The Elder Council's Plot
December 25th.
It was supposed to be a day of celebration, but to the people of J Country, it was a very heavy day.
Because on this day, J Country's Princess Freya passed away, and the whole country was in mourning.
And Princess Lilith had fallen ill because of the huge blow, and was now recuperating in the palace.
Of course, this was only the official explanation.
But was it really so?
Absolutely not.
"Please stay, Princess Lilith is currently recuperating!" The maid's voice rang out outside the ward, but she couldn't stop the group of men in black from advancing.
The other party wore sunglasses, took out their documents, and said in an extremely formal tone: "We have received the highest authority of the 18th level to transfer Princess Lilith to a safe place."
"The Elder Council?"
The maids' expressions changed.
"Please move aside."
The leader pushed the maid aside and entered the ward.

When Qiao Qiao regained consciousness, she was already in an unfamiliar place.
Looking at the layout of the surroundings, it should be a basement or a secret room.
Her hands were leaning on the armrests of the chair, unable to move. Standing in front of her was none other than the leader of the Elder Council, Zachesis. She had met him once at the restoration ceremony, and he was also the leader of the radical faction that Freya had mentioned.
"Princess Lilith, I apologize for using such a crude method to bring you here."
He gave her a courtly greeting.
Qiao Qiao looked at him emotionlessly, and her lips curved into a cold smile. "Sir, what do you mean by this? Do you know what the crime of kidnapping a princess is? "
Zachesis shook his head and said, "Please don't say that. Everything we do is to protect your safety. Princess Freya met with misfortune, which proves that you really need our protection."
"Protection? Ha … "
At the mention of this, Qiao Qiao's mood suddenly became agitated. She glared hatefully at the other party and gritted her teeth: "Isn't all of this your doing? Freya's death was caused by people like you! Now you're actually putting on an act here. Disgusting! "
If he really wanted to protect her, why would Freya still encounter such a mishap? Everything was already irreparable, but he was still pretending to be a kind person here. Did he take her for a fool?
If it weren't for the fact that her hands and feet were tied up, Qiao Qiao would have rushed up and slapped him.
How could there be such a shameless person?
Zachsis still had a pleasant expression. He slowly shook his head and sighed. "Why do you have such great enmity towards us? You should know that we have always been protecting you. Shouldn't your real enemy be Ravel's faction? "
"You speak as if you are good people! It's about the same. "
"We've always been good people. Do you still remember the Silva family? Even though they kidnapped you, they didn't hurt you at all. They even planned to send you to the hospital when you were about to have a miscarriage. Isn't that enough to show our sincerity? "
"The Silva family?"
Qiao Qiao remembered the three people who kidnapped her. Indeed, these people didn't hurt her.
"That's right. They were sent by the Elders. The other people who chased after you were Ravel's faction. You saw it too. They are extremely vicious and wanted to kill you. They are your real enemies, while we are your partners who support you."
Qiao Qiao: "…"
Seeing that Qiao Qiao was silent, Zachsis continued to speak with a pleasant expression: "This time, we deeply regret what happened to Princess Freya. In order to prevent you from experiencing the same thing, we used extreme methods to bring you here. We hope you don't mind. Please believe that everything we have done is not to harm you. "
His words sounded very convincing.
Qiao Qiao glanced at her bound hands and raised her head. She sneered at him and said: "Your words can indeed incite others, but your actions have already explained everything. Your Excellency, if Ravel's faction is an enemy, then you definitely can't be considered friends. Because from the beginning, you never intended to make a deal with me peacefully!"
Otherwise, the Silva family wouldn't have kidnapped her.
Now, they wouldn't have tied her up.
They were all hypocrites!
"It seems that you have a lot of prejudice against our faction." Zachsis said regretfully.
Qiao Qiao glared at him, her eyes flashing with the flames of hatred.
"This is not prejudice, because you are not good people!"
"Sigh, then there's no other way."
Zachsis gave his subordinates a look. They immediately stepped forward and restrained Qiao Qiao. One of them took out a syringe from a small silver box.
Seeing the syringe, Qiao Qiao's scalp started to tingle.
She wanted to dodge, but there was no way out.
"What are you going to inject into me?"
Zachsis's expression was very natural. He said casually: "Just some drugs to make you behave, Your Highness Lilith. You're so uncooperative, it's very difficult for us."
"Heh, since the soft approach didn't work, you're using the hard approach? The dignified Elder Council people actually use such despicable methods? Didn't you say you were going to protect me? Why would you bring these things with you to protect me? Your Excellency, don't you think you're very hypocritical? "
"You don't need to provoke me. Your methods of provocation are all leftover from our youth."
As he said that, he ordered his subordinates: "Do it!"
Qiao Qiao's body trembled with anger. She gritted her teeth and said: "You want to use drugs to make me submit? I'm telling you, don't even think about it!"
Zachsis lowered his eyes and said calmly: "Many people say that before the injection, but the truth is, they all submit."
"You …"
Seeing the person approaching her, Qiaoqiao's entire body began to tremble. She was like an isolated and helpless cub, and could only rely on her anger to hide her panic and fear.
"Go away! Don't touch me! "
When one of them pressed down on Qiao Qiao's arm, her struggles became even more intense. "Go away! Go away! "
She glared at Zachsis and said hatefully: "What do you mean you're going to protect me? It's all a lie! You just want to make me your puppet to achieve your ambition of controlling the J Country! "
Zachsis coldly turned his head, his sharp eagle eyes sweeping over Qiao Qiao's body. He suddenly laughed ruthlessly. "What a pity. Even if you realize this, it's useless."
As soon as he said that, another person slowly pushed the syringe into Qiao Qiao's vein.
What did it feel like to have the cold liquid slowly enter the body?
It was like a venomous snake coiled around the body, its cold scales tightly sticking to the skin. It made one's hair stand on end, but they couldn't break free from that feeling.
Qiao Qiao could only watch as the liquid slowly entered her body.
She used all the strength in her body but couldn't move an inch. Her heart was filled with despair. Now, no one would come to save her. He Shaochen wouldn't, and neither would Freya. She had completely lost the person she could rely on and was all alone.
When he saw that the syringe was completely injected into Qiao Qiao's body, Zachsis turned his head and said to a middle-aged man wearing a white coat beside him: "I'll leave the rest to you. I want to see a completely obedient Qiao Qiao."
