Looking at the suddenly glorious old king, Prince William did not show any unexpected expressions.

It seems so.

The half-elf king swept away the air like a gossamer before, and his tone became sonorous and powerful, and he asked Prince William:

"To your younger brother, I am about to marry the Northland. What do you think about the Duke's adopted daughter?"

"I listen to your arrangements." Prince William lowered his head, seemingly afraid to look at his father's eyes.

As the second son, Tupei actually married the adopted daughter of the Duke of the North. This incident obviously made Prince William, the eldest son, a little uncomfortable.

But Prince William did not dare to express this dissatisfaction.

"I'm asking what you think!" The half-elf king doesn't seem to want to easily let go of his eldest son.

"I...I have no idea..."

"pa!"

The scepter in the hands of the old king swung out quickly and hit Prince William heavily. On the knees.

Prince William screamed, knelt down in front of the king, and shouted: "Royal Father, I really dare not complain!"

"Fool!" The old king He shouted sternly, "Do you really think I arranged for Tupei to go to the north to marry Vera?"

"I...I..."

"Say!"

p>

"I don't know..."

"pa! pa! pa!"

The scepter in the hands of the old king kept waving, and raindrops usually hit Prince William’s behind.

Poor William didn't dare to resist at all, and could only endure silently, screaming from time to time, as if he wanted to win father's sympathy.

For a long time, the old king finally got tired.

I saw him sitting back on the bed gasping for breath, hate iron for not becoming steel and scolded: "You don’t know? You dignified a prince of a country, a half-elf, a future patriarch, and even told me you don’t Know?

Is it waiting for the enemy to hit your eyes in the future, and the half-elf clan is about to die? When the courtiers ask you what to do, you will only say--

You have no idea Don’t you know?

No responsibility!

There is no nodded brain!

If it weren’t for you to be my only bloodline, I I've abandoned you long ago!"

Faced with the old king's reprimand, Prince William shiver crawled on the ground coldly, not daring to move.

But what he didn't know was that such a cowardly attitude would only make his father even more angry.

The old king looked at his son, heave a long sigh, and did not speak for a long time.

Prince William, who was crawling on the ground, waited for a long time and didn't wait for the next word from the father, so he cautiously lifted the head.

Then he saw father's indifferent and deep gaze.

It was a look he had never seen before.

Don't know why, Prince William suddenly felt a panic inexplicably.

As if something important in life has left him.

But before he could ask, the old king spoke again:

"William, tell me, what is the way of survival for our Modwin family?"

"Squeeze the chips in your hand!" Prince William replied quickly, as if a poor student finally found a question on the test paper that he could do.

"Then tell me, what does this way of survival mean?"

Prince William hurriedly searched for trouble, and only cautiously replied after a long time: "Yes, We must squeeze our chips and don't bet lightly."

"Why don't you bet lightly?" The old king continued to ask blankly.

Prince William was immediately dumbfounded. Why did you ask the additional questions?

The phrase "I don't know" was swallowed by Prince William as soon as he reached his throat.

He felt that if he dared to say that, he would definitely be beaten again.

"I...I think...just...just...betting...be cautious..." Poor Prince William held back for a long time and couldn't say anything.

The brilliance in the eyes of the old king is even more bleak.

In desperation, he had no choice but to explain patiently: "Two giants are fighting, you are a thin little boy, if you dare to overestimate one's capabilities to join the battle group, then you will only end up crushed!

So, your best choice is to watch the battle.

No matter how the giants threaten and lure, you can’t easily end until the situation becomes clear.

Your bargaining chip Not much, but it’s very important.

As long as you don’t bet easily, it will become more and more important!

As long as you don’t help each other, both I need to win you over.

You can use this to move around, and there will be more strategic space for turnover.

Understand?"

"Listen Understand." Prince William quickly nodded, and he didn't know if he really understood it, or he just wanted to lie and escape father's blame.

The look of the old king seemed disappointed.

This phrase from the Modwin family implies the blood and tears and suffering of the half-elf clan!

How many shady and dirty transactions have been carried.

It's a pity...

The old king sighed and asked: "So, now we are caught between the North and the East. Do you know what to do?"

"Got it. As long as they don't have a winner, then we will never stand in line, never bet!"

"en." Finally, the old king's face With some smiles, he seemed to feel that his son was not too stupid to be hopeless.

"Then, think about it again, is it really my arrangement for Tupei to marry Vera?"

Prince William is smart this time, shaking his head again and again: "No, father, you are so wise, how can you bet on the North at this critical moment."

Seeing the old king slowly nodded, Prince William's confidence increased: "So, this matter is a younger brother Do it yourself?"

The old king's face flashed with a hint of sullenness: "hmph! Of course, there is that bitch behind to help!"

Prince William didn't dare to pick up this time.

Because he knows that the "bad woman" in the old king's mouth refers to the queen.

Although in the eyes of outsiders, the half-elf king and the queen have a harmonious relationship, but William knows very well that since the day the queen married into the royal family, father has been dissatisfied with her in various ways.

In the matter of adopting Prince Tupei, the two almost turned each other back into rivalry.

The old king who pays attention to bloodline inheritance has never regarded Prince Tupei as his son, even if legally speaking, he is indeed the son of the king.

If it were not for the Miller family from which the queen was born, the king would have abandoned her long ago.

Now, the queen seems to want to use Tupei to marry Vera to win over the Duke of the North.

This disregard of the overall situation clearly angered the old king who wanted to maintain neutrality and played balance between the east and the north.

"The East Territory should send an envoy over in a few days, when the time comes, you go and receive it."

"Yes."

"Remember No matter how the people of the East are attracted to the threat, you should not go out and participate in person, provide them with some necessary convenience, and let them fight with the people of the North."

"I understand."

After all this, the old king seemed to be tired, so he waved his hand to signal Prince William to leave.

Prince William saluted him immediately, but before he could walk out of the palace, the king stopped him again: "By the way, what happened to the Hyacinth Chamber of Commerce that you asked you to investigate last time? "

"I checked, the Hyacinth Chamber of Commerce has no problem, and the commercial taxes are paid on time and according to the amount..."

"Fool!" The old king was angry again. "Am I asking you to investigate their tax evasion?"

Prince William was dumbfounded.

The old king gasped for a long while before calming down his anger, and finally waved his hand frustratedly: "You continue to investigate."

"Yes." Prince William trembling with fear answered authentically. .

"How is Little Charlie?"

When the king asked his son, a smile appeared involuntarily on Prince William's face: "Little fellow is very good, recently I have already started to learn swords, but it is too naughty, the flowers and plants in the palace have suffered..."

"Send him to me tomorrow and stay with me for a while."

Prince William does not doubt that he has him, and repeatedly nodded: "Yes, Royal Father."

At this time, light footsteps sounded outside the palace. As soon as Prince William turned his head, he saw his father act swiftly. Lie down on the bed.

Sleep in one second.

"William, is Your Majesty asleep?" The queen came in and asked in a low voice.

"Yes, I fell asleep as soon as I came back."

"Well, you can go back too."

"Yes."
