Lord Thomas trembled with rage and glared at Sally fiercely.

Sally on the side finally reacted, rushed up with an arrow step, pulled up the Situ Glacier and walked outside, Anna also helped push behind, the two of them pulled and pushed one by one, trying to get the Situ Glacier away, but the Situ Glacier did not move as if it had taken root.

"Let her be here." Seeing that Situ Glacier was unwilling to go, Zhou Sen could only stand up for her. Of course, the main reason is that Zhou Sen is afraid that Situ Glacier will turn his face and hurt people, after all, he is not surprised that this woman has done anything lacking in virtue.

"Yes, yes, let her stay here." When the three messengers saw Zhou Sen talking, they hurriedly helped.

Seeing that the three envoys actually helped Zhou Sen and Situ Glacier speak, Duke Thomas felt a little wrong, but no matter what, he still had to respect the opinions of the three envoys in person.

Duke Thomas never dreamed that these three messengers had received Zhou Sen's favor, and they were the eldest Yue, Cui Wei and the third child who had been saved by Zhou Sen at the beginning.

After the three of them were rescued by Zhou Sen last time, they joined the camp of the three princesses, and with the bravery and loyalty of the three of them, the three of them soon got the respect of the three princesses, and until now, they have become the only figures in Ronnie City.

At present, the three of them have become the confidants of the third princess in Ronnie.

It is precisely for the above reasons that the three of them recommended themselves to the third princess Mao Sui to become messengers......

……

After some chaos, Zheng Changgong began to arrange for people to intervene, and the banquet hall that almost became a casino was finally on the right track.

The banquet was held almost an hour earlier.

According to Lord Thomas's previous plan, it was discussed between meeting with the three envoys, but because Sally took advantage of his meeting to stuff everyone into the banquet hall, the previous arrangement was in vain.

Now, Duke Thomas can only bite the bullet.

After some polite greetings, Yue Jiangshan and Lord Thomas sat down and talked about the future of some Ronnie stars.

Duke Thomas felt a little strange, because the three messengers were talking about Silas all the time, and they didn't get down to business.

"What is Her Royal Highness's attitude now?" Duke Thomas was a little out of breath and simply asked straight to the point.

"Her Royal Highness the Princess, let's listen to Mr. Zhou's advice." Yue Jiangshan glanced at Zhou Sen at the other table.

"Why listen to him?" Duke Thomas had a look of displeasure on his face, it was obvious that this suggestion offended him, after all, they were talking about the future of their Howard family, and they had nothing to do with Zhou Sen, and he didn't want an outsider to interfere with the future of the Howard family.

"Lord Duke, that's what Her Royal Highness the Princess said." Yue Jiangshan is neither humble nor arrogant.

"Are you sure?!" Duke Thomas's face became gloomy.

"Lord Duke, I am sure that this is what Her Royal Highness the Princess has specially explained!" The expression on Yue Jiangshan's face also became cold, and his attitude was obviously tough.

Duke Thomas fell silent for a while.

Now, Duke Thomas is beginning to doubt Zhou Sen's identity.

Does Zhou Sen have anything to do with the royal family? Or is it an undercover agent sent by the third princess?

"Lord Duke, our time is precious!" Yue Jiangshan began to exert pressure, and his tone became emotionless.

"What do you mean?" Duke Thomas held back his anger.

"Please come over Mr. Zhou."

"Are you sure?!"

"Sure!" Yue Jiangshan nodded very affirmatively.

"Good! Good! I'd love to hear what he can say! Duke Thomas laughed angrily, turned back to Zheng Changgong, who was standing not far away, and said, "Please Mr. Zhou!" ”

It's no wonder that Duke Thomas is angry, because it is ridiculous to let a low-level employee of the Meteor Mecha Company decide the future of the Howard family, and this funny scene is playing out in front of him, and he can't stop it.

Zhou Sen, who was eating and drinking with Situ Glacier, was called to the Duke Thomas's table.

Zhou Sen saluted Duke Thomas, and then sat down, from beginning to end, he was neither humble nor arrogant, and he was calm.

"Mr. Zhou, Her Royal Highness the Princess said that she wanted me to hear your opinion!" Duke Thomas didn't wait for Yue Jiangshan to speak.

"The third princess?" Zhou Sen was stunned.

"Yes." Duke Thomas was also stunned, he found that Zhou Sen was not mentally prepared, at least, he didn't know that the third duke would listen to his advice before.

"What do you mean by the third princess?" Zhou Sen's gaze fell on Yue Jiangshan's face, and he wanted to confirm it.

"Yes, Mr. Zhou, Her Royal Highness the princess specially explained." Yue Jiangshan leaned over slightly, but his leaning action made Duke Thomas's heart move, because he felt Yue Jiangshan's respect for Zhou Sen, which was a kind of respect from the heart.

"Hey, Your Highness the Princess, this is trapping me in injustice!" Zhou Sen let out a long sigh.

"What do you mean by that?" Yue Jiangshan was stunned.

"What you are talking about now is the cooperation between the third princess and the Howard family, and I am just a small employee of the Howard family's company, and the third princess asked me to give direct advice, where to put the dignity of the Howard family? Where is the face of the Duke? Three princesses, three princesses! You hurt people a lot, you hurt people a lot! Zhou Sen smiled bitterly, he finally found a quiet place to practice, and was so troubled by the third princess, it seems that this place can't stay anymore.

"Ah...... Mr. Zhou, I'm sorry...... Otherwise, contact Her Royal Highness the princess now......" Yue Jiangshan hurriedly said.

"Forget it, the Duke has already made a gap, and it's too late to remedy it." Zhou Sen glanced at Duke Thomas lightly.

"......" Duke Thomas found that Zhou Sen's faint gaze was full of penetrating power, as if he had seen through his internal organs.

"Mr. Zhou......" Yue Jiangshan asked after a moment's hesitation.

"Lord Duke, it's okay if you have any questions, if I guess correctly, the third princess shouldn't embarrass you." Zhou Sen said lightly.

"Why?" Duke Thomas asked.

"Since the third princess asked you to ask for my opinion, it means that she has given up control of the Howard family."

"Ah...... Are you sure? Duke Thomas's eyes lit up and he hurriedly asked.

"I'm sure, but ......"

"But what?"

"However, the future of the Howard family is still full of uncertainty, and the fact that the third princess gave up control of the Howard family does not mean that she will let the Howard family get out of control." Zhou Sen's deep eyes flashed with wisdom.

"I want to hear about it!" Duke Thomas's expression became solemn.

"I don't think that either the Ronnie Empire, which exists in name only, or the isolated Third Princess, will not have the luxury of being able to control the giant family of Howard, because there is too much uncertainty, it is not good to rely on you, it is not good to alienate you, and it is afraid of causing a backlash to control you. If you are close, you are not inferior, and if you are far away, you will be resentful! In short, the stakes are high. According to the normal development, after the Howard family has experienced this twist and turn, it will rapidly develop its own military strength, which is the general trend, no one can change it, and the third princess cannot change it, and with the financial resources and military potential of the Howard family, it can establish a military force that any force is afraid of in a very short time. In this case, it is possible for the third princess to approach you rashly...... Hehe...... I guess the Duke understands. Zhou Sen smiled and said meaningfully.

Duke Thomas took a deep look at Zhou Sen and fell into a long silence.

This man is such a thoughtful thinker!

Before, no one knew what Duke Thomas thought, in fact, his decision to submit to the third princess was only temporary, in fact, the eight elders of the Howard family were far less thoughtful than him.

Duke Thomas's real purpose is to eat the military power of the third princess, and in his bones, he doesn't take the third princess to heart.

Now, Duke Thomas felt that all his thoughts were exposed to Zhou Sen, as if he was not dressed.

"Lord Duke, before, I was talking about the situation faced by the third princess, do you want to hear about the situation of the Howard family?" Zhou Sen smiled.

"Yes!" Duke Thomas blurted out.

"Don't cling to anyone! Don't try to be emperor! Set yourself a task that you can't do! Zhou Sen said word by word.

"Please make it clear!"

"The history of the Howard family is longer than the history of the human interstellar federal government, which can be traced back to the ancient earth era, even the history of the Meteor Mecha Company is more than eight hundred years, such a deep-rooted family with strong financial resources and countless high-tech masters, attached to any force, has the strength to replace it, so when someone tries to get close to the Howard family, they are more likely to covet the wealth of the Howard family, and once they have the opportunity, they will not hesitate to uproot the Howard family......"

"Please continue!"

"So, don't be attached to any force, just do your business! As for being the emperor, hehe, this is simple, although the Howard family owns the Meteor Mecha Company, but in the power ranking of the five star domains, it is difficult to enter a thousand, after all, in addition to the mecha company, there are many family giants in many fields that can crush the Howard family, such as the optoelectronic field, the biological field, the engine field, the starship manufacturing field, the large equipment manufacturing field, and the energy field...... There are countless giants in various fields, and if the Howard family is the emperor, then it means that you will face giants in all fields, because you were originally business partners or competitors, and now, you are the emperor, what do people think? It is foreseeable that they will stumble on the Howard family, both openly and secretly. Lord Duke, do you think the Howard family will be able to stand out under the siege of hundreds or thousands of giant families? Of course, I know that you will not be willing, and neither will the members of the Howard family, but this is not a question of willingness, but a matter of strength. Lord Duke, may I ask, do you have confidence in the strength of the Howard family? Answer head-to-head! ”

"Have faith!" Duke Thomas looked determined.

"That's right, this is the problem of the Howard family, I believe that the Howard family has confidence in themselves, because, your real strength has not exploded, but have you thought about a question, why is the Howard family declining? Why is Meteor Mecha getting worse and worse? Of course, Lord Duke will not admit it, but this is the truth, you must admit that the Meteor Mecha Company is the main business of the Howard family, and Lord Duke has been in control of the Meteor Mecha Company for more than 30 years, and in the development of more than 30 years, the Meteor Mecha Company is not better, but worse and worse, which is enough to show that the Duke does not have enough ability to make the Howard family rise. Zhou Sen stopped and looked at Zhou Sen with a playful expression.

"Go on!" Duke Thomas's face was iron-blue, and Zhou Sen's words made him feel like a man.

"Lord Duke, don't take chances, if you have been able to lead the Meteor Mecha Company to rise in the past thirty years, then I may support your idea of competing in the five star fields, but you don't, so, you are still dead hearted, don't wade into troubled waters easily. Forward, no return; Stand back, the willows are bright! The rise and fall of the Howard family is all in your thoughts! Zhou Sen said earnestly.

"Since Mr. Zhou thinks I'm incapable, how can I be sure that retreating will make the Howard family prosperous?" Duke Thomas asked with a gloomy face.

"Hehe, Lord Duke, you may have misunderstood my words, I don't dare to guarantee that your family will prosper after retreating, I just tell you that being the emperor will definitely be a catastrophe, but it is difficult to say if you retreat, but, from my personal point of view, it is not a problem for the Howard family to continue to prosper."

"Why?"

"Although the Howard family is not very good now, it is a camel, as the so-called emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, not to mention that the Howard family has not died of emaciation, no matter who it is, it is difficult to swallow the Howard family, even if it is swallowed, it is worth the loss, so as long as the Howard family takes a firm stance and does not get involved in the power struggle head-on, no one will be stupid enough to start a full-scale war with the Howard family. After taking a firm stance, some forces are cooperating with the Howard family, so the Howard family can get huge business opportunities......"

"Thank you! So what does it mean to set a task that you can't accomplish yourself? ”

"If you are a human being, you must have a pursuit, the Howard family has been standing for less than a thousand years, and you must set some lofty goals for yourself, for example, you choose to be loyal to the human interstellar federal government in a high-profile manner, and you say it in your mouth, but you don't do it, then, in the eyes of others, the Howard family is harmless to humans and animals......"

"Wait, what if the forces that want to restore the human interstellar federal government come to us?" Duke Thomas said.

"This requires the great wisdom of the Howard family to solve it. Actually, it's also very easy to solve, just sponsor a little mecha. Zhou Sen shrugged.

"Okay. Excuse me, ...... with Her Royal Highness Princess."

"It's not enough to sponsor a little mecha, what the third princess lacks now is a mecha, and you, some are mechas! Give more, won't everyone be happy! ”

“……”

"Lord Duke, although you are a duke, you are a businessman, not a politician, everything is solved in the way of business, in short, whoever finds you trouble will sponsor a mecha, which is guaranteed to be a panacea. Of course, you need to weigh up the amount of sponsorship, and I don't need to teach you this. ”

"I have one last question......" Duke Thomas stared at Zhou Sen with deep eyes.

"No need to ask, I am!" Zhou Sen smiled.

"I don't really want you to be." Duke Thomas had a look of disappointment on his face.

"If I weren't, you wouldn't be able to control someone like me. Lord Duke! Zhou Sen said word by word.

"Yes." Duke Thomas had a look of loneliness on his face.

"Lord Duke, there are many offensive words, please bear with me!" Zhou Sen gave up.

"Good words! Is Mr. Zhou leaving? Duke Thomas sighed.

"The third princess forced me to go, and I had to go."

"Ah...... Her Royal Highness the Princess forced you to leave? Duke Thomas was stunned.

"The third princess asked me to give you advice, isn't it just to let me reveal my identity? Revealing my identity, what am I doing here? Zhou Sen asked rhetorically.

"Sir's mind is really leaky, worthy of ...... Pity...... It's a pity ......"

"Don't be a pity, the coming day is long, Lord Duke, remember, you owe someone Zhou a big favor, one day, I will return this favor!" Zhou Sen laughed.

"I don't dare to say that I will go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire, but as long as Mr. can use the place of our Howard family, we will definitely do our best to satisfy Mr."

"Good, good! It's enough to have the words of the Duke! I have to go. ”

Zhou Sen stood up and laughed.

Zhou Sen's laughter alarmed the people around him, and they all looked over, but they happened to see Duke Thomas standing up to salute Zhou Sen, and several messengers also stood up and looked at Zhou Sen, their eyes full of awe.
