carriage was nothing fancy, at least in Biqi’s eyes, the carriages her six butlers used were a notch better than Milian’s.
But appearances didn’t represent what’s inside.
Especially concerning matters related to “power”!
Biqi was very clear that the red-haired girl before her, even two years her junior and showing signs of fatigue, held a position in Transia’s power structure akin to the pri minister of the Golden Flower Kingdom.
Even her own father would have to act humbly in front of such a person, so she didn’t start speaking right away, waiting instead for Milian to take the initiative.
“First of all, I want to make one thing clear,”
Milian picked up her water bottle.
It was a “thermos” made by one of the best blacksmiths in the small players, Hundred Forging Big Horse, who made it specifically for her and it always contained hot water.
People of Transia did not have the habit of drinking hot water, but Morphy thought it was simple and such small details, once discovered, could greatly improve relations between Milian and the small players.
The Governor unscrewed the lid of the bottle, took a sip of hot tea to relieve so fatigue, and looked at Biqi with an approachable smile saying,
“There’s nothing between Fraser and that goes beyond friendship, in fact, I’m more wary of him than anyone else.
Because my senior has grown into an outstanding collector of intelligence during the Ten Years War.
I’m quite aware that his approach to while he was tasked with coming to Transia to record the death story of Salockdale was purposeful.
Under such circumstances, I think you don’t need to worry about any special sparks flying between him and .
And on a personal level, I do quite admire him.
