Chapter Twenty-Five: Convincing the Evening Breeze
"This ......"
The evening breeze suddenly stopped the horse, he turned his head to look at Jiang Mei, frowned and said, "What is it that makes you have such arrogant thoughts?" I'm not technically familiar with you, but you arrogantly think you can get into this turbulent situation? ”
I looked at the unhappy evening breeze, and I actually understood what he meant. After all, he had only known Jiang Mei for a few days, but Jiang Mei's tone of voice already revealed a charm of wanting to control his fate.
Jiang Mei smiled slightly and said softly: "Lord Evening Wind, I know that you will definitely distrust me, which is also reasonable, I understand." But I can guarantee that. The military advisors around you are a bunch of wine bags and rice barrels, and you yourself ...... Maybe it makes you feel uncomfortable when I say that, but I also think you're just a brave guy. I'll just tell you, right now. Whether you stand by the side of the crown prince or the duke, you will be the first to die. ”
"Why?" Evening Wind asked.
Jiang Mei said solemnly: "Let me ask you, how is your relationship with the duke?" ”
"Not good."
"What about the relationship with the crown prince?"
"It's not good, I only have the emperor, the country and the people in my heart."
Jiang Mei sighed and said softly: "Everyone already understands your evening style. The nobles know you well, and whether you join the prince or the duke, they don't like you. Because what they want is a subordinate who is completely obedient to their orders, and you are too upright. On the contrary, you may still be a being who causes them harm. ”
"Why?"
"Think about it, what a terrifying legion the Legion of Judgment is, the strongest army in Heaven Beyond the World. If the crown prince gets you, the duke will definitely be jealous. The first thing he's going to do is not anyone, but your Legion of Judgments first. Because you're like a nail that he has to get rid of you. There is also the prince, who doesn't like you either. Although you are a superior horse, people only like the best horses for themselves. When the time comes, the crown prince will probably be happy to throw your ruling legion out to fight the duke first, and if I abandon a legion that I don't need, I can destroy a considerable part of the enemy's strength, why wouldn't I do it? Jiang Mei asked.
I nodded again and again and said to the evening breeze: "Lord evening breeze, I think Jiang Mei is right. You are too upright, and no king would like a courtier like you. ”
"This ......" The evening breeze has been a little shaken by Jiang Mei's words. He couldn't help but ask, "Then if I join the disciples of Her Royal Highness Princess Ilulu, what will I get?" ”
"When the time comes, you will definitely be the safest, and we can pretend to be neutral......," Jiang Mei said seriously, "Princess Ilulu is the weakest existence, and she will not make the prince and the duke jealous at all." You think, she doesn't have an army under her command, only you, the ruling legion. Although the Adjudicator Legion is powerful, it is not strong enough to change the situation of the battle. In this way, the prince and the duke will think that you intend to follow the victorious side and continue your old ways. They will no longer target you, but will use their tactics against their real enemies. At that time, you and Princess Irulu will have a period of safety, and we will continue to recruit troops. ”
Wanfeng thought for a while, nodded and said, "It makes sense, what should I do next?" ”
"Next, you can only take one step at a time......," Jiang Mei said solemnly, "Lord Evening Wind, if you trust me." Let me assist you. If you follow those two people, then the people here are still living in misery. But if you succeed, the people will be liberated! ”
The evening breeze frowned tightly, and he took a deep breath. He sighed violently, shook his head and said, "I actually ...... So easy to be persuaded by a woman. ”
Jiang Mei grinned and said softly, "Since that's the case, let's hurry up." ”
"Okay."
I was overjoyed in my heart, Jiang Mei's tongue was really flexible, and she was able to convince the evening breeze so easily.
Under the guidance of the evening breeze, we finally saw the appearance of the royal palace.
The palace was built in a splendid and extravagant manner, with a bit of European style on the inside, with a high wall and a huge gate.
By this time the gates had been opened, and many people rode into them, and as soon as they entered, there was a huge walkway. All need to dismount and walk. And at the end of the walk, there is a huge palace.
"Don't talk nonsense for a while......" Evening Wind lowered his voice and said to us, "Your identity is an entourage, and if you speak casually at the meeting, I am afraid that you will be charged with great disrespect." ”
Jiang Mei asked, "Then how should I talk to you?" ”
"SMS ......"
Wanfeng took out his mobile phone and shook it, and said seriously: "You can send me a text message, I will watch your text message arrangement." ”
Jiang Mei nodded and said in a deep voice: "If the situation changes at that time and I don't have time to send you a text message, don't be in a hurry to answer, but think about it silently." When talking to someone, don't worry about how long they wait for you to get back. ”
"I remember."
When we entered the palace, we saw a huge long table with a lot of fruit on it.
The seats are seated according to the noble rank, and the higher the rank, the noble. The closer you are to the cardinal bit. At this time, there were already many people sitting at the table, and the evening breeze was sitting in the fifth position from the main seat, and I was quite satisfied.
It seems that the status of the evening breeze is not low on weekdays. Although only an earl. But it's also deeply reused.
People sat in chairs, talking and talking in whispers, and the evening breeze seemed to have no friends, so they sat alone in the chairs in a daze.
I subconsciously looked at the duke's position. It was a gloomy old man in a black robe. He has deep wrinkles and wears a ruby ring on his finger. When listening to people, he will stroke the ring on his hand from time to time, and his face will always be flat. It's hard to guess what's going on in his heart.
At this time, everyone was almost there, and in the internal affairs of the palace, a man and a woman also walked out.
The man was dressed in a golden robe, and he looked to be about twenty-five years old. His expression was grim. The hooked nose made him even more cold, and he was followed by a few personal retinues.
And the woman is beautiful and has a good figure, but she doesn't dare to compliment her dress, and the neckline of the dress is very low, and it looks magnificent at a glance.
People all stood up one after another and said respectfully: "I have seen the prince and the princess." ”
So this is the prince and the princess?
The prince nodded, and sat down on the throne, while the princess sat across from him.
The nobles did not speak, and there was silence. The duke touched the ring and said softly, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, may I ask why you are sitting on the throne?" ”
"It has something to do with what I said today...... Prince said in a deep voice. Ladies and gentlemen, I am gathering you all today to declare an emergency. You may be surprised to hear it, but it happened. Just now...... My father, the Emperor. Your great Emperor has fallen. ”
"What!?"
The nobles all stared at the prince in disbelief, and the duke's face was a little surprised.
"The Emperor has fallen? How is this possible! ”
"He's the most powerful man!"
"Why did it fall?"
The prince interrupted everyone's gossip. said in a cold voice: "Why did my father fall, we don't know, the area where he died is not a safe zone, and only a safe zone in the country will set up surveillance." ”
"The Emperor...... And so it went...... "The Duke muttered. "If he leaves, what will happen to the future of our country?"
The crown prince said softly: "I am willing to take up my father's last wish and make the country more prosperous." ”
The Duke shook his head and said softly, "Prince." Although you are talented, you are still too young, and I think this matter needs to be considered in the long run......"
The nobles looked at these two people stupidly, everyone was sweating on their foreheads, and they didn't even dare to breathe......
