Chapter 1,762: The Duke’s decision. (2 more please customize)

Night falls, the Principality of Chama is shrouded in darkness, and there is no one on the streets of the royal capital at the moment.

In the Duke's Palace, the Duke of Kansas was in his study, lighting a weak candle and sitting at the table reading.

After dinner, he came to the study alone. Of course, the books he read were bought from Chang'an City.

This has been the case for the past few days. After returning from the palace, I have been hiding in the study after dinner.

The Duke of Kansas looked at the book in his hand and murmured to himself,"This is not the way to go."

When he went to the palace these days, he was always scolded by King Zhatu. Although he was good-tempered, he always It doesn't matter to me, but over time I still feel a little tired.

He began to doubt whether it was right to continue staying in the Principality of Chama, and whether it was right for his family to swear allegiance to the Principality of Chama. This was a question he would think about every night while reading in his study.

As for the upcoming war, he has no bigger worries. Even if it is embezzled by the Man'er Principality, he doesn't think it is a big problem.

Because he could foresee it, no, rather than foresee it, it would be more like it would definitely happen.

The decline of the Principality of Chama to its present state was all caused by King Zhatu. How long can a kingdom last long with an arrogant, arrogant, and unwilling king?

In fact, everyone can know that it is impossible for the Principality of Chama to defeat the Principality of Man'er. Of course, it is another matter with the help of the Han Dynasty, but it is impossible. The Han Dynasty refused the help.

The Principality of Chama is only peaceful on the surface now, but the interior is already riddled with holes. Even without the Principality of Man'er, in just a few years, the entire kingdom will become the weakest kingdom, and anyone can bully it.

"You have to find a way out for yourself."The Duke of Kansas closed the book and said.

Ever since the old Duke declared his allegiance to the Principality of Chama, he didn't quite understand it as a child.

Why among the three principalities, his father would choose the one least suitable to be the king and swear allegiance to him. The entire family was loyal to the Principality of Chama for generations.

It was not until the old Duke passed away that he suddenly realized after seeing the diary written by his father that all this loyalty was due to King Zhatu's enfeoffment.

At that time, the old Duke was just an ordinary person. He was just an earl, but he was very popular, and the former king took a fancy to this. As long as he won over the old duke, he could gain the support of many nobles.

Therefore, the old king gave the old duke a particularly large noble title, and many more. He had a small amount of wealth and territory, so he had the noble title of Duke of Kansas today.

"Knock knock knock......"

The Duke of Kansas was brought back to reality by a knock on the door,"Come in"

"Crunch!"

"Sir, why don't you take a rest after it's so late?"The Duchess said softly, still holding a cup of tea in her hand.

The Duke of Kansas shook his neck a few times and said,"Why don't you rest?"

"That's almost it. I just wanted to come to the study to see you before going to bed, but I knew you weren't asleep yet."explained the Duchess

"Well, after you put down the tea, you can go to bed early. You don't have to stay up late with me."The Duke of Kansas said gently.

The Duchess shook her head, helped the Duke relax his shoulders, and said,"Sir, it's okay. I can't sleep anyway. Seeing the troubled look on your face, if you don't mind, I will stay with you for a while. meeting."

The Duke of Kansas nodded lightly and said,"Okay, then you stay for a while and then go back to rest early. The

Duchess smiled slightly, turned her eyes to the book on the table, and asked softly,"My lord, are you still reading this book? You have been reading this book for the past few days.""

The Duke of Kansas picked up the book, opened it to the place he just saw, and said,"This is a good book, worth reading carefully every day."

"Sir, is Chang'an City really good? Since you came back from the Han Dynasty, sometimes you always talk to yourself, and every time you mention Chang'an City. asked the Duchess curiously.

"Of course, Chang'an City is really nice."The Duke of Kansas said without thinking.

The Duchess nodded thoughtfully and said,"That's it, but the things you brought back are indeed very good, especially the mirror. I really like it."

"Just like it, I'll bring some back next time."The Duke of Kansas nodded and said

"Sir, do you want to go to Chang'an City again? If possible, can I go with you this time?"The Duchess expected

"It's just a plan, but I haven't decided when to go. After all, I just got back and I don't have much time. Of course, if I go, it's no problem to take you with me."The Duke of Kansas nodded.

The Duchess nodded excitedly and said,"Great, we can bring Alex and Trisilia, they will be very happy."

Erics and Trisilia are both children of the Duke, a pair of twins, about fifteen years old, both of whom are very smart.

"Of course you can, but next time you may not just visit Chang'an City."The Duke of Kansas said seriously.

The Duchess stopped massaging her hands and asked doubtfully,"Sir, what do you mean by this? Could it be?"

"It is possible that we will stay in Chang'an City and live there in the future."The Duke of Kansas said every word.

The Duchess's eyes widened and she said in surprise,"My lord, have you really decided? When I mentioned this topic to you before, you always avoided it."

It's not like she hasn't told the Duke about this problem. Every time she sees him coming back from the palace, his face is not very good. But since he went to Chang'an City, the smile on the Duke's face has increased.

So I discussed this issue with the Duke. The old Duke has passed away, so we can actually let go of the oath of allegiance. People are selfish, and of course they put themselves first.

After all, it's not about them now. They have a pair of children, and they have to think about them. It's impossible for them to live a useless life in the future.

"Let’s talk about it again, but you have to believe that it won’t take long."The Duke of Kansas said in a deep voice.

The Duchess nodded heavily and said,"Yes, sir, everything is at your discretion."
