Chapter 726
Of course, Kristoya knew very well, so she pretended to be aggrieved and said: "I know that you are very tired after a day of busy work in the kingdom. But there is no way, because as the head of the family, major events that happen in the family still need you. to make a decision.”

"What big thing happened at home?..." Davos was a little confused. Usually, Kristoya handled everything at home in an orderly manner, and he rarely interfered.

"Your son Adoris, he is already 21 years old, and someone has come to propose marriage." Christoya said seriously.

"Proposing marriage?! Adoris is still very young!" Davos disapproved, but when he saw Crystal's serious face, he suddenly realized something and asked, "Who proposed marriage?"

"Alcibiadas proposed marriage for his daughter. He originally told Agnes, but Agnes came to ask for my opinion..." Christoya narrated calmly.

But Davos had lost all sleep at this moment and began to think seriously. Then he said: "Agnes still respects you as a sister."

"Of course I know, and I have always regarded Agnes as my biological sister! There is nothing wrong with us sisters, but I am afraid that some outsiders will think too much..." Christoya reminded.

Davos let out a breath and felt a little headache. He would rather face thousands of troops than deal with these trivial matters. However, he knew that if not handled well, it might affect the harmony of the family. He thought about it, Said: "I'm afraid it would not be good to directly reject Alcibiadas. After all, Alcibiadas played an important role in allowing Lijim to be completely integrated into the kingdom this time, and he also organized Lijim merchants to go to the Yuk Star Sea to provide services for Lijim. The kingdom buys grain, and he is a relative of our family... Let's tell Adoris and see if he is willing. After all, he is just my adopted son. Even his name has been changed. If he doesn't agree, I can't force him to marry. Right! At least letting them meet can be regarded as a response to Alcibiadas's request, but I wonder if Alcibiadas can adapt to the marriage customs of our Kingdom of Dionia? (The traditional marriage customs of Greece are The man is not allowed to see the woman before marriage, but Dionia is much more open. Not only does it practice blind dates, but most children of citizens in the same town study in the same school since childhood. Although men and women are in separate classes, We see each other every day, and there are many couples who get married because of this as adults)"

Having said this, Davos asked again: "Have you seen the daughter of Alcibiades?"

"Agnès brought me to meet her. She is a beautiful girl, and she seems to have received a traditional aristocratic education and is very polite!" Christoya emphasized.

"...With Adoris's temperament, I'm afraid he won't like traditional Greek girls." Davos said thoughtfully.

"But what if he falls in love?" Christoya was still a little worried. After all, there was Agnes Zhuyu in front of her, and the girl didn't look bad either.

Davos was stunned and said hesitantly: "If that's the case, there is no other way. What I said must not count."

"It's better to arrange a few more blind dates for Adoris. In fact, Alcibiadas is not the only one who came to propose marriage during this period, like the wife of Milon, the wife of Stromboli, the wife of Burkos... all It was once mentioned in the party that if Adoris still chooses the daughter of Alcibiadas, it means that this is indeed a marriage granted by Hera, and we should also bless it," Christoya suggested.

Davos knew that the "party" Krystal was talking about was a small banquet among friends that she organized in the mansion a few years ago. The original attendees were only Andrea, Azuna, and occasionally some Agnes later became bigger and bigger. At the most, there were nearly 50 people attending the meeting, most of whom were wives of senators. It was also nicknamed the "Lady Senate" by the no-good people of Turii.Since it does not hinder Davos' governance, on the contrary, it can provide another channel to understand the thoughts and trends of the elders. Sometimes Kristoya can even help them resolve family disputes, so Davos did not stop it. Instead, to avoid suspicion, a banquet hall was built next to the mansion for their gatherings, and guards were sent to guard it, and men were not allowed to enter.

At this time, Davos said with some satisfaction: "Even if Adoris is an adopted son, he is also my adopted son, Davos. It is impossible not to be popular. There are so many good girls for him to choose from. I believe he will find one." What a good wife! I think when it’s Clotto’s turn, the door of my house will be squeezed in by the matchmaker!”

"Do you want Clotto to go on a blind date?" Christoya looked at him with a half-smile.

"This is just a joke." Davos said hurriedly and seriously: "Clato is different from Adoris. His marriage cannot be decided by himself, but must be conducive to the rule of our family and the stability of the kingdom!"

Kristoya was not angry because Davos did not give Crotoka Tax the freedom to marry. Instead, she smiled like a flower. She knew that what Davos said meant that he always regarded his biological eldest son as his own. Heir to the throne.

Kristoya stretched out her snow-white slender hands and actively massaged Davos's whole body.

After Davos was woken up, he couldn't sleep at this time. He squinted his eyes and enjoyed his wife's gentle service. He was thinking about things and murmured: "It's time to find a wife for Adoris. Let him settle down as soon as possible, lest he clamor to go to Latium to fight every day..."

"Aren't you going to send him to the battlefield again?" Crystal asked casually.

"That's impossible! When the Second Legion needs to be dispatched to fight, of course he will go with him, otherwise what will other soldiers think?" Davos said without hesitation.

"Where is Clotto? He is not yet 19 years old and is still a reserve soldier." Christoya asked again casually.

"Of course he will follow -" As soon as Davos finished saying this, the hands kneading on his body stopped moving immediately.

He turned to look at Krystal who was about to speak with a worried look on his face, and said sternly: "He is just following me. He is an adult and it's time to understand what real war is like! In this era , It’s very difficult for someone who doesn’t understand military affairs and war... to become a good king!... Hey, don’t stop, my left side of my back is a little sore, please give me a good massage.”

Kristoya relieved her worries, massaged her husband again with a smile, and asked at the same time: "Are you going to the battlefield again this time?"

"...It hasn't been decided yet. It depends on how the battle situation develops..." Davos closed his eyes slightly and said quietly, immersed in thought again.

After so many years, Kristoya has become accustomed to her husband's victory one after another, so she is not too worried about his safety.

"Your Majesty, are you still awake?" After a while, Christoya asked softly.

"Huh?" Davos responded.

"I want to open up a new industry. Can you give me a reference on what to do best?"

Davos was stunned, turned his head to look at Crystal, who was leaning over to massage his back, and asked doubtfully: "What's the problem?"

"Business in the kingdom is becoming more and more prosperous now, and there are more and more businessmen. Whether it is restaurants, students' learning supplies, or ball games, there are many new shops and restaurants competing with us. Although according to what you said , the commercial products we established... the brand has been known and loved by the people of the Kingdom, but the income has been slowly declining month by month in the past two years... Therefore, a new industry is needed to quickly grow our profits!" Chris Toya complained to Davos.

"Isn't there still a bank where you monopolize the entire kingdom's deposits and loans?" Davos said disapprovingly.

"Just having a bank is not enough. We have so many children. We need to prepare more for them in the future!" Christoya said firmly.In fact, this was her impromptu idea. She was stimulated by what Davos said before, "Agnes' brother Alcibiades organized Lijim merchants to buy grain." She needed to be richer. The kingdom's business would be more attractive.

Kristoya's words about thinking about the future of the children moved Davos. At the same time, the drought also made him feel financial embarrassment. Opening up new financial resources for Kristoya will naturally lead to a new industry in the kingdom. , he was trying hard to search in his mind for some ideas from his previous life that were suitable for the kingdom's trade, while his eyes followed Christoya's graceful body, and a flash of inspiration flashed through his mind, and he blurted out: "Krystal Listoia, you can make women's underwear!"

"Underwear?..." Christoya muttered the new words composed by Davos, and said with a hint of disappointment: "You mean the lining worn underneath? We all make and wear them at home. No one will go to the market to buy it.”

"No! I'm not referring to the lining!" Davos shook his head and said, "Remember that you all wore Aphrodite's breastband when you got married?"

"I didn't wear it when I married you." Krystoya still complained coquettishly at this time.

Davos was a little dumbfounded and said: "This underwear is somewhat similar to a chest strap, but it is more complicated to make than a chest strap. It is more comfortable to wear. It can also bring out the beauty of a woman's figure and increase the temptation to men..."

Kristoya immediately became interested, and quickly asked, "What does this underwear look like?"

"It's -" Davos wanted to describe but didn't know how to start. He simply asked Crystal to lie down and demonstrate for her himself.
