Chapter 275 [Du Wei's Marriage Proposal]
Du Wei never imagined that the Rollin family would have such a relationship with the imperial family's scheming techniques.
Judging from Philip's remarks, this guy is worthy of being a disciple recommended by scholars from Blue Ocean University, and he really has a deep knowledge of the emperor's art and power scheming - although when he first came to the northwest, he acted like a rookie. But that's all because of lack of experience, and in fact, his theoretical foundation is still very deep trained by the blue ocean. Otherwise, he would not have won Du Wei's trust in just one year with his performance.
Although Du Wei is smart and well-read, after all, he has been "self-taught" since he was a child.
What's more, it actually involved the Rollin family itself! If Semele's husband, the husband of that great-great-great-grandmother, died a somewhat unusual death...... In that case, it is absolutely impossible for the Rollin family to say half a word about such a thing! Du Wei has naturally not heard the slightest rumor since he was a child. The documents and materials in the family are impossible to have half a sentence of record!
Philip said these old things about the Rollin family, Du Wei really hadn't heard of it. It turned out that the documents within the family that he read at home, mentioning the marriage with the Augustinian royal family, were all explained in a glorious tone, only saying that the Rollin family was valued by the royal family, and it was the glory of the Rollin family. It is also reflected in the position of the empire.
It's just that. This soft knife cuts through the body. What does it taste like? Du Wei never thought of this layer.
'M afraid...... Only now in Rollin's hometown, my father. I know it.
Thinking of this, what did Philip say to the crowd. Du Wei couldn't listen anymore. Semel sighed in his head. It seems to be full of infinite meaning. So that Du Wei couldn't even bear to think about it. Don't dare to think about it......
Just tried to communicate with Semel again and again, but the woman no longer gave any response.
She's just a magical creature. But it's becoming more and more like Semel himself......
Philip is conferring with the generals. Seeing Du Wei wander. I couldn't help but close my mouth and looked at Du Wei for a while. Only then did he call in a low voice: "My lord." Lord Duke?"
"Huh?" said Du Wei frowned. Come back to your senses. Glanced at Philip. He looked at the generals again. Forced to smile: "What Philip said just now is Jīng Cai." I was fascinated by what I heard. He groaned. "Philip." Since according to your analysis. This royal marriage. It's a trap ......"
"Yes, that's right!" Dardanelle was the first to call. He thought about Du Wei wholeheartedly: "Since it's a trap! This Augustinian family. It's too dangerous! Now the Duke has no dissenting intentions. They're going to use this trick on the Duke!"
Philip smiled wryly. glanced at Du Wei. Du Wei understood. With a wave of his hand, Dardanelles stopped his intentions. Then he smiled and said, "It's not a yīn risk." It's just that he's an emperor. The art of mastery. Historically, it has been nothing more than a means of differentiation and balance. It doesn't matter if I have a different heart or not. As an emperor, it is impossible to watch a person with too much power under his subordinates. And indifferent. This is not counted as the danger of His Highness Chen. It's just convention. In his position. It's the right thing to do. If he allows his subordinates to appear like this, the ministers do nothing. It's stupidity. ”
These generals. There is no ambiguity in fighting. But when it comes to these political schemes. Not anymore. The only one is a little out of sè. On the contrary, it is two hundred and five generals. After all, Longbottom suffered from the political struggle back then. I've only been in prison for many years, and I've finally gotten some tips. Although it may not be on jīng. But it also gets to the point. He grinned. He smiled and looked at Du Wei and then at Philip. said: "In this case, the marriage talk has been tricked again." No marriage words. and lest the royal family be suspicious...... Seems contradictory. But since Mr. Philip can analyze it so well, it is true. Then there must be a solution. ”
Look at the fat man's eyes. It clearly means that this kind of intrigue is exactly what you staff are best at......
Philip Ping rì li xìng zi is very peaceful. Be cautious and careful. He is polite to everyone, although he is Du Wei's chief staff. But there was never a shelf. So he and Du Wei are a general. The relationship is also good. At this moment, everyone's eyes were on this young staff. Waiting for him to say something.
Philip was still young after all. Full. I still couldn't help blushing slightly. He coughed before he said, "Everyone." And the Duke. I just said that. Marriage with royalty. Personally, I'm against it. Although in the short term. It is an improvement to adult prestige. But...... Hey. Say something disrespectful. Presumably you, Lord Duke. And I don't want it in the coming decades. When I go to bed at night, there is a Chen prince eyeliner sleeping next to me. ”
Du Wei smiled faintly: "You can say it directly, no need to detour." ”
"I want to win the prince of Xinchen. It's inevitable! You don't have to. Fortunately. This regent really thinks highly of the Duke. And it seems. I trust the Duke in my heart. It's also very deep. fei - 腾 - wen - learn to play by hand. So. Is it proposed this time...... It can be regarded as a relatively peaceful means. There is no compulsion. Otherwise. If you wait for the Duke to arrive at Dìdū. On top of the banquet. In front of many wealthy nobles and ministers, then mention it publicly...... On that occasion. If he opened his mouth. Even if you are not happy in your heart, you will definitely not be able to refuse!"
Du Wei thought for a moment. Indeed, this is the truth. If Prince Chen really did that. In public. The de facto ruler of the empire offered his marriage to him if he refused in public. That is tantamount to embarrassing the other party in public, which is really inappropriate.
"So, fortunately, Prince Chen doesn't seem to mean so resolutely, or rather, we can't guess his intentions. It's just that his approach also gives us a chance. I mean. My lord...... At all costs. Before this return to dìdū. You must make a marriage!"
Du Wei's eyes widened: "What...... You want me to get married right away?"
Then he shook his head again and again: "No, no, this is absolutely not good!"
In Du Wei's heart, now he thinks that he can accept it in his heart and can stay with him for the rest of his life, and there is only one person like Vivian. The other women, whether it was Mrs. Liszt or Angel, Du Wei couldn't accept it.
But now to marry Vivien as a wife?
After all, Du Wei is a person from a previous life, although fifteen-year-old little Lori is very seductive and cute. But it really made Du Wei push down a fifteen-year-old girl who didn't even have a mature body. He really couldn't do that kind of beastly thing - not to mention that this girl was really fond of his own love.
Fifteen years old. In the world of my previous life, I didn't even have an ID card!
Philip looked at Du Wei's expression, although Du Wei didn't say who this "no" meant, but most of the people in the room knew that the future Duchess must be the simple and lovely female magician.
Philip laughed, "My lord." I didn't say I wanted you to get married right away. After all, you are a duke. Even if a wedding were to take place, the Count and the Countess of Raymond would have to be invited from the plains of Lorraine. You can't do it in a hurry. I mean...... No need to get engaged. Make a decision on this marriage first, and walk the news out to the outside world, so that everyone knows that you are already that ...... Well. What was the name of that word you told me before...... By the way, precious flowers already have owners!
Du Wei smiled bitterly and said angrily: "Yes-the famous flower has a master."
"Yes, that's right, it's the master of the famous flower. Philip sneered: "I've been with you for a long time, and I'm really a little bit close to ink, and I also think the sentences that adults say in Ping Rì are very reasonable." ”
Du Wei sighed: "You mean, let me get engaged?"
"It's engagement. Hold an engagement ceremony first, it doesn't need to be too large-scale, but you can invite all the people with considerable status in the northwest to be present, and the news will be announced...... Hehe, first of all, now you are paying attention, I am afraid that not only the royal family, but also the Liszt family, as well as many wealthy families in Dìdū, as soon as this news comes out, at least many families will be able to break their minds, and you will save a lot of trouble. Second, to be honest, Miss Vivien has always lived in the Duke's Palace, although she and you are nominally the same teacher and disciple, but after all, you and she are both adults, so they live together without a name, and there is always gossip. ”
Someone next to him shook his head, and Dardanelle was the first to wonder: "But in this way, even if the Duke is engaged, the royal family may not be dead! Besides, although according to the imperial law, as a duke, he can only have one duchess, but he does not say that he is not allowed to marry a woman again." As a nobleman, it is common to have several wives. It's just that if the emperor, well, no, is the regent, and he must marry his sister to the duke, the identity of the royal princess will be suppressed, and the title of duchess will definitely be hers! Vivien, this girl, I Dardanelle likes it very much, she is alone, there is no one in this world except the duke, if the princess marries, her status as a wife will be robbed, and it will be too pitiful for her!"
Philip smiled lightly: "General Dardanelle, don't worry. That's the third benefit I'm going to talk about! The third benefit of being engaged to Miss Vivien...... That is, no matter how engaged the Duke and any other woman are, the royal family can still force the princess to us! But only Vivien, no one can compete with her for the status of the Duchess's wife! Don't forget what is the background of our Miss Vivian!"
He had a gentle smile on his face, but he immediately reminded everyone in the room.
Yes, what is Vivien's identity?
Not to mention anything else, there are still a few old monster-level people in the Magic Guild, and Vivian is a nominal senior brother!
And Vivien herself is still a genuine eighth-level magician!
An eighth-level great magician has a much more noble status than ordinary nobles! Not to mention that Vivian is still young, and it is not uncommon for her to advance to the ninth level in the future! The royal family will definitely not be willing to rashly offend a future continent's top powerhouse! Not to mention that this powerhouse also has a few old monster brothers with transcendent strength and strong influence?
"Even in the face of Madame Liszt, the princess was able to snatch the position of the wife. But the best thing is that only Mage Vivien. She is not a nobleman, but a magician! The magician's transcendent position makes the princess embarrassed to fight with her, since she can't fight, then with the status and position of the princess, if she can't be a wife, then it is impossible to deign to be the little wife of the duke. Otherwise, the face of the royal family will be gone...... Sure enough, it's wonderful!" Longbottom laughed, then walked up and patted Du Wei on the shoulder: "I said, boss." What are you waiting for, hurry to the garden and pick a handful of flowers. Let's propose to Vivien's little girl!"
Du Wei was ridiculed by these unscrupulous "uncles" for a while, and thought about it for a while. Now that's probably the best way to do it......
Moreover, Vivien, she was originally very fond of it, and the marriage proposal was not an outrageous thing.
Thinking of this, he simply gritted his teeth and threw the door out.
At night, in the garden. Du Wei clutched a handful of tulips tightly in his hand. These are the gardeners in the ducal palace in order to meet the title of "Duke of Tulip". Deliberately planted.
There are no roses here in the northwest, and Du Wei grabbed a handful of tulips. But he stood and paced back and forth in the garden, and did not go to the castle to find Vivien.
Why?
It's ridiculous...... Because, he ......
Well. Our demonic little duke suddenly felt very nervous!
That's right, it's nervousness. When facing the Dragon King of the Dragon Clan, he was never nervous. He wasn't nervous when he faced the demon servant. When he duel with Cuckold Gandorf, he was not nervous.
At this moment, when he was holding flowers in his hand and was about to propose to his beloved lovely son, Du Wei suddenly felt a little weak calf.
"Hmm...... What do you mean in a moment?" Du Wei coughed twice, facing the flowers. Say to yourself, "Hey, little silly girl. I think you look good. Just follow my young master...... Belch. Wouldn't that be too much to say that?" fei-teng-wen-xue shook her head and changed her tone to a gentle tone, "Dear Vivien. I've been very fond of you for a long time. And then in the future life. You want to be my wife. We've walked through the ...... hand in hand. No, no, it's too numb!"
Thought about it. He made a serious voice again: "Vivien." Tell you. I've got a very dangerous thing, it's a very troublesome thing, will you help me? Oh, willing? That's easy, you pack up and put on a new dress. Let's go down and get engaged right now...... Well, if I talk like that, will she kick me in anger?"
Du Wei scratched his scalp. A few lamentations. Because the hand is too much. Shake off all the flowers in a bouquet of flowers, and a handful of flower stems in his hand are bare. Shake didn't notice. I couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh and exclaimed, "Alas, how can I speak! Vivian, Vivian." How do I say it. You're willing to agree to my proposal......"
Du Wei said with emotion so loudly. Suddenly, there was a cowardice behind him. Let Du Wei's soul fly away.
"You, you...... What do you say? to me. I'm ...... Pg please...... Propose?"
Hearing this, Du Weizhen almost weakened his legs. Looking back, among the flowers. A pretty figure stood there, among the flowers, but more delicate than the flowers, on a small pink face. Full of redness, the big eyes that flickered, staring straight at Du Wei, in his eyes, three points of shyness, three points of joy and three points of surprise, not a little silly girl who is the little stammering Vivian?
Du Wei's mouth opened wide, the two of them just stared at me, I stared at you, and after a long time, Du Wei said hesitantly: "You...... Why are you here?"
Vivien suddenly lowered her head, a pair of small hands rubbed the corners of her clothes, and her voice was even more inaudible: "It's General Rumble Longbabaton, he, he, he said you, you look for me, in, here, let me get down, come down ......"
Du Wei suddenly felt a chill on his neck, turned his head to look to the left, and sure enough, he saw Longbottom, the two hundred and five generals, with a smile on his face, hiding among the flowers in the distance, laughing extremely obscene and ambiguous, and suddenly saw Du Wei looking here, his fat body could not hide among the flowers, so he could only laugh, stood up, and then laughed loudly: "Lord Duke, I will solve the big problem for you, and the rest is up to you!"
After speaking, he laughed and left, Du Wei was annoyed and ashamed, and couldn't help but raise his hand, and raised his middle finger fiercely at the old fat man in the distance.
Vivian suddenly raised her head, looked at Du Wei in a daze, and sighed faintly: "You...... You just said, is it true? You really ask, ask for a marriage proposal?"
At this point, Du Wei simply stiffened his scalp, gritted his teeth and stiffened Vivian's eyes: "Yes......! Ahem, will you marry or not?"
Vivien's face immediately showed happiness, but she was about to nod, but she was puzzled: "You...... You just looked at General Longbottom...... Like, very upset...... You, what is this gesture of yours?"
Du Wei glanced at his middle finger hand, quickly took it back, and said with a sneer: "This, you don't understand, I'm very happy, happy, and happy...... Gratitude again. Well, that's right, it's a gesture of gratitude, and I'm thankful to General Longbottom, and I didn't know how to say it, and he called you out, and when I said it, I really appreciate him. ”
Speaking of this, Du Wei suddenly saw Vivian's helpless appearance, and immediately scolded himself for being a fool, hurriedly walked up a few steps, gently grabbed Vivian's hand, and then took a deep breath and knelt down on one knee.
Vivian was startled and was about to dodge, but Du Wei stopped her and smiled: "Okay, the proposal should be like this, don't move." ”
"But, but, you are a duke, how, how can you kneel, kneel me......"
Du Wei smiled, grabbed Vivian's small hand for a few minutes, and then said softly: "Vivian, I don't know how to say it." It's just that you should understand my heart for you. You...... Uh, you...... Well, then, that ...... If you think I'm a good person, you, you, you'll follow me!"
Heaven testifies, the flamboyant, scheming, and scheming Duke Tulip, in this first marriage proposal in his life, is so clumsy, if it spreads, I don't know how many people's glasses will be broken.
Vivien's eyes were red, her big eyes were full of happiness and joy, and then she faintly panicked, and finally nodded her head gently, but she was too ashamed to speak, and just said "um" softly.
Du Wei didn't hear it, and was still a little anxious: "This ...... Vivien, you have something to say! OK or no...... You, can you give me an answer?"
But this Vivian was originally very thin-skinned and very shy, and she was anxious by Du Wei's question, and she became more and more shy in her heart, but she became more and more speechless, and finally twisted her body, and then raised her head with affection, pulled out the small hand held by Du Wei, and lifted it up...... And then......
And then......
erected a white, tender, and pretty ...... to Du Wei Middle finger.
Du Wei's face immediately collapsed: "This ...... What does that mean. ”
Vivien squirmed: "Didn't you just say that, that's what you mean, it's ...... I...... My heart is happy, joyful, and grateful......"
Du Wei: "............"
Good...... All right.
The first time I proposed in my life, the woman replied that I was a middle finger.
Belch...... Should we, Lord Duke, cry or laugh?
