Mount and Blade

Green was shocked, this was a conspiracy! !

The Grand Duke is going to take action against Gulumberudo! !

You have to know what methods have not been used in China for three thousand years. This is a naked conspiracy, a replica of two peaches killing three people! !

Green secretly screamed and looked at Gulenberudo, Hickel, and Edward with displeasure.

This plan went smoothly. No matter how they argued, none of the three of them could escape! !

Sure enough, Edward let out a cry that sounded like a scream in the hall, "I want to give my mother to...! Please take a wife?"

Edward only felt that his chest was tight and tight, and the man's small self-esteem that he had hidden away was suddenly shattered. Originally, he was not as good as Gullenberg, just like a shadow, but now it's better. The brothers who were originally like brothers actually want to be his father! !

What man can accept this? ! Damn...did his asshole father have a trance? ! He doesn't allow it! !

"Wait a minute, who is Sickle's marriage partner...?" Edward clamped the messenger's shoulders firmly.

Seeming to be a little guilty, the messenger said intermittently: "Yes... he is the eldest son of the Olson family."

"The eldest son of the Olsen family?!" Edward's face was filled with disbelief.

That bastard who always took the lead in bullying him based on Furda's scandal when he was a child! ? Damn it! ! He will never allow it! !

Edward was immediately furious, like a crazy peregrine falcon, and his only right eye seemed to be spitting out fire. "This is absolutely impossible! This is a conspiracy, a naked conspiracy!" His voice echoed in the hall, Full of anger and unwillingness.

Shikel's face also became extremely ugly. She bit her lips tightly, her eyes showing determination. "I will never accept such an arrangement!"

Gulenberudo sat on a chair, his hands clenched into fists, his joints turning white. He tried to calm down and thought about how to deal with it.

Green was worried on the sidelines. He knew the complexity and danger of this situation. “We have to find a way to deal with it, we can’t just let it be pushed around.”

The messenger looked a little frightened amidst the anger of the crowd, but still pretended to be calm. "This is the Grand Duke's will and cannot be disobeyed."

"Can't disobey?" Edward roared angrily, "We worked hard for this country, and in exchange for this kind of treatment?"

At this time, the atmosphere in the hall was extremely tense, and everyone's heart was filled with anger and worry. They know that this is a huge crisis and if they are not careful, the consequences will be disastrous.

Edward, who had always been calm and collected, rarely lost control like this.

In addition to them, Princess Furda was also present. When they arrived at the hall, the envoy had not arrived yet. Princess Furda was also a little confused, so she followed.

As a bloodline of the royal family, Edward figured out what Grand Duke He Kun was thinking with just a little thought. The royal family's methods were actually used here by that old guy! !

...damn it! Damn it! !

Do you want to take even what he has? asshole!

No wonder Madhu followed him all day long and really thought he was a fool! !

This is taking advantage, and even more so, provoking! !

It didn't matter that he had never cared about his own existence. Even the only things he had had to be taken away. Edward's sharp eyes revealed a terrifying look.

The envoy was so frightened that he shuddered. Hickel was cold all over, but he used his cold hands to pull away Edward's hand on the envoy's shoulder.

"...Hickel?"

Edward had gradually calmed down at this time, and his crazy and distracted eyes looked at Hickel coming back to his senses.

"Why are your hands so cold? Hickel." Edward's hands held Hickel tightly, as if the tenderness deep in his heart was about to leave him.

He knew that Hickel was just as uneasy as he was just now. How could childhood sweethearts not know each other's inner thoughts at this moment?

Hickel did not answer, but just shook his head at Edward, his aqua blue eyes more melancholy than before, full of sadness and confusion.

Edward's heart throbbed, and then he regained his previous calmness. "Sorry, Lord Messenger, I just lost my temper. Please rest in the Fire Dragon's Lair for the time being."

"Yes...yes." The messenger responded with a trembling voice, and hurriedly left this place that looked like it could eat people at any time.

Edward squeezed Sickle's hand and rubbed it in his palm, trying to make her hand warm again, just like Sickle comforted him when he was a child.

Edward had never hated his powerlessness as much as he did now, and he had never longed for power so much.

On the other hand, although Furda was a little surprised, she looked at Gurenberg with seemingly affectionate eyes.

The moment Edward turned around, he noticed the change in Furda's face. Her sharp eyes became more gloomy, and her mental activities became more uncertain.

He knew clearly that this was He Kun's trick, but the Grand Duke was his biological father after all, and he didn't know how to make a decision. On the one hand, he is the person who has been determined to protect since then, and on the other hand, he is the blood relative who longs to be recognized by him.

Damn it...and looking at that stupid look on Gurenberg's face, he probably doesn't even know what's going on, right?

Do you want to kill him with the help of the Grand Duke? A terrible idea actually sprouted in my heart.

No, Grand Duke Hekun doesn’t just want to kill Gulenberudo now, right? He also wanted to take advantage of himself, otherwise how could Hickel be suddenly arranged for such a marriage? !

The so-called "betrothal and take wife" means that the king marries his wife or mistress to his retainers. Usually, only kings under the polygamous system can think of this!

Although it is meant to strengthen the relationship between the master and the retainer, in fact, it is just a royal method to eliminate the thorn in the eye. There are precedents for this.

However, from the perspective of ordinary people, this matter has another meaning. That is, the king is preparing to give up the throne.

If he didn't know that Xikel's marriage partner was the eldest son of the Olson family, and if Edward hadn't just confessed to Xikel a few nights ago, Edward would really think that He Kun was going to give up the throne to Gulunberu.

He Kun's calculations are really vicious. Is he going to drive his only normal son crazy?

Edward narrowed his eyes slightly. He never thought that He Kun's mind was more vicious than he thought. He really deserved to be from the dirty blood of the royal family, but... Edward admitted that he was almost crazy just now.

I must not let Xikel become a victim of this power game, Edward swore secretly.

He decided to sabotage the wedding, even if it meant going against his father, but he had to do it in a planned way.

Edward, who had regained his composure, began to plan in his mind. He could only protect Hickel by exposing Hekun's conspiracy, but if he decided to go against the Grand Duke, he had to give up some unnecessary things.

Although he had fantasized about the crown, he knew from Hekun's face that it would be a loveless road, and everything he did in the future... including marriage and love would be for political purposes.

Power is control, but also a shackle.

And what he really wanted was obviously not the kind of thing that made his heart empty. What he wanted from beginning to end was love that could enrich his soul... It was Hickel.

How could the offspring of the venomous snake not understand the means of his race? Although he didn't want to admit it, he couldn't deceive himself and make excuses for Hekun at the moment.

Compared to the crown, he longed for freedom more. He didn't know what Hickel was thinking. He wanted to take her away, away from this noisy place. He has both hands and feet, and the two of them have enough martial arts to protect their safety. If they leave with a small group of people and some property, it is enough to buy a manor on a continent.

If Hecker accompanies him, he would rather be a farmer who only knows how to farm.

Although Gurenberudo is not from a royal family, if the Grand Duke takes the initiative to abdicate and Furda becomes the temporary regent, it is not impossible for Gurenberudo, as the head of the Knights, to climb to that position with the recognition of the military and the high priest.

Moreover, Gurenberudo is deeply loved by the local believers in Grant.

"...Anyway, let's discuss this with General Kirstin first." Gurenberudo ignored the tenderness in Furda's eyes. He couldn't tell what he was thinking. He was not a guy who knew what love was, but he didn't want to get married so hastily. At the moment, he just felt a little confused and at a loss.

Gurenberudo just wanted to see the girl named Benettikut at this time.

If you feel confused, come to me. The girl's words echoed in Grunberdo's mind.
