228 I am stronger than you

Now that Klose is here, then the answer is obvious, it must be for the sake of Her Royal Highness. If from an objective point of view, this guy's strength is strong enough, what he lacks is only a ladder to climb up, if he can marry Princess Jina, then the princely family in the future of the empire is estimated to have one more Klose family.

After Prince Edward dismounted, he greeted the surrounding nobles cordially, this is where Prince Edward is clever, no matter what the status of the place, he can put on an amiable appearance, this practice has also won him the support of many nobles.

Coupled with his military background, it is a sure thing that he will basically inherit the throne as the eldest son. Such as Andorra, Harry, etc., if they want to surpass this big brother to inherit the throne, unless it is a great chance and luck against the sky, the chance is slim.

The Prince of Andorra has a chance in a sense, but his congenital disadvantage is too great, and there is still a big gap with Edward.

In addition to Prince Edward, Klose was also reluctant to follow some people around him politely, I don't know if this kid is arrogant or afraid of life, I can clearly feel that he is not used to it, and the smile on his face is also very stiff, and Prince Edward's smile is too different.

After greeting several nobles around him, Prince Edward saw Duke standing at the gate of the palace watching. He waved his hand at this time, took the initiative to walk towards Duke, and enthusiastically put his hand on Duke's shoulder and said, "Viscount Duke, it's been a while since I was in Marseille, and I didn't expect to see you here." ”

"I didn't expect His Royal Highness the Prince to return to the capital in his busy schedule, it's really fate. ”

"It's fate, come, let me introduce you, this is Klose, the deputy commander of the Fifth Legion of the Empire, who is currently serving in the Eastern Legion under my command. Seriously, as the leader of the younger generation of the Empire, I'm really curious about who is more powerful between you and Klose. ”

When Prince Edward said this, almost all the aristocratic young men standing next to him were in an uproar, where did Duke, a well-known straw bale waste, get the capital to compare with the two heroes of the empire? Prince Edward should have admitted his mistake and mistaken him for his eldest brother Baker?

Even Klose, who was behind Prince Edward, could clearly see his chest rise and fall to suppress his anger, if this passage was not what Prince Edward said, if it was someone else, Klose would have to use force, which is simply a great insult to himself!

Originally, according to Duke's thoughts, plus a little forced in his heart, he planned to be modest at this time, such as His Royal Highness the Prince, you praised or something. But the various sneering and contemptuous smiles around him, as well as the full disdain written on Klose's face, made Duke extremely unhappy.

Do you really regard yourself as the bottom one by one, and you can find some comfort in yourself if you come to it? In this case, then I am blamed for being arrogant, and people are not reckless teenagers.

So at this time, Duke smiled modestly, and then replied easily: "Maybe I'm a little better." ”

When Duke said this, it was not as simple as an uproar in the audience, almost everyone was thinking in their hearts how could this guy be so shameless, why would His Royal Highness ask such a shameless person, a straw bag who couldn't even pass the martial arts academy, and could only eat, drink and have fun in the imperial capital as the son of Duke Otto, and actually dared to say that he was a little more powerful?

Even when Duke said this, even Edward's face was a little surprised, he meant to praise politely, and by the way, he could win over Duke. After all, Duke is Duke Otto behind him, and in the battle for the throne, whoever can get the full support of Duke Otto is basically nine out of ten. It's just that Duke Otto obviously knows his own situation, and this kind of thing does not reveal his thoughts in the slightest.

In the face of so many people's attention, Klose has always been arrogant, and he can't stand being compared to a straw bag anymore, so he sneered and replied: "Hmph, your name is Duke, right, your brother doesn't dare to say this." ”

"Is my brother strong? Or maybe his Silver Moon Army is strong. I'll reply to you the same sentence, which even Baker doesn't dare to say to me, why are you?"

Hearing Duke's words, Klose only felt that Duke was arrogant to the point of madness, and he didn't even pay attention to his eldest brother Baker and the Silver Moon Army, and there was no point in worrying about this kind of madman, it would only lower his aristocratic taste.

But when Prince Edward heard it, he was shocked, because he was not like these second generations of nobles, who only kept the straw bale image of Duke in the imperial capital before, he had really seen the storm army. Although the Storm Army was small in number, he was deeply impressed by the excellent equipment and the discipline of the prohibitions, and this was definitely not a rabble lord army.

It's just that Edward didn't expect that Duke would openly despise Baker's Silver Moon Army. This reminded Edward of the previous battle report of the Battle of Andorra la Vella, which stated that Baker's Silvermoon Army and Jina's Legion fought a bloody battle with the Spartan Army, and finally succeeded in repelling the enemy with the support of the Storm Army.

At that time, some people in the court were very surprised, but everyone finally agreed that Duke might have made some progress, but the Spartan Legion must have been severely damaged by the Silvermoon Army, and the Storm Army had picked up a bargain in the past, so they would repel the Spartan Legion.

But now listening to Duke's tone, maybe this matter is not so simple, could it be that the storm army he saw at the beginning has really reached or even surpassed the strength of Baker's Silver Moon Army? If so, according to all this, it is really amazing, Prince Edward can't believe that there will be such an amazing thing in this world.

While Prince Edward was pondering, he saw a familiar figure coming over, this person was Torke, the second son of Duke Otto. If one thinks of confirming everything Duke says, then his second brother, Tok, will be the best verifier.

"Meet His Royal Highness Prince Edward. ”

After Teucer came over, the first time was to salute respectfully, the more arrogant careerists in their hearts, many times often show very humility, Teucer is this kind of person. Even for his father, Duke Otto, he has always been cautious.

"Teucer, you're here just in time, we just happened to talk about Duke's Storm Army, I don't know how it compares to Baker's Silver Moon Army. You, as their brother, should know all this, right?"

Suddenly hearing Prince Edward's question, Tork was also a little surprised, he just saw Duke talking to Prince Edward, so he just wanted to intervene. However, Teucer soon reacted, glanced at Duke meaningfully, and then replied, "Back to His Royal Highness, I think Duke's Storm Army is a little stronger. ”
