Seaberton came to me with a wine glass, and then handed it to me: "Nia, the coming-of-age ceremony will be in two days, and I will tell you some things clearly." ”

"Well, Uncle Seabedton. I took it and was answered, "Say it." ”

"That's right, the coming-of-age ceremony in two days, including you, a total of five nobles will be coming of age, and you should be well aware of this. Seaberton's eyes sharpened a little, turned and walked towards the barrel, and asked the maid for two more glasses, "This is not a very good thing for the Empire, as time goes by, there is not much land that can be held now." ”

Seaberton paused for a moment before he spoke: "The reason why I am telling you this is because this time His Majesty only intends to take out four pieces of land!"

"Four pieces?" "What's going on?" Five new nobles, four pieces of land, don't look at it as just one less, but land is very important to any nobleman, especially the new nobles! It took 16 years to grow into an adult, in order not to enjoy the fief that he had acquired at the moment of recognition?

"Haha, don't worry, Nia, of course I'm not saying that if you can't get the land, you're going to be my son-in-law, I have to help you get the richest piece of the land. Seaberton laughed and said, "Originally, the central belt of Dama Province was the fief of the Lawrence family, and this time I have to take it back to you." ”

After my father died, no one in our family was able to stand up and take on this place, and slowly the Dharma Province became a place where no one belonged, and there was no way, I have disappeared for five years, I can't jump out at this time and take the Dharma Province as my own, right?

Fortunately, in the past five years, my family's land in Dama Province has not been divided, and even the entire province is almost not a fief of the nobles, five years ago the war destroyed this province, originally the nobles in this land will only be worse than our family, the battle died in battle, and the living are like me who can't come back, unwilling to come back, for the nobles, what is more important than glory?

"First of all, Uncle Seaberton, I want to thank you for being able to say this for me. I stood up and gave a salute to my chest.

"Haha, that's what I'm supposed to do. Seaberton laughed as he handed a freshly filled wine glass to Joyce.

"Secondly......" I paused and then turned my head to look at Hilmy, Hilmy's eyes were also full of loss at this moment, and he couldn't help but lower his head and didn't dare to look at me again.

Guilty, I'm a scumbag. I shook my head with a wry smile, then took a deep breath to make my attitude firmer: "I've discussed this matter carefully with Hilmy, and we don't plan to get married. ”

"Oh...... Huh?" Seaberton didn't react just now, but the next moment he heard it clearly, his face instantly froze, "You...... What did you just say?"

"I'm sorry Uncle Seabedon, but if this is the case...... I don't think the major event of marriage should be determined by parents for life, just say it...... I already have someone I like, and I already have a lifelong partner before I met Hilmy. I turned to look at Seabton, his face turned red from drinking, or because he was angry, but I could see that his arm seemed to be shaking, and the silver wine glass in his hand was slightly deformed, and the rippling red liquid splashed out slightly.

"Nia, do you mean you're going to abandon my daughter!" Sibberton raised his other hand, pointed his finger at me, and shouted, "I said you don't go too far!

"Uncle Seaberton, I know. "I like Hilmy too, but I prefer the girl I'm thinking about day and night, and for that reason I can't marry Hilmy." ”

"Stupid!" Sieberton shouted, slamming the glass in his hand at me!

"Ahh

"Father, what are you doing!, Nia, he's talking to you!" Hilmy rushed at me in a hurry and grabbed me and said, looking at me anxiously, reaching out and touching the position on my head that had just been smashed, tears quickly appeared in his eyes, "Is it okay?

"It's nothing that a monster like cotton can't kill me. I smiled wryly and pulled Hilmy's away, "I'm sorry Hilmy, but like I said...... I ......"

"Don't say it, I don't like to hear what I said, it's enough to hear your apologies. Hilmi said as he slowly closed his eyes.

"Hilmy, get out of the way!"

"I don't! you are not allowed to hit him!" Hilmy turned sharply and shouted at Seaburton.

"You ......," Seaberton choked back on the expletives he was about to utter, after all, it was his daughter, "he's done this to you!"

"I already knew! This is the result of our discussion! It wasn't his decision alone!"

"Stupid!" Seaberton finally shouted, "Joyce, take your sister away!"

"Uh-huh......" Joyce walked towards us, and Hilmy did look at her sister with a look of resistance, but she was overwhelmed and subconsciously leaned towards me.

...... I slowly watched Joyce walk over step by step, then reached out and grabbed Hilmy's arm: "Come with me." ”

"I don't!"

"Hilmy, don't upset your father. Joyce said, then shifted her gaze slightly to mine, "You'll regret it." ”

"I've been regretting it......," I said bitterly, and patted Hilmy on the shoulder, "Don't worry, I can't die, go ahead, get some sleep, and tomorrow you might see me drinking at the table with your father." ”

"You Y(*^%*!, who's going to drink with you!...... Philipton!" Seaberton spat out a swear word that was not very clear, probably because he rarely used these words as a nobleman, and he was a little rusty, but he still spit out these words in a swarm.

In the end, Hilmy was dragged away by Joyce, and the frightened maids were called out by Joyce, and in the end there were only two of us left in the room, the angry Siberton Meda, and I, Nia Lawrence.

After a while, Seaburton just kept his breathing rapidly, stared at me deadly, and didn't say a word, but I was the first to speak to break the silence: "Uncle Seaberton, can you dissipate your breath?"

"Hmph, you bastard, scum!" Sieberton scolded, "still an idiot!

"That's why I say I regret saying that. I shook my head and said, "I have someone in my heart...... So I can only apologize to her. ”

"Get out of here!" Sieberton pointed to the door, "I'm not welcome here!"

"Uncle Seaberton, don't say that, it's my fault, but ......" I slowly raised my head and showed a cold gaze, "this thing is also in your heart, right?"

"You ......," Seaberton shouted, then immediately sank and took a slight step back, "You know the situation?"

"I'm about to fit into this circle, so I don't want to do my homework so well. I smiled and said, "Some time ago, you and Miss Joyce went to the Biel Empire together, presumably to discuss the wedding." ”

Seaberton looked at me with a grim face: "It's really terrifying, worthy of being a person who can defeat the defenders of the empire, you already know so much after just a day in the imperial capital, your intelligence officers are really hardworking, or...... Someone is helping you?"

"You and I are both understanding people, and there is no one else here, so let's open it up. ”

"Very well, Narnia, you can leave my mansion, don't appear in front of Hilmi's eyes again, I will find him a man who is ten thousand times better than you. Seaberton said sharply, "Nia, although you are the son of Kadifen, you can't be emotional in this circle, this is a world of the jungle, your strength and background are too weak, you can't stay in the imperial capital for long, I am a father, I can't give my daughter to someone like you, besides, you just said that the first in your heart is not Hilmy, then I can't give her to you." ”

"Papa-" I clapped my hands and laughed, "yes, you can't be emotional. I didn't expect you to be able to execute it so well. ”

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have sat in the position of a duke. Seaberton smiled and walked over to me, "Please leave tomorrow, for Hilmy's sake." ”

"I don't have to be tomorrow morning, I'll get out of here tonight. I said, "Then the eldest prince Elliott, he shouldn't welcome me, right?"

"That's up to him, I think he's very welcoming to you, and as long as you can help us with all your might, our personal grudges can be put aside. Sieberton slowly approached me, then patted me on the shoulder, "Go change your clothes, it's a pity for this fabric." ”

"It's not a pity, it's like you've just come back from fighting the enemy. I chuckled, "As for the fabric, it's okay, it's yours." ”

"Oh?" Seaberton laughed, "then I don't have to feel guilty, it's all right, I'll just ask the maid to help you get ready." ”

This old guy ...... I smiled at him, turned and walked towards the door, pushed it open, and I squeezed straight inside, heading for my room without looking back.

Just then, the door on the other side slowly opened, and Hilmy and Joyce, who had just left, stepped out of it.

"How's that...... Father ......"

"Nothing, well handled. Seaberton looked deeply at the passage, sighed and said, "From today onwards, completely cut off relations with him, he already knows what you did." ”

When Hilmy heard this, her body trembled deeply, and her hands only hugged her sister Joyce's arm, and two circles of tears welled up in her eyes, but she suppressed them stubbornly, trying not to let them flow.
