Chapter 16 Life Choices

"Two guests, it's late at night, my Lord Duke Potter has just gone to sleep, please come back," a butler-like man walked out of the door and said respectfully to the two of them, who had been standing there for a long time. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Info, although the butler's attitude is very respectful, his fingers rub each other. "Looking forward to what His Royal Highness the Grand Prince of the Mark Empire can give as a toll."

"Ahh

Kasia took Prar and walked slowly towards the post house, originally this peace negotiation should have been the upper hand of the Mark Empire, but now the father is old, and the second brother is eyeing the throne, it just so happens that winter is coming, and the front-line soldiers are not well fed and clothed in order to win the hearts of the people so they deigned to come here to negotiate. Who knew that after such insults in the court today, a little butler now dared to criticize himself, or he had to plunder a few cities to spend the winter after he returned.

Seeing that the two were really leaving, the butler hurriedly chased after them and said, "Slow down, the Duke is waiting for the two in the hall."

"Oh, didn't Potter just fall asleep, why are you waiting for us in the hall again?" said Kasia, looking at the greedy butler in disgust.

"The little one has already sent someone to inform the Duke, and the adult is very happy to know that the two are coming, and he specially asked the little one to keep the two."

"Are you minions fast?"

"Everything is for the Duke and the Duke should be," the butler led the two into the front yard as he spoke. The housekeeper scolded the guard next to him and said, "Protect the two adults, so that no cats and dogs disturb the two adults."

The guards around them formed a circle around the two with spears in their hands, their eyes fixed on Kasia. The dust that followed the two of them all the way lay on the room and watched everything that happened below unmoved.

"Two adults, the two of you will continue to the bedroom" The two of them suddenly stopped when they walked to a rockery under the leadership of the housekeeper, pointed to the rockery and said, "Two adults, please."

Kasia looked at the rockery and was silent, this Potter can cover the sky with one hand in El, why is he still so anti-counterfeiting? Could it be that there is really a third-party force in this capital? Pryor saw that His Highness was silent and knew that there was an explosion inside, but he couldn't retreat after he had come here. Pryor saw a small rock at his feet, and shot lightly into the rockery. The stone disappeared through the rockery.

Pryor whispered: "Your Highness, Your Highness, it's safe inside."

"Hmm" Kasia replied and walked towards the rockery fearlessly, and the butler on the side was dumbfounded, originally wanting to embarrass the prince of the empire. I didn't expect this to be the case. In fact, even if Pryor didn't tell him, Kasia would crash into the rockery, and it would be a big deal to pay back ten times the humiliation he received on the battlefield here.

As soon as the two walked through the rockery, there was a long tunnel, at the end of the tunnel was a small secret room, the gray wall had no other decorations except for the magic stone for lighting, and the furnishings in the secret room were also very simple, a table was placed in the middle, there was a chair on each side, and there was only a map on the table, Duke Potter looked at the map carefully, quietly waiting for the arrival of the prince.

"I didn't expect Grand Duke Potter to be so careful in the Republic of El with one hand covering the sky, are you afraid that someone will assassinate you? The one behind him is"? Sitting in a chair, Cassia only glanced at Evan when he came in, and then his eyes were attracted by the map on the table, but Pryor behind him secretly noted Evan's appearance, and the person who could be by Potter's side on this occasion was definitely not an ordinary character.

"This is my youngest son, it's good to let him study" Potter praised Evan like this, but he drew a large piece of the border with his hand, testing Kasia's bottom line.

"Oh, it's the duke's son, what a talent, it seems that you will have a successor after you die" Cassis certainly can't let Potter get to the bottom of himself now, and the place where his fingers slid to the capital turned out.

"How are you still playing?" Potter's heart was full of anger, but he still said calmly: "You and I are both understanding people, why don't you open the skylight and say something bright, winter is coming, I heard that there are still people in your country who are not enough to eat and clothe, I am really cold, so I can give you food for the winter, how about the place I just crossed belong to me"?

If it was possible to discuss it in the palace in the morning in the main hall, it would be reluctantly acceptable, but now Kasia is not satisfied, although it is said that the lost land can be regained after the beginning of spring, and it is not possible to do things that damage his prestige by exchanging land for food, a flash of inspiration flashed in Kasia's mind and said: "In this way, I know that the Duke loves gold and silver treasures, and the antiques, calligraphy and paintings, gold and silver treasures in my country's treasury are all rusty, so why don't you give the Duke how to exchange for food?"

What Kasia said is not a lie, because the nobles who have plundered the border all year round, although they are very rich, but the El Empire is too strict about trade, although there are a few risky caravans can still trade, but it is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket for the huge Mark Empire, and the gold and silver in the treasury are not a lie.

"Good". Potter said happily as he let go of the map. Been waiting for this sentence. What land, land, for him, as long as he doesn't capture the national capital, he is still the duke above 10,000 people, as for the border of those civilians dead or alive, what does it matter to him?

Evan behind him looked at his excited father with disgust, countless civilians have changed their lives because of the secret agents of the two tonight, power is really terrifying, how many people can one person kill if he picks up a weapon? a hundred, a thousand, or ten thousand? But today, this small decision may starve thousands of people to death.

Evan's understanding of power in his heart has risen to a level, the original thought that people with power are just small fights, bullying and bullying street girls, everyone respects those in power, Evan's defense line for power is breaking little by little, which is why Potter brought him here, after all, Evan is about to grow up, and he can't mess around all day. Although Potter is not good to Evan, after all, he is a father, and his father's love is like a mountain. It's so heavy that it's breathless.

Seeing off the two of Cassia, Duke Potter slowly returned to the room to rest, but he didn't see a flash of murder in the eyes of the dust who had been waiting on the room for a long time, although Potter felt that he was impermeable, but the conversation in the secret room was clearly heard by the dust, this greedy guy doesn't know who gave all this now?
