Chapter 146: People From the Imperial Palace!

However, whether it was the guards at the city gates or the mages, what they did not know was that…
The reason why the Saint Laurent Magic Academy had such special privileges and was able to fly directly into the city gates was not only because it was the top magic academy on the continent, it was also because Princess Lilia had entered this academy a few years ago.
In addition to that, she was once the disciple of the Royal Great Mage, who was now the strongest mage on the continent. Shen Fa was willing to become the Empire’s Guardian Mage.
Thus, the Saint Laurent Magic Academy had more special privileges in the Empire.
The root reason was still because of Lilia!
In the Imperial Capital’s headquarters of the Magic Union, Lilia’s arrival was greeted by the elders of the union’s headquarters.
They led the students to stay in the headquarters and then chatted with Lilia.
These elders were mostly tier-6 mages, and they were getting older. It was basically impossible for them to become tier-7 mages in their lifetime.
Those tier-7 mages were focused on studying magic and the field, so they naturally did not pay much attention to the common things in the union.
Thus, they left it to these hopeless tier-6 mages to take care of it.
Although they did not have the talent to advance in the path of magic, they exploded with incomparable enthusiasm in taking care of the affairs of the alliance.
The Magic Alliance was managed by them in an orderly manner, thriving day by day.
Although there were inevitably some things that took advantage of their positions, they still turned a blind eye to it in the end, considering that they had contributed greatly.
As long as it wasn’t too excessive, they wouldn’t bother about it.
The elders also understood this, so no matter what they did, they would maintain a certain set of rules.
They wouldn’t overstep it.
People like them, who were obsessed with power, were naturally very respectful towards Lilia, the Princess of the Empire. Regardless of whether it was her talent, background, or strength, she was an exceptionally powerful existence.
At the welcoming meeting, they reported to Lilia about the development and prospects of the alliance in recent years.
This received Lilia’s approval and advice.
The exchange of greetings lasted for an hour.
It was only when Lilia appropriately revealed a hint of fatigue that they respectfully retreated.
After sending them off, Lilia heaved a sigh of relief with some fatigue. She looked at Su Han, who had a smile on his face behind her, and rolled her eyes at him.
“Is it that funny? You haven’t stopped since just now,” Lilia said unhappily.
“Your Highness, I usually think that you’re not afraid of anything when I see your arrogant appearance,” Su Han said with a faint smile.
Just as he was about to speak, he heard someone come in to report.
The people from the Imperial Palace had arrived.
Lilia let out a long breath and asked them to call the people from the Imperial Palace in.
A moment later.
A man dressed in decent clothes and wearing presbyopia gla.s.ses, who looked like a butler, brought a few well-dressed servants into the house.
After seeing Lilia, the old butler immediately led the servants to salute. “Your Highness, I am your humble servant. It is my honor to salute you!”
“Get up!”
Lilia sat on the chair and said calmly, “Why did His Majesty ask you to come?”
This old butler was an old man in the palace. Together with Lilia’s father, he served a total of three kings.
He could be considered a survivor of the incident back then.
Now, he had always followed the current king and served him at all times.
Lilia’s father trusted him very much.
And this old butler was also very powerful — a tier-7 mage.
He was a trump card of the imperial family.
The old butler stood up and raised his head. He was slightly stunned when he saw Su Han standing lazily beside Lilia, but he didn’t say much. After a moment, he replied, “His Majesty heard that you’re back, and is very happy. He wants you to return to the palace to see you.”
“Oh?” Lilia said with a faint smile, “Are you sure it’s not that woman who wants to see me?”
The old butler was silent and did not tire of it. He only bent his waist even more.
Although he did not speak, there were times when silence was equivalent to giving an answer.
“How interesting,” Lilia said with a smile, “I really want to see just what kind of charm this woman has. In a short span of three years, she has charmed His Majesty of the Empire to this extent.”
The old Butler still did not speak.
In these three years, he had personally seen His Majesty being charmed by that woman.
Although up until now, that woman had not made any unreasonable requests, and His Majesty had not abandoned the government because of this.
But he still felt that this was somewhat inappropriate.
It was just that as a servant, there were some things that he could not say.
Now that he heard Lilia’s words, although the old butler agreed in his heart and hoped that Lilia could advise him, he could not say it out loud.
At this moment, he heard Lilia say, “Go back and tell His Majesty that it’s too late today. I will enter the palace to meet him tomorrow.”
“Yes!”
The old butler agreed.
After that, seeing that Lilia did not have any other arrangements, he planned to leave.
However, when he turned around, he hesitated for a moment before saying, “His Majesty has missed you very much during these few years that Her Highness has been away. When you enter the palace tomorrow, Your Highness can share your heartfelt feelings with His Majesty and enlighten His Majesty.”
After saying that, he hurriedly bowed and said, “This old servant is too talkative. Please forgive me, Your Highness.”
“No worries!”
Lilia waved her hand and did not mind.
After watching the old butler leave with his servant and waiting for him to disappear from her sight, the corners of Lilia’s mouth suddenly curled up.
“Is this a subtle reminder to me?”
The old butler’s last sentence seemed to have no meaning, but in fact, it was clearly giving Lilia a signal.
The meaning behind it was nothing more than that during the few years that Lilia had been away, His Majesty had been completely mesmerized and had almost forgotten about Her Highness.
From this, it could be seen that that woman was not someone to be trifled with.
This time, when Her Highness entered the palace, if she wanted to advise His Majesty, it would be best to start with family ties and make His Majesty wake up from his stupor.
To avoid becoming enemies with that woman, it would be easy to suffer losses and so on.
Lilia naturally understood the good intentions behind this.
“Why does it need to be so troublesome?”
Su Han, who was at the side, laughed faintly.
That’s right, why would it be so troublesome?
When Lilia heard Su Han’s words, she was also filled with confidence.
She was going to enter the palace the next day.
At that time, she wanted to see just what kind of person this woman was!
…
The next morning, Lilia changed into a luxurious robe and even specially asked someone to inform Su Han that she was coming.
Su Han also wore a black robe as usual.
After waiting at the door for a long time, Lilia quickly walked out with the male and female servants. The two of them walked towards the palace together.
After five years outside, Lilia’s first return naturally attracted the attention of countless people.
And the ostentation naturally had to be extremely big.
The journey from the Magic Union’s headquarters to the palace had already been organized last night.
