A picture was placed in front of Eberron. It was a convoy coming from the Great Forest of Ufa, a logistics force transporting food. He raised his eyes and glanced at the prince in front of him, who still remained polite.
Smile.
You can't tell what he is thinking, this fourth prince is not an ordinary person.
Eberron frowned and said: "This may be the secret army of the Eagle Regiment. We don't know about it, but don't worry, we will investigate it."
Just when he was about to pick up the picture, the other party suddenly put his hand on it and then slowly moved it back.
"I believe your Excellency is not ignorant. As far as I know, the routes they take are all under the control of your country. On the contrary, we have not seen them from the north."
Eliel said with a smile.
"Who knows such a group of people? You also know what will happen during war. We don't have that much energy to take care of these people. They may be spies of the Eagle Regiment, or they may be some businessmen who make war fortune.
"
Eberron spread his hands. As long as he didn't admit it, a picture alone couldn't do anything to them.
Suddenly, Yi Lair frowned, hissed and said:
"And there is another thing that confuses me very much. According to records, last year there was a widespread drought in your country. More than 65 people were affected, and as many as 100,000 people died of famine. However, this year I found that
Aren’t the country’s grain depots very full? As far as I know, the relief grain distributed last month exceeded your country’s annual grain production, which is really puzzling to me.”
Hearing this, Eberron's eyes changed. Although every investigator would mention this matter, the man in front of him gave him a bad feeling.
"This is all due to the king. He has clever means to retain enough grain. How exactly he did it is a secret of our country. I can only say that I have no comment."
I saw Yi Lair slowly taking out a bag from the box placed aside.
"I think things are different from what you said. This is disaster relief food I purchased from a civilian."
He untied the bag and found wheat inside.
"This is fresh wheat, of average quality. This is definitely the goods of the gunmen, but in your eyes, it is just low-quality food distributed to the victims."
"I think you must have been deceived by a businessman."
The other party still showed a clear attitude of not admitting it. Yi Lair sighed softly. He took back the bag and pretended not to care and said: "To be honest, I admire you very much. You are from a low background, but you can
There are very few people who squeeze into the title of nobility. I think your life should not be limited to this. You have a bigger stage to show your strength, not in this... small place."
Eberron understood what he meant.
"Haha, I'm not young anymore. I can't travel around the world like I used to. When I was your age, I was still driving a carriage and doing business. Haha, looking back on that time, it was really amazing."
He said with a smile. The other person's compliment made him very happy, and he immediately started talking.
Yi Lair seized the opportunity and echoed: "It must be an experience full of thrills and opportunities."
"Yes, no one will believe me when I say it. I have encountered many dangers. I still remember one time that I took a dangerous route in order to transport goods to another city before other merchants.
.Guess what I encountered, a group of murderous bandits. Oh, at that time I thought I was dead, but then I had an idea and made a deal with them..."
Eberron proudly talked about past events, and he was very happy to tell them. In the story, he was smart, brave, and decisive.
While listening, Yi Lair pretended to be very interested and nodded.
Bang bang~
After Eberron finished speaking, Eliel clapped his hands and said in admiration: "Oh my god, these adventures are so... so beyond imagination. I really admire you for being able to think out solutions to difficulties so calmly and calmly.
method."
"No, it's just a little cleverness and luck."
"No, no, you are too modest."
Yi Lair raised his head, looked at the other party with admiring eyes, and said: "I am not surprised at all that you can sit in this position, and you have also solved a question in my mind."
"What question?"
Eberron suddenly became alert. He held his breath and listened carefully.
"Don't pretend to be stupid. I've met King Kingsley. He doesn't have the ability to govern this country at all. I guess you should put in a lot of effort."
Upon hearing this, Eberron's eyes suddenly curved into the shape of the moon.
"Hahaha, how could it be? I just... contributed a little bit of effort, it's nothing. Of course, I also have a little bit of credit for this."
He was very happy and it showed on his face.
Now is the time.
The corner of Yi Lair's mouth curved slightly and he said: "I really hope there is someone as knowledgeable and strategic as you around me. Alas, it's a pity that I haven't met such a talent yet."
Hearing this, Eberron was shocked and his heart beat faster. As a businessman, he smelled something.
The opponent is the fourth prince Luas. Although according to the tradition of the kingdom, the eldest son usually inherits the throne, the struggle between the royal families is fierce. No one knows who is the winner until the last stone.
Eberron swallowed, and his breathing became a little rapid.
Compared with Luas, Kalis is just a small mountain village, where there is everything and all kinds of amazing magic.
If...if he could assist this prince and make him a king...
Not to mention glory and wealth, he can transform into a real nobleman. The most important thing is that he can control the power he dreams of, which is completely different from now.
Ambition, desire.
Merchants will never be satisfied. Seeing the subtle changes on Eberron's face, Prince Eliel was secretly happy. For merchants, loyalty does not exist. As long as they have enough money, they can do anything.
"I...if I had met you before, I would be happy..."
Eberron's face suddenly became tense and he did not continue speaking. The prince saw the heresy.
"What's the matter? Lord Eberron, are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Hearing this, Eberron shook his head silently.
Ah, the prince understands.
He raised his brows, lowered his voice, and said, "Don't tell me there is something you can't say. Once you say it, you will."
The prince made a motion of wiping his throat on his neck, and Eberron was shocked.
This prince is a talented person and he definitely has the qualifications to become a king.
what to do?
The fear of the Demon King and the desire for money and status made Eberron fall into a deep entanglement. His heart was moved, and cracks appeared in the wall of his heart.
He was panting and now he was sweating profusely.
Finally, Eberron nodded and tapped the table with his finger. He pointed in a direction and signaled with his eyes.
Yi Lair looked in the direction he was pointing. Fortunately, there was no one behind him, and then he suddenly realized.
"I see, thank you, I will remember your help, Lord Eberron."
The prince smiled slightly and suddenly put something on the table. Eberron took a look and saw that it was a magic talisman, and it was only used by the royal family.
"My sister gave it to me. It saved me many times when I was little, but I don't need it now."
After saying that, he stood up, picked up his things, and left the room.
