The beautiful and prosperous city of Solo, a place that Albert never dreamed of going back to again.

There are all the memories of his childhood and youth, although his father's tombstone will make people feel a little hesitant and helpless, but that is the true meaning of life. If there is no threat from Emperor Elliot, if there is no bondage of the dukedom, maybe Albert will live in seclusion here like ordinary people by doing some small business for the rest of his life. It's both fortunate and unfortunate, because happiness is basically the same for all people, and the causes of unhappiness are often very different.

After the catastrophe of the port and the island, everyone now feels as if they have gone to heaven.

As soon as many merchants and people in the city saw Lady Charlotte and Duke Albert appear in the streets, they pointed their fingers to the sky, thanking the Creator for his mercy. They originally thought that it would be impossible for the Duke of Borot's family to come back to lead them again, because Emperor Tivot had already quietly moved behind his back. Since the fall of the city of Bilti and the whereabouts of Albert and others are unknown, the emperor's confidant Prime Minister Carignan has become the de facto ruler of the Duchy of Borot.

This old man was even older than the Grand Commander of Constantinople, Savarin, who had been Deliotot's teacher, and when his student had successfully ascended to the throne, he had become a prime minister under one man and above ten thousand.

However, the power of the official position of prime minister is actually floating, if the emperor is relatively mediocre or does not care about everything, then he can almost cover the sky with one hand, if he is unlucky, if he encounters a diligent and conscientious master like Diliot, then the position of prime minister is not even as good as a small baron. others can still manage it a little, and Carignan can only be a herald and staff officer under Dilliot, and there is almost no real power or room for free play.

Since Carignan can teach a 'smart' and cunning student like Dilliot, then his own skills must be extraordinary. With his advanced age, he can apply to return to his hometown, and no longer be a drudgery that has to '' his heart and has no oil. His wife also passed away a long time ago.Del.T.'s mind is the clearest thing for him.Instead of getting peace of mind, he will be closely monitored by him.Instead of trying to live an ordinary life with trepidation.It's better to show his 'spirit' and sing in front of the emperor in a high-pitched and posturing way.So that he won't have any other thoughts.

The old prime minister is the kind of person who understands the emperor's thoughts, and he is also the kind of person who can endure loneliness. Although he sometimes shows a certain amount of complacency or arrogance, but that is actually done exclusively for the emperor, a complacent person will not be a threat to Deliotot, and a proud person is easy to offend other colleagues. In the eyes of the emperor, Carignan is much more reliable than his father-in-law, the Duke of Thoyle. Privately, the emperor prefers to quietly consult the prime minister.

It's a trick of companionship, and Carignan is the best of the best.

Of course, such an important Duchy of Borot had to choose the most appropriate and reliable agent, and the prime minister Callignan immediately came into the emperor's sights.

In the few months that Albert was in the Danse Forest, Lao Ka took office in a hurry, and he knew that he could not properly lead the people of this country and a city.

His efforts were not in vain, and the people of Solo City gradually accepted this reality, anyway, for them, as long as the trade was not interrupted, it didn't matter who the leader was.

Of course, there are still some groups and individuals in the city who are full of sympathy and nostalgia for Lao Bao's family, and they are very unhappy when they see someone occupying the magpie's nest, so they secretly plot to drive Carignan and his people back to their hometown in the imperial capital.

Albert's father had a close relationship with the Antonio family, a large chamber of commerce in Solo, and this family was not only influential in Solo, but also extended its tentacles to the holy city of Roma in the north.

The elder Antonio had eight sons and six daughters, and he adopted a boy and a girl from the orphanage at the same time, making a total of sixteen.

As Lao An grew older, he slowly 'handed over' the family business to his eldest son, Fabio, who was either married to a noble lady or the younger son of a duke or earl.

Fabio was almost twice as old as Albert, and he didn't have any 'intercourse' with Little A, but he always learned something about the Duke's family from his old father.

Businessmen are always mercenary, and the Antonio family is no exception. The reason why Lao An and Lao Bao's 'private' and 'friendly' are so harmonious is largely due to business considerations. What people who do business need most is a stable external environment and a leading official who takes a tacit attitude towards some of their profit-making actions. Therefore, when Lao Bao was alive, the Antonio family could almost be regarded as one of the top two supergiants in Solo City, and no other merchant force could compete with it.

Later, with the sudden capture of the city of Roma by the northern Dessertes, and the invasion of the Duchy of Loyle by 100,000 troops, the authority of the Antonio family slowly declined.

The old Duke Borot was commanded to send troops against the heretics.The other families in the city of Solo, who had been suppressed for a long time, suddenly became active.Antonio's side had a lot of money, but it had to deal with a group of rivals.The share of trade was gradually eroded, and its prestige was slowly losing its luster.

Lao An always hoped that Lao Bao could return triumphantly as soon as possible, but unfortunately in the end, what he was looking forward to was the harsh news that he died tragically at the hands of the 'chaotic' people in the imperial capital.

On that occasion, Lao An said to his eldest son, Fabio: "It seems that the revitalization of our family depends entirely on you, and the Duke's family is obviously not favored by the emperor's side, and our future road will be extremely difficult."

Fabio, who was wrapped in silk and satin, replied with a smile: "Father, you must be too emotional, who will be the duke of this Solo City, it makes no difference to us, as long as you still use all kinds of means to get him as before.

Lao An shook his head and silently turned back to his room.

On the day of Calignan's inauguration, the head of the Antonio family took the initiative to ask for an audience.

Carignan knew it, but he decided that it would be better to be respectful than to obey, because he was a newcomer, and he was not familiar with the place.

Fabiona was full of 'spring' wind, because it meant that he could rest easy from now on.

It's a pity that his ideas are too weak-minded.Carignan not only accepted gifts from the Antonio family, but also accepted bribes from other forces.The prime minister's stomach had already secretly calculated: "All this money will be quietly sent back to the imperial capital of Cisa. The Duchy of Borot is really rich.Those who get this Solo City will no longer have to worry about the economy.Merchants are merchants after all.All they think about is always just money.They don't plan the big picture.But they want to get me done.It's okay.As long as you have it.Then I will never be polite.But if anyone wants to take advantage of this, I will definitely kill the killer."

Lao An's health is getting worse day by day, and his longing for Duke Borot's family is also deepening day by day.

None of his sixteen 'daughters' could understand him.At first, there were people who thought about communicating with him from time to time.But later, everyone thought that the old man was no longer reasonable, and it was better to let him fend for himself.

As the heir to such a vast business empire, Fabio had the responsibility of taking care of his father, and he could not shirk this burden, even when he was having fun with his mistress, his mind was often suddenly disturbed by this unfortunate event.

As the saying goes, the general has a long speech.

Fabio's 'private' life was extremely chaotic, and the 'women' who had been lying next to him had at least three digits. Of course, this was not a challenge at all for him, who was extremely mathematically proficient.

When Ann learned that Lady Charlotte and Albert had miraculously returned to Solo, his frail body suddenly became stronger, and he sent his servants to hurry to inform the Savior of the Fabio Antonio family.

Fabio, the unfilial son, was sleeping in the same 'bed' with a beautiful but femme fatale at this time, and the person next to the pillow understood the distress of her mistress.

When the eldest son of the Antonio family heard this, he didn't say anything definitely, but he had already made up his mind.

'Want' to know what will happen next, and listen to the next breakdown.
