Dear Broom Knight

Most importantly, everyone understood that Leon could never be the one to come up with those vicious plans.

It wasn't a question of whether he had the heart to do it, but rather that he didn't have the ability.

Only Leon's own father, whose mind was 'blinded' by his young, beautiful, and flirtatious little wife, would.

That old guy was clearly using his older, adult children to please his young wife.

If he really didn't know what was happening, how could the new princess consort have been so single-minded in thinking that having two sons would solve everything, neglecting everything else during Leon's childhood and only focusing on having children?

Tsk~ To coax her husband to her chambers, that new princess consort worked hard to learn many ways to show concern!

There are no good people in the Northern Lands royal family.

Therefore, Leon, a guy who actually had a conscience, ended up becoming a true sacrifice.

In fact, it could be seen from the White Dragon King's lack of intervention as his sons fought over power and position that as long as no real harm was done, it wasn't a big deal.

The worst outcome would simply be Leon's branch completely losing the right to inherit the throne, defeated in the power struggle.

However, for the new princess consort, who already had an absolutely innocent son, she would rather completely abandon her grown son, who clearly respected and loved her very much, than withdraw from the stage of history.

What tormented Leon was not only his own mother's abandonment but also the betrayal of his two younger sisters, whom he had once cherished and cared for very much.

It could be seen from Yuri that Leon had been a good child who treated people sincerely since he was young.

If he could be so good to Yuri, whom he regarded as a younger brother, it went without saying that he would be even better to his two biological sisters.

However, compared to this very, very good older brother, the two little princesses still chose a vague and illusory bright future… as long as the right to inherit the throne remained with their branch, they would have the same princess status as the White Dragon King's daughter.

If their brother completely lost the right to inherit, they would only be ordinary members of the royal family.

Their future marriages would naturally be much worse.

This was also the main reason why Yuri was willing to accept Alex into the Tiger's Fang for training.

If he didn't intervene, the position of Icefield Queen would inevitably belong to a princess from Leon's generation.

Originally, Leon's own younger sister was the most likely, especially the sister who was only six years older than Alex.

Although they were cold-blooded and ruthless, the White Dragon King might have taken a liking to this aspect of them… Such people, who were good at weighing the pros and cons, would at most cause some trouble in the Icefield Kingdom but would never point their blades at the Northern Lands Kingdom.

Leon, what did those years of pain count for in the face of so-called national affairs?

Not to mention his current obvious sense of relief.

Even if Leon himself wouldn't necessarily take the initiative to do anything because of it, he didn't want to have any more contact with that past.

However, that didn't mean that when the opportunity to completely ruin everything that group of people dreamed of fell directly into his hands, Leon would do nothing.

As long as Alex came to the Tiger's Fang, they could ensure that neither of those two princesses would be chosen.

Anyway, royal marriages didn't really require any ethics; marrying one's own granddaughter was fine! What did it matter if it was just a nominal aunt!

Otherwise, if Yuri had firmly opposed it, Leon wouldn't have been able to completely refuse the White Dragon King's request.

This was different from becoming a border lord.

If Yuri was unwilling, there was no telling what Alex might learn.

The White Dragon King didn't react to this either; he didn't only have those two direct granddaughters, so he wouldn't harm his millennial plan for their benefit… What was more important was the influence Alex received than which granddaughter was married off.

The survival states of the Icefield Royal Family and the Northern Lands Royal Family were completely different.

If Alex grew up in the Northern Lands Palace, no one could guarantee what he would eventually become.

But in the common world, especially in a passionate adventure group like the Tiger's Fang, even the most indifferent person could feel a little love and enthusiasm.

Moreover, Leon, as a loser in the palace struggle, could also cause this kid to have some misunderstandings… Such an excellent great knight could only flee to another country in the end; the internal struggles of the Northern Lands Royal Family must be even more terrifying.

Therefore, his mother being married into the Icefield Royal Family must have been out of the White Dragon King's paternal love, and not burdened with any responsibility… Some things could only be done and never said.

As for what outsiders speculated, that was just the wild thoughts of irrelevant people.

Although he didn't pour his heart out to Alex like Milan, Yuri had actually put a lot of effort into the Icefield Prince's growth.

He told him about history and the temple so that this child would understand a little about the art of scheming, but he had to control his performance and never expose the White Dragon King's plan… Compared to the advisors sent by the White Dragon King, Alex was obviously more willing to listen to Yuri's teachings.

Although he held back a little, Yuri never said a word against his conscience, and the things he taught Alex were absolutely true and effective, including courses in finance and management.

But Yuri didn't plan to pursue the secrets within… Anyway, Leon didn't plan to have children, so his younger brothers who followed behind him would definitely not have a headache because of the problem of their eldest brother's children reverting to their ancestors.

Fortunately, Alex was about to be sent away, and the future would be smooth sailing… Big things were obviously going to happen in the Icefield Kingdom.

After Alex caused something like today, he would definitely not try to ask Leon for help again… Compared to Milan, a cousin was nothing.

That guy probably became complacent because he knew he was going back to be king.

Obviously, he looked down on Leon, a loser who could only be a border earl.

There was no way around it; this kind of stupidity was probably inherited from the Icefield Royal Family, even if it was neutralized by some of the cunning and ruthlessness of the Northern Lands Kingdom, could stupidity still be divided into more or less?

Even a little was enough to destroy a country.

Yuri, just wait and watch that future drama.

As for Milan's love problems, what value did that thing have other than to make his brothers laugh?

Don't think that Yuri forced Aruna to go to Gezhar Territory, but his heart was actually very calm.

However, he really didn't expect that woman to dare to contact Leon with a thick face after so many years!

He looked at the rows of twisted words with burning anger, and finally slammed the letter on the desk, looking at Leon word by word: "You, after reading it, what do you think?"

"No, I don't! Absolutely not!" Leon grabbed Aruna's shoulders and shook his head frantically, "If I had any feelings, how would I dare show it to you!"

That wasn't a problem.

Yuri calmed down a little.

"Whose… letter?" Aruna stretched out his hands and tried to pry off the pair of pliers on his shoulders, "I said, Leon, Brother Leon, look at my shoulders!"

"Uh…" Leon then realized that his swordsman brother was still very weak. He slowly let go and said softly, "That… woman in the palace."

Aruna actually had a feeling, after all, there were only a few things that could make Yuri furious.

Their second brother could show a calm smile even when Leon ruined a mission he had painstakingly taken on because of a moment of impulsiveness, not only failing to receive the final payment but also having to compensate people twice as much!

Although he would definitely make his eldest brother unable to find North for a month afterward, he wasn't really angry.

Aruna didn't need to think much to know what that woman wanted to do… If she wanted to connect with her son who had become a border earl, she should have come four years ago.

"For Alex?" He asked with a strange expression, "Those two, they're quite ugly, but they think quite highly of themselves."

"Not really ugly." Leon, answering rationally, directly met a pair of icy eyes, as well as the sympathetic and pitying gazes of his two younger brothers, as if looking at an idiot.

He quickly reacted and quickly said, "However, they don't look good enough for Alex to ignore at least a six-year age gap."

In fact, the youth of talented people would always last a little longer, after all, their whole bodies were full of various energies.

Although they would pay attention to it to some extent when arranging marriages, if there was no choice, six years was not a big problem.

The question of whether to call his wife aunt or sister seemed a little more serious.

But obviously, after so many years, the White Dragon King should be planning to send Alex an aunt as a wife.

However, when Leon became a border lord, it was estimated that those people in the capital understood that the White Dragon King still only intended to place Leon's lineage in the first sequence of heirs to the throne.

Don't look at Leon's side being exposed so obviously, but that's because their parents held their wedding ceremony after the White Dragon King took power, and the woman's family behaved more exaggeratedly.

They would hold celebrations every time a new royal grandson was born.

Otherwise, according to the White Dragon King's requirements, these should all be secrets… Many nobles didn't even know that Leon's biological father had a wife before, and had many children.

Although some things could still be figured out through Leon, not many people actually knew what was going on.

The things that the White Dragon King really didn't want people to know could definitely be hidden tightly.

But, if the person he was protecting was ignorant of his own death, he wouldn't meddle in other people's business.

For example, Leon's biological mother, who specialized in坑害 her own children.

It was estimated that the royal family had already begun to select the future Icefield Queen, but they didn't put Leon's two younger sisters into the selection circle at all.

Otherwise, this princess consort, who had been sitting firmly on the fishing platform, would not suddenly send a letter to her son whom she had long abandoned.
