Can Master Dewey's son do whatever he wants?

Isn't this tantamount to saying in disguise: If you have money, you can do whatever you want?

Yes, you're right, you can do whatever you want with money.

And I don't just have money, I have the army.

I wanted to choke him with these words, but I was afraid that this guy would really jump off the wall in a hurry, and give an order to take me down and behead me in public, so how wronged I am!

I came alone this time, but I made up my mind, if it wasn't for the fact that I could unilaterally deter the other party, why should I do this?

After being silent for a long time, I said lightly: "It's far away, let's get back to the topic, I just want to ask Your Majesty, do you plan to abandon the Knights of the Round Table Guild, or do you plan to live and die with it and never abandon it?" ”

This is a very hard question, no different from a forced question, but I did it on purpose.

From the beginning, I showed a tough attitude, and in the end, I still have to show the same tough attitude.

Anticlimactic will be looked down upon.

Carter Horton glared at me, and suddenly laughed, laughing, he stood up, straightened the hem of the silk shirt, paced slowly to me, and said loudly: "He is worthy of being a young hero, he speaks hard and simply, unlike an old man like me, who will only look forward and backward, and dare not judge easily." ”

"You are old and serious," I smiled and said, "I also want to learn, but I am too young to learn, and my personality is not suitable, only like a stone, hard and cold, although it is annoying, but at least I can hold my heart, not to be disturbed by foreign objects, not to be deceived by temptation." ”

"Let's get down to business," Horton said in a deep voice, "If I helped you this time, what would you give me in return?" ”

"Did you misunderstand something," I said lightly, "You are only focusing on the return, but you are ignoring a very important thing. ”

"What's the matter?"

"The woman who was hunted down was killed by an ambush in Eri City, and just like that, you still want to repay me?"

With a chuckle, I continued, "If she had traveled all the way through Ari City, I would naturally owe you a favor, but now that the situation is the opposite, I think that not holding a grudge against you because of this matter is already the greatest favor to you, isn't it?" ”

In the room, the atmosphere suddenly cooled.

Carter Horton demanded something in return, and I demanded that he hand over the Knights of the Round Table for free.

The two phases are stalemate and cannot be compatible.

Just when the two of us were going toe-to-toe with each other, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open, and an expressionless middle-aged man quickly walked in, walked quickly to Horton's side, and whispered to him.

In just a few words, Carter Horton's expression changed suddenly, and there was strong emotion in his eyes when he looked at me, I couldn't tell whether it was anger or helplessness, but I could be sure that it had nothing to do with happiness.

Waving his hand and driving the man out of the room, Carter Horton exhaled heavily and said in a deep voice: "Since I ascended to power, no one in the land of Ari City has ever dared to disobey me, let alone threaten me, you are the first ......"

He stretched out his index finger and kept pointing at me, and his trembling fingers couldn't stop as if they were epilepsy.

Sighing deeply, Horton weakly lowered his right hand, took two steps back, slumped in his chair, and said weakly: "If you win, I will contact York Hancheng and hand over the Knights of the Round Table Guild." ”

"I hope you can unite with the Lord of York City and sell the Knights of the Round Table Guild to me" I still looked relaxed and indifferent, walked back to the chair, sat down slowly, put my chin on my arm, looked at the weak Horton playfully, and smiled: "If you can do it, I will be grateful." ”

Horton sneered: "Gratitude without reciprocating is what kind of gratitude." ”

"Do you really think that I have nothing in return?" Shaking my head, I said, "Then you can blame me, presumably, you know my identity as the prime minister of Dasai City, right?" ”

Horton frowned: "What if you know?" ”

"Recently, I heard that a mine purchased by Dasai City on public land has been occupied by a group of well-trained bandits, what do you think about this?"

Horton was slightly stunned, silent for a long time, and said hoarsely: "It's hard for you to be able to see their identities." ”

"It's not difficult at all," I denied: "It's just that the person who came up with this plan is a bit stupid, Dasai City has just expelled the bandits and bandits for a long time, and you sent people over to pretend to be bandits and robbers and forcibly occupy the mines, well, suppose there are such bold bandits who are not afraid of death, but have you ever thought about it, many bandits and bandits are from wandering adventurers, how can they show the temperament of a well-trained regular army?" Oh, and forgot, you're not an adventurer, so it's no wonder you came up with such a scheme. ”

"What about the return?" Horton asked directly, no longer beating around the bush.

"The payoff is that I didn't leak the conclusions of the analysis."

"So, that's your return?" Horton sneered: "Didn't report the truth of the matter to the Orc King as the prime minister of Dasai City? ”

"That's not the case," I shook my head, "but instead of reporting this invasion with obvious intentions to Moonlight City and Castle Vechie, I think you know the contents of the Triple Entente well, and you won't fail to understand the consequences of such an obviously aggressive move." ”

Horton looked at me coldly and said in a deep voice: "Your aggressive personality is very similar to one of my brothers. ”

I smiled indifferently and said, "Your conceited personality is also very similar to an opponent I once met. ”

At this point in the conversation, we raised our teacups and touched them lightly, and Carter Horton said, "This is the first time we have raised our glasses, and hopefully the last time." ”

"Don't be so ruthless," I said with a smile: "The mountains don't turn around, everyone will come to Japan for a long time, maybe when you can raise a glass and drink together, and talk freely with candles." ”

Horton sneered again, got up, and left.

Before going out, he said, "I still have to worry about you not to leave Eri City for a few days, and when everything is arranged here, I will send someone over and present all the arrangements to you." ”

"Then thank you, Your Majesty."

Little Red Fish then came in, brought a pot of hot water, made a pot of new tea, and poured tea for me, while saying, "It's the first time I've seen someone from Eri City dare to talk to the city lord like this, and he can still survive. ”

"He doesn't mind killing me, but he's worried that if he kills me, he and his family will die," I said coldly.

Sipping my tea, I continued, "But I can finally figure out why he's so ruthless, especially to the slum dwellers. ”

"Oh?" Little Redfish asked, "Why?" ”

"He didn't treat those people as human beings at all" I frowned, and said in a deep voice: "He only treats those people as tools that can be contributed, no human rights, no freedom, wanton exploitation, crazy oppression, as long as there is still a breath, as long as he can get up, he must continue to be used until he dies." ”
