"Tenth brother, you don't have to be polite to me, you are a great hero of the kingdom. And you, Liana, looking at my tenth brother's face full of spring breeze, I know that you have taken good care of him, your task has been completed very well, and it is not in vain that I have cultivated you. Today, you all have to have fun, you have to have fun. The eldest prince stretched out his right hand, put his arm around Clifford's shoulder, and said very enthusiastically.

"Yes, yes. Thank you, big brother, thank you, big prince. Clifford and Liana said to the eldest prince with a smile on their faces. Then, he walked into the hall with him.

There were a lot of people in the hall, much more than the last time they came, and it was obvious that these ministers saw that the eldest prince was about to take power, and the second prince gave up the competition for the throne, and immediately changed the court. Seeing the scene of them being full of spring here with their new master, pushing the cup and changing the lamp, a chill rose in the heart of Coleford, the second prince has only been in power for a few days, these people are not blushing, and their hearts are not beating to join his new master, politicians will always be the most ruthless creatures in the world.

Liana is already outstanding in appearance, and she has been carefully dressed up today, so even in the dance hall where noblewomen and celebrities are gathered, she looks very dazzling.

Sure enough, Liana had just entered the ballroom with Colliford's arm in her arms, when an old man with a white beard came over, bowed to Liana, and said, "Beautiful young lady, can I invite you to a dance?" ”

Liana was born in the Great Prince's Mansion, and later followed the Earl of Clifford, who is also a person who has seen the world, this old man she has an impression, as if he is the deputy minister of which ministry, in order to broaden Clifford's contacts, she forced out a smile, stretched out her hand, and said, "Of course you can." Then, the old man pulled him closer to the dance floor.

Coincidentally, the old guy Collie also knew, he met at the ball held by the second prince, he was still very active at the beginning, which shows that his relationship with the second prince is relatively iron, but I didn't expect that after only a few days of hard work, he changed the door and actually defected to the second prince's opponent, and the people in this circle really can't be serious.

The eldest prince watched Liana being pulled away, shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands at Clifford, and said, "Clifford, I don't know if it's your luck or misfortune, bringing such a beautiful female companion here, every time someone snatches it up." ”

Clifford smiled, his face was a little proud, he knew very well in his heart, that old guy Lariana went to dance by no means to fall in love with her beauty, an official of his level, what kind of beauty do you want, he took a fancy to Clifford behind Liana, and wanted to take the opportunity to dance with Liana to have a relationship with Clifford, after all, he knew that Clifford was now a celebrity in front of the old king Frederick VII and the eldest prince, and he himself used to be the second prince, if he wanted to completely whitewash himself, It still needs the power of Clifford.

Seeing that Clifford was very happy, the eldest prince took the opportunity to say: "Tenth brother, since this is the case, let's still talk about the old rules, let's talk about business first, Gates is still waiting for us there." ”

"Okay, big brother. I think it's time for us to take the next step. Clifford said with a smile, and then followed the eldest prince into a private room in a remote corner of the hall.

Gates was waiting there for a long time, and when he saw the eldest prince coming with Clifford, he immediately stood up and greeted: "Your Royal Highness, Brother Clifford." "He looked very welcoming.

"I've kept you waiting, sit down." The eldest prince said lightly, and then sat down in the main seat of the room.

Clifford and Gates bowed to each other a few times, and then sat down separately, and in this private room was a very beautiful beautiful maid, dressed in a white dress, and with a very attractive figure, she held a flask in her hand, and seemed to be in charge of pouring wine for everyone.

The prince just enjoys it, even an ordinary servant who pours wine is so like a jade, Clifford secretly admired, and then his eyes left the servant, he didn't want the eldest prince to think that he was a person who couldn't walk when he saw a beautiful woman, whether it was for his career or for Angela.

The beautiful servant poured half a glass of wine for the three of them, and the eldest prince raised his glass and smiled at Clifford and Gates: "Gates, let's toast Clifford together with this glass of wine, he did us a great favor, and actually let the second prince take the initiative to give up the fight for the throne." God, this was something we couldn't have imagined before. ”

"Where, where, all this is thanks to the great prince's blessing." Clifford learned the lines in the TV series of later generations and pretended to be forced, wearing thousands of clothes, not wearing sycophants, no matter when, there is always nothing wrong with patting sycophants.

Gates also said with a courteous face: "Yes, Brother Clifford." I, Gates, have never served anyone in my life, and today I have served you, how did you use to make the second prince give up the fight for the throne? ”

The solution is actually very simple, that is, to analyze the situation he is facing now, but Clifford doesn't want to say it, because once he says it, there will be no mystery, which is not good for him, so he couldn't help laughing, waved his hand, and said perfunctorily: "Don't say, don't say." ”

The eldest prince and Gates looked at each other, not knowing what kind of trick he used, and he was embarrassed to say it, but it didn't matter, what mattered was the result, the eldest prince raised his glass and said: "Everyone has their own privacy, since Clifford doesn't want to say it, then let's not embarrass him, let's do this bar first." ”

"Okay, Brother Clifford, I will give you a drink." Gates said, raising his glass to Clifford as well.

Cleifer didn't even say he dare, and clinked glasses with the two of them, and afterwards, the beautiful woman came to add wine to them, according to the rules, she should have added wine to the eldest prince first, but when she walked up to the eldest prince, the eldest prince pointed to Cleford and said: "Go and fill up my tenth brother first, he is a great hero today." ”

The beauty didn't speak, she walked up to Clifford with a wine glass, and looked at Clifford's eyes with some curiosity, I really don't know how this young man was so favored by the eldest prince, this treatment has only been enjoyed by a few henchmen of the eldest prince such as Gates.

After the three of them exchanged polite words again, the eldest prince sat up straight, put down his Erlang legs, and asked with a somewhat sincere expression on his face, "Tenth brother, what do you say we should do next?" ”

This question had already been expected by Clifford, and he said unhurriedly: "The second prince is willing to hand over power, which is a big victory for us, but we must not let our guard down because of this. Although the second prince has surrendered, the forces behind him have not surrendered, and we must be vigilant to prevent the forces behind him from counterattacking. ”
