Throne Steps

The fight between Saenz and his father wasn't surprising, at least Li Chen wasn't too surprised.

These two people have different goals in power, and there are conflicts between them that are not too big but difficult to reconcile, and it is normal to confront each other during the transition period of power.

What Li Chen was more puzzled about was that the father and son actually went directly to fight in person, which didn't fit the character design.

Saenz didn't think this was a problem: "It's impossible for him and I to be deadly enemies, so we can't order the people below to do something to him, right? Why don't I do it myself, and I know what the outcome will be."

Li Chen thought about this, even if father and son beat each other to death, wouldn't they still be father and son?People outside can't control it.Saenz thought so, and Vagcheno thought so too. Anyway, he just tolerated the other party for a long time, so he simply showed his attitude.

However, this fight was not secretive. Just kidding, the majestic power of these two people caused such a large fluctuation of magical energy that it was impossible for any talented people nearby to be unaware.Before Li Chen came to see Saenz, the rumors of the feud between the two Patriarchs of Pure White had already been rampant in a certain circle.

Now that everyone knows, it's time to stand in line.

This time standing in line is not an absolute confrontation, it just depends on which of the father and son's thinking is more supported.After all, Saenz did not break with his father, so it is even more impossible for those who stand in line.

Of course, if everyone falls in the direction of the Patriarch, it is not impossible for him to try to weaken Saenz and replace the heir.

There are two reasons why he does not change now: First, if Saenz is down, Jose may not be able to beat Fujalal. If the two stalemate, he will not be able to decide the heir quickly. I feel like I can’t choose a new king, so I will continue to support him. The same is true for the great nobles of the royal family; the second is that Saenz is powerful enough, and he really can't pull it down now.

"But your fight is too powerful..." The only time Lichen saw Saenz in a wheelchair was during the war, and it turned out that Vagchenau could beat Saenz like this by himself, which shows that a pure The color of white is worth an army and it is true.

"It's just taking the opportunity to vent your anger and teach the other party a lesson." With Li Chen's support, Saenz sat on the side of the bed from the wheelchair, "He thinks so, and I think so too."

"What you said seems to make sense, but I still don't understand you father and son." Li Chen paused, "Speaking of which, I've been holding back a question for a long time. Today's topic is here, so I'll just ask by the way, Don’t hit me if you don’t want to answer, okay?”

Saenz saw that he was deliberately hesitant to speak, and laughed: "I won't hit you, just ask."

"That's right..." Li Chen faltered for a while, and after playing enough hesitation, he asked, "The age difference between you and your brothers and sisters is not that big, you are still different biological mothers, Lei Di A League is still monogamous Uh, uh, can I ask this?"

"You want to ask, why did the owner change three wives in a short period of time?"

"I guess..." Li Chen himself felt that this question was too gossip.In fact, the answer has been spread in various ways, and Li Chen has heard a lot, but today he suddenly wanted to hear the facts, at least what one of the parties believed to be the facts.

Originally, Saenz and Lairier are only two years apart, and the twins are six years apart. This is the result of three wives under the monogamous system. It is doubtful that the time is so tight!

Saenz slowly sat on the head of the bed, patted his side: "You come up, I'll tell you."

He was so injured, Li Chen was not afraid of what he would do, anyway, he would be called back by Yan Ling if he slipped away now, so he should be more straightforward.

So Li Chen climbed up.

Saenz asked him to take off his coat and trousers again, and went directly under the quilt.

Yes, we have to provide sleep service tonight.Li Chen obeyed resignedly.To be honest, probably because Saenz looked much worse than usual, Li Chen always felt that there was no threat.

Unexpectedly, just as he sat down under the quilt, Saenz pounced on him.Well, to be specific, it should have turned over and pressed up.

Saenz didn't have much strength and couldn't suppress him forcibly, but also because he didn't have much strength, his whole body weight was on Li Chen.

This is a pressure of less than [-] kilograms!

Li Chen was completely covered by him, almost breathless.Fortunately, Saenz moved halfway down after enjoying himself for a while, otherwise Li Chen would have suspected that his ribs would be broken.

"The head of the family and my mother met in the mercenary regiment."

Saenz suddenly started to gossip, and Li Chen's attention was all turned away.

"It was said that they were just acquaintances at the time. The most I heard was that they just had feelings for each other, but it was nothing. Only they know the truth." Saenz continued, "But the owner of the house was still engaged and married to Rose Color. "

"I heard that the color of rose is the root cause of her body's illness when she gave birth to Lailier, so she died soon?"

"That's it."

"This is very strange." Li Chen wondered, "Rose's health has not been good?"

"I haven't heard a very well-founded statement about this." Saenz replied, "But Fire Rose married the owner of the house less than a year after her death."

That's great, the Lei Di A Alliance is also too casual.

Li Chen cautiously asked: "The time is so short... and you were born soon, won't the fire rose be questioned? And they met in the mercenary group, once the news came out, even if it was nothing None, but it’s easy to be called black by people.”

"Who said it wasn't?" Saenz sneered, "You know the temper of Raging Rose, so they divorced when I was less than five years old."

"Then when you were less than seven years old, Jose and Hena were born..." Li Chen said with emotion, "The efficiency of the Patriarch is admirable."

"Because he plans to have three heir candidates." Saenz's tone was indifferent, "enough is enough, he will not have any more children. Why do you ignore the female officer next to him because she knows that the Patriarch will not?" Just come up with another heir."

Li Chen thought for a while: "So, there are rumors that he has seen some nightingales..."

"Not so many, but I believe in one or two of them." Saenz sneered, "He is so unscrupulous in marrying his wife, is he still afraid that others will say that he saw Nightingale?"

"... Well, looking at his face, I really can't imagine these plots." Li Chen replied, "But if you say it this way, I think it's normal for him to be obsessed with power."

Looking at the leopard from the inside, the owner of the house is indeed a person who does his own way, has a strong control and desire to control.Not to mention anything else, just from the fact that the Patriarch can control the number of heir candidates even if he changes his wife quickly, we can see his ability to control himself and others.

"It's not that his face is deceiving, it's that the inherent impression of pure white color is too deeply rooted in people's hearts, and even you can't be completely spared." Saenz replied, "However, it's good for him to be like this, so that I don't have nothing to do. "

Li Chen was speechless for a few seconds, then quietly replied: "You have struggled for decades to get the position, and now you say you have nothing to do?"

"It's boring because I've already got it. The next step I planned was to overthrow the royal family, but now that it's cancelled, it's inevitable that I'll be disappointed." Saenz replied seriously, "The little prince has no challenge. It's only been a few years, and it's been a while." If you tell him to go east, he won’t go west.”

Li Chen said helplessly: "So you are a masochist? You are happy after being beaten by your father?"

"If I have to say it, it's more fun to play." Saenz said with a smile, "Guess how he will arrange me for the people who come to visit the doctor?"

Li Chen sneered: "You are not happy because you have something to open your heart, but because you have someone to plot against."

He answered irrelevant questions, but Saenz was also happy, put his arm around him and squeezed his shoulder: "However, I am not happy that he hurt me, but I am happy that someone hurt me."

Li Chen said with a dull face, "...I don't want to hear it."

Saenz kissed his earlobe: "When your nails scratched me, it hurt, but I was very happy."

After Li Chen came, Saenz's injury did not heal faster, but at least he would not be miserable and alone.Otherwise, almost all the people in the mansion looked at Saenz as if they were watching "The Old Man and the Dog", and they didn't know where to start if they wanted to help.

However, anyone who has been to the ancient city abroad with Saenz knows that he is fine at all.The seemingly miserable action was neither sad nor happy for Saenz himself.It's just that when Li Chen came, he would occasionally pretend to be struggling.

Then Li Chen will come to help, and he will smile and joke after drinking him.

Well, it's Saenz's taste.

There was nothing to do in Black Swan, so Li Chen couldn't find a reason not to come, so he had to come and be a servant for a few days.I thought it would just pass by like this, but within a few days, a letter from Ruby Rupees came.

"Cervantes is missing?" Li Chen looked at Saenz in bewilderment, "What do you mean he is missing?"

"He led the team out, but suddenly he couldn't find anyone in a town, and lost the news." Saenz replied, "His hidden guards didn't follow him."

"No, I don't understand." Li Chen opened his eyes wide and said, "What about the cause and effect? ​​What about the process of disappearance? Are there any previous signs? Has the city been closed and searched?"

He asked a little confused, enough to see how surprised he was.Cervantes' individual combat effectiveness is very strong, and his team is not weak either.Even if only the hidden guards were brought out, it was impossible for them to disappear quietly.

And, what was his reason for disappearing?Why him?To say that it randomly followed such a powerful person, the person who operated it was too blind, right?

He frowned, and his mind had already begun to analyze who would benefit from it, but Saenz interrupted him: "The situation is not clear now, Ruby wrote to ask for help, but Silver Vermilion did not follow up publicly, I'm afraid something is wrong, you first Don't get lost in direction."

Li Chen turned his head and looked at him fixedly, and suddenly said: "You are not doing well now, is there someone who wants to take this opportunity..."

"Let me say, don't think about it yet." Saenz stretched out his fingers and pressed his eyebrows, "Relax, open your mind, let me check everything I can know now."

Li Chen thought for a while: "Shall I put up a timing card?"

"what?"

"Showing how many hours something happened gives a sense of urgency...that's what I like to do in literary dramas in my world."
