Chapter 2459-2460 Charles
The royal palace, the royal palace in Butaria is very special. A western-style country has an oriental concept in terms of the royal palace. It does not use a huge castle as the royal palace, but it is clearly a royal town with many Palaces of different sizes are like the Forbidden City, but the buildings in the city are full of typical British style.
As a Western-style country, it would not be too surprising to have such a palace. After all, the emperor gave birth to more than a hundred children. There are not so many palaces and they cannot accommodate so many princes and daughters. I don't know how many imperial concubines there are, and there are more and more attendants, servants and guards who take care of the royal family members.
After Xiao Ran came to the palace, he didn't feel any discomfort because of this huge building complex full of majesty. After entering the palace, Xiao Ran did not see the 'great' emperor Charles at the first time, but was taken to a palace that seemed to be specially used to receive foreign ministers, and Jeremiah, Veletta Together, the two sat down in a separate waiting room in the palace.
As for the Bimax who brought them, he separated from Xiao Ran after entering the palace. It is not clear where he went, but it is very likely that he went to meet the emperor.
As for what Bimax said at the airport before, that the emperor was waiting for him, Xiao Ran didn't believe it at all. An emperor who was 'every day' would wait for him, a knight of the round table who was just promoted? Li Xiao Ran knows it's impossible if he thinks about it casually, just listen to a polite word, there's not much need to worry about it.
Besides this sentence, Xiao Ran didn't believe anything that Bimax said in the car, not at all, but at least half of what Bimax said before was true at most, and the rest Half of them are all false, even concealed and deceived. Bimax thought that even if Xiao Ran didn't believe what he said, he was at least a little grateful, but he didn't know that Xiao Ran was completely capable of discerning his inner emotional state. , so as to distinguish whether what he said is true or false.
In Bimax's words, it is true that he wants to get a machine from the Scarlet Knights for him, and it is also true that he wants to set up a benchmark, but this benchmark may not necessarily be him, Xiao Ran, It may also be someone else, but the banner is absolute. Xiao Ran feels that Bimax is more of an enemy who wants to set himself up as the Scarlet Knights. It seems that he wants to confront himself with the Scarlet Knights. There are many uses The ingredients are in it, and the many beautiful words he said are actually sugar-coated cannonballs, just to make him a powerful cannon fodder to attract the Scarlet Knights, so that he can find trouble for the Scarlet Knights, or make trouble for each other, and finally let Bimax to achieve another purpose.
In addition, it is true that Bimax does not have a deep understanding of the Scarlet Knights, and it is true that he is on guard against the Scarlet Knights, but precisely because of this, it is even more necessary for a suitable person to test the depth of the Scarlet Knights. There is absolutely no one more suitable than Xiao Ran, especially after the incident of monitoring Uphelia, there are already obvious conflicts and contradictions between the two sides.
Moreover, Xiao Ran also killed members of the Scarlet Knights.
Besides, the meaning expressed by Bimax now is not the meaning of that Emperor Charles? Otherwise, it wouldn't be possible for him to be called from District 11 for the formal knights of the round table ceremony without any movement for a long time after the Uphelia surveillance incident?
It's strange that there are no messy inside stories, but Xiao Ran doesn't care at all, whether it's the Scarlet Knights, Emperor Charles, Bimax and the entire empire, Xiao Ran doesn't care what they are planning, sugar-coated cannonballs Yes, the candy cane can be eaten and spit back, no, even the cannonball can be swallowed together, isn't it just to test the Scarlet Knights? Isn't it just to trouble the Scarlet Knights? Even if Emperor Charles and Bimax didn't have such an idea, Xiao Ran was prepared to do so himself, if he didn't make a fool of those idiots, that was definitely not his style of doing things, even Charles was within Xiao Ran's target, whoever took advantage of whom Really bad.
Sitting in the waiting room, Xiao Ran was very calm, drinking the tea brought by the attendant, looking leisurely and leisurely. Compared to Xiao Ran's relaxed attitude, Jeremiah and Veletta were much more serious, even if When sitting, he always looks up with his chest up and his head up. Apart from taking a sip of the tea in his cup, he doesn't do any other unnecessary movements at all.
This time I waited for two or three hours, and Xiao Ran didn't care how long he waited at all, making him wait here was nothing more than a trick of some superiors, Xiao Ran knew the truth about it, so he didn't mind at all Emperor Charles would do this, and it doesn't hurt to wait a while, and it doesn't bother him to drink tea and take a nap when he is bored, just treat it as a rest.
Finally, when the door sounded softly, and an attendant walked in to inform Xiao Ran that Emperor Charles wanted to meet him, both Jeremiah and Veletta seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. After all, they were sitting in the palace. It was really uncomfortable for the talking ones to just sit like this. Now that they could finally meet the great emperor of Butaria, it was not an exaggeration to say that they were excited in their hearts, and it was true that they were a little nervous.
But after Xiao Ran stood up, he pushed the two of them down, and said to them: "There's no need for you to go there, you don't feel comfortable staying here, go wait for me outside the palace."
Jeremiah was stunned for a moment when he heard Xiao Ran's words, but Veletta, as a woman, was indeed much more sensitive than Jeremiah, so she immediately reacted and pulled Jeremiah's arm, yes Looking at Xiao Ran, he nodded and said, "Understood, we will wait outside for your lord."
Xiao Ran nodded and walked towards the attendant who pushed the door in, nodded slightly to him: "Please ask someone to take the two of them out of the palace."
The attendant bowed respectfully: "I will arrange it later, Sir Knight."
"Let's go."
After both Xiao Ran and the attendants left, Jeremiah came to his senses, and then smiled wryly: "Indeed, we are not qualified to meet His Majesty now, not because of our status, but because we are criminals, if not If His Royal Highness Euphilia and Your Excellency are concerned, we probably don’t even have the qualifications to come to this place.”
Veretta patted Jeremiah on the shoulder: "Actually, if we are not allowed to pass, it is the adults who want to protect us. Otherwise, if His Majesty asks us why we failed to protect His Highness Clovis and punishes us, the adults will not Just to excuse us, if you don’t go, His Majesty won’t see us, so naturally these things won’t happen.”
Following the attendant who led the way, Xiao Ran also passed many buildings on the road, and finally came to a magnificent dome building. When the attendant stopped, Xiao Ran also watched the guards on both sides stop.
"Master Knight, Your Majesty will be waiting for you inside. You can go in by yourself, and go straight along the red carpet. I have to arrange for others to lead your subordinates to leave, so I will take my leave first."
Xiao Ran nodded, glanced at the opened gate in front of him, and the guards on both sides of the gate, and walked in directly.
After walking through the long corridor, passing groups of patrolling soldiers, walking along a red carpet, and coming to a door again, he also saw Bimax standing outside the door.
Bimax nodded to Xiao Ran with a smile: "Sorry for keeping you waiting, Your Majesty has a lot of things to deal with before, and now all of them have been dealt with, so I'll wait for you inside, come in with me. By the way, If you have a weapon, hand it over to the guard next to you, and you don’t need to bring any weapon to meet His Majesty.”
Xiao Ran nodded with a smile. He didn't bring any weapons. When he left District 11, the only thing he took with him was the clothes and masks on his body, which were carried by Jeremiah and Veletta. With BIT on hand, there is no need to bring useless firearms.
Seeing Xiao Ran's motionless appearance, Bimax probably knew what was going on, turned around and waved to the soldiers outside the door, and the soldiers pushed the gate open from left to right. After walking ahead without hesitation, Xiao Ran followed Bimax through the gate with steady steps.
Behind the gate is a large meeting hall, with a gold-rimmed red carpet in the middle, and a row of heavy chairs on both sides. Not far in front of it is a step, and above the step is a throne. Emperor Charles of Butaria is sitting on the throne at this time.
Bimax led Xiao Ran to the bottom of the steps, put his hands on his chest and bent down: "Your Majesty, Lelouch Knight Xiao has arrived."
Xiao Ran's eyes swept across the closed-eyed Charles on the throne, and he smiled leisurely in his heart. He also imitated Bimax's way, patted his chest and bent down, and said as the Romans did: "Lelouch Xiao has seen His Majesty .”
Bimax told Charles that Xiao Ran had already done this kind of behavior without further ado. From Xiao Ran's point of view, it was a full-fledged fault. The sound of opening the door just now was not too loud but not too quiet. It was Charles who was sitting on the throne. To the extent that it can be heard, and this white-haired curly man resting his hands on the throne and supporting his head, he just waited for Bimax to speak before slowly opening his eyes. This kind of B personality Xiao Ran said that he was a bit unable to learn.
His eyes slowly opened, and his body slowly sat upright. His majestic gaze fell on Xiao Ran, who was touching his chest and bending over. Charles slowly stood up, shook his cloak, and said slowly in a majestic and heavy voice. He said, "Stand up straight, Knight Bimax, Knight Lelouch."
Bimax and Xiao Ran stood up straight when they heard the words, and the white-haired curly Charles on the steps also focused his eyes on Xiao Ran: "Lelouch Xiao, is this your name?"
Xiao Ran nodded lightly, neither humble nor overbearing: "Yes, Your Majesty, the name Lu Luxiu Xiao has been with me since I came to this world."
When Charles asked such a question, Xiao Ran didn't understand what was going on. To Charles, the name Lu Luxiu might also be a rather special existence. It was almost impossible to say that he didn't know about Lu Luxiu's current situation. At most, it is not clear that Lu Luxiu transformed into ZERO, obtained Geass, killed Clovis, and handed Nunnally to Xiao Ran.
Moreover, the real Lelouchi was in the eleventh district right now, and Xiao Ran, the person who faked Lelouchi's name, also came out of the eleventh district. As an emperor, it was normal for Charles to ask a little more thoughtfully.
But Xiao Ran didn't lie, the name Lu Luxiu has indeed been with him since he came to this world.
Charles nodded slightly: "Knight Lelouch, why don't you take off your mask? Could it be that your eye disease is so serious that you can't bear it in such a room, or is it that you can't show your true face to the public?"
"Of course not, Your Majesty." Xiao Ran smiled slightly and said, "I'm just worried that taking off the mask will scare Your Majesty. Since Your Majesty doesn't mind, I will just take it off."
Xiao Ran raised his hand slowly and touched his mask, but in his heart he was wondering why Charles asked him to take off the mask, to confirm that he was not that Lelouch? Or do you think the mask is in the way and want to confirm his true identity? Or, do you want to use GEASS to modify his memory?
Xiao Ran took off the mask, but his eyes were slightly closed and did not open. Charles nodded slightly after seeing the real face under the mask of Xiao Ran, but he was a little dissatisfied that Xiao Ran took off the mask but did not open it. Eyes, but at this point, Charles did not continue to order Li Ran to open his eyes, of course it is not impossible for him to do so, but as a king, there is no need to reveal other people's secrets.
And Xiao Ran's requirement for becoming a knight is not to do anything he doesn't want to do. Although Charles doesn't know whether Xiao Ran will refuse to open his eyes, there is no need to make such an attempt.
Charles nodded lightly, and Bimax whispered beside Xiao Ran, "That's fine."
Xiao Ran closed his eyes and smiled slightly, and put the mask back on his face. At that moment just now, he wasn't really worried about whether Charles would let him open his eyes. In the end, it would be that Xiao Ran was at a disadvantage. It's a big deal. It is to expend some energy to forcibly control Charles and Bimax, which is good for Xiao Ran and not bad.
The only thing to worry about is the Scarlet Knights. In the process of their contact with Charles, if there are high-level participants with a spiritual orientation, they are likely to notice something different from Charles and Bimax. Sure, this would probably cause some unnecessary troubles, and it was precisely because of this that Xiao Ran had no real intention to control Charles at this time.
