"Shall I say so...", Ted did not want to answer directly, but returned the question to Leonardo da Vinci.

"If you were a lord of the north, would you have the people brave the snow to cross the 120-kilometer-wide Gobi to deliver food to the south? You know, in this kind of weather, if you don't pay attention to it, you will get lost in the Gobi and end up freezing to death...

So~ Sir Leonardo da Vinci, can you bear to sacrifice the lives of your lords to help other people who have been afflicted? ”

Leonardo da Vinci stopped what he was doing, thought about it with his not very bright mind, and gave an unreliable answer: "This... If I can cross the Gobi and deliver supplies to the victims, I am willing! Even if it comes to some sacrifices, it's worth it! ”

The crowd scoffed at this answer, and even Steve was surprised by the answer, which had to be a disgusting answer that only Virgin Mary and her grandmother could come up with.

"Oops... Sir Leonardo da Vinci, the brilliance of your Virgin almost blinded my eyes~" Ted leaned back and laughed, and the people around him laughed too.

"I'll give you an analysis of several aspects..."Ted put down the cup in his hand, took a deep breath, and stared at the Virgin in front of him with a serious expression...

"Such a ridiculous thing, if you want to recruit volunteers, it is almost impossible, besides, the north has always been at odds with the rest of the empire, so you can only send troops and forcibly recruit people to cross the Gobi, according to the records of the past few years, the probability of passing through the Gobi is only one-third, indicating that only one of the three caravans will reach the middle of the empire."

"At that time, you will not only have to bear the losses, but also compensate the soldiers and the people's pensions, these expenses are enough to drag down any hereditary noble, and no nobles are willing to do this alone!"

"Even if your food arrives! Counting the consumption on the road, the rest is a drop in the bucket, and it will be ridiculed by the group of hungry people who are dying of hunger and have no gratitude! ”

Such a ridiculous thing, Wang Duoyu didn't dare to invest!

Dragging icebergs from the Arctic, understandable, but throwing people into snowdrifts to freeze to death, as long as the brain is slightly normal, will not do it.

Ted didn't understand Sir Leonardo da Vinci's thoughts, and he didn't know what kind of childhood happened to make him who he is today.

"Could it be... Was his brain lit up by a priest or a nun when he was a child? "Strange thoughts flashed by...

These words, which he had never heard before, and the contemptuous gazes of the people around him, made Leonardo da Vinci realize that something seemed to be something wrong with him, so he did not refute, but put down what he was holding and waited for Ted's next words.

"After that, your people will resent you, tax evasion is a trivial matter, and it may lead to assassination of you, because of your stupid actions, in times of peace, children who should have fathers have lost their fathers, wives have lost their husbands, etc..."

"In the end, in spite of your opposition, you continue to forcibly recruit people! Then your people will rise up, break through the blockade of the guards with farm tools, and send you to the guillotine! Even if you were well-intentioned at the beginning, it will turn out to be a bad thing in the end, and there will only be one more stupid lord in history who will be killed by the people, and no one will care what you think in the first place. ”

"When the time comes, you and your 10,000 soldiers will face the wrath of 600,000 people, dare to ask, can you swing your sword 60 times? Because on average, you're going to kill 60 people... Besides, your soldiers are also civilians, will they still protect you? ”

Ted smiled and drank half a glass of water, and continued: "I love my people, I will not let them risk their lives to save strangers, in my eyes, they are my brothers and sisters, life is especially important, I want them to live well, and I will keep the best for my own people!" ”

Leonardo da Vinci was stunned, holding his chin and began to doubt his life, and pondered whether his past actions were reliable.

And Ted continued to fan the flames: "Putting these aside, even if you successfully send food and there is no loss, then ~ the lord of the hungry people, what will the other marquis and dukes think of you, they will only think that you are nosy, and then make enemies with you, and will be proposed to vote by the emperor and nobles, and finally exiled on trumped-up charges~"

"Then again, that's why, Sir Leonardo da Vinci, you're just a knight, not a hereditary nobleman, you don't have your own territory, and you're not a member of a hereditary family... After all, if you put the lives of your lords in your hands, you might as well take them as slaves, and you will live for two more days, because sooner or later they will be killed by your growing heart of the Virgin! ”

"You ignore the people around you, you seek the near and far, and in the end you try your best but you can't get any benefits~"

"I'll give you a quote from our northern realm: never do anything that only moves you, but is actually of little use to diao..."

"In our place, this kind of person, what is it called!"

The previous words were very serious, and when Ted finished the last word, everyone burst into laughter, completely blowing away the originally oppressive atmosphere~

At the same time, the good people who came to the banquet heard this, and when they returned home, they would rush to tell everyone what they had seen and heard today!

Especially the words 'my brothers and sisters' have no precedent, and it is estimated that there is no one who comes~

Combined with what has happened recently, these are not bragging!

Now, the people of the North are being treated to frightening proportions!

If there are outsiders who come to the north and experience this, they will eat as soon as they wake up, and then sleep with the green flowers at home, and then sleep like a dead pig, and return to their hometown without writing a "Peach Blossom Spring" are sorry for what they have seen and heard!

According to historical experience, the influence of gossip is much stronger than the official right to speak, and what Ted is doing now is to grasp the right to speak, whether it is official or small-talk, he has to handle it with one hand!

It won't be long before the image of loving the people like a son will be widely spread, and the people's respect for themselves will rise to a higher level!

Ted's goal is to make the territory have fifty percent of the outstanding citizens who are loyal to him, thirty percent of the ordinary citizens who blindly obey him, and one percent of the wall grass!

Such a ratio of citizens will greatly improve the efficiency of social production, and will also allow the lord to gain unprecedented appeal, but also for future development!

...

When the laughter around him faded away, Ted's face returned to a smile, and he glanced at the maid beside him, and then introduced, "Okay, so much to talk about, it's time for the main course!" This is our traditional Hover family delicacy from the Edwardian dynasty 20,000 years ago: Helrington Steak! Please try it~"

The next moment, the gorgeously dressed beauties covered with translucent veils came to the guests with delicacies~

Compared with other maids, the dark elf woman in front of Steve has a fairy face, her figure and temperament are completely in line with his aesthetics, and every movement, every smile is like a flying knife, piercing his heart.

Ted put down the chopsticks in his hand, turned his head and asked in a low voice: "Alice, what's the matter with this woman in front of the prince, I remember, without her..."

Alice trembled her right hand, as if she had seen something terrible, and she reminded in a low voice, "My lord, it is so, she is from our clan... According to your words, she is called the female sea king, 622 years old this year, there are more than 2,200 men with one leg alone, and her interest is to hunt all kinds of handsome guys, whether she is married or not, she has to try! And there has never been a defeat! Relying on his unique work, he broke up hundreds of families, and even when he was captured as a slave, he was never wronged..."

Hearing this, Ted gasped and broke out in a cold sweat, even scared off the chopsticks in his hand...

Such an experienced female sea king, it is estimated that every movement and every breath will hook the soul of a man!

But ~ thinking about it this way, I can take this opportunity to seize the handle of the prince!

"Your Excellency, you should also be careful, I have read the hunting target manual of this female sea king, and you are one of them... Code: 2298"

“？？？”

Alice's later words left Ted dumbfounded... I thought I could borrow the hand of the female sea king to take advantage of the prince! Let him keep his mouth shut and stop talking...

Now it seems that the goal has been achieved, but... A sitting duck!

Ted has antibodies to most women, but for this kind of billions of male killers similar to Marilyn Monroe, his own resistance is not enough for her to plug her teeth!

Suddenly, the female sea king noticed something, looked back slowly, and threw out a hormonal look of admiration! This sudden sharp look directly cut Ted's major artery...

"I'll go—" Ted felt dizzy, short of breath, and an indescribable sensation about to burst through his brain.

"My lord, are you hot?" Thoughtful Mia picks up a clammy towel and quickly pastes it on Ted's face... That's when he relented...

"OMG! This skill... Thank you Mia! ”

This feeling is scary, and I don't know if there is any way to prevent it: "This female sea king is really a cow and half old, NB still exists, I really have to be careful!" ”

Ted is awake, but Steve is mesmerized, his head is dizzy, his eyes are shining with pink hearts, and there is only the shadow of the female Aquaman in his pupils.

The next moment, he stood up like a brain twitch, and in a strange tone, he uttered a reason: "Ahem... Mr. Earl, I remember that I have something to bring you, can I wait for it to be retrieved?" ”

It's obvious that I'm seduced!

It's just that ~ no one cares, because human beings have a vague concept of magic, and they all think that adults make it up to fool children...

As for the magic of the Moon Elves... It's just a sigh at the speed of growing vegetables!

Ted didn't have such an idea, he just planned to get him drunk and ask for some royal secrets, and the fairy jump was the worst plan.

But the plan hasn't changed quickly, and it doesn't seem to be able to jump up at the moment, the female sea king has chosen the hunting object, according to Alice's meaning, and the prince's performance, this is not acting, but a real thing.

Ted put down the tableware, stood up according to aristocratic etiquette and made a gesture of please: "No problem, the dinner party lasts until midnight, you can find it slowly~"

"I'll go back as soon as I go! It won't take long, soon~" Steve blushed and left the banquet hall behind the female Aquaman.

Now that the plan has changed, you have to grasp it! Ted gave Chris a wink and lip-synched, "Turn off the flash!" ”

This camera was bought by Ted some time ago in exchange for two truckloads of boutique TTs, and in order to better record the changes in the city, it is necessary to have such a thing! You can also collect evidence by the way~

Chris nodded in agreement, pretending to leave with a notepad.

The rest of the people continue to eat and drink.

Leonardo da Vinci thought about it for a long time, and probably understood what Ted said, he was indeed wrong...

Chris followed Steve all the way to his bedroom.

Inside the house, the female sea king pressed the prince against the wall, and teased and whispered in his ear with a lustful voice: "I heard that you have a wife and children, it is said that you are a strict wife, aren't you afraid?" ”

Steve hesitated, and lost consciousness again after no more than three seconds of consciousness.

"It's okay~ Dear Royal Highness, I will let you experience the taste of betraying your wife, even more subtle than the feeling of betraying God! From today until your wife knows, as long as you behave well, I will always be your love F~"

The more self-disciplined and well-behaved a man is, the more he will become the target of Aquaman, like this traditional man, forcing him to break the rules, let him be presumptuous, trample on his oath and self-esteem, and finally be led by the nose, and then abandon his wife and children, and scatter all his family wealth!

Especially when a good man kneels in front of his wife to confess, and touches Aquaman's house at night, it is what Aquaman enjoys...

Since then, good men have become bad...

If you don't enter life, it's just a rhetoric, and in the end, you won't break your family apart, and you will never give up!

Meanwhile, Chris is holding his camera, turning off the flash, and keeping watch outside.

"Come~" Aquaman hugged Steve tightly and deliberately lay down on the big bed in the back.

...

Seven seconds later, Chris put away his camera and ran out of the building with a question mark on his face.

"Wait a minute... It was an accident! I'm so nervous! Right! I haven't eaten yet! Give me another chance! ”

"Okay~ Don't lock the door tonight..."

...

When Chris returned to the banquet hall, Ted was stunned, why didn't the housekeeper who had worked hard for many years come back after completing the task he had assigned?

"Your Excellency... That's it..."After the butler explained the situation, Ted couldn't help but laugh...

This event will be the laugh of his whole year: "Poof... 7 seconds? Are you sure? It turns out that the prince just said 'it won't take long, soon' and it wasn't a joke... Hahaha..."

When Steve returns to the ballroom, Ted can't help but smile... He didn't dare to look directly at Steve, and as soon as he looked up at him, it seemed that he saw the number 7 hanging over his head and preparing to count down...

After drinking a large glass of iced coconut water, he calmed down, wiped his smiling face and continued the banquet.

"Come~ His Royal Highness the Prince, since you are back, then enjoy the traditional dance of our northern moon elves~"

In order to settle the lie, the prince Steve really brought a small gift, a royal short knife...

Ted has no interest in this thing, it is better to be portable than a dagger, and in terms of power, it is better to use a machete, this thing is very awkwardly positioned, and it can only be regarded as a work of art thrown in the warehouse and moldy...

"Ahem... No problem! "The prince who has entered the sage mode is like an emperor seriously at the moment, but... The majestic appearance is slightly comical.

The feast continued until midnight when everyone dispersed.

During the Moon Elves' traditional dance, Tedra watched Mia and Alice's little hands in silence.

It seems like... Feeling good to hug left and right?

...

With the consent of the female Aquaman, the photographs became confidential documents in Ted's possession.

A self-disciplined man like the prince who takes care of his family is known by his wife that he is stealing people outside... What would it look like?

It's just that... Ted didn't think Steve's wife would care much, after all, 7 seconds... Not even enough time for a cup of tea...
