Chapter 1327: Books Are Just Books

After the fall of the Ryan family, Ilsa held a banquet in the Baiyang Palace to entertain the civil and military officials of the central government.

Although this banquet was nominally just an ordinary banquet held by Ilsa on a whim, it was actually a celebration.

Celebrating the successful revenge for Gale and the successful uprooting of the Ryan family.

However, only Ilsa and Camille knew the real purpose of the banquet.

Helping her father to successfully avenge and adding a large amount of income to the country - these happy things added up to make Ilsa very happy.

Because she was too happy, Ilsa even drank at the banquet.

Because Ilsa was still young, she basically didn't drink much, so her alcohol tolerance was not very good, and her face flushed after drinking a few glasses of wine.

Knowing that she was persuaded by Camille, Jacob, Bankro and others, Ilsa finally let go of her anger and stopped drinking.

However, she stopped rescuing at this time, and it was obviously too late. Ilsa was already a little drunk at this time.

"Your Majesty! Thanks to your wise leadership and notification, our country has recovered from the trauma of last year's war at an astonishing speed..."

...

At the banquet, some slick ministers stood up from time to time to flatter Elsa.

In normal times, these ministers who are good at flattering are quite annoying.

However, at the banquet, these ministers who are good at flattering played a positive role, making the whole banquet more lively.

Because she was a little tipsy, Elsa's mind was a little unclear.

After hearing the flattery of these ministers, Elsa smiled slightly, and then said:

"The empire can be what it is now... It's not all my credit... It's also thanks to... You all..."

"At the same time, it's also thanks to... that set of books..."

Hearing Elsa's words, Su Cheng, who was sitting not far from Elsa, raised his eyebrows.

Elsa then said:

"That set of books... is really a good set of books... contains many interesting stories..."

"After reading that set of books... your ability to govern the country... will definitely increase..."

Elsa's words aroused the interest of many ministers in the banquet hall, and the ministers asked Elsa what book it was.

"Your Majesty." Bankro asked first, "May I ask what book it is? It is so powerful, can we take a look?"

But Elsa did not say more on this topic.

……

The next day, Elsa supported her head that seemed to be about to explode and climbed out of bed with difficulty.

Elsa finally experienced the power of a hangover.

Elsa now only felt that her head was about to break into several pieces.

But she was the emperor after all.

She was the emperor of the Britannia Empire.

No matter how hard or tired she was, or even if her head was about to explode, she had to deal with today's state affairs-this was the obligation of Elsa as the emperor of the Britannia Empire.

So she still forced herself to walk slowly into the study, ready to deal with today's state affairs with Camille.

...

...

"Good morning, Your Majesty." Camille smiled bitterly at Ilsa, "It seems that you have a serious hangover..."

"Yes..." Ilsa also smiled bitterly, "I really drank too much last night... I didn't say anything nonsense after I got drunk last night?"

"No, I didn't say anything nonsense."

Camille suddenly remembered something, so he paused.

Then he added:

"Although you didn't say anything nonsense, Your Majesty said something very interesting."

Camille repeated what Ilsa said last night in a concise language.

After learning that she had said such a thing last night, Ilsa was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly:

"It seems... it is quite easy to talk nonsense after being drunk - this is true."

"So -" Camille asked, "Does that set of books not exist?"

"No,

This set does exist."

"It's just that - it's not that magical."

"That set of books does record a lot of interesting stories."

"If you study it carefully, you can really gain a lot."

"But - after reading it, your ability to govern the country will be greatly improved, this kind of talk is really too much."

"After all - books are just books after all."

After saying that, Ilsa smiled meaningfully.

"Don't be too superstitious about the power of books."

...

...

"Cheng, you got up really early today."

Kaylor, who was preparing breakfast in the kitchen today, looked at Su Cheng who had just walked into the kitchen with a surprised look on his face.

"Yeah."

Su Cheng smiled.

"Maybe it's because I went to bed too early last night."

After that, Su Cheng walked to Carol's side and helped Carol prepare today's breakfast - bread.

Su Cheng would occasionally help Carol prepare meals like now.

Just when the two were busy silently, Carol suddenly broke the silence:

"Cheng... Should I... not recommend Camille from the beginning..."

Su Cheng's face flashed with surprise.

Turning his head, he looked at Carol who looked lost in front of him.

"In the past few months, I have been hearing people around me say that Camille is a very cruel person..."

"She did a lot of... very cruel things..."

"Did I make a mistake in recommending Camille..."

…

…

After Su Cheng glanced at Kailuoer for a few times, he looked away.

"Don't feel guilty, Carol."

Su Cheng said softly.

"You just provided a reference."

"I am the one who ultimately decides whether to introduce Camille to His Majesty."

"The person who decides whether to appoint Camille is His Majesty."

"If Camille really did a lot of wrong things, then the people who are responsible for it are Ilsa and I."

"Rather than just giving you an opinion."

Speaking of this, Su Cheng changed into a half-joking tone.

"If someone really comes to settle accounts with you about Camille, you don't have to worry."

"I will use the Knights of Michael to drive away all these people who are looking for trouble for you."

After hearing Su Cheng's words, the look of disappointment on Kailuoer's face gradually disappeared.

"Cheng, thank you..."

Before Kai Luoer finished thanking her, her expression suddenly changed.

After quickly raising his right hand to cover his mouth, he quickly rushed to the nearby trash can.

"Ugh! Ugh!"

Then he started retching violently.

Su Cheng, who was startled, rushed to Kailuoer's side, caressing Kailuoer's back and asked urgently:

"Kylor, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Carol's retching went away as quickly as it came.

Looking at Carol who was wiping his mouth, Su Cheng suddenly realized something.

"Kylor, could you..."

After wiping his mouth clean, Carol showed a gentle and apologetic smile to Su Cheng.

"Sorry, Cheng."

"It looks like I'm going to trouble you to think of a name for the child again."
