Lord of Lowland

Chapter 238 The Prince's Attitude
Prince Rex chatted happily with the surrounding nobles, which was completely different from the happy atmosphere just now.The others were no longer interested in chatting, and were trying to listen to what Prince Rex and the people around him had to say with their own ears.Cecil was also eating absent-mindedly, but Prince Rex was very natural when he chatted with his surroundings, and he was not polite at all.

The people Prince Rex most sat with were his master, Duke Fatam, and his other close confidant, Duke Pressler. Prince Rex mainly chatted with these two people. These two people were also in no mood to eat and had nothing to do with each other. When I said this to the prince, the prince was full of praise for the cook at Duke Fatam's residence. As a result, the prince had already eaten the leg of a roasted suckling pig when the two of them didn't eat much.

Rex and the two Dukes talked about some insignificant issues, but as they talked, when talking about the kingdom's policies, Cecil listened carefully to Prince Rex's speech, and every word and deed showed that Prince Rex is a man with far-sightedness. Cecil, who has many political opinions, has to nod his head. From the outside world's reputation, he is far inferior to his brother Prince Lucas, but today Cecil Judging from what he saw and heard at night, Prince Rex can be regarded as a man with far-sightedness.Maybe Prince Lucas is better?Cecil couldn't help but start to have wild thoughts.

While Cecil was still thinking about something, he suddenly saw Prince Rex walking towards him with a bag in his hand.Cecil was shocked, and hurriedly picked up his wine glass and got up. Count Kasikud, who was beside him, obviously didn't expect it, and hurriedly got up and dodged aside, leaving his seat vacant to His Royal Highness who was walking over.

"Are you the Baron Cecil who has been so eye-catching lately?" The prince said to Cecil with a smile. Although it was a smile, it put enormous pressure on Cecil.It made him feel as if there was a strong coercion. It seemed that this Prince Rex was extremely extraordinary in terms of personal strength and ability.

"The prince is awsome, I am Cecil." Cecil gave a deep salute to Prince Rex, and replied neither humble nor humble. "I can achieve a little achievement, thanks to your appreciation, my lord king and my lord prince. You are willing to give me a chance, so I have a little achievement today."

"You are wrong." Prince Rex interrupted Cecil without hesitation, "You have nothing to do with me or my father's appreciation today. We appreciate you because of your ability, otherwise we would not I won’t give you opportunities, and if you do, you won’t be able to grasp them. There is an old saying that opportunities are always given to those who are prepared, isn’t it?”

After hearing this, Cecil hurriedly humbly said: "I don't have much ability, the reason why I have some achievements is all because His Majesty the King canceled the setting of deputy officer, which greatly improved the subjective initiative of each of our lords." Playing hard, striving for self-improvement, and striving for self-improvement, that’s why we have such achievements. It’s nothing to worry about.”

Cecil is very clever, so he mentioned the matter of the next generation of officials here to win the envy of the nobles.Cecil also kept a cautious eye, using his own example to explain that the system of acting officials is a stumbling block that hinders the development of the territory, and hopes that the majority of nobles can support the abolition of the system of acting officials, so as to better build their territories.

Upon hearing this, Prince Rex said with a smile: "I also know that the deputy official system has very serious drawbacks, and I am also very dissatisfied with this system. After getting rid of this system, Baron Cecil made such a The great achievement is gratifying. I was going to propose to His Majesty the King that this system should be abolished, but unfortunately I am so soft-spoken, alas, I will not say more.

As soon as this sentence came out, it was a time bomb. Not only Cecil stood on the spot in shock, but also the various nobles sitting below were talking about it.Prince Rex's statement is really weird, and the consequences he caused can be said to be completely unpredictable.

This sentence means that the prince affirmed Cecil's achievements because he got rid of the constraints of the acting official system. Although Cecil himself knew that this was not true at all, it is not the fact that it is not important. The important thing is how the prince judged it. The system is the most important thing.In other words, Prince Rex has made it clear that Cecil's achievements are entirely due to the abolition of the proxy system, which he agrees with.Not only did he agree, but he also wanted to write a letter to the king so that the king would also abolish it.This is really a shocking event.

So will Prince Rex really think so from the bottom of his heart? Cecil thought that if he really thought so, he would have seen a ghost. The proxy system hurts the interests of the nobles, but the one who gets the benefits is the king. and the royal family.This system was not established by the king slapping his head. It was after the open and dark arrows and even various wars with a big noble when the founding of the country. The founding king was stained with the blood of the founding heroes. Foundation.Now because of Cecil's few words, Prince Rex thinks it makes sense?joke.

Even Cecil can be sure, regardless of Prince Rex's vow to report to the king on the abolition of the proxy system, but he will definitely not do so. If he does, the old King Hareton can directly give him two big mouths .Who doesn't know that the old King Hareton has been in power for decades and is a defender of the system of acting officials. Except this time, Cecil and the other ten people have no choice but to use the system of acting officials.As for Cecil and the others, since the kingdom and the orc empire reached a peace agreement, they have been constantly put on by the king. Cecil's family can still support their big business, but the other nine lords can't hold it anymore.Therefore, if Prince Rex was smart, he would never raise such questions with the king, not to mention that the king himself chose his younger brother, even if the king chose him, if he dared to raise this kind of question now, then It is also enough to make the old king change his choice.

So why exactly did Prince Rex say that?Cecil's heart is the same as Der Spiegel's. The reason is very simple, that is, Prince Rex has completely fallen behind his younger brother Lucas in competing for the throne, and he urgently needs support for him.If he does not have enough strength to support her, he may not be able to compete with his younger brother at all. His speech is actually for all the nobles. I am afraid that his speech today will soon be spread. He, Prince Rex, is Support the abolition of the proxy system!
