His behavior naturally attracted the attention of the second prince, and the second prince said with a puzzled expression: "Collieford, what's wrong with you?" How do you sit still and don't move? There was already a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone.

Collie still sat there dumbfounded, looking straight at the second prince with a trace of sadness in his eyes, and sighed: "Your Royal Highness the second prince, please forgive me for not being able to drink." ”

"Why?" The second prince said quite dissatisfiedly: "Don't you think my wine here is bad?" ”

"Where's the word?" Collie said lightly: "I just can't bear to drink your wine anymore, not because your wine here is not good." ”

"Can't bear it?" The second prince suddenly laughed, his laughter was so incredulous and contemptuous, and said, "Hmph, is my dignified second prince still short of this wine money?" Clifford, are you sarcastic about me? ”

Princess Eva was also dizzy by Clifford's words, she knew that Clifford was definitely not looking for nothing to say this, but it was throwing bricks and leading jade to cause the latter words, so she didn't say a word, just opened a pair of big eyes and looked at Clifford quietly.

Clifford shook his head and said slowly: "Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, how can you be shabby when you have been favored by the king for so many years? The reason why I can't bear to drink your wine is because I feel like you're going to die soon, and to be honest, one of the purposes of my coming today is to mourn you in advance. With that, he ripped off his shirt and revealed the black veil on his left arm, which was worn only for funerals.

Clifford did this because he learned the bridge of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and the lobbyists above must have bluffed the other party as soon as they came up before throwing out their own opinions, so that they would be patient to listen to what they had to say.

Sure enough, the second prince was not only bluffed, but also provoked, and it could even be said that he was angry, Lao Tzu kindly invited you to drink, why did you come over to curse Lao Tzu? Angry, he slammed the wine glass on the table, smashed it, and scolded: "Clifford, what do you mean by that?!" Do you want to provoke me? ”

The second prince and concubine can't hold back even if they have a good culture, even if Clifford is good, cursing her husband in front of her like this makes her very angry, she didn't get angry directly like the second prince, but she was also sullen and stared at Clifford very angrily.

This scene frightened Alya, she never thought that her master would talk to the second prince like this, even if he was favored again, wouldn't it be death to say this to the second prince? Frightened, her face turned pale, and Xiang Khan unconsciously showed her forehead and neck, pulled Raklifo's arm, and timidly reminded: "Master." ”

Coleford was unmoved, put on his clothes, still looked indifferent, and said slowly: "Second prince, you are actually about to face a catastrophe, and you yourself don't know it. If this continues, the day will not be far before I attend your funeral. ”

Hearing the words "catastrophe is coming", the second prince suddenly remembered the information that Alia provided him, and Collie said so at that time, and his mind instantly calmed down, didn't he really hear something? Fortunately, I listened to what he had to say, but the face refused to be put down so easily, and sat heavily in the chair, shouting, "Good! I'd like to hear what you have to say, but I may warn you beforehand that I've recently had a few new hounds, and they're so fierce that if you make sense, if they don't, I'll let you make food for them. ”

Hearing this, Arya only felt that her heart was tugged at by something, and she began to really worry about Cleford, although it was because he gained power later, but she was also really worried, and pulled Cleif's sleeve again, staring straight at him with a pair of big eyes, and said in a nervous voice: "Lord, master." ”

The second prince Eva still didn't speak, took the wine to her mouth and took a sip lightly, a pair of bright eyes stared straight at Cleford, her eyes were full of appreciation, but more curiosity, she wanted to see what this Cleifer wanted to say, whether she could impress the second prince, at this moment, she had a little more affection for Cleif, because she felt that this person was very mysterious.

Collie didn't take care of the emotions of the three of them at all, just like there were no three people in front of him, his eyes stared straight ahead, as if he was talking to himself: "Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, you want to compete with the eldest prince for the succession to the throne, this matter is well known, I don't think there is any need to hide it." ”

The second prince did not speak, but acquiesced, and his eyes were staring straight at Clifford.

Clifford didn't avoid his eyes, stared at him for a few seconds, and said slowly: "Before, you relied on the power of Anthony and Bol, and there was still the possibility of fighting against the eldest prince. But now, once the new policy is implemented, the military and political power of the kingdom will return to the old king, and the old king's favorite heir is the eldest prince, you should know, when the time comes, the throne and power will be the eldest prince, you have been against him for so long, will he let you go? ”

The second prince snorted coldly, and said in his heart that this is not all picked by you, and he frowned coldly at Kelifu, and said without yin or yang, "How can you be sure that your new policy will be implemented?" "The implication is that don't think I don't know what you're planning, if you don't make it clear today, I will never let you go to the eldest prince alive.

Collie shook his head a little helplessly, I really don't know how the IQ of this second prince is, and he is still obsessed, either he is fascinated by the temptation of the throne, or he is stupid to a certain point, and said: "The new policy will definitely be implemented, because no one will object." Second Prince, I believe you can also see that this new deal is essentially the king's demand for power from local forces, and the king will definitely succeed in the future. First, the king would have the support of the local authorities by setting up councils at all levels so that they could oversee the policies of the local governors, and by pulling them to his side, the king's chances of victory would be greatly increased. Secondly, the members of the council at all levels are elected by the local population, which gives the benefit of the people, and the millions of people in the Rhine kingdom will support it, which will also increase the chances of the king winning. Moreover, with the checks of the councils at all levels, the governors could not do whatever they wanted at the local level, and if their administration did not conform to the law, they would be refuted by the parliament, so that the power of the governors would be hit, and the deprivation of judicial power would make them even more weak in the confrontation with the central government. ”
