Shiloh was extremely shocked. He didn't expect that the Cavendish family would be willing to give him such great assistance. Moreover, judging from Victor's tone, it seemed that these were just trivial things that didn't need to be taken into consideration.
He held Victor's hand and grinned almost to his ears: "Oh, how embarrassing is this? It's really... It's too polite to give these things to Connor based on our friendship, hahaha... Since the Cavendish family
If you think so highly of me, I would be disrespectful, hahahaha..."
Hilo's sudden enthusiasm made Victor feel a little uncomfortable. He twitched his palm hard before pulling his right hand out of Hilo's palm.
"Your Highness, this is all the Cavendish family can give you. What position you can climb to in the future depends on your own efforts."
Shiloh nodded hurriedly. In addition to congratulating Roddy on his birthday, his biggest purpose in coming to the capital was to find a strong ally. Unexpectedly, the Cavendish family sent it themselves. It can be said that someone gave him a pillow when he was sleepy.
, it’s cold and someone puts on clothes, it’s very comfortable.
After slowly calming down his emotions, Shiloh finally came to his senses. He licked his lips and asked: "Master Victor, if you help me like this, you don't know what I have to pay? After all, you don't have to pay for it in the current situation.
It is clear that among the many princes, I am the weakest. If you want to support a force, the eldest prince and the second prince will be better choices, why choose me alone?"
Victor chuckled lightly and said: "Your Highness, I have said before that the Cavendish family has not chosen any prince, and it is impossible to choose any prince publicly."
"The Cavendish family just thinks that you have great potential in the future, so they are giving you some help. It does not mean that the Cavendish family is on your boat."
"Just like Connor serves under you, Anthony is now under the second prince, and there is a nephew in the family who is under the eldest prince. This does not prove anything. After all... Cavendish is loyal to only one person, His Majesty."
Hilo was slightly startled, thinking to himself, the Cavendish family is really a bunch of cunning foxes, they picked him off so easily.
Victor looked at the nobles around him and said: "Your Highness, let's stop talking today. I hope His Highness Hilo can overcome the difficulties and win the victory."
Shiloh nodded and drank a glass with Victor. After drinking the cool and sweet fruit wine, Victor looked slightly tipsy.
"Your Highness, with the Cavendish family protecting you, you can feel at ease during your stay in the royal capital..."
“Never accept other people’s kindness easily in the future.”
After giving a hint of reminder, the chubby general turned around and left with Connor.
Shiloh stood there, feeling that everything happened too suddenly. Before he first entered the capital, he was still struggling with how to survive the wolves, but now he suddenly had the Cavendish family.
With the help, I not only gained confidence, but also received huge benefits. All of this is a dream.
Later, some nobles, large and small, came to propose a toast. Shiloh was smiling and did not refuse. However, he pretended not to know anything about the probing words of these nobles and just drank, filling himself up.
He smelled of alcohol, and his words began to be logically reversed.
Finally, the banquet was over, and after His Majesty Roddy announced the time for the birthday, everyone left. Shiloh took advantage of this time to secretly come to the balcony, enjoying the evening breeze, his eyes were extremely clear, and he did not look like he was drunk.
Not long after, he heard footsteps behind him, and the eldest prince walked towards him with a slightly red face.
"The third child."
"Brother."
The eldest prince leaned against the balcony fence and asked straight to the point: "Third son, has the Cavendish family taken refuge with you?"
Shiloh hurriedly denied: "Brother, you and I both know that it is impossible for the Cavendish family to take refuge in any prince. The old marshal just saw that I am weak and weak, so he just gave me a hand."
The eldest prince nodded, without any doubt, and said with a smile: "To be honest, I used to envy your life. Although in the eyes of outsiders, as a prince who is so ridiculous and extravagant, there will definitely be excuses, but they didn't think about it.
However, we princes have all been forced into this position, and even in the future, the tragedy of fratricide will have to happen."
"Everyone only thinks about power and profit, but they never think about what we really want."
Hearing this, Shiloh was also a little speechless. He thought about it carefully. If he hadn't time traveled to this prince, he would most likely have been an ordinary person, marrying a wife and having children, and ended his life doing nothing.
Since setting foot on the Gulfstream Island Chain, various things have happened one after another. The pressure of survival has left him no time to think about his life, so he can only carry the burden and walk down step by step.
This is true even now.
The eldest prince sighed softly. This was the first time that Shiloh saw a lonely expression on the eldest prince's face.
"Third brother, it would be great if we could go back in time, and brothers wouldn't have to think about so many intrigues... Hehe, but now it's not up to us. Even if your second brother and I don't want to fight, our men will force us to
Let’s fight. As for my father...heh, your second brother and I will definitely fight to the death in the future.”
"Third brother, although you stayed out of the matter before, you are now involved. The other brothers are still young and there is no need to worry about these things... How about you come and help me?"
"...Brother, if you win, what will happen to the second brother in the future?" Shiloh was silent for a moment and asked.
The balcony instantly became quiet, and the eldest prince's expression was gloomy and uncertain. Seeing this, Shiloh already understood the answer in the eldest prince's heart.
Shiloh sighed and said: "Brother, I just want to protect myself. If possible, I will only spend my life on the Gulf Stream island chain and never want to return to Pontos."
"Brother, if you think about the brotherhood we have had for more than ten years, how about you let me go?"
These words are the truth in Shiloh's heart. He really does not want to get involved in the struggle for the throne between the two princes, and he has no interest in the throne at all.
When the eldest prince heard Shiloh's rather childish words, he sneered and said sarcastically: "Third brother, third brother, even if the eldest brother doesn't force you, do you think the second brother will let you go? Do you think you can still protect yourself now?
Retreat?"
Shiloh remained silent.
"No matter what, I don't want to be your enemy, eldest brother."
The eldest prince scolded: "Childish! This is no longer a question of whether you want it or not. You are the prince of Pontos. In the future, we will either be friends or enemies... Hilo, do you want to be my enemy or my friend?"
"If possible, I hope that the eldest brother will always be the eldest brother."
These words seemed to poke the soft spot in the eldest prince's heart. His eyes flickered slightly, and finally he sighed.
"Since you have made up your mind, let's stop talking about it today."
