Surviving The Fourth Natural Disaster Chapter 47: All princes are ambitious
The atmosphere in the garden of Stirr Castle was a little tense for a while.
The people standing in it are all waiting for Prince Danboro's answer... Everyone understands that Finch may indeed be affected by the fragrance of orchids, but the extent of this influence is at most to make him put something that is only related to What my own people said was put on the bright side.
For example, the mage family's hostility to the Denborough royal family.
But this kind of hostility, which both sides know well, can never be expanded... A precarious balance is also a balance.
So, the prince's attitude towards Finch may not be that important, but he will also press a leaf on the balance beam trembling in the wind.
In this period, every leaf has its own weight, and no one wants to add it by themselves.
"Yes." Prince Alexei glanced at the slightly nervous Earl Steer, and replied solemnly, "Talking too much truth will disturb those who hear it, Mr. Finch.
Sometimes, silence is more pleasant. "
"Heh~" Finch sneered, "It's okay, at least for now, our mage family doesn't have to worry about the majesty of the king."
Everyone understands his puns.
Countess Stahl suddenly interrupted their mutual temptation: "So, why don't you catch spiders? Do you have to wait until all the soil is dug up?"
"It is inevitable, Mrs. Helena." Finch answered her calmly, "No one knows whether those spiders will be mutated because of the orchids and soil... especially when they just ate them.
We have no interest in getting ourselves poisoned by spiders because of a moment of inattention.
At least, we have to study what will happen to the silk spider after eating the orchid juice, and whether it will hide part of the poison before we can decide when to start the next step.
It's not a matter of life or death, is it? "
He glanced at Prince Alexei who was still wearing silk: "Look, most people still think that it's just your bad luck, otherwise the noble prince wouldn't still be wearing silk clothes.
Silk is not so easy to give up, it is the main source of income for many fief nobles! "
"That's...not necessarily.
Normally, my shirts should be made of silk, and this kind of cotton and linen shirts are only worn when exercising.
I'm still a little worried, so I've changed all my underwear. Alexei scratched his hair, "There is one thing, I don't know if you have thought about it... My father and elder brother, especially the elder brother, since twenty years ago, I don't know why they are so special. Easily irritable.
That was all before I was born!
Silk has always been a favorite of the royal family... but I don't know if there is a problem.
However, although the great sage Insmail rarely appeared, he would check the various alchemy circles in the palace every few years.
I don't think he would miss something as obvious as a silk problem.
Well...not necessarily.
The court likes to use perfume to cover up the smell of refreshing or soothing potions. Maybe he found something abnormal, but thought someone used it on purpose.
After all, this thing can really help relieve the mood, right? "
Count Steer glanced at Prince Alexei coldly... Although he was not as well-informed as Finch, the prince got the news as quickly as those big forces in Barcia City.
This is not like what an unambitious prince would say. Using the Finch family's private comparison with the Insmail family to try to make Finch speak more clearly, so that he can claim credit for the king when he goes back?
Although it was Finch's words that gave Alexei a reason to come out and talk, but... he shouldn't have appeared in the garden in the first place.
No!
From the time when the prince would not hesitate to use Linde's words in the small garden, they should understand that this guy's ambition was only suppressed, not never.
Fortunately, Helena's plan did not succeed. The husband and wife secretly rejoiced in their hearts, and looked at each other... probably because Helena found out that she had done a stupid thing, and instead suppressed the roiling anger in her heart. Little, the ashen complexion also calmed down a little.
Finch nodded thoughtfully: "If it were me, I wouldn't say much if I found out this smell. After all, compared to the messy smell of the Steer family, it must be the smell in the palace. Very obvious sweet taste from crystal fruit."
"Indeed." Prince Alexei looked calm, "My father and two elder brothers have the ability to drink the mystery of the crystal fruit, and the current queen also likes the aroma of the crystal fruit very much, and she eats it every seven days One... is mainly for the fragrance that can linger in her bedroom, it is said that the fruit is given to a maid to eat before it is about to break."
"Ah... so Mrs. Helena's guess is correct?" Finch looked at Countess Sterle sympathetically, "Sure enough, it was taken care of!
Who told you that the Steer family didn't like him?
You guys who came out of the royal capital, I can't see why you would rather choose to marry a female thug who is well-known in the entire country than the charming young lady of their family! "
Earl Sterle raised his eyebrows: "Although I don't know what you are provoking, you can rest assured that Helena will never doubt my love and loyalty to her.
Don't go floating on the flower pond, I always feel that you talk more today than in the past year.
How about wearing a mask like them? "
Sealing the nose also seals the mouth.
Prince Alexei understood very well that what Finch said meant more than what he said, and he was the one who was targeting him.
Twenty years ago, it happened to be the day he was born.
What happened to Countess Stirr back then, it is very likely that his mother also experienced it, so she has been weak after giving birth to him, and she only insisted on being with him for five years before passing away.
Isn't that normal?
Could it be possible that King Danboluo has the property of restraining his wife, and that one queen is shorter than one appointment?
It can be seen from the age difference between their brothers... There is only a two-year difference between the two youngest brothers.
But there is a full ten years difference between him and the first two elder brothers.
But his father really doesn't care.
His mother clan is the weakest, but this is not because his father made a choice considering the bad relationship between the first two princes who almost killed each other directly.
It's because, although his mother is not so good-looking, she has a golden voice like a lark, and she speaks as if she is singing.
Just to soothe his old man's irritated mood because of the chaotic state of the palace.
However, the fact that the beauty-loving king suddenly chose a handsome woman makes people suspicious... suspecting that he has met true love.
Of course someone will confirm the authenticity.
Although it was later discovered that the king did not have any sincerity, the dead queens were all thrown into the trash can directly, and they were even happy to marry again... After all, I heard enough voices, and I wanted to get along with each other day and night with a beautiful face.
However, it is impossible to close the opened magic box.
Queen Danboluo has since become a high-risk position... No matter how careful you are, you never know when you will die.
Especially in the later stage, when more and more people joined the small team of "send the queen to see the predecessor", it became useless even for the king to save himself.
Fortunately, the bloodline protection circle of Great Sage Insmail is powerful enough, so princes and princesses like them can save their lives.
A trace of confusion flashed silently in Prince Alexei's eyes, and then it was immediately thrown to the back of his mind.
He looked at Earl Steer with a smile on his face: "Mr. Earl, when are you going to go to the great sage of Belferland to exchange crystal fruit?
If possible, can you change a little more?
I pay for it myself... Of course, I also want to buy a box that can hold crystal fruit for a long time. "
Prince Alexei smiled sincerely... But everyone knew that after this incident was exposed, only one kind of silk spider and crystal fruit could exist in Danboluo.
"If there are only a few fruits, it's useless." Finch was a little confused.
"Ah, I have this thing, it's a deterrent." Alexei laughed, "After all, no one can be sure whether I will buy it secretly in the future."
He said sincerely: "Of course I would not do such a vicious thing, but I have to have the means to fight back."
The few people who were watching rolled their eyes at the same time... Heh~ the mouth of the prince!
Earl Steer shook his head: "When I ask Ellie to change it, I will ask you about the wishes of the great sage.
What price can you offer yourself? Write a list yourself.
But you have to understand that money is the most useless thing.
The Great Sage of Belferan will not be interested. "
"Huh?" Finch questioned with great interest, "Why did you suddenly become so healthy today?
Then can I also go for an exchange? "
Earl Steer glanced at Finch: "The great sage of Belferan has never only been in contact with our family.
You act like I don't know, have the gifts you sent in the past been accepted?
Doesn't that mean that your greeting post can be sent to the eyes of the great sage Belferan?
I'm not so stupid as to think that I can control the great sage's social circle~IndoMTL.com~ah..." Finch looked at Earl Stahl's face with suspicion, "Although I don't know what you want, But that person is not easy to take advantage of, you'd better not do anything.
I know you are good at commanding armies, but..."
"Although I'm very angry, I'm still rational." Earl Stall interrupted him, "Otherwise I should rush to the big ship Scarlet at the port!"
The earl has always been good at controlling his emotions. If it weren't for this sentence, no one would have thought that he was so dissatisfied with the royal family.
Prince Alexei breathed a sigh of relief... Earl Steer's reaction is normal now.
Otherwise, he was really worried that the Steer family would want to completely leave the royal camp.
After all, no matter how loyal a knight is, it is impossible for a knight to endure when he is fighting for his country abroad, but the son of the lord he is loyal to wants to make his family ruined and his wife and children separated.
