Chapter 89: Undercurrent

Candova knew that the feud between the Thunder and the Chancellor of the Exchequer was something that all the Titans knew, and that the son of the Thunder, the real Thunder, was killed by the Chancellor of the Exchequer eight or nine times out of ten. For Thunder, he is a highly principled soldier, no matter how deep his personal enmity is, he will never do that thing of colluding with foreign enemies, but for the Chancellor of the Exchequer who was born as a profiteer, it is very normal to do whatever it takes to achieve his goals, as long as there is a bottom line.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer and the Arda have a private intersection, which is a secret known to all the Titans, and the Thunder accuses the Chancellor of betraying military intelligence to kill his own son, and he is helpless against him. Why do you say this, first of all, as the supreme financial officer of the interstellar empire, even if Alda is the enemy of the Titans, the two countries still have some overlap in terms of non-governmental economic cooperation, except for the war.

In business, the people in power in the two countries are not so ignorant as to blockade the economy in order to fight a war. After all, there are not only two races in the interstellar world, but there are other alien races. These merchants of the alien race happen to be agents of the economies of the two countries, helping them resell things to each other to earn the difference in price.

Therefore, it is normal for you to have a little connection with other people as a financial officer, but if you have no relationship, you are not normal. Of course, the Chancellor of the Exchequer has great power and is subject to the greatest supervision by the state, and generally speaking, the national economic income is stable, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer has not undermined the national order or betrayed the country's intelligence.

However, this time the Chancellor of the Exchequer is the father of Her Royal Highness the Queen, the Empress is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and the old emperor is comfortable to serve, so how can the cunning Chancellor of the Exchequer leave a handle for Thunder?

It's just that the two families have had a personal feud since the previous generation, and this time the chancellor of the exchequer began to collude with the Arda people, which also shows that he is determined to have the throne of the third prince.

The lifespan of the Titans is more than 300 years old, and according to the scrutiny of the earthlings, those who look more than 40 years old are likely to be more than 100 years old, and those who really look old are probably over 200 years old. So when Lei Luo saw that the charm still existed, the middle-aged queen thought of "old and young", in fact, this queen has been reigning for more than 40 years, and she is over 60 years old.

The third prince was born by the emperor and the empress in his twilight years, and at this time he looked like a young man in his twenties, but in fact he was in his forties. However, the crown prince is already 200 years old, and he is not in good health, so it is difficult to sit in the position for a long time.

Smart people are afraid that they will choose the third prince, because he is young and heroic and ambitious. On the other hand, the crown prince, when he is old, always leads people to be humble, humble to the princes and princesses, and the third prince is too conniving.

To tell the truth, the ambitious courtier just likes the ambitious emperor, and Lei Ting is the ambitious courtier, but his personal enmity with the Chancellor of the Exchequer is also obvious to all, even if he is reluctant, I am afraid that he will still stand in the prince's ranks.

However, Thunder is not optimistic about the crown prince, but his daughter Han Tianwei Claire, the so-called eldest princess of the so-called grandson!

Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is actually the same age as the third prince, she is a rare smart person, with excellent brains and abilities. Whether it is character, talent or ability, she can definitely be the heir of the prince, but she also has a shortcoming, that is, she has the same virtue as her father and has no ambition!

In the royal family, you have the supreme position, but you don't have enough ambition, then it is no different from waiting for death. Sooner or later, you will be co-opted by other siblings to defeat you and then kill you.

It's just that the consciousness of her father and daughter is not enough, her heart is not ruthless enough, and her methods are not poisonous enough, and sooner or later she will step down.

Candova was obviously not as pessimistic as the thunder, he crossed Erlang's legs and began to sit there without an image and said to the thunder: "Although they are soft-hearted, they are not stupid, and this is also a manifestation of their wisdom and benevolence."

"Sage?" Thunder sneered: "Are they called Xianming?" ”

"Oh, anyway, the assassination of Princess Claire this time will definitely not end here!" Candovar paused and said: "Princess Claire, I understand, although she is kind-hearted, it doesn't mean that she is a compromised master, this time she didn't die must have touched her a lot, if she is still that indisputable mind this time, then Thunder, I think you should think about a way out early!" ”

Lei Ting nodded and said: "I have been busy with this matter for more than two months, I have been observing the reaction of Her Royal Highness the Princess, and Her Royal Highness the Crown Prince has also moved the real fire this time, and it is rare to repair a few people from the Three Princes' Party!" ”

"But it's also a flash in the pan, I think he's really old and deaf, if Princess Claire has the mind to compete for the throne, I will definitely support her with all my might, but she hasn't seen any big action now!" Thunder said in a sudden tone.

"The prince is old, it's normal, I think he doesn't even care about the crown prince, I think this doesn't work, we can only accelerate the conflict between them and make the prince sober!" Candova said in a rare serious tone.

Lei Ting said: "I don't have expectations for the crown prince, I think this time you go to Her Royal Highness the eldest princess to find out, as long as she is willing, I will support her, if she is still the kind of fence wall that can't be supported, and she still has illusions about the three princes, I think I am really ready to arrange a way back for myself!" ”

Candova looked at him meaningfully: "What is your back road?" ”

Lei Ting smiled: "Lao Tzu will not do the thing of defecting to the enemy and betraying the country, but who knows if there is a need to do the thing of self-reliance?" After all, I just want to live and my family can prosper! ”

Candowa smiled silently: "I'm afraid there are not a few people who think like you, and the prince is too unpopular!" ”

"He's too soft, too soft means cowardice, and it's a matter of time later!"

Candova sighed and stood up and said, "Okay, I'll go for a trip, if Her Royal Highness the princess is the same, then I will support you to find another way!" ”

Thunder nodded: "You also let the people of your family make some preparations, if I leave the Three Emperors, I will probably attack you!" ”

Candova said: "Got it. Then he turned and left.

Raylo returned to his home on Titan on a transport ship. He was the only one in the empty room, but fortunately he was used to living alone.

Jessica Rello couldn't help but raise her hand to look at the rooftop, and missed her not long after leaving! By the way, didn't I bring a lot of gems, so let's sell them?

However, Lei Luo is not a person of Meng Lang, and there are not a few interstellar adventurers in Titans, but most of them get black goods. Black goods are naturally sold on the black market, and since it is a black market, the price will definitely be discounted.

In fact, many interstellar adventurers have dual identities, and when they arrive in the empire, they are members of the adventurer's guild, but in the outer star field, who knows if they will be pirates who kill people and steal goods?

Interstellar pirates are repeatedly banned, as long as there are no pirates making trouble in the inner galaxy of the Titan Star Field, the military is too lazy to suppress bandits on a large scale. The most important thing is that the pirates should be sensible, give the military some benefits, and don't mess with the people you shouldn't mess with, and the Titans will turn a blind eye and let you go free.

On Earth, the biggest pirate leader is not some Redbeard, some Pirates of the Caribbean, but Her Royal Highness the Queen of England. In the Age of Discovery, a major factor in the rise of Britain was Her Royal Highness the Queen, who secretly supported British ships to become pirates and plundered everywhere, and as long as a part of the proceeds was handed over to the British royal family every time, she was recognized and supported by the British.

At that time, the Dutch and Portuguese were not killed, and when the British made a fortune as pirates, it was too late for them to repair people's homes, and the glory of the empire on which the sun never set had already shone on the entire ocean!

Lei Luo didn't know if the Titan Empire had ever done such a thing as an interstellar pirate, at least he hadn't seen it literally described like this when he sorted out the history of the Titans, but you said that the collusion of officials and bandits, I'm afraid it's still a bit possible.

Most of the pirates raid in some gray areas, and few arrogant ones can run into the interior of the Titan Star Field, because this will affect the merits of the local governors, so many local governors are very strict with pirates.

Having said all this, it is actually because Lei Luo does not want these jewels to be traded on the black market. Although most of the diamonds and gemstones he owns can only be regarded as broken diamonds, there are still a few superb, such as the ruby in his hand at the moment, which is the size of a thumb, and is polished smooth and flawless, and can definitely make a superb shot.

As soon as Lei Luo thought of Jessica, he thought that he should have a part in the inheritance, so he started to open his brain and began to browse the information of major auction houses.

Relo will sell these gems as an adventurer, because his gems are not black goods, they don't have that kind of dirty history, and once the auction house collects them, they will help him drive up the price.

It's just that there is room to do things, the reason why Lei Luo chose the auction house is also because he is afraid of being slaughtered, it depends on the attitude of the auction house, if he wants to hack himself, then he can only reveal a little about being the son of Thunder.

Lei Luo is not afraid that Thunder knows, does he still have an opinion on earning some private money? He's not a kid anymore, and he can't let himself turn it in?

However, Lei Luo also has concerns, he knows that Thunder has a political enemy, and the power of this political enemy is not small, so it is better for him to choose a third-party auction house, at least not on both sides! Soon Lei Luo picked an auction house called the Night Auction House.

The Dark Night Auction House is a large-scale auction house opened by the Dark Night Clan, which belongs to the interstellar chain auction, which means that when encountering treasures, an online live auction will be held between the star fields, and the local tyrants of each star field can compete for the auction.

The appearance of the Night Clan is somewhat similar to the Night Elves described in the novel, they have handsome faces and elegant temperament, but they like to wear extremely colorful clothes, which is a relatively high-profile race.

This race is only a small country, not as strong as Alda and Titans, but they also belong to a third-party alliance, the Merchant's Alliance!
