Chapter 35: The Meeting of the Two

There was a lively conversation on Kaliel's side, and Andris and the Bethel family also received information about her one after another, and they combined her dynamics to describe it completely. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Angus was being invited to a ball when he received a bunch of reports, and most of the nobles of Skaloa had arrived, and even if he was not interested, he could not be absent at will.

Of course, this did not affect the level of boredom of the ball, and the nobles secretly divided into different camps according to their own circles, exchanged ears, or pretended to talk about boring topics naturally, and only they knew what was on their minds.

Really, unpleasant occasions......

Angus sat in the corner with his red wine, sitting in one of the few places where the chandeliers that lit up the whole hall could not be illuminated, and watched with some disgust as the young aristocrats on the dance floor held their dance partners, while shaking the red wine, thinking about his own business.

"What's the matter, why don't you go find your own dance partner" A deep male voice interrupted Angus's thoughts, and he looked up to see a middle-aged man in a neat aristocratic uniform also walking towards him with a wine glass.

"Dance partner?" Angus glanced at the men and women on the dance floor, and said disdainfully: "These young people only know pleasure. Morton Andris, I can't imagine that you would always attend such a boring ball. ”

Moulton, Caryl's father, the current head of the Andris family, is characterized by a short, unusually neat white beard under his nose.

Usually, the two have argued countless times on some issues and plans, which has allowed everyone to establish a unique friendship that goes beyond aristocratic relationships, so it seems more casual in private.

"Isn't the old man coming to you?" Morton sat down on a chair beside him, put the red wine on the table, and continued: "Things have come to this point, and I want to hear your opinion."

Morton stopped talking nonsense, and directly brought the topic back to today's topic, Angus obviously won't fail to understand, seeing Morton appear in this kind of place today, the topic that will basically be said will be determined.

"I knew that I should have locked that girl up in the castle in the first place!" Angus's face changed back and forth for a long time before he unwillingly popped out a sentence between his teeth.

"I heard that you've been mixed up with the Holy See?"

"First she made trouble in Icefield for a while, and then she got into line with the Assassin League, and the hell knows how she did it," Angus complained helplessly.

"Haha...... I'm a father...... It's really incompetent......"

Morton thought about it, feeling that he cared too little about his daily life, and didn't know enough about his daughter's situation at all.

"It was only the Assassins' Guild before, and the abilities she had shown herself," Angus continued, recalling all the reports he had read on the matter, the wine glass in his hand shaking slowly, "It's okay, even if it does lose it, it's not too much of a pity for our plans"

"But......," Morton sternly added to Angus's twist.

"But!" Angus nodded: "I didn't expect to be able to reach an agreement with the Holy See, and now we have entered the Holy See for the time being, and our intelligence officers can't know the details, but judging from the reaction of the Holy See, I'm afraid it's ......."

"I'm afraid that Karil has been given a certain amount of rights"

Morton snorted coldly, took Angus's words and finished speaking, picked up the red wine on the table and drank it down, and slammed the empty glass on the table.

"In this way, Karil is now alone with the Assassin Alliance's connector, the woman named Red Lotus, plus a certain amount of influence from the Holy See, and the power shown by Carlil herself...... I'm afraid this is just the tip of the iceberg, and the Oriental who really makes a killing move is afraid that he has the strength of no less than the Sword Emperor. ”

Angus has been observing all this time, and he can't take the initiative to do anything more, all he can do is to observe the report with all his heart, and then urge his subordinates to hand in more reports to me as soon as possible. So when it comes to these, it's like a few treasures.

However, he also knew that with the intelligence of the Andris family, it was impossible not to know this, let alone Morton, Angst said this, in fact, he was complaining about the dissatisfaction in his heart.

"I understand, I understand," said Moulton, who knew very well the grievances in Angus's heart, and to be honest, he had no less grievances against himself than Angus, from his father's, and out of his plan.

"But there is no way now, it has developed like this, let's not talk so much nonsense first, and go back to settle accounts ourselves, but now Karil is staying in the Holy See, and if she doesn't come out, we can't do anything about her." Morton shook his head helplessly.

Angus looked at Morton who was sitting on the side again, and his words made Angus even wonder if this was a real person Molton, a great nobleman who was usually calm and calm, and he would actually say some useless complaints at this time, which really opened his eyes.

After glancing up and down for a long time, Angus had to be sure that it was Morton who was a little out of shape as soon as he involved his daughter, father, which is understandable.

"Let's start from the beginning, the impact of the interruption of the marriage is not serious, if we can bring Carlil back to join us, whether or not to rectify the need for the marriage can be completely ignored, as long as Carlil takes the initiative to support it, it can be completely compensated" Angus carefully counted the chips in Carlil's hand in his heart, and felt more and more that this was a more important person.

"Of course, this loss of strength is nothing compared to the strength that the little girl is carrying now" Although Morton was helpless, he still had some pride when he said this.

"We can't touch her directly for the time being, but Carlil will definitely come out, and there is no need for her to hide from us at this time, and she must be clear that we won't arrest her again, so ......" Angus finally picked up the red wine that he had been serving for a long time and took a sip, and then turned his eyes to the swaying men and women on the dance floor: "...... I rushed over and went to find her myself, waiting for her to come out. ”

That's fine, there was no reason for Carlil to wait in the Holy See all the time, and Angus might be able to hit it right if he rushed over at this time.

"So, what reason does Your Excellency have to bring my little daughter back, I mean, you can't force her to do anything now, can you?" Morton looked at Angus with a smile, he had always admired the young man, and promised to marry his daughter to him, not purely political influence.

Morton really hoped that this young man could have some eye-catching insights to bring back his lovely daughter, but this time Morton was disappointed, he saw Angus hesitate for a moment, and finally could only shake his head and reply: "There is no suitable way, the time is too short, there is no time to make any preparations, and the previous understanding of Karil, I'm afraid that those materials will have to be returned and rewritten, all I can do is to go up and try in person, can I persuade your daughter to come back, after all, she is a member of the Andris family after all." ”

Morton looked at him without saying a word, and Angus sat calmly with burning eyes, waiting for Morton's decision.

"Okay, you've won, get out as soon as possible!"

Tapping the table, Morton replied.

Angus breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, facing Morton who had been in the dark for many years, there was still some pressure, not to mention that the relationship between the two families might go further in the future.

He called the waiter and poured the best red wine for their glasses.

"How's it going over there?"

When Carlil's conversation ended, Angus brought up a new question, which was on Moulton's mind. This problem is even more troublesome than that of Karil.

"Very bad, very bad" Morton could not help but shake his head, the glass that had been raised to his lips was put down again, and when he heard this question, he suddenly lost the mood to drink, and after a few meetings, he was disheartened by the attitude of the king and his courtiers.

Although Angus is young and capable, after all, the rules of the nobility are ironclad, and the high-level meeting can only be attended by the head of an old aristocratic family like Moulton, who is in power, and Angus still can't grasp some of the high-level situations.

"It's really surprising that there are so many lords and factions supporting him," Morton said very dissatisfied: "It's been a long time of peace, and I think the whole fucking world is a good person." ”

It's very rare to run a foul mouth, and the calm middle-aged man is really angry.

"Sure enough, it's going to go the worst?" Angus asked, almost knowingly, but still wanted to make sure, after all, if it weren't for that, they would have had a lot easier.

"That's right, Your Majesty is old and a little mediocre, and the ministers he leads are all holding their tails, and only we can do it" Morton said again, drank the red wine and calmed himself down, before continuing: "Only in the worst case, the responsibility of the nobles has to be carried out by us!" ”

The aristocracy is not only a privileged class, although the increasingly erosive aristocracy has forgotten their responsibilities and only blindly enjoyed, but someone must remember this. Someone has to step up and take on these responsibilities at a critical time.

"Of course! Lord Andris! If everything doesn't go your way, it's up to us! ”

Angus put down his glass, solemnly put his fist on his chest, and saluted with a simple courtesy.
