Chapter 527: 'Care' from a Competitor
Waters' affection does not seem to be affected by those two sneezes, and he is still going on with his 'performance':
"I used to hear people say: once people get old, they always unconsciously fall into memories!"
"When I was younger, I didn't think much of it, but over the years, as I've gotten older, I've found that it makes a fucking sense!" Waters had just said he couldn't, but he suddenly grabbed the bottle on the table and poured himself a large glass of wine.
"The other day, I stumbled upon the incident when our brother hid in his aunt's carriage and slipped out of the palace when he was a child!
"How can you forget jì?!"
"On that occasion, the Emperor punished us, and now that I think about it, it must have been to warn the other brothers, 'rewarding' us forty lashes. ”
"You took ten lashes for me to take care of me!" and I was back in bed within a few days, but you were lying in bed for a month!" said Dennis's eyes.
"But it was precisely because of that time that we became the brothers with the best feelings among the princes! Now think about it, my ten lashes are worth it!"
"Besides, I was the mastermind that time, and I deserved to be beaten more!" Waters smiled and patted Dennis on the shoulder after pouring another glass of wine for himself and Dennis.
"Big brother, since then, I have secretly made a vow in my heart: I will be your follower for the rest of my life! This vow has never changed to this day!" Dennis said, rising from his chair with a little excitement.
"Big brother. Even if you let me go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire, go to the soup and fight the fire, the little brother will not give up!"
"That's what I said about it, it's serious! That's not what I meant when I came to you for a drink today! You sit down first. Listen to me tell you slowly. Waters laughed as he pushed Dennis back into his seat.
"I'm out of the old man's position!" Waters grabbed the bottle and took a sip of himself. He sighed deeply.
"Big brother!"
"You don't have to comfort me, I know my situation very well! Although my father is not young, he can continue to hold the power of Dongyu for ten years in his current state!"
"How old will I be in ten years? I'll be over half a hundred years old!" Waters said with a slight pause.
"Regardless of whether my father will like me in the end, I have sunset in energy and body, what might I do at that time?!"
"During this time, after thinking about it, I finally made a decision: I will push you to the top with all my might!"
"To be honest, it was a very difficult decision for me! I'm still a little unwilling!"
"But after today's incident, the last trace of disillusionment in my heart about my father was shattered, and I made up my mind. ”
"My reason is very simple: we are the closest brothers! I can't accept anyone else in that position! I can only accept you!"
Actually, Dennis probably guessed what Waters was thinking, but he didn't expect him to say it so directly. For a moment, Dennis was a little stunned, and he didn't know how to respond to Waters' confession.
"At that time, I'm just afraid that I'll be older! I just want to be able to be an idle prince in peace, and I don't dare to have any other ideas!"
I have to say. Waters has an extraordinary talent for acting, and at his age, he actually said these words to the feeling of the twilight of a hero!
It's just that Dennis knows his big brother too well, and he doesn't believe that Waters will be because of his age at all. Completely give up the fight for the throne of Dongwoo!
"Big brother, you're too modest! You might as well go out and ask, people who don't know you well think you're only in your early thirties at most. No one will believe that you are so much bigger than me!"
"Ten years from now. If we stand together again, people will think that I am the one who is the old!"
"Big brother. Don't tease me here!Drink, drink!" Dennis was ready to repeat his old trick, first 'pouring himself down'.
"Fifth brother, isn't there any room for negotiation in this matter?" Waters turned grim and reached out to grab Dennis's wrist.
"Big brother, I know myself very well! with my ability, it is simply not enough to control the entire Dongyu Empire!"
"You are my eldest brother, I won't hide it from you! In the dead of night, I did have such fantasies. ”
No sooner had Waters looked at him than Dennis changed the subject:
"It's just that whenever I think of the heavy state affairs now, the intrigue of the ministers, and the mutual crushing of the interests of various factions, I am discouraged!"
"I just want to do my duty now, do more for the country, and share the worries of my father. As for the future, let's be honest: I can't think about it!" Dennis said with a smile and a wave of his hand at Waters.
"We can't even pass the current level, how can we talk about the future?!" Hearing Dennis say this, Waters' heart moved, and he immediately sighed softly.
"You don't mean Ed, do you? I still know a little bit about him, no, no!" Dennis didn't pretend to be confused this time, and directly said what Waters was thinking.
"No, you're here today, I really didn't expect that for the sake of an Edred, my father would even disdain the Ziqing Empire! I see, the old man has already begun to think about that!" Waters looked around and carefully lowered his voice.
"Can you still believe the words of that woman Gladys?
"I've read all her accusations against Ed, and I can't believe that he would do such a rebellious thing, even from what I know about him. Then the news from Ziqing also confirmed my previous judgment that Gladys was simply confusing right and wrong and reversing black and white. ”
"What makes me even more angry is that she will take revenge! This woman really has a femme fatale!"
"I believe that my father also learned about this qiē, so he will say today's words!"
"As for Gladys's so-called hint of 'subordinating Ziqing to Dongyu', I didn't even pay attention to it!"
"When she was a child, she could not admit the promises she made in front of many brothers and sisters, not to mention the hints in the book!
"No matter what you say, I must not watch that trouble return to Filano City and become a roadblock for you and my brother!" Waters lost his patience to continue to go around with Dennis, and his face turned cold, and he said the real purpose of coming here today.
"Well, isn't that?"
"Fifth brother, don't worry, I will never involve you in this matter. I just hope you'll give me some general information about his general location!" Seeing that Dennis seemed a little tempted, Waters immediately added.
"Abraham, if you were Dennis, would you accept this construction of Waters?" At this time, in the study of the sixth prince, Oliel put the same question in front of Abraham.
"I'm going to be impressed!"
"Why? I thought you'd just say 'no'!" Olier didn't expect Abraham to give such an answer, and his eyes were instantly filled with doubt.
"Because once we embark on the road of competing for the throne, there are only two kinds of people left in our eyes: competitors and non-competitors!"
"No matter how much the fifth brother has gained because of Charity, this can't change the fact that Ed is his strong competitor!"
"From another point of view, with the current status of the fifth brother, Ed's help to him will be less and less. If the fifth brother still doesn't express his will and draw a line with Charity, the people around him will probably have some ideas. They will even be shaken because the fifth brother's goal is not clear! This is definitely a problem that the fifth brother has to consider. ”
"Judging from the current situation, now is indeed a good opportunity to get started!"
"So you think Dennis will nod to Waters?"
"This is exactly what I want to see!"
"Happy to see it happen?"
"Hit your opponent hard!" Abraham shook his head.
"Is there any difference?" Oliel really didn't understand the difference between the two sentences.
"If I'm not mistaken, do you think it's Charity who will be unlucky this time?"
"Intentions or not! Waters has a lot of masters, is there anything to doubt about this?"
"How do you know that Ed must have no intention?"
"There are many masters under Waters, and the people around Lovely are not vegetarians! Don't forget, the last time the boss sent people to attack Ed's Grand Duke's mansion, didn't they only end up in vain!"
"I don't know if you have noticed something, Elizabeth of the Elven Race has not appeared in the Youlan Continent for a long time. Don't you think there's something wrong with that?"
"You doubt?"
"It's not just suspicion anymore! As far as I can guess, nine out of ten Elizabeth is injured, and it's not a minor injury!"
"With Elizabeth's strength, will it be easy for someone who can hurt her?"
"Ed has always been cautious, even if he doesn't get news from here, he won't come back without scruples and swagger! Just imagine, if he transferred such a top master to his side, how could ordinary people hurt him in the slightest!"
"What do you think Ed will do if he finds out that someone is trying to do something against him?"
"You've also read the information that hasn't been confirmed yet, if it's true, do you think the boss still has the possibility of hurting him?"
"Are you inclined to believe that Ed actually crossed the Essex Mountains?" said Oliel, who heard Abraham's words, and couldn't help but show a look of surprise on his face. (To be continued......)
