Chapter 106: Brother
“…… It turns out that the Kingdom of Turin will not follow in the footsteps of the Kingdom of Schiller and the Kingdom of Atta, and will not follow in the end of being able to hide in the protective shield of the capital because of its inability to fight against the Fallen Demons! We can keep the Fallen out of the Cold Spring! The east will be regained in the future! The Kingdom of Turin – will live forever! ”
As he spoke, Fajerez III, whose face was flushed with excitement, raised his glass and said loudly: "Let's fight for the kingdom and the army!" Cheers! ”
In the banquet hall, all the nobles raised their glasses and drank them all.
After the king's speech, the banquet changed to its usual form, and the nobles walked through the banquet hall with their wine glasses, or exchanged pleasantries or conversations, so that the banquet hall resounded with the sound of people's conversation.
Rolando followed Fajerez III respectfully, taking a sip only when his father was drinking. The wine for this banquet was all purchased from the Bronze Thirteen, and for Rolando, it was fresh and delicious. But he would never be stupid enough to be greedy for a cup by his father's side, and he had to keep a clear head at such times.
At this time, Fajerez III sent away a nobleman who came to congratulate him, glanced behind him, and muttered for a moment: "Your eldest brother hasn't come yet?" ”
Noticing the displeasure in his father's tone, Rolando was happy in his heart, but he did not express this joy, he said, "I didn't see the eldest brother appear, father. ”
Rolando saw that Fajerez III's face flashed a hint of gloom.
"This kid has never been obedient, and I don't know if he was bewitched by the Kurtu family, and he has never been close to me. He's no different from you in this respect! Fajerez III grumbled in a low voice.
Rolando was almost overjoyed, his father had always been similar to himself and Defoe, and it was not many times that he expressed his displeasure with his eldest brother so bluntly! He suppressed the excitement in his heart, and said with a stiff face: "After all, his mother is from the Kurtu family. ”
Fajerez III snorted lightly, raised his eyes to look at Rolando, and said, "You don't need to tell me this!" ”
Rolando knew that what he said was a little out of bounds, and quickly lowered his head: "I know, father." ”
Fajerez III had two wives, the first of whom was from the House of Courtu, and Rolando heard that it was a beautiful woman, and Fajerez III gave birth to Defoe, and Defoe died of illness when he was three years old. Rolando had heard Lovren say more than once that Fajerez III didn't really like his first wife, and it was all a political marriage to appease the Kurtu family!
The Kurtu family occupies almost one-fifth of the western part of the kingdom, and has never been very peaceful. So Fajerez III did not have a very good impression of the Kurtu family.
Both Rolando and Phinea were born to the second wife of Fajerez III, and Rolando remembers very well how close his father and mother were. It can be said that this intimacy is also one of the core reasons why Rolando is confident that he can inherit the throne.
It's just that Rolando doesn't know whether the Kurtu family will become a help or an obstacle to Defoe, in case his father chooses Defoe for the sake of the stability of the kingdom and the peace of the Kurtu family?
This kind of thing is probably known only to Fajerez III himself.
"Come on, you have a lot of friends, go and accompany your friends. Leave me alone in peace and quiet. Fajerez III said.
Rolando could tell that his father really wanted to be quiet, so he bowed and left from Fajerez III.
"Hello Your Highness!"
"Your Highness has a drink?"
"Hah! Long time no see! ”
Wherever he went, Rolando would meet the nobles who greeted him, and Rolando greeted him with a smile, chatted a few words and walked forward. He could also detect the admiring and eager gazes of the noble ladies around him, and while enjoying them in his heart, Rolando tried not to squint. After walking like this for a while, he finally found his purpose.
"Marquis Calvi!"
"Ah, Your Highness! Long time no see! Calvi had a look of surprise on his face.
Rolando walked up to Calvi and raised his voice slightly, "As you know, my father recently appointed me with full authority to deal with the refugees in Kiel City, although Lord Feng Chen has provided a specific strategy and outline, but I am really lacking in skills alone!" Do I have the privilege of inviting you to be a part of this work? ”
Calvi pondered for a moment and said, "No, Your Highness, I admit that this job is a great opportunity to deepen my friendship with you, but for some reason, I'm afraid I can't help you!" ”
"Ahh It's a shame! ”
Afterwards, Rolando and Calvi chatted about the new gadgets of the Bronze Thirteen, and the two tacitly read each other's meaning from each other's eyes:
The news is out......
There will be more nobles to contact......
Dealing with the refugees in Kiel City is not only to strengthen Rolando's own abilities, increase his weight in the mind of Fajerez III, improve his relationship with the Earth Federation, and deepen his relationship with more powerful nobles, but also an important goal for Rolando.
Rolando had already found some nobles to participate in the resettlement of the refugees, and he and Calvi had only made the news more widespread at the banquet.
After a moment's conversation, there was an announcement outside, and Defoe had arrived.
Rolando immediately went to his father, only to find that Fajerez III was no longer in the banquet hall.
Well, Defoe must have made the impression that his father had not come to the victory banquet at all.
"Perhaps you should come up and say hello, Your Highness." Calvi pretended to pour wine and whispered beside Rolando.
Rolando nodded secretly and walked straight towards Defoe.
Rolando was also curious, Defoe should have attended the victory banquet on time! Defoe was a power-hungry man, and he wasn't the kind of fool who would give up the throne as a prince. In the past, Defoe always ran faster than himself in such moments of showing his face or when his father cared, so why didn't he come until the middle of the banquet today?
"Big brother!" Rolando walked up to Defoe, who was actually eating...... Rolando thought about it, it seemed to be called a chocolate cake in the Bronze Thirteen. Rolando himself loves to eat.
"Why are you here now! Father has been waiting for you for a long time. Rolando said.
Defoe slowly swallowed the food in his mouth and glanced at Rolando coldly, "I'm in trouble." ”
Something?
Rolando suddenly laughed: "I don't know what's going on, it's been delaying my eldest brother for so long?" ”
"What are you asking for?" Defoe looked at his brother coldly, "Didn't you get the opportunity to settle the refugees in Kiel City?" This is a matter that my father and the group of strangers attach great importance to, so you should pay attention to such a big matter. Be careful, if something goes wrong! ”
Got in trouble? What did this guy hear? Are you cursing yourself? Or is he going to do something?
Rolando's mind was spinning for a moment.
Defoe sneered and walked away from Rolando. Take a look at the latest chapter of "I Have a Von Neumann Claw Book House" to read for free for the first time.
