Chapter 199: He's just pretending to be stupid, right?
Royal Palace of Illus.
"He said he didn't have any money?"
Victor's face was full of astonishment: "Is he kidding?" The money he made in one day yesterday made me red-eyed! ”
Victor knew very well how much money Don made yesterday, so he set the price so low, just one million gold coins, originally thought that Donn's income was very high, and this gold coin should not be taken into account, but he actually ......
"Actually, that's exactly what he said."
Old Tom lowered his head and said in a deep voice, "But I have already given him the house in the name of Lord Adrian, and as for the arrears, I will let him make up for it later." ”
"Got it, but it shouldn't take long."
Victor pondered for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "I heard that he doesn't have an account to settle with the Kadir family?" If you want to come back, you will have the money to pay. 2,000,000 gold coins...... Tsk, he really dared to ask. ”
Old Tom, who had a blank face, was silent.
"If Aubury and Adrien put pressure together, Frank's old bastard will probably have to agree to pay this money, even if he refuses to bow his head, although it is nothing to him, but I am sincerely happy at the thought that he will be forced to swallow his anger and suffer a loss."
As an emperor, but he is bound by the nobles in the country, Victor is not to mention how aggrieved he is, as long as he can make the aristocratic faction deflated, he will support it.
"Having said that, even I didn't expect him to turn against the Kadir family directly because of a mine......
Victor rubbed his chin: "This time, how will Frank react?" I'm looking forward to it......"
Old Tom whispered, "Your Majesty, pin your hopes on outsiders. This is not a good habit for the emperor. ”
"I know. Rest assured. I know what I'm doing. ”
Victor smiled faintly: "What about Aurelia? Did she really decide to do that? ”
"Princess......" Old Tom's expression suddenly became very strange, as if he couldn't bear to look at him directly, "She's already in action. ”
"This ...... Well, if it goes well, she should be able to get some information from our mysterious friend. ”
"With all due respect, Your Majesty Victor, this kind of thing is more appropriate to hire professionals to do than to let the princess mess around. You and Queen Olena spoil her too much. ”
"Huh...... Old Tom, do you think those people are trustworthy, or is my daughter trustworthy? In particular, it also involves friends whose identities are so mysterious. ”
“…… As you say, Your Majesty, of course, Princess Aurelia. ”
"So, what information she can get from Don is likely to determine the future of our country......"
The royal and aristocratic factions have been restraining each other, in a dangerous equilibrium, a fragile balance that can easily be upset. The most dangerous one before was the Golden Rose family's side-by-side behavior, which almost led to the complete outbreak of the Great War. Later, it ended with the fall of the Golden Rose family under control.
Now it seems that Don is likely to be the second fuse after the Golden Rose family.
And at this moment, what about this fuse?
He was discussing the recruitment of servants with Hilton in the carriage, after all, it was a trouble to have no servants in such a large house, and considering the identity problem, Hilton felt that he should hire some cultivated maids.
"If you want to be in town, you have to listen to me, believe me, get a hundred maids of the same height and good body, and train them carefully, so that they can be proficient in etiquette, cooking, music theory, tea art, fighting, transformation, riding and riding."
Then let these versatile maids put on black and white lace maid outfits, stand in a row at the door, and salute the guests together, no matter who the guests are, they will definitely be shocked by this pomp! As for the name, it's Hanaukyo...... Uh, it's called the Tang Maid Group! ”
Hilton looked at Don dumbfounded: "Let's not talk about this inexplicable idea...... What does it mean to have a maid proficient in combat? Also What does it mean to transform? And the riding and the riding, it doesn't sound like much, but my gut always tells me that you're inadvertently saying something really bad. ”
"Trust me, I'm serious."
Don gave Hilton a thumbs up, "So, it's called the Battle Maids." ”
"It's just inexplicable...... My lord, if you really have such thoughts, you can do whatever you want in Ellington, but in Alinkes, could you please curb your hobbies? ”
Hilton said very tactfully: "Although many things between the male master and the maid are well-known secrets, I am afraid that other nobles will laugh at you for such fanfare." ”
"You must have misunderstood."
Tang En said with great certainty: "I'm just giving you a suggestion, if you don't accept it, I won't say it." ”
Hilton obviously didn't believe Donn's words, and this guy had inadvertently exposed his deep dirty hobby.
Although it is well known here in Plandal, what happens between the man and the maid, but playing with the maid is very low behavior among the nobles, especially sometimes the maid is also responsible for the function of serving the guests, so although every nobleman will do this, they will not say it.
Compared with playing with the maid, it is better to seduce a noble lady or a young girl to give them a sense of accomplishment.
Of course, that kind of thing is even more confidential, and they will only be proud in their hearts, because the object of their seduction is likely to be the wife and daughter of the person who is sitting next to them and laughing and laughing.
In terms of private life, the ordinary nobles of Plandal are generally more corrupt, but the families of magicians and warriors who have appeared among the members are very strict in this regard because they attach more importance to their own bloodlines.
Those families whose bloodlines are more difficult to awaken their talents, such as the Kadir family, have been trying to attract those powerful apocalypse to join the Kadir family in order to improve the bloodline for the Kadir family, but unfortunately, the results do not seem to be optimistic.
"Although the maid can be recruited, it will not be like you said, after all, it costs a lot to train the maid for the second time, so you can give up, lord."
The carriage stopped in front of the store, and Hilton put an end to the conversation: "And if you are reasonable, is it really okay for you to expose this hobby, my lord?" Not only did Elsa hear it clearly, but you wouldn't have a good time hearing it when it came to Miss Fiona's ears, right? ”
"Huh? Why? ”
Don and Elsa were both at a loss.
So Hilton surrendered.
Elsa may not have reacted, but she felt that Don was definitely not emotionally dull - he was playing dumb at all, right? Will there be such innocent men in this world? Don't be funny.
As soon as Hilton got out of the carriage, he noticed that the door seemed to be a little chaotic, and his brows furrowed: "It seems that something has happened." ”
Don immediately got out of the carriage with Elia and Elsa in his arms.
"What's going on? Could it be that the Saint Illuria Camilla has come out of the cathedral? So all so excited? ”
"I'm afraid not...... Those people are...... Guardsman? ”
Hilton frowned, what were the guards doing in front of the store?
Not just the door, but the whole neighborhood was full of guards, and as long as they appeared, it would definitely be fine!
"If we don't get out of the way, we'll have to use coercion!"
The guard's attitude was very tough, and he waved his hand: "Prepare to break in by force!" ”
"Wait a minute! What are you doing!? ”
Hilton let out a loud shout and rushed into the crowd.
"Great! The store manager is back! ”
"Store manager! They say they want to arrest fugitives, and they suspect that we are hiding fugitives! ”
A clerk said very angrily: "We have so many customers here, and the flow of people is so large, how can we hide fugitives!" ”
"Report us for hiding fugitives?"
Hilton was stunned for a moment, almost angry: "This lord, we have such a large flow of people here, what kind of fugitive would be stupid enough to hide here with us?" ”
The captain of the guard was also stunned for a moment, and then he snorted coldly: "How do we know what she thinks, she may think that this place is more dangerous, so it will be safer?" ”
Tang En couldn't help but give a secret thumbs up when he heard this, this guard actually inadvertently said the classic saying "the most dangerous place is the safest"!
"Even so, you can't let us close the store and search it, can you!?"
One employee argued, "Do you know how much revenue is going to be affected by our closure? ”
The captain of the guard said, "We don't care, we only care about the security of Alinkx. ”
Hilton frowned: "Such a big move, the fool also knows that you are coming, do you think you can catch someone?" ”
The captain of the guard was stunned and speechless.
Tang En looked thoughtfully upstairs and suddenly asked, "Can you tell me what kind of fugitive is?" If you are willing to cooperate with us, we are willing to cooperate with your work. ”
"It's a very famous thief named 'Night Song'."
"Night Song!?"
"Oh my God! Is that 'Night Song'!? ”
"She's finally shot again!? Which nobleman was unlucky this time? ”
After hearing this name, the reactions of the surrounding people were different, and the civilians who passed by to watch the play were full of schadenfreude, but on the other hand, those nobles all changed their faces one by one and became nervous.
Night song?
The corners of Donn's mouth curled, and a strange smile appeared.
The captain of the guard looked at Don very unhappily: "Who are you?" ”
"This is our boss!"
Hilton's eyebrows furrowed: "Lord Ellington, Donne!" ”
The captain of the guard snorted coldly: "Lord of Ellington? I haven't heard of it, this is Alink, even if it's the lord of Ellington, you have to abide by the rules here! ”
"Really?"
Hilton sneered: "The girl next to him is the granddaughter of Grand Duke Aubery Foel, you yelled at her for me to see?" ”
The granddaughter of the Grand Duke of Verelle?
Looking at Elsa, who was full of innocence, the captain of the guards' face turned green.
They didn't dare to yell at the granddaughter of the Grand Duke of Ferre. (To be continued.) )
