Vol 4 Chapter 252: Dragon King's chessboard (Part 2)

With the heavy sound of the door shaft, the royal guard standing outside slowly closed the door.

There are only two solitary figures left in the empty Yuqian cabinet, sitting at one end of the long table, looking at each other at the other end of the table.

Brandon looked around from side to side, his eyes kept turning, and he pretended to hum tune in a soft whisper. He pressed the tension and uneasiness in his heart and tried to calm his breath.

Even after so long, Brandon, who was in the same room with his father again, was still on thin ice, daring not to indulge in the slightest; that inexplicably great pressure even surpassed his first encounter with the dragon Milasis. time.

Being swallowed by the dragon is just a moment of pain, and watched by Eckhardt de Salion ... You will feel naked, from the inner secret to the last trace of dignity.

Just like the fish on the board, let anyone slaughter.

Just sitting in this room, sitting ten steps away from his father, Brandon could feel the bitter chill and the strong **** smell.

"Your judgment on Loren Turin is accurate, he is really good at surprise us."

With a heavy voice, Eckhart II stared at his little son: "If it weren't for him, maybe Gaspar could really completely overrule the Turin family-at least we can win more chips for us, and worship En thirteen leaders negotiate. "

"As a result, we have time to mobilize the entire Principality of the South, completely resolve the war with the Centaur, and reproduce the" great conquest "of the second generation of Eckhart I, and now ..."

Eckhart nodded his head, and his sharp eyes gave Brandon a suffocating illusion; he could only look at the table and listen quietly.

"As you said, the entire Sky Vault discusses sanctions against Byrne at the moment, and it's just arguing about an impossible thing-we need them, we have no choice, it's that simple."

"I guess ... you must regret it now?" Taking a deep breath, Brandon tried his best to make himself smile easily: "If it was not the agreement with me, maybe you still have the opportunity to completely eliminate the scourge of Loren Turin. . "

"regret?"

Eckhart II's face did not show any emotion:

"Let me fill up this lesson for you, Brandon, as a most important lesson in DeSalem." Eckhart II's voice was very harsh:

"Just never think about what it would be like, what it would be!"

Brandon was slightly surprised, but still managed to squeeze out a smile: "Really? But just now your father said, 'If' without Loren Turin, maybe we can reproduce the great conquest of the second generation, How about Barabara ... "

Before he had finished speaking, Eckhart II suddenly laughed.

The sneer lasted for several seconds, causing Brandon to numb and creepy.

The blood-red double pupils exuded majesty like substance, examining another De Salion who had the same red hair and red pupils as him, without a touch of emotion:

"Connord ... he wouldn't say that; even if he had the same idea as you, he would hide this idea in his heart instead of speaking it out in person."

"This kind of speculative behavior with no return and extremely high risk, in addition to you being addicted to nothing for a while, will also cause the other person's nausea ... Your brother will never take this risk."

"And I would never be the kind of brother ... I'm Brandon de Salion." With a scalp, Brandon shrugged self-deprecatingly:

"Be careful, look at other people's eyes alive, calculate risks and return on benefits ... that's not me, I will never follow anyone's mind and look at anyone's eyes."

"More importantly, what else can I lose?" Brandon's voice never lacked self-mockery:

"Father's favor? Aunt's eyes? The trust of the nobles? The support of the ministers? The vassal and his territory?"

"Look, I'm a real beggar prince; someone who has nothing, never afraid of losing anything!"

Eckhart frowned slightly, revealing a meaningful expression:

"Even after someone you trust most has abandoned you and seized the Principality of Byrne from you?"

"On the contrary, I think he is more lovely now." His Royal Highness's face showed a childlike smile: "Lorren Turin in the past is like ... how do I describe it ... like a desireless Like the unsuspecting saint, it's not like it at all. "

"You know he will help you sincerely, you know he won't let you down, but you don't know exactly what he wants, but he knows exactly what you want ... This is very uncomfortable."

"As for the Principality of Byrne ... Yes, the Governor ’s system is completely bankrupt, but it does not mean that the situation is completely irreparable; at least Baine under Loren Turin is still willing to show friendship to the Empire; The Duke of the Territory wants to write his own position, he will need a lot of support from the Sky Dome. "

"This is our real advantage and the best situation my dear wizard advisor has won for the empire!"

Eckhart II listened quietly without interrupting him.

"Even the Centaur War is far from irreparable." Brandon shrugged. "It is true that without the expansion of the army, there is no legion support at the moment, but the empire's cards are never just elite. The "black wall". "

"Even at the moment, we can still call Archer, Light Cavalry and Light Infantry from Elleman and Lotel, and then return from General Ebden, hire two or three thousand mercenaries, plus half The Regiment, marching toward Poi in the name of the empire. "

"Such a‘ hybrid legion ’of 10,000 or 20,000 people ... the great conquest is certainly not enough, but it is enough to save the face of the empire.”

"If this Yuqian cabinet can't agree, it feels too costly ..." Brandon spread his hands: "When we still have the dragon, the dragon, spread its wings, I believe that the centaur will remember the ancestors of hundreds of years ago What a miserable end they are. "

Unscrupulous words echoed in the Yuqian cabinet, and Eckhart suddenly showed a meaningful look:

"You want real power ... to end this centaur war?"

"of course!"

Brandon didn't mean anything, and nodded "singles": "Of course I think, but this is simply impossible, right? You won't give me the command of the Guards, Cabinet and House I won't agree. "

"Even if you let me go, at most it's the same as Ebden's-I came quietly, walked quietly, waved my sleeves, and said nothing ..."

"Why?" Eckhart interrupted him suddenly.

"Uh?"

"Why not?" The Supreme Emperor looked at him intently, his eyes sharp:

"Yes, I can't give you the Guard Corps; but the three regiments guarding Jufeng Mountain are almost at the rotation, and I can give you their command to settle the Centaur War."

"Really ?!"

Brandon, an agitator, stood directly on the long table:

"You, are you lying to me?"

"You don't deserve to be done by me, Brandon de Salion." Eckhart II's gaze became sharp again: "There is no one in this world who deserves my deception."

Strongly enduring the impulse and desire to refute again ~ www.readwn.com ~ Brandon jumped off the table and sat back on the chair again, trying to calm down his heartbeat that was about to break through his chest, and a huge ugly smile was pulled from the corner of his mouth:

"I guess ... it's not costless, right?"

"Of course, if you want to get something, you must first prove that you deserve it ... so is loyalty, and so is power." The emperor said with a deep voice: "You have to use your own performance to win this rare opportunity."

"How ... win?"

In Brandon ’s extremely nervous heartbeat, Eckhart II ’s gaze became profound again:

"I remember, you are confident in your chess skills?"

"Uh, is it?"

"Very well, then we will have a period of three months." I saw that the emperor raised his right hand and extended three fingers: "In three months, if you win me, I will give you this opportunity."

"Otherwise ... I will take the lead and clear the green sea!"
