"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, Lord Kopal, and if the following conversation has nothing to do with me, I ask to recuse myself, for I do not think it necessary for me to know these secrets. ”

Despite both Kopal and Roseff's "nostalgia for the past" explanations, Charles decided not to get involved in these things, and the phrase "where is the teacher's remains" just now said by Kopal basically proves that the head of the Occult Research Association should also be a student of "that Excellency" like his father.

In case this guy doesn't drink well and shouts "Chrétien", then within a few meters of him is the center of divine punishment, and the fate of Aurelian's dead people is deeply imprinted in Charles's heart.

"Charles, aren't you interested in your father's affairs at all?"

Charles shook his head, "Your Majesty, my father has died in battle, and I am here to remember his past, and it is better to think about how to preserve the inheritance he left behind, such as ...... Marquis of Lorraine. ”

"Hehehe, the little one is good, not as stupid as your father, so easy to be deceived. ”

Kopal gloated and looked at Rosel and Charles with amusement.

Ruseff was silent for a few seconds, then looked at Charles and said, "Charles, do you think you can manage the Marquis of Lorraine well?"

Charles said strangely, "Why can't I manage my own territory? That is the foundation of the Chevalier family for hundreds of years, and our family's rule has penetrated into the whole of Lorraine, is there anyone better suited to manage it than us?"

"Charr, more than two hundred years ago Lorraine was not a Flensian territory, its ownership has always been in question, because half of the inhabitants of the area are Prussians, and in the past, when the Chevalier family was prosperous, they could suppress those people, but now it ........"

Ruseff didn't say it too thoroughly, but Charles knew what he meant, the Chevalier family is now in decline, the extraordinary knights of the family have been almost ruined by that Charles Chevalier, and many villages have no knights to guard the town, how can they stop the Prussian from coveting?

That's right, it's the Prussian people, Lorraine was a duke in the past, between the Kingdom of Florence and the Kingdom of Forest, the two countries have repeatedly fought for control of it in history, more than two hundred years ago, Florence defeated Pruss again, and the Chevalier family, who made great achievements, got part of the Duchy of Lorraine, that is, the Marquis of Lorraine, and the rest was nationalized by the Florensian royal family.

Many of the inhabitants of the Lorraine region are Prussians, which gives the Prussian royal family an opportunity to intervene, and the Prussian people have not sent spies to play tricks and do things for hundreds of years, but they have all been suppressed by the bloody methods of the Chevalier family.

In the past, as long as there was no large-scale national war between the two countries, the Chevalier family was fully capable of holding their own territory, but now, everyone can see that the Chevalier family no longer has enough manpower to maintain the grassroots rule of the territory, otherwise the three two or five would not dare to openly call for no longer being loyal to Shevalier.

"Your Majesty, are you trying to deprive me of my title inheritance, and then directly turn Lorraine into a royal county?" Charles didn't want to beat around the bush anymore, so he simply asked Rousseff directly.

Rosseff was a little uncomfortable with Charles's straightforwardness, so he didn't answer immediately, but Kopal preemptively said sarcastically: "He won't do that, if he does, the hundreds of nobles in the noble council will immediately launch a coup d'état, you must know that there are many people surnamed Augustine, and some people want to sit in his seat!"

"Charles, I actually discussed with your father a scenario that could solve some of the shortcomings of Florence today, make the country richer and more cohesive, and if this idea succeeds, we in Florence can even ....... Unify the entire continent and recreate the glory of the Norman Empire. ”

Rousseff's last sentence was so incendiary that even Kopal looked surprised, but Charles was "surprised" indifferent.

He looked at Rousseff so calmly, as if he did not dare to be interested in the passionate dream of "unifying the world", which young people are most interested in, and he just quietly waited for Rousseff's next words.

It's a little embarrassing, Charles doesn't laugh, how can that joker play?

"Charles, you can inherit your father's title, but ........"

"Did the Church allow the Flens to unify the entire continent, and did the Church allow a new Norman Empire to be born?"

“.........”

It had been a long time since Rotherf had been interrupted, he was a majestic king after all, but after being interrupted by Charles today, he did not immediately refute it.

It is true that the two churches would not allow Flence to annex other countries and restore the territory of the Norman Empire, because that would be against the interests of the church.

In the face of Charles's interrogation, Rousseff could not be angry in public, and could only suppress Charles with oppressive eyes and seductive language, hoping that Charles would behave like an ordinary courtier and give in under his strong coercion.

"Charles, don't you want us to sweep across the continent by Francs?Sbaya and Engru, we can make them all our own, and since you want to inherit everything from your father, don't you want to hear what his ideas are?"

Hehehe!

Charles laughed silently, it's not that Lao Tzu doesn't want to hear it, but Lao Tzu knows almost all the ways that can make Ference sweep across the continent, nothing more than centralization, military nationalization, monarchical dictatorship, etc., but these methods will especially weaken or even eradicate the privileged interests of the aristocratic class.

Hechar Chevalier is a nobleman!

Charles also knows that these are the inevitable processes of the development of the times, and no one can resist the trend, and he is willing to seize an advantageous position in this trend.

But....... Why should I show up and cooperate with you as this pioneer?

How many pioneers will die before dawn in the process of the change of the times, do you think I don't know? When the change fails, you are an innocent king, and I am especially a rebellious minister and thief who threw out the pot, do you think I am stupid?

Hiding in the whirlpool of the changes of the times, taking advantage of the trend and secretly accumulating strength is the most correct way.

Those vigorous things, let other fools do them!

"Charles, you can get the title of Marquis of Lorraine, but you can no longer have the dominion of the people........."

"I'm sorry Your Majesty, the title of Marquis of Lorraine was originally mine, and the Law of Nobility makes this fact very clear, Your Majesty, as a lord of nobility, I hope that you will protect the interests and rights of your courtiers. ”

"Hahahaha! Roseff, do you think this kid is that stupid boy from Bourman? You can make him give everything with a few words of idealism? He's Adele's nephew, and if you dare to swallow his territory, Adele will come to your door. Kopal couldn't help but laugh when he saw that Rosseff couldn't convince Charles several times in a row, and looked very happy.

"Yes, but what if Adele thinks the same way as me?"

Roself suddenly smiled, and Léo Hohenzollern, the crown prince of Prus, who was not far away, happened to look up, and Kopal and Chardon were stunned.
