Chapter Seventy-Two: The Spirit of a King

Theresia said lightly: "You are the prince of the empire, and it is very likely that you will become the emperor of the empire in the future, what about Situ Jin? At most, he can only be regarded as a noble child, for such a person who is completely unequal to your identity, you actually respect him so much, you see how there is a trace of kingly air in your body?"

"Heh!" Ferdinand chuckled lightly and said in a low voice: "What is the spirit of a king? Is it true that you can only see yourself in your eyes and ignore everyone else?"

"No! that's not indifference!" said Theresia, "that's the pride and self-confidence that belongs to our royal family!"

"Hmph!" Ferdinand sneered, clearly disagreeing with Theresia's words.

"Brother Emperor!" Theresia spoke again, her tone still indifferent: "Don't be idealistic anymore, a person who wants to be an emperor should never be like you." ”

Ferdinand looked at Theresia: "If I had a choice, I wouldn't want to be this emperor. ”

"Can you still say such childish words?" Theresia finally set her eyes on Ferdinand: "Even if you don't want to be emperor, do you think our eldest brother Robert will let you go?"

Seeing that Ferdinand didn't speak, Theresia said again: "You should know very well why I want to marry someone I don't like, if you can really take charge of it alone, I don't have to take such pains!"

"I'm sorry, Imperial Sister!" Ferdinand apologized as if realizing that he had just said the wrong thing.

Retracting her gaze at Ferdinand, Theresia said calmly, "Do you know why I agreed to let you come to the barracks with you to watch the exercises?"

Ferdinand looked at Theresia and said to himself, "Didn't you come with me because I urged you?"

As if seeing through Ferdinand's thoughts, Theresia smiled and said, "You are really naΓ―ve! Brother Huang, he is already more popular than you in the army, and there is the Situ family, a powerful person in the army, behind him, who supports him, just these two points You are already very unadvantageous, at this time, if you don't show your face in the army again, I'm afraid everyone will not remember the empire and you, His Royal Highness the Second Prince!"

"I see, that's why you're coming with me. The corners of Ferdinand's mouth pulled out a lonely smile: "For my business, you really take great pains to do it, Imperial Sister!"

Sensing Ferdinand's depressed mood, Theresia sighed slightly: "I don't want to be so tired, but from the moment we were born, many things have been predestined, and you and I don't have too many choices!"

"Don't you have many options?!" Ferdinand smiled self-deprecatingly, "It seems that this is really the case!"

After saying this, both of them fell into deep thought and did not speak again.

"Your Highness Princess!" Suddenly, a discordant voice interrupted Ferdinand and Theresia's musings, and they turned their faces sideways to see Charles in military uniform walking briskly towards him.

Seeing Charles, Theresia's expression did not fluctuate unusually, she stopped, and the big men in the army who followed her also stopped.

Charles finally walked in front of Theresia, he first smiled at Theresia, and then said, "Your Royal Highness Princess, thank you and Her Royal Highness the Second Prince for coming to Beiying today to watch our military exercises this season. ”

"This officer!" Before Tricia could speak, Ferdinand, who was standing beside her, had already spoken: "Your army commander and division commander have already thanked me and my imperial sister for coming!"

The meaning of Ferdinand's words is obvious, even if you want to express gratitude, you have nothing to do, you are not qualified!

Charles's gaze shifted from Theresia's face to Ferdinand, for a moment, he felt as if he had seen the face in front of him somewhere, but for a while he couldn't remember, it can't be said that Charles's memory is too poor, it's really Ferdinand's identity conversion is too exaggerated, no one can associate an army soldier with His Royal Highness the Imperial Prince, and when Ferdinand saw Charles as Warren before, the two were not considered to have met in person, at most they could only be regarded as one-sided.

Speaking of which, although Charles has studied with Theresia since he was a child, except for having a relationship with Ferdinand in the 13th camp before, he has really never seen this second prince of the empire. The palace is very large, and each prince and princess has their own independent palace, and generally everyone will not shuttle often when there is nothing to do, and Charles can only enter the palace during the time of study, so it is not surprising that he has not seen Ferdinand.

"I'm sorry, Your Royal Highness the Second Prince!" Charles bowed slightly and said, "It's me who is too presumptuous!"

At this time, Rogil, the commander of the North Battalion Division, who had been walking side by side with Chaplin, stepped forward, he had heard the conversation between Charles and Ferdinand just now, naturally, he could hear it, and Chaplin standing next to him would not hear it, the old guy knew that Charles was Chaplin's son, and seeing that Chaplin didn't say a word, Rogier chose to take the initiative to stand up and help Charles break the siege.

"Haha!" Rogier laughed twice, and then walked over to a few people: "Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, let me introduce you, this is the son of General Chaplin, and also a rising star in our imperial army - Your Excellency Charles!"

The division commanders of the North Battalion are all out of the horse, even if Ferdinand hates Charles, he can't show it too obviously at this time, otherwise he won't give face to the old man in front of him, Ferdinand smiled, nodded at Charles, and said, "I see!"

"Your Royal Highness the Second Prince!" Rogier continued to praise Charles, "Charles is a perfect successor to General Chaplin's military talent, this kid is not only born with quick thinking, brave and good at fighting, but also low-key and rigorous, I think he will definitely be able to make great contributions to the empire in the future!"

Hearing Rogil's words, although Charles's face was calm, his heart was already happy. In fact, since he was a child, Charles has received no less compliments and compliments, but never once has he felt so happy, not for anything else, just because his goddess Theresia was present when others praised him so hard. If there's one thing Charles fears the most right now, it's that Theresia will look down on him, and when he doesn't know how to prove himself to Theresia, Rogier does him a big favor.

After Rogier finished speaking, Ferdinand smiled slightly: "In this way, Charles is really a rare talent in our Yarrow Empire!"

Rogier nodded, and was about to speak, when Ferdinand suddenly asked, "Charles, I wonder what your position in the army is?"

Charles paused for a moment, not knowing why Ferdinand asked this, but he still replied politely: "Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, my position in the army is the joint commander of the first joint battalion of the North Battalion. ”

Ferdinand nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "Since you are so powerful, presumably the final winner of this military exercise in the North Battalion must be the first joint venture under your leadership!"

As soon as Ferdinand said this, Charles's face immediately stiffened.
