Chapter 283 The quarrel between mother and daughter

"Has she figured it out?" Mrs. Ogesha's first reaction was not surprise, but suspicion.

After all, this girl Lacus could persist in the "prison" for ten days without begging for mercy, which shows that she is not a childish rebellion of a little girl, but really has some kind of belief.

So Ogesha was not in a hurry to see her daughter.

She pondered for a moment, and then asked the maids thoughtfully: "Are you sure that Lux hasn't seen anyone else these days?"

"Yes." The maids replied seriously: "Mrs. Ogesha, we have always strictly monitored Miss Lux according to your wishes and did not give her any chance to contact the outside world."

"In the past ten days, except for Miss Sona who can come into the room every day to keep her company, Miss Lux has never seen anyone else."

"And when Miss Sona and Miss Lux were playing together, we were always watching."

They were sure that Sona and Lux ​​didn't talk about Janna's thoughts and theories.

After all, Sona is mute. She can't talk even if I ask her to.

"Are you sure there's nothing unusual?" For some reason, Mrs. Ogesha felt a little uneasy.

"Is this abnormal?" The maids thought about it seriously.

"If I have to say something unusual," their expressions became strange, "it would be the relationship between Miss Sona and Miss Lux. Well, it's a bit strange."

Ogesha frowned slightly when she heard this: "Strange?"

"Yes." The maid said: "They sit hand in hand as soon as they meet. After sitting down, they don't chat much. Most of the time they just hold hands and lean on each other, listening to music together."

"I listen to it for hours at a time, and I don't see them loosening their grip."

"Later, they may have felt that sitting and listening to music was too tiring, so they even slept together."

Ogesha: "."

Good guy, the problem between Ran Mo and Ran Feng has not been resolved yet. Will Lux have any weird new problems?

"I'll go take a look." Mrs. Ogesha finally decided to go see her daughter.

Accompanied by the maid, she walked out of the room and within a few steps walked to the "cell" where her daughter was held.

In order to make Lux reflect, Ogesha has been reluctant to see her daughter for several days.

Now that I see it, I realize it.

Lux, who was in jail, actually became more energetic as she sat.

She is not at all decadent as she was in the first few days. She is neatly dressed and tidied up. Her pink and tender little face no longer has that kind of rebellious expression, it only represents maturity.

and the serenity of a firm will.

"It's over." Ogesha confirmed that Lux was definitely not introspecting.

She asked bravely: "Lux, you said you figured it out?"

"Yes, mother." Lux said, "I figured it out."

"What have you figured out?" Mrs. Ogesha desperately waited for the verdict.

But Lux's answer gave her a surprise: "I understand, after all, I am the legitimate daughter of the Crownguard family, and I have an obligation to contribute to ensuring the inheritance of the family."

"What?" Ogesha was slightly startled.

She was afraid to think of her ears: "Lux, you"

You prodigal girl, finally remembered that your surname is Crown Guard?

"Yes, even if I am no longer a noble, I am still Lux Crownguard, the child of you and your father, and the sister of brother Galen." Lux said sensibly.

Then she solemnly announced: "So, in order to ensure the inheritance of the Crown Guard family, and for the future of you and your father and brother, I decided -"

"I won't go back to Demacia. I want to officially join the Windleader Association!"

Ogesha: "."

"Lux! You"

"I'm just thinking about the Crownguard family." Lux answered confidently.

"Mother, haven't you seen that the leader will surely rise in the future? The wind of change will blow throughout Runeterra. How can Demacia be immune to this wave?"

"Think about it, what did the Myrdalda family of Noxus do?"

"After Miss Mel became the leader, did they take Miss Mel back and lock her up like you, mother?"

Of course not.

The Myrdalda family was quite opposed to Mel's self-assertion at first.

But when the Wind Leader established a foothold in Zaun, and even the goddess Janna was dismissed, the Myrdalda family immediately changed their attitude 180 degrees. Taking advantage of Mel's position in the Wind Leader Association, they happily

He came to establish a relationship with the leader.

"." Mrs. Ogesha suddenly fell silent again.

Of course she understood what her daughter meant.

Hedging your bets, hedging your risks, is what those big families with thousands of years of heritage do.

It's just that the Crownguard family has taken root too firmly in Demacia, and has not had the opportunity to use this trick for hundreds of years. And to this day, the Crownguard family, as a high-ranking nobleman who is separated from the country, has long been inseparable.

Demacia is here.

So Ogesha instinctively did not think about this option.

But Lux thought of it.

"Can you think of this?" Ogesha looked at her young daughter who still had a little baby fat on her face with suspicion: "Tell me, Lux - who taught you these words?"

"Ahem." Lux's face turned slightly red, and her forced mature temperament disappeared in an instant.

"This, you don't need to worry about this." She bit her lip and continued: "Anyway, mother, I am also thinking about the Crown Guard family."

"Runeterra is facing a major change that has never happened in ten thousand years. Don't you want your family to have one more retreat and one more choice in the future?"

Ogesha's heart skipped a beat when she heard this.

Needless to say, after getting to know the extraordinary nature of the leader these days, she was really a little tempted by the proposal.

only

"Right now, the Wind Leader only occupies the city of Zaun, which is still thousands of miles away from us, Demacia. Isn't it too early to consider this now?" Ogesha frowned slightly.

"You have to vote for Janna as early as possible!" Lux said.

After Sona's advice from the experts behind her, she knew that her mother had passed the age where she could reshape her ideals and was completely immune to those beautiful slogans.

So Lacus simply stopped talking about ideals and only talked about interests with her mother:

"Although the Myrdalda family and the Gilaman family that were previously in power in Piltover have lost their previous privileges, they still have strong vitality and considerable influence in Zaun."

"But the Philos family, which made its bet late, has already declined, and only some of the bloodlines of the branch families continue."

"And those wealthy plutocrats, the Alchemy Barons, who chose to resist to the end in front of the leader, are now completely wiped out. Except for the numerous evidence of their dark and cruel past, no traces are left."

"Mother, can't you see this lesson?"

Ogesha: "."

Seeing her mother's silence, Lux quickly struck while the iron was hot and said: "Joining the Wind Leader is ultimately my personal choice. Even if the failure is exposed in the end, it will only cause the Crownguard family to lose some face."

"And if the leader can really achieve great things, then the investment you make in the leader today will reap huge rewards in the future."

"Okay, okay, I know everything you want to say." Ogesha helplessly stopped her daughter's awkward persuasion, which was comparable to memorizing a text.

It doesn't take a child like Lux to teach these principles, she already knows them all.

However, as the wife of the patriarch of the Crownguard family and one of the most die-hard patriots in Demacia, she instinctively finds it difficult to accept this betrayal of the kingdom, the royal family, and her own class.

But what Lux said was right.

If we only consider the interests of the Crownguard family, since this girl is determined to become a "traitor", there is nothing she can do to stop her.

Then why not go with the flow and let Lux represent the Crownguard family and place a bet on the leader in advance?

Although it is impossible for the leader who pays attention to "saint politics" to give them privileges, if the leader really wins the world in the future, can keep the family safe through Lux, and let the name of Crown Guard continue in another form, then

It's also very good.

"So, what does the leader want?"

"Although I don't know how you, the girl, got in touch with those leaders, Levi and the others asked you to tell me this. They probably want to get some convenience from me now, right?"

Ogesha asked her daughter rudely.

"No, yes." Lux finally became a little more mature.

She tried hard to remember the lines that Sona helped convey, and then she barely managed to make a tie with her mother who was showing off her momentum: "I want your permission, mother, to allow Sona and I to participate in Demacia's Ionian expedition."

."

"What?!" Ogesha was stunned for a moment.

Then she quickly reacted: "Lux, what do you want to do?!"
