Under Elena's best efforts, Belen @ Haruman finally dispelled the idea of revenge on Harlant, but after the Haruman family experienced this incident, there was also a deep estrangement between the Belize family and Princess Susanna.

Harlant's betrayal undoubtedly pushed the Haruman family to the forefront of public opinion in the imperial capital, and many gossipy-loving citizens of the imperial capital are speculating about the inside story of this aristocratic marriage change, and even more, some writers actually added fuel and vinegar to write it into a novel, and even achieved good sales.

In particular, an author called Alexandre Dumas, wrote "Heroes and Roses", and the story between Harrant and Elena and Susanna, written in a heart-wrenching and tortuous way, which was sought after and loved by the majority of readers.

Bored to flip through "Heroes and Roses", Elena sneered self-deprecatingly and threw the book aside, although many stories are made up, but, why not life like this?

Life is like a play, and you just play different roles at different times, whether you are a pure-hearted little girl, or a money worshipper who wants to marry into a wealthy family, in the face of cruel reality, you have to bow your head and reposition your life.

Maybe a person who has no desire will get rich, maybe a person who longs for love, but has been lonely and single, although she has also been beautiful, but she can only be tempered by the years. Withering...

Twelve years old was originally an age full of energy and hope for the future. Now, however, Elena seems to have grown a lot, matured, and deepened.

In the still beautiful eyes, there is a little less naivety and more indifference.

After learning the news that Harant and Elena regretted their marriage. The nobles of the imperial capital couldn't help but be ready to move, and the nobles who were originally afraid of the Belize family and didn't dare to come to the door to propose marriages now gradually have ideas.

A female Baijiati. What's more, this is a genius girl known as the flower of the imperial capital?

Not to mention her rare dual-line magic talent in a hundred years, just in terms of appearance and figure, it is definitely worth the blood of these noble lords to accept it into the harem.

Even if it's used as a vase, you will be in a good mood when you look at it every day.

Although many people have not really pierced this layer of window paper. Be the first to eat crabs. However, this atmosphere is already very solemn, especially above the court, all kinds of great nobles who please Belen, whether in words or in terms of political opinions, can't help but lean towards Belen's side, and let Hecubeldo, the head of the empire. It's a bit redundant.

On this day, after Belém's dynasty. The number two person in the Imperial Cabinet, Prince John @ Richard, finally found Belén impatiently.

Prince John is the uncle of the current Emperor Paul, and he is also a member of the Imperial Cabinet, one of the eight ministers of Gu Ming, and he has a high position in the court, plus he is a member of the royal family, so his strength is very strong, although the position seems to be a little lower than Hekubel, but in terms of comprehensive strength, it will definitely not lose to the Belize family.

Seeing Old John send an olive branch, although he hadn't opened his mouth yet, Belen seemed to have already guessed Old John's thoughts.

The emperor's own uncle, the second person in the internal affairs of the empire, although the power is overwhelming, but also has a bad reputation, that is, very lustful, as long as there is a beautiful girl in the empire, he will almost never let go, as long as he sees a beautiful little girl on the street, he will not hesitate to let people forcibly loot it to the car, and then after satisfying the desire, he will throw people on the side of the road, and throw a few hundred gold coins at will.

Because of the fear of his identity and status, many girls can only choose to swallow their anger after suffering losses, so this lustful imperial uncle also has a nickname in the imperial capital, called "Night Groom".

Seeing Old John coming, Belen's face immediately became gloomy, he didn't want his precious granddaughter to be toyed with by this old guy.

"Generalissimo Belen, at such an old age, his body is still so tough, how can he maintain it? Are there dozens of deer whips every day? Old John patted Belen on the shoulder with a smile and said with a smile.

"Is there anything wrong with His Highness John?" Belen asked lukewarmly, he didn't want to have too much interaction with this frivolous guy, as the saying goes, having sex with a gentleman is like entering the room of pandan, and not smelling its fragrance for a long time, and having sex with a villain, such as entering the abalone, and not smelling its smell for a long time, and this old John is a typical villain, Belen doesn't want to get too close to this stinky abalone.

"Belen, you also know that my son is fifteen years old this year, and I heard that your granddaughter recently broke off her engagement with the grandson of that old fellow Hecubeldo? I pondered... Do you see if you can get your granddaughter to marry my son? In this way, you can be regarded as a relative of the royal family, and it is not a bad thing for the Haruman family, right? Old John asked with a smile.

Belen's brows furrowed, how could he not know the tricks of this old fox?

Nominally, he married his son a daughter-in-law, but in fact, it was to replenish his harem, this old thing, in order to satisfy his selfish desires, did everything, it is said that he also once persecuted the baron to death in order to occupy a baroness for a long time, although that incident was suppressed under the personal appearance of His Majesty the Emperor, but the evil consequences caused by that incident made Old John's reputation notorious in the court.

Seeing the repetition of Old John's old tricks, where could Belen be fooled, sneered, and said: "Your Royal Highness John, I'm really sorry, my granddaughter is still young, and besides, where is the daughter of the moth worthy of the royal family?" I think it's better to forget it. ”

Old John didn't get angry when he saw that Belen didn't agree, he chased after him with a smile and sneered: "Belen, I don't think you don't know the identity of my old John, right?" Although I am nominally the second-in-command of the cabinet, I think you also know very well about my relationship with His Majesty, which family I want to make prosperous, which family will prosper, which family I want to extinguish, which family must give my head obediently, you should know this very well, right? ”

In the face of Old John's naked threat, Belen sneered without changing his face and nodded: "Of course I know this, but His Royal Highness John should also know what kind of person my old Belen is, right?" I joined the army at the age of fourteen, and it has been more than fifty years now, and the people I have killed have probably drunk more blood than any woman your Royal Highness John has ever played, am I afraid of death? ”

Hearing this, Old John laughed and clapped his hands: "Good, good, a good one is not afraid of death, I appreciate you." ”

"My old man has devoted his whole life to the glory of the empire, even my son's life has been put on the line, and now there is only such a precious granddaughter, if Elena has something good and bad, hum, I don't care who he is, he will definitely let him die ugly, I swear!" Belen said with a cold gaze.

Although he is an old man, this old marshal who has been fighting horses all his life is really creepy, even Old John can't help but feel a chill in his back, and his face is a little pale.

Old Belen is right, how prosperous the Haruman family was back then, and now for the empire, his son and several nephews have died on the battlefield, and now the Haruman family is only left with Old Belen and his baby granddaughter Elena, in other words, Elena is the future of the Haruman family, and the only spiritual sustenance in the heart of the old marshal.

If something happened to Elena, old Belen might really do something unexpected.

As the saying goes, a rabbit bites when it's in a hurry, let alone a lion with crazy hair?

A person who can defeat 300,000 barbarian iron horsemen in one fell swoop with 200,000 imperial troops, if he launches a ruthless attack, I am afraid the consequences are unimaginable.

Old John knows how great Belen's energy is, with his prestige in the imperial military circles, I am afraid that as long as he raises his arms, most of the country will have to change its flag, and if there is another palace coup d'état, or the Qing monarch under the city, it is estimated that his head will not be able to keep moving.

Thinking of this, Old John's expression immediately became a little flattering, he patted Belen on the shoulder with a smile, and said with a smile: "Why should the Generalissimo be angry? It's just a joke, it's just a joke, so why take it seriously? Okay, I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave first! ”

With that, old John quickly turned and left.

Seeing that Old John touched his nose, the other nobles were also disheartened, even the prince's son had no play, weighing his own cats and dogs, I am afraid it was even more useless, rather than not knowing the height of the sky to take his own humiliation, it is better to protect himself and wait and see what happens.

……

In the imperial capital, girls will reach the age of engagement at the age of twelve, and they will generally get married at the age of fourteen or fifteen, and for nobles, this age will be further advanced, generally girls will be engaged at the age of seven or eight, and they will already be engaged at the age of twelve or thirteen, which is conducive to strengthening the reliability of the marriage alliance, from the perspective of inheriting the clan, this is also more assured, at least so that the man's family can confirm the purity of his bloodline.

Elena is now twelve years old, but she is not engaged yet, which makes Belen really have a headache.

Although many of the great nobles in the imperial capital want to marry him, and it is only a matter of one sentence to get engaged, but looking at the noble children of the imperial capital, which one is not a gentleman?

If you want your precious granddaughter to marry these wastes who only know how to eat, drink and enjoy, how can you bear it?

Thinking about it, Belém frowned all day. (To be continued......)
