Chapter 188: The Successors of the Romanov Family
In the inner imperial city, in a palace decorated with solemn decorations, in the empty hall, an old man dressed in simple clothes stood anxiously behind a slender man in gorgeous palace clothes, and kept saying something, but there was no change in expression from this man's face, as if what the old man said had nothing to do with him.

"Young master, why aren't you in a hurry!" the old man standing behind the man looked at him anxiously. "The voice just now must have been that of the Right Minister, and this kind of laughter can only be known in the eyes of us old people! Young people like you don't know how terrible he is. ”
"Didn't you say it just now, this laughter means that Lord Right Prime Minister has already decided who to support to be the future emperor of the empire, since this matter has been concluded, then what do I have to worry about, as you said, Lord Right Minister's strength I believe you know better than me, not to mention that the most powerful mage group in the empire is in his hands, if such a powerful force supports whom, that person will definitely be able to sit on the throne, what's the use of me being anxious, it is better to be my free prince in peace and stability. The slender man in a gorgeous palace robe waved his hand to signal the old man not to be too nervous.
"But if you think so, it doesn't mean that your opponents think the same way! They will not show mercy to your subordinates, you have sixty percent of the military power of the empire, no one can have more troops than you except Your Majesty, as long as you don't die for a day, you will always be a hidden danger in their hearts!" The old man standing behind him stepped forward and opened his arms to persuade hard.
"That's enough, don't say any more, let my father solve these things! When my father finishes his birthday, everything will be clear, but I won't let them see my jokes until then!" After interrupting the persuasion of the old man next to him, the slender man in a gorgeous palace dress rubbed his brows helplessly. "How did you find the candidate, and those people still can't avoid me?"
"Basically, what the second prince has been doing has become more and more blatant lately, and it's not just him that other people have also taken the opportunity to get involved. Thinking of the scene of running into walls everywhere these days, the old man standing on the side was angry. "However, that Rolandor Henry does have a set, and he just sent someone to bring good news that he has solved the matter of the candidate perfectly, so you don't have to worry about it anymore!"
"Oh, that's interesting news, I'm really surprised by this guy who makes me happy, you think it's his luck. The slender man in a gorgeous palace robe chuckled, rubbed his temples vigorously with his hand to relieve the pressure, and then glanced at the old man behind him with a little meaning. "Or has he been hiding it!"
"It's... I don't know, judging from his past behavior, his behavior is indeed a bit unexpected, do you really have to believe his words, don't he find us a guy who will only amuse us, then you will really lose face. For the words of the slender man in a gorgeous palace robe, the old man standing next to him thought for a moment and gave an ambiguous answer.
"Hey, hey, the inscrutable guy, I always thought he would only eat, drink and have fun and was an out-and-out loser, if these things were intentional on his part, it seems that he is not as unbearable as the rumors, on the contrary, he is very good at hiding himself. The slender man in a gorgeous palace robe rubbed his brows with his hands, "If that's the case, then you really can't underestimate him, and he has been holding such an unbearable reputation for so many years, until he comes across the right opportunity." ”
"Then do we have to continue looking?" The old man on the side looked at the slender man in a gorgeous palace robe questioningly.
"Look, why not, since Rolando said so, what he did was enough to win my trust, and I should give him enough trust in this matter. Keep looking for people, don't stop, I want to see their wonderful faces!" waved his hand, and the slender man in a gorgeous palace robe showed a mocking smile on his face.
As the words of the slender man in the gorgeous palace robe fell, the old man beside him slowly retreated, and the slender man in the gorgeous palace robe was left in the entire hall to sit there alone.
In the Outer Imperial City, in a simply decorated restaurant, two people in plain cloth clothes are sitting opposite each other.
"Your Royal Highness the Eighth Prince, it is a great honor for you to deign to come here to meet you, and believe me, this trip is guaranteed to make your trip worthwhile!" the older middle-aged man was the first to speak.
"Where, where! I would also like to see what is different about the young talent you have introduced to me, which will allow you to reduce the talent I have recruited to nothing. The Eighth Prince's expression remained unchanged, and he slowly asked the true purpose of this trip.
"When he comes, you can recognize him at a glance without my introduction!" Facing the Eighth Prince's silent questioning, the older middle-aged man smiled mysteriously without care.
"Oh, it seems that it's still a person I know, why don't I have any impression at all!" Hearing this, the Eighth Prince's mind moved, and he couldn't help but think of the well-known young heroes he had met in his heart.
Faced with the question of the Eighth Prince in a gray cloth robe, the middle-aged man who was also wearing a cloth robe smiled mysteriously but did not speak, no matter how the Eighth Prince guessed, he refused to say the answer.
It didn't take long for the Eighth Prince in gray cloth to chat with the middle-aged man in cloth when the dull sound of the door suddenly sounded, interrupting the small talk between the two. The two looked at each other and stopped the topic they were arguing about, and looked at the door quietly, just when there were two long and one short knocks on the door, after hearing this strange knock, the middle-aged man in cloth couldn't help but smile mysteriously and looked at the eighth prince with a puzzled expression.
"The person I found for you is here, it's really a coincidence that you came early!" After speaking, the middle-aged man in cloth stood up and walked to the door, and slowly opened the door after tidying up his clothes.
Standing outside the door at this time was a man in black who was not very tall under a black robe covered in his whole body, and he was standing quietly outside the door with his hands tied. Then, the middle-aged man in cloth who opened the door waved his hand to signal the person to come into the house, and after the man in black walked into the room, the middle-aged man in cloth cautiously stuck his head out of the door to look left and right, and closed the door again after making sure that there was no one nearby. At this time, the person in the black robe had also lifted his wide hat, revealing his true appearance hidden underneath.
A long black hair is tied at the back of his head at will, the jade tree is in the wind, indescribably handsome, even if he is wearing a black robe, he can't hide his elegant temperament. After the Eighth Prince, who was dressed in cloth, saw the true face of the visitor, he couldn't sit still and stood up and pulled out a chair for the visitor.
"I really didn't expect that the runner-up winner of the genius contest held last year, known as White Maroy Miller, was also a member of the revolutionary army, and I didn't expect you to be so bold as to participate in the genius contest under the noses of all the ruling classes of the empire, what a daring artist!"
"Where! Where, Eighth Prince, you think too highly of me, at that time, I just wanted to prove that without the support of the big family, commoners can succeed through their own efforts, that's all. White Maroy Miller only smiled at him with a sunny smile.
"With your participation, I think you should be the first place this time!" The Eighth Prince couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, and complimented, in his opinion, with the help of this person, he would definitely be able to shine in that game in nine days.
"Your Royal Highness the Eighth Prince, you don't have to praise him too much, how can this kid compare to those powerhouses under you!" the older middle-aged man suddenly interjected.
"I can't say that Mr. Frankie, those people under me are all guys who have no room to grow, how can they be compared to White Horse Roy, a young talent who is thriving, Mr. Roy is already the strength of a great mage at such a young age, and it must be very possible to step into the enviable realm of the Law Saint. The Eighth Prince waved his hand and complimented him with a smile again.
"Where, where, you praised. White Maroy Miller waved his hand with a little modestty.
Although Roy, the young man in the black robe, said this, anyone could see the smugness on his face and the relief on the face of the middle-aged man in the cloth, Frankie. In fact, after the eighth prince saw the true face of the visitor, the heart hanging in his throat finally put it in his stomach, but what he didn't expect was that this white horse Roy Miller was also a member of the revolutionary army, and he dared to participate in the genius competition held by the empire under the emperor's nose, fortunately he didn't let him win the championship, otherwise the empire's face would be lost.
But now it seems that with the help of this person, he must be able to shine in front of Romanov XIII, and this time he will definitely be able to beat the brothers, and the eighth prince, who has a serious expression at the thought of this, can't help but laugh.
"With Roy's help, His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince will definitely be able to shine in front of the emperor! Then you are one step closer to the throne, and when the time comes, please don't forget the agreement with the revolutionary army. Looking at the Eighth Prince with joy clearly written on his face, the older middle-aged man couldn't help but remind.
"Rest assured, Mr. Frankie, I believe that this decaying empire has come to an end, and that the times are progressing and my father is still holding on to the rules left by his ancestors, and he will be obsolete by the times, and the first thing I will do when I ascend the throne is to implement a new policy. At this thought, the radiant Eighth Prince waved his arms, as if he had already sat on the throne. "I want the people of the empire to no longer live in poverty, and I want to become revolutionaries of the Romanovs!"
After hearing the promise of the Eighth Prince, Cloth Frankie and White Horse Roy also looked at each other sincerely, in fact, they had already seen this prince's unconventional ideas when their revolutionary army cooperated with this eighth prince, so they dared to take the risk to cooperate with this prince.
In fact, the idea of the first revolutionary army was to completely overthrow the rule of the Romanovs, but after several failed uprisings, they found that the people preferred to believe in the absolute dominance of the Romanovs than their revolutionary army, which had nothing.
Moreover, after years of armed rebellion, they also thought that instead of plunging the people into the whirlpool of war by means of war, it was better to choose one of the many princes, put him on the throne, and liberate the people in a moderate way. Now it seems that their choice is not wrong, the eighth prince in front of him does have the same philosophy as them, and they only need to push him to the throne with all their might, and the rest of the things will be done.
After a short exchange, the eighth prince in a cloth robe got up to say goodbye and disappeared into the night with excitement. The two people left in the room did not leave, but looked at each other and did not speak.
In the end, it was a middle-aged man in a cloth suit who broke the deadlock.
"I know what you're thinking, and I know what you're trying to do! But you'd better leave your unrealistic ideas behind, which is why your father failed so many times!"
"If the Romanovs can establish a dynasty, why can't I, why should the revolutionary army live on the snort of others!" and then faced with the accusation of the man in the cloth, the white horse Roy in the black robe retorted unwillingly. "Some people say that fate is predestined by God, and no one can change fate, but I don't want to believe this statement, fate is in our hands, and only brave people can understand it!"
Roy Miller, who was wearing a simple black robe, clenched his fists in great excitement, and his face became flushed.
"Strength and the current situation, when you have these two things before you are qualified to talk about these, otherwise it is all utopian, the so-called ideal refers to the reality that people who have the strength at the same time are worthy of talking, and the weak are not qualified to talk about ideals. He took a deep look at the flushed white horse roy, and shook his head helplessly. "If you want to achieve your goal, first reach the level of Fa Saint! Put away your arrogant thoughts before that, don't be complacent just because you have achieved a little achievement, you must know that there are many young talents on this continent, but there are only a handful of people who can take that step. ”
After hearing the middle-aged man in cloth say this, White Horse Roy Miller had no intention of continuing to stubbornly refute, because he clearly knew that what the middle-aged man in cloth said was the truth, without the strength of the strong, without the prestige of a hundred responses, it was better not to think about those unrealistic things, otherwise you would die faster.
It is precisely because of this, this is the real reason why he took the risk to participate in last year's talent competition, and this time he will agree to participate in this competition on behalf of the Eighth Prince, everything he does is to become famous, as long as he has fame, he will move towards his goal step by step, and he is convinced that he will one day achieve his wish. At this moment, a low thunderclap came from the night sky, attracting all the attention of the two.
"How can there be thunder on a clear night?" Looking at the clear night sky, White Maroy couldn't help but ask with some curiosity.
It's just that he didn't notice that the middle-aged man in cloth standing beside him at this time was nervous and couldn't hold his hands, and he trembled involuntarily.
