The villain queen is eavesdropping on my inner thoughts and she won't let me lie down?

A new day with cool breeze and yellowing autumn leaves.

The city of mystery gradually woke up from sleep and regained its vitality. The streets became more and more lively, with pedestrians and vendors coming and going, showing a prosperity beyond its contemporaries.

Yesterday's intelligence war with the Tianming Army as the background did not have any impact on this city with a population of over one million.

In order to trap Nalinel, the news of the Dark Night Guard's great victory was classified as confidential and prohibited from being spread and discussed.

So there were only rumors in a small range, and the public did not know about it yet.

In order to trap Nalinel, the Dark Night Guard stopped capturing the remaining forces of the Tianming Army in other cities and changed to secretly observing, waiting for "Shadi" to take Roger to join them, and then make the next layout.

Another thing that is not easy to hide is that the block where the battle took place has serious traces of magic bombing.

Finally, the official notice issued by the city defense army explained that the cause was the serial explosion of the alchemy device.

Here we must thank the Tianming Army for setting up a magic circle to isolate the space. After the battle started, no one witnessed this personal battle show belonging to Lord Dio.

Left Prime Minister's Mansion.

In the cherry pink, girly bed curtain, Margaret was rolling around on the bed, very entangled.

Should I have dinner with that bastard Dio today?

The small ceiling fan had two panda-like dark circles under her eyes. Not only were her eyes red, but her entire eyes were covered with red bloodshot.

Because of Dio, she didn't sleep all night!

Yesterday, she was affected by the actions of the Tianming Army. She was not injured, but the guards around her suffered heavy losses.

However, this action was approved by the Queen of Evernight, and capturing the leader of the Tianming Army alive was of strategic significance to Her Majesty.

So in the end, in her opinion, those guards died gloriously in battle.

This was not the battlefield they chose on their own initiative, but they stayed at their posts until the last moment, which was completely loyal to the empire.

This is the duty of a soldier, and it is also the fate that a soldier cannot escape.

She had no reason to blame Dio for this. After all, she herself also took considerable responsibility for the occurrence of this situation.

It was she who was first provoked by Angelina and became emotionally unstable, pestering Dio, which led to the temporary change of tactics of the Tianming Army and the gap in the arrangement of the Dark Night Guard.

She was angry because of a key point that she had only figured out when she left the scene yesterday and returned to the military to work:

Dio would cooperate with Roger in this matter. It is obvious that the two have a secret connection!

In addition, Dio admitted that he and Angelina were friends before, and then calculated the tacit understanding between him and the Dark Night Guard, so it is easy to deduce a key point:

Dio and Roger, these two people are at least friends!

Combined with the information she inquired, Roger also served as a consultant when Dio compiled the history of the empire. It is very likely that the relationship between the two people is closer than friends...

I dare not think, I dare not think, I dare not think...嘤!

Margaret's life trajectory in the past 17 years lacked friendship and family affection, and she did not trust anyone except herself.

Until Dio admitted that they were friends, she naturally cherished this friendship very much.

But the happiness lasted no more than three hours. She was working hard and suddenly realized that this bastard had a good relationship with Charles's family?

As for the fact that there were too few surviving members of Charles' family, it was not the focus of the little aunt!

Margaret was very worried. She cherished it for a long time, but finally found that Dio's friends were all over Odu...

What am I?

So, the original friends were such casual relationships?

No, I don't accept it!

Margaret asked several of her subordinates indirectly about their definition of friends:

"If you can talk to each other and get along well, then you are friends!"

"If you have common hobbies and have known each other for a long time, then you can be considered friends?"

"You will have different friends at different stages of your life..."

"More friends mean more paths, why refuse friendships that come to you?"

"Many friends, but no confidants... woohoo."

After a very irresponsible sampling survey, Margaret confirmed from these veterans that it seems that there really is no need for harsh conditions to be considered friends.

Is this a very basic and common relationship?

It is not unique or exclusive, as long as you spend enough time together, you can round it up?

Humph, Dio is obviously a big idiot who can't choose friends!

Humph, even Charles and his sister can be friends with him, and I am so moved by being recognized as a friend, it's embarrassing!

Humph, I am the Left Prime Minister of the Empire, the little devil most trusted by His Majesty!

It was his great honor to extend an olive branch to him, and he should be grateful!

It was so uncomfortable, Dio was a good person, how could he be friends with Charles and his sister?

Margaret was entangled from the military department until she got home, rolling around in bed and thinking about it.

In the end, she didn't understand what she should have thought about, and figured out a lot of things she shouldn't have thought about!

For example, Roger arranged Dio as bait, which shows that Roger is very clear about Dio's hidden strength.

Her Majesty knew and approved of this action, which means that she also knows Dio's strength.

Maybe, His Majesty is also friends with Dio!

After all, he was introduced into the cabinet by His Majesty.

Anyway, I am the only one in the world who is kept in the dark, the clown who knows nothing, right?

The more Margaret thought about it, the more she felt wronged, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt wronged, and she hammered the bed...

I struggled for half a month for a friendship, and finally Dior agreed to it happily. It was not because I was so special, but because the word friend was worthless?

It was obviously irrelevant, but Xiao Ceiling Fan felt that she was a little green on her head.

In short, it was just a friend, but she was jealous.

The first friend in her life was a socialite with a lot of friends. She didn't sleep all night and was uncomfortable until dawn.

Because she had never had warmth, she was very cautious about the little candlelight she had now, and thus she would appear extremely sensitive.

Just like a stray cat that has been abandoned, it will always be more wary than an ordinary house cat. It is always afraid that it will be abandoned after giving its true heart, so it simply does not give.

Margaret is actually in a similar state.

Not trusting others, thinking deeply is actually a lack of confidence in oneself, thinking that it is not trustworthy.

In the end, endless fantasies were born, and she was entangled all night.

Finally, she was entangled until dawn, and she didn't have to worry about whether to sleep or not.

It's time to think about whether to ask Dio to have breakfast today!

Without me, he can have dinner with other friends, right?

One more or one less is not much, and it's just a nuisance to get in front of others, isn't it...

But if I don't go, I can't even get along with my friends, isn't it the same as surrendering to Charles?

An angel and a devil fought in Margaret's head, and in the end, the side that would rather die standing than kneeling won.

"Humph, I won't be outdone by Charles!"

Margaret jumped out of bed, picked out the most beautiful little skirt, dressed up carefully, picked up the breakfast prepared in the kitchen, and walked to the commercial district.

...

...

Commercial district, Dio's residence.

The magic circles and traps set up by the Tianming Army have been dismantled, and today Dio is played by a shadow puppet to maintain his daily life here.

This daily life also includes having breakfast with Margaret.

"Maybe the explosion of the alchemical device is equivalent to the explosion of the gas pipeline in this world..."

Roger looked at the news published in the corner of the "Long Live the Queen" newspaper and smiled helplessly.

Government transparency is always a false proposition. The two sides have asymmetric information, different abilities to interpret information, and different focuses.

If everything is really transparent, I'm afraid there will be a big mess, and it will be crazy and led by those with ulterior motives.

Fortunately, the empire wrote "suitable for men" in the recruitment position, and no one will question that this is gender discrimination, and then squeeze the already tight resources of the administrative department, and must respond to such unfounded questions.

Human society always needs appropriate lies and deceptions as lubricants. If everything is said directly, conflicts will definitely break out every minute and every second until self-destruction.

Why did Roger think of these?

Because Margaret, who is opposite him now, has dark circles under her eyes. It is obvious that she didn't sleep well last night and was in a bad mood with him.

There was a hint of curiosity in her eyes just now, and she wanted to ask what the gas pipeline was, but she held it back and continued to fight wits and courage with the cream mashed potatoes in front of her in silence.

This girl, except for saying "good morning" when she entered the room, didn't say a word to Roger.

Roger couldn't help but wonder, could it be that his identity was exposed, his lies were exposed, and she was suspicious, so she used cold violence against him?

But a mature actor must never take the initiative to be honest because he is worried that what he did will be exposed.

Expect the other party to be lenient because of honesty?

That's really naive1

First of all, it is the other party's right to forgive or not. What's more tragic is that because of misjudgment, he will say a mistake that the other party didn't know, and then lead to more tragic consequences.

And Roger can confirm that the problem between Margaret and him at the moment is not serious.

She is obviously a childish temper, using this attitude to convey the message of "hurry up and coax me".

But if you let me coax, I will coax, then won't I be very embarrassed?

If I coaxed it the first time, the second and third times will be even worse, and it won't work even if I coax it to the sky?

Don't spoil her!

Moreover, men and women think differently. If you try to coax her hard according to the straight man's thinking, it is easy to go in the opposite direction, and the more you coax, the worse it will be.

For example, some people try to break the ice by finding faults, forcibly creating topics, and finally small conflicts become big problems, and the other party explodes on the spot...

Therefore, when a woman is angry, it is a very unwise choice to appease her by coaxing her. It is a waste of time and effort and not pleasing.

The correct way to appease cold violence is to change a topic to divert attention and not to open up a new battlefield on issues that may cause conflicts.

Wait for the two sides to communicate and find out the other party's entanglement, and then find a way to open up, instead of forcing a breakthrough under frontal firepower.

If throwing out all the topics doesn't work, then give the other party a cooling-off period, and wait until she has thought about it, and then make another surprise attack.

When the enemy advances, I retreat, I retreat and advance, when the enemy stays, I disturb, when I am tired, I fight, this is a tactical leader!

Of course, Roger would choose this, and there is a more serious problem.

He and this half-blood devil are friends, but they are just friends.

You have to comfort someone when they are upset, this is not the responsibility of a friend.

I have thrown several topics here, but Margaret didn't take them. Roger is only going to try the last topic. If the little ceiling fan gets angry again...

Then let her fend for herself for now!

It's not that Roger is heartless, but he grew up in a normal environment and couldn't guess that Margaret was jealous because she thought she had too many friends.

To put it in a good way, this is a manifestation of care, but from Roger's perspective, this kid is really a bit weird...

He can empathize and understand Margaret's subtle thoughts at some moments.

But he is not a worm in her stomach, always understanding her sensitive and strange thoughts.

Roger turned a page of the newspaper and pretended to read casually while saying:

"Mary, regarding the matter I promised you yesterday, I thought of an idea that should increase your Majesty's favorability towards you if it is handled well."

The fork in Margaret's hand collided with the plate and made a very obvious sound. She raised her head and looked at Roger in disbelief.

Did he, did he remember what he promised me?

And did he come up with a good idea so quickly?

It was about the Queen, Margaret couldn't help but pay attention.

Besides, wasn't it for Dio's help to win the favor of the Queen that she came to Dio to form an alliance?

Suddenly, the little ceiling fan was entangled again.

Should she continue to be angry and miss this opportunity?

In fact, she didn't come here specifically to be angry with Dio.

She just wanted to play well and surpass the position of Charles and his brother in Dio's heart with her personal charm.

But when she opened the door, she found that Dio's reception mode and attitude were exactly the same as yesterday.

Margaret was immediately very disappointed, so disappointed that she didn't want to talk.

This was inexplicable, and she passively entered the angry mode.

Later, she would think that since she had gambled, she would gamble to the end to test how much he cared about her friend.

These were all very childish behaviors, and Roger saw through them easily.

As a result, he was really calm throughout the whole process, talking to her as if there was no difference every day. Margaret ignored him, and he didn't care.

In the face of change, the little ceiling fan's ghost ideas were all on the air, and naturally he was very depressed.

She felt that Dio didn't care about her at all, and she was just a little grass that no one cared about...

As a result, Dio suddenly said that he remembered his promise to her, and thought about it and came to a conclusion?

Because she was too disappointed before, she suddenly saw hope at this moment, and her heart was about to melt.

Maybe he was too tired from thinking last night, and now he is very tired, so he ignored my emotions.

So, I can't be too harsh on my friends, right?

Margaret finally found a way out for herself, continued to poke the mashed potatoes gently, and responded in a very casual tone: "Then if it's convenient for you, just tell me briefly now."

Roger's eyes drooped, watching the little hand under the table of the small ceiling fan rubbing the skirt repeatedly, obviously his real mood was not as calm as his tone showed.

As expected of a fanatical fan of the Queen of Eternal Night, she was anxious just by throwing out a little information related to the Queen!

Alas, I, Luo, have really been worried about the unity within the empire, and I must ask His Majesty to increase my salary.

If you want a few more cherries, that's fine~
