Chapter 585: Confession
In this way, the atmosphere at the table became harmonious again, and William knew that his son had something to hide from him when he observed Charlemagne's demeanor before.
However, William didn't rush to ask, and when he got to the study, he had time to ask.
The meal, which I don't know if it was breakfast or lunch, was finally over, and William put down the tinned silver knife and fork in his hand, glanced at Charlemagne, and left the table.
Charlemagne also put down the sauce beef he was cutting, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and said to his mother and younger siblings at the table: "I'm full!" ”
Wella nodded and whispered, "Tell the truth to your father!" Don't lie! ”
Charlemagne smiled wryly when he heard his mother's warning, and followed William into his study.
After William entered the study, he made it to the high-backed chair behind the desk, and Charlemagne also sat on a chair in front of the desk, waiting for William to ask questions.
The two looked at each other for a moment, and then William first said, "Don't you have anything you want to say to me?" ”
Charlemagne was a little speechless: "This ...... Belch...... Father, what do you want to know? ”
William shook his head at his son's embarrassed appearance, and said with a smile: "I asked you what you did yesterday?" Why didn't you come to dinner today? ”
William hoped that Charlemagne would be able to tell the story himself, rather than let himself say it.
Seeing that William's words concealed such an obvious hint, a helpless wry smile appeared on Charlemagne's face, he knew that his father had a very strong control over the entire palace and even the entire kingdom.
Although he has never been in direct contact with the Dark Dagger, William told Charlemagne all about the organization and its nature, and Tus is also very familiar with Charlemagne, after all, Charlemagne will also take over all William's power in the future.
Therefore, he knew how powerful the Dark Dagger was for the dominance, especially of the palace.
When my father asked himself, he apparently knew his whereabouts through the Dark Dagger, hoping that he would be able to explain the matter.
Thinking of this, Charlemagne said: "Yes, father, yesterday I left the hall with a girl and went to the garden to spend a wonderful night together!" ”
William was stunned for a moment after hearing this, he didn't expect Charlemagne to say everything so bluntly.
Although William knew that Charlemagne had relationships with many girls and even aristocratic girls, Charlemagne had never said it so bluntly.
William has always turned a blind eye, but this time Charlemagne said it so explicitly, which made William not mentally prepared.
William shrugged his shoulders and said, "A beautiful night? I don't think a girl can leave my most important son, my heir, the Crown Prince, from such an important feast! ”
Charlemagne stared at William's eyes, he had a clear conscience about this, although he respected William, but he also had his own ideas, and he thought that pursuing his love was a very correct thing.
Even if he used to think that for the sake of politics, he could marry a noble lady or a princess he didn't know, because he is now in love with Illya, so his inner thoughts have changed.
William looked at Charlemagne, who looked him in the eye, there was no annoyance, he knew that his son was a very assertive person, and if he was a son who was submissive to him, he would be worried.
It is Charlemagne's respect for himself, but his strong character with his own ideas, that makes William attach so much importance to him.
He said to William: "I'm sorry father, but I think it's worth it, I feel like I've found love, the woman I really love!" ”
Charlemagne said firmly: "I will marry her!" ”
William was stunned when he heard the news, Charlemagne did not have this attitude in the past, since he was a child, he told himself that if his father was in need, he could appoint a young lady from a noble family for him to marry at any time.
However, because William wanted his children to be happy, he never made a marriage contract for Charlemagne.
But even so, he was still surprised that Charlemagne said such a thing.
William shook his head and said, "It's unbelievable that you would be this idea!" ”
Charlemagne said, "I'm sorry father, but I really love her!" ”
William asked helplessly: "Okay, then what is the identity of that girl you have your eye on?" ”
William plans to ask the girl's identity, this is William's last compromise, if her identity is too low, then William has no choice but to beat the mandarin duck.
Although William also hopes that his son can be truly happy, it is also necessary to be the right person, and there can be no happiness in an unequal marriage.
Charlemagne heard William's inquiry, and his face showed an embarrassed and sad expression, and he stopped talking.
When William saw Charlemagne's expression, his heart sank, and it seemed that the girl's identity was indeed low.
He didn't want to scold Charlemagne right away, as a gentle ideal father, he was still relatively gentle, he calmly said to Charlemagne: "Listen to me Charlemagne, you have to figure out your current identity!" ”
"I am the king of the Kingdom of Lorik, and you are my eldest son and my most important son, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Kingdom of Lorik!"
"You must find a wife whose identity can match you, if a crown prince marries the son of a serf, he will definitely be teased by the whole country, and your father and I will also become the laughing stock of everyone!"
"Your rule will not be secure, and who would want a serf or a merchant's daughter to be their queen?"
"Did you say yes?" William said bitterly to Charlemagne.
But Charlemagne said: "Father misunderstood, Illya is not a serf or the daughter of a merchant!" ”
William nodded, "Ah, Elijah?" What a beautiful name, since she was not the daughter of a serf or a merchant, then she was a nobleman? ”
"But I'm going to tell you Charlemagne, a minor nobleman like the Viscount Baron is not worthy of you, and the Count's daughter is not worthy of the noble bloodline of our Wallace family!"
"The only one who can marry you is the princess of a neighboring country or the daughter of a duke!"
William attached great importance to Charlemagne's marriage, and he could choose the girl he liked among these noble people, but he could never choose the daughter of a low-class nobleman or a commoner.
And Charlemagne heard William's words, and said with a wry smile: "She is not the daughter of a low-level aristocratic family!" ”
"She is the daughter of the Emperor of the Rodland Empire, that is, the princess of the Rodland Empire!"
After Charlemagne said this, he looked at the ground in some silence.
William was also stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then frowned tightly.
"Princess of the Rodland Empire......" William sighed in his heart, this identity is really a little difficult to handle, before he was worried about the daughter of the commoner family Gao Pan Charlemagne, this time, it seems that it is really Charlemagne's Gao Pan family.
