"It's good that you can realize how powerful the other party is. This proves that you know it well." Xingge nodded, and then said, "This generation of Shillington family is neither strong nor weak. They are the eight nobles in the royal capital.
He is a powerful person within the country. Marquis Shillington is also a member of the cabinet and minister of construction, and has a very close relationship with the king."
"But among the eight nobles, the other seven nobles combined are not as strong as that one."
Xingge asked the maid to pour a glass of red wine, then came to the window, looked into the distance, and took a sip of red wine with a smile.
"If things go well, I will become that person's ally." Luther smiled and shrugged.
Because of his own strength and level, Luther was able to seduce almost all the great nobles among the eight great nobles, but there was only one great noble that Luther could not do.
It's the person Xingge talks about.
One of the eight nobles, the Grand Duke of the North.
The whole of Prussia is now divided between the monarch and the ministers, and the appearance and appearance are separated. This is because a major event happened in history.
This big event happened more than 200 years ago, between the previous generation of King of Prussia and the previous generation of the Northern Archduke. In this war, the previous generation of Northern Archduke narrowly won, and the previous generation of Prussian King was disgraced.
The vassal defeated the king, which caused the king's prestige to plummet.
So far, the Kingdom of Prussia has become such a situation.
This Grand Duke of the North sits on the five northern provinces. This Grand Duke of the North is the protector of the great nobles on the ground in the kingdom and the most threatening noble on the ground.
In addition, the Marquis of Cambridge in the west has a fiefdom in one province, and the Marquis of Cambridge can control the local nobles in another province. It means that the Marquis can control the military power of two provinces.
The Marquess of Cambridge and the Duke of the North joined forces to confront the king.
This is the most important reason why a province like Orange and the Libyan Count family can remain independent even though they are not strong.
The Grand Duke of the North, protector of all nobles in the land.
If the king dared to touch the Count of Libya, the Duke of Northland would join forces with the Marquis of Cambridge to send troops to threaten the king.
And if Luther obtains a title and becomes the only three nobles in Orange, he will also become an ally of the Grand Duke of the North and an opponent of the king.
Of course, that is something that will happen in the future. Now the king and the local nobles are on a united front because of the rise of the new party.
If we do not unite to deal with the new party, the kingdom will be destroyed and all the nobles will not be able to survive alone.
What lies before Luther is a huge game of chess. But before that, Luther must take advantage of this opportunity to obtain a title.
At least get a viscount.
Allies and enemies.
You can change your identity and position in the blink of an eye. Politics is a very complicated thing.
Old Saul was beside him and could understand, but he just didn't speak and just ate the cake.
Anyway, my son has grown up, and he is scheming and very like me back then. Old Sol thought to himself as he picked up the juice and drank it.
"Gulu, Gulu." Alena had already finished the juice, and then happily said to the maid next to her, "One more glass."
"By the way, I'll have another piece of cake too. By the way, I want the strawberry flavor." Alena looked at the empty cake plate again and added.
My feet swayed happily.
"Yes." The maid wanted to laugh a little, but she held it back and responded and went to refill the meal.
Luther looked at these two foodies and twitched the corner of his mouth, which completely disgraced our family.
"It's almost noon, let's have a meal first." Xingge was also happy for a moment, and then ordered the valet to go and prepare a big meal.
All the people in the group were big eaters, so they ate a lot for lunch and it was time-consuming.
An hour and a half later.
When everyone had eaten and drank enough, picked up toothpicks to pick their teeth, and picked up napkins to touch their mouths, the news came back.
"The young master is a member of the Shillington family. His name is Lucy Shillington, a senior knight. He doesn't have much fighting power, but he is good at using the reputation of the Shillington family to do some shady things. He has made a lot of money.
.”
The butler said in a low voice.
"I knew that the person who did this was just a pawn. After all, Shillington is one of the eight nobles. Their top figures disdain to engage in these shady businesses, especially this small business."
Luther said.
The mastermind was found.
But the Shillington family is not irrelevant. If it weren't for the prominent name of Shillington, how could this guy named Ruthie Shillington dare to do this kind of business?
Today I not only want to kill this Lu Xi and Shillington, but I also want to follow the clues and feel the tiger's beard of the Shillington family.
"Let's go, kill him. Make a fuss about Xiao Baicai." Luther suddenly stood up from the chair, then remembered that he hadn't wiped his mouth, picked up a napkin, wiped it, and walked out.
"Do you know where he is?" Xingge shrugged.
"Uh." Luther turned back a little embarrassed and looked at the housekeeper angrily.
"No. 77, Arnold Avenue," the housekeeper said.
"Let's go." Xingge stood up and walked out first. Luther, Old Sol, and Alena also walked out.
The King of Eagles stood on Luther's shoulders, while Alena jumped up and down, looking around. She stared at the shining golden decorations in the mansion.
Not only was she full, she also wanted to steal something.
"The relationship between the master and Xingge is so good, even if I am caught stealing, I won't be beaten to death, right?" Alena was eager to try.
…………
Arnold Avenue.
The houses on both sides of this avenue are all independent villas. However, this street belongs to a remote area of the royal capital, so the people who live here are rich and have a certain status in society, but they are not rich.
Villa No. 77.
This villa is of first-class quality among nearby villas. It covers an area of about one and a half acres and has a white villa with twenty-three rooms.
There is a small lawn in front of the villa.
In front of the gate, there are two knights guarding the gate, which is quite impressive.
The owner of this villa is none other than Lu Xi Shillington.
This distant branch of the Shillington family is fifty-two years old and a senior knight. In a large family like Shillington, a senior knight in his fifties is certainly a mediocre person.
In fact, Ruthie Shillington had a lot of troubles when she was young because of her mediocre qualifications. Until Ruthie Shillington discovered that the reputation of the Shillington family was extremely useful, so he successively did a lot of things and made a lot of money.
Made a lot of money.
Finally, he bought the mansion No. 77 on this avenue, married a beautiful young wife, and gave birth to three children.
Moreover, Lucy Shillington gradually became an overlord of the dark forces in the Royal Capital City, specializing in some shameful deeds.
