Chapter 31: The Prime Minister's Thoughts

The third meeting between the Terrela royal family and the Demon King of the North finally came to an end in a friendly atmosphere.

Although the two sides were not able to discuss key issues such as canonization, the fact that the Venn scholars apprenticed to each other has greatly narrowed the distance between them. Even if the canonization cannot be negotiated in the end, the results in front of him alone will be enough to make the Prince of Zion happy.

Back at the manor, he smiled happily.

"Congratulations to Your Highness!" said with a smile from his staff member Mazarin, "Your Highness, you just made a timely statement, which greatly improved the attitude of the Demon King and his party towards you!"

"I can already see that this demon king is a person who puts feelings ahead of interests. In other words, for him, the benefits are too small, so that he is happy and happy...... These are his greatest interests. Prince Zion smiled and said, "Such a person is powerful and dangerous, but he is not difficult to get along with. As long as we don't provoke him, get along with him well, and with the resources of a country, it is actually very easy to get along with him. ”

The staff nodded again and again: "But only a decisive person like you can make this kind of determination." If you are someone else, you may not be able to put it down, and you may not be willing to give up those interests. ”

"Interests, interests are exchanged and discarded!" said the Prince of Zion, nonchalantly, "what can be exchanged and given away is the real benefit." For a country to be stable, there is nothing that cannot be exchanged or discarded. Compared to the territory or some precious resources, it is not worth mentioning at all if it is not worth mentioning at all!"

The staff smiled and nodded, and this was what he was most satisfied with about the prince - although the prince had some problems in his personality, some gloomy and cold, he was definitely not stingy. When it comes to paying the price, it's never been a matter of procrastination.

The perfect king only exists in legends, and a person like Prince Zion can already be regarded as an excellent monarch.

In contrast, the princess Fisna, although she was strong in martial arts and very infectious, did not have such a neat attitude. She may not hesitate to stand up to the danger, but in the years of peace, it can be very difficult for her to weigh the pros and cons and make trade-offs.

Prince of Zion...... At least when it doesn't involve his own safety, he is a very calm and decisive person, who can give up various interests in time in exchange for greater benefits.

Such a person is already one of the best talents among the royal families of the world today.

In comparison, the "Lion King" of Thrace is much worse. Although the Lion King is good at finding and using talents, and is good at delegating talents to suitable places, he can't control his desires and emotions well, and often makes uncalm decisions.

In previous years, Mazarin had always been very envious of the Thracian prime minister Leopold Otto, who was originally only the second son of the family, but with his talent and the prince formed a deep friendship, and became the prime minister after the prince ascended the throne, through a series of measures to effectively consolidate the royal power, but also seized the seat of the patriarch, and became the entire Thrace under one person above the ten thousand people.

The most rare thing is that regardless of King Richard's mood, Leopold was able to successfully convince him to accept his plan.

Mazarin originally intended that the two monarchs and ministers could cooperate with each other to create a great era together, but he did not expect that man was not as good as heaven, and Leopold died because of a trivial matter before he could really make a contribution—in Mazarin's opinion, Leopold's death could be called ridiculous and ridiculous!

A dignified king, who wants to seize the wealth obtained by a small nobleman with no foundation, is actually not much of a problem - the world of aristocrats seems to be polite, but in fact, they eat people without spitting out bones, killing, seizing, and fabricating...... It happens every day. A descendant of a nobleman who was born no more than the illegitimate son of the royal family, wanted to possess such a large amount of wealth, which was originally the way to die.

But no one expected that this thing would fail, and Leopold would die because of it!

What's even more unexpected is that King Richard has caused a group of elusive and powerful aliens, and I don't know where this group of people came from, but their strength and determination are all shocking.

According to the information gathered by the Terera royal family, it is likely that the "Demon King of the North" has a close relationship with the group of Inhumans, and may even be one of the leaders of the group of Inhumans.

If it weren't for the fact that there was a group of powerful companions behind him, he really thought that with the strength of a strong man, he could force the dignified Earl of Tara Khan to bow his head and admit it, and honestly pretend to be a turtle with a shrunken head?

What are you kidding! The Tara Khan family is not a good one! The prestige of this family is also based on countless blood and corpses!

If there is only one opponent, no matter how powerful the character is, Count Tara Khan will definitely have a way to kill it - in this world, there are still a few legendary powerhouses who are willing to fight for money. If you make some concessions to the Church, you should be able to ask a few legendary priests for help. Mazarin had estimated that Count Tara Khan's best efforts should be able to come up with an ultra-luxurious lineup of about ten legendary powerhouses.

Although it would cost him a very heavy price, it was clearly worth it compared to the benefits of exterminating a demon king.

But Count Tara Khan didn't do that, what did that mean? It meant that in his opinion, it was either not worth it or he couldn't win.

The "unworthy" situation is a different matter, and the "can't win" situation has always been a heavy worry in Mazarin's heart.

Demon King of the North...... Is it so powerful, so powerful that an earl would rather accept a large part of his territory under its control than be hostile to it?

In the face of such a strong man, can they really succeed in this negotiation?

Prior to the trip, Mazarin had been worried about this. He was even more worried than the Prince of Zion, because the Prince of Zion could afford to fail, he could not afford to fail.

The Prince of Zion was not a generous lord, and if this failed, the blame would probably fall on Mazarin.

Fortunately, after contact, he found that his worries were unnecessary. The Northern Demon King is indeed powerful, and he does know many powerful people, but this Demon King is not as obedient and arrogant as he imagined, and he is not the kind of person who has eyes on the top of his head and is completely unable to speak well.

In fact, if he hadn't known the identity of the other party in advance, he couldn't even imagine that a dignified demon king would be so easy-going.

Mazarin was sorting out the materials he might need for the next meeting, and he secretly glanced at Prince Zion out of the corner of his eye. Prince Zion was happily drinking tea, but there was still a hint of darkness hidden in his smile.

This trace of shadow has never appeared in the eyes and face of the white-haired demon king.

(Perhaps...... Compared to the Prince of Zion, the demon king of the north is more suitable to be a king...... )
