1307 Battle of the Eastward Advance (3)
"In this way, your family is bound to win the consul of the new Rontun region this time!"
In a study room in the room, the sun shone lightly on the balcony near the curtains, and a heavy voice said, this is a man about forty years old, wearing a black straight wide suit, bald, light black skin gives people a feeling of rigidity, the eyebrows are very thick like two ink spots, as long as you see it once, it leaves a deep impression, although sitting on the chair, but it can still be seen that it is a burly, tiger-backed man, with bright eyes, full of energy and vitality.
He is none other than Prescott, the fiefdom lord of Byand, the younger brother of Prescott, the Minister of Finance, and as the head of commerce and trade of the Prescott family in the Northwest Territories, Presnafa has been in the Northwest Territories for twenty years since he left Kyoto at the age of twenty-six.
With a population of more than 200,000, Bionde County, which was originally only a small town, has become an economic and cultural center that affects the northwest coast of the entire empire, and is the area where the Prescott family has paid the most funds to the family
"I wasn't interested in it, but now it's changed!" said a handsome young man with flaxen hair sitting across from him as he picked up the teacup on the table with a smile on his lips, took a sip and looked out the window
"You also know that because of the failure of the empire's eastward expansion strategy, the emperor's eyes are shifting to the south of the continent, and the Nordun region, which is an important coastal area, is the maritime support point for His Majesty's latest southward expansion strategy, and there is no doubt that the empire is in this campaign. Suddenly breaking the original framework and establishing the so-called New Rondun United Zone should be to prepare for the southward expansion strategy, so the family is still worried, after all, the northwest of the empire is the traditional sphere of influence of the family, and if such an important position falls into the hands of other families, it will undoubtedly pose a considerable threat to the stability of the family in the northwest region!"
"Does your family have a predetermined candidate?"
Presnafa raised his head and asked curiously, "As far as I know, the center of gravity of your family has always been in the war against the Northwestern Slavs, and it was a month ago. Having captured Minsk, the central city of the Slavs, His Majesty the Emperor has allowed Lord Julilforburg, who was in charge of the raids, to establish the Minsk district and serve as the first consul of the Minsk district, and in one election, one family will be crowned two consuls at the same time, which has never been done in the history of the empire"
"yes, never before, that's my biggest headache!"
The corner of the young man's mouth smiled bitterly and said, "This is the purpose of my visit." If the family can't send a core person, then they can only find a peripheral person, but you know, since the accident five years ago. The family has been silent for five years, so making such a decision suddenly this time also makes me very helpless as a guy who doesn't know how to learn."
"You mean a foreign marriage?" Presnaphar looked at the young man in front of him with a surprised face, and the corners of his mouth suddenly couldn't help but laugh. With a happy face, he said, "This will definitely become a big event that will shake the entire northwest coast, the marriage of the Julils family, I am afraid that all the principalities will break their heads." Tell me, who do you really have a crush on?, and I'm sure no one would refuse such a good thing!" the marriage of the House of Juliles, Archon of New Nortown...... Gee. If it weren't for the fact that I didn't have a daughter, I probably wouldn't have let go of such an opportunity!" Presnarfa shook his head with emotion on his face, when it came to his prestige in the northwest region, the Presley family, whose main influence was in the southwest of the empire, couldn't catch up even if he patted the horse, "If it were me, it would be easy to do, a woman, just look like a monster, anyway, it would have been a deal!" Hearing what Presnafa said, the young man said bitterly at the corner of his mouth, spread his hands and said, "The problem is that the object of marriage is not me, so it is very difficult!"
"So what do you mean...... Married to someone else in your family?"
Presnaffa suppressed the smile on his face in some surprise, he knew that although the Julils family was a wealthy family in the empire, it was not very prosperous, and the children of the family mainly fought in the bitter cold northwest, and there were not many real core personnel.
After mentally going over all the existing marriageable members of the Julils family, Presnafa stood up from his seat abruptly, staring at the young man in front of him with bulging eyes, as if he had seen a ghost, and said word by word in a trembling voice, "It can't be any of the people who happened five years ago!"
"Unfortunately, you're right!" the young man shrugged his shoulders helplessly
"Does His Majesty the Emperor know?" Presnafa asked with a pale face, walking back and forth uneasily in front of the windowsill, looking very nervous, no wonder he would be like this, the person who was going to marry this time had created a heinous case in the Empire, although the final punishment made this matter unresolved, but if one of the victims changed from an ambitious prince to an emperor who controlled a qiē, it would be a different matter.
"His Majesty the Emperor is not a person who holds grudges, but it doesn't mean that he sees it every day, and he can't remember hatred!" The young man sighed deeply, looked out the window with deep eyes, and said slowly, "The five-year lockdown period is coming, and the family does not dare to take such a risk to let her continue to stay in Kyoto! Everyone has a headache, and finally thought about it, it is better to marry far away and get ......"
The young man turned his head, and saw Presnafa, who was leaning against the wall, quietly moving towards the door, preparing to anoint the soles of his feet, and hurriedly shouted, "What are you running, isn't it just to introduce a target?
Presnaffa turned his head with an ugly face, and said in a trembling voice, "You also know how much impact that incident had on the emperor's majesty, until now there is no crown prince in the empire, every time this matter is mentioned, the emperor's face is like a slash, the emperor has said at the beginning, whoever dares to marry Her Royal Highness the princess, will kill his whole family! Don't leave the chicken and dog! Don't think about it in the empire" "Or, throw her to the Slavs in the northwest?" The young man touched his chin with a deep face, and then shook his head. No, the Slavs know her, and they probably kill her if they are caught, and she is also the first person in the family to be crowned a princess, so it's a pity to die like this!" )
