Chapter 164: The Dinner Party (4)

In all fairness, although the prince in front of him was ugly, his eyes were like torches and his momentum was extraordinary, and Tang Jie immediately remembered a person he knew in that world.

Pepin, Prime Minister of the French Empire!

This man is also not good-looking, and can even compete with the dwarfs, and all his political enemies attack him violently with his appearance and figure.

But Pepin was a man of great talent, he didn't take these people seriously at all, he killed all his political enemies with his slick and cunning, and his old and spicy political skills, and finally ascended to the throne of the French Empire!

But the most remarkable thing about this person is that he has educated an extremely strong son.

His son is Charlemagne, the future French Empire!

Tang Jie didn't know if Kirk had a son like Charlemagne, but he keenly felt that this man's ugly appearance was wrapped in an ambition that could not be underestimated!

Such a man who is in a high position and may become the emperor of the empire in the future, but he can put down his body and talk like this with Tang Jie, a pirate who once offended him and this empire, just this open-mindedness has to make Tang Jie secretly admire.

What's more, when this man spoke, his eyes were blazing and his eyes were staring at him, and there was a heart-wrenching power in his electric gaze.

If you change to someone else and meet Kirk, you will definitely surrender to his bearing and momentum, and willingly use it.

But Kirk met Tang Jie.

This is a man who will not be restrained, swayed, or controlled by anyone, and he and Kirk are not only different in terms of interests and positions, but they are completely two types of people.

Kirk is the prince, although he has great power, but every move is restricted and controlled in all directions, he grew up in this palace from childhood to adulthood, and everything in his life is orderly and very orderly.

But Tang Jie is not, he is an unruly and unruly man by nature, and there are very few people in this world who can influence him and restrain him, and there are very few rules and regulations that can frame him and restrict him.

He is like a bird in the sky, yearning for the blue sky that flies at will, and he is like a fish in the sea, yearning for the blue sea.

Tang Jie looked at Kirk, he sighed slightly, and said slowly: "Your Highness Kirk, your love really touches me. I also believe that you can give me most of the things in this world, but unfortunately, you can't give me what I want......"

"What?" Although Kirk had expected Tang Jie to refuse him, he couldn't help but subconsciously clench his fists, his eyes narrowed into a line, and his eyes were as sharp as a knife staring at Tang Jie, "What do you want?

Such a promise, if the other nobles heard it, their eyes would be immediately bloodshot and trembling, because this was equivalent to Kirk telling Tang Jie clearly, except that the throne could not be given to you, even if you wanted to be the prime minister, you could do it!

They live in this world, intriguing in the officialdom all day long, and every minute and second are beware of others calculating others, for the sake of this kind of day when one person is above ten thousand people and has great power?

Some of them have struggled all their lives, and even a family has struggled for several generations, but they have not climbed to this position, but Tang Jie has just arrived, and it was only the first private meeting with Kirk, and Kirk offered him such a high price!

How is this not shocking?

As soon as these nobles knew about Kirk's offer to Tang Jie, they would be maddened with jealousy: what was so great about this dark-haired fellow? Why was he so favored by Prince Kirk?

A young husband can't go without money for a day, and a big husband can't go a day without power!

After ascending to the high position of the prime minister of the empire and holding great power, is he still worried that he has no money? With money, almost everything in this world is available! However, Tang Jie does not value these things.

Chu Jun Kirk was amazingly bold to open such a sky-high bargaining chip, Tang Jie was shocked in his heart, and secretly shook his head in admiration.

If it were him, would he dare to say such a thing to a man who had offended himself and who seemed to have a backbone in the back of his head?

Tang Jie smiled slightly and said, "My Highness, you can give me everything in this world, money, power, and beauty!

"No matter how rich I am, I'm just a golden bird in a huge cage! Even if I have power, I'm just a guy in this palace looking outside the high walls and waiting to die!" Tang Jie said slowly, every word hit Kirk's heart like a hammer, "Such a day, I feel boring when I think about it, and life is full of gray colors. Your Highness, you may wonder why I would go to live a life of indefinite abode and adrift on the sea, rather than a life of privilege and comfort."

"But, Your Highness Kirk, you have not comprehended the life of fighting the wind and waves on the sea, and you have not experienced the taste of conquering the vast sea! Therefore, you will never know what the charm of sea life is!" Tang Jie said angrily, he turned around and looked in the direction of the sea of Nilcia, and stood majestically.

"Your Highness, you know why the sea is like a mysterious monster, it has devoured countless human lives, but there are many more human beings who puff up their chests, raise their heads, and rush to the sea in an endless stream, they drive their own ships, and use their flesh and blood to compete with the power of heaven and earth on the sea!

Kirk kept his face calm and didn't answer, he found that as soon as the black-haired man talked about the sea, his momentum surged like a wave, covering him at once, which was something he couldn't tolerate for a prince who was about to take over the throne, and he had lived for decades, and there was no one who could cover him in momentum by face-to-face conversation, which was even more intolerable as a competitive man!

Tang Jie didn't care about this, he continued: "That's because the sea is more dangerous, more mysterious, and more magnificent and magical than the land! Our world is surrounded by the sea, and the area of the land is like that of children and adults compared to the ocean! On the land, we are down-to-earth, and we can walk the whole world with our own hands and feet! But not in the sea, we have the rough sea under our feet, and the vast and boundless sky above our heads, we are helpless, and we never know what we will see tomorrow!" ”

"But it is precisely because of this unknown mystery that countless people have been driven to come to the ocean to find their dreams! The sea is so magnanimous and magical, she can tolerate all people, and she can also allow any miracle to happen! On the land, can you imagine that a guy like me who has no roots and no foundation can become the king of the current Nilsia Sea?" Tang Jie smiled slightly, "No, this is absolutely impossible, the family forces on the land are intertwined, and they will not allow the emerging forces to challenge their position!"

"However, the sea is different, the sea is too vast and too wide, and any corner of the sea may rise at any time a jaw-dropping strong force and power! No one can predict it, and no one can control it!" Tang Jie said in high spirits, his eloquent demeanor was not weaker than that of the eloquent Kirk, coupled with his majestic figure and masculine appearance, which made Kirk secretly jealous in his heart.

"The sea, this is the cradle that gives birth to dreams! Anyone, as long as he has the courage and courage, he can realize his dreams, even if he is penniless, even if he is bare-handed! The charm of the sea lies in this!" Tang Jie said categorically, and finally summed up the statement: "The sea is not as complex as the land, there are mountains and rivers, swamps and lakes, snow-capped mountains and meadows, in front of us is always an endless sea, as long as we want, we can sail the ship to the end of the world!" Can you give me such a free and unfettered life?"

Kirk stopped talking, he completely gave up the idea of recruiting Tang Jie, although he was extremely jealous of this man's tough appearance and extraordinary bearing, but after all, he was a prince in a high position, and his bearing was unusual, he thought about it: Since he can't recruit for his own use, maybe you can try to make an alliance with him?

As soon as Kirk's thought turned, he suddenly found Tang Jie's gaze past him and behind him.

Kirk was stunned for a moment, and unconsciously turned his head, only to see a slender figure in the hall behind him leap into view.

This is his fiancée, Angel, the princess of the Falco Empire.

When Kirk saw Angel's figure, he froze for a moment, and there was a hint of warmth in his eyes, so many years of cold and cruel court struggles had long since killed all his tenderness, and after the death of the empress of Chryza XVI, the woman he loved so much, his dead heart had never been warmed again.

But when Kirk saw Angel, he suddenly felt that his dead heart seemed to have met a living spring breeze and revived again.

This woman is a stunner that can make a man intoxicated and obsessed, she is not as beautiful as Margaret, not as sexy as Lydia, but she is the kind of woman you want to be gentle with her when you look at her, she is the kind of woman you want to linger with her and be gentle and cherish for a lifetime.

Kirk fell in love with Angel at first sight, but he didn't see the same feelings in the eyes of this woman.

Although this woman is reserved and smiling, her eyes are full of indifference and pain, tangled and struggling looks, and there seems to be a barrier between her and herself, no matter what topic Kirk wants to use to get in touch with her, she is subconsciously blocked by this woman.

At first, Kirk didn't know why, but now Kirk suddenly saw Tang Jie's eyes, and he suddenly woke up: this man still hasn't said one thing: he wants this woman!

Tang Jie is not an old spicy politician who can control his emotions at will, in this kind of repressive court that is staggered on the surface but secretly intrigued, he can vigilantly cover himself up and protect himself most of the time, but at a certain time, at a certain moment, he will always unconsciously reveal his true feelings.

What's more, he saw the woman he loved appear in front of his eyes?

What Tang Jie said just now, there is indeed one thing that has not been finished, what he wants is not only freedom, but also Angel, a woman.

But Tang Jie knew that he couldn't say the latter request, because the former said it, but he politely refused the future emperor's solicitation, which only hurt his face, and did not anger him;

For a man, there are two things in this world that they absolutely cannot tolerate, even the most magnanimous people cannot tolerate!

The first is your own power and privacy!

If a man is deprived of his power and his privacy is exposed, it is undoubtedly the most terrible punishment for this man; if a man lives in this world and has no power, what is the difference between him and a slave? If a man cannot even keep his own privacy in this world, will he not be ridiculed when he lives?

The second is the man's woman.

In this world, there is nothing more than the hatred of taking a wife to make a man grit his teeth and unforgettable, a woman is not only a symbol of their love, but also a symbol of status, power and majesty, if a man can't even protect his own woman, then what else can he talk about? All his respect and status in this world will be deprived by people with sneering eyes!

If you wear a green hat, you won't want to take it off again for the rest of your life!

It is like the deepest curse of shame in the world, it has been following this man, even if he enters the coffin, into hell, it will hover above his tombstone like an entangled soul, sneering hideously, telling everyone who passes by this tombstone the shame of his master's life.

An ordinary man would not be able to tolerate such a thing, let alone Kirk, the future emperor?

Kirk realized in an instant why Angel had been lukewarm to him, and why the dark-haired man in front of him had looked at him so hostilely at first.

It turns out that he is in love with his fiancée, and Angel is clearly in love with him too!

Kirk suddenly felt the urge to laugh!

How could I get dizzy and try to recruit this guy?

It's over, it's all over, and although Kirk is now eager to stab Tang Jie to death with a knife immediately, he still maintains a smile on his face, a smile like a mask.

"Well, I think I've got you covered, it's a shame......" Kirk said slowly, as if he was afraid that he would not be able to control his emotions if he spoke quickly.

Tang Jie didn't know that Kirk had really killed himself at this time, he was alert, and quickly withdrew his gaze to look at Angel, looked at Kirk in front of him, and was about to speak, but heard a clear and loud voice coming from not far away.

"Aha, I couldn't find you at the banquet, I didn't expect you to hide in this place!" The voice wasn't as deep and magnetic as Kirk's, but it was full of confidence and energy, and it had a unique charm.

Tang Jie glanced at it, but saw a man in a white dress walking slowly with a smile on his face, it was the sworn enemy of Prince Kirk, Prince Fernandez!
