It didn't take long for the messenger sent by Prince White to reach King Ferdinand.

It was none other than Prince White's son, his cousin, Baron Plitt.

The baron was no longer the gentle and unkempt he had been.

However, it can be seen from his slightly infantile chin and slightly erect belly that these are all fake.

Ferdinand didn't poke it, but asked in pretended surprise, "Cousin Plitt, how did you get mixed up like this?"

Baron Plitt is worthy of being a veteran of the "showbiz" in the royal capital, and his acting skills are really top-notch, he heard Ferdinand ask this, and his tears suddenly burst out, and he couldn't cry a little.

It took him a long time before he regained his strength, and said with teary eyes: "Your Majesty, you have to make decisions for me and my father." ”

Then he told his "encounter" as it was, which was really sad for those who heard it and weeping for those who listened.

I heard Baron Plitt cry: "The reason why I am like this is all to blame on the old fox of Marquis Quentin, who tricked me and my father into his house under the pretext of a banquet, and then put them under house arrest......"

"Immediately after that, he took over the magpie's nest and mobilized the army in the name of my father, Prince White, in an attempt to divide the Arthurian kingdom and destroy our Hope family, he ......"

King Ferdinand watched Baron Plit's exaggerated performance, and listened to the other party's unscrupulous lies, and his heart was full of contempt.

However, he still showed indignation on the surface, slapped the table and scolded: "I see, damn old fox, I will say how Uncle White could cooperate with the Cronin family, how could he betray the Kingdom of Arthur." ”

With just two sentences, he removed Prince White from this rebellion.

Baron Pulit was stunned for a moment when he heard this, he didn't expect the other party to believe his words so easily, and he had prepared a lot of rhetoric that was useless.

But that's fine, you don't have to waste your tongue anymore.

Baron Plitter knew that Ferdinand had written to Prince White many times before he came, and had reached some kind of consensus.

His purpose here was merely for Prince White to demonstrate his determination to cooperate with the King.

To put it bluntly, he is a hostage.

Baron Prit, who was as pure as a little sheep, did not yet know himself

His own situation, complaining of his own suffering, and at the same time expressing his loyalty to the Hope family, as well as his fierce loyalty to the Arthurian Kingdom.

Ferdinand patted Baron Plitt on the shoulder as a sign of comfort, and then ordered someone to prepare tea and snacks to wash the dust for the other party.

After a few simple bites of food, the next step is the main event.

Ferdinand sipped his wine and asked, "Where is Uncle White now?"

He actually asked knowingly, in order to find an introduction to the next topic.

Baron Plitt hurriedly replied: "My father is now under house arrest in Marseille, the old nest of the Cronin family, and he urgently needs your help, and only you can save him. ”

Ferdinand nodded with a serious face, but inwardly he scoffed at the claim that Prince White was under house arrest.

If the other party is under house arrest, how do you secretly communicate with the other party?

Of course, there are some things that cannot be said, at least not with this hostage, so as not to frighten the other party.

So he pretended to sigh helplessly, and said in a low tone: "This is my dereliction of duty as a nephew, which has made Uncle White suffer. ”

"If I had seen the wolf ambitions of the Cronin family earlier, he wouldn't have suffered so many crimes, and I would have made amends to him in the future. ”

Baron Pullett showed a grateful expression when he heard this: "I came here this time to explain the whole story, so as not to misunderstand your majesty and my father. ”

Ferdinand sneered secretly, and also pretended to be confused: "Now that the matter is clear, I naturally won't blame Uncle White anymore." ”

Then, his face suddenly became serious, and he asked, "Is there anything important for Uncle White to ask your cousin to come over?"

Baron Pulit took a sip of tea and replied, "Naturally, there is something important. ”

His expression became equally serious, and after looking around, after making sure that there were no outsiders, he said mysteriously: "Father asked me to tell you that he is still in control of part of the military forces of Hailan Province. ”

"He hopes to have the opportunity to cooperate with His Majesty, cooperate with the outside world, and join forces to destroy the Cronin family, so as to eliminate this great harm for the Hope family and contribute to the prosperity of Arthur's kingdom. ”

Ferdinand couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this, this time it was not a disguise, but a real joy.

If you can dismantle the Cronin family from within

The defense system of the clan, he will recover Hailan Province half a year ahead of schedule, and at the same time save a lot of manpower and material resources.

But Ferdinand did not lose his mind because of his pleasure, and asked again: "How do you need my cooperation?"

Baron Pullett groaned for a moment, and then said with some embarrassment: "Actually, what you need to do is very simple, as long as you reveal the truth about your father's rebellion. ”

"If you spread the news that my father was under house arrest by the Cronin family, those deceived Hailan Provincial Sergeants will naturally realize that they have been deceived and know that their actions are wrong. ”

"Then my father ascended to the heights and shouted, and then you declared that you were not guilty of the past against these soldiers, and that their hearts would surely be to the kingdom and to your majesty. ”

"At that time, no matter how much the Cronin family tosses, I'm afraid they won't be able to make any waves. ”

Hearing this, Ferdinand sneered to himself.

I think it's your father, Prince White, right?

He has already understood the other party's thoughts, isn't he just afraid that he will find a post-account?

If he rehabilitates Prince White, he will not be able to trouble the other party in the name of treason in the future.

As a prince, as long as it is not treason, there is really no crime that can punish the other party.

At the same time, Prince White also saved the sergeants of Hailan Province by the way, and these people will definitely be grateful to him.

That is to say, as long as Ferdinand does what Prince White said, not only can he not deprive the other party of his rights afterwards, but he will also be greatly praised.

After all, the other party was coerced into rebellion, and in the end helped him destroy the wolf's ambitions, this is simply a great hero!

Prince White directly gained fame and fortune.

Without the Cronin family, a tiger hidden behind the scenes, he could live a more nourishing life, and at the same time won the loyalty of the soldiers of Hailan Province.

This trick is really wonderful!

Although King Ferdinand was disgusted in his heart, he agreed very happily: "Yes!"

Ferdinand has his own plans, it's okay not to settle accounts after the fall, and it's okay not to deprive the other party of the prince's title and rights, but the two counties he ate will definitely not spit out again.

From now on, the power that the Cronin family once held will be firmly in their own hands.
