Chapter 217: Showdown

"So I told White that everything should be as you want, and that nothing should interfere with you.

You protected Bruce, that's your brother, and I won't praise you.

You have made yourself a target for the other party, this is for the honor of the family, I praise you, but this is still what you should do.

You've made old Roland's grandson a wreck, and I'm finally a little satisfied.

I wasn't really happy until you told me about your plans and asked me to send Jones to work with you.

It's not just that you really feel like a member of the Snape family, but more importantly, you show your heart.

You want to eradicate the roots, you want to leave no troubles, you show the most vicious and true side of your heart in front of me, let me know what kind of person my little grandson is, and where his bottom line is.

That's all that matters to me, you know?"

Philip lowered his head, trying to calm his somewhat dazed brain a little in order to grasp the meaning of Brad's short words.

After a long time, he nodded, but did not speak.

He wondered when exactly it began, his own change.

It should be after awakening, as his ability grows, his ambition is also like a summer weed, growing and growing every day, becoming more and more like an adult in his previous life, rather than a simple teenager.

Brad touched Philip's head and said slowly: "Don't worry, I personally arranged that Jones will bury all the secrets in his heart until he will be taken to the grave in the future."

The dispatch I personally signed, and the cooperation of countless witnesses, at least in the southeast, in this high city, no one can find any clues.

Even if someone suspects, you are only in revenge and have made that secret known to the world.

You didn't make the explosives, so there's nothing to be afraid of. ”

Only then did Philip look up and ask, "How is the Blazer family now?"

Speaking of this, old Brad laughed out loud, and even choked on the cigar and coughed, and his big fan-like hands slapped on the back of the sofa and slammed, which showed how happy he was.

"The whole thing is now being investigated by the Knights of the General Temple, and the Chief Inquisitor is Paladin Hamilton, and they are moving fast.

That underground workshop was hung in the name of a distant relative of the Blazer family, and it was easy to find out about old Roland.

That old guy has now been suspended and imprisoned in a secret prison in the General Temple, there will be no public trial, and he will not have to come out in his life, like many people in history.

His son, William, has been removed from his position as brigade commander and sent back to the imperial capital to face investigation.

Even if he really didn't know it, no division of the empire would dare to hire him in this life.

Not to mention the grandson Steven, who has become a waste.

Daughter Mela has gone crazy since the disappearance of her son Wade, and her husband Dakker has committed suicide in prison.

The Blazers, it's over. ”

Hundreds of years of grudges rolled in Brad's mind, and his tone was not a little embarrassed except for excitement and relief, and he didn't say these words to Philip to himself.

A family of hundreds of years, in front of the thunder of the temple, is as fragile as a house made of paper, and a small spark is burned to ashes.

Philip also sighed, finally over, at least in the southeastern corner of the empire, to cut off the last trace of evil.

He wasn't without a hint of fear, but if he had to do it again, he would do it anyway.

Clearing his throat, he asked, "Bishop Melissa, what do you think about this?"

Old Brad smiled like a flower, and said, "Melissa is very indignant about the dynamite, but I see a smile in her eyes.

I can't guess what she thinks, but it looks like they're getting enough out of it.

Finally, she congratulated you on the honor you received and welcomed you at any time. ”

Now Philip is really relieved, for him, the Temple of Gaokan City is the most important thing for him.

Even if the rest of the temple wanted to deal with him, they couldn't bypass the temple of Gaokan City, and they had to be afraid of Melissa's existence.

He smiled and said to Brad, "Actually, I was still hesitating the day before I left, whether to do it or not.

But one person inadvertently told me something important that made me finally make up my mind. ”

"Who?"

"Princess of the Empire, Her Highness Sophia. ”

"Is that her? What did she tell you?"

"Because of my case, she has recently been very close to Bishop Ferdinand and has learned a lot about the temple.

More because she is royal, her views on certain things are much more intuitive than ours.

For example, the current supreme leader of the Imperial Capital Temple, Archbishop Brian, is a person from the Western Temple, and Melissa is not the same as Melissa, who is a descendant of the Southern Temple.

Moreover, Brian himself is inextricably linked to the Wardkud Empire, and is very unfriendly to the royal family of our Empire.

Therefore, this incident is likely to be a benefit for both the Empire and the Southern Temple, and the one who will eventually replace Brian must be the people of the Southern Temple. ”

Brad's brows furrowed, and he asked, "Why did the princess say this to you, you won't tell me that the rumors between you and her are true, and you won't tell her about it, right?"

Philip smiled like a weasel who had stolen a hen, and his big blue eyes were bent into a slit.

It wasn't until Brad laughed a little impatiently that he explained, "No, how could I tell her such a confidential thing, I can tell the difference."

As for what she told me, it was because all the news in the newspapers was true.

Your grandson seems to have really deceived a princess. ”

Brad didn't believe it, he had heard about Princess Sophia's testimony in court, but he didn't believe a word of the gossip news in the newspapers.

Even if Philip admitted it to his face, he still had some doubts that each of these royal heirs was a demon who played with people's hearts, and his grandson was still so young that he could not easily fall into the erotic trap of the other party.

Philip motioned to Brad not to worry, poked his head out, and whispered in his ear: "Although there is less love between us for the time being, she is very sincere.

This is because the little princess who is pure and innocent in your eyes has ambitions that no man can match, and she is determined to become the first empress in the history of the Wardsmann Empire.

Not only that, but if there really is a day when her dream comes true, she also wants to unify the three empires and restore the former glory of the Ward Empire. ”

Philip's words hit Brad's ears like a thunderbolt, so that he didn't react for a long time.

It sounds like it's supposed to be a joke between kids, but Philip says it sincerely.

Thinking of the prejudice of the Great Emperor Sun against Wuxun and the hypocritical short-sightedness of the Second Emperor Sun, he suddenly felt that this ideal was not so outrageous.

He took a deep breath and said solemnly to Philip: "Tell me everything you know, and don't hide anything." ”

Philip had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, and hurriedly explained the whole process of the two getting acquainted in detail, even including some of Sophia's ideas and some of his suggestions.

Of course, he will not say the secret of his soul, but only a passing one.

Even so, such a huge amount of information made Brad's eyes widen.

He pondered for a long time, until Philip was sleepy, and then he said slowly: "To be honest, I hesitated to choose the heir of the Wild Lion Family.

But for the sake of the family's future, it's nothing to let Bruce be wronged, I'm sure he'll understand.

After all, your existence is too stressful for him.

But now, I'm even more convinced that letting Bruce inherit the glory of the Lion is the right choice.

And you, will go out of your own way.

I have to say that your ideas are radical, but they are very incendiary.

Everyone can see that the entire empire is decaying, the imperial capital is faster, and Gaokan City is a little slower, but it is all rotting.

The emperor is old, and so are we.

We all know that the times will usher in changes, and we can only make its pace as slow and slow as possible.

However, what you said is not enough, and the Lion family alone is not enough.

It's still early, and to get my support, you need to prove yourself, and the princess needs to prove that she has the ability to do so, not a naΓ―ve joke between children.

Your joining the Temple is almost a foregone conclusion, and when you become a paladin one day, even if it's just the lowliest, I'll give you everything that is rightfully given to you.

So, you're going to speed up, my grandson.

I'm 80 years old and I don't have much time left for you. ”

Philip smiled and said, "I promise you, grandpa, I don't know if she will be the queen or not."

But I will soon let you see the day I became a paladin.

And, although I'll be a little slower, Sophia will soon have her first chance to prove it. ”

"What chance?" asked Brad.

Philip said word for word, "The Empire, and even the first knightly order in the history of the Ward Clan, which consisted entirely of women.

The armed forces directly under the princess, with a configuration of 5,000 people, are all built according to the standards of the Royal Knights.

No matter where the princess marries in the future, these people are part of her dowry, and their only mission is to protect the princess's safety, even if she fights to the last person.

Now that the personnel have been selected, only training and testing remains, and we will experience them in the territory of the empire in one year at the earliest, or two years at the latest. ”

Brad gasped and was about to argue how His Majesty the Emperor Charles could agree to such a ridiculous plan.

But suddenly it stopped again, for he remembered His Majesty Emperor Charles in his youth, who had told him the same dream, a grand dream that seemed unattainable.

Thinking of this, Brad had some guesses in his heart, and couldn't help but say, "Your courage is really too big. ”

Philip didn't refute, just smiled and closed his eyes, he was too sleepy.
