After the Legend Chapter 233: Proposal
What are you talking about? "Minna thought it was a little funny, "I can no longer be your subordinate"
Jada's attitude is very serious: "I'm not asking you to return to Nuojia as my subordinate, I mean... just like a partner, go back with me as an equal friend, can't you?"
"Equal friend? You don't have a fever, right? Could it be the poison attack?" Minna stopped stirring, reached out to touch Jada's forehead, and was stopped by him: "I'm very clear now Minna , I need you, you come back with me"
Seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, Ming Na became serious: "How is this possible? You are going to be a king in the future, can you really tolerate the existence of a so-called equal friend? I was in Easter. It's fine, and I don't have to do a mission. Why should I go back with you? Besides, my father is Lord Maiton now, and there is only a mountain away from Nuojia. If I really go, my father's situation is not very embarrassing. Do you? You want the king to be suspicious of my father?!"
She glared at him, turned back to look at the fire, and ignored him. Jada pondered for a moment before saying, "As long as your king doesn't know, it's alright. It's actually very convenient to go from Maiton to Normonka. …”
"You don't understand me?!" Minna was a little angry, "I said I couldn't do this, because my father was guarding the border between the two countries, and I quietly ran to your side, who would believe that our family didn't Collusion with you?!"
"What if it's an honest and open relationship?" Jada asked, "What if your king himself agreed?"
"Impossible, I'm a girl, and I can't be a minister!"
"Not the minister, but as my partner!" Jada blurted out, and was immediately taken aback by his own words, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was a matter of course, and when he was relieved, he smiled, "Yes, that's right, marriage is not necessarily limited to members of the royal family. As long as your king agrees, you can also be my wife, and we can be together in good faith"
Ming Na froze and tied her tongue: "What... what... what? Wife?! Are you crazy?!"
"I'm not crazy!" Jada excitedly said, "You are my best wife. You are smart and capable. You understand Nuojia, understand my situation, and understand every decision I make! You can give me a lot in politics. The suggestion of land use can also ease the relationship between me and Your Majesty. You don't know that His Majesty has always mentioned you over the past few years. He has hired several potions from Shaonan, but he always thinks that you are the best. He trusts you! If you When I become my wife, I can deal with those who are hostile to me without worrying about someone slandering me in front of your majesty! We will be the most outstanding king and queen Noga, and because of us, we will become the most powerful and prosperous on the continent. country!”
Ming Na was stunned when she heard it, but she felt a little resentful in her heart: "What about after you become stronger? What are you going to do? Are you going to invade other countries to unify the continent?!" The more she thought about it, the more angry she became: "You can't let go Your own ambition! I said if you have time and spare time, you might as well think about how to manage your own country well! Even though there are a lot of troubles in the country that have not subsided, but you are always playing other people's ideas! Last time, you just wiped out the Prince Mario faction. I just wanted to beat our Easter and the result? Was taken advantage of by Moyu! There are still a lot of careerists in the country waiting to pull you down! You just quelled the rebel forces in the mainland and came to our Easter for what? You want Do you want to annex Weisha? It’s a pity that you didn’t expect your uncle’s family to hold you back and want to take your place! If you honestly focus on your own country’s internal affairs, how can they have a chance to make trouble?!”
Jada was a little ugly when she said that the sore face in the center: "Do you think I'm just trying to realize my ambitions?! I told you before that Nuojia is short of resources, but the population is getting more and more us. The local people cannot survive and must find more arable land and more resources! Now because there are many people who died in the war and you have aided from East and Shaonan, the food shortage is not obvious, but we already have land in the mainland. More than 30% of the land is polluted by monsters. It won't take a few years for us to grow food! Why do you think I even want a barren land like Weisha? Because most of the land there is at least not seriously polluted! There are a few The oasis can still produce some food. If it can occupy the land in the south, it will be much more convenient to buy the food in the south of Shao! We can’t always rely on you and the south of Shao for charity, can our country still have dignity?!”
"Don't use dignity as an excuse!" Ming Na said angrily, "There are many places where resources are scarce but there are many people who can survive, and you are not the only Nuojia! 80% of the whole country in Weisha can survive in deserts, why can't you ?! Near the southeast of Xikedi and the other side of the Toure Mountains, the land in Maicheng is not much worse than our Meton, but you only use it for grazing but don't pay attention to farming! You have so many mountains except for reclamation. You can't do other places if you grow noodles? Those places won't be polluted!"
"What can we do with them even if they're not polluted? Don't you know how barren those mountains are?"
"Meiton also has a lot of wasteland and mountains. Except for the rain in Binoga, it's not much stronger, but we have a good time." Ming Na said, "Let me tell you how we did it. My father became Mei. After Lord Dun, because the pasture would be consumed, the number of livestock was limited, and the grazing area was stipulated according to the season, and he was required to replant the pasture twice a year. He grows herbs in the mountains and forests in places unsuitable for farming, harvests them, and then sends them to the herbal market in Xike to sell! He asked the locals to grow fruits and flowers that are popular with people in the central and southern regions, sell them at a high price, and then buy good food and go back to us Maiton produces cheap potatoes, corn and sorghum. Except for the food that is left to feed the livestock and wine, they are all sold to Maicheng! Our men can work in the fields, go out to small businesses, or join the army for drills, our women the elderly and
Compare you to weaving at home, raising chickens and ducks, or herding livestock? All the men have gone to join the army, otherwise they will fight and race horses everywhere. Women, old people and children do all the work in the fields. When grazing, they look for grassy places. After eating, they look for them again. Why do you think you can't make it through? If you only know how to consume but don’t know how to replenish, no amount of resources will become scarce! Not to mention that you already own a quarter of the continent, even if you occupy the entire continent, the land will be barren and resources will be scarce, and the people will not be able to survive! "
After such a long series of words, she was a little out of breath, but she still stared at Jada with wide eyes, not to be outdone, her cheeks were flushed with anger, and it was a little more moving than usual
Jada stared at her at first, but gradually calmed down and couldn't help smiling: "What's wrong with us? We started quarreling again because of this topic..." He gently pulled Minna over He raised his hand and said softly: "I don't understand this, can you teach me? Look, you are so smart, you will immediately be swayed by the party, Song Yi, Na, and your heart. Wei Miao enzyme?br>
Minna shook off his hand with a headache: "Don't you understand? I've already said it, I can't be your wife!"
Jada just smiled and didn't seem to take her words to heart. Ming Na got angry and said, "Even if you think we are suitable, what about the people in your country? Will they agree with me? Junia has been engaged to you since childhood. , Isn't it also because of the poor family background that you let others laugh at you?! I'm the daughter of a viscount, and my background is only a little better than Junia, not to mention I'm a foreigner! Don't take me for a fool!"
Jada's face changed: "I despise Junia? Where did you hear the nonsense?!"
"Isn't it?" Ming Na raised her chin, "This is what the Nuojia merchants from Maicheng said. You are so old, it was rumored that you were going to have a wedding. Gao, the matter is gone. I only heard about it not long ago, you sent her to Saint Vatican, even if you don't like her anymore, she has known you for so many years, how can you be so hated and let her live forever Living alone?!" Thinking back then, Junia was also a young and beautiful girl. Although she was a little spoiled, she was always sincere to Jada. She had fallen to this point, and Ming Na felt again that Jada would never would be a good marriage partner
Jeda gasped for a while, turned her head and walked to the window, clutching the window frame tightly, bowing her head and not speaking. When Ming Na saw this, she thought he had been told by herself and felt ashamed, so she flattened her mouth and looked back at the pot. The medicine inside, seeing that the face gradually began to change, I hurriedly sprinkled the last herbs in it
The room was silent except for the crackling of the fire and the tumbling of the concoction, and after a while, Minna heard Jada speak, "If it was someone else, I would never have said it. , I only tell you one person"
Minna looked back suspiciously: "What?"
"I don't despise Junia," Jada said in a deep voice, carrying her behind her back, "Because of my busy work, I have never been able to spare time to get married, and even she has been waiting for me year after year. I feel sorry for her. When I was planning to invite His Majesty to preside over the wedding, the etiquette officer had already started preparations for a simple wedding, but I didn't expect..." He paused, and continued with some difficulty: "One night, I finished my affairs outside the city ahead of schedule and changed the plan temporarily. , went back to the castle to see Junia, only to find...she hugged Shade tightly...weeping, begging him to take her away...I only knew then that...they had an affair..."
Minna opened her mouth and recalled her experience back then, and for some reason, she wasn't surprised at all, giving Junia and Shade a chance, wasn't it Jada? Everything had been foreshadowed, and Jada seemed to be sad, and she closed her mouth tightly.
"I discovered their secret, Junia actually knelt in front of me and said that she was just used to me, but what she wanted was the love and consideration of an ordinary man for an ordinary woman, this kind of love for me I couldn't give it, so I asked me to let her go and let her be with Shade who really cares and loves her and Shade actually... Although he didn't say anything, I was really angry!"
Jada took a few breaths before continuing, "The news of the wedding has already spread, if it is cancelled at this time, I don't know what rumors will be caused, so I didn't promise them, only said I would consider it, and then let The etiquette officer suspends the preparations for the wedding. I originally planned to arrange for them to leave after the wind has passed. After all, they are people who have been with me since childhood. Even if I hate them again, I will do something to them... But it didn't take long for me to leave. When I was out on inspection, I met an assassin... Shed was seriously injured in order to save me, and soon... He begged me to forgive Junia before he died, he said he couldn't take care of her, and eliminating me would make her happy..."
He turned around and laughed at himself: "What does he think of me?! A woman who betrayed me because she fell in love with another man, will I still let her be my wife?! Why should she be? A queen?!"
Ming Na swallowed her saliva: "Then..."
"Junia cried very sadly afterwards and told me that she was going to keep her chastity for Xie De" Jada shrugged, "I agreed, and in order to clear the way for her, I persuaded His Majesty to take her as an adopted daughter, and then sent her to the Vatican. When she was leaving, she was very grateful to me."
Minna was silent. From Jada's tone, she could tell that he was not without feelings for his ex-fiancee, which is why he was so angry. Although his actions were only in accordance with Junia's request, it was not a bad idea. There is no sign of revenge. Junia is still very young. If she stays in Nuojia, she may be able to marry someone else in the future, but if she goes to Vatican, even if she changes her mind, it will be too late. Minna thinks of Alex's little aunt, Ms. Rosalind. , didn't she just regret being a saint, but couldn't get away?
But looking at Jada, who still has resentment in her eyes, Minna didn't mention this. She stirred the potion in the pot and saw that it had turned into a transparent blue. She hurriedly removed the pot and poured the potion into the pot. A crystal cup
The medicine is ready, drink it while it's hot"
Jeda wakes up from her contemplation and sees that the potion has cooled down to the point where she can drink it, she warms her heart, and bows her head to take it: "Thank you"
Watching him drink the potion, Minna asked him to lie down and rest for a while, and promised to make a few more potions when he got home for him to bring back to Normonka to Jedal to hold Minna's hand: " Why didn't you mention my request? Did Junia make you angry?"
"It's not your fault that I didn't get mad at Junia" Minna pulled away, "but it doesn't mean that even if you don't think there's something wrong with my origin, there's still a huge gap between us.
Don't forget, you haven't given up the dream of unifying the continent in your heart, and that means you will one day be hostile to East, so what should I do? You say that I am your most suitable wife Ren Xun, but have you ever thought about me? do i like you? What kind of life do I want to live? Marry you, what can I get? Do I feel pain when your plans conflict with my home country and loved ones? "
Jada was stunned: "Minna..."
"Even if you didn't attack our East, just because I was from the Security Agency, would you really not doubt me? Would you think, what I said to you and what I did, was inquiring Your secrets? Did I help East to plot against you? Is my every move planned by the Security Agency?" Ming Na felt that her thoughts at the moment were very clear, as if she had already seen a possible future, she looked at Jada, smiled lightly: "So, let's be friends. If we meet on the battlefield in the future, I won't be soft, and you don't have to worry about it"
She turned around and put away the cooking table, and was about to leave, when she heard Jada, who was silent behind her, suddenly say, "What if I give up being hostile to East?"
Ming Na was stunned and turned around: "Is it possible? That's your dream for many years." Because she knows this too well, she has always been wary of this "friend"
Jada smiled wryly: "As you said before, my own country hasn't settled down yet, so why should I play someone else's idea? This time I won half of the Weisha, and it takes time to digest if If I follow your father's example and govern Nuojia seriously, maybe...without fighting, I can make the country prosperous and strong." He raised his eyes and stared at Minna: "If I give up the idea of unification, I may even... sign a formal agreement with your king. The peace agreement promises not to invade East and Shaonan for the rest of your life, and if your king also promises, will you... change your mind and go back with me?"
Minna took two steps back, feeling a little dazed in her heart. Jada had always dreamed of giving up, just like that? Why...she thinks it's not true?
But if...he really gave up, and would rather give up for her...
Ming Na didn't know how she left, only vaguely remembered saying "go back and think about it", but she was walking on the street, but her mind was not clear
She couldn't understand why Jada was willing to give in to this extent? Does he like her that much? It was obvious that she didn't know that she was Minte until today, but even if she knew she was Minte, their friendship was not that deep before? When he knew she was a spy, he was so angry that he wanted to kill her!
Could it be that...he thought Mint was dead and subconsciously fantasized her as the perfect friend? Minna recalled the safety department's psychoanalysis course and felt that this possibility did exist
But Jada is obviously a very calm and rational guy...Only when it comes to external expansion, he will be fanatical
A person who is so enthusiastic about expansion would be willing to give up expansion for her... Minna was a little moved, thinking of what Winnie was watching when she was pastime, thinking that it doesn't fit the description that the hero can sacrifice everything for the heroine? Every time Winnie watched it, she was moved to tears, although Minna didn't wipe her tears, her face still blushed.
But she really couldn't make up her mind. If it was something else, she would have asked Alex long ago, but this question, she intuitively thought it was better not to let Alex know
The street in front was full of noise~IndoMTL.com~ woke her up from her contemplation, only to realize that she had unknowingly arrived in a neighborhood where civilians lived, and hurriedly looked around to see what was going on.
What caught her eye were several familiar figures. She recognized them as the butler and footman of her uncle Elon's house. Among them, Corbyn was holding a girl tight, trying to drag her to the carriage, and a A middle-aged woman desperately pulled him from behind, two **-year-old boys grabbed the girl's apron, and a middle-aged man and two young people in their twenties were talking to the housekeeper angrily to listen to what they were talking about. , it seems that the housekeeper wants to take the girl away, but the girl's family is resolutely unwilling
Minna lowered her face, ran over quickly, and shouted: "What are you doing?!" Seeing that Corbyn was still not letting go, she pushed him and stumbled: "Let go of your dirty hands. !" Corbyn steadied his feet, looked at her in a daze, and shrank his head in shock after a while.
She turned around and tried to comfort the girl, but found that it was an acquaintance...it was Bevin's lover Catherine!
Catherine apparently recognized her too, bit her lip, tears fell on her pale face, and looked away in grievance
The housekeeper stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Ming Na: "Miss Ming Na" paused, then lowered his voice: "This is Madam's order, she wants to invite this young lady to be a guest"
Ming Na sneered: "As a guest? Judging by your posture, I thought it was a robbery!"
The housekeeper quietly wiped away the cold sweat: "You are joking, how is this possible?"
Ming Na glanced at the crowd and saw that Katherine's family members were angry and injustice on their faces. The crowd was also pointing at them. After a moment of indifference, she turned around and asked Katherine, "What happened?"
(In order to make up for yesterday, I added a little more size...I won't be ashamed to ask for pink tickets, of course it's better...)
