Traveling to another world, inheriting a mess at the beginning

"I have a rough idea of ​​the situation. Princess, how is your health now?"

Under the high-speed flight of the spider cherry, Xia Ye arrived at Keliya's side in just half a day.

As the top think tank in the Aarons family, it has become a consensus for everyone to ask Xia Ye when they are in doubt. When Keliya saw Xia Ye, her uneasy mood calmed down a lot.

"Sister Xia Ye, I am not a princess... There is no need to call me that."

"Your Highness, even if what Duke Booker said is true, as long as His Majesty the Emperor does not publicly deny your identity, you are still a princess."

Karin actually said this before, but Xia Ye repeated it again, and it was more convincing.

Keliya really doesn't need to worry about her identity now. Even if Duke Booker really makes these secrets public, as long as the royal family does not admit it, it will only cause some suspicion at most.

Because the princess does not have the right to inherit the throne, even if she is not the emperor's biological child, it will not affect the nobles and princes in the end.

"Duke Booker only thinks your talent has some value, so he joined forces with the great nobles to force a marriage. But he has lost an heir now, and even if he finally gets you, it is estimated that he will not be able to make up for the loss."

No matter how tempting the princess's name and talent are, Duke Booker, who has already suffered heavy losses, probably doesn't want to take risks again.

"So as long as you don't openly oppose him, he should not do anything to you for the time being."

"But he may still take revenge on your husband... If he finds the 'Son of the Star', he will get a super magic source furnace that does not need any supplies at all."

"Then there are two countermeasures I can give at present - first, continue to destroy the assets of the Duke's family in secret and delay time for the young master as much as possible. Second, make your conflict with the Duke's family public, bear the risk of losing the princess's identity, and force the Duke's family to show all their cards without being prepared."

Both strategies have their pros and cons - the risk of acting in secret is lower, and Claire does not have to worry about losing her princess's identity, but on the other hand, the loss caused to the Duke's family will not be too great.

If he directly flipped the table, Duke Booker would have to deal with Keliya's full-force attack without being fully prepared. If a strong man really went on a killing spree without scruples, even if he was stopped in the end, the losses would be incalculable.

Moreover, Keliya also had Karin and Zhu Ying, who were terrifying fighters with strengths above level five. If you want to stop them, you probably need at least two regular legions of soldiers.

"Although it sounds like the second option is more cost-effective, you must pay attention to the fact that destroying Duke Booker's assets with all your strength is actually weakening the empire's military strength, which may cause the empire to lose its advantage in subsequent wars."

Duke Booker's family is not only the logistics support for the southern front of the empire, but also supplies most of the magic source stones to the entire empire.

If Keliya really went to war with the Duke's family without scruples, the energy supply of the entire empire might be affected.

The empire is now facing the dual threats of the Dusk Kingdom and the Cardia Kingdom. If there is a problem with the rear supply at this time, it may not be able to cope with two wars that are unfolding at the same time.

"It will affect the supply of magic source stones..."

The empire's biggest military advantage at present is an air fleet that consumes a huge amount of magic source stones. As long as this fleet is in a state of combat readiness, the enemy's ground forces will not be able to advance the front line.

But if the stable supply of magic source stones is lost, the combat power of this fleet will be seriously weakened.

"...Is this the choice I have to face?"

"But no matter what you choose, we will support you-because even if you decide to sacrifice the entire empire, it has nothing to do with us."

Xia Ye certainly doesn't care what will happen to the empire. For her, as long as Aarons is safe, it doesn't matter what happens.

Even if the empire is destroyed in the war, she will only choose to take Aarons to start over somewhere else.

"My husband...will you support me?"

"Do you mind the young master's thoughts? Then you can ask him in person. But based on my understanding of the young master, if you didn't have this princess identity, he might be more relaxed."

Everyone knows that Aarons has always been very concerned about his own value. He always feels that he has done too little and cannot be compared with others.

This bad habit brought from the previous life is actually eroding his self-confidence. If one day he really thinks that he is worthless, he may not hesitate toI hesitated to treat myself as a sacrifice.

"No... forget it. Telling him this at this time will only make him upset."

Because Aarons has now publicly announced that he will support the third prince Luo Lan as the heir to the throne. If I lose my identity as a princess at this time, Aarons may start to worry about how to treat Luo Lan.

"I actually... don't care about this identity. In the past ten years, I could only cover my face. I didn't live the life that a princess should have."

"Do you think that the young master will abandon you because of such a thing?"

"No, I'm just worried about whether I will cause trouble for him... He pulled me out of the darkness, and I don't want him to be troubled by me anymore."

Although Xia Ye had long known what kind of people Aarons and Keliya were, she confirmed this fact again today-

The essence of these two people is so similar... So it is an inevitable fate for them to attract each other and become husband and wife.

"So you have decided to choose the first method? No, I think what you are going to say next is... you want to choose the second method, but everyone else has to return to the young master, and you will bear all the responsibilities and consequences alone."

Before the princess could give her answer, the Aries beauty pushed her glasses with her hand, and then predicted her answer expressionlessly.

"Sister Xia Ye, what's wrong with you?!"

"Are you still going to say that if you lose your status as a princess, the young master will decisively abandon you... and then it's better to forget you?"

Xia Ye, who mercilessly exposed what Claire was thinking, showed a rare angry expression at this time.

"If you really plan to do this, I will have to slap you first to wake you up."

"...I'm sorry."

Xia Ye certainly knew what Claire was thinking-because she and Aarons were too similar.

Sacrificing oneself for the happiness of the other person is simply stupid in Xia Ye's eyes.

"Since you really think so, I can only give you a third plan."
