Chapter 286: Gossip (Part 1)
While everyone was happy, Lan Yi suddenly rushed in from outside.
His face was more solemn than ever.
Lu Yao has never seen him like this.
It may be due to the excellent genes of the Peacock family. No matter what happens to Lan Yi, no matter how panicked he is, he will always look steady.
But now the calmness on his face is completely gone, only panic.
Lu Yao tilted her head slightly and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
Lan Yi swallowed and became nervous.
It seemed that she was doing psychological construction for herself, and it took a long time before she began to answer Lu Yao's question.
Lan Yi: "The Lan family asked you to return Lan Ze, they seem to know that you have a good relationship with the new king, and deliberately bypassed the new king and went to the elders home."
Lu Yao is a little puzzled, hasn't the elders been silent all the time?
How can I be invited by the Lan family all of a sudden? This is too unexpected.
The little cubs still don't know what the Elder House means.
But that doesn't mean adult orcs and adult humans don't know what they are.
The House of Elders is a department established by the empire in order not to let the royal family dominate and to prevent wrong policies.
Most of the people inside are family children passed down from generation to generation.
There are very few Imperial citizens who have passed various tests and entered the House of Elders to work.
In general, they do not have a decision-making role and are an idle department.
But once there are orcs or human beings who get more than half of the votes in favor of the House of Elders, the House of Elders can act as a representative to appeal for the weak.
The House of Elders is more like a spiritual mascot than the royal family with real power.
But this mascot is a sacred point of pilgrimage in the eyes of the citizens of the Empire.
It represents the last way that ordinary citizens of the empire can have and challenge the royal family.
If the first-generation elders house is indeed a way for the common people to resist their fate.
Then the House of Elders has become a playground for nobles with the development of the interstellar empire.
Ordinary people and beasts need to go through layers of screening if they want to enter the House of Elders. There are very few who can enter the core department. Most of them are powerful, and behind them stand the corrupt kingship.
An Luoyu discovered this problem after he became the new king.
But he was controlled by his mother.
The chief elder of the elder house is the patriarch of the crocodile family and the father of the former queen.
The second elder is the patriarch of the Peacock family and the deputy head of the Fourth Legion, Lan Yao.
The third elder is the patriarch of the wolf clan and the uncle of the dead second legion commander Cang Ye.
The House of Elders has a total of six families plus a commoner representative, a total of seven votes.
The remaining three families simply do not like to be involved in these things.
Lu Yao's eyes flashed.
I don't have the slightest favor for this new elders' home in the eyes of the world.
When the orc cubs were experimented, they did not come forward.
When the human cubs were persecuted, they did not stand up.
Now it has harmed the interests of the nobles, and when they found the little cubs in their family, they stood up when it was profitable.
Lu Yao restrained her gentle aura, she became a little sharp, and her voice was cold: "What did they do?"
Lan Yi looked at Lu Yao who was different from usual, and felt strange in his heart.
But he didn't hide it, and quickly said what he knew: "They announced the information of Lan Ze, saying that you deliberately did not return the cub."
"Say you used the cub's pure nature to provoke him and his family, and prevent him from going home."
"It is said that you use the cubs to make money, and the natural food you feed them has not been tested, and you treat them as test objects."
"And you..."
Lan Yi carefully glanced at Lu Yao when he said this, as if it was hard to tell.
It seems to be thinking about something.
Lu Yao closed her eyes: "Go ahead, they said something outrageous."
Lan Yi gritted his teeth and stomped his foot: "They also said that there is something wrong with your life experience, and it is because you have a problem yourself that you want to take revenge on them."
After listening, Lu Yao was almost amused: "Don't they tell me what's wrong with my life experience?"
Lan Yi shook his head: "They didn't say it, they just used vague words, which implied that your origin was abnormal."
Lu Yao snorted coldly: "Of course they dare not say it, if they say it, how many soldiers in this empire are abnormal in their mouths."
"If they say it, the sanctimonious skin they put on themselves will fall off."
The orcs in the room were afraid to speak.
The two little cubs found that Lu Yao was in a bad mood.
They looked at each other, and then each stretched out a hand to hold Lu Yao's hand.
Put her cold hand on her face.
Lu Yao felt the temperature of her fingertips and was stunned.
Then she looked at the little cub as if she had suddenly recovered.
The corner of her mouth raised a smile, the gloom in her heart was dispelled a lot, and then she reached out and touched the top of their heads.
Looking at their furry ears, I feel that the world is not so bad.
Lu Yao knew that since the elders house put themselves and the new king together, they would definitely put the orcs of the first legion on their side.
So they stepped on this point in time.
In Helanjia, they attacked themselves when they went out to inquire about the situation because of a suspected Zerg nest.
I thought that without the protection of Helanjia and the others, I would be like those delicate flowers that were protected, and would die when the wind blows.
I thought I would compromise by taking advantage of this opportunity.
It would be too much to look down on myself.
Lu Yao was never a flower raised in a greenhouse, but a tree in a stone growing on the edge of a cliff.
The more difficult it is, the more you will face it.
She has never been someone who lives in the mouths of others, and she will not retreat because of accusations of unrelated people.
Her weakness is only the cubs and the orcs and humans that she has in her heart.
Other people's words can't cause the slightest wave of their own.
Lu Yao opened her brain and logged into her own blog.
The above are all questions, and I want to give my own explanation.
Some even directly asked Lu Yao to hand over the cub.
Lu Yao looked at the clamoring words with cold eyes and was unmoved.
She even had a hard time replying and closed her own account.
Lan Yi carefully looked at Lu Yao's face and asked, "Dean, are you alright?"
Lu Yao shook her head: "It's okay."
She raised her eyes to the cloudy sky, her amber eyes stained with haze.
The sun will rise sooner or later.
The night will pass away.
And the light will surely come to the world.

Lu Yao cub: The two furry are very cute, knock rua! )
