Guidebook for the Dark Duke
Chapter 74
The turbulent tide at the lunch table did not affect the mood of the gentlemen. After lunch, several good gentlemen gathered in the Duke's living room in groups of three or four, sitting and chatting with each other. Of course, the Duke as the center, but there are only three or five people who can sit next to the Duke.
Colonel Mel and Evan are of course one of them, but besides them, there is also Lord Oram from London, he is the only son of the respected Duke of Field, he is only 25 years old this year, and he is already a famous hero in London Yes, he entered the House of Lords at the end of last year, and was still a colleague of the Duke.
"Your Excellency." Lord Oram said in a reserved tone unique to noble children, "My father conveys his sincere greetings to you."
Lord Oram was a very handsome young man with meticulous brown curly hair and bright light shining in his light brown eyes. He looked like a positive young man.
The Duke also seemed to like him very much, and nodded with a smile: "Your father is a gentleman I respect very much. It's a pity that he can't come this time."
When the Duke mentioned this, Lord Oram lowered his head and said in a deep voice, "My father also regrets not being able to come this time, but his body is still very weak and he cannot travel far."
"Is it so serious? Oh, this is really terrible, please don't be too sad." The Duke looked at Lord Oram in surprise.
In fact, everyone knows that although Lord Oram is the only son of Duke Field on the surface, Duke Field is not an honest man. He still has an illegitimate son outside, and it is said that he loves this illegitimate son very much. For the young Oram, the death of Duke Field is probably the best thing.
Oram smiled reluctantly: "Please rest assured, my father is a strong man, and he will get better."
Duke Wilson smiled flickeringly, will he get better?Oram has now completely taken over the political legacy of Mayfair's Duke. I'm afraid Duke Field will have no chance to get better again.
"That's good. I hope to see the Duke of Field again next year." Duke Wilson's tone was very sincere, and he really thought so in his heart. The only difference was that he didn't know at that time, who would come Which is the Duke of Field.
Lord Oram accepted Duke Wilson's blessing, and the two happily talked about the vicissitudes of the imperial capital in the past few days.
The old king was in danger, but Prince George was sent by the regent Duke Rand to inspect the Welsh area at this time. The whole kingdom knew that, as the old king's half-brother, Duke Rand had always been eyeing the throne. Although Prince George is the son of the queen, and he still holds a part of the military power of the imperial capital, if he cannot return to London when the king dies, I am afraid that the throne will be lost.
Now Prince George is already on his way to Wales, but the king's illness is imminent, and the true face of the Duke of Rand is finally exposed in broad daylight at this time, but no one can say anything at this time. Duke Rand trusts him very much, but he doesn't like Prince George very much. It was because of a mistress who had been separated from the queen for many years. To be honest, judging from the current situation, it is very critical for Prince George.
This kind of power seizure is very dangerous for most people who are doing it, not to mention Duke Wilson and Lord Oram who are related to the royal family. They are the best of the nobles. The crisis is also more deeply understood.
Even so, it is not appropriate to talk about these things on such an occasion. The Duke just talked with Lord Oram about his concerns about the king's illness and his blessings for Prince George's going to Wales. The other two Just by looking at each other, you can roughly understand what the other person means.
Lord Oram has a good relationship with Prince George, and he naturally supports Prince George. Although Duke Wilson seems to be neutral, everyone knows that Duke Wilson and Duke Rand have been sworn enemies for many years. Fighting against each other, at this juncture, naturally they will not support this violent regent.
"My lord duke." While all the gentlemen were taking a rest, Lord Oram suddenly said in a low voice, "Excuse me, can I have a private talk with you?"
Duke Wilson looked up at the crowd who hadn't noticed him at all, and then at Evan, who had a good chat with Colonel Meyer, and nodded subtly: "I'll be waiting for you in the study." His tone was nothing but No one could hear Lord Oram at his side.
Lord Oram's eyes instantly shone with joy. Duke Wilson was able to meet Prince George's confidant at this sensitive time, which in itself showed his attitude. If he could have a private conversation with Duke Wilson, then it is very possible. This decisive figure can be brought over.
Although Evan was talking happily with Colonel Mel, in fact, his energy had been devoted to Duke Wilson and Lord Oram.
When this lord appeared in front of Evan for the first time, Evan was actually a little confused. This lord is indeed a character in the story, but when he appeared in the book, he was already respected Field The duke is now, and this is what Evan knew during his conversation with the duke. Otherwise, Evan would have almost failed to recognize the duke who occupies a very important position in the second half of the book.
Lord Oram is the most profitable supporter of Prince George. It is not obvious now. From outsiders, it seems that they are just like all the related figures of the royal family. They grew up together and have a closer relationship than others. , but it’s hard to say which type to support. You must know that the biggest force supporting Prince George at this time is the Holy See and some civil servants. The nobles are still very cautious at this time.
But Evan knew very well how loyal Lord Oram was to Prince George, so that when Prince George came to power in the end, how powerful the future Duke of Field was.
Evan saw the small moves between Duke Wilson and Lord Oram, and he knew very well that the combination of these two people was unstoppable. Duke Wilson was a very smart person. Although the form seemed to be very unfavorable to Prince George, but He also saw the hidden dangers of the Duke of Rand. The Duke of Rand is not a clear-headed person. If such a person is allowed to sit on the throne of the king, it will be a disaster for the entire country. is a disaster.
Evan returned to his room, and Evan actually agreed with Duke Wilson's political choice, just because Duke Rand encouraged the Yorkshire mob to riot in order to destroy the strength of Duke Wilson who did not support him. It shows how crazy this person is.
In fact, from the author's description of this point, it can be seen that the rioting mobs are not just simple people, but also mixed with Duke Rand's private army. If not, it would not have caused such a big disturbance. The castle of Duke Wilson was burned down at one point, and Duke Wilson's subsequent revenge on these people also caused a devastating blow to the entire Delan Lille.
Evan couldn't help trembling. He absolutely didn't want such a thing to happen to him. In the original book, the premise of the duke's blackening was that the heroine was hurt, and little Edward also died in the riots of the mob. If such a terrible thing hadn't happened , maybe the Duke would be a little more sensible, and would not ignore the innocent villagers who were held hostage by the mob, and let the army rush into Delan Lille, causing innocent people to die under the butcher knife of the mob.
Evan clenched his fists tightly. Before, he just wanted to live better in this era and seek self-protection, but now he suddenly thought of Mrs. Sanders and Sheriff Chandler. Could it be that he Will you really sit back and watch something like this happen to them?Evan gritted his teeth tightly. Maybe he could maximize the indifference of human beings before, but now when he finally integrated into this world, he suddenly felt a little confused when faced with such a thing.
Evan looked down at his hands. Since he came here, he has been seeking how to make himself better, but he never thought that when he really likes these people in this place, What should I do, these people are no longer just a simple image as I imagined before, they have flesh and blood, feelings and souls, they are all living people!
What should he do, what should he do?Evan suddenly found that deep in his heart, there was only one answer to this question, and he had to change this result!
Evan stood up abruptly from his chair. If he wanted to change this situation, then the relationship between him and the Duke must never stop. He had to speed up his pace. Only when the relationship between them was established Feelings, if you want to change the future, you will be more confident. As he is now, he has no such opportunity to understand this matter, let alone warn the Duke about the direction of the matter.
Evan is a person with very firm willpower. Now that he has decided on one thing, his ability to act is also very high.
After the dinner that night was over, Evan invited the Duke who wanted to go upstairs to his room at night, and wanted to discuss some things with him.
The Duke's face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye, and when he finally agreed, his tongue curled a little.
And after Evan returned to the room, he took a shower immediately. He usually appeared in front of the Duke in a dignified and cautious state, and it was time to change the Duke's inherent impression of him.
After taking a shower, Evan didn't change into formal clothes in a hurry, but only wore a white shirt and a pair of trousers. The neckline of the shirt was loosely opened, revealing his beautiful collarbone. The steam was dense, slightly reddened, and even the originally meticulous golden curly hair was a little messy with a dry towel at this time, and it seemed to have a trace of decadence.
Evan looked at the strange self in the mirror and smiled with satisfaction.
Colonel Mel and Evan are of course one of them, but besides them, there is also Lord Oram from London, he is the only son of the respected Duke of Field, he is only 25 years old this year, and he is already a famous hero in London Yes, he entered the House of Lords at the end of last year, and was still a colleague of the Duke.

Oram smiled reluctantly: "Please rest assured, my father is a strong man, and he will get better."
Duke Wilson smiled flickeringly, will he get better?Oram has now completely taken over the political legacy of Mayfair's Duke. I'm afraid Duke Field will have no chance to get better again.
"That's good. I hope to see the Duke of Field again next year." Duke Wilson's tone was very sincere, and he really thought so in his heart. The only difference was that he didn't know at that time, who would come Which is the Duke of Field.
