"Smack!"

A loud slap slammed into Gerson's face.

With just one slap, Gesen's face was completely red and swollen, and a trace of blood even overflowed from the corner of his mouth.

With Gesen's strength, he would not have been slapped like this, but the person who slapped him was his father, how could he dare to use his fighting spirit to protect his face in such a situation? If he didn't bear this slap from his father, then he believed that the situation would be even worse, because when the old butler told him to come to the study immediately, he already realized the seriousness of the problem.

"Do you know why I hit you?" Gerson's father, Duke Nugus, had a gloomy face, and it was clear that he was genuinely angry.

Gerson lowered his head, thinking quickly about the reason for his father's anger this time.

But after a few minutes, Gerson still didn't come up with a reason, because he didn't know how much his father knew about him. If he must say that he is wrong, there are indeed several problems, but there are some problems that he knows that once he says it, then the end will probably be very miserable, so he can't figure out which mistakes can be said and which mistakes cannot be said.

At this moment, Gerson felt that it would be good if the eagle was here, and with her intelligence analysis ability, she would definitely be able to draw conclusions quickly.

Seeing that Gesen had not spoken, Duke Nugus finally sighed.

But after this sigh, Gesen could feel his father's extreme disappointment in him, which made his face a little pale.

The Nugus family is not the kind of dictatorial family, as long as the ability can compete for the position of heir, which is why the uncle of Gesen is also one of the candidates for the heir. And in the Nugus family, Gesen knew that he was not the most gifted genius, and even that he knew a few people who were better than him. It's just that these people are unlucky, and they are not as high as themselves in the family's standings, so his heir is relatively high.

The Nugus family does not determine the heir based on the talent of the family's children, but ranks them by a standings, once a year.

This is a comprehensive evaluation that not only tests talent and talent, but also many aspects such as eyesight, command, and luck.

Those who are more talented than Gesen do not have Gesen's communicative skills; And those who are more sociable than Gerson do not have Gerson's eyesight; Those who have better eyesight than Gerson, but there is no strong man under his command; Those who have the strong under their command are effective. But he is not as good at judging the situation as Gerson.

So over time, Gesen, who was not ranked high in the standings, was also surpassed by Gesen one by one, especially after Gesen recruited the three forbidden silver, eagle and wolf, and he became the second heir in the standings in just two years. There were more than a dozen candidates for succession on the list, but now there are only five left - three of them are his siblings. If it weren't for this Savage Lands. Gerson could become the first in line to the throne by the end of the year. Because his father had explicitly told him that his uncle had withdrawn from the race for the heir of the Nugus family, as for his other three siblings, except for his sister Angel. In addition to the official announcement that Nugus is no longer a member of the Nugus family and thus loses his heirship, his eldest brother is also confirmed to be removed from the year-end evaluation.

So Gerson is well aware if his uncle withdraws. So even if he does lose in the Wild Land and will be deducted many points, he is still sure to occupy the position of the first heir. But if he is hated by his father, or even disappointed, then he is likely to be removed from the year-end evaluation. This is not what Gerson wants!

Therefore, after hearing his father's sigh, Gerson finally spoke: "I shouldn't have ordered the assassination of Sean without following your instructions, which led to the annihilation of the Heroic Sword mercenary group in Panda. ”

"Hmph." Yashan. Nugus snorted coldly, "Do you feel that you are about to be officially confirmed as the heir of the Nugus family, so you can ignore my orders?" ”

"It's not." Geson's head was lowered.

"I've already told you that the assassination plan must not be carried out if it is not necessary, but why don't you listen to it?" Yashan. Nugus said in a deep voice, "Do you think that after the negotiation failed, you secretly instructed Domingo through the eagle to carry out the assassination plan in advance, and I would not know what to do?" ”

Hearing this, Gesen knew that his father had indeed mastered this incriminating evidence of his.

At that time, he didn't think about it that much at all, just thinking about revenge no matter what, and he must kill Sean, so when the negotiation failed, he didn't think about anything else and let Domingo do it directly. It's just that he didn't expect that the assassination plan would end in a complete failure, let alone that Lord Sean would use this as an excuse to directly declare war on Ting Qiyin, and he didn't expect that he would be so ruthless in the Void City, killing Aven and his heroic sword, leaving not even a single living mouth.

This is simply an indifferent massacre!

But by the time he knew this, it was already too late.

"I was wrong, Father." Gesen bowed his head and admitted his mistake.

"If the Valiant Sword hadn't been slaughtered in that assassination conflict, it would naturally play a very important role in assisting the war situation in the Tinchiin Territory later, at least the Hasteen family wouldn't be able to escape alone." Yashan's voice was still very low, but Gerson could hear the anger a little more than before, "Do you know what your second mistake was?" ”

Gesen was slightly stunned: the second mistake?

"You actually took the Hastins family as a victim!" This time, before Gesen could react, Yashan was already slapping the table with a roar, "Don't tell me, you don't know that the army led by Dou Tinchiin was lured away by the enemy, thus creating a gap for Alfred's lion to drive straight in. …… At that time, the people who had you nearby could completely support and make an emergency evacuation, as long as you acted at that time, the Hasting family would not be destroyed, even if the entire Tinchi Territory fell because of this, as long as the people of the Hasteen family were still there, then that territory would be recovered sooner or later. …… But look at what you've done!? ”

For these words of Ashan. Gesen didn't dare to refute it at all.

Of course, he can't say that he actually took a fancy to the hidden wealth of the Hastings family, so he intended to let the Hastings all die. Because if the people of the Hastings family do not die, then he will never touch those wealth, and even if he touches it, it is something that cannot be seen, and it is very difficult to sell it, and it may even lose more than half of the price because of this.

Gerson didn't want to do this loss-making business, so of course he could only let the people of the Hasteen family die, and he couldn't resist the temptation of that wealth!

Later, when the members of the Hastings managed to abscond back to the secret stronghold, he actually planned to kill all the Hastins members. For this reason, a team of 100 people was specially secretly sent in. As a result, he didn't expect that someone was one step faster than him, not only killing everyone, but also emptying all those treasures, which made his losses extremely heavy all of a sudden.

If there is that wealth, he can still accept the loss of a Hastings family. But without those riches and losing the Hastings, the loss is great.

Of course. And that's exactly what Gerson had predicted. Ahsan really didn't know that the Hestin family had a hidden secret stronghold. But even if he knew the truth, he would definitely choose to save the Hasteen family rather than peek into the treasure, which is why Ahsan was able to make the Nugus family strong, and even in his generation, he was not afraid of the Boulder family at all.

It is conceivable that if the Nugus family is handed over to Gesen, it will never be a good thing.

Of course, none of these Yashan knew the way. If he had made such a choice by his son who he thought was the most satisfied with him before he knew the Dao, then the first one to kill Gesen was Ta Yashan. Nugus. For no one knows better than Yasan what a valuable asset an ally who will remain with him even when Nugus is at a low point.

But now, there is no longer the name of the Hestin family in the aristocratic circle of the Kingdom of Dabiang.

Come to think of it. Yashan's anger intensified, and he rushed out and punched his son again.

At this moment, Gesen in front of him didn't seem to be his son, and the punch that he threw with almost all his strength without reservation seriously injured Gesen at once, directly knocking him out of the air, and spit out a few mouthfuls of blood on the spot.

"Sir!" The old butler was really in a hurry at this moment, and immediately shouted.

"If you know what your third mistake is, I will not revoke your heirship."

Hearing this, Gesen's brain finally "boomed" and was a little confused.

Halfway through, Gerson still failed to realize what his father's third mistake was.

"Waste, get out of the way!" Ahsan roared.

The old butler sighed, he knew that Dao Yashan was really angry, but the fall of the Hasteen family did have an extremely significant impact on the Nugus family, not only because the Hasteen family has always been unswerving, but also because the overall strategic situation under Nugus will be completely rewritten because of this, at least the second cavalry regiment of Dabiang will no longer be controlled by the Nugus family, and the foothold that finally gained a foothold in the Dabiang military headquarters has also begun to shake.

Of course, the deeper meaning is that since the Nugus family can know the Dao at that time, if Gesen chooses to take action, at least half of the members of the Hestin family can be rescued and the Hestin family can make a comeback, then other families with secret agents and complete intelligence systems will definitely be able to know the Dao. In this way, in the eyes of other nobles, even the Hastins family, who are so loyal to the Nugus family, can be said to abandon it, so what will the other families and nobles who are attached to the Nugus family think?

The results are completely predictable.

The old butler knew that Young Master Gesen had not only done something wrong this time, but also made a very wrong mistake.

When the old butler took Gerson away, there was silence in the study.

After a long time, Yashan seemed to have finally calmed down, so he spoke: "Tell me, what was the biggest mistake this time?" ”

At this time, a woman finally came out of the shadows in the corner.

This is a very ordinary woman in terms of appearance and temperament, and there is nothing bright about it at all, but she is Yashan. Nugus's second daughter, who is Gesen's third sister. Until Gerson found Eagle, Silver, and Wolf, this very ordinary-looking woman had been firmly in the first place in the Nugus family standings, and even her uncle Zigson. Nugus has been pressed by her in second place. Even Ziegson would send his own private soldiers to the Third Garrison, which could be said to be due to her.

If it weren't for the fact that she lost a war against those tribes in the Savage Lands, she almost lost nothing, and Siegson would not have become the first in line to the throne. Even if Gerson later had the help of Eagle, Wolf, and Silver, and also developed her own complete set of potential, she still regained the third place in the standings, and the difference between Gerson and Gerson was only seven points.

It was this terrifying sense of urgency that made Gesen take the plunge to occupy Panda and later the Savage Lands.

At this moment, after Siegson withdrew from the election for succession, Gessen and the other two were officially deposed as candidates for succession. This woman is already the next heir to the Nugus family.

This woman is Hela. Nugus.

It's just that at this moment, Hela didn't see the slightest joy on her face, and she still had that plain appearance.

"What is the reason for our failure this time?" Even if Yashan knew that she had heard his words, he had to read them again. It's just that the sentence has been slightly changed, and in this way, the meaning of the sentence he said before is very different.

At least. This time Yashan. Nugus was admitting defeat.

Hela looked at her father. After a moment, he spoke: "Underestimate the enemy." ”

Yashan nodded, and didn't say anything more, he knew that his daughter's temperament, once he spoke, then he would definitely say a detailed analysis and reason.

"Underestimated three people." Sure enough, without waiting for Yashan's urging. Hela was already talking to herself, "The first one is Asuna. G. Evans. We all underestimated her love for Sean. Connery's attention actually made him an official baron immediately at the beginning of public opinion. Connery wasn't the Pioneer Knight recruited by Asuna. There must have been some kind of trading behavior between them, but they were so well hidden that if it weren't for this incident, I wouldn't have been able to tell that. ”

Yashan's face showed a different color, originally he didn't expect this, but at this moment, when Hela said this, he immediately thought of what Sean had done before, and Asuna's attitude was so strange. It turned out that the two of them had been in an equal relationship from the beginning, not a relationship between superiors and subordinates, otherwise Asuna would not have been able to let Vivien lead Thundering Edge to the Gorge Rift to support, and now their family's Sanctuary powerhouse is still recuperating from his injuries.

"The second one is Sean. Connelly. Hela ignored her father's look and continued, "This man completely ignores any rules of nobility, the ancient rules of nobility are completely useless to him, and it is ridiculous that all of us try to use them to judge and limit his actions. I'm sure that even if he didn't have the status of a baron, he would have dared to send troops to the Tinciin Territory, but his real target was not the Tinciin Territory, but the Yederby Territory. ”

Hearing this, Ashan's face changed suddenly, and it was obvious that he realized how rich the territory of the Yedby Territory was.

And if Sean has his eye on Yederby......

As if to confirm Ashan's speculation, Hela continued, "The baron's next step should be to find an excuse to send troops to Berbis. ”

Yashan's face changed slightly, and he began to hesitate to tell the news to Howard's old fellow.

"If I were you, I would definitely join forces with Duke Howard." Hela glanced at her father and said lightly.

"For what?"

"Because of the third person we underestimated." When Hela said this, her tone finally changed slightly, and it was no longer as flat as before, "William. Yale. …… This person is a genius military strategist, from the outbreak of the war to the end, the whole process did not even take a month, you must know that the army in his hands is only 20,000, but he can easily defeat the 60,000 army led by Ting Qiyin, do you really think this is a miracle? ”

Speaking of this, Hela's expression finally became serious: "There is never a miracle in war, and a truly excellent general can easily make up for the gap between tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of troops. Therefore, if we really want to deal with that lord, even if our family can win, I am afraid it will be a miserable victory, which is not in the interests of our Nugus family. And most importantly, once the Berbius Territory is invaded, then the other side only needs to garrison the Berbice Territory and the Kiraf Territory, then the entire southeast of the Dabion Kingdom will be completely shrouded in the shadow of the baron, so if there is no union, then this battle does not need to be fought. ”

This was the first time Ahsan had heard his daughter say so seriously, and the look on his face was very surprised.

"And ......"

"And!?"

Hela glanced at her father, and then continued: "We have joined forces with Duke Howard, but we only have the most basic conditions for war confrontation. If we really want to achieve complete victory, then we have to kill William, otherwise we will lose even if we win. ”

"For what?"

"Now that the baron has annexed so many of our southern territories in Dabion, what do you think the nobles of the Duchy of Lane will think?" Hela asked rhetorically.

At this moment, Yashan's face finally became extremely firm, and he obviously made a decision: "Come on, contact Duke Howard for me immediately." (To be continued......)
