However, Louis XV ignored everyone's astonishment. Instead, his eyes sparkled and he listened with interest. He was so absorbed that he didn't even notice that his clothes were stained with the soup on the table.

"So, Your Majesty..."

Lawrence said in a deep voice, speaking from the bottom of his heart:

"When I need to swear my loyalty to a certain monarch for the rest of my life, when I need to entrust the people of Corsica to a more capable monarch to govern, I think of you without any hesitation.

A kind and generous enlightened king; among the heroes of Europe, you are the only one, Louis XV."

Louis XV looked at Lawrence with a smile, his head could not stop moving up and down, and at the same time he was covering his chin and groaning, as if thinking about what to say next.

Although the king said nothing, everyone could see that King Louis was obviously very satisfied with this flattery.

The flattery of one ruler to another naturally served Louis XV particularly well.

"Hehe, but I'm afraid many people will slander you as a flatterer in the future." Duke Choiseul joked casually.

Lawrence shook his head indifferently and said:

"A momentary reputation is not important at all. I have decades to make the world change their view of me."

"Really? Then I'm looking forward to it."

Duke Choiseul nodded meaningfully and said.

Look from Corsica to the fourth Rome and remember the domain names:
