Chapter 391
"What can I do?"
Ivan muttered to himself. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Chubby has left. Evan didn't like to have servants with him, so no one around could hear him talking.
Evan knew what he wasn't supposed to do.
No. He knows. Doing nothing is what he should do.
His identity sealed his future path to death. He should live like a part more than a person.
He should marry Lucresa, enlist the help of the Eindo family, give birth to an heir who is strong enough to take on this responsibility, and then teach him to be a competent crown prince.
In everything he does, he must proceed from the interests of the empire. In the face of the interests of hundreds of billions of people, his personal likes and dislikes have no weight at all.
It is impossible for him to marry a woman who can't give him any help for the sake of his own heart, and he also offends the Aindo family, who are holding the life of the empire.
It's too much to gain and too irrational. He must not do that.
Even if he wanted to, his father wouldn't have let him do it.
He couldn't even show the slightest partiality for Roy. Otherwise, once his father finds out, he will not have anything to do, after all, he is the crown prince of the empire, and as an heir, his father is still quite optimistic about him. All the consequences are for Roy. Simplest, in order to cut off his thoughts, his father will eliminate Roy's existence. Even if Roy had the protection of her father, Luo Xiu, I am afraid that he would not be safe.
Ivan stood in the doorway and looked into the distance.
This is not the main entrance of the Imperial Palace, so there is no pursuit of the majesty at the main entrance. Outside the door is a secluded driveway, shaded by flowerbeds, which is beautiful.
The palace is his home. When Lao Wang was still alive, he and his father also frequented here, and they were very familiar with the inside and outside of the palace. But he only discovered today that in the flower garden outside the corner gate, in the gap between the growth of other plants, there was really a rhododendron, a flower that Lao Wang hated the most.
But Chubby knows. For he remembered that a few years earlier, the young Robert had run up to him cheerfully, stuffed him with a bunch of rhododendrons, and told him that they had been plucked from outside the walls of the palace.
It was his father who took him there.
He has been in and out of the palace so many times, some have followed his father to meet the old king, and some have come by himself to do errands, but he doesn't know this little detail, and no one accompanies him.
No one would have thought that he would find such a little joke funny, would he?
He was the eldest son, and followed his father to the palace much more often than Robert, but they always left when they were done. And when facing Robert, his father could think of leading him and sneaking to see the flower blooming in the corner.
Ivan looked down at himself.
What did he lose?
Robert's mother, though shallow, was married to him at first sight. Even though the relationship faded later, Robert has always been his father's heart.
Even the father had his own life as an ordinary person. But he never seemed to have.
It's nothing. He's not that rare anyway. Let him go out to see the flowers, he still hates wasting time.
But there were times when he really wanted to be selfish. Like now.
The wind swept across Evan's cheeks, tugging at the hem of his shirt. No one knew how hard he was inside.
A long time had passed, and all of a sudden, Ivan came to life again, striding back with determination.
Soon, Ivan was back at the door of his father's room.
This time, there was no Ainendo or the like in front of him, and Evan immediately saw his father.
Ivan's father left his desk and rested at the small round table beside him. He didn't seem surprised to see Evan go and return, but just asked Ivan lightly what was wrong.
"Robert has been sent back to school." Evan replied respectfully.
Time passed quietly between father and son, calm on the surface, but trembling in the heart.
"Oh." After waiting for a while, Evan's father responded. "You're just coming back to tell me about this?"
Ivan nodded, indicating that so. "Also, Robert suddenly appeared, and he interrupted our conversation. I have not yet consulted His Majesty. ”
"So what are your plans?" Ivan's father asked him.
Ivan pursed his lips. "Whatever the truth is, it will be announced as it is, and there will be no favoritism."
Evan's father raised an eyebrow.
That doesn't sound like a problem.
However, here is the very center of the right.
Here, belief is the truth.
And what the truth really is, it never matters.
"Evan, what do I want to do, you really don't know?"
As a sign of respect, Ivan hung his head slightly, so he could hide part of his expression.
Evan wasn't sure if his father could see him biting his lip. But he couldn't help it.
The worst fears have happened.
"But once it is declared to the outside world that it is the problem of the Luo family, then let go of the real culprit, aren't we still in danger?" Ivan tried to struggle.
"People who really do this, we can find slowly." Ivan's father said casually, "Announcing to the outside world that the food provided by the Luo family has quality problems, and the relationship between us and the federation will not deteriorate." This is in line with our current diplomatic strategy. I believe that the federal side will give us justice. ”
Ivan's teeth were rattling.
Really.
Roy's father and daughter were scapegoated for this.
He only cared about not letting Roy be implicated by himself, but he forgot about it!
It took all the endurance of his body to ensure that his voice did not tremble. "But Your Majesty, the dowry planet owned by the Luo family is very useful to us. If they claim that the poisoning is their responsibility, will it affect our true dowry planet? ”
"No, it won't. Because I wasn't going to ask for that thing at all. Evan's father said.
Evan really couldn't help it this time, and looked up in dismay: "Father? ”
"You don't really think that if a planet says it will be dragged to the Empire, it will be dragged to the Empire." Ivan's father said, "Ivan, I've always been happy with you, but you didn't do a good job with this deal. With current technology, there is simply no way to transport a planet from the Federation to the Empire. Even if we could, could we? How would the Federation react if they lost such a huge amount of strategic goods? How will the Aindo family react when they learn that their foundation is no longer unique? Fortunately, your confidentiality measures are well done, otherwise this paper transaction is a piece of waste paper, and it will not have any effect at all except for causing trouble. ”
After that, Ivan's father sighed and said earnestly to his son, who was already stunned: "Son, you didn't even realize that you have fallen in love, have you?" Otherwise, I don't believe you'd be stupid enough to sign this agreement. (To be continued.) )
