She Is Not a Witch Chapter 4: Sit in the garden
"It's not a witch novel ()" to find the latest chapter!
As the sky gets darker, it's time for the two people in the cafe to part with each other.
Time always flies quickly. Pullman has been here for a long time today. Although as the supreme leader of a country, almost no one can restrain him, but this will cause some strange things if he stays any longer. Rumors and speculations.
Before leaving, Pullman once again invited Lorrain Hill, hoping that she could stay and participate in the construction of Crancia.
"Suddenly such an invitation, I was not ready for the moment, so let's hold it off for a while, but I will come again tomorrow, this month I will stay in the capital." Although he did not immediately promise, Lorrain Hill Still promised to stay for a while.
Seeing the girl's answer, Pullman was relieved as long as she didn't refuse. For this teacher who is like a fairy in the forest, he often felt that the other party would suddenly disappear, and then suddenly appear again somehow.
"This is the proof of entry and exit of the palace. You can take this to the entrance to find the guards, and they will send someone to inform and lead the way."
Pulman handed over a shield-shaped badge, about the size of Lorrain Hill’s palm. The badge is dark gold, with an enamel base, and a few lifelike stars printed on it, with golden wheat ears surrounding the middle on both sides.
"Okay." Lorraine Hill did not refuse, but accepted it.
"Then, see you tomorrow." The silver-haired girl waved to Pullman, and the two parted.
Pulman walked out of this cafe. The two teams of guards who had been waiting for a long time had already lit a torch and separated on both sides to protect the leader of Crancia and return to the palace to rest.
Lorraine Hill stood upstairs and watched the team below it gradually drifted away, looking at the strength of this team a little.
The knights in black armor are basically Sequence 4 elites, and there are a few differently dressed entourages behind them. The strengths of these people range from Sequence 5-7, and they seem to have their own specialties.
After a brief night in a hotel in the royal capital, Lorrain Hill also came to a side entrance of the royal palace in the morning of the next day. Generally speaking, the main entrance is only opened for major events or formal occasions, and the office staff in the palace also enter through the side entrance.
Today’s Palais de Crancia is not a place where the royal family lives, but has been transformed into a national administrative center. People from various departments communicate with each other, convey documents and orders, and wear cloaks on both sides of the aisles and corridors. As the center of a country, the guards of armor are naturally top-notch.
"Hello, please wait."
After receiving the shield-shaped badge from the girl, a guard asked him to simply register, and immediately went to notify the internal affairs officer in the palace. Not long after, a woman dressed as a maid appeared at the gate.
She has a capable single ponytail with documents in her hand, and she looks like she is about 20 years old. After walking out of the palace gate, he bowed slightly to salute the girl, and then led the way.
"Please come with me." Behind her were two black and white maids, with light jabs hanging from their waists, and it seemed that they were not just vases for serving others.
Several people walked through the garden-like palace corridor, and then came to a place with fewer people.
"Sorry, I took a little long way around, because Lord Pullman said that you may not want to be seen by many people." The maid took Lorrain Hill to a pavilion in the garden.
"The morning state meeting is not over yet. Please wait here for a while."
After speaking, she asked the two maids to bring some snacks and fruits and put them on the table.
"Well, it doesn't matter." Lorrain Hill sat on the white chair by the round table, looking at the surrounding environment a little bit.
This is supposed to be an open-air garden where the West Wind royal family entertained guests in the past. It is quieter behind the palace. From the side of the pavilion, you can overlook the scenery of the royal capital below. Pieces of crimson brick houses are all over the view, and people are on the street. With people coming and going, curls of green smoke rose in the distance.
After sitting for a while, the maid who brought her here left temporarily because she had other things to do, but when she left, she left the two sword-wielding maids aside and listened to Lorrain Hill. Commanded.
Lorraine Hill asked the two maids: "When does the State Council generally start and end?"
"Hello, sir, the meeting starts at 8 o'clock in the morning, and usually ends around 10 o'clock if there is no major event. However, the south is not very stable at the moment, so the time may be longer."
Even though they are only maids, these people, under the influence of their ears and eyes, are also very knowledgeable about the current events in Crancia. It happened that Lorrainhill also wanted to know the current situation, so he asked them one by one.
"I have been away from this land for a long time and have only come back recently. Can you talk about the current situation in Crancia? Of course, you don't need to tell me some confidential things."
"Okay, this lord." The two maids were called back and forth by Lorrain Hill, looked at the girl a little, and quickly lowered their heads to explain.
"At present, Crancia is roughly divided into 34 counties and 12 provinces, with a population of about 250 million..."
It's really huge. After listening to the words of these two maids, Lorrain Hill slowly understood the size of this country. As a large country with a land area second only to lush green on the Western Continent, the population of Crancia is undoubtedly quite large, but in the past few people would count it, plus the concealment and non-reporting of the nobles, so it has always been vague.
Until the west wind broke, Crancia was established, and the government spent a lot of energy re-stating various data such as population, land, etc., and some hidden things slowly emerged.
When the westerly wind exists, the apparent population of the country may be less than 180 million. A considerable part of them are slaves of the nobles, bandits in the mountains, uninhabited villages on the fringe, refugees fleeing their homeland, and so on.
After the country is stable and everything is cleared out, these invisible populations gradually surfaced~IndoMTL.com~ and this data also surprised the officials. Later, they had to increase the domestic budget for arable land. As for now the whole country is reclaiming farmland.
After understanding the current basic situation of Crancia, Lorrainhill became a little curious about the two maids.
"Where did you come from before, did you practice swords since you were young?"
The two maids glanced at each other, and then carefully replied: "We were originally descendants of the Westwind nobles, so we have some extraordinary skills, plus literacy, and are in good shape before we were selected to enter the palace to assist and entertain Some guests."
The descendants of the West Wind, the girl thought to herself, and looked at the strength of the two people a little bit. It was about Sequence 4. Although not comparable to the terrifying geniuses in the academy, it is extremely rare to reach this level in the 20s.
"Then how do you feel about Crancia today, or how do the nobles of the west wind think about Crancia now?"
