C28 The Wind Is Blowing

In the Count's Mansion, the current king of Reiss Empire, Wales the Third, was sitting in the middle of the seat of honor. He looked relaxed and relaxed. Obviously, he was in a good mood.

Duke Ronton and Count Walker sat on the left and right sides. Their expressions were exactly the opposite. The former had a smile on his face, while the latter had a very ugly expression. However, because one of them was the ruler of the empire, and the other was his father-in-law, he had to bear with it. However, this seemed to be even more awkward.

"What do the two of you think about this child? Is that alright?" Weyers III smiled and looked at Count Walker and Duke Ronton.

"Yes. . . This child meets my requirements!" Ronton nodded.

Count Walker felt helpless. He could not afford to offend either of them. He smiled bitterly and said: "I still insist on my point of view. Lee Xiang is not suitable for anything. If there is another way to replace him, I hope father-in-law can think about it carefully. . . " At the end of his words, Count Walker turned to look at Duke Ronton.

"Tell me your reason!" Weyers III asked with interest before Ronton.

"This child is too smart. Don't you think he is a little too smart? What he said today. . . Sigh!" Walker really could not find a good reason. Could it be that he wanted to tell the king that his refusal was because of a prophecy from his family? That was impossible! Not only was it harmful to his family, it was also bad for the royal family.

Duke wanted to say something, but hesitated because he realized that the Emperor was nodding slightly. Clearly, Count Walker's words were in agreement.

"That's right. What he said today, to be honest, these opinions are extremely bold. Although it makes sense, thinking about it carefully is very extreme and dangerous. If one day, it is really. . . I am afraid. . . " Weyers suddenly stopped after saying half a sentence.

But Walker and Ronton understood what he meant at the same time.

"Your Majesty, in fact, I think it is the opposite. I think it might be because this child has been under house arrest for too long and basically has no contact with people and things, which causes some of his thoughts to be more extreme. If you can give it to me. . . It might have a very good effect, and as you know, You also know the current situation in Silo Province. . . "Duke Ronton said carefully.

Weyers III fell into deep thought again. He also understood that Duke Ronton was right. Ronton's words were more or less reasonable. When he thought about the situation in the south, he couldn't help but feel anxious.

Seeing the king hesitating, Walker felt anxious. He had been with the king all year round, so he naturally knew that he was making a very important decision at the moment. He turned to Duke Ronton and begged, "Father-in-law, you can find anyone, but why did you choose Lee Xiang? Sigh. . . He is really not suitable for that place!"

Ronton sighed and looked at Walker. "My child. . . Don't you understand? First of all, this child is my grandson. Second, you know the situation of my territory better than anyone else. Do you think there is anyone more suitable than him? Lastly, I will tell you clearly. This is also my daughter's request to me, to her father's request. She hopes that I can take good care of her poor son. . . "

Count Walker secretly sighed. No wonder his wife has been running to the Palace recently. It turns out that she still hasn't given up on this idea. However, he didn't blame his wife because if no one else had added fuel to the fire for this matter, it would be impossible to rely on his wife's strength alone.

"Your Majesty, I hope you can think twice before deciding on this matter. . . " Walker could only turn to Wells III for help. After all, whether or not the king could make the final decision was still the king. Moreover, he was also in a difficult situation. He knew that his father-in-law's thoughts were probably not as simple as that.

Weyers was silent for a long time before he waved his hand slightly and smiled. "Walker, I know what you think in your heart. After all, he is still your son. Even if I put him under house arrest, I am willing to do so. However, this matter is in line with the interests of the empire, so I hope you will take the bigger picture into consideration. Of course, if you and your wife really do not agree, I won't force you. . . "

Weyers III indirectly expressed his support for Duke Ronton, although he did not use an order. However, since this was a huge accusation, it would be very difficult for Walker to not agree even if he wanted to! He was an important official of the empire. How could he not take the bigger picture into consideration?

After smiling bitterly for a while, Count Walker nodded his head dejectedly. At the same time, another inexplicable thought arose in his heart. If Lee Xiang left his family, perhaps that prophecy would disappear like smoke in the wind? This might not be the case. This was not a good result!

"If that's the case, then I hope His Majesty and father-in-law can agree to one of my requests. . . " Thinking of this, Count Walker raised his head and looked at the two of them. Finally, his eyes landed on Weyers III.

Weyers III and Duke Ronton's expressions changed slightly at the same time. The former even frowned a little unhappily, but it quickly disappeared.

"Speak!"

"Since father-in-law must do this, then I hope that this child will not just be borrowed by father-in-law in the future. . . Hmm. I hope that he will completely leave the Rinker family and will no longer have any relationship with the Rinker family from now on. . . I wonder if father-in-law will agree to it?" Although Count Walker was speaking to Duke Ronton, But his eyes are looking at Wells III in the middle.

Duke Ronton was slightly stunned, and then a complicated look flashed across his eyes. He did not expect his son-in-law to be so ruthless. This was really out of his expectations. However, he thought that if he did not do this, it would be impossible for him to stay in the capital for decades without collapsing. Furthermore, he had to be responsible for the entire family.

"Of course!" Before Ronton could answer, Wells had already agreed. "If it was just borrowing it, Ronton said. What do you want? Ronton asked. The most important thing in this empire is to not have any more problems. Since we are going to do it. . . It would be better to make it more realistic, and make it more active! That would have an unexpected effect, don't you think? Haha. . . "

Ronton and Walker nodded at the same time. They could see that this king was going to be serious this time!

Seeing that the matter was settled, Walker secretly sighed. Perhaps this was what his wife wanted to see. But how could this woman, who was naturally not familiar with accidents, know that it was precisely because of this that her son, who had always felt guilty, was pushed to the top of the wave? Strictly speaking, this might only be harming him.
