All-round magician

Chapter 6

"Then Grandpa promised Earl Wei'an that he will get engaged for you someday?"

"Listen to grandpa."

Aphra's cute words hit the old Marquis very hard. This child is smarter than a fox, and he doesn't get in. If he didn't see the impatience with George in her eyes, he really thought that this child didn't mind. To marry George.Neither of them opened their mouths, and the atmosphere suddenly fell into silence, and even the air began to fill with a sense of embarrassment.Aphra couldn't stand it anymore, and secretly looked sideways at the old fox. The old man was lowering his head in frustration, and unconsciously turning the teacup with his right hand.

"Grandpa?" Marquis Andrew looked up and saw his granddaughter's big eyes bright like a deer, with worries and doubts shining in them. Could it be that he overestimated this child, who was originally pure and lovely?Andrew began to doubt his previous judgment.

"Grandpa, what's the matter with you?" The big blinking eyes were full of concern.

"Grandpa is fine. Go back to sleep. I'll ask Uris to see you off." Uris is the old Marquis's personal servant. No one knows how long he has been with Marquis Andrew. No matter where Andrew goes, he follows him everywhere. It is the shadow of Andrew.

"Yuris, did I read it wrong?"

Andrew swung his wine glass, and asked Uris who walked in from the shadows in frustration.Uris didn't answer, but picked up the wine bottle on the side and helped Andrew fill it up.

The two sat opposite each other and had a drink. Uris brought the glass to his mouth and sniffed it but didn't drink it. Then he raised his head and looked directly into Andrew's eyes, and said slowly: "Miss Aphra, Miss Elle and Allen The young master is indeed very different, she is too well-behaved, except that she has no magic element attributes, she is simply a perfect child. Well-behaved, sensible, kind, brave, and cute are all in one."

"what do you mean?"

"I didn't say anything, Lord Marquis, please rest well." After finishing speaking, he put down his glass and went out.

After getting rid of the old fox's calculations, Aphra was in a good mood. Although she didn't know what the old man's wishful thinking was, but with the accurate sixth sense that Aphra had developed over the years, this intuition helped her escape from death many times. She still felt that the old man was uneasy and kind.Recalling the old man's dejected face and weak voice when he left just now, it makes people happy, who told you to plot against me.Because there is nothing in my heart, I have a good night's sleep.

Just when Aphra thought that Grandpa had given up on the trick, at dinner on the third day, Marquis Andrew called the whole family together. You must know that he and Earl Roger are a great favor to Cardias. People are often so busy that they rarely have dinner at home, and we only got together two days ago, why are we together again today.Aphra murmured in her heart, there was no way, she would cheer up 12 points when she saw the old fox, for fear of falling into his ways, so after eating a meal, she often didn't feel like eating.

Generally speaking, after dinner, Benny would leave with the three children first, so that the father and son could talk about business, and today was no exception.But just as Bernie stood up, Marquis Andrew spoke:
"Benny, wait a minute. Everyone sit down. I have something to announce." Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, he wiped his hands with a white handkerchief, then straightened up and put his hands together. Stacked on the table.

"I've decided to visit Earl Vian tomorrow to discuss what we talked about last time, but I'll change the object and let Ellie and George get engaged."

Damn old fox, Aphra despised her grandfather fiercely in her heart. When the old man said this, she knew it was aimed at her. There was no way, the old man's squinting eyes kept staring at her , It's hard not to know.

"Dad, this..."

"Dad, the person George is proposing to..."

The words of the two were stopped by Andrew's pause gesture in mid-air.

"I have my considerations, you don't have to worry, this matter is settled like this."

Seeing the expression of the old Marquis's obvious reluctance to talk, the two had no choice but to keep their mouths shut, while Ai Li and Ai Lun were even more confused, but afraid of their grandfather's majesty, they dared not make a sound.

Seeing that the persuasion was fruitless, Bernie had to hug the three children and say good night to the old Marquis.Unexpectedly, Afra broke free from her hand suddenly, and walked opposite the old marquis: "Grandpa, let's go to the study."

The corners of Andrew's mouth were wide open, and an uncontrollable smile flooded his wrinkled old face. He immediately put down the half-drunk wine glass in his hand, walked up to Aphra, hugged Aphra happily, and left a sentence of waiting Then he took Afra back to her room and left.

The remaining four people were confused and looked at each other in blank dismay.

Stepping into grandpa's study room again, Afra was not in the mood to appreciate and admire so many books, so she asked straight to the point: "Grandpa, what exactly do you want your granddaughter to do?"

In fact, Aphra believed in her heart that Andrew would not just sell her granddaughter for no apparent reason, but she was not afraid of 16 yuan just in case. Aphra liked Ellie very much. After her death, she no longer had a same-sex friend, and her younger sister, Lan Jie, was 8 years younger than herself. The two had no common language at all. She was more like Lan Jie's mother than her sister. She cherishes her sister Ellie very much.Besides, since Marquis Andrew is targeting her everywhere, it must be her showing her feet, otherwise, why does this grandfather keep holding on to him, and he simply makes everything clear, anyway, he is his grandfather after all, so he shouldn't hurt yourself.

It was because of this attitude that Afra was unwilling to continue dealing with Andrew.

"I want to ask you what you think about our marriage with the Wei'an family?"

Why did you ask this, Aphra didn't ask her doubts.

"I don't think so."

"Oh?"

"The Wei'an family, the Rogge family, and the Nancy family are the three major families in Cardias. These three families have developed for hundreds of years, and their roots are so deep that even His Majesty the King is afraid of them." Aphra roughly said Take a look at the regime layout of this era and the world that I know.

"The influence of the Rogge family is in the army, the influence of the Vian family is mainly in the economy (Earl Vian is the Minister of Finance), and the influence of the Nancy family is mainly in the judiciary (Ogg, the head of the Nancy family. Nancy is the judicial Minister), the three families perform their own duties, and at the same time check each other, forming a tripartite confrontation. The three direct blood relatives have not been married for nearly a hundred years, so the king can rest assured that once the Rogge family and the Wei'an family, who control military and finance, marry , the king will definitely be worried about his status. Besides, we are still children, and the king will doubt the intentions of our two families. In addition, Earl Wei'an's thoughts are also worth pondering. After all, I am a well-known magic waste. No nobleman is willing to intermarry with me, but he is willing to let his only son marry me, isn't he afraid that the future heir will also be a magical waste?"

Marquis Andrew nodded approvingly, and he really didn't miss it.

"You have made a very thorough analysis, but you are wrong about one thing. Our Rogge family is not just a century-old family, and the most important base of our Rogge family is not in Mo City."

Satisfied with Aphra's surprised expression, Marquis Andrew continued with a proud tone: "Our ancestors were the most famous magicians during the Great War of Gods and Demons—the ninth-level Demon Saint Ais Helu."

Ninth-level Demon Saint Aisi.Heru!The most widely circulated hero on the mainland, and the idol that Allen admired the most, turned out to be his ancestors. Aphra, who was usually as calm as usual, couldn't help but be surprised.

Marquis Andrew was very happy to see little Aphra finally acting like a normal person, but he didn't know what to do next.

Aphra also quickly recovered from the shock. The old fox would not tell her this for no reason, and the next thing should be the key point.

"Actually, I am the current head of the Rogge family." If Aphra would have rolled her eyes in the past, wouldn't that be nonsense, but now she understands what Andrew means. The owner of the dark forces.

"And my favorite successor is you." From the last sentence of grandpa, Aphra had already guessed his wishful thinking, so when he said this, she was not surprised at all.

"I wonder why me."

"The rule passed down by the Rogge family is that they must be direct blood relatives. Yes, I have quite a few direct blood relatives, but your father is stubborn, he doesn't know how to adapt, and he doesn't have a deep understanding of politics. It's just that he has strong magic (Rogge The earl is only 30 years old, and he is already an eighth-level magister); your uncle is mediocre, he only cares about immediate interests, and has no overall view and long-term vision; your uncle is a reckless man who only knows how to fight and lacks strategy; and Alan Although Ellie and Ellie are very talented in magic, the former one is cowardly and has no potential to be a leader. Although the latter is a little smart, but too playful and unstable, it is difficult to take on important responsibilities. Your uncle and uncle's family A few children are about the same."

"Ai Li is only 5 years old, how stable can you ask her to be?" Aphra couldn't help retorting.

"Yes, she is only 5 years old, but you are only 4 years old, aren't you much more stable than her, I also considered her, but I found you are more suitable than her." Marquis Andrew smiled treacherously, Ah Fulla is very depressed, she can't tell the old fox that her mental age is 26 years old.

"Although you are only 4 years old, your scheming, strategy, and thinking are not comparable to those of your peers. Even your stubborn father can't beat you, so you just pretend to be a cunning fox who eats pigs and eats tigers. "

Aphra couldn't help but sweat: "Should I thank you for your old praise! However, I don't have any magic element attributes..."

"It's not a big deal not to know magic, don't you think I can't do magic too?" Not everyone, old fox, is as perverted as you are, you don't know magic, you know sword energy.
