Chapter 293: Dinner Together (2)
I smiled and picked up the noodles again and ate them. And Shirmi seems to be slightly relieved, she is not like me who is currently in contact with the problem of power, so Shirmmy does not realize for the time being that if I regret my marriage, I may stand on the opposite side of her family, and now I can naturally rest assured.
"But...... You also said he might beat you up......"
"I don't know what it will be, if he really beats me, it's my fault, I lied to his baby daughter, that is, you, can't you let his old man vent it." I said casually as I ate the noodles, and now my main focus was on eating, and then I took another glass and swallowed it.
"So you deserve it. Hilmy laughed, then shook the glass in his hand, "Nia, what do you think will happen to Talilu now?
I paused, stopped eating, slowly put down the plate, smiled for a while and continued to eat, while saying, "What, are you in a relationship with your rival?"
"That's my good sister, too, and even you can't separate our friendship. Hilmi said angrily, "How is she doing?"
"I didn't go to see her. I put on a helpless look and said, "Time is pressing, if you go to the elf clan and have to entangle with Elenolls for a while, it will be difficult to see Talilu, after the coming-of-age ceremony, I will take my private army to snatch Talilu back, even if I set foot on Elenolls and their elven village, I will bring Talilu back." ”
"Hehehe, such a happy fellow. Shilmi chuckled and glanced at me, "So where have you been in this short period of time? You and Ewinni should have returned to the Empire earlier, why did you come later than we did?"
"I don't have a place to go to the imperial capital, I haven't been to the imperial capital before, I don't know where the count's palace of my Lawrence family is, and after so many years, I guess it's long gone, I just want to wait for you to arrive first, I'm going to the imperial capital, and I estimate the time I'll go around Golfito Province now, and go to see the place I've been staying in the past five years." I waved my hand and said, "Let's see how everyone is doing this year." ”
"Eh, it's the Blood Shadow Adventure Party, I remember there's another girl named Catherine who has a good relationship with you. Hilmy smiled and asked me suspiciously, "How are they doing?"
"Hmm...... It's good, it's a good time, and it's still going on with their adventurous life. I smiled and looked at Hilmy, who was slightly stunned and frowned.
"How?"
"Nope. Hilmy smiled, and at this time a small voice came out of the flowers, look closely at it is a hamster, it is the candy beast I caught in the Biel Empire, I named it Cotton, don't look at it Now it is only the size of a palm, its other form has been a hamster that has been fifty meters old and I have been in a desperate situation several times!
"Cotton. "I was delighted at the sight of it, I hadn't seen it in a long time, I had asked Hilmy to take care of it since the last battle at the arsenal in Biel, and then I had been separated from the rest of us since I met the pirate Davis at sea, and I hadn't seen this little guy since.
I crouched down and stretched out my hand, and the little thing quickly crawled up to my hand, rubbing against my hand vigorously, and then glared at me with disgruntled eyes in it.
"Don't be angry, isn't this in front of your eyes again?" I touched its head, and then asked Hilmy, "Why did you bring this guy here, aren't you afraid that it will suddenly grow bigger in the middle of the night and crush all your Meda mansions?"
"How can you be afraid, the master is not here, if this is really the case, there will be a claim. Hilmihaha laughed, "This guy has been running into the grass here, and I don't know what to do, probably because he noticed your presence and ran out, otherwise I wouldn't have come out no matter how I called it just now." ”
"Hehe, I guess it's the scent of lavender that attracts it. I laughed and shook my hand, "Come cotton, I'm going to eat, you run over my head yourself." ”
"Squeak—" Cotton twisted her waist and threw herself up on my hand, then rolled over her punch and then ran quickly, crawling down my arm to my shoulder.
Then I picked up the food again, ate a few bites and asked Hilmy, "By the way, Hilmy, do you know the situation in politics?"
"If you know a little bit, politics is not as harmonious as we are. Hilmi waved his hand helplessly, "There must be mutual positions between each family, it may be one or many, and the most direct situation should be the forces of the various families uniting." ”
You continue. I said, chewing on my food.
"Hmm...... The current emperor, Matthew Elmi is now high in his death, and the strength in the political arena is actually dominated by Matthew's character as the prince, so each family is centered on the prince to unite and become a force, and when a new emperor needs to be established in the future, the prince he supports will be pulled to the top, then those united families are the winners. ”
"The emperor seems to have three sons now. ”
"It's three, but in terms of power, there are only the eldest prince Elliott Ellman and the second prince Sam Ellman, as for the third prince, then don't worry about it, you don't have to care about him, the third prince West Ellman, he only has the people his father arranged for him since he was a child, and those people are now swinging between his two brothers, after all, West is not a possible guy. "And the two princes, the eldest prince Elliott, are in the camp that your father and my father are in the same camp, right?"
"Not really, since they were able to marry us from a young age, then we must have a good relationship with each other, and we also learned about our father's relationship from Uncle Keros. I said, "So the eldest prince is more suitable for me?"
"Of course, to tell you the truth, the Weaver family is the people in the hands of the second prince, and they are all our political enemies and your father's political enemies, no matter what, it can't be suitable for you. Hilmi said, with a look of concern, "So...... I'm more worried about my father's side, in case he gets angry......"
"No, Hilmy, no amount of anger will push me, the son of the ancients, into the thorn bush. I said with a reassuring gesture, and in my heart for the third prince really made me very admired, which guy, maybe except for his cronies around him, no one knows that he is ready to go! I don't know that he is actually a little competitive, I don't know what this prince wants to do, but to be so forbearing, it is very terrible.
"Hilmy, are you optimistic about the eldest prince?"
"Of course, who in the entire political arena is now more advantageous than the eldest prince?" said Hilmy, pouring twice as much wine, and then frowning slightly, "What?
"Hmm...... His personal strength is very strong, and his resourcefulness is not bad, but the advantage is not the strongest in my opinion, if you have to say the advantage, it is the second prince. I said, shaking my glass, the silver glass stained with my fingerprints, but still glowing silver in the moonlight.
"Second prince, how is it possible?"
"His strength is not very far from the eldest prince, but he is a short prince, so he has a big advantage. I smiled and Hilmy was puzzled.
"Let me remind you, you have neglected a third prince. I explained, "Although the third prince has a bad reputation and his power is so small that it can be ignored, the people in his hands are not fools, waiting to serve an incompetent prince? Before fighting for power, if they are connected with the second prince, their strength will be at least equal to that of the eldest prince, or even surpass that of the eldest prince, so that as long as they win in the end, the third prince will be easily solved by the second prince." ”
"Advantage, the second prince is the best at present. "I drank the wine on the table and said, it must be an indisputable fact that the third prince and the second prince will surpass the eldest prince since they are united, the third prince has means in his hands, and the second prince and the third prince are stronger or weaker, this is not what I can understand at present, on the bright side, the second prince is the best now.
Hilmi asked with some concern, "Which side are you going to be on, Narnia?"
"Don't worry, I can't go to the second prince, he still has the people of the Weaver family in his hands, if nothing else, it is expected to stand with your father." I patted her on the shoulder and laughed and said, "I hope your father won't be angry when he hears the news of my repentance, otherwise I will join the camp of the eldest prince, and if he drives me into the hands of the third prince, then my future will be worrying." ”
"Hehe, if you are driven to the side of the third prince, you deserve it. Hilmi heard the meaning of the joke, and also joked at me, after all, the reputation of the third prince is poor, and it is really impossible for Hilmi to see me in the past, but she didn't know that I had just been invited by the third prince this morning......
I shook off the conversations, then peeled off one of the lobsters on the table, and said to Hilmy, "Eat something too, look at you, that's what wine is like a drink." ”
"I didn't call you out just to eat...... "Hilmi didn't seem to be paying much attention to what he was eating, and put the wine glass in his hand on the table.
I ate it to myself and asked, "What is that for?"
"That's what you started with......" Hilmi glanced at me angrily, then changed his face and said, "Nia, I've been preparing for a day, but I want to get more compliments from you, can't you give me a little bit of evaluation of my dress?"
"Ah, it's beautiful. I said for a moment, then turned around and ate again.
"End...... Finished?" asked Hilmy, surprised.
"Uh. I paused and looked back again, "Perfect for you, um......"
"Finished?"
"It's over. I nodded in acknowledgment of her doubts.
"Damn ...... you"
