Spring came, the snow melted, and the snake woke up from hibernation with its vertical pupils open and crawled out of its dark burrow.

The serpent looked up at the sky, longing for the vastness and eternity of the sky.

Legend has it that the last time a snake molts, its scales grow into feathers and give birth to white wings that fly into the sky.

"Quetzalcoatl. ”

Claude muttered the name countless times, and in his hand he held a book of alien myths and tales.

"What a beautiful story. ”

The earth on the ground was too wet and muddy, so the serpent longed for the sky, "and if it could spread its wings in the sky, it seemed that it could make up for it." Claude muttered to himself as he looked at his lameness.

It's just that if the snake wants to molt, it needs an opportunity.

"What do you think of His Highness Claude?" Sebas asked.

"Claude? He's an interesting man, perhaps because of his rough life, and his personality is very crazy and paranoid, and he seems to be the kind of person who will go out of his way to accomplish his goals. ”

"Looks like you. ”

"What are you kidding, Sebas, the reason I usurped power is because I have all the fame, beauty, and money on that basis, and if I die for it, I might as well go back and be an obscure country lord. ”

Julian is a liberal hedonist who has to give more in order to be more happy.

"Are you going to work with him?"

"Although Claude sometimes strikes me as creepy and spooky, I generally have a good time with him, horse racing, gambling, fishing, and drinking. As for cooperation, he doesn't have any chips on him that can make my heart flutter.

And the risk is too great, he wants the throne, but he himself has nothing but the title of a second in line to the throne, such a person is not qualified to be at the table. ”

Julian smirked.

"It's a shame, but if His Highness Claude shows his worth, you'll consider working with him?"

"Perhaps. But Sebas, when did you become Claude's lobbyist?"

Sebas smiled slightly, "It's just the devil's nature to crave chaos, you're too worried. ”

In the event of a succession dispute over the royal family, the brilliant intrigues and fratricidal intrigues of the undercurrents are nothing short of a grand feast for Sebas.

Father and son are separated, siblings are murderous, and the slightest reverie makes Sebas's soul tremble with joy.

Penny trembled with fear, and as Julian's palm pressed against her skin, she felt the coldness that penetrated deep into her bone marrow.

She hung her head, like a soulless doll at Julian's mercy, she didn't dare to make a sound, and she even wanted to cover her ears if she could.

When she heard Julian and Sebas's contempt and ridicule of the royal family so lightly, her soul was grieving, the royal power was divinely granted, the royal family was an unattainable divine existence for the common people, and Julian's gestures of contempt were too arrogant, rampant and evil.

"Since you don't choose His Royal Highness Claude, then you can visit Prince Baunder Baird when you have time, after all, your current situation is also very delicate, and it will naturally be of great benefit if you can get the support of the royal family. ”

"You're right, interests are interests, emotions are emotions, then I'll go and visit Prince Baird. ”

"I've already booked an appointment for you to meet next week, and Prince Baird is very pleased to have you visit. ”

"Sebas, you're such a capable fellow. ”

Julian praised that as long as Sebas was around, everything seemed to have a soul and was handled in an orderly manner.

As Julian got ready, Penny had already taken her coat and hat, and it seemed that her teaching had been effective.

Before leaving, Julian hooked Penny's chin and smiled, "I'm looking forward to it." ”

Julian hired a teacher for Penny, a woman who was a famous prostitute in the imperial capital in her youth, and she may not be the prettiest one, but she must be the most skillful, and it is said that the emperor was her guest at the scene.

After she lived a reclusive life in old age, Julian invited her out and asked her to teach Penny how to please men.

That woman's skills are indeed superb!
