Chapter 90: Conflict

"It's Your Majesty Evan, it's the first time we've met since you stepped down from your throne. ”

The speaker was an old man in a white robe, holding a long hookah in his hand and wearing a golden snake-patterned family crest ring at the end of the little finger of his right hand. Sitting by the flower bed accompanied by an old servant, he looked very old, thin, like a shriveled monkey, but he was dressed in a wide white robe, and there was a subtle sense of vicissitudes.

This sentence seems to be just a simple greeting, but judging from Ivan's recent situation, it is an irony that he has never held real power, and he has removed his identity as the Sun King, and he has no qualifications to play music at all.

“......”

Ivan turned his head when he heard the sound, glanced at him, and gently put Xia Li down:

"Who is this?"

"Tirek from House Hillmond below, you haven't dealt with government affairs, so it's not surprising that you don't know me. ”

The old nobleman sat motionless, looking drooping and old, but his tone had a hint of arrogance that did not match his age.

"He is the current Chancellor of the Exchequer. ”

The priest girl tugged at the hem of his clothes and whispered.

"It's Lord Tirek. ”

Evan pretended to be awake and nodded, picked up a thin wine glass from the waiter's plate, sipped the liquid in it, and looked back at the old man:

"Since you remember that I was the Sun King for two days, then you should also know that I still have the royal title and the ceremonial ride, and what kind of etiquette should be held in the face of the king, doesn't the Chancellor of the Exchequer know anything about it?"

"Her Majesty has served the Empire for many years in old age, and now she is old and frail, and she is granted admission to the palace without ceremony. His Majesty, despite his noble status, still needs to act according to the Queen's will. ”

Tirek raised an eyebrow, and after a pun on it, he glanced at him lukewarmly, and returned to his old posture.

"Excuse me, what did you say?"

Evan pinched the thin glass cup, took another sip of the liquid in the cup, and then looked at him suspiciously, as if he hadn't heard anything.

“......”

The old nobleman frowned, and was about to speak, and then suddenly startled, and found that his body actually stood up uncontrollably, and the whole person was like a marionette, manipulated by invisible filaments, and walked in the direction of the puppet king.

“......”

Ivan looked at him seemingly calmly, his eyes were dark, but if he looked deeply, he would feel that there was a scorching flame burning inside, which seemed to be an illusion caused by reflecting the moonlight, and seemed to be peeking into his own heart.

My body, how could it be!?

It's telekinesis!

How dare he!

Tirek's heart was furious, but his body still walked forward uncontrollably, and he lowered his head tremblingly, as if he was ready to bow down on his knees.

He raised his head and looked at Evan's seemingly calm demeanor at this time, and the arrogant self-esteem suddenly ached, as if it was covering the sores on the ground, and suddenly it was punctured and pus and blood flowed out!

Never!!!!!!

He roared violently in his heart, and with his willpower, he stubbornly resisted the trend of his body, and stood in front of the other party trembling all over.

"Head of the house!?"

The old servant quickly noticed that something was wrong with his master, quickly turned his head, and looked at Evan, his eyes flashed red, and he stared at the other party in the air.

However, at the moment of staring at him, his consciousness and body suddenly shook, as if an invisible force suddenly radiated. Vaguely shrouded in the void in all directions, it contracted and squeezed inward fiercely, making his soul have a distorted feeling.

“......”

The old servant's gaze was gone, and he became hollow, as if he had forgotten everything that had just happened, and stood there stupidly.

At this moment, Tirek also noticed Ivan's eyes, those incredible black eyes, looked at his eyes again, pitch black, fierce, and pierced the heart, as if he could penetrate the body and directly examine the soul.

Even though he has been removed from the throne of the Sun King, he still has the divine power of the Hades King and is a highly meritorious judge. I was stupid, why did I have to jump out and be the first target.

Suddenly, remorse swam through the old nobleman's heart like a snake, leaving a cold trace.

That's it, the Hades King is furious, how can he be a mortal?

He bowed his head as if he was dead and gave up resistance, but at this moment, the force that oppressed him suddenly disappeared.

"No courtesy, no courtesy!"

Evan greeted him with a warm face, held Tirek's palm hanging by his side, and supported his figure: "I just said casually, where do you dare to let Your Excellency perform this great gift, if Lord Tirek doesn't want to leave, you can stay overnight." ”

His current actions and demeanor, combined with the performance of the old nobleman just now, were as if the other party really wanted to salute, but was naturally dissuaded by him, with a posture of mutual humility and harmony.

"Don't dare, don't dare, since Your Majesty is not interested, of course we are inconvenient to disturb, and I bid farewell to Your Majesty on behalf of the Hilmond family. Tirek's eyes blinked, and he understood, and immediately announced his departure with an extremely deferential gesture.

As an old fritter who has been in the officialdom for decades, he doesn't understand that he was slapped and rewarded with a date, but he is still grateful in his heart, after all, he relied on the mercy of the other party's subordinates to avoid a humiliation, and of course he also knows how to repay the favor.

“......”

The nobles present were also confused, why were the two sides still in a tense attitude just now, and now they became so humble, could it be that they made a deal at that moment just now!?

However, since the thorn head did not intend to continue to entangle, they were not easy to say anything, and there was a lack of other important characters to come forward, so they could only pinch their noses and follow them.

“......”

Ivan looked at the figures of the nobles scattering birds and beasts, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, raised his thin wine glass, raised his neck and drank the wine.

Rather than fighting with this kind of old bastard in the officialdom, he prefers to come directly to the hard, but there is no need to do things absolutely, after all, many philosophies in the porcelain country emphasize the truth that it is too rigid and easy to break, and it is too much.

"Brother Evan is so handsome!"

Xia Li looked at him with bright eyes, almost turning into a pink peach, and then frowned, revealing a melancholy expression: "If Sister Ailu Luomei is unhappy and wants to punish you again, what should I do?"

"Don't worry, it's her request for me now. ”

Evan summoned the attendant, put the wine glass back on the tray, and looked in the direction of the distant court, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes: "No one knows that guy's character better than me, she is a person whose reason is above emotion, and in the face of the threat of the dreadbeast, she will not embarrass me for this little thing." ”
