Chapter Forty-Eight: Trouble
"Pretending?" Jessica was stunned by the question.
If someone else said such a thing, the female knight would probably smack him in the face, what kind of joke, where does Leonard look like a scheming person, but after all, it was the idea proposed by the "smart man" William, she still frowned and thought about it seriously.
However, no matter what she thought, she couldn't connect her brother to the careerist.
When the Farrell family entered the Duke's palace, this guy was still sleeping soundly in the Duchess of Aden's bed, and he didn't even know that the family had declared war on the Duke of Didon. So angry that his father almost broke his leg, how can a person pretend to be like this?
Jessica said with some hesitation: "William, I think you may have some misunderstanding of Leonard, his usual performance doesn't look like he pretends, he should really be a waste...... I mean it's ridiculous. ”
William recalled his "experience" in his previous life and nodded in approval of Jessica's judgment.
Leonard Farrell is indeed a very "ridiculous" person, even after unifying Fran and becoming the new monarch of the empire, those absurd and unruly behaviors have never stopped, and even ordered his third leg to be printed on the publicly available Kingor, which really doesn't look like a pretend.
But then he shook his head and said thoughtfully, "You're right, but have you ever considered that he does things ridiculously and likes to eat, drink and be merry, but that doesn't mean he's a useless person." Even these so-called bad habits are his best protective color. ”
William felt that he should have grasped the truth.
After all, such people are not uncommon in history, such as Liu Bang, he is a person who has no "royal manners", he is drunk and lustful, full of swear words and likes to scold people, and behaves rudely, pees in the Confucian hat that visits him, and even pushes his own child out of the car when he escapes......
It overthrew the aristocracy that lasted for nearly two thousand years.
He was rude and rude, he was drunk and lustful, but this did not conflict with the fact that he created the imperial industry of the Han Dynasty for 400 years.
The more William thought about it, the more he felt that his judgment was quite reliable, Leonard Farrell was indeed a person who liked to eat, drink and have fun, but that didn't prevent him from being an old silver coin at the same time.
Although he is a very nonsense person, but in his previous life, he didn't laugh until the end? Even those Jin Gede with DIO printed on them were bought by many people as collectors, making him make a lot of money.
Thinking of those stick-like objects on Kingod, William couldn't help but show a smug smile, although I have never beaten you before, and you have hung on the city gate, but there is one aspect that I still won, at least I have a leg longer than yours.
"William. Jessica's voice dragged him back from his thoughts as he ran farther and farther away.
"Huh?" William came back to his senses after a long time.
"Protective Color...... What color?" asked the knight, a little confused.
"Protective color is ...... Well...... For example, if you have a black bear, if you run into the white snow, you will be spotted at once, but if you dye yourself green and lie on a large green grass, you will have a hard time spotting it, and this is what the protective color means. ”
"What do you mean...... Leonard is the green black bear?"
"......" William was a little flustered when asked, although it is not wrong, but I always feel that you do not seem to be the same thing as I think.
He shook his head and shook off those messy thoughts, and said with a serious face: "I mean, your brother is actually not simple, he should be planning something, and may even have launched his own plan, rather than worrying about his safety, you might as well worry about yourself first." ”
"Worried about myself?"
Jessica burst out laughing.
"William, how can I say that he is also a third-order professional, no matter in that family, he is a rare talent, even if he lets you go without permission, it won't really be a big deal, are you thinking too much?"
She smiled and turned her head to William, "Do you want to coax me to join the queen? Yes, I don't really care about the surname Farrell, as long as my brother is alive, I don't care if the Farrell family is destroyed."
However, I do think that Her Majesty the Queen to whom you are loyal seems to have little chance of winning, and if you meet you on the battlefield in the future, remember to report your name, and maybe I will spare your life!"
William hid behind his face and smiled, the queen really has little chance of winning, even if she wins against you, she will be picked by the three churches.
But it's still much better than the current Farrell family, isn't it? At least she still has the possibility of fluttering twice, but you guys really have zero chance of winning.
Leonard Farrell didn't think of himself as a member of the Farrell family like you, and he didn't do a good job of colluding with the three major churches behind his back, so I guess he is ready to start cheating.
The female knight naturally didn't know what William was thinking, she reached out and stroked Xiaobai's sturdy back, and asked with some curiosity: "William, you seem to know my brother very well, did the secret agents of the royal family ever pay attention to him?"
The corners of William's mouth grinned, embarrassed, the royal family is a (poor) and (poor) teacher, and the queen does not (have) to (have) (money) to support spies at all, and even this year's military expenses are borrowed from the Fortune Church by mortgaging antiques, but if she has the money to buy two spies, she will not be found out by you when you touch the door.
He nodded amusedly, "That's right, the royal family spies have carefully examined your brother and found that he is carrying out a terrible plan. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, William felt the female knight's waist stiffen. She strangled the little whites with a solemn face, turned her head and said with a shocked face: "Are you serious?"
William was a little confused when asked, but there was no such thing as a secret agent. He waved his hand and said, "Fake, I'll just say it casually, just listen to it." ”
The female knight stared closely at William's face, she couldn't see it very clearly because of the mask covering, but she could still see that the expression on William's face was quite serious (facial paralysis).
It's not like a joke at all, but did the royal agents really find something? Leonard, is that guy really planning something?
The female knight's heart suddenly became confused, she pursed her somewhat dry lips, and her two long legs bent and stretched, and she turned directly on the horse's back, eagerly grabbing William's shoulders.
"William, if you really know anything, look before me...... No, I beg you! Please tell Leonard what he's planning! He can't fight his father! I can't watch him killed!"
William was a little annoyed by her sincere gaze.
What's the matter with you? I'll seriously analyze you, you said that I think too much, I just talk nonsense, you think I know the inside information, right? Conspiracy theories are in the advanced stage of cancer, right? It's thanks to you that you were born on the Arcane Continent, if you were born on Earth, your salary of eight million a year would not be enough for others to cheat!
Seeing that he stared at him and didn't speak, the muscles on Jessica's face twitched, and she gritted her teeth and summoned a touch of shadow energy, pressing it on her heart.
"Jessica Farrell swears that if the man in front of me tells me Leonard's news, I will be his subordinate and be driven away for the rest of my life. If you break your oath, you are willing to be ......"
Seeing that she was about to pronounce the name, William hurriedly reached out and covered it, but Jessica leaned back to dodge it.
The knightess bent her right knee to hold William's hand, and her left leg rested firmly on his breastplate, a position that would never prevent William from taking the oath unless he broke her leg bone.
"If you break your oath, may you be dragged into the abyss by the shadow of the god Hodor sitting, and your soul and body will become a people of shadows, drifting in the abyss forever until the day of the end!"
Hearing that name appear, William only felt his eyes darken.
It's over!
