Chapter 147 Tools.
After Grace disappeared, the fighting on the front line became more intense. The rebels seemed to have opened the floodgates and went completely crazy. In just a few days, they occupied the mining planet on the border of the empire.
As a last resort, Admiral Snopes went to the front in person.
Her Majesty the Queen has been in a particularly bad mood for several days.
Therefore, Lu Xia suppressed the request and submitted a meeting request.
Lu Xia was not in a hurry about this. What Madam Dai Yin and Victoria had done could not be let go just like that. Her Majesty the Queen also needed to give her an explanation.
During this period of waiting, Mrs. Dana brought her a piece of news.
At the open banquet for househusbands held in Victoria that day, the waiter who led Lu Xia to the lounge in the name of Mrs. Dana was found.
After the incident was exposed, the waiter was smart enough to sneak away after realizing that things were not going well.
Otherwise, Mrs. Dana would not have had the chance to find him. I think Mrs. Dai Yin is worried about the departure of this waiter. After all, this waiter is a good witness.
From the waiter, Mrs. Dana learned that after they left that day, Mrs. Dayin and Victoria brought the guests and rushed into the room, trying to catch Duke Lu Xia and Dong Ke in the act. However, when they rushed into the room, there was no sign of Duke Lu Xia except Dong Ke who was soaking in the fish tank.
But all the guests who followed in inhaled the royal secret medicine, and the scene almost got out of control. Fortunately, Mrs. Dai Yin reacted in time and isolated them. Afterwards, she lit some aphrodisiac incense to make them forget about the incident.
This news was not exposed.
But the incense wasn't without side effects. After inhaling it, the guests returned with varying degrees of physical discomfort. However, due to Madam Dai Yin's royal status, no one said anything. But they all began to wonder what Madam Dai Yin had used on them. The empire was experiencing a particular shortage of private doctors recently.
Lu Xia was not surprised to hear this. Madam Dai Yin had set up such a scheme with a very clear purpose. Upon hearing this, she said to Madam Dana, "Her Majesty the Queen has not yet accepted my audience."
"I recently heard that Her Majesty the Queen is worried about the situation on the front line. I guess she can't take care of your affairs at the moment. Please wait a little longer."
Lu Xia responded: "Okay."
Then he asked, "Any news from the Dafelno family?"
"You want to ask Dong Ke, right? His health wasn't good to begin with, and this time Victoria gave him medicine, but he didn't get better in time. He's still receiving treatment in the hospital. What can the Dafelno family say? He's just a male, even if his fusion level is higher. Since he's with Victoria, as the female master, Victoria can do whatever she wants to him. They originally wanted to take advantage of you, thinking you were more friendly to males, but now that their plan has failed, they can only accept reality. Even if the Dafelno family really values Dong Ke, a male with an 80% fusion level, they can't offend the royal family for him."
Lu Xia was also very clear about this, but even so she could not accept the Dafelno family's scheme against her.
After finishing the conversation with Mrs. Dana, Lu Xia was originally planning to go to Courtyard No. 2 to check on the progress of the Ice Spirit Gene. Just as he was leaving, he received an unfamiliar voice request.
Lu Xia hesitated for a moment, with a little expectation in her heart, but after the call was connected, the expectation turned into disappointment. She thought it was Grace, but in fact it was Shiver from the Dafelno family.
She wasn't surprised they knew her number. After all, the Dafelno family was considered powerful, so some of their tactics were perfectly normal. "Good day, Duke Luxia. I'm sorry to bother you at this hour. I believe you already know what happened that day, and the Dafelno family wants to make amends."
Lu Xia didn't expect that the Dafelno family would admit what they had done just like that, which made Lu Xia look at them with a new respect.
"So how do you want to make amends?"
"As long as Duke Lu Xia is willing, we can accept any compensation. My last request still counts."
Lu Xia recalled the last time Xiweier asked to become her concubine. For a moment, she didn't know whether the other party was trying to make amends or to take advantage of her. She was amused by the other party's shamelessness.
"Lord Xiweier is really calculating. Since the Dafelno family is so generous, I won't be polite either. Then compensate me with 300 million yuan."
Xiweier paused for a moment, as if she didn't expect Duke Lu Xia to be so straightforward. Three hundred million yuan is indeed not a small amount of money for the Dafelno family, but it is better to have a way to make up for it than not to have one.
“Okay, we’ll raise the funds for you as soon as possible.”
Having said that, Xiweier paused for a moment and spoke again: "You really don't want to consider letting me become your concubine?"
"Then tell me, what are the benefits of becoming my concubine? I don't think I need the help of the Dafelno family."
"Your Excellency, the Duke, are you familiar with the Dafelno family? They possess the technology to manufacture the Empire's starships, meaning 80% of the Empire's starships are manufactured by the Dafelno family. This time, Her Majesty the Queen personally arranged for my brother Dong Ke to marry Victoria, hoping to closely connect the Dafelno family with the Imperial Family."
The Dafelno family cannot compete with the royal family and can only accept it, but my brother's health is indeed very weak, and things will only get worse after this. If Your Excellency the Duke is willing, the Dafelno family is willing to form an alliance with Your Excellency the Duke."
When Lu Xia heard this, he was really surprised by what Xiweier said.
Did the Dafelnos have any misunderstandings about her?
She thought so and asked, "What do the Dafelno family want from me? Or what kind of illusion did I give them? Why did they choose me? I have no connection with the Dafelno family and we have never had any intersection."
That's why she couldn't understand all this.
Xiweier's calm voice continued, "Because Duke Luxia has a genetic agent that can increase the degree of gene fusion, turning defective males into gene fusions. This is something the Empire has not been able to do in hundreds of years. Is the delay in the release of the genetic fusion agent related to Her Majesty the Queen?"
When Lu Xia heard what Xiweier said, he couldn't help but sigh at his sharpness.
She did not deny it, but asked, "So the Dafelno family chose me because of this?"
Xiweier chuckled. "Duke Luxia, have you underestimated your own abilities? From beauty creams and hair growth serums to genetic preparations, each one is beneficial to the people of the empire. Your credibility is already very high among the people of the empire. As long as you are willing, the Dafelno family will become your most solid and reliable ally."
Lu Xia was not fooled by the other party's sweet talk. She remained calm as always: "So what does the Dafelno family want from me?"
"If I say no, you might not believe it, but the Dafelno family only wants to focus on starship manufacturing and doesn't want to be anyone's tool."
