If it was Chu He who said these words to Charlie at this moment, then he would definitely suspect Chu He's intentions first... From the very beginning, Charlie would not be alone with Chu He, even if Chu He offered to be tied hand and foot.

After all... Liars don't have a good reputation.

Unlike Hippo, Hippo is a Crystal Knight.

His words, from the very beginning, have a certain credibility.

Coupled with the rendering of the control of the future, through a series of foreshadowing, Charlie was gradually led astray. So much so that he completely failed to notice a fact that should never be ignored.

That is, everything that Hippo said was based on an unverifiable falsehood, and everything that could happen was the most unfavorable possibility for him among all the possibilities in the future.

But there are many other possibilities.

For example... The old duke will arrange a way back for him in advance.

For another example, those old nobles, who are already mostly down, may not care at all that there is a nobleman in a similar situation to them, who has been oppressed and even seized territory.

For example, the new Duke of Lion will suddenly become cheerful and generous. It's not impossible, the ass decides the head. When the old duke is still on the throne and the position of the successor is still unknown, no matter how much proportion of the successor inherits the title, the successor will instinctively resist, resist and even hate his brothers, and any existence that may pose a threat to him will be regarded as a thorn in his side. But as long as he sits in the position and everything settles, then he must be thinking about another thing, that is, how to expand the influence of the family's power on the basis of the original.

At this time, an earldom outside a dukedom is slightly worth paying attention to.

Consider some inconsequential personal feuds that have long passed, or take on some of the pressure for your brother, and then let the family have an extra stronghold outside the territory. Between these two choices, as long as you are a mature aristocrat, politician, you know how to choose.

Therefore, what Chu He taught Xibo said was all a deliberate guidance.

And the premise that this kind of guidance can succeed is precisely that all people have selfishness, selfishness to themselves, and selfishness to others.

Charlie has a gap in his own heart, and there is space to be used.

"What should I do?" blurted out, and Charlie regretted it. Even if he is jerky, but he is also a big nobleman, even if he has never been cultivated as an heir since he was a child, he still has the qualities he should have. At this time, when he said such a thing, he undoubtedly took the initiative and took the initiative to send it to Hippo.

Sure enough, Hippo smiled, his expression gentle and wise.

Hippo began to have more affection for Chu He's future career planning.

Sure enough, compared to dancing with knives and guns, he showed his funny skills like a clown. Sitting in a chair like this, grasping people's hearts, and controlling people's emotions with the future is the path I should really take. Are we really wrong?" Hippo sighed inwardly.

He even wondered what kind of pattern it would be if they weren't crystal knights from a long time ago, but crystal sages.

Retracting his thoughts, Hippo didn't dwell on it for long.

After all, he has not yet done his full job of this 'conquest' in front of him.

Although, the turning point has already begun.

"If you want to ask me what to do, why are you pointing your sharp sword at me?" Hippo asked Charlie.

Charlie's hand subconsciously relaxed, and his complexion changed slightly.

The sword fell to the ground, and there was a clanging sound.

Rumble!

The door was slammed open, and several knights rushed in.

Charlie roared without looking back, "Get out of here!" ”

In the case of losing the adjustment of mentality, he even said foul language, which is very inconsistent with the cultivation of a nobleman.

Charlie turned his gaze back to Hippo.

He didn't have Hippo's ability to see through the future, but he instinctively sensed that by continuing on the subject, perhaps he would break into a more dangerous and unpredictable realm.

But behind that danger, there is a light that he can't refuse.

So Charlie knowingly asked, "I... What should I do?"

Hippo began to chant again, his voice was not loud, and his singing voice was by no means perfect, but at this moment every word and note of his fell on Charlie's ears like thunder.

"The lion king is growing old, and he has three sons, the eldest son is shrewd and capable, the second son is smart and perceptive, and the younger son is the most pleased. The lion pack needs a new leader, and the lion king knows that he should choose the eldest son, but he prefers the younger son only to the younger son... ”

"You want me to fight for the title?"

"Do you know what you're talking about? We are not your blood family, our inheritance has its own reason... Charlie himself was looking for excuses to suppress the swollen, surging ambitions in his heart.

He was not trying to convince Hippo, but he wanted to convince himself with reality.

"But the laws of the empire have never been prescribed... No!," said Hipp.

Because of the chaos of the aristocratic inheritance system, the empire really did not have a hard line on the way of succession to the title.

Even, most of the time, the inheritance of noble titles has nothing to do with royalty. Unless a noble family has lost almost all of their direct heirs in an instant. At this time, it will be up to the royal family to decide whether to take back the title and the domain, or to appoint a new heir.

"No! No, I'm too far behind. "Charlie's refusal this time was even more difficult, and not thorough... The fact that he gave the reason why he could not make such a choice was in itself a sign of his vacillation.

For example, a man and a woman go out on a date, in the dead of night, with a strong affection and a relationship between each other, has long been tacit. So the man asked the woman to go to the hotel for friendly talks, if the woman directly and decisively refused, then this matter is basically no play, don't be too entangled, so as not to waste the initial investment. But if the woman refuses on the grounds that her family will ask, or that she has come to the eldest aunt, then it means that she has actually begun to waver in her heart, but she lacks a step to convince herself.

At this time, you should give full play to all kinds of sweet words and mountain alliances, and by the way, stick to your attitude, and it will become a good thing to push and half-push.

"Yes, you're lagging behind. But... With my help, it's a whole different story. Don't forget, I... Able to see through the future. Your opponent, all the movements, are in my eyes, and there is no escape. "Hippo delivered the heaviest blow.

So Charlie completely fell, completely losing the original reason for provocation.

What the?

Ophelia's unjust death?

Perhaps!

Before facing temptation and profit, most men think that they are in love.

But when the test really comes, they will know how quickly they surrender.
