"Afonso's behavior is within our expectations. After all, uncle, you were not on his side at the beginning, so it is normal for Afonso to still be suspicious of you now."
Angke thought for a while and continued: "By the way, uncle, does Afonso have any special thoughts about your royal status?"
Hearing Angke's question, Andre was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said: "Anke, you have to make it clear that I do not have any royal status, or that I am not a member of the royal family on the surface.
Many people know that I am the illegitimate son of the old king; you must know that the name Andrei can not only ensure that I can maintain the last dignity in front of others, but it can also become a cage to restrain my ambitions.
"
Speaking of this, Andre sighed and said: "When I knew that I was the illegitimate son of the old king, I also imagined that one day I would be able to stand up and take power as an illegitimate son. After all, in the continent of Europa
On the Internet, similar things happened more than once; but my unrealistic fantasy did not last long, and the person who told me the truth, your nominal grandfather, reminded me - the name Andre
It has brought me a decent life, but when I no longer intend to live a decent life, it will turn into a death charm and send me to hell."
Looking at Andre with a serious face, Angke nodded in understanding.
At this moment, Andre and Angke had arrived at the gate of the camp.
"I have to go see Afonso now, so you go back first and wait for my news. By the way, call all your close friends to see if they are willing to be loyal to you. If they are all willing, then you can
Tell them your true identity and promise them huge profits, because you really need a team of your own now, so that we can get rid of those damn blood-sucking insects directly after we succeed."
Angke knew that the blood-sucking insects Andre was talking about were those nobles who were like grassroots.
"I understand, what should I do if someone is unwilling to be loyal to me? Should I kill him directly?" Angke frowned and said, "Although I have many friends, many of them are
Because I, no, it should be said that I am willing to be friends with you because of your status as uncle, so I am very worried that they will be willing to be loyal to me for a while, but as long as they can get more benefits, they will choose to betray me.
"
"Everything in the world is prosperous, and everyone is going there for the benefit of others."
Andre smiled and said seriously: "This is an old saying in the Eastern Continent. It says that the reason why most people in the world make friends with each other is because they feel that doing so can bring them some benefits;
To be honest, why did I become your father's good friend back then? It wasn't because your father was a great prince, and he would bring me a lot of benefits after he came to power. As for why your father regarded me as a friend, the first reason was not
Because I dare to fight and fight hard, and I can also help him take the blame."
Having said this, Andre couldn't help laughing again, "When your father first met your mother, he and I sneaked into your mother's house secretly, preparing to steal a sword from your grandfather.
As a result, I met your mother when I was about to succeed. In the end, if I hadn't taken the blame for everything, your father might not have been able to marry your mother, because your grandpa doesn't want to be in the same room with a thief like me.
.”
Hearing Andre say this, Angke couldn't help laughing, "I see, then I know what to do now. Uncle, just wait for my good news."
After Angke finished speaking, he rode towards his camp.
Looking at Angke's back, Andre couldn't help but murmured to himself: "Come on, kid, your father is blessing you in heaven."
After saying that, Andre dismounted and entered the camp, because except for some special circumstances, no one was allowed to enter the camp on horseback, and this was also the rule set by Andre.
"Sir, His Majesty the King is already waiting for you at the Chinese army tent."
As soon as Andre entered the camp, he met his nominal subordinate Gonzalez.
The reason why Gonzalez is only a subordinate in name is because Andre knows that Gonzalez is actually a monitor sent to him by Afonso VI, but Andre also pretends to be confused because he understands.
This has never been revealed, and he has become friends with Gonzalez on the surface.
"Oh, I will go and report to His Majesty the situation on the river bank now."
While speaking, Andre looked around, and after making sure there were no outsiders, he whispered to Gonzales: "Gonzales, did your Majesty have any reaction after hearing about what happened on the other side of the river?
Are you very angry?"
"Yes, after His Majesty knew that the Moors used trebuchets to sneak attack us, he was so angry that he wanted to send people to capture the opposite river bank. However, other generals have persuaded him to do so, but His Majesty is still not in a good mood now.
Good, because you also know, sir, that it was His Majesty’s idea to set up the vanguard camp by the river, and you and the other generals did not hesitate to persuade him at the time." Gonzalez replied in the same low voice.
"Then this is indeed a trouble."
While walking, Andre frowned and said: "Logically speaking, we really shouldn't set up camp by the river. After all, the width of the Tagus River does not exceed the range of the trebuchet, so even if it is separated by
Even with a river, the Moors can easily hit us with their trebuchets, and this won't happen just once."
"Sir, just tell me about this matter. Don't say the same thing to His Majesty, because you also know His Majesty's character. He will not change his decision casually, even if it is true.
It's wrong." Gonzalez quickly persuaded: "Just now in the Chinese army's tent, Marquis Ron was about to mention this matter, but His Majesty found a random reason to interrupt, and his expression was very bad."
Hearing what Gonzalez said, Andre couldn't help but stop and frowned even more tightly, "Yes, His Majesty is pretty good in other aspects, but sometimes he believes too much in his decisions, or in other words,
I don’t want to let outsiders dictate my decision; forget it, it’s better that I don’t get into trouble with Your Majesty.”
After saying this, Andre said nothing more, just patted Gonzalez on the shoulder, and then continued to walk in the direction of the Chinese army's tent, not caring about Gonzalez behind him.
