"No!", Duke Luke retorted firmly: "No matter how unpredictable Your Majesty is, after all, he still has to choose an heir for this country and the royal family, who can he choose besides you and the second prince?"

"yes. The third prince, who was originally full of seriousness, seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and said, "You can still see it thoroughly." ”

"In any case, my father could not sit on that throne forever. ”

"For human beings, the word forever has no meaning, just like the rhetoric of a man to coax a woman, just a beautiful bubble. ”

"Your Majesty, he is also a man, not a god. He will also grow old and eventually die in his bed. ”

This is a fate that cannot be avoided by all, even if he is the king who shepherds all the people and rules the kingdom. ”

"In this respect, he is no different from us and the refugees below. Duke Luke bent down slightly, and as he spoke, he apologized to the third prince, and his words were indeed a bit disrespectful.

The third prince waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care. "That's why you chose me without hesitation, isn't it?", he walked over to the bed with his hands in his hands, and looked down at the square.

"Yes, if I say any more loyal flattery here, it would be too much to underestimate Your Highness. Duke Luke smiled. Said very indifferently.

"People will eventually die, Your Majesty, and I will be no exception. It's just that when people get old, the more they are dying, the more unwilling they are, and the more they want to leave something good in this world as evidence. Proof that I have lived in this world, proof ...... Or I hope that future generations will still remember me and miss me. ”

"I don't have that much ability to make the whole world remember me. I can only make the Luke family grow and grow as much as possible, and exist in this world for a longer time, so that my younger generations who are not successful can remember me for a longer time. ”

"That's why I have so much confidence in the emperor's behavior prediction, Your Majesty has more than me, and naturally wants to leave more behind, he won't remain so obscure forever. ”

"It's not easy to hear your words from the truth, old man. The third prince turned around with a smile and faced Duke Luke.

"But why don't you go to the Holy Religion? As far as I know, many nobles will follow the Holy Religion when they are old. After all, the legends of heaven and hell are still very attractive to them. ”

"Haha, Your Majesty, you're really joking. Duke Luke laughed twice. He took two steps forward, also to the bedside, pointed to the square under the window, and said, "If the descendants of the Luke family have become untouchables like this, even if one or two still remember me, what is the use?"

"Since the Hero King established this kingdom, there have been very few surviving families. Those famous and unstoppable families in the history books were finally wiped out, which can only make people guess between the lines how glorious this surname once was. ”

"These families are like this, let alone these untouchables. In a day, how many names in this Holy Radiance City will disappear without anyone knowing. The old man looked at the crowd in the square and said with emotion.

"As for hell and heaven you just mentioned. I still have self-knowledge, although I am not a heinous bad person in this life, it is by no means a good person who is merciful. Naturally, I can't go up to the Heavenly Mountain, but if I want to go to hell and suffer, why should I believe in such legends?"

"If you think about the dead after you die, don't let the living bother you. ”

"Haha, you're really open-minded. The third prince laughed, "If you think about the dead after you die, don't let the living bother you." If the nobles of this kingdom had your wisdom, the country would not have come to such a crumbling state. ”

The third prince walked back into the house, took two wine glasses, poured them himself, and handed one of them to Duke Luke.

"Your Highness, this is not a good thing, the old man is really flattered. Duke Luke took it himself.

"Where, that's as it should be. Cheers to your open-mindedness and wisdom, and to the living. The third prince smiled and raised his glass, and then drank the glass of wine.

Because he had been overthinking in the past few days, his slightly pale face was slightly flushed under the stimulation of alcohol.

"It is precisely because of this that I am afraid that my father will take some radical measures. He rubbed the glass in his hand and said thoughtfully.

"Are you saying that His Majesty is afraid that his time is running out, so he will resort to such a method, and he wants to dismantle the Holy Religion once and for all?" asked Duke Luke.

"Isn't it? Why else would he have come up with such an idea? Why did he insist on holding a court despite the opposition of the Holy Sect? And why did he care so much about it?"

"This series of actions of his is really too strange, and it is very different from his usual attitude of believing in gods. I even suspect that the escape from the Inquisition was also planned by him, otherwise what other force in this Holy Radiance City has the ability to steal people from the airtight Inquisition?", replied the Third Prince.

"If that's the case, then I'll congratulate Your Highness in advance. It seems that His Majesty has chosen you as the new king of the Kingdom of St. Teresa, which is really gratifying, gratifying. Duke Luke saluted the third prince.

"Oh, then why can't it be that my father chose the second brother? After all, I have a close relationship with the nobles, which is recognized by Shenghui City. If he chooses the second brother, wouldn't it be more in the interests of the royal family?", the third prince asked curiously.

However, it is also known that the second prince took refuge in the Holy Church, and he recognized the Pope as his godfather. If the Holy Sect loses power, how will he deal with himself? If he rescues the Holy Sect, what is the significance of the Great Emperor's attack on the Holy Sect? If he betrays the Holy Sect, won't he be wolf-hearted and ungrateful? How will the people of the world view him?

"In any case, his reputation will inevitably plummet, and his strength will be greatly lost, and His Majesty will not choose such a prince as the prince. Even if His Majesty puts him on the throne, will he be able to secure this position?"

"Your Majesty will never fail to consider this, and looking through the history books, there has never been such a prince in history. ”

"I think it's His Royal Highness the Second Prince who has a headache now, right?" said Duke Luke, pointing to the wall on the left, with a smile.
