Chapter 153: Conflict
One day later, the imperial capital ushered in the wedding of Wayne and Audrey, and the more and more lively atmosphere filled all corners of the imperial capital.
Shops take the opportunity to put up promotions, women in clothing stores take the opportunity to satisfy their desires, and men vent their worries by drinking special drinks in taverns. Behind the scenes, the businessmen watched happily as their fortunes skyrocketed.
The city defense force has also stepped up patrols to prevent thieves from taking advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos.
So there are a lot of conflicts, it's not the gangster Arthur Brotherhood in the eastern part of the outer eastern part of the imperial capital who accidentally collided with a city defense army, and the two sides have to take a big shot for this, if it weren't for the restraint of the leaders of both sides, there would be some bloody conflicts.
What's more, it is rare that the Arthurian Brotherhood, which usually likes to bow its head and act with its head, dares to defy the city defense army today. It also seems to be a sign that something bad is happening.
Audrey has been taken back to the palace at the moment, silently waiting for tomorrow's wedding. Tomorrow she will be the protagonist of the whole show, and no one will be able to take her place.
Olmedo withdrew his robe and came to Audrey's side.
Audrey looked for prestige and said softly.
"Father. ”
It's like saying goodbye, and it's like reluctance.
Olmedo naturally knew what her daughter was thinking at the moment, and gently held Audrey's hand.
"When you were a child, I was like this, your hand, and I went around in this garden. It seems like you just don't want to stop. You always like to sit on my shoulders and dance in the air with flowers in your hands. Also likes to hit the petals on the ground and roll on them. It's just nostalgia. ”
Audrey said with a worried face.
"Father, did you use the magic array, is it worth it just for my wedding? ”
Olmedo reassured.
"Audrey, worth it. It's not just for you, it's for me. For the past two years, I have been lying in bed in a state of sickness, almost in that airtight room for two years, and the taste is really unpleasant. But now, I have as much energy as I did when I was younger, and these days are the happiest I've had in years. ”
"But father, you don't have much to live. ”
"Audrey, I don't have much to live, maybe I won't live more than a month. And Audrey people will eventually grow old and die, even decades from now. But the most important thing is what you leave behind, and you are the most precious treasure I have left in the world. ”
Audrey couldn't help but squeeze her father's hand.
"Father, I won't let you down. ”
Olmedo laughed.
"There is no disappointment, as long as you live well, I will be very happy. Although Wayne cares a lot about his career, he may even be alone with you. But you need to understand that marriage is a process of understanding for both parties. If I had let go of my obsession with your mother, maybe your mother would have been able to walk peacefully. ”
Olmedo recalled the sad past and couldn't help but say melancholy.
"Father and mother may have been very satisfied. After all, you always love her, and your mother can definitely feel that. ”
Olmedo smiled with satisfaction.
"My family Audrey has grown up. ”
"Father, I suddenly don't want to grow up. ”
"Say anything stupid, you'll grow up. Eventually, the chicks will leave their nests, and the young deer will not always drink their mother's milk. ”
"But father, I really don't want to grow up. ”
"I don't want you to grow up. ”
.....
Wilson sent another letter today, the result of the Enchantress's investigation.
This enchantress is very interesting, if it is a medicine that magicians have been using for a long time, then someone should have discovered its wonderful use long ago. It should have appeared in the imperial capital at an early age, why did it only become popular recently.
This has always been a point of confusion for Wayne, and the coincidence of the key moment may be the sword of Damocles behind the scenes.
Wilson sent the results of the investigation, traced all the way along the source of the goods, and directly found the city of Troy not far from the magic tower in the east. All the enchantresses in the imperial capital are bought there, and they are all bought from magicians.
But if you want to track it down, you can't get around the magic tower, and it's over.
How could a magician sell such a thing and trade it with his own hands. The Magic Tower is short of money, and it's unlikely. Could it be that Olmedo seems to make all the nobles in the imperial capital insane, so it is convenient to start. That's too unrealistic.
This enchantress was like a ghost in Wayne's heart, lingering, and with the passage of time, it took root in his heart.
Maybe it's just my own speculation, it's just a simple coincidence.
Nils also came to visit his son, somehow. My brain is always dizzy, and I know that the magician has mixed some potions to feel better. Said it was a symptom caused by an overdose of the Enchantress.
Nils also wanted to stop himself, but the hidden illness left over from the war made him suffer unbearable pain, and he had to rely on the Enchantress to relieve it.
Wayne also knew that his father was coming, and he didn't want to think about the last time he saw him, and he was still so grumpy.
Wayne spoke first.
"Father, how sure are you and the eldest prince. ”
Nils said lightly.
"Don't worry, although my brain is a little confused, the eldest prince is smart. He's got everything ready, you just have to do your job in peace. ”
Wayne frowned.
"I don't think the Four Princes will be captured, I always believe in a rule, never underestimate your enemies. ”
"Wayne, you are the next patriarch of the family, no matter what, I will ensure your safety. ”
Now that the saying goes, there's no need to discuss.
Nils spoke.
"Wayne, I hope Nils doesn't stop there. It has even more potential, and the Great Prince is very shrewd, and he will not support the Niels family forever. Wayne, if you don't do it sooner, you'll never have a chance. ”
"Father, I only wish you would say such things only in front of me. I also hope that the Niels family will stop there. But the problem now is that you are still unwilling to reveal a little bit about the eldest prince to me. I don't even know the extent of your power. ”
Nielston paused.
"Wayne, even if I tell you, what can you do? This will only increase your troubles in vain, and when the eldest prince succeeds to the throne, I will try to pave the way for you. ”
Wayne wanted to pound the table angrily, but his father didn't regard him as his own son in the end. A little bit of information is reluctant to be revealed.
Nils also said.
"Wayne, your little moves, the eldest prince already knows. But he acquiesced and didn't stop you. ”
Wayne's pupils narrowed and he looked at Nils. This sentence is much more informative.
The power of the great prince is stronger than he imagined, and the imperial capital is under his control. But Daddy seems to have a deeper meaning, and the eldest prince acquiesces. Why did you acquiesce, did the eldest prince recognize himself? Why is Dad so relieved of the eldest prince, he just said that he wants to watch out for him. What the hell is going on.
