Why didn’t the number of bookmarks increase? Oh my supreme-ruler, please help me, I don’t want to be forgotten!

Laura paced back and forth in the study room restlessly. To her, Boff had brought back the worst news possible.

She pitied the Buda family, but now that Boff had failed to complete the mission, it was definitely bad news for her. It meant that the Versailles family might have internal strife.

If it wasn’t for this, the Versailles family would have been in chaos at any other time. However, at this time, it was really a matter of life and death. This didn’t only affect the Versailles family, but also the millions of civilian families in the Versailles Duchy.

Kun Zheng was frowning as he sat in his study. He really did not know what to do in this situation. They wanted to get involved but if they did not do it well, they would be caught in this Whirlpool and sink deeper and deeper.

But the problem was that if they didn’t participate, as long as there was a result, they would be the first to suffer. So, they could only participate.

However, participation was different from participation. The time and method of participation were the most important. If the opportunity, method, and method were right, not only could they protect themselves, but they could also obtain the greatest benefits.

At this moment, a servant ran in from outside and bowed to Laura. &Quot; “Young miss, we just received news that the Sinya family and a few other large families have already made their move. However, they did not increase the price of the food. Instead, they sent people to contact the second and third elders of the Versailles family.”

Lola frowned, waved her hand, and said, ” &Quot; go down and continue your investigation. If there’s any new information, let me know immediately. &Quot; The servant bowed and left.

…..

Laura turned to kun Zheng and asked,”Grandpa kun Zheng, what are Xinya and the others trying to do?” Could it be that they want to help second elder or third elder to the top?”

Kun Zheng nodded and said, ” I’m afraid so. If the second or third elder really formed an alliance with them, they could even give up on the food price increase this time. As long as they can help one of the two elders to rise to the position, they would receive the elder’s full support. By then, they would be able to dominate the entire market in the Versailles Duchy. These guys are really shrewd. &Quot;

Lola frowned and said,”then what should we do?” We can’t just wait like this, right? Isn’t that too disadvantageous for us?”

“Wait?” kun Zheng’s eyes glinted. “Of course we can’t just wait like this, that will only make us more and more passive. In the end, we might even be squeezed out by them. Don’t expect them to be grateful to us just because we helped the Versailles family with the food problem. It’s useless. Those guys won’t care whether you help them or not. As long as there are enough benefits, everything can be sold. What we need to do now is to get in touch with someone from the Versailles family. We must support him, even if he can’t take the throne. We also need to let him have a say in the Versailles clan. Only then can we keep our business.”

Laura was stunned and asked,”who?” I’m afraid that the Xinya family has already made contact with the second and third elders. It’s too late for us to go now.”

Kun Zheng smiled. &Quot; don’t forget, there’s still someone in the Versailles family. This person used to have power, but in order to help the Buda family, his power was suppressed. Isn’t this a good opportunity now? ”

Laura was taken aback. She immediately recalled who kun was referring to. It was the nominal head of the Versailles family, the Grand Duke of the Duchy of Versailles, Ivan.

Ivan’s power wasn’t much weaker than the first elder’s, but because he was young and didn’t have much experience in politics, plus he helped the Buda family, his power was divided and suppressed by the first elder. During this period of time, he lived in seclusion and didn’t care about the world. He had completely become a wooden man, a decoration, so Laura didn’t think of him at first.

Kun was looking at Laura and smiled. &Quot; “Recently, Ivan has been completely quiet. People seem to have forgotten about his existence, but isn’t this where he’s brilliant? Did he really not have any power at all? No, although his power has been greatly reduced, it has not been completely obliterated. He still has a part of his power. It’s just that he has been hiding too much recently, so people have forgotten about his existence.”

Laura thought for a moment and said, ” I think so. Ever since the fall of the Buda family, Ivan has been very low-key. He’s been so low-key that people have forgotten about him or treated him as a decoration. If he still has power in his hands, we can help him. He might be able to rise to the top again. &Quot;

&Quot; that’s exactly what I meant. It’s best for us to split up now. Miss, please do not show yourself when it comes to meeting with Ivan. It’s too obvious and too obvious. I’ll handle it. You should go and meet Mr. Zhao Hai now and explain the situation here to him so that he can be prepared. &Quot; kun Zheng smiled.

Lola nodded. &Quot; okay, I’ll go right away. I’ll leave Ivan to Grandpa kun Zheng. &Quot; Then, he led ni ‘er out.

Just as all of the major families in Kass city were keeping an eye on the Versailles family, the people suddenly discovered that Laura had left the city in a carriage, and was heading straight for Rocky Mountain.

When Laura left the city, those big families heaved a sigh of relief. To be honest, they had already formed a grudge with Laura, but they didn’t dare to touch her. It wasn’t just because she was a member of the magicians of the magicians ‘family, but also because she had an unfathomable black magician behind her.

These large families knew that the Versailles family had sent people to deal with Zhao Hai. It was impossible for the upper echelons of the family to keep any secrets. It was because they knew that Zhao Hai was terrifying.

Qielan was a well-known 8th-tier master on the continent. He was also the nemesis of the black magicians, the White Magician. He had brought many powerful magicians with him, but under such circumstances, they had been annihilated without a sound. Zhao Hai’s strength was truly terrifying.

They all knew about the relationship between Laura and Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai had saved Laura’s life and then asked Laura to help him sell his products. They had already formed an alliance. Under such circumstances, offending Laura was equivalent to offending Zhao Hai, and Zhao Hai was the black magician they didn’t want to offend.

These people thought that Laura had gone to find Zhao Hai to tell him about the current situation in Casar city. They were not worried at all. As long as it did not hinder their plan, it was fine.

Laura’s trip out of the city would not only inform Zhao Hai of the situation in Casar city, but also attract the attention of the major families. This would make it easier for kun Zheng to get close to Ivan.

This time, Laura moved even faster than before. She took less than half a day to reach the foot of Rocky Mountain. Zhao Hai had also received the news. As soon as Laura reached the foot of the mountain, green immediately brought her up the mountain.

After Zhao Hai led Laura to the living room and sat down, he did not stand on ceremony and said directly: “Miss Laura, you’re here for the Versailles family right? I heard that the Versailles clan seems to be in some trouble?”

Laura had already experienced Zhao Hai’s intelligence gathering ability, so she wasn’t surprised. She only smiled bitterly, ” “I’m afraid it’s not a small problem, but a big one.”

This made Zhao Hai stunned. He did not know much about the inside story of the Versailles family. Even green and Merlin did not know.

“It’s just breaking off the engagement, and then you wanted to kill someone but failed, right?” Zhao Hai asked, puzzled. Is there any trouble?”

&Quot; it would be great if it’s really like what you said, Sir, ” Lola said with a bitter smile. &Quot; you don’t know, Sir, but the Versailles family might have internal strife this time. &Quot;

“Really?” Zhao Hai frowned. Tell me more about it. ”

Lola nodded and said, ” &Quot; the patriarch of the Versailles family used to have the most power, followed by the Council of Elders. The purpose of the Council of Elders is to monitor the patriarch. If the patriarch made a major mistake, the Council of Elders has the power to impeach the patriarch. However, the current patriarch of the Versailles family, Duke Ivan, doesn’t have much power. When Ivan became the patriarch, he was still very young. On the other hand, the great elder of the Council of Elders, Caesar, has been in the Versailles family for many years and has a very strong influence.”Due to his inexperience, Ivan’s power was reduced by a lot. Later, I heard that Grand Duke Ivan had a good relationship with the Buda family. When the Buda family was in trouble, Ivan secretly helped them. Because of this, his power was reduced once again. Now, he doesn’t have much power. The power of the Versailles family is concentrated in the hands of the three elders of the Council of Elders. Among them, the great elder Caesar has the most power, while the second elder youyin and the third elder Sayes have a little less power.” Lola paused and looked at Zhao Hai.

Zhao Hai’s face was hidden under his magic robe, while Grimm’s face was covered by his armor. Naturally, she could not see his face, so she did not notice the shocked expressions on Zhao Hai and Grimm’s faces.

This was especially true for Grimm. He had always hated Ivan because of his friendship with Adam’s father. When his family was in trouble, the Versailles family came to hit them when they were down. He thought it was Ivan who had ordered him to do so, but now he knew that Ivan had paid such a huge price to help them.

Seeing that the two of them didn’t say anything, Laura continued, ” &Quot; this time, the Buda family’s Chief Steward suddenly appeared in Kass city and wanted to break off the engagement with the Versailles family. Caesar saw that the Buda family’s Chief Steward, Grimm, was already a peak level eight powerhouse. He was afraid that Grimm would break through to level nine in the future and take revenge on them, so he wanted to ask the family’s Guardian, baphir, to kill Grimm. However, he did not expect Grimm to have an ancient magic tool on him, and Grimm actually escaped. After that, baphir went to the blackearth wilderness to hunt down the Buda family, but he could not find him.”This has put Caesar in a very passive position. It must be known that it’s a big deal for a family to take action against their Guardian. This time, it was Caesar who strongly advocated for it, but it didn’t succeed in the end. This is a huge blow to Caesar, and the other large trading companies in Casas city took the opportunity to contact youyin and Sayes. It seems that internal strife in the Versailles family is inevitable.”
