The previous uneasiness was lifted. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Charlotte's army was so weak for a simple reason, because it wasn't an army at all, it was just a bunch of civilians with equipment on.

Thinking of this, Maithausen broke out in a cold sweat.

In the past, Maithausen didn't care about the lives of these civilians, but now it's different, when the whole country is shrouded in the horror of the demon king, these things that Maithausen didn't care about have begun to become important.

It's a special time, and the Demon King, who has become a monster, has divided the country into two parts - terrifying monsters and humans.

In such a situation, once it is divided into the side of the 'monster', Maithausen is not to mention the second prince's subordinates, even if it is a member of the royal family, especially when the former king becomes the demon king, and there are other royal family members who crusade against the demon king in the name of 'justice'.

Maithausen realized that from the beginning Charlotte had no intention of competing with the second prince for the throne head-on, and that a head-on battle would not help her, so she changed her approach and designed a pit for her to jump down, and all she had to do was seal all the ways out and keep adding water to the pit, so that she was left with only two ways out, either drowning in the water, or grabbing her outstretched hand and climbing ashore.

The old Maithausen cursed frantically in his heart, and wanted to order the damned woman to be killed immediately, but reason made him endure such foolishness, he knew that if he did any superfluous actions, Charlotte with Hancock's protection would not necessarily die, but his name as a "fellow demon king" would be confirmed.

As for whether this will be the case, Maithausen has no doubts at all. Now the country is in a period of unprecedented weakness, just as he aims at the domination of the country, and there are many more people who think the same way as himself, even among the aristocracy, and the reason why they have been watching until now is only because they have no strength to surpass themselves.

However, it is not without opportunities, for example, to become a 'fellow demon king', a few people will really believe that it doesn't matter, the important thing is that all those who have ideas will not let go of this opportunity.

Maithausen, of course, didn't want it to go down the drain, and after he had calmed his breath, he gathered his thoughts and said to Charlotte.

"Please don't talk about it, Your Royal Highness the Princess, we are not the same party of the Demon King, we are here to crusade against the Demon King......"

"The crusade against the Demon King has launched an attack on me, as a member of the royal family?"

Before Maithausen could finish speaking, Charlotte had already opened her mouth to refute.

This step-by-step approach made Maithausen angry and had no choice, Maithausen obviously couldn't do something in anger at the crown, but was still distracted by anger.

"That's because ....... ”

Why? Of course, it was because he wanted to steal the country, but it was obviously impossible to say such a reason, so Maithausen was in a state of embarrassment.

"Why? ”

The rhythm of the dialogue was taken away by Charlotte, and it was difficult for Maithausen not to even want to be affected, let alone regain the dominance, which made Maithausen secretly frightened, you must know that he is not a fledgling small role, but the Grand Duke of the aristocratic faction who has always been in charge, but at the moment he is suffering at the hands of an unappreciated princess.

This discovery made Maithausen look at Charlotte's eyes obscure, but despite his knowledge and ability, he still couldn't judge Charlotte's original intention, and Charlotte's expression was impeccable.

At this moment, Charlotte changed her mind.

"However, I believe that His Excellency the Duke must not want to do this, and must have to obey the orders of the second prince only out of loyalty to the royal family. ”

Such words seemed to be saying good things for Maithausen, but it was actually the case, but it made the wrinkles between Maithausen's brows even deeper, and he began to understand what this little princess wanted to do.

However, although it is difficult to understand emotionally, it is very simple and easy to understand intellectually.

Even if the charge of 'the demon king's party' can be pinned on the head of Maithausen, even if it really becomes an enemy of the country, the army under Maithausen will not necessarily defect, and Maithausen will not obediently be captured, but will use the power in his hands to start a backwater battle, if you are lucky, you can get out safely, if you are lucky, you can even have the upper hand in the war, if you are unlucky, you will only get the same end as being tied up - death.

Then Charlotte's idea is very correct, instead of stumbling to the end, it is better to take a step back and let the enemy be her own.

Maithausen, who had replied calmly, smiled when he thought about it, even ordinary negotiations were not discussed in one or two sentences like this, but this little princess thought that she could use these two sentences to make herself give up her original plan?

Maithausen was not afraid of danger, and he had a way of dealing with the trouble he had caused at the moment, especially if the so-called trouble was only a one-sided statement, and even more so by dealing with the flies that smelled of blood, which was the confidence he had as the most powerful nobleman in Heberis.

Therefore, it is really hard to say which side will have the last laugh.

Maithausen thought it was ridiculous, but Charlotte herself didn't seem to think so, she observed Maithausen's expression for a moment, and then said slowly.

"Neither the people nor the nobles will approve of a prince who may become the second demon king to ascend to the throne, so how can His Excellency the Duke's plan be implemented?"

This sentence made the ridicule on Maithausen's face disappear, and he looked at Charlotte with cold and sharp eyes, but Charlotte was not afraid at all, just looked at Maithausen.

"Your method may work, but Your Highness, the world doesn't do exactly what you think. ”

Maithausen paused, and laughed cruelly.

Charlotte didn't smile, just looked at Maithausen quietly, this gaze made Maithausen very uncomfortable, but he himself didn't know why he felt this way.

Just as Maithausen was about to continue the conversation, a herald anxiously approached him, and his pale face quickly attracted everyone's attention.

Soon, Maithausen had the same expression, looking at the herald in disbelief, recalling the news he had received. (To be continued.) )
