In the pool of red bubbles, Grace opened his eyes and sighed softly, his body rose higher and higher in the pool of blood, and his slender legs stepped on the stairs and walked out of the pool of blood step by step.

Stretching out her hands, a respectful and docile maid immediately presented a soft and gentle robe for the freshly baked duchess.

Clear and wonderful virgin scent, Grace sniffed lightly, stretched out his soft tongue and kissed the maid's neck, virgin or virgin, can arouse the desire of the blood clan.

Grace gently lifted the maid's chin with her hand, which she had learned from Philip and was said to make people feel more conquering.

The maid closed her eyes, looking relaxed and peaceful, as if she was ready to accept the duchess's next storm, whether it was a leather whip or a fragrant kiss, she had no problem.

Grace shook his head mockingly, pushing away the maid who was about to accept his nectar, Grace did not trust such people, it was said that every new duke would receive one such gift, a virgin or virgin who was willing to sacrifice for himself.

Opening the door, a breath of fresh air came to the face, which made people feel refreshed, a face was somewhat similar to Grace, but the eyes were slender young man saw the duchess come out, and immediately greeted him with a smile, opening his arms, as if he wanted to hug Grace.

"My dear sister, congratulations on becoming a Duke-level blood clan, starting today, we have an extra Liliang in the Watson family. ”

Grace passed by the young man, not looking at his brother with open arms ready to hug. He walked coldly to the middle-aged man behind him, looked at the overworked and half-bald head before he became a blood clan, and said, "Gail, I had nothing to do with you in the past, I have nothing to do with you now, and I have nothing to do with you in the future. ”

A hint of anger flashed across the face of the middle-aged man named Gail, and he shouted at Grace, "Don't forget, you're my daughter!"

Grace, who had already walked past Gael, turned his head and looked at his father like a stranger: "Gael, since you turned me into a blood with your own hands. You're no longer my father!"

―――――

Walk through the dimly lit corridor. Those low-level blood clans saw Grace retreat and salute one after another, and the dukes who had to salute in fear in the past also smiled and nodded when they saw Grace, although they had been suppressing and didn't want to advance, but they were really after becoming a duke-level blood clan. Grace also felt the benefits of privilege.

That seems like a good idea......

Originally. Grace still didn't want to be a duke. However, everything changed when Katrina summoned her. Contrary to Grace's imagination, the goddess has too much malice towards herself, the woman who shares her husband. Instead, he said, "Philip will fly higher and higher, and if you don't keep up with him, sooner or later you will feel like you're far away from him." ”

Therefore, Grace let go of his suppression, nearly a thousand years, has long let Grace have the upgrade conditions, the role of the blood pool is only a step to complete this upgrade, if the blood clan is upgraded, without the care of the blood pool, just like a baby growing up in a womb without the protection of the mother, all kinds of unpredictable dangers will destroy the blood clan in the weakest state, not to mention that the huge energy required by the blood clan when upgrading can only be provided by the blood pool.

The blood pool of Goldfish Castle cannot meet the energy required by the Marquis-level Grace to upgrade to the Duke level, only the main castle of the Watson family has such a blood pool, not to mention, Grace has to come here to receive the glory that a Duke-level blood clan deserves.

The neatly dressed waiter pushed open the gold-clad door, and in the room, an old man in a black robe with two long gold stripes tattooed on his collar stood in the room, looking at Grace who walked in with a peaceful gaze.

The powerful coercion, encompassing from all sides, Grace gave birth to an irresistible feeling, the liliang of the prince-level blood clan made her only look up, even if she is now a duke, but in the face of the power of the Watson family, Grace still does not dare to make a mistake.

"Welcome, my child. ”

The old man smiled lightly, dispersed the ubiquitous coercion, reached out and beckoned Grace over, took out a family brooch with a black cross and a white sun on the back and pinned it to Grace's collar, from this moment on, Grace stepped into the core of the Watson family's power and became the family elder with the right to deliberate.

weishenme said one foot, because there are many elders of the Watson family, there are more than a hundred duke-level blood clans accumulated over tens of thousands of years, if it weren't for more elders who fell asleep or committed suicide because they couldn't bear the loneliness for a long time, these people would be more, in order to speed up the efficiency of decision-making, the elder council is only held once a year, and the real core of daily decision-making is the standing elder council composed of the grand duke-level blood clan.

Grace bowed and thanked him, and sat down with the prince, who was like a generous elder at this moment, looking at a rookie like Grace with a smile, not at all as serious as when the duchess came in just now.

"Grace, I heard that you are very close to the second son of the Rose family?" the prince asked seemingly casually, but Grace replied respectfully, "Yes, Your Highness, I have a very close concern with Philip. ”

There is no way to answer like this, the relationship between Grace and Philip is already an open secret in Lobit, and the prince must have eyeliner there, all of which he knows.

The prince was pleased with Grace's answer, and although Grace refused to give her a blood slave, he was still loyal to his family.

Nodding, the prince smiled and said: "Very good, very good, I am very optimistic about Philip, you help him a lot by his side, it is good for the family and for you, if you encounter any problems, you can come to me at any time." ”

Grace looked at the prince in surprise, he said that letting himself help Philip means that the Watson family is very optimistic about Philip's potential, to the Watson family, a blood clan hidden in the dark, generally do not directly participate in various politics, they maintain their own interests by supporting agents and forming alliances of interests, looking at the prince like this, they seem to think that Philip, who is only a local lord now, has the qualifications to be supported.

Thinking of this, Grace didn't know whether to be happy for Philip or worried about him.

Being helped by the Watson family, a blood family with rich political and personal resources, may become a help for Philip on the road to success, or it may kidnap Philip's future because of their own interests, all of which test Philip's political skills.

"Okay!" At this time, Grace can't hesitate, he must agree, as for how to deal with it in the future, let himself and Philip face it together!

―――――

Philip had a headache now, very much, not because he didn't know that the Prophet Watson would be interested in him, but because he was having a splitting headache from the scene of an argument at the family meeting.

The attitude of the Presbyterian Council has changed from not supporting the royal family to changing sides, leaning towards the Republican Party, the pressure of reality is huge, the future relationship between the Hoddle royal family and the Ross family is full of great uncertainty, and any mature politician will never allow the future military power to be in the hands of outsiders.

In the past, George was Lawrence Hoddle's son-in-law, and his future grandson was the heir to the empire, so naturally there was no problem, but now it is different, Nicholas has the power of the army, Lawrence can rest assured, but no one can guarantee that when Nicholas's son or other Rus' children are in power, the imperial army will remain loyal to the emperor.

Don't look at Nicholas is now suppressed by the Republican Party on the border, in order to prove that his wife is not Mandal's spy and constantly fights with Mandal and his vassal countries, it seems to be far away from the center of the empire, in fact, most of the officers in the imperial army came out of the first army of the empire under Nicholas, it can be said that if Nicholas rebels, most of these officers will not resist, or even join Nicholas's ranks.

Therefore, George's "death" caused a subtle change between the two giants of the royalists.

Although Lawrence is his best friend, although the two grew up together, in the face of the responsibility of the family, Nicholas has to admit that this time, he may have to stand on the opposite side of his friend.

However, Nicholas was now at the mercy of the people in the room, and he knew that Keno, the leader of another faction in the Presbyterian Church, had not yet spoken.

Seeing Kino's tall and thin appearance, Nicholas felt a pain in his heart, Keno is his nephew, the son of his own brother, after the death of his brother, he originally wanted to treat him as his own heir, but Keno always thought that he had murdered his father, causing him to lose his position as heir, and he hated his father and son since he was a child.

Now, Keno has gathered a group of people who are dissatisfied with him, although after the divine marriage two years ago, he killed a group of elders who betrayed Philip behind his back, but there are always greedy people in the family, they don't see the hard work of the family elites fighting outside, and only think that their own benefits are privately divided by the children of other families who are fighting hard.

Nicholas believes that today's thing is definitely not only to change the future strategic direction of the family, but also to adjust the relationship with the Hoddle royal family in order to avoid the family's greatest rights being deprived, and to join the Republican Party to hold on to the existing power, Nicholas himself can think of it, but he is currently in the grief of losing his son, and he is not aware of it for a while.

Gradually, in the midst of the elders' verbal conflicts, the voices gradually converged, and after various stakes were analyzed, everyone understood the necessity of adjusting the relationship between the two families, and in order to maintain the current power of the Ross family, switching to the Republican Party was the only option.

As Keno's number one thug, Loren cleared his throat and said with a red face: "Everyone, I personally think that in order to better show sincerity to the Republican Party, the future heir of the family should no longer be a close relative to George, but a person who does not have much intersection with George and has little to do with the Hoddle royal family, I think Keno, even if it is the most Haode candidate!"

Philip and Nicholas glanced at each other, and sure enough, the meat scene was behind. (To be continued......)
