Chapter 865: Changes (I)
Time slightly pushed forward before the kingdom of Eske, the royal capital.
"What? The Coalition of Nations has perished......? Are you sure? At the dock, a man who looked like a butler was looking at each other with surprise on his face, and he said again and again.
This news was so explosive that it made his head buzz and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
"My lord, please rest assured, the source of this news is absolutely reliable, and the news is coming from the battlefield ahead!" The one who spoke was a captain, he looked at no one on the left and right, and continued to lower his voice and said: "My lord, we haven't gotten more definite news about the life and death of that one for the time being, but it is estimated that the evil is more auspicious, and I have to ask the lord to report it to the top quickly, so that the people above can prepare early." ”
"I have my own measure in this matter. It was not easy to wake up from the shock, the butler nodded, he secretly figured out to himself, if this matter was true, then he, as the person who got the news and reported it, would definitely be valued by the person above.
Receiving a reward is a sure thing.
Thinking of this, he was very satisfied and said to the person in front of him: "Mark, you have done a good job in this matter, I will have people double your salary, and your position will also change in the near future." But...... The premise of all this must be that your news is true and reliable, do you understand?" "I understand, I understand, thank you for your promotion!" Hearing the butler's words, the middle-aged man named Mark immediately showed an extremely happy expression and hurriedly said. "Okay, you're going to get busy with you, remember, don't mention this matter to anyone again, you know?" Turning to leave, the butler was not at ease, and reminded again. "Rest assured, I will keep my mouth shut until this news is heard. Captain Mark hurriedly reassured. When the butler heard this, he was relieved.
Immediately after separating from Captain Mark, the butler rode in a carriage to the area where the palace was located. However, he did not enter the palace, but went directly to the mansion of the eldest prince. Since Prince Xiu Senya was designated as the crown prince, the eldest prince and the third prince have moved out of the palace.
The royal family had a manor house for each of them, and there was also a villa in the royal capital, and they all now lived in their own villas.
At this moment, the eldest prince was in the small garden of his villa, drinking sullen wine.
In front of him was a table with wine and food, and in front of him, there were several beautiful dancers, who were constantly writhing to the sound of the music.
But the eldest prince's mood at this time was too bad, and such a fragrant scene could no longer make him feel happy. "Okay, what are you dancing, it's a mess, don't force it!" Shaking the wine glass a few times, the eldest prince raised his head sharply and raised his voice and said scoldingly. These dancers were taken aback, and when they saw the eldest prince's unhappy face, they hurriedly and cautiously retreated.
"Your Highness, don't drink anymore, your body is ......," the eldest prince's wife, who came over at this time, said softly.
In front of his wife, the eldest prince did not insult him, but said directly: "I'm not in a good mood now, you can go your own way, leave me alone." ”
Seeing that his attitude was very resolute, his wife had no choice but to walk away.
"Father, father, you are too partial! I am your eldest son! Why should you hold the kingdom and hand it over to Xiu Senya!"
He sighed under his breath as he drank his wine.
In fact, he also understands in his heart that in terms of talent, his own tongue is indeed inferior to his younger brother.
But in his heart, he was still not convinced.
After all, as a prince, he has never been too derelict in his duties, his own line and every word, compared with the crown princes of other kingdoms, will not be too bad, if it is not for the presence of his younger brother Prince Xiu Senya, constantly setting off his failure, in fact, he became the crown prince of the Eske Kingdom, it is a matter of course! However, the appointment of a crown prince is not just about meritocracy. "Your Highness, Your Highness......" A call called the eldest prince back from his resentment. "What's the matter?" the eldest prince asked, looking up slightly drunk. "Steward Jie asked to see you, saying that there is an urgent matter to report to you. The squire replied cautiously. "What's the hurry?" the eldest prince put down the wine glass in his hand and smiled self-deprecatingly: "What else can I do now?" "That'...... Then I'll get back to him and tell him to leave immediately. The squire said, "Be it." "Wait, who told you to do that to him? Let him in, I'll hear what he's in a hurry. Prince Liuding laughed and said. “...... Be. The attendant hurriedly answered. After a while, a middle-aged housekeeper was brought in.
"Just Jie?" the eldest prince glanced at him drunkenly, and recognized that the person in front of him was indeed a butler under him before, so he asked="I heard that you have something urgent to find me?" ,...'Yes, Your Highness. The middle-aged butler hurriedly saluted and replied. "Well, then you can say it here!" said the eldest prince, still drinking, very disapprovingly.
He didn't think that this butler would have anything urgent to tell him, some time ago, every time he received news, it was only bad for him. "Your Highness, this ...... Look, do you want him to shoot -......" The butler looked at the attendants on the left and right, a little hesitant. "Alright, all of you should retreat to a farther place first!" the eldest prince made some impatient gestures to let the others retreat. Then, he looked at the person in front of him: "Okay, now you should say it, right?"
"Yes, Your Highness, my subordinates will tell you a piece of news that they have gotten......" So, the middle-aged butler told the eldest prince the news he had received about the destruction of the entire human alliance. After listening to the "......", the eldest prince did not say anything. "Your Highness?" the butler called tentatively.
After a while, the eldest prince trembled and stared at him: "...... What you say, it's all true?"
"Yes, this news is true, however, there is no accurate news about the life and death of that one, but I am afraid that it is more than ......auspicious," the butler replied cautiously.
"Actually, how could such a thing happen?" The eldest prince with a surprised face stood up suddenly, walked back and forth several times in place, and then stopped, still with an inexplicable excitement in his tone: "You must check this matter carefully, go, immediately call someone to investigate, be sure to find out an accurate news! If the news is confirmed, I will definitely reward you heavily!" As he spoke, the previous spirit came out again.
"Please rest assured, Your Highness, I will definitely check it carefully!"
If the eldest prince has the opportunity to regain the crown prince's position, then the eldest prince's family will follow the rising tide! When the butler heard this, he immediately saluted the prince again with great excitement and retired. After the housekeeper left, the eldest prince's mood was still difficult to calm down. "Pass on my orders, pay close attention to the movements of the nobles and nobles in the royal capital, and report to me immediately if there is any disagreement. "Also, immediately send someone to the Tertashaw Collar to pay close attention to the movements of Princess Sinia and the others, and report to me immediately if there is any change. The eldest prince gathered a few of his cronies and gave orders. After everything was arranged, his heart fell into extreme tension again.
"What if...... What if he didn't die? What if he ......didn't die? If he comes back, won't I be happy in vain? It seems that I can't behave in any way until there is a decision on whether he will live or die, otherwise I will probably do it again. While walking back and forth, thoughts flashed through the eldest prince's mind. At the same time, the city of Yuanfan Harbor led by Tetashaw was desolate.
There were many proclamations posted in the outer city, announcing the demise of the Fifth Fleet, and, awarding them for their bravery.
The families of those who died in this battle will receive a large amount of wealth, and their children will also enjoy many benefits. In the choice of future study and work, priority is given to the sons of other lords. However, thanks to the Fifth Fleet, there were not many people in the territory, and most of them were withdrawn. The news of the annihilation of the human alliance has long since reached Princess Chenya's mansion.
As early as after receiving the news that Alini gave her, she had already guessed what Alini meant, on the one hand, she repaired a book and reported to her father and queen mother, on the other hand, she had to wait for the accurate news of whether her second brother was alive or dead!
The eldest prince would know about this, and she expected it, after all, although the eldest brother is not as good as the second brother in many talents, but in the use of power, it will not be too far behind.
...... Father, mother, please take care, although the news I brought to you, although it will make you feel sad, but in the control of the situation in the kingdom, it will be a little more prepared, I will report this matter to you as soon as possible, as for the life and death of the second brother, I will seriously investigate, as soon as there is news, I will immediately report to the father and the queen mother. ”
The letter was passed through using the magic array, as early as when the eldest prince got the news, in fact, the king had already received first-hand news, but he secretly ordered to block the news. When it reached the ears of the eldest prince, in fact, the king already knew about it.
In the royal capital, although the king was inexplicably sad, he did not take his mood as a transfer, and a deceitful drama was staged in the royal capital again.
