"What about the rebels? Can you win an army of forty or fifty thousand?"

"Cut the land and pay compensation, let Boni go back, the central government has the final say, if he doesn't want to, we will defend to the death, see who can survive, there is no food to eat, I will kill people to reduce consumption, good or bad for a year or two, and if you don't talk to me, I will sack the royal capital and leave a broken city for him." As for the Norman provinces, let them be self-governing, and they were sparsely populated, and had to deal with pirates, and provided less than half of the tax revenue of the treasury every year. ”

"This is tantamount to dividing the kingdom into three parts!" Rau Circuit.

"Big brother, you don't see it clearly to me this time, what if it's divided into five departments? It's someone else's place, you have served as the intelligence chief for seven years, and I have been the head of the royal capital for five years, Your Majesty is suspicious, the fief of the two of us is no bigger than a city, and the people are not more than 10,000, and it is divided into six places, the dogs are staggered, and the friction with other lords is constant, and the maintenance fee to be paid every year makes our family wealth not grow, even if we only dominate central Gaul, it is a hundred times larger than your and my fiefdom, a thousand times, this account can be worth it. ”

"But Lewu succeeded to the throne and could not convince the people, he was neither the eldest son, nor did he have merit. ”

"The fist is everything, the sword is the rule, after we master the central government, who dares to disobey, and then immediately crowned Lewu, even if the other ministers are dissatisfied, they are powerless to return to the sky. ”

"We ...... It's better to find the second prince first and probe his tone, in case he is afraid, this matter is not easy to do. Raussey was insincere, and he was also very moved by Guillaume's proposal.

"If he doesn't do it, he will put the youngest Asunlu on the throne, and the "Qu Chenshi" of Aragon, who is in his twenties, is the palace minister, and so can our two brothers. ”

"Then what will happen to our mother-killing feud with Asunlu?" Rau Circuit.

"Simple, after three or five years, when we have a firm foothold, Asunlu can die early due to illness, and even the Kelu family will be eliminated at that time. ”

Asunlu's mother, Huda, is the niece of Boni's cousin, belongs to the Kelu family, once when she entered the palace, she was forcibly occupied by Adrian, and then conceived Asunlu, and later Huda wanted to break up and combine with a young nobleman, and Adrian, who was very possessive, did not allow anyone to cuckold him, so he sent Raul to poison Huda.

Huda's father, sensing that something was wrong, gave up his title in the royal capital, returned to his fiefdom in the north, said that he was ill and could not come to the royal capital, and colluded with Harold to fight against Adrian, and also sent someone to assassinate Raul, so that his carriage fell off the cliff, and he was lucky not to die, but he could no longer raise his interest in women, and Adrian did not embarrass Asunlu, and loved this young son very much.

.

"You've become so much!" Lausai suddenly got to know this younger brother.

"You said that I should read more books and learn more from books. ”

"What book?"

"The Legend of the Minister. ”

The world is unpredictable, if it was a few months ago, no one dared to think like this, Adrian was a giant, and for twenty years, he dominated the "life and death" and "light and darkness" of the royal capital.

But a big defeat made Adrian mentally discouraged, and he seemed to be not far from death, and lost most of his loyal subordinates, so that Guillaume saw the opportunity, and the king was no longer "terrible", but "deceivable".

......

......

Adrian had decreed that the prince, who had reached the age of twelve, could not live in the palace permanently, so as not to have an affair with the palace maid (and his mistress) and give birth to illegitimate children, so in addition to the fourth prince Asunlu, the three elder brothers all had a mansion outside the court.

The next day, the two brothers came to the second prince's mansion and met Lewu, who was feeding the chicks in the garden.

The garden is a bird farm, from small to large, with a variety of birds such as white finch, turtle dove, toucan, parrot and even owls.

The birds chirped and chirped when they saw their acquaintances coming, and the two brothers had visited more than thirty times over the past few months, and were the only visitors.

"You're here. ”

Lewu put down the chick and got up to greet him. He was born only eight days apart from the eldest prince Kunke, and when he was born, his left leg was twisted, so he had to walk with a cane or be supported by someone, and Adrian did not let Lewu show up with his siblings except for major celebrations, so as not to lose his face.

In the long run, Lewu has a sensitive and introverted personality.

"I'm not going to give birth to this kind of remnant. One year, Adrian was in a bad mood, and when he got drunk, he saw Lewu who was practicing with a cane and slapped him, and after that day, the two fathers and sons were almost strangers, and occasionally the servants of his mansion could still hear Lewu's dissatisfaction, but they did not dare to spread it.

"What kind of bird is this, so ugly? There is no place to see it when it is bare. Guillaume said.

"This is a tiger eagle, the beak will turn from gray to yellow in the future, you don't look at such a small one, feed it for another month or two, ordinary cats and dogs are not opponents, the young bird period is very fierce, dare to peck several times larger than their own animals, even the wolf hunts during the adult bird period, one paw down, through the bones to see the blood, but this bird generally haunts the British Peninsula, we Gaul only spend the winter to the south, can see, in a word, is the king of the sky. ”

After Laussey finished speaking, Lewu smiled and said, "I recommended your book last time, you really read it! ”

"As a courtier, it is natural to understand the interests of the lord. Raussey continued, "This bird holds a grudge and can't be beaten or scolded, otherwise..."

"Slow, you're wrong this time, the whole book says that you can't beat and scold, but after my research, it's okay, but you have to sleep with it, this bird will treat people as if they were relatives, and when they are half old, they don't need cooked meat, they all use raw meat, their bones and feathers will be strong and shiny, and their claws will be lengthened, at this time, there is really no bird in the air that can fight with it, except for the cloud dragon ....... ”

"Smack. ”

After listening to the explanation, Lawsey applauded his hands, "This method of raising birds is really incisive. Then he added, "Cloud dragons are already very rare, right?"

"A birdseller recently told me that there are many ...... on the Danish land. After a few more words of ornithology, Lewu said to the servant, "Prepare some snacks, and I will have a chat with the two adults." ”

Surrounded by a flock of birds, and even running around to at his feet, shoulders and even on the top of his head, Guillaume wanted to slap them to death.

And Laussey can understand Lewu's thoughts very well, people always despise what they have and pursue what they can't get. Birds can soar through the clouds and overlook all living beings, which is a point that the crippled Lewu will never reach, so Lewu puts his emotions into these birds, watching them grow stronger and stronger, and gets comfort and satisfaction.

After drinking the first cup of black tea, Laussey gave Lewu a look and told him to call all the servants away, leaving only three mouths and six ears.

"Second Prince, have you ever thought about standing up?" Rau Circuit.

"I thought about it day and night, but the court physicians said my leg was not healed. ”

"There are many ways to stand up, such as when we brothers kneel to you and you sit and salute, which is also a form of standing up. ”

There was something in Laussy's words, and Lewu could hear it, although he was not welcomed, as a prince, he had learned everything except for physical courses.

"My eldest brother can afford such a heavy gift from two adults. Lewu gently took it.

"Second Prince, you must hear my next words clearly, and you can't tell anyone. "Raussey is ready to tell a secret.

Le Wu was a little strange, what happened to these two people, during this time, although he had a lot of contacts with the two brothers, they were all in private and did not let anyone know, so as not to be suspicious. Looking at Laussy's expression, Lewu nodded slowly in confusion.

"The heirs of the royal family, there are currently four sons and two women, each prince and princess is not the same mother, the most noble is the eldest princess Ivanka (the first princess) and the eldest prince Kunke, and the eldest prince was born to the second princess, and it stands to reason that he is a well-deserved heir. But have you ever thought that you are not favored by Your Majesty because of your illness and because of your mother's infirmity during childbirth, she died?"

"Go on. ”

And why is the eldest prince not favored, because his mother once went berserk and injured His Majesty, and finally went mad and committed suicide? These are all reasonable, but not the most correct answers. ”

"Yes...... What?" Lewu also thought about this question.

"Do you think Your Majesty is like the Great Prince?" After Laussey finished speaking, Lewu's face became abnormal.

"The eldest brother's mansion is full of portraits, and he resembles his biological mother, Princess Hailan...... It's not like my father!"

"Not only that, but he is like a man, the Count, the brother of the princess. Fifteen years ago, when the eldest prince was a year old, Count Corot died, and both had a red birthmark on their backs. ”

Le Wu sorted out the information that Raussey wanted to convey in his mind, and said nervously, "You mean the forbidden love between brother and sister?!"
