Chapter 1393: Two outsiders

It seems that the North Kingdom must have threatened Prince Lucian, or made some promises... or perhaps both?

Staring at the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the North Kingdom for a few times, guessing the possible means of the other party, Queen Veronica didn't ask directly, but looked at the dark, thin, capable middle-aged man with her eyes fixed, reminding him calmly:

"Prince Lucian, this matter is of great importance to both our countries, so you don't have to make a decision now. You can wait a few days and send someone to contact Queen Saena to see what her attitude is. In addition..."

After glancing at the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the North Kingdom, Queen Veronica's volume raised slightly, as if she were speaking to Prince Lucian, and as if she were speaking to all the envoys:

"The interests of the kingdom may not be exactly the same as yours, but if the kingdom behind you loses what it should have obtained because of your irrational decision, then the result at that time is something we are all unwilling to see."

This reaction speed... amazing!

Looking at Queen Veronica, who only hesitated for a few seconds before guessing his private negotiation means and immediately started counter-measures, a flash of surprise crossed the eyes of the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the North Kingdom.

Although his way of negotiating with the envoys of various countries was not the same, the core idea had never changed. It was to temporarily strip the "envoy" from the kingdom behind them, and then constantly raise the level of the matter, so high that they could not bear the possible impact, thereby forcing them to remain silent.

If one wanted to solve the situation in front of them, most people's thinking was to meet moves with moves, reduce the pressure on the envoys of various countries, and then "downgrade" the importance of the matter to regain the support of allies.

And Queen Veronica not only didn't do this, but even added a handful of dry firewood to the fire, choosing to continue to escalate the situation. The deeper threat hidden in her words, which were not strong in tone, was even deeper.

If the envoys of the allied countries didn't express support for her, then although she couldn't resist those who wanted to come and share a piece of the cake, she held the knife to cut the cake and could completely make the retreating allies only get the smallest piece of the cake.

And the kingdoms that could become allies were generally intertwined, with deep interest connections, and it was not so easy to tear their faces directly.

So just as she couldn't actively attack the allied countries because of the lack of support from allies, it was also very difficult for the several allied countries that ate a big loss in the interest distribution link because they didn't stand out to support her to carry out direct retaliation.

And the legacy of the Kroke Kingdom was too huge. No kingdom could not covet it. Because of diplomatic mistakes, they lost such a big piece of cake, and someone must stand out to be responsible for this. As for the person responsible...

Who else could it be but us?!

After tasting the meaning in Queen Veronica's words, the envoys of various countries present tightened their hearts, feeling that a black pot that was heavy enough to smash an elephant to death had already hung silently on their foreheads, ready to be buckled down at any time.

They only knew that although the interests of the kingdom were not their own interests, if the kingdom lost the huge interests that should have been obtained, then what they had to lose was not just as simple as interests!

"Regarding the issue of the survivors of the Kroke Kingdom, I have something to say."

Soon, an envoy stood out, representing the kingdom behind him, and said with a serious face:

"For them who have lost their homes and have just settled down, there shouldn't be any more twists and turns. Maintaining the status quo is the most appropriate!"

"Seconded."

Seeing someone take the lead, another envoy immediately stood out and expressed his position:

"Since Princess Feliya, the only survivor in the royal family of the Kroke Kingdom, has recognized the current result, then we should express respect." "It should be so!"

Following Princess Veronica's light words, the envoys of the allied countries, who were originally hindered by the threats of the two major kingdoms and could not stand out, were hindered by even greater pressure and stood out one after another to express support for Queen Veronica.

And with the voices of these envoys, the originally one-sided situation was reversed, and even because the envoys were eager to express their position, the volume was relatively loud. Although they were the side with fewer people and weaker forces, the scene even vaguely had a sense of tit-for-tat.

Confirmed, politics is indeed something I don't understand.

Looking at the envoys who were arguing more and more fiercely in front of him, mocking each other with sharp tongues and quoting classics, Hearing Hearing Li Ang, who had a headache, couldn't help but raise his hand to rub his eyebrows, and then cast an admiring look at Queen Veronica.

If it were just a simple level of intelligence, he might not be worse than these people, and might even be higher, but unfortunately, these envoys were all mouth-cannon-specialized individuals selected from tens of millions of people.

And in addition to their own talent being outstanding enough, each of them had also undergone national-level training, as well as at least ten or twenty years of targeted experience. A sentence often contained three or four twists and turns, and he sometimes had to think for a long time before he could react to what they were satirizing and alluding to.

And Veronica was the youngest among them, but she dealt with these envoys who had their arguing ability points full with ease. No matter how sharp the questions she faced, she could easily deal with them. Sometimes she even replied with a casual sentence, which could make the other party's face turn white and red, and couldn't deal with it for a long time.

Honestly, if it weren't for the private banquet, but in a more formal place like a conference room where there were conditions and requirements for speaking, he felt that she alone could defeat all twenty-something envoys on the opposite side. It could be said that her ability in arguing... diplomatic consultation, was truly full.

"Hey!"

Just as Hearing Hearing Li Ang was watching the envoys who were arguing in a group, trying to analyze the meaning of their words to see if he could learn a "Diplomacy Proficiency" badge, a familiar voice suddenly sounded from behind.

"Hiccup... want a piece?"

After handing the tray in her hand to Hearing Hearing Li Ang, the female cleaner, who had eaten until her little belly was bulging, evaluated with satisfaction:

"Your wedding is small and stingy, but the pastry chef you found is a bit powerful. The cream tastes soft, greasy, and light, and the taste of the cake is also good. It's better than all the cakes I've eaten in the North... Hiccup... want to try? This taste is really good!"

Huh?

After taking the plate she handed over and looking at the cake inside, finding that the color and appearance of the cake were a bit familiar, Hearing Hearing Li Ang's heart couldn't help but tighten, then he turned his head sharply with the plate and looked at the wedding cake that Veronica had specially customized for this banquet.

Sure enough, the super-large cake tower, which was stacked nine layers high from bottom to top and was originally scheduled to be cut by the old man in armor and distributed to all important guests, had disappeared completely, leaving only two pieces of "residue" in the plate he was holding, which were not much bigger than a palm.

No... that was a cake prepared for 150 people! You ate it all by yourself?!
