Chapter 2 Chapter 2 The Hunter and the Hound
Viscount Falmy Titania is currently on the planet Tiron, and was sent to the local Titanian embassy in Tiron as a counselor at the end of last year. Before that, he was only 18 years old. Has been promoted to the senior adjutant of the Duke of Chu Shilang Titania, who occupies a place in the clan's headquarters "Sky City", and now he has transformed into this border star area. This personnel appointment is not called a left move, it is better to say it is temporary exile.This is an unexpected episode in his life plan, and the frustration that comes with it is natural. If he can't do a good job of psychological adjustment, he may not be able to make a comeback in the future. The shadow of the sudden death of the Marquis of Titania came out. In comparison, this personnel transfer should not be so serious.
In the embassy in Tirun, although he does not have a fixed position, he has an exclusive office, secretary and apartment. Falmy knew that he was causing trouble, and Falmy knew it well, but this knowledge would bring discomfort to ambitious young people.
"I've heard about the Baghuo planet. Even a famous general like Sir Albert cannot win once he loses his target."
"Where did the Meteor Banner Army go? It's impossible to hide for a lifetime."
"Anyway, there must be fraud, or else Baghugh and the others are too stupid, because this will only anger Titania."
Falmy could hear the above conversation from all over the embassy in Tirun.
The main fleets of the two major factions, Titania and Baghee, will confront each other head-on. People who are so looking forward to it are all overwhelmed. They are a group of operators and technicians in the military supply industry, military researchers, 3D TV reporters and pure-players. People who love to join in the fun.In short, on Tiran, Titania and Baghee have become the topic of everyone's gossip, so far.
"Anyway, this situation won't last forever. A breakup will happen sooner or later, but is it true that Titania's intelligence-gathering capabilities have degraded a bit? Even the Meteor Banner Army's escape action cannot be grasped."
By no means degenerate!This is Falmy's view on this matter, and it is probably also the cognition of Alex Albert.The relevant personnel of Titania's intelligence department distributed in Baghew and its surrounding star fields suddenly fell into an embarrassing predicament, and their faces turned green.They originally judged that the matter would be over after Alexander Albert's full-scale attack. Unexpectedly, they entered the state of preparation again and all activities were hindered, so they had to end up in a helpless ugly state.Once the target slips away from the reconnaissance and intelligence network, it is very difficult to catch it again. At this time, I really have to sigh "the universe is infinite".
If we can find out where Fang Xiuli and the Meteor Banner Army are going first, Falmi's ability will be positively evaluated, and maybe he can use this to return to the "Tiancheng", and then he will be recommended by Chu Shilang to take up an important position , It is indeed worth trying, young people make a judgment like this.Counselor is just a title and does not have any work authority. In a sense, it is an idle job, but relatively, it has freedom of action and plenty of time.Therefore, Falmi does not need to devote his mind to important subjects or special tasks, but he is a little financially constrained.The salary of the counselor can make Falmy's personal life safe, and even if someone of his colleagues with the same salary has several mistresses in addition to his spouse, three children and elderly parents, it is still more than enough, because his income is enough. There are three times more cabinet members than Tilun Huoxing government.In addition, various projects can be used to increase funds, coupled with the funds provided by local enterprises and powerful people, as long as they do not involve illegal activities or arouse suspicion from others, they can naturally fill their pockets.
Falmi doesn't have much interest or attachment to money. The reason why he needs money is because if he plans to build a private intelligence network, he will need financial resources for personnel and related personnel expenses in operation. He lacks everything else, he is isolated and helpless on the border planet, and has neither cronies nor friends.The identity of Titania's nobility has indeed attracted many local powerful people to please Falmy, but none of Falmy is interested, they are all mediocre, and no one is trustworthy and respectable. It was the experience Falmy gained in the short four weeks after Thielen took office.Falmy was not a friendly person in the eyes of others. Since he stepped on the surface of Tilun, his mood suddenly became very depressed, and he was difficult to serve. Although he would not scold others with excuses, his attitude did not become rough because of it. It's just that the existence of invisible barriers to reject others is so obvious that the representative office in Thielun stays away.
Falmy didn't care about all of this, he focused on observing the situation on Baghuo Planet, and at the same time expressed his dissatisfaction with Sir Albert.In his view, the dishonesty of the Baghsiew government was evident from the outset.
"At this time, political tactics should be used to make them unsatisfactory. Is Sir Albert's vision only limited to the thoughts of soldiers?"
Falmi, who was too young, could not avoid being young, so he underestimated the mainstay of the clan.Although it wasn't his original intention, the only one who could make Falmy feel ashamed was his former chief, Chu Shilang. He recognized the talent of Alex Albert, but he couldn't help but feel that he had a better way.
If Alex Albert learned of Falmy's thoughts, he must have smiled and said: "Young people are really full of energy." Now Falmy is almost insignificant in the eyes of Alex Albert, the only thing he realizes is There are only two cousins: Chu Shilang and Idris. He is glad that he has gotten along well with Zhu Shilang in recent years, and he also reminds himself to pay attention to Idris's excessive ambitions.At this time, he was stranded in Huo Xing with a large army, and he had some different information about the whereabouts of the once missing Meteor Banner Army. "Confirm the authenticity of the information." Alexander Albert's command issued instructions, so Titania's dispatched army collected information all night and the results were very successful.But this description seems a little exaggerated. If all the information they collected is correct, it means that Fang Xiuli and the Meteor Banner Army are located in fourteen locations in the galaxy at the same time, and the distance between the points in the universe is the farthest. six hundred light-years.Looking at the indications on the strategy map, Alex Albert showed a short wry smile. It was effortless to see through the essence of the matter, because most of the information was false, and the Meteor Banner Army was constantly moving in space, spreading and False images and false reports that are thousands of miles away from the facts try to confuse their real movements. "Fang Xiuli will definitely take action. He will probably attack a supply base somewhere or challenge a small fleet. It is a pity to fail once, but as long as it can expose their location, it will be beneficial." From these words, it can be clearly seen that Albert Titania possessed extraordinary heroism, but his staff lacked the bearing of a commander-in-chief. The young Major General Paulson revealed his inner worries and anxieties. "This may take a long time. If the other party's purpose is to buy time, as long as we don't make a move, they may remain silent." To this comment, Alex Albert's answer is quite straightforward. "That's better, so that we will be able to carry out the actual rule of the Baghuo planet without being hindered by external forces." Ale Albert smiled, and a knife flashed across his handsome smiling face.If the Baghsiew government really thinks that Alex Albert is easy to deal with, it will only be more beneficial to him. He is a Titanian and no one is allowed to insult Titania.Although less explicit than his cousin Idris, Alex Albert also expressed Titania's self-esteem and political values in his own way.Anyone who attempts to manipulate the nobles of Titania should accept the retribution they deserve, and Admiral Baghut will be destroyed by his own mistakes and shallow thoughts, "Don't look down on people!" This is the idea of Alex Albert. When he received the letter from "Sky City", Falmy's heart beat suddenly, and a certain premonition enveloped him.The greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment, he reminded himself, pressing the 3D video tape into the player.Two and a half seconds later, a lively image of a little girl appeared in front of his eyes. "How are you, Farr? I'm fine, as you can see, and I don't have cavities, isn't that amazing?" Princess Lydia showed off her white and healthy teeth and smiled at Falmy on the screen. Falmy lowered his head weakly, and for two seconds he believed that this might be a recall notice. Unconsciously, I blush at my state of mind. "Will you be disappointed to see me, Val." "No, princess." Falmy, who answered to the video after being guessed about his thoughts, suddenly noticed it and couldn't help smacking his lips. The young careerist who covets the highest position in Titania and tries to rule the whole universe will be emotionally affected by the little girl's words. a shame. "Falmi is so boring when he's not in Tiancheng. I don't have any friends and I feel so lonely. By the way, how are you doing in Tirun? Are you doing well?" Not at all, Falmy replied inwardly. "Actually, Falmy doesn't need to fight, and I finally did it. I like to fight with people, but it's better for Falmi not to do this. It's better to have one more friend than one more enemy. The only ones on Fal's side are me and me." Isn’t it just Chu Shilangqing? You have to get along with everyone and come back to Tiancheng early! Chu Shilangqing also said so.” The image disappeared when Princess Lydia waved her hand, and the content of the letter ended here.Falmy was about to take out the video tape but stopped what he was doing and sat down on the chair instead. "Get along well with everyone...?" Falmy murmured, clearly revealing a contemptuous tone.Children are so innocent, after saying this, he suddenly thought of the age gap between himself and Princess Lydia.Just eight years ago, he was at the age of Princess Lydia, and on the other hand, his privately identified competitor, Chu Shilang, was nine years older than him. Unknowingly, Falmy began to reflect on his own immaturity and The meager power. After lunch, Falmy went to visit the ambassador's office. He heard that there are two types of resident ambassadors. One is a vigorous young careerist who regards the ambassadorship as the starting point, and the other is the same Seniors who regard duties as the end and stick to their duties, the current ambassador Christopher Emerson belongs to the latter group, but this does not mean that he is incompetent and conservative in his actions. He is a person who firmly believes that steady progress is the highest virtue. Conservative believers with strong allegiance to authority.Thirty years older than Falmy, he gave the young Titanian nobles the treatment they deserved, being prudent and courteous but not giving any real power.Since the personal relationship is not usually warm, in order to gain power, Farmi had to take the initiative to attack, but the high-pressure attitude is like frozen soil, no matter how you sow, no crops will grow, so Farmi tried to wrap himself in an amicable atmosphere. Negotiate with the other party with the majesty of the nobles. "I expect to return to the center of Titania in the second half of this year, as long as Chu Shilang gives an order; in addition, this is also the will of Chu Shilang. He instructed me to collect and analyze relevant information on anti-Titania forces. I hope You can help me." This is not to use Chu Shilang's name, but to use Chu Shilang's name. Falmy has no guilt about this matter, because the situation has become obvious since he came to this confused planet to take office, and the people here regarded him as Chu Shilang's henchman from the beginning. Even though Chu Shilang himself has no intention of forming a party of his own, from the perspective of the outside world, he has enough supporters to form a political faction.No matter how you say it, Falmi is Chu Shilang's senior adjutant and also a relative. Once he is trusted, even a small setback now will not affect his brightness. If Emerson had no intention of showing favor to Farmi, he would definitely think of selling Chu Shilang a favor.Because he is a determined and rational person, Falmy can fully read his mind.Chu Shilang's chance of succeeding as the next King of Titania is more than 51%. Once this formula is established in Emerson's mind, he will assist Falmy. The formula is established!Emmason's usual rigorous expression began to loosen, and he praised Falmy's enthusiasm and ideas as a well-behaved performance. He said that "as long as it does not affect the embassy's other tasks and balance", he is willing to provide a helping hand.Although it took some time to review, but the answer was received on the same day, it can be seen that this is not a problem. With a mocking mood in his heart, Falmy expressed his gratitude to the ambassador for his understanding and kindness in words, and at the same time Be vigilant that from now on, you must act as Chu Shilang's subordinate to protect your status, and you must not slack off. Suddenly, Falmy recalled his late father, Marquis Estella. The wound in his heart was still there, but the wound had dried up. At that time, Falmy pushed his father to the highest throne with his own ambition and desire. It feels like a long time since then, but in reality it has been less than a year.During this time he learned only one thing: that there are no shortcuts to ambition. On that day, Falmy enjoyed the privilege of directly connecting to the main computer of the embassy, and set up a computer in his room to cancel the three-layer lock code function at the same time. Ambassador Emerson must have a way to decode it, as long as he has the heart At this time, it is best to express as much trust in Ambassador Emerson as possible, just as Princess Lydia said: "Get along well with everyone." This approach is indeed more beneficial. With the mentality of not keeping too much expectation, the operation of collecting and analyzing data was carried out. In less than 20 minutes, Falmy intercepted a strange piece of information.Falmy held his breath when the name of Duke Idris Titania appeared on the screen. "What happened? Are you kidding me?" This was Falmy's initial reaction, but he had always disliked Sir Idris and his younger brother. It was a pleasure to imagine how Idris would be ruined.However, if you really want to believe that "Sir Idris colluded with the Meteor Banner Army in an attempt to drag down Sir Albert and then assassinate the vassal king Arsman, and become the ruler of all Titania in one fell swoop." Such "rumors" ?Thinking about it, Falmy's elbow accidentally knocked off the teacup placed on the corner of the computer table. He had to clean up the debris on the floor first, but the ring finger of his left hand was lightly cut by the tip of the debris, and a small blood spot gushed out from the finger , Falmy put his fingers in his mouth like a big child. "Intelligence is intelligence." An electric current of thought ran through Falmy's neural circuits. It wasn't that he deliberately framed Idris, but the intelligence did exist.Idris colluded with the anti-Titanian forces in an attempt to expel the prince Arjuman in order to usurp the throne and ascend to the supreme throne-should this news be reported truthfully? It's just that the rift between Farmi and Idris' brother last year is a well-known fact. Even if this is correct information, in the eyes of others, they will probably think that Farmi wants to avenge his personal revenge, deliberately Spread rumors to frame Idris.At least Idris would think so, and the vassal king Arjuman would agree with him, so the one guilty would be Falmy, who falsely accused the duke.Falmy is now a person who has been exiled from the "City of Heaven" with his whole body of infamy. If the crime is added to the crime, he may be deprived of his title, or even banished to the undeveloped border Star City. At that time, only Titania One day in existence, Falmy will never be able to stand up for a lifetime, and I am afraid that he will be forced to join the anti-Titanian camp in the end. How to deal with this information?This incident is a good opportunity to test Falmy's strength, and you must not act rashly. However, when you are clinging to this information, someone may have already passed the news to "Tiancheng" and the situation has changed. This is the most ridiculous result. , At that time, Falmy will regret his behavior of clinging to the information, and keep cursing his indecision and ignorance, because he could have changed the trend and direction of history with his own hands, but he missed it because he couldn't muster the courage for a while. A great opportunity. Suddenly, Falmy realized an important thing. Although it was beneficial for him to obtain information, he could not gain a foothold in a privileged position above others.Since Farmi was able to obtain this news, it means that the news itself has a certain range of distribution. The possibility of someone sending the information to "Sky City" is quite high. To the end of the report. There is only one solution. If Farmi's power is too weak, he can only inform his powerful allies and ask the other party to make a judgment, which means that Farmi must abandon his personal prejudice and ambition and plead with Chu Shilang. During the confrontation between Duke Albert Titania and the Baghsu army, he was unable to make a proud record, which made Duke Idris Titania feel a sense of pleasure and joy.However, on January 17, 447 in the astral calendar, he who originally decided to sit in the special seat to watch the war was forced to become a part of the stage.It was at the highest meeting of the "Sky City". On this day, a strange report came from Minister Falmy of Tilun Huo Planet. "Falmina has no evidence, he was born into the Titanian family, but he has become a third-rate instigator." Idris cursed the immature reporter in the distance, and Chu Shilang's calm attitude on the review bench seemed to be a harsh accusation in the eyes of Idris. Chu Shilang said that not only Secretary Farmer, but other intelligence officers There was also news of the same content. As a member of Titania, Secretary Falmy just collected and reported rumors that were unfavorable to Titania. It is our responsibility to analyze and judge these information. "It's an interesting rumor. It turns out that I will be defeated by Sir Idris instead of an external enemy." King Ya Shuman laughed loudly, and then added: "Of course this joke is not funny." Idris' handsome facial muscles were so stiff that he didn't even have the strength to smile back. Chu Shilang tried his best to ignore Idris's reaction and continued: "According to Secretary Falmy's accompanying opinion, this may be a trick by the Meteor Banner Army to subvert and destroy the center of Titania." "It's common sense." The feudal king Ya Shuman showed a thin smile this time. "Does Sir Falmy really believe this explanation herself? Common sense is often a shield used to conceal sincerity." Chu Shilang was supposed to answer next, but Idris spoke first. "My minister has a different opinion, Your Royal Highness." From Idris's voice, he could tell that he was trying to restrain the outburst of anger. Although he had cursed Falmy just now, he didn't take Falmy seriously.Idris' interjection saved Chu Shilang, who was the prince's original test object, and Idris' anxiety and anger changed the development of the matter. "Actually, I'm also very reluctant to criticize my colleagues..." This opening sentence has already made Chu Shilang aware of what Idris is going to say next, but he can't stop it, so he can only quietly listen to Idris pointing the finger at an absent person. "Sir Albert missed the whereabouts of the enemy's Meteor Banner Army on the planet Baghuo, so that he has not been able to achieve his original military and political goals so far. It is rather dishonorable, and I think he may have tried to play expedients in order to obscure the dishonorable fact and divert attention from his failure." After finishing speaking, Idris stabbed at Chu Shilang with a gaze that can only be described as full of provocation, and Chu Shilang looked at the prince expressionlessly.The feudal king in gray military uniform was sitting upright, exuding a cold and hard texture like a bronze statue, so Idris spoke again. "That is to say, I, Idris, became a victim of someone's malicious rumors, which made everyone's criticism of him an extra target. Otherwise, how could such rumors spread at this time? I have a clear conscience, but I beg you Wang is conducting a strict and fair investigation." It sounded more personal than rational. When Idris sat down, the feudal lord slowly looked at the other duke. "I just want to hear Chu Shilangqing's opinion." Chu Shilang felt the subtle fluctuations in his tone. He could feel that the vassal king had a mentality of watching the fire from the other side. The dukes who were equal and equal were hostile to each other. "Unfortunately, I cannot agree with Sir Idris' statement." Although he was careful with his choice of words, Chu Shilang still couldn't hide the bitterness in his tone, and he could feel Idris' strong eyes on his face. "My minister believes that it is absolutely impossible for Alex Albert to conspire to frame Sir Idris." If it was Idris who wanted to frame Alex Albert, it would be reasonable. Shilang did not say this sentence, but the tone seemed to reveal such a tone in the words, and finally the prince's expression sank, Ide Reese's eyes were full of dissatisfaction and anger, and there was a fierce look in his eyes. "It's just as impossible for Sir Idris to have a double heart for His Royal Highness, and I don't believe any of these rumors." It seems that I am really an argumentative person, Chu Shilang laughed at himself.What's more, it is even worse to maintain a polite attitude and skillfully seal the other party's objections, but since the target is Idris, Chu Shilang has no apologies in his heart. Idris began to mutter. "I mean I can't stand being slandered without evidence, don't you understand?" "Your accusation against Mr. Albert is also groundless. You should understand that you must have enough clues to prove that your colleagues have evil intentions, otherwise we will fall into the invisible scheme of the enemy, and the enemy will benefit in the end. I hope you can respect yourself, Sir Idris." "What big talk!" Idris finally broke out. He broke free from the shackles of etiquette and got up from his chair, staring fiercely at Chu Shilang. "Mr. Chu Shilang, what qualifications do you have to teach me Idris, I am the victim of rumors!" "Of course I understand, but what good is it to you to try to hinder Sir Albert who is on the front line? If you order him to lead the army back to the country now, the Baghee government will definitely celebrate." "Forgive me for your boldness, let me replace Sir Albert as the commander-in-chief of the dispatched army, and take down the Baghsiu government and the Meteor Banner Army in one fell swoop, please His Royal Highness be careful!" This person has lost his temper, Chu Shilang thinks so.Once the vassal made a decision and handed over the personnel order, how could it be said that it would be withdrawn? Idris knew this and deliberately played this scene.Although he was full of confidence in his ability to lead troops, the vassal's interest was greatly reduced after he saw through his acting skills. Arshuman was not moved at all, but nodded superficially: I understand Duke Idris's enthusiasm, and then He announced the dismissal to bring this matter to an end. Things won't end like this, Chu Shilang thought.Idris is perhaps the most unwelcome factor of instability in Titania, if he sows the seeds of internal strife and mutual suspicion in Titania, such as spreading rumors that Alex Albert intends to lead his army to attack A coup would be more than enough.Idris should first think about why he became the protagonist of the rumors. The existence of Idris, in the eyes of the visible and invisible enemies of the monks who hate Titanic, is like an unbreakable fortress wall that can knock a wedge into a crack, so it will Keep an eye on Idris.If you can perceive this point, you should be cautious in your words and deeds to avoid arousing resentment and suspicion within Titania. If Chu Shilang was Idris' aide, he would say this to him, but the reality is neither so, so Chu Shilang also There is no obligation to advise Idris. After the vassal king Ya Shuman got up, he called Chu Shilang and asked him to hold another meeting to discuss other issues within this week. "From the end of the year to now, the seat of Duke Zhelish is still vacant. I don't want to rush you, but I hope to find a suitable candidate within the first half of this year." "What do you think of Duke Zhelish's mother?" Chu Shilang deliberately lowered his voice, only to see Arshuman shaking his head wordlessly, and the resolute and ruthless vassal prince also showed embarrassment at this time, because the mother of Zhelixu, Duchess Teresa Titania, a few days ago He came to the "Tiancheng" and brought great troubles to everyone. Among the nobles of Titania, anyone with the title of duke must participate in the operation of this huge invisible empire center. If the purpose is purely to preserve blood, a baby can logically succeed the head of the duke's family as soon as it is born, but this is in Iron Man. Dania is not feasible. The conditions for becoming a duke must be an adult, with talents above the standard and a healthy body. Take Idris, who has the most problems, for example. Although he is only twenty-five years old, he is His political and military talents and achievements have been extraordinary, and because of this, he was able to inherit the title of Duke at this young age.Although Chu Shilang did not speak highly of Zhe Lixu's deeds during his lifetime, once his seat became vacant, it would be difficult to find a suitable successor. With a premonition of a difficult future, Chu Shilang saluted the vassal king and resigned. After the unpleasant drama came to an end, Duke Idris Titania's mood almost fell to the bottom. The willful and arrogant Falmy, Chu Shilang who protected him, Alex Albert who was far away, and The feudal lord Arjuman who was right in front of him, and even the late Zhelixu, made him displeased. What dissatisfied Idris the most was the anxiety hidden deep in his heart. The main ingredient of the anxiety should come from A sense of isolation.Although he made excuses to condemn Alex Albert and Falmy, looking back, he didn't even have a single friend. If the vacancy left after Zhelixu's death is filled by Idris' henchmen, his own status will definitely be greatly strengthened. Even if it is planned by him, the person who is called a henchman must naturally be carefully selected.After the meeting, Idris' younger brother, Baron Radmooz, requested a meeting. He wanted to inquire about the content of the meeting, but Idris flatly refused on the spot. "You know what to do in such detail? Anyway, you can't be promoted to a seat in the meeting." "Brother, don't you have any expectations of me?" "What dissatisfaction do you have? Who was it that disappointed me by violating my expectations at the beginning? Which reckless guy turned into nothing the good opportunity of development that I had worked so hard to win?" Idris' words hit Radmotz like a whip, but he was still unmoved at all, just standing there with a burly body than his elder brother, looking at his elder brother with dull eyes.His appearance made Idris even more angry. This simple-minded, well-developed younger brother had a boring dispute with Viscount Falmy last year, which made Idris withdraw the Ministry of Defense personnel order. Cutting off his pre-laid ambush line, and now the confrontation with Chu Shilang has deepened. Although this conflict is only a matter of time, but cutting off his back too soon will only push him to death. To the point of a dilemma.There is not even a reliable person around Idris. After sending his brother away, he can only chew the unhappiness in his heart alone.
The maid, Francia, changed Chu Shilang's clothes and brought him a cup of coffee. Chu Shilang held a white porcelain coffee cup that was thinner than paper and more expensive than silverware, and looked at his lover's quiet side face.Although the snow-white oval face is beautiful but lacks a strong sense of presence, it is reminiscent of the Titanian blood flowing from Alexander Albert.Chu Shilang appreciates Francia, but he always feels that something is missing in his heart.This kind of mood is not contradictory, it should be said that a man's selfishness is more appropriate, Zhu Shilang understands this in his heart, once a woman interferes with his thinking and life, he will immediately take an estranged attitude, and it is precisely because of Francia's obedience to the rules Only then did the relationship between the two continue to this day. The viewing window in the living room saw the blue light of the stars pouring in. Standing in the stream of light, Wu Lanxia cautiously asked the master. "Master Chu Shilang, have you heard any rumors recently?" "Maybe some have heard of it, some haven't. If you want to say it, then I'm all ears." Chu Shilang's urging eyes swept away Francia's previous doubts, and began to describe the content of the rumor, which was about the Countess Theodora Titania; upon hearing the woman's name, Chu Shilang Shilang frowned slightly.She is the young woman who took over the inheritance of the earl's family last year with an almost half-forced positive attitude. Her ambition is 10 million times greater than Francia's. The wit derived from her ambition has not yet been revealed. Flaws, but it will not be known in the future. With the expansion of her status and strength, there must be more people who will suffer misfortune and be wiped out. And the words and deeds of the Countess Theodora Titania have become the focus of attention of the women living in the "City of Heaven", and so many rumors have even flowed into the ears of Francia. Shea wasn't very interested in other people's gossip, but what caught her attention this time was the mention of Sir Idris's name.It is said that Theodora has a close relationship with Sir Idris, and the two of them are planning many political strategies in the room. Not only that, but it is also said that she has been frequently approaching the prince Arjuman and other powerful people recently. "So it turns out that the countess of Idris seems quite sentimental, and no matter how rich her emotions are, it's all due to her personality, and it's not a big problem." The problem lies in a marriage that is tainted with power and lust. Since ancient times, once the overlord's bedside person is a woman with a strong desire for power, no one will end up with a good death.The feudal king Yashuman has been doting on many women since he was a teenager, dressing them up as toys with expensive gems and jade, but never giving power to anyone; women are just playthings in his eyes, and cannot be co-workers, Comrade, let alone the master, as of now.But people have ulterior motives, and no one can say anything about the future. At the beginning, Theodora couldn't capture Chu Shilang's heart. Naturally, it was hard to imagine that she could seduce the vassal king Ashuman, but she has already obtained the status of countess , it's no wonder that she covets high places and wants to continue climbing.Some people may think that rumors are just rumors, and there is nothing to be afraid of, but another perspective can also be established, that is, the other party may be able to boast of their political power by spreading such rumors. With close contacts between people, those who are disgusted with it will also reduce their harmful intentions. If it is said that Titania will eventually perish one day, it may not be caused by a powerful foreign invasion, but the end of self-destruction caused by internal strife and conflict. This conjecture that has been constantly emerging from the past once again passed by Chu Shilang mind. "I heard that Sir Idris is hostile to Sir Chu Shilang, and I have collected some rumors unknowingly. I am sorry to tell you these things while you are resting. I hope you don't mind." Seeing Francia's uneasy expression, Ge Shilang chuckled lightly. "Being a Titanian family is a very tiring burden. I have never felt easy since I was a child." Chu Shilang stopped talking, and there was no need to continue talking.Although his mother and Albert's mother are biological sisters, he only knew that they always looked at each other with anger and hated each other since childhood. Chu Shilang could not describe the memories of that time. He could only find a way to let Francia feel relieved. Even people like Francia, who is unlikely to have any intersection with political goals, keep Idris's name at arm's length.It seems that in the eyes of everyone, Idris and Chu Shilang have become incompatible opponents. In the past, Idris was always in the offensive position, while Chu Shilang was in charge of counterattack. Since Chu Shilang repeatedly counterattacked, it cannot be said that he He has no intention of fighting, and will probably have to deal with Idris's offensive from time to time in the future.
Duchess Teresa Titania was supposed to be the woman who monopolized the last drop of sympathy in the family, because she lost two sons in a row last year, Duke Jerish Titania and Arthurs Titanic Count Albert, the death of his doting Arthurs made his mother go crazy, and although Zhelish was not as important to the family in the eyes of his mother, his death was also a deep blow.Lady Teresa cursed the vicious people who took the lives of "Arthurs and the others", and also cursed the incompetent Titania family for failing to prevent this series of bad news from happening; Wang Yashuman made up her mind a moment earlier to avenge her sons.Although Fan Wang Yili met the once beautiful Duchess once, and repeatedly expressed that he would seek justice for the Jerix brothers, but from the beginning to the end, in the eyes of the Duchess, his attitude was not sincere at all. Not only that, Fan From then on, the king began to use excuses to avoid meetings, and in the end he even sent someone to send a message saying: "If you act rashly, you will damage the reputation of Titania and your sons." "The reputation of Titania!" In the hall of the guest house where she was temporarily staying, Duchess Teresa Titania vomited several times more poisonous gas than she said. When going out, there must be sixty female officials waiting on him. “铁达尼亚还有什么声誉可言？要是把我知道的内幕公诸于世，那群怀有妒心的卑鄙小人必定鼓掌叫好，那种人向来以嘲笑尊贵之人做为茶余饭后的消遣，亚术曼、亚历亚伯特、褚士朗、伊德里斯！这一些人全是更腐烂的毒虫，血管里流着脏血的人有什么资格跟人谈名誉！” 泰莉刹夫人的这段话并未提及自己与她的两个儿子，夫人微血管破裂德血红双眼环顾四周，移动的视线最后固定在一处，大厅的门口佗立者一名名女性，就连失去冷静的夫人也从服饰与态度明白对方并不是待女，但即使来者是藩王的夫人，泰莉莎夫人们不为所惧，她提高音量诘问对方。 “你是什么人？不，我没有必要知道你的名字，是谁准你进我房间来的？” “初次会面，泰莉莎·铁达尼亚公爵夫人。” 访客态度郑重，无视于女主人的盘问，泰莉莎的气势顿时被削弱了一些，这时才抬头仔细瞧清楚来客，只见女子更加谦恭地自报姓名。 “我是蒂奥多拉·铁达尼亚伯爵夫人，前些日子才由藩王殿下授与伯爵夫人的称号，经维尔达那皇帝陛下下诏正式受封，当时也曾通知公爵夫人，也许您忘记了。” “咦？有这回事吗？我对俗事一向没什么兴趣。” 将伯爵家的继任问题贬为俗事是公爵夫人故意借此提升自己的地位，纵然内心不悦，蒂奥多拉也不曾表露在脸上，她只是必恭必敬地行一鞠躬礼，满足公爵夫人的虚荣心。 “你来此所为何事？” 公爵夫人的语气有着些微的软化，此时蒂奥多拉要求清场，她是个追捕权势这名猎物的猎人，为达目的不只接近异性，就算利用同性也在所不惜。 于是在一月十八日，泰莉莎·铁达尼亚公爵夫人提出的请求今藩王亚术曼皱起了眉头，身为母亲的泰莉莎夫人有意填补亡儿哲力胥的空缺，这着实是一项惊人的要求。
If Alex Albert learned of Falmy's thoughts, he must have smiled and said: "Young people are really full of energy." Now Falmy is almost insignificant in the eyes of Alex Albert, the only thing he realizes is There are only two cousins: Chu Shilang and Idris. He is glad that he has gotten along well with Zhu Shilang in recent years, and he also reminds himself to pay attention to Idris's excessive ambitions.At this time, he was stranded in Huo Xing with a large army, and he had some different information about the whereabouts of the once missing Meteor Banner Army. "Confirm the authenticity of the information." Alexander Albert's command issued instructions, so Titania's dispatched army collected information all night and the results were very successful.But this description seems a little exaggerated. If all the information they collected is correct, it means that Fang Xiuli and the Meteor Banner Army are located in fourteen locations in the galaxy at the same time, and the distance between the points in the universe is the farthest. six hundred light-years.Looking at the indications on the strategy map, Alex Albert showed a short wry smile. It was effortless to see through the essence of the matter, because most of the information was false, and the Meteor Banner Army was constantly moving in space, spreading and False images and false reports that are thousands of miles away from the facts try to confuse their real movements. "Fang Xiuli will definitely take action. He will probably attack a supply base somewhere or challenge a small fleet. It is a pity to fail once, but as long as it can expose their location, it will be beneficial." From these words, it can be clearly seen that Albert Titania possessed extraordinary heroism, but his staff lacked the bearing of a commander-in-chief. The young Major General Paulson revealed his inner worries and anxieties. "This may take a long time. If the other party's purpose is to buy time, as long as we don't make a move, they may remain silent." To this comment, Alex Albert's answer is quite straightforward. "That's better, so that we will be able to carry out the actual rule of the Baghuo planet without being hindered by external forces." Ale Albert smiled, and a knife flashed across his handsome smiling face.If the Baghsiew government really thinks that Alex Albert is easy to deal with, it will only be more beneficial to him. He is a Titanian and no one is allowed to insult Titania.Although less explicit than his cousin Idris, Alex Albert also expressed Titania's self-esteem and political values in his own way.Anyone who attempts to manipulate the nobles of Titania should accept the retribution they deserve, and Admiral Baghut will be destroyed by his own mistakes and shallow thoughts, "Don't look down on people!" This is the idea of Alex Albert. When he received the letter from "Sky City", Falmy's heart beat suddenly, and a certain premonition enveloped him.The greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment, he reminded himself, pressing the 3D video tape into the player.Two and a half seconds later, a lively image of a little girl appeared in front of his eyes. "How are you, Farr? I'm fine, as you can see, and I don't have cavities, isn't that amazing?" Princess Lydia showed off her white and healthy teeth and smiled at Falmy on the screen. Falmy lowered his head weakly, and for two seconds he believed that this might be a recall notice. Unconsciously, I blush at my state of mind. "Will you be disappointed to see me, Val." "No, princess." Falmy, who answered to the video after being guessed about his thoughts, suddenly noticed it and couldn't help smacking his lips. The young careerist who covets the highest position in Titania and tries to rule the whole universe will be emotionally affected by the little girl's words. a shame. "Falmi is so boring when he's not in Tiancheng. I don't have any friends and I feel so lonely. By the way, how are you doing in Tirun? Are you doing well?" Not at all, Falmy replied inwardly. "Actually, Falmy doesn't need to fight, and I finally did it. I like to fight with people, but it's better for Falmi not to do this. It's better to have one more friend than one more enemy. The only ones on Fal's side are me and me." Isn’t it just Chu Shilangqing? You have to get along with everyone and come back to Tiancheng early! Chu Shilangqing also said so.” The image disappeared when Princess Lydia waved her hand, and the content of the letter ended here.Falmy was about to take out the video tape but stopped what he was doing and sat down on the chair instead. "Get along well with everyone...?" Falmy murmured, clearly revealing a contemptuous tone.Children are so innocent, after saying this, he suddenly thought of the age gap between himself and Princess Lydia.Just eight years ago, he was at the age of Princess Lydia, and on the other hand, his privately identified competitor, Chu Shilang, was nine years older than him. Unknowingly, Falmy began to reflect on his own immaturity and The meager power. After lunch, Falmy went to visit the ambassador's office. He heard that there are two types of resident ambassadors. One is a vigorous young careerist who regards the ambassadorship as the starting point, and the other is the same Seniors who regard duties as the end and stick to their duties, the current ambassador Christopher Emerson belongs to the latter group, but this does not mean that he is incompetent and conservative in his actions. He is a person who firmly believes that steady progress is the highest virtue. Conservative believers with strong allegiance to authority.Thirty years older than Falmy, he gave the young Titanian nobles the treatment they deserved, being prudent and courteous but not giving any real power.Since the personal relationship is not usually warm, in order to gain power, Farmi had to take the initiative to attack, but the high-pressure attitude is like frozen soil, no matter how you sow, no crops will grow, so Farmi tried to wrap himself in an amicable atmosphere. Negotiate with the other party with the majesty of the nobles. "I expect to return to the center of Titania in the second half of this year, as long as Chu Shilang gives an order; in addition, this is also the will of Chu Shilang. He instructed me to collect and analyze relevant information on anti-Titania forces. I hope You can help me." This is not to use Chu Shilang's name, but to use Chu Shilang's name. Falmy has no guilt about this matter, because the situation has become obvious since he came to this confused planet to take office, and the people here regarded him as Chu Shilang's henchman from the beginning. Even though Chu Shilang himself has no intention of forming a party of his own, from the perspective of the outside world, he has enough supporters to form a political faction.No matter how you say it, Falmi is Chu Shilang's senior adjutant and also a relative. Once he is trusted, even a small setback now will not affect his brightness. If Emerson had no intention of showing favor to Farmi, he would definitely think of selling Chu Shilang a favor.Because he is a determined and rational person, Falmy can fully read his mind.Chu Shilang's chance of succeeding as the next King of Titania is more than 51%. Once this formula is established in Emerson's mind, he will assist Falmy. The formula is established!Emmason's usual rigorous expression began to loosen, and he praised Falmy's enthusiasm and ideas as a well-behaved performance. He said that "as long as it does not affect the embassy's other tasks and balance", he is willing to provide a helping hand.Although it took some time to review, but the answer was received on the same day, it can be seen that this is not a problem. With a mocking mood in his heart, Falmy expressed his gratitude to the ambassador for his understanding and kindness in words, and at the same time Be vigilant that from now on, you must act as Chu Shilang's subordinate to protect your status, and you must not slack off. Suddenly, Falmy recalled his late father, Marquis Estella. The wound in his heart was still there, but the wound had dried up. At that time, Falmy pushed his father to the highest throne with his own ambition and desire. It feels like a long time since then, but in reality it has been less than a year.During this time he learned only one thing: that there are no shortcuts to ambition. On that day, Falmy enjoyed the privilege of directly connecting to the main computer of the embassy, and set up a computer in his room to cancel the three-layer lock code function at the same time. Ambassador Emerson must have a way to decode it, as long as he has the heart At this time, it is best to express as much trust in Ambassador Emerson as possible, just as Princess Lydia said: "Get along well with everyone." This approach is indeed more beneficial. With the mentality of not keeping too much expectation, the operation of collecting and analyzing data was carried out. In less than 20 minutes, Falmy intercepted a strange piece of information.Falmy held his breath when the name of Duke Idris Titania appeared on the screen. "What happened? Are you kidding me?" This was Falmy's initial reaction, but he had always disliked Sir Idris and his younger brother. It was a pleasure to imagine how Idris would be ruined.However, if you really want to believe that "Sir Idris colluded with the Meteor Banner Army in an attempt to drag down Sir Albert and then assassinate the vassal king Arsman, and become the ruler of all Titania in one fell swoop." Such "rumors" ?Thinking about it, Falmy's elbow accidentally knocked off the teacup placed on the corner of the computer table. He had to clean up the debris on the floor first, but the ring finger of his left hand was lightly cut by the tip of the debris, and a small blood spot gushed out from the finger , Falmy put his fingers in his mouth like a big child. "Intelligence is intelligence." An electric current of thought ran through Falmy's neural circuits. It wasn't that he deliberately framed Idris, but the intelligence did exist.Idris colluded with the anti-Titanian forces in an attempt to expel the prince Arjuman in order to usurp the throne and ascend to the supreme throne-should this news be reported truthfully? It's just that the rift between Farmi and Idris' brother last year is a well-known fact. Even if this is correct information, in the eyes of others, they will probably think that Farmi wants to avenge his personal revenge, deliberately Spread rumors to frame Idris.At least Idris would think so, and the vassal king Arjuman would agree with him, so the one guilty would be Falmy, who falsely accused the duke.Falmy is now a person who has been exiled from the "City of Heaven" with his whole body of infamy. If the crime is added to the crime, he may be deprived of his title, or even banished to the undeveloped border Star City. At that time, only Titania One day in existence, Falmy will never be able to stand up for a lifetime, and I am afraid that he will be forced to join the anti-Titanian camp in the end. How to deal with this information?This incident is a good opportunity to test Falmy's strength, and you must not act rashly. However, when you are clinging to this information, someone may have already passed the news to "Tiancheng" and the situation has changed. This is the most ridiculous result. , At that time, Falmy will regret his behavior of clinging to the information, and keep cursing his indecision and ignorance, because he could have changed the trend and direction of history with his own hands, but he missed it because he couldn't muster the courage for a while. A great opportunity. Suddenly, Falmy realized an important thing. Although it was beneficial for him to obtain information, he could not gain a foothold in a privileged position above others.Since Farmi was able to obtain this news, it means that the news itself has a certain range of distribution. The possibility of someone sending the information to "Sky City" is quite high. To the end of the report. There is only one solution. If Farmi's power is too weak, he can only inform his powerful allies and ask the other party to make a judgment, which means that Farmi must abandon his personal prejudice and ambition and plead with Chu Shilang. During the confrontation between Duke Albert Titania and the Baghsu army, he was unable to make a proud record, which made Duke Idris Titania feel a sense of pleasure and joy.However, on January 17, 447 in the astral calendar, he who originally decided to sit in the special seat to watch the war was forced to become a part of the stage.It was at the highest meeting of the "Sky City". On this day, a strange report came from Minister Falmy of Tilun Huo Planet. "Falmina has no evidence, he was born into the Titanian family, but he has become a third-rate instigator." Idris cursed the immature reporter in the distance, and Chu Shilang's calm attitude on the review bench seemed to be a harsh accusation in the eyes of Idris. Chu Shilang said that not only Secretary Farmer, but other intelligence officers There was also news of the same content. As a member of Titania, Secretary Falmy just collected and reported rumors that were unfavorable to Titania. It is our responsibility to analyze and judge these information. "It's an interesting rumor. It turns out that I will be defeated by Sir Idris instead of an external enemy." King Ya Shuman laughed loudly, and then added: "Of course this joke is not funny." Idris' handsome facial muscles were so stiff that he didn't even have the strength to smile back. Chu Shilang tried his best to ignore Idris's reaction and continued: "According to Secretary Falmy's accompanying opinion, this may be a trick by the Meteor Banner Army to subvert and destroy the center of Titania." "It's common sense." The feudal king Ya Shuman showed a thin smile this time. "Does Sir Falmy really believe this explanation herself? Common sense is often a shield used to conceal sincerity." Chu Shilang was supposed to answer next, but Idris spoke first. "My minister has a different opinion, Your Royal Highness." From Idris's voice, he could tell that he was trying to restrain the outburst of anger. Although he had cursed Falmy just now, he didn't take Falmy seriously.Idris' interjection saved Chu Shilang, who was the prince's original test object, and Idris' anxiety and anger changed the development of the matter. "Actually, I'm also very reluctant to criticize my colleagues..." This opening sentence has already made Chu Shilang aware of what Idris is going to say next, but he can't stop it, so he can only quietly listen to Idris pointing the finger at an absent person. "Sir Albert missed the whereabouts of the enemy's Meteor Banner Army on the planet Baghuo, so that he has not been able to achieve his original military and political goals so far. It is rather dishonorable, and I think he may have tried to play expedients in order to obscure the dishonorable fact and divert attention from his failure." After finishing speaking, Idris stabbed at Chu Shilang with a gaze that can only be described as full of provocation, and Chu Shilang looked at the prince expressionlessly.The feudal king in gray military uniform was sitting upright, exuding a cold and hard texture like a bronze statue, so Idris spoke again. "That is to say, I, Idris, became a victim of someone's malicious rumors, which made everyone's criticism of him an extra target. Otherwise, how could such rumors spread at this time? I have a clear conscience, but I beg you Wang is conducting a strict and fair investigation." It sounded more personal than rational. When Idris sat down, the feudal lord slowly looked at the other duke. "I just want to hear Chu Shilangqing's opinion." Chu Shilang felt the subtle fluctuations in his tone. He could feel that the vassal king had a mentality of watching the fire from the other side. The dukes who were equal and equal were hostile to each other. "Unfortunately, I cannot agree with Sir Idris' statement." Although he was careful with his choice of words, Chu Shilang still couldn't hide the bitterness in his tone, and he could feel Idris' strong eyes on his face. "My minister believes that it is absolutely impossible for Alex Albert to conspire to frame Sir Idris." If it was Idris who wanted to frame Alex Albert, it would be reasonable. Shilang did not say this sentence, but the tone seemed to reveal such a tone in the words, and finally the prince's expression sank, Ide Reese's eyes were full of dissatisfaction and anger, and there was a fierce look in his eyes. "It's just as impossible for Sir Idris to have a double heart for His Royal Highness, and I don't believe any of these rumors." It seems that I am really an argumentative person, Chu Shilang laughed at himself.What's more, it is even worse to maintain a polite attitude and skillfully seal the other party's objections, but since the target is Idris, Chu Shilang has no apologies in his heart. Idris began to mutter. "I mean I can't stand being slandered without evidence, don't you understand?" "Your accusation against Mr. Albert is also groundless. You should understand that you must have enough clues to prove that your colleagues have evil intentions, otherwise we will fall into the invisible scheme of the enemy, and the enemy will benefit in the end. I hope you can respect yourself, Sir Idris." "What big talk!" Idris finally broke out. He broke free from the shackles of etiquette and got up from his chair, staring fiercely at Chu Shilang. "Mr. Chu Shilang, what qualifications do you have to teach me Idris, I am the victim of rumors!" "Of course I understand, but what good is it to you to try to hinder Sir Albert who is on the front line? If you order him to lead the army back to the country now, the Baghee government will definitely celebrate." "Forgive me for your boldness, let me replace Sir Albert as the commander-in-chief of the dispatched army, and take down the Baghsiu government and the Meteor Banner Army in one fell swoop, please His Royal Highness be careful!" This person has lost his temper, Chu Shilang thinks so.Once the vassal made a decision and handed over the personnel order, how could it be said that it would be withdrawn? Idris knew this and deliberately played this scene.Although he was full of confidence in his ability to lead troops, the vassal's interest was greatly reduced after he saw through his acting skills. Arshuman was not moved at all, but nodded superficially: I understand Duke Idris's enthusiasm, and then He announced the dismissal to bring this matter to an end. Things won't end like this, Chu Shilang thought.Idris is perhaps the most unwelcome factor of instability in Titania, if he sows the seeds of internal strife and mutual suspicion in Titania, such as spreading rumors that Alex Albert intends to lead his army to attack A coup would be more than enough.Idris should first think about why he became the protagonist of the rumors. The existence of Idris, in the eyes of the visible and invisible enemies of the monks who hate Titanic, is like an unbreakable fortress wall that can knock a wedge into a crack, so it will Keep an eye on Idris.If you can perceive this point, you should be cautious in your words and deeds to avoid arousing resentment and suspicion within Titania. If Chu Shilang was Idris' aide, he would say this to him, but the reality is neither so, so Chu Shilang also There is no obligation to advise Idris. After the vassal king Ya Shuman got up, he called Chu Shilang and asked him to hold another meeting to discuss other issues within this week. "From the end of the year to now, the seat of Duke Zhelish is still vacant. I don't want to rush you, but I hope to find a suitable candidate within the first half of this year." "What do you think of Duke Zhelish's mother?" Chu Shilang deliberately lowered his voice, only to see Arshuman shaking his head wordlessly, and the resolute and ruthless vassal prince also showed embarrassment at this time, because the mother of Zhelixu, Duchess Teresa Titania, a few days ago He came to the "Tiancheng" and brought great troubles to everyone. Among the nobles of Titania, anyone with the title of duke must participate in the operation of this huge invisible empire center. If the purpose is purely to preserve blood, a baby can logically succeed the head of the duke's family as soon as it is born, but this is in Iron Man. Dania is not feasible. The conditions for becoming a duke must be an adult, with talents above the standard and a healthy body. Take Idris, who has the most problems, for example. Although he is only twenty-five years old, he is His political and military talents and achievements have been extraordinary, and because of this, he was able to inherit the title of Duke at this young age.Although Chu Shilang did not speak highly of Zhe Lixu's deeds during his lifetime, once his seat became vacant, it would be difficult to find a suitable successor. With a premonition of a difficult future, Chu Shilang saluted the vassal king and resigned. After the unpleasant drama came to an end, Duke Idris Titania's mood almost fell to the bottom. The willful and arrogant Falmy, Chu Shilang who protected him, Alex Albert who was far away, and The feudal lord Arjuman who was right in front of him, and even the late Zhelixu, made him displeased. What dissatisfied Idris the most was the anxiety hidden deep in his heart. The main ingredient of the anxiety should come from A sense of isolation.Although he made excuses to condemn Alex Albert and Falmy, looking back, he didn't even have a single friend. If the vacancy left after Zhelixu's death is filled by Idris' henchmen, his own status will definitely be greatly strengthened. Even if it is planned by him, the person who is called a henchman must naturally be carefully selected.After the meeting, Idris' younger brother, Baron Radmooz, requested a meeting. He wanted to inquire about the content of the meeting, but Idris flatly refused on the spot. "You know what to do in such detail? Anyway, you can't be promoted to a seat in the meeting." "Brother, don't you have any expectations of me?" "What dissatisfaction do you have? Who was it that disappointed me by violating my expectations at the beginning? Which reckless guy turned into nothing the good opportunity of development that I had worked so hard to win?" Idris' words hit Radmotz like a whip, but he was still unmoved at all, just standing there with a burly body than his elder brother, looking at his elder brother with dull eyes.His appearance made Idris even more angry. This simple-minded, well-developed younger brother had a boring dispute with Viscount Falmy last year, which made Idris withdraw the Ministry of Defense personnel order. Cutting off his pre-laid ambush line, and now the confrontation with Chu Shilang has deepened. Although this conflict is only a matter of time, but cutting off his back too soon will only push him to death. To the point of a dilemma.There is not even a reliable person around Idris. After sending his brother away, he can only chew the unhappiness in his heart alone.
The maid, Francia, changed Chu Shilang's clothes and brought him a cup of coffee. Chu Shilang held a white porcelain coffee cup that was thinner than paper and more expensive than silverware, and looked at his lover's quiet side face.Although the snow-white oval face is beautiful but lacks a strong sense of presence, it is reminiscent of the Titanian blood flowing from Alexander Albert.Chu Shilang appreciates Francia, but he always feels that something is missing in his heart.This kind of mood is not contradictory, it should be said that a man's selfishness is more appropriate, Zhu Shilang understands this in his heart, once a woman interferes with his thinking and life, he will immediately take an estranged attitude, and it is precisely because of Francia's obedience to the rules Only then did the relationship between the two continue to this day. The viewing window in the living room saw the blue light of the stars pouring in. Standing in the stream of light, Wu Lanxia cautiously asked the master. "Master Chu Shilang, have you heard any rumors recently?" "Maybe some have heard of it, some haven't. If you want to say it, then I'm all ears." Chu Shilang's urging eyes swept away Francia's previous doubts, and began to describe the content of the rumor, which was about the Countess Theodora Titania; upon hearing the woman's name, Chu Shilang Shilang frowned slightly.She is the young woman who took over the inheritance of the earl's family last year with an almost half-forced positive attitude. Her ambition is 10 million times greater than Francia's. The wit derived from her ambition has not yet been revealed. Flaws, but it will not be known in the future. With the expansion of her status and strength, there must be more people who will suffer misfortune and be wiped out. And the words and deeds of the Countess Theodora Titania have become the focus of attention of the women living in the "City of Heaven", and so many rumors have even flowed into the ears of Francia. Shea wasn't very interested in other people's gossip, but what caught her attention this time was the mention of Sir Idris's name.It is said that Theodora has a close relationship with Sir Idris, and the two of them are planning many political strategies in the room. Not only that, but it is also said that she has been frequently approaching the prince Arjuman and other powerful people recently. "So it turns out that the countess of Idris seems quite sentimental, and no matter how rich her emotions are, it's all due to her personality, and it's not a big problem." The problem lies in a marriage that is tainted with power and lust. Since ancient times, once the overlord's bedside person is a woman with a strong desire for power, no one will end up with a good death.The feudal king Yashuman has been doting on many women since he was a teenager, dressing them up as toys with expensive gems and jade, but never giving power to anyone; women are just playthings in his eyes, and cannot be co-workers, Comrade, let alone the master, as of now.But people have ulterior motives, and no one can say anything about the future. At the beginning, Theodora couldn't capture Chu Shilang's heart. Naturally, it was hard to imagine that she could seduce the vassal king Ashuman, but she has already obtained the status of countess , it's no wonder that she covets high places and wants to continue climbing.Some people may think that rumors are just rumors, and there is nothing to be afraid of, but another perspective can also be established, that is, the other party may be able to boast of their political power by spreading such rumors. With close contacts between people, those who are disgusted with it will also reduce their harmful intentions. If it is said that Titania will eventually perish one day, it may not be caused by a powerful foreign invasion, but the end of self-destruction caused by internal strife and conflict. This conjecture that has been constantly emerging from the past once again passed by Chu Shilang mind. "I heard that Sir Idris is hostile to Sir Chu Shilang, and I have collected some rumors unknowingly. I am sorry to tell you these things while you are resting. I hope you don't mind." Seeing Francia's uneasy expression, Ge Shilang chuckled lightly. "Being a Titanian family is a very tiring burden. I have never felt easy since I was a child." Chu Shilang stopped talking, and there was no need to continue talking.Although his mother and Albert's mother are biological sisters, he only knew that they always looked at each other with anger and hated each other since childhood. Chu Shilang could not describe the memories of that time. He could only find a way to let Francia feel relieved. Even people like Francia, who is unlikely to have any intersection with political goals, keep Idris's name at arm's length.It seems that in the eyes of everyone, Idris and Chu Shilang have become incompatible opponents. In the past, Idris was always in the offensive position, while Chu Shilang was in charge of counterattack. Since Chu Shilang repeatedly counterattacked, it cannot be said that he He has no intention of fighting, and will probably have to deal with Idris's offensive from time to time in the future.
Duchess Teresa Titania was supposed to be the woman who monopolized the last drop of sympathy in the family, because she lost two sons in a row last year, Duke Jerish Titania and Arthurs Titanic Count Albert, the death of his doting Arthurs made his mother go crazy, and although Zhelish was not as important to the family in the eyes of his mother, his death was also a deep blow.Lady Teresa cursed the vicious people who took the lives of "Arthurs and the others", and also cursed the incompetent Titania family for failing to prevent this series of bad news from happening; Wang Yashuman made up her mind a moment earlier to avenge her sons.Although Fan Wang Yili met the once beautiful Duchess once, and repeatedly expressed that he would seek justice for the Jerix brothers, but from the beginning to the end, in the eyes of the Duchess, his attitude was not sincere at all. Not only that, Fan From then on, the king began to use excuses to avoid meetings, and in the end he even sent someone to send a message saying: "If you act rashly, you will damage the reputation of Titania and your sons." "The reputation of Titania!" In the hall of the guest house where she was temporarily staying, Duchess Teresa Titania vomited several times more poisonous gas than she said. When going out, there must be sixty female officials waiting on him. “铁达尼亚还有什么声誉可言？要是把我知道的内幕公诸于世，那群怀有妒心的卑鄙小人必定鼓掌叫好，那种人向来以嘲笑尊贵之人做为茶余饭后的消遣，亚术曼、亚历亚伯特、褚士朗、伊德里斯！这一些人全是更腐烂的毒虫，血管里流着脏血的人有什么资格跟人谈名誉！” 泰莉刹夫人的这段话并未提及自己与她的两个儿子，夫人微血管破裂德血红双眼环顾四周，移动的视线最后固定在一处，大厅的门口佗立者一名名女性，就连失去冷静的夫人也从服饰与态度明白对方并不是待女，但即使来者是藩王的夫人，泰莉莎夫人们不为所惧，她提高音量诘问对方。 “你是什么人？不，我没有必要知道你的名字，是谁准你进我房间来的？” “初次会面，泰莉莎·铁达尼亚公爵夫人。” 访客态度郑重，无视于女主人的盘问，泰莉莎的气势顿时被削弱了一些，这时才抬头仔细瞧清楚来客，只见女子更加谦恭地自报姓名。 “我是蒂奥多拉·铁达尼亚伯爵夫人，前些日子才由藩王殿下授与伯爵夫人的称号，经维尔达那皇帝陛下下诏正式受封，当时也曾通知公爵夫人，也许您忘记了。” “咦？有这回事吗？我对俗事一向没什么兴趣。” 将伯爵家的继任问题贬为俗事是公爵夫人故意借此提升自己的地位，纵然内心不悦，蒂奥多拉也不曾表露在脸上，她只是必恭必敬地行一鞠躬礼，满足公爵夫人的虚荣心。 “你来此所为何事？” 公爵夫人的语气有着些微的软化，此时蒂奥多拉要求清场，她是个追捕权势这名猎物的猎人，为达目的不只接近异性，就算利用同性也在所不惜。 于是在一月十八日，泰莉莎·铁达尼亚公爵夫人提出的请求今藩王亚术曼皱起了眉头，身为母亲的泰莉莎夫人有意填补亡儿哲力胥的空缺，这着实是一项惊人的要求。
