Chris was standing in front of Reggie, the young waiter, who had just poured Reggie a glass of wine.
The two looked at each other for a long time, and Chris finally couldn't help laughing.
"Excuse me for being rude, but I actually endured it for a long time," Chris said with a smile, "The color of your hair is even brighter than the legend."
Reggie turned and looked at Edwina: "Can you give me a reasonable explanation?"
"The reasonable explanation is... this is the most reasonable method," Wen Na gave a very strange explanation, "My original plan was to discuss it with you first and then send the prince here, but every time I
It would be a big risk to do both, so I decided to do the two things together, which is obviously more efficient."
"What you said makes sense," Reggie smiled, then yelled, "Are you crazy? Do you want to start a war between Lane Country and Shattered Snow City?"
The living room fell silent instantly. The embarrassed Chris knew that he was not welcome, but now that he was here, he was prepared to be rejected by Reggie ten thousand times.
"Viscount Victor, I know that our current situation has caused you a lot of trouble."
"It's not a bother, it's a threat!" Reggie emphasized the word threat.
"I know that the kingdom has given you unfair treatment before."
"It's the Kingdom of Lane, and with your surnames, we don't belong to the same country now."
"I know that some of the Kingdom's previous inappropriate actions have chilled you."
"The word inappropriate is a bit too strong," Reggie sneered. "I think the word 'shameless' is more suitable for you."
"But..." Prince Chris's voice choked, "Forget it, I don't want to make any more excuses."
Reggie looked surprised and said: "Your Highness, do you want to cry? Do you feel wronged? Do you think my attitude makes you feel wronged? Look at the scars on my face, guess who left them? Guess
Guess what the Prime Minister’s attitude was when we first met?”
"Viscount Victor, maybe you don't know," Wenna said, "His Royal Highness once tried to help you."
Chris shook his head and said: "Stop talking, Viscount Sheila, I don't want Viscount Victor to thank me for this."
"I must say," Wen Na said, "You know, when all the ministers are thinking about how to please the Bayer Kingdom, only Prince Chris is thinking of ways to raise food for you. He quarrels with the ministers, and even fights with them.
The king fought against you, and for you, he offended almost everyone in the capital."
"Stop talking..." Chris covered his face and cried, observing Reggie's expression through the gaps between his fingers.
Reggie didn't seem very moved, and Wen Na continued: "His Royal Highness really helped you raise food, a total of two million pounds, but he was betrayed by the Minister of Finance, and he was escorted back to the royal capital on the way to transport food.
He was also imprisoned in a dungeon for three months."
The dungeon section was completely fabricated. In order to make the story more touching, Wenna and Chris discussed it all night last night and re-adapted every plot.
Sure enough, the adaptation worked this time. Judging from his expression, Reggie seemed a little moved.
Wen Na continued: "You will never know how much humiliation the prince suffered for you. He was laughed at by the prisoners, beaten by the jailers, and repeated your heroic deeds to everyone. The king originally planned to pardon him, but he
The king said that you are a hero, that you are the hope of the Kingdom of Lane and the real man of the Kingdom of Lane. He even wanted to lead his soldiers to fight with you. He angered the king again and was almost sent to the gallows!"
"Stop talking!" Chris burst into tears. "I know that I tried hard and tried to help Viscount Victor at all costs, but I failed. As a result, I ended up being known as the Demon Prince. This kind of thing has to be done by Victor."
Does Viscount Te know?"
"Wait a minute!" Reggie shouted to stop. Their performance seemed to be a little too much. "You were originally called the Demon Prince. This nickname has been with you for more than ten years. Do you think I don't know? Do you want to do this?"
Is this thing also blamed on me?"
Chris was startled, then continued crying: "Stop talking!"
Reggie stared at Chris for a long time, until Chris cried and ran out of energy, and then he said, "Come with me."
"Go, where?"
Reggie smiled strangely, raised his eyebrows and said, "Go to my bedroom."
"Uh..." Chris looked back at Wen Na and whispered, "The rumor that he likes men... you said that was false."
"Go quickly," Wenna glared at Chris, "At a time of life and death, do you still care about this little sacrifice?"
Looking at Reggie's shining eyes, Chris felt that his sacrifice might not be a little bit.
Arriving in the bedroom, Reggie sat on the bed and looked at Chris with strange eyes.
"Come on, come on."
"I've been there, I've been there, where have I been?"
"Come, sit next to me."
"I, I, I just stand."
"How can that be done, Your Highness the Prince," Reggie said with a smile, "How can I let you stand? Come on, sit next to me."
Chris sat tremblingly on Reggie's bed. He gritted his teeth and prepared to face the biggest challenge in his life.
After a moment of silence, Reggie suddenly stopped smiling and asked: "Your Highness, tell me what you want. If you want to take back your country, I'm afraid I can't help you."
"I'm not that greedy, Viscount Victor," Reggie suddenly said something serious, which made Chris relax a lot, "I just want a place to live, and a little food and water every day, that's enough.
"
Reggie said: "There is only such a small request. If I refuse you, wouldn't it seem too unkind?"
Chris is so smart, he naturally understands what Reggie means.
"My father expelled you, and now he wants you to take us in. I know this is not an easy task."
Reggie nodded and said: "It's very difficult, so difficult that you can hardly see any hope."
Chris bit his lip and said, "Can't you give me a chance? I beg you so much."
"Okay," Reggie said with a smile, "I'll give you three chances to see if you can find a suitable reason to convince me."
Chris took a deep breath and said: "I really admire you, you are the best among all the men I have ever met..."
"Your Highness," Reggie shook his head and said, "You wasted an opportunity."
Chris licked his lips and added: "Although we have never met, I tried every means to help you when you were in your most difficult time, although the results were not very good... But now is my most difficult time, you really
Are you unwilling to lend a helping hand?"
"Your Highness, I sympathize with your situation, and I am deeply grateful for the efforts you have made for me," Reggie said with a long sigh, "It's a pity that I can't bet Xuecheng's life for my personal feelings.
Safety, there are more than 5,000 people in Suixue City now, and their lives are entrusted to me. I'm sorry, Your Highness, you wasted your second chance."
Originally thinking that Chris would fall into long thoughts, Reggie was going to go outside and leave Chris alone for a while, but as soon as Reggie walked to the door, Chrissy spoke.
"What if it's for the benefit of Shattering Snow City?"
"Please be more specific."
Chris said: "Don't you want to get more land for Suixue City? Don't you want the people of Suixue City to live a richer life? Don't you want your people to have a strong country? I know.
You like the ores from Jinguang City and the girls from Zhilin City, don’t you want to own them? Don’t the people of Broken Snow City want to own them?”
Reggie frowned and said: "Your Highness, you don't even have a place to live, do you still want to entrust me with a territory?"
"It's not canonization, it's seizure," Chris said. "If you own the king of Lane Country, you will have a favorable situation in the war, and you will get the attachment and support of the lords."
Taking advantage of the emperor to command the princes is indeed a very convincing point of view.
"But speaking of the lord's support..." Reggie shrugged, "With all due respect, I don't have much confidence in your father."
"There is no need to hide it, he is a shit king," Chris said, "But Charlemagne is worse than him. Believe me, it won't be long before people will miss the original king. You can use us to do what you want."
You can even drive us away after using it."
Reggie was silent for a long time. He appreciated Chris' sincerity more than the temptation of interests.
He stood up, with an ambiguous smile, and reached out to Chris.
Seeing Reggie's smile, Chris closed his eyes. It seemed that some costs were unavoidable.
"Your Highness, don't you want to shake my hand?" Reggie smiled, "Congratulations, you have become a member of Shattering Snow City."
Chris opened his eyes, tears glistening in his eyes.
This time it's not about acting, it's about sincerity. He finally has a place to stay.
He stood up and wanted to say some words of gratitude to Reggie, but he heard the guard knocking on the door and saying: "Lord, the commercial officer has something urgent to ask you."
Reggie was surprised: "Old Hill is back so soon?"
The guard said: "Mr. Hill is injured. Our caravan was attacked by the Golden Eagle Kingdom."
