Chapter 92: Private
The etiquette of the nobles is complex, elegant and extremely noble, although Feng Chen is the supreme consul of the Federation, but in the eyes of the nobles of the Kingdom of Turin, Feng Chen's rude behavior shows that he is a complete barbarian. Look at how he eats meat! It's like you've never eaten meat before!
Some people who had heard the wind before and had a vague understanding of Feng Chen and his party were suddenly full of contempt for Feng Chen and his party. Hum! It's mysterious, but in fact, they're just some savages who have mastered great power!
Finia didn't have any dissatisfaction with Feng Chen's appearance, but she could feel the implicit meaning in the eyes of some nobles, so she reminded her.
"The nobles of the royal capital are conservative, stubborn and arrogant, and although you have great power, they will not cooperate, and even sabotage in secret, causing many problems for our actions. So if you can, try not to provoke them offended. Finia then said in a voice that only two people could hear.
Feng Chen didn't think so, in his opinion, interests and strength were the decisive factors, a little prejudice and disgust was really nothing, besides, most of these nobles were also the objects he had to deal with, and he didn't have to care what these people thought of him. Thinking that Finia's reminder was also out of kindness, Feng Chen smiled and said, "I know. ”
However, his eating movements did not slow down.
Finia sighed and went to work on other things, as a princess who returned to the royal capital after more than a year, she had no shortage of things at all.
After more than twenty minutes, Feng Chen finally had enough to eat and drink. During this period, some nobles tried to talk, but Feng Chen was really hungry, his mind was on eating, and he didn't hear what the other party was saying, so naturally he didn't talk.
At this time, a guard came to Feng Chen's side and said in a low voice, "Hello, Your Majesty invites you over." ”
"Lead the way." Feng Chen said.
In one corner of the hall, outside the glass-embedded doors, there is a semicircular balcony. From here you can see the manicured bushes of the palace, and you can faintly see ostriches (at least ostriches) walking slowly as if eating, and the sun has completely sunset, leaving only an orange glow in the sky, which soon disappears except for the leaden gray clouds.
Walking through the glass-embedded door, Feng Chen saw Fajerez III, who was also alone, standing on the balcony, obviously waiting for him.
Compared with the nobles who are out of shape and full of corruption in their faces, Fajerez III is more or less a handsome old man, and he has a good figure, which is much more pleasing to the eye.
"Hello, my name is Feng Chen." Feng Chen walked up to the other party and said.
"Hello, Fernando Fajerez." In a rare move, Fajerez III gave his full name.
Then, he looked at Feng Chen with an incomprehensible gaze for a while, and suddenly said, "I have a question for you—why did you come to Turin?" Why are you helping us? What exactly is your purpose? ”
Feng Chen thought that the other party invited him to come to talk about some friendships, but he never expected the other party to come to such a show, and asked directly about the purpose of Feng Chen's trip.
Compared with the last time they met, this Fajerez III brought a completely different feeling to Feng Chen: the other party was more like a king.
Of course, Feng Chen wouldn't be worried or anything.
I'm the supreme consul of the Union!
Feng Chen smiled lightly and said, "Are you interrogating me?" ”
Fajerez III was stunned: "This is naturally not, although it cannot be confirmed, but you should not be from our Turin Kingdom, in all aspects, I will not interrogate you." ”
Feng Chen noticed that Fajerez III's answer was shifting concepts, but he didn't break it either.
Feng Chen sighed deliberately and said, "To be honest, I'm disappointed. Your entire civilization is threatened by the Fallen. And when the opportunity arises for a more powerful civilization to help you out, you are doubting the purpose of this much stronger civilization. This narrow vision is really disappointing to me. ”
"It's just what you claim to be powerful at the moment."
"Need a try?" Feng Chen said immediately. At this moment, Feng Chen was very willing to show his muscles.
Fajerez III turned his gaze unnaturally: "Then you don't have to. ”
He continued: "I can understand your disappointment. But you can also think of it, from our point of view, we have to worry. What if the battle against the Demon Fallen is over and an even stronger enemy is ushered in? What if the Fallen Demon is gone, and we are gone? As a head of a kingdom, I have to think about these questions. ”
"Can you give me an answer?"
Now it was obviously a private occasion, so Feng Chen didn't speak politely, he said, "No need at all!" We come from a civilization whose territory is wider than yours, whose knowledge is broader and deeper than yours, and whose technology is many times ahead of you, and who is more than a little ahead of you as a whole, and in our eyes, you are like the ancients hundreds of thousands of years ago. ”
Fajerez III was speechless for a while, he really couldn't think of any intentions for the small Turin Kingdom if Feng Chen and the others were really as powerful as they said, and even needed to beat around the bush to achieve their goals. If it's yourself, even if you really want something, you can just go to war and grab it, so why bother to help the other party fight against the demon fallen?
The ostriches below seemed to smell the aroma, and at this time they leaned down the hall and made a cry from time to time to the upper floor, and most of the people in the hall did not hear it, and were still chatting happily.
These cries made Fajerez III react quickly: "But you didn't answer my question directly!" You're just saying you're stronger than us! I'm not you, how can I think of what you need? Maybe you need it, but you just didn't tell me! And my experience has made me even more willing to believe that you definitely have something to seek! ”
Feng Chen couldn't help but sigh in his heart, who said that the ancients were stupid, the feudal king in front of him had never learned logic at all, but he also reflected the trap he set in his words!
But the character design can't collapse!
"Whatever you want. Maybe you've gotten to the point where you've come to understand what we're doing. The development of civilization has brought not only material abundance, but also great moral improvement. What you think has to be a matter of interest to act, but what we see as basic morality. Will you ignore the abandoned baby on the side of the road and not save it? For us, the current situation is like you have met an abandoned baby on the side of the road. Feng Chen continued to flicker.
It turns out that as long as you keep flickering, there is no flickering that is not lame. Sure enough, Fajerez III showed a look of doubt about himself, although Feng Chen's comparison of the Kingdom of Turin to an abandoned baby on the side of the road made him a little uncomfortable, but he had to admit that what Feng Chen said had some truth.
"I hope we can get the people of Kiel back as soon as possible. Believe me, the technology of the Federation is absolutely reliable. Feng Chen patted Fajerez III on the shoulder and quickly fled from this place of right and wrong.
