Magic Underachiever

Marquis Whitehead looked at Brown Jennings with an appreciative smile on his face, like an approachable elder, which was also the impression he usually gave people.

He is an important minister of the empire, but most of the time he does not have the airs of a superior. Everyone knows that the Marquis likes talented young people. No matter whether the young man is from a noble family or a commoner, as long as he thinks you are useful to the empire, he will promote you... …

He discovered many young talents for the empire, and then used these young officials to promote the empire to reform some backward old systems. He was a leader of the imperial reformists.

Brown is a ninth-level senior magician and is now the vice-president of Pier Magic Academy. After the merger of Pier Magic Academy and Saroyan Academy of Magic, he will definitely join the management of the expanded Saroyan Academy of Magic.

He is young and promising, and will surely prosper after marrying the daughter of Governor Marcellus.

As long as Marquis Whitehead can return to the empire safely, Brown will definitely be able to join the imperial cabinet in the future given his current age.

And Miss Anne is so beautiful...

Everyone sighed in their hearts: Brown is really a winner in life!

Anne walked up to Marquis Whitehead with Brown on her arm, her eyes warning her father not to have any excessive thoughts about Brown.

The Marquis just smiled and did not respond to Anne's warning.

He was really curious about this Brown Jennings. He knew very well that Brown and Anne had never met before. Why did Anne suddenly send a telegram saying that she was engaged to Brown?

Anne is not a child from an ordinary family. Her engagement to Brown can be said to have an impact on the politics of the entire Fromink Empire. But she stood by her decision and didn't give any reason.

Marquis Whitehead knew his daughter very well, and her willingness to be engaged to Brown meant that Brown had a higher value than this.

Therefore, after the Marquis promised Anne, he immediately investigated the Jennings family.

The Jennings family is a military family, but they have never produced any high-ranking military officers for generations, and the children of the family are all good warriors.

There is nothing special about this family and its history

When the Marquis personally summoned Baron Jennings, he did not find that this family had any high value.

There is also Reed Jennings, a graduate of the Imperial Royal Military Academy, a lieutenant company commander in the Royal Fusiliers, an ordinary low-level officer.

So... what Anne is interested in has nothing to do with the Jennings family, but Brown himself.

Seeing Anne's nervous look at this time, Marquis Whitehead was even more convinced of his judgment.

"Brown..." The Marquis cordially shook Brown's hand and said: "This is the first time we have met. I am very satisfied with you. Anne is very willful. I have always been worried that she will like those bastards who only use sweet words to trick girls into pleasing them. , but after seeing you, I felt relieved.

Now that I have also come to Saroyan, we can often have morning tea together and chat about your views on this city and country. "

When Brown was about to answer, Anne said first: "Father...Brown is really very busy. You know he is the deputy director of the Pier Academy of Magic and also serves as a professor of the Junior Ministry of Magic.

I'm afraid he won't have time to chat with you until the new semester starts.

And Brown has little interest in politics, and you have nothing in common. I think you should talk to Speaker Peters now. He seems to have something urgent to tell you. "

Marquis Whitehead turned around and saw the speaker with a very bad expression coming to him.

"Your Majesty the Marquis, your banquet was very well organized. But I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable... I'm sorry, I have to leave early."

Speaker Peters, who came to attend the banquet, has always been concerned about the transfer of weapons from the Azure Cathedral, so he always paid attention to the sky outside from the window when dealing with various people who came to chat.

When the red signal flare went up, he had a bad feeling. When he saw more and more signal flares rising, many of which were not set off by his own personnel, he knew that there was a big problem with today's plan.

All personnel involved in transferring weapons are retreating quickly. It is impossible to transport the weapons in the church at this time.

Speaker Peters now needed to know what was going on outside. He wanted to leave quietly, but was stopped by the soldiers guarding the door.

"The Governor has ordered that no one can go out until the banquet is over."

Everyone is under house arrest here.

I don't know what Marquis Whitehead did tonight. Speaker Peters knew that he couldn't stay here any longer, so he found the Marquis and made up an excuse.

After hearing that the Speaker told him that he was not feeling well, the Marquis said with concern: "At this time, all the hospitals in Saroyan City must be closed.

Fortunately... there is my personal doctor in the Governor's Palace, and the Speaker can let them take a look. You have been working on the government affairs of Marcellus Province for a long time, which is a very heavy burden on your body. If you are really seriously ill, it will be a great loss to the empire.

I suggest that you have a good check-up with my personal doctor. It is best that you take some time off from work. "

How dare Speaker Peters allow the Marquis's personal doctor to see a doctor? He might be able to detect a disease even if he doesn't have a disease. The speaker turned around and said: "Your Majesty, this is not a serious problem. I have medicine prepared at home. I can just go back and take the medicine myself. In addition, I remembered that there are important things that I need to deal with..."

The Marquis would never let Speaker Peters leave at this time. He said, "My people told me that there seems to be some trouble in the Azure City. It is too dangerous for you to go home now. Why don't I send someone to the Speaker's home to get medicine? There are silver wings in the Governor's Mansion. We can fly directly there... very quickly.

And in the entire Marcellus Province, nothing is more important than my inauguration as the Governor of Marcellus.

Let them continue the banquet here. Let's go to the conference room on the second floor to discuss my inauguration ceremony tomorrow."

Speaker Peters knew that he had fallen into the trap of Marquis Whitehead. Even if he wanted to know what happened in the Azure Cathedral, he had no way to deal with it because the people inside could not get out and the news from outside could not be sent in.

He could only admit defeat!

This cabinet minister who was relied on by the emperor of the empire was indeed not simple.

No longer distracted by the outside world, the Speaker took the same position as Marquis Whitehead and said: "No need to send someone to my house to get medicine, I feel much better.

In the past two days, nothing is more important than the Marquis's inauguration as Governor of Marcellus.

I also look forward to... Parliament and the Governor's Office working together to lead Marcellus into a more glorious era."

"Please..." Marquis Whitehead made an invitation.

Speaker Peters and Admiral Priestley led the military and political leaders of Marcellus to the second floor together.
