Villainous princesses don't die in royal battles

"What color does little Irene want."

Elena replied: "It's not sure yet, it's better to be black."

Black hair has the largest proportion in the Callist Empire, and it is also the least likely to arouse suspicion.

"For black, the light ink flower produced in the southern part of the empire is a good dyeing agent, and as long as it is stained with the juice squeezed from its own root, the black dye extracted from the light ink flower will fade away automatically."

"But that thing is good for dyeing hair, it's inconvenient to change the color of pupils."

Carlotta suddenly thought of something in the middle of her speech, Mo Tong narrowed her eyes slightly.

"But there are ways to change pupil color."

Elena heard the words and asked gently: "What does Sister Carlotta mean?"

Before the words fell, Carlotta continued.

"Little Irene, do you know elves?"

Elena nodded slightly after hearing this: "I know, there are traces of elves' activities in the Forest of Eternal Darkness in the northwest of the empire."

It is a mountain range with a long history, famous for its layered giant trees. There are multiple magic barriers around the mountain range, and few people can set foot on it.

"Due to some dirty underground transactions in the history of the empire, these elves with light bodies and good faces don't like to show their true colors. When they step into the territory of the empire, they usually wear wide hoods that can cover the elves' long ears. At the same time, wear fake eyes that can conceal your bright green pupils."

"This artificial eye is a plant's transparent valve. Long-term wearing will not only not hurt the eyes, but will also subtly improve vision."

"If I remember correctly, the members of the Bulstrode family collect potion materials near the Forest of Eternal Darkness every year, and the Honeysuckle Chamber of Commerce should have such valves for sale."

Light ink flowers, transparent valves, Eileena silently memorized these two things, her thoughts running quickly.

"Why did little Irene suddenly ask me this?"

Carlotta looked at Elena's long silver-white hair, thinking that if it was dyed black, it would lose its original unique charm.

"I think..."

"...Get Delphis out of the castle."

The girl's cold voice was particularly obvious in the room. Carlotta didn't seem to hear it clearly for the first time, and frowned slightly.

"Little Irene, what did you say?"

Elena raised her head to look at Carlota, and repeated in a gentle voice.

"I want to take Delphis out of the castle."

Hearing the other party's clear speech, Carlota frowned even more tightly.

"...You know the consequences of being found out."

Delphis is a stain in Kantor's life, and the latter can't let her leave the castle anyway. Combined with the question Elena asked her just now, an idea that is ready to come out is placed in front of Carlotta.

Elena is going to take Delphis out of the palace without telling Kantor.

"I know." Elena replied.

"Father hasn't seen even one side of Delphis in the past few years, and Delphis had never been exposed to magic before I came, so it is impossible for her spiritual power to be recorded."

"I asked Catherine to investigate. The place with the worst security in the entire palace is the castle where Delphis is. The emperor seems to want everyone to forget the existence of this illegitimate daughter, so even Surveillance staff never arranged."

Except for Sara, who is in charge of delivering food, there are only a few guards guarding the castle. Even an intermediate apprentice like Elena can easily sneak in during shift changes, which is enough to prove that the defense here Vacancy of strength.

"But even so, the sudden disappearance of a large living person is not a small risk."

Carlotta frowned, her tone suddenly became serious.

"And once this matter is exposed, even if you are His Majesty's favorite princess, the consequences you will face will be unimaginable."

Kantor imprisoned Delphis in the castle just to cover up the past that he didn't want to mention, and he would not allow anyone to announce the existence of Delphis to the public, even if it was him who did it Favorite goddaughter Princess Elena.

Elena pursed her lips when she heard the words, and said softly.

"Sister Carlotta, what do you think the father will think if he finds out that Delphis is not in the castle, even if it is found out that I did it?"

"He will only think that I have dealt with Delphis, instead of showing the world that there is such a blood relationship with the current emperor who may take away his father's beloved daughter, let alone think that I can take away the Delphis ribbon. Nurture around you."

The conflicts and contradictions between Elena and Delphis are not a secret in the palace, and Kantor has always turned a blind eye to it, and has no intention of getting involved.

"Father doesn't like Delphis, so the jealous step-sister kindly helped him get rid of this stain in his life, everything is quite reasonable."

Elena never forgot that she still has a villain status.

Carlota shook her head after listening, and responded softly: "It's not that simple."

"After all, the blood of the royal family flows in Delphis's body. No matter how indifferent His Majesty's attitude towards her is, it is not necessary to deal with her."

Just like Sara can blackmail Delphis secretly, but she can't bully her on the bright side. As long as the latter still has a trace of Cantor's blood, she can represent the face of the royal family to a certain extent.

As long as Elena is found doing this, Kanto's anger will definitely greet her. Even in the face of her parents, Kantor doesn't care too much, and the latter will no longer love Elena like he used to.

"Little Irene... you actually know the consequences of doing this better than me..."

Hearing Carlota's words, Elena did not refute, but spoke slowly.

"Then Delphis is equally clear."

Volume 180: Chapter 170 Chapter 4 Do you spoil her too much ([-]k)

What Carlotta said is actually right. Elena knows in her heart how risky it is to take Delphis from the castle. The latter's identity is too sensitive. Once Kantor finds out, even Elena It is also difficult to bear the anger of the imperial emperor.

Elena said those words before just to reassure Carlota, but judging from the results, the effect does not seem to be good.

"Delphis currently doesn't believe in identities other than An Nuo. I need to find an anchor point that will allow her to re-establish her trust in me."

Elena stroked Carlotta's black hair hanging down on the bed, and whispered softly.

"She knows that Kantor will not let her leave the castle, and she also knows how many uncertain factors the third princess Elena will face in bringing her out of the palace."

If the vicious step-sister was just trying to make fun of her, there was no need to do this step.

As long as the whereabouts of his illegitimate daughter are exposed, Cantor will definitely be disappointed with the instigator of all this, Elena Ovecia, who is not taking enough risks to support the evil of bullying his sister when he has nothing to do. taste.

Elena might torture her in other ways, but there was no reason to lose Kantor's favor.

"There are two things that Delphis longs for the most at present. One is care and love, and the other is the freedom she can only wish for. Annuo can give her the first point, so it is natural to hand over the second point to Elena. .”

"And more importantly, a qualified leader should not stay in the castle until he ascends the throne. Books alone cannot teach a good emperor. Delphis needs to see things outside the palace, and truly feel what comes from the palace. The customs of the empire, know the value of a bag of seeds, a bottle of ale, and a cow in the market, and understand what each regulation means when it affects the bottom."

"She should see everything around her with her own eyes."

Elena was just an ordinary social animal in her previous life, and she didn't know much about politics. Judging from the performance in the original book, the tyrant Delphis lacked concern for the people. She had never set foot on farmland, and would not consider raising taxes The price behind it, let alone the civilian families who were ruthlessly crushed by the war machine.

She seems to want to spread her hatred to every corner inside and outside the empire.

After listening to Elena's words, Carlotta's brows did not relax, but were still frowning tightly.

"Little Irene, are you so sure that Delphis can sit in that seat?"

From her point of view, Elena's consideration seems to be taken for granted.

For an illegitimate daughter who has been in the palace all year round and has not been favored, it is extremely difficult to seize the throne from the two crown princes.

Elena knew what Carlotta was worried about, and could understand why the other party thought so. She didn't understand the plot of the original work like herself, and she couldn't see the most likely future direction through God's perspective.

"I'm not sure it's not important. After all, Tadel and Andre are not good candidates for a bomb. I can only consider putting the treasure on Delphis."

Having said that, if she didn't know the plot, Elena would not have thought that Delphis would become one of the few empresses in the history of the Callist Empire.

After a moment of silence, Carlota spoke in a low voice.

"I still think it's too risky..."

"As little Irene said, Delphis's spiritual power has not been recorded by anyone, and with the light ink flowers and plant valves that can change the color of her hair and eyes, she will not easily reveal her identity even if she is active outside. "

"But what if His Majesty comes to inspect on a whim one day?"

Elena narrowed her red pupils when she heard this: "During the years Delphis lived in, the emperor has never visited the castle once, and the possibility of him visiting the castle in person is very low."

"Low doesn't mean no." Carlotta added.

"Little Irene, you are a little irrational... This is simply a gamble..."

Bet that she can take Delphis away without anyone noticing under Kantor's nose, and bet that this illegitimate daughter who is not cared about by anyone can continue to maintain a low sense of existence.

"Sister Carlotta..."

Elena blinked, leaning her head lightly on the woman's fragrant shoulder, her pink lips parted slightly.

"...I did take a gamble."

From the fact that Delphis discovered Annuo to be equal to Elena in advance, her plan went awry.

Elena originally planned to reveal the truth to Delphis slowly, preferably at the same time as the enrollment time of the Isabeth Academy of Magic in the second year, so as to calm Delphis' emotions a little bit, and let this The blonde loli understood why she spent less time in the castle.

It's a pity that the two broken bottles of one-way illusion potion greatly advanced this process, and she had to face this problem earlier.

Reason told Elena that taking Delphis out of the castle would bring her endless troubles and dangers, and it also ran counter to her idea of ​​low-key development.

From the fact that the eldest prince was in contact with the Bulstrode family to help him rise to power, to the subsequent selection of the establishment of a newspaper, starting from a more secretive perspective of public opinion, rather than directly meddling in military affairs, everything Elena did was striving Win without being noticed.

Only in this move of Delphis, she made a very dangerous move.

The safest course of action is undoubtedly to continue to maintain the status quo, and try to use An Nuo's identity to slowly influence Delphis. If she really can't be influenced, it is not a bad idea to let her be a puppet emperor.

but...

Thinking of Delphis lying in her arms that night, and hearing her say that one day in the future, she would regain her freedom, those eyes that were as bright as emeralds, Elena was shaken again.

Delphis is very dependent on her elder sister, and sometimes her contacts with other purposes seem dim in the face of this dependence.

"If I win the bet, Delphis will understand my feelings for doing this, and it will also allow the current emperor and future emperor to grow earlier."

"I asked Sister Carlotta about accompanying her, so Delphis could enter the Isabeth Academy of Magic to study magic."

"She's going to have the ability to wear that crown on every level."

Elena's words fell on Carlotta's ears, her cold voice was like a warbler's cry, the woman was silent for a moment, and then spoke slowly.

"Little Irene..."

"Did you dote on your imperial sister so much?"

Having said that, Carlota probably understood that Elena was willing to take the risk because doing so would really help her realize her political investment in the future, and on the other hand, it was out of affection for Delphis. care.

Carlota told Elena very early on that even if she did not support any crown prince, her status as count and her dedication to the empire were enough to protect her from harm.

But even so, Elena still chose to support Delphis, and took a risk that she shouldn't have taken.

If it's only about benefits, Elena doesn't need to take risks at all, the only possibility is that she really likes this little sister who calls her sister every day.

Elena heard the words and didn't speak for a long time, her eyes turned around Carlotta's smooth and delicate neck, and fell on the printed curtains behind the woman and the deep and empty night sky, she recalled Delphis hugging her tightly, raised her face to Like a goodnight kiss.

"I just think she deserves to be loved."

"That's all."

When judging whether something is self-interested, there is always something higher than reason.

After Elena finished speaking, the two people on the bed didn't speak any more. Carlotta inserted her fingers into Elena's hair, shaking her jade fingers lightly, twisting a few strands of silver threads into thin strips.

I don't know how long it has passed, there is a faint sound of insects from outside the attic, and the faint fragrance of flowers and plants is carried into the room by the evening wind, bringing a refreshing feeling to the skin from the inside out.

"Since little Irene really decided to do this, then I won't say anything unnecessary."

After some conversation, Carlotta realized that Elena did not make the decision in a flash of her head, she clearly understood the pros and cons, and also knew the price she would pay if things were exposed.

"After you take Delphis out of the castle, if the palace is not convenient for her to live in, you can also let the fourth princess come to the manor for a short stay."

Although Cantor and Delphis haven't seen each other for several years, the latter often goes in and out of the palace, which will increase the probability of revealing his identity.

Elena's heart warmed when she heard this, and she slightly bent her knees hidden under the blanket.

Taking in Delphis means that Carlotta also participated in the action of letting the illegitimate daughter escape from confinement. If the matter is exposed, Cantor will inevitably anger the latter.

What Carlota said was to show her attitude. No matter what Elena did, she would stand by her side and advance and retreat with her.

"Let's see when the time comes, I guess Delphis might not believe me so easily."

Aside from being moved, Elena is not going to let Carlota go through this muddy water. First, she doesn't want to affect her aunt's future. unfamiliar environment.
