England 1986

Chapter 21 Undercurrent is turbulent
The material used to record the knighthood inheritance procedures is not ordinary paper, but something that feels like parchment. Anyway, Allen couldn't tell what kind of material it was for a while.

Seeing the edict above, as well as the history of the Hill family, and his brief biography of Allen, the long records are extremely detailed.

Until the end, Allen was slightly relieved when he saw the seal and signature that marked the highest power of Great Britain.

This document of inheritance procedures needs to be confirmed and signed by the Queen himself. Now this can prove from the side that he, Alan, is temporarily safe in a short period of time!

"Okay, my Earl Carmarthen, this box is your dress, open it and have a look."

Charles watched Allen carefully flip through the inheritance documents, and didn't laugh at him. The new Earl of the Hill family is still young, just curious for a while.

"?"

What's so great about a dress.

Allen came back to his senses, put away the formalities, looked at Charles with some doubts, put his hands on the box that Charles was pointing at, moved slightly in front of him, and slowly opened the box. What caught his eye was a very ordinary British aristocratic dress.

To be precise, it is not a dress, but a set of exclusive coats that can represent the status of the title!
This kind of coat, according to the different titles, is strictly regulated.

It's a bit like the officials in ancient China, there are rules for officials of any rank, what color of clothes they wear, and what kind of spirit beasts are embroidered on their chests!
In Great Britain, most of the titles are distinguished by the number of minks on the hat.
Now that Allen saw the coat, he was slightly taken aback.

This one
It seems to be a bit different from the old one I have seen before.

这 是
After carefully looking at the details, Allen raised his head and looked at Charles and said, "Your Highness. Is it a mistake? This belongs to the Marquis"

"Well, it does belong to the Marquis, but it is indeed for you."

"Your Highness, this is not in line with etiquette"

"Hahaha, my Earl of Carmarthen, this really doesn't conform to the rules of etiquette, but I specially applied for you, which makes sense!"

Although I don't know whether Alan knows the truth about it, Charles himself knows the inside story very well.

There should be comfort, or there should be, otherwise?

With people's hearts scattered, how will the team lead in the future, let alone the only remaining heir of the loyal Hill family?

Even if Alan doesn't know it now, what if he knows it later?

Charles laughed, the smile on his face slowly disappeared, and he began to become serious. Before Allen could speak, he said: "Allen, the clear sunshine always appears after the rainstorm. We are now in the The night before the rain stops, do you understand?"

"."

Allen felt his nose was sore.

Do I understand?

I understand so well!
Big Brother
Don't draw cakes for me here, I can't eat enough of the cakes you drew!

I don't want to get involved in your affairs or your family's affairs!
On the eve before the rain stopped, Allen thought about it a little bit and counted the time
I'm afraid this one doesn't know, but the rain has lasted for 40 to [-] years, and it can't stop!
The sunshine that Charles was looking forward to might not come for a while.

Ok?
wrong.

Thinking of this, Allen happened to meet Charles' eyes.

There is no impatient emotion in this gaze, but some temptation?
What did he try to test me?
There was no time for him to think too much, Allen pretended to swallow his saliva, and quickly checked everything he could think of.

Got it!

This old bastard!
He's not telling me the facts, he's testing me!
He is testing me!

As for what to test, Allen glanced at the document in his hand.

Now that the inheritance procedures have come down, Charles is not sure if he knows the inside story, and if he has any resentment towards that person in his heart. What Charles said now has a faint temptation to Allen.

If Allen is sensible enough, he has to let go of some so-called resentment and treat the accident at home as just an accident!
Whenever Allen dared to accidentally express any other emotions, maybe in order to protect himself, Allen would be sent out by the Highness in front of him to "betray" just like his father.

After figuring out all these twists and turns, Allen felt a little chilly. Damn, it really is an old bastard. Who would have thought that at this time, a very ordinary sentence would have so many meanings and temptations?

Before coming, Allen had made some mental preparations for this summoning. He knew that this meeting would not be easy, but...
This is too tiring!
He just wants to be an aristocrat who eats and waits to die, but according to the current intrigue, will he start to grow gray hair when he is 20 years old?

Heartbroken, when you are 30 years old, you have to die young?

As expected, like a mother, like a son, it's not easy to get along with each other!
"I understand, Your Highness, I understand very well! The Hill family will always support Your Highness and obey your orders!"

"very good!"

Charles took a deep look at Allen. Allen's performance in the moment just now was nothing to blame, very flat, without flaws, perfect!
"Let's go to dinner."

Standing up, Charles signaled Alan to follow him to the restaurant.

With one hand in his pocket, Charles walked slowly and steadily, as if unintentionally, and said, "I heard that two days ago, at the gate of your manor, you connived at the servants and shot the staff of the Noble Affairs Department. Extremely bad? Almost killed them?"

"There is such a thing. When I was traveling, they stopped the car in the middle of the road. Your Highness, I have just returned home. There are many things at home, and I have no clue how to deal with them. The Noble Affairs Department does this."

When Allen said this, his tone was a little angry.

Theoretically speaking, the Ministry of Noble Affairs brought people from the bank to urge him to pay the inheritance tax. Such an approach was not against the rules.

But the owner has not been home for a long time, and the matter has not been dealt with properly. It is very immoral to urge him so urgently.

As for what Allen did, he didn't say that he would not pay the inheritance tax, he just paid it late, and it was not against the rules, but it was also immoral to default on the inheritance tax.

The way the two sides handle things, let alone the second brother.

As for the shooting?

Didn't kill you, didn't hurt you, what's the fuss?

"These damned bedbugs!" Charles knew what was going on when he heard this. The nobles who can work in the Noble Affairs Department are all the children of the poor and settled nobles with small backgrounds and no fiefdoms. They unite together, For Alan, a traditional aristocrat with a fief in his family, he is born with a kind of "hatred", which is well known in the entire aristocratic circle.

And the empire also relies on this group of people to make the nobles check and balance each other.

To put it bluntly, let them dog eat dog.

"Well, you left home two days earlier, why did you arrive today? Is the road condition so bad? You walked for two days?"

Charles made it very clear, he knew Alan's schedule and time very well!
