207. Wellington's Political Story 4 - You, Something Isn't Right
Sitting in the carriage, Philip quietly came to the Watson family manor, the Watson blood clan is also familiar with this "uncle", knowing the purpose of his visit today, as soon as the carriage is opened, someone will lead them to the reception room to wait, and at the same time serve the nobles' favorite black tea.
The sweet liquid slid across the tip of his tongue, but Philip couldn't feel it, and his anxiety made him drink nothing but tasteless, and he waited for a lovely person to appear.
"Your Excellency Philip?"
Adrian's soft call brought Philip back from his trance, and Lord Lobit nodded to the Prince of Blood, who didn't know when he arrived: "Your Highness, good day." ”
"Good day, Your Excellency, you seem to be in a little unhealthy, did you not sleep well yesterday?"
"Ah, yes, hehe......" Philip smiled reluctantly, the proposal to merge Lobit and Garya still gave him some pressure, after all, this was his first proposal, and it was likely to fail the first time, and it would still have a big impact on his confidence.
However, Philip will not say these words in front of Adrian, and in front of his allies, he must not show that he can't do it, otherwise, they will be warm to you one second, and the next second they will turn into man-eating beasts.
"Back in the family, my father took me everywhere to meet his friends and comrades-in-arms, and yesterday I was late in chatting with Uncle Dom, so I didn't get enough sleep. ”
Adrian Haruha smiled, "Councilor Dom is a man of great wisdom, and it will be beneficial for you to learn more from him, and I thought you were worried that we would not cure Grace." It seems that I was overly worried, and the news from the four elders of the blood pool said that Grace replied quickly, oh, by the way, Lord Philip, this is Gael, the father of Grace, and a powerful bloodline at the duke-level. ”
Adrian pointed to a half-bald middle-aged man beside him and said, No, this man with a dead face is not as charming and touching as his Grace, and Philip can't imagine that Grace is so beautiful. There could be such a father.
Gail seems to be quite arrogant. Even if he greeted Philip with a slight click of his chin, he didn't even plan to shake his hand.
Philip remembers that Grace told him that she did not have a good relationship with her father, and that it was Gale who had turned her from an innocent and romantic aristocratic girl into a blood family. This kind of person. For the sake of his own power, even his daughter can do it. Philip had no intention of dealing with him.
Adrian was about to boast when he suddenly stopped, looking in some surprise in the direction of the entrance to the reception room.
Philip also felt behind the door. There was an astonishing amount of force, and it felt like knowing that there was a fierce-willed lion behind the door of the Dao, and it could come in at any time.
"Bah!" the door was slammed open, and the slender legs in high-heeled riding boots stepped on the fluffy little woolen carpet, and a graceful figure appeared in front of Philip, but under the graceful body of a woman, there was something that Philip had never seen before.
Powerful!
Powerful to the point that even in the face of the Blood Prince, Grace didn't have to restrain his breath, and Philip obviously saw that Gail involuntarily took a step back under the pressure of his daughter's powerful aura.
"Why are you here?" Grace looked at his father coldly, his face was not interested in seeing the joy of his family, and his indifferent look was like an iceberg.
Gail opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't open his mouth in Grace's cold eyes.
"Well, Grace, Gail is your father after all, and he cares about you too. ”
"Care about me, care about me, you wouldn't have given me eternal life more than a thousand years ago, my dear father, you really care for me!" said the last few words, Grace almost gritted his teeth, and did not care at all about Gael, who was also a duke.
"Your Highness, please let him leave, he is definitely not here out of sincere concern for me, but after knowing that I have almost the strength of the Grand Duke, he wants to win me over, I don't want to see some disgusting guys on this happy day. When Grace said these words, he seemed much more confident than before, and Philip remembered that the last time he and the Duchess "borrowed" someone from Adrian, Grace was like a docile little woman, and he looked very deferential in front of Adrian.
Hearing Grace's words, Adrian looked at Grace, then at Gail, and finally sighed, "Gail, you step back first." ”
Hearing this, the expression on Gail's face changed, and finally, with an unwilling look, he walked out the door.
As soon as his father left, Grace's aura suddenly retracted, and the ferocious feeling was as if it had never appeared, and he gently walked to Philip's side and gave him a big hug to his lover.
"You're getting a little different. "Familiar with the fragrance of a woman, but the strength she showed just now is very different from the previous Grace.
Philip looked at Grace, he didn't want the pool of blood to turn the woman he loved into another person.
"Of course it's different, because of that accident, I seem to have been a blessing in disguise, my body can hold more blood energy, and now I have the strength close to the Grand Duke. ”
As soon as Grace's words fell, his soft body turned into a phantom in front of Philip, and before the man could react, the phantom turned into a physical object again, but there was an extra decorative vase placed in the corner of the room in his hand.
Such speed is almost beyond the limits of human vision, and Philip and Grace have fought side by side many times, and the previous Duchess definitely did not have such strength. It's no wonder that her father, who has always been at odds with her, also put down his body and wanted to mend the relationship, but unfortunately, the kind of person who is full of interests has no idea what his daughter is thinking, and the most embarrassing thing is a naked slap in the face.
"My dear, I'm happy for you. "Anyway, Grace's improved ability is a good thing for her, and Philip will naturally be happy for her. If it weren't for the presence of outsiders now, Philip would have carried Grace to the bed and comforted him.
"Ahem!"
Adrian's pretended coughing voice interrupted the young couple, and the Blood Prince looked at Grace and Philip's expressions became more enthusiastic than just now, which made Philip deeply feel that strength is king, and the combination of the heir to the empire's wealthy family and the powerful duke of the Blood Clan made the Blood Prince look like a long-lost relative.
"Count Philip, who is in love, I heard that your bill in Parliament is not going well?" (to be continued......)
