Chapter 55: Killing Intent

"Just the two of us?" Angela's cheeks were crimson again, she had grown so big that she had never gone out alone with other boys.

Of course, Clifford didn't want to look for another light bulb, so he took her hand, and with the other hand tightened her waist, and said quietly: "I didn't invite anyone, if you want to make your own friends, that's fine." ”

This is the rhythm of dating, Angela is very happy in her heart, she feels that her heart is pounding and beating wildly, she lowers her head and says quietly: "Okay, I'll only take one maid with me." ”

"Then let's say it, see you or leave."

"See you or leave you."

Not far away on the edge of the dance floor, the eldest prince watched his daughter dance with Clifford with a sad face, if he was not mistaken, this was the sixth dance his daughter danced with Clifford, since she was born, she had never danced more than two dances in a row with a man, why did she dance six dances in a row today?

The eldest prince was a man from the past, and just by looking at his daughter's intoxicated appearance, he knew what she was thinking, and to be honest, he did not intend to marry his daughter to Clifford. The eldest prince did not deny that Collie was excellent and helped him a lot in this struggle to seize power, but this was far from the extent that he could marry his daughter.

For a skilled job like Clifford, you can give him a promotion and a salary increase if you contribute to yourself, and there is no need to take your daughter.

In fact, he had already found a good home for his daughter, the crown prince of the neighboring kingdom of Prussia. The Kingdom of Prussia is the most powerful country on the continent of Hill, and it is said that to the east of it, across a strait from it, there is an even more powerful empire, and the Kingdom of Prussia is embracing the thigh of this empire and is willing to be a little brother to become stronger.

But in any case, the family is strong, if you can marry the other party, it will be a huge consolidation of your power, not to mention that the other party is still the crown prince, and in the future, he will control the Kingdom of Prussia, no matter how you look at it, it is much stronger than Colliff.

At all times, capital is the most important, and Clifford can only provide technology, while the Kingdom of Prussia can inject powerful capital into the Great Prince.

I can't let them go on like this anymore, it will ruin their plans. The eldest prince frowned, looked at Colefo and Angela not far away, and secretly made up his mind.

After the ball, Clifford said goodbye to the eldest prince and took Liana back to the Earl's court, not noticing that there was already a trace of dissatisfaction under the kind expression of the eldest prince.

"Master, are you happy today?" Sitting in the carriage, Liana put her arm around Clifford and smiled slightly.

"Of course I'm glad I invited Miss Angela. We're going to go to horse racing together on the weekend. Collie patted Liana's hand, smiled and said to Allen, who was driving in front of him: "Alan, please ask you and your father to buy me a good horse these days, I don't want to lose points in front of Princess Angela on the weekend." ”

"Rest assured, my master. We won't let you down. Alan waved his horsewhip and said proudly. Choosing horses is their specialty, and they are as proud as they can use their expertise to serve their masters.

In the past few days, Pol has not been going well, the second prince gave up the fight for the throne, and Prime Minister Anthony was so frightened that he immediately became politically correct after being taught a few times by the old king Frederick VII, and he no longer dared to embarrass Gates.

With a "snap", Pol broke another vase, which was his unique way of venting his anger, and scolded angrily: "What a Clifford, you dare to use this kind of trick with me!" Without the support of the second prince and Anthony in the court, that gate became more and more arrogant. ”

Pol's chief strategist, Lincoln, was also present, and he was already well aware of Pol's temper, so he didn't care, stood up, and said with a gloomy face: "Lord Governor, I see that this Clifford is impatient, and if he is allowed to go on like this, he may do us any evil?" See if it's ......" and made a gesture to wipe his neck.

Pol frowned and weighed it carefully, and finally said lightly: "This person can't stay, as far as I know, he is going to go to the suburbs with the third princess of the eldest prince's family to race horses on the weekend, and you will send someone to do it at that time." Remember, be clean and don't let people come to us. ”

Lincoln smiled slightly, and said with a confident look, "Don't worry, Lord Governor." I don't do this once or twice, it must be clean, Clifford once, the eldest prince's side is equivalent to one less brain, it will definitely mess up, and it will be much easier for adults to fight back then. ”

Pol nodded heavily, agreed with Lincoln's method very much, and said secretly: Coolford, Coolford, you and I have no grievances, I didn't want to kill innocents indiscriminately, this is all your own fault. After making up his mind about this matter, Pol remembered another thing, and said: "Recently, Gates has been making too much noise, and I have decided to impeach him to the king and make him rein in." ”

"Impeachment?" Lincoln frowned and groaned for a moment, and hesitated, "Is this okay?" He is now a popular man in front of the old king, and the old king will protect him. ”

"Yes, the old king will definitely protect him, but he has been looking for trouble with me recently, if I don't fight back, people will not only think that I am a soft persimmon who is bullied, but more importantly, some people may think that I have lost power and dare not fight back, so that many people will leave us, and the situation will be very unfavorable to us." Pol gasped and slammed on the ground and said, "I know the king's heart will be on him, but don't forget, I still have the strength of seven legions in my hands, and I want to see if the king wants a gate or these seven legions." ”

Speaking of which, Pol's intention is already obvious, that is, he wants to use the existing power in his hands to force the king to make concessions in order to consolidate his power, and he knows very well in his heart that as long as he can hold the military power tightly, even if the king is dissatisfied with him, he will not dare to do anything to him. Seeing that Pol's attitude was so resolute, Lincoln didn't say anything, and began to think of a way to draft a recital for Bol to impeach Gates.

Two days later, the old king Frederick VII received a recital of Bol's impeachment of Gates, and as Clifford expected, Frederick VII understood Boer's intention as soon as he saw the recitalβ€”to cut off his own wings.
