return to the throne

Seyes's knife and fork accidentally made a harsh sound on the dinner plate, and he threw the fork down with a dark face-this move is almost impossible for nobles who abide by etiquette, especially an old family like Braxton, They have been nobles since the founding of the Black Dragon, and they have passed the family down for hundreds of years. But at that moment, Seyes couldn't care less. His expression almost wanted to kill his son, and he glared at Eureka.

Linna couldn't help calling her husband's name in a low voice, "Says."

Seyes took a deep breath. "I'm fine, Lena."

Eureka's heart trembled, no matter how careless and ignorant he was, he finally realized that he had done something stupid at this moment.First of all, the princess who left sadly doesn't seem to appreciate his help.Second, both Adrian and his father were very annoyed by his behavior.

After breakfast, Carlos happily took his subordinates away, leaving Adrian and his party sitting at the dining table in silence.

Eureka stood up with lingering fear, "Father..."

"Where did you go last night?" Seyes asked.

Eureka dared not answer.

No one dared to speak at this time.Although Seyes looks like an ordinary middle-aged man now, when he was young, he was the bravest warrior in the Black Dragon Kingdom. When he stood up and stared at someone, his aura was enough to make anyone shudder.

"Go back to your room!" Seyes suddenly roared. "If you were not my son, you would have been hanged! Eureka! You should be glad the prince didn't order you to be executed immediately!"

Eureka's face turned red all of a sudden, he glanced at Seyes, then at Adrian, who was speechless, turned around and walked out in desperation, after he left, his brothers and sisters also Not daring to offend the furious father, the eldest Freya asked her mother for instructions, and left the banquet hall with the other children.

An unbearable silence fell on the three of them.

"Uncle." Adrian was the first to break the silence. "Things have already happened, and blaming Eureka will not help. What we should consider now is how to appease Carlos' anger and convince him that our covenant will continue to be fulfilled."

Seyes had a headache, "I'm sorry, Adrian, I didn't expect Eureka to cause this series of troubles."

Even when he met his nephew at the gate of the city, he didn't feel that the road ahead would be so bumpy, but now, the heavy reality seemed to block everyone like a big wall, and Seyes felt physically and mentally exhausted.

"I'm thinking, we're going to have a hard time, and I don't even know if I can fulfill my vow to your father." He couldn't help but lower his head and cover his face. "Adrian, my child... If I can't help you regain the throne, how should I face James when I go to see the God of Light? How should I face Margaret?"

"Please don't say such discouraging words, Uncle," Adrian said. "Remember? It's not that we haven't thought about this situation. We have already assumed that if Carlos wants to marry me, then what should we do?" .Now we are just following another set of plans, I guarantee that even if I leave Black Dragon, our goal will not be different from before.”

Seyes shook his head, "There's a big difference, at least if you're not around, it's hard for Emily to order those nobles who have evil intentions." All the plans they made were based on assumptions. Great confidence, but it is inevitable to be a little surprised in the actual operation. Thinking of this, Seyes couldn't help being a little disheartened. "The only thing we can be thankful for now is that judging from Carlos' performance today, he doesn't seem to be very angry with us. He didn't complain that you are the best. Adrian, as your family, I hope you You can live well in a foreign country, but what are you going to do next?"

Adrian sighed, "I can't see through Carlos, maybe he just shows generosity out of habit, maybe he is really as willing to fulfill as he said, but what is behind his plan, none of us know." I know." This thought made Adrian uncomfortable, but he didn't want to think about it, "In his opinion, we have tried to deceive him once, and we may deceive him a second time, even if we explain it to him. It was a misunderstanding, and he will not take it lightly, you should know that if he is so easy to dismiss, he is not Carlos of Aragon."

Seis became nervous, "So what should we do? We must not lose this ally."

"I understand, uncle, calm down." Adrian comforted him, "Of course I will do something, and I won't let the situation develop like this. I think, in order to let him understand our sincerity, we can only give He got more dowry as compensation."

At this moment, Adrian was too calm to talk about his own affairs.

Originally, he had prepared a large amount of dowry for this marriage, including the knight army escorting them to Black Rock City, and the valuable jewels and gold they hurriedly brought out from the palace. When the city of Lancaster was breached, Ai In order to prevent Paris Sterling's people from plundering the palace treasury, Derian directly melted all the gold coins into gold bricks and took them away.Afterwards, he went all the way south, and some loyal vassals and speculative businessmen sent a steady stream of gold coins, so in terms of money, Adrian did not have much burden.

But the money is not enough to appease Carlos who has been humiliated for no reason. They must give the other party other more important compensations to satisfy the other party. There is actually not much scope for consideration. For example, if there is one thing, if you offer it, Enough to make the meanest king laugh out loud...

"Land." Adrian rubbed his forehead in annoyance. Carlos' proposal this time really upset him. He still feels that the scene an hour ago was a mottled and strange dream. "Uncle, currently only Leicester has no lord in the southern region. It is rich in wool, and it is just right to use it to win over Carlos." Leicester in the south is still under the name of Adrian. Sturt, but he has not had time to launch an attack on Blackstone Castle and most of the south, so he still has the right to decide where they go or stay.

"Indeed, Leicester is more suitable than other regions. It is impossible for us to give him important minerals and granaries. Leicester produces wool, which is considered a decent compensation." Seyes agreed.

The two continued to finalize the remaining details of the dowry list, and discussed several reliable nobles. After that, Adrian really didn't have the energy to continue discussing with Seyes, and he planned to go back to his room to rest for a while.

At this time, Linna, who had been sitting quietly on the side, suddenly stopped him, "Adrian, please wait a moment." The older woman's eye circles were a little red and swollen. Obviously, when they were discussing just now, Linna was alone on the side. The voice cried, "Adrian, I know it's inappropriate for me to say this now, but have you considered who Emily will marry? Since she can no longer marry Carlos, then my son Yu How is Rika?"

Seis looked at her in shock, "Linna, do you know what you're going to say?" He raised his voice a little in vain, "That kid just got into trouble, and I just told him to leave, and you actually want Emily Marry him!? My wife! I don't know what you're thinking!"

"I know! Of course I know! But Seyes, please take pity on me as a mother!" Mrs. Lina cried, "I can't help it, Eureka committed a heinous crime for Emily Wrong, what else can I do as a mother? I can only hope that you can fulfill his ideas... Adrian, I know that Emily is your most precious sister, you cherish her very much and regard her as a treasure, believe it Me, me too. I swear, if Emily married Eureka, she'd be as comfortable here as she was in Lancaster..."
