Chapter 123 Father*Son*Uncle
Paen was a little surprised to see his uncle here, but he thought that he had come here for Lu Chen's sake and did not really intend to ignore this matter. At first, his dissatisfaction with his refusal to use his princely to help Lu Chen disappeared completely.
In fact, after thinking about this little time and hearing Lu Chen's plan, Paen could understand why this uncle didn't agree to help directly, just as if he was asking his father for Lu Chen's words. The matter involved this time was too big.
He first asked his father and uncle, and then Paen told all the things Lu Chen said, and begged his father to help Lu Chen no matter what, and the opportunity to replace the first family was to follow his father's arrangements and he just acted as an intermediary.
After hearing Parn's report, the two brothers were stunned. They did not expect that the Skinner family had become the target of public criticism, nor did they expect that their junior brother would have such courage. Everything was too unexpected.
If you think about it, it is nothing more than the outside and the inside. Inside, these guys will only show their fangs to the tribe when competing for the position of patriarch. The outsiders don’t even have a chance to intervene. The rest is nothing more than starting from productivity, material suppliers and customers.
According to what Parn told them, except for the Sales family, other large merchants of the material suppliers have become dissatisfied, and there is only one person to take the lead. The biggest customer in the kingdom is the army in their hands. As long as they can reach two-thirds of their supply level in terms of productivity, they can completely smoothly let the family go to hell.
The first condition should have been met. The second condition was that after the two brothers met, they thought of the second prince Clarence, who had never met Lu Chen but had contact with him. Now there was a third condition. According to the information that Lu Chen and Aubrig got very close, the two old uncles' eyes shone brightly.
For them, this is an opportunity to completely control the arms. It not only eliminates a piece of heart disease, but also makes the kingdom stronger. However, if you give such an opportunity, the king will have a headache.
As of now, there are only five children who are qualified to inherit the throne. There is nothing to say about Saimen, a little guy. His comfortable life has made him not grow up yet and he is not threatened at all. Fei Luna is both favored and capable, but unfortunately she is a girl, and she is still the fourth child. The eldest and second child each control about ten percent of the power of the kingdom. Only this third child who is stuck in the middle wants to train him as Drake's successor, but it backfires down to him in a very embarrassing position. She has neither the strength to protect herself nor the others can ignore it...
After thinking for a long time, considering his relationship with Lu Chen, in the end, in the dilemma of not knowing whether it was the eldest or the second, the king decided to give it to Parn, whether it was a chance or a compensation.
But unexpectedly, Paine was very happy to thank him and did not accept it, and advised his father not to give this opportunity to any royal family member, because although this is an opportunity to make the kingdom stronger and the royal family gain more real power, it will also give other businesses a signal that "the royal family must move them". Whether it is successful or not, it will definitely plant new disasters. At least, the share and property of the first family cannot be classified into the royal family in the short term.
The two brothers were stunned at this moment. They never thought that this most easy-going third brother would have such careful thoughts. They immediately asked whether he had thought about it himself or what Lu Chen said.
Paine's answer surprised them again: this was what I thought of when Lu Chen saw things in the relationship between things, standing on the sidelines and parties, looking at things from different positions.
He felt relieved that his father was not mediocre; but as a king, he had to re-examine the heir who was encircled by him on the edge of the throne.
However, since he has already given this opportunity to the third brother, as a father, he simply handed over this huge benefit to Paen, and by the way he also regarded it as a test. If the threat from the Skinner family can be perfectly eliminated in the end, he should consider helping him. After all, it is only what a king should do when the kingdom is handed over to the most capable successor. Although as a father, he never wants to see the discord between his children.
Paine felt a little flattered. He had never thought of such rights at all, and he instinctively looked at his uncle. It was not until Drak nodded to him encouragingly that Paine said his girlfriend Catherine's family "Acosta" after thinking.
This is a medium-sized family with the title of Marquis. They once had several loyal officers and were well-known in the circle of superior aristocrats. However, because of their duty, the entire family did not do much. Compared with other superior aristocrats, they can also be said to be declining nobles.
Looking at the third brother below, the king was a little confused. He didn't know whether he recommended this family for his girlfriend Catherine, or to give this loyal family a chance, or simply because they were easy to control. Although he didn't really hope that it was as he thought, as the king, he still wanted this son for the final reason. No matter how sharp his claws were, how sharp his teeth were, he could show up when he could still control the overall situation, which would eventually make the next throne more stable.
I can't estimate my brother's thoughts. After seeing his silence, Drak immediately spoke for the nephew who was closest to him: "I forgot if I don't say it, little guy, this is what your father asked me to hand it over to you. Take a look. Although the Acosta family is very suitable for this role, the risks are not small. Once we fail, we will not tolerate them to the Skinner family."
As he said that, Drak took out the king's enthronement of Tracy, who was the last time in the space ring. His meaning was very simple, and he reminded the father and son that if it really doesn't work, there is still this candidate, both Parn's girlfriend and Lu Chen's good friend.
After reading the content of the enthronement, Parn immediately thanked the two of them excitedly. For him, who had two strong brothers, although he was not completely unintentional to the throne, he was relatively less interested in fighting for the throne, and this opportunity to combine smoothly with his beloved made him happier.
The king was speechless. This was considered to be the general of my dear brother. With Tracy, an inconspicuous and special existence, no one else could think about it anymore. Otherwise, if the junior brother knew everything and went to the teacher to complain, then he, the teacher, would be embarrassed. Moreover, the junior brother was too mysterious. Not to mention his own strength, the various ideas in his mind were really unpredictable. He was a civilian, but he actually had the ability to get rid of the first business. No wonder the teacher praised him so much.
In the end, he had no choice but to obey his son's choice and to take advantage of the Acosta family, at least they would not have the chance to completely escape from the control of him, the king.
Paine was happy with his father's agreement, and remembered what Lu Chen said about the special forces, and asked his uncle if he had mentioned it to his father. In his opinion, such an army was very beneficial to the kingdom.
Delake was anxious now. This topic was very sensitive. He deliberately did not say it for the sake of his nephew's goodness. He did not expect to be mentioned in such an occasion. This is very easy to understand as "if you have equipment, you want an army", which is too unfavorable to him, a prince without real power.
Fortunately, Parn said in advance that this was what Lu Chen told him, and the king was very interested in this plan. You should know that the three great human powers, the Kingdom of Barel, fought against the orcs all year round, and had several legions of famous continents; the Kaistin Empire bordered the dwarves and had the most powerful weapons and armor on the mainland; the only thing was that they, the Kingdom of Finesh could only forcefully expand their arms with money to maintain equal military strength with the two countries, and could not produce decent military power at all, and even caused the current Skinner family's heart.
However, after Parn took out some notes and materials he had compiled, Drake couldn't wait to drive him away and went to discuss detailed matters with the Acosta family.
"You guy is a little too spoiled him. After all, I am his father. Are you still worried that I will attack your son?" After his son left, the king said a little depressedly that his younger brother was not majestic at all.
"Wu, I don't know what the king should be like? Think about our father. I dare say that if it weren't for that little girl pressing on her, you would definitely not be much better. Maybe I'll be waiting for you in the underworld now. Listen, no matter who you plan to succeed to the throne, don't try to get rid of Parn for him. This little guy reminds me of the you used to be. I don't want to see my brother erase me, nor do I want Parn to go on his father's path and see how tired you are now."
He criticized the king's brother without any hesitation. Delake knew very well that he and the youngest Wang Mei were the human cut-offs in his brother's heart. When he could no longer tolerate his younger brother's way of speaking, it was time for him to remind him by leaving.
"Okay, it's so long-winded. So what if I'm tired? Can I like it?" The king was a little childish and started to show off his slut, then sighed and said, "I'm really a little regretful, but fortunately you are with you. Forget it, don't say this, let's explain these things to me. If the third brother can help me turn the kingdom into an empire in his lifetime, then there's nothing to think about."
Delake could naturally understand what his brother meant. In the first instance, inheriting the throne was the only choice, whether all their brothers and sisters were either killed or exiled. Then they stopped talking nonsense, but when they were about to explain the information, one thing came to mind: "By the way, the younger brother has a magical weapon in his hand, do you think he can do it?"
"Fortunately, I've almost forgotten it. It seems that I'll see him once soon. With his talent, even if he didn't know, he should know it now. Even his courage may come from this. It just so happens that he should be short of money now. You can find time to take him to the treasury in the past two days. It's good to have a look at the magical artifact."
Then the brothers carefully studied the materials and plans.
———————————————————————————
On Lu Chen's side, after Paen and the girls left, he broke the contract with the remaining fourteen space rings. Unfortunately, the most valuable one was the nine fifth-level magic cores.
After looking at the sky outside, he felt that Parn couldn't come back today, so he took out the black gem and started practicing. Since he decided to fight with the First Merchant Family, the power to kill the sixth-level monster was obviously not enough.
But just as Lu Chen was about to start meditation, Verona came in with food, her face full of worry. But she was the only one, maybe because after the relationship was made public, the other girls no longer had the nerve to bother them.
Lu Chen, who was worried about not being able to contact Alice, first comforted the caring lover and promised that he was fine, solemnly told her: I want to practice. If the situation in Papua City happened again in the last time, I would immediately knock him out.
Just as she put down her snacks, Verona was frightened by this sentence. It was not until Lu Chen repeatedly vowed not to do stupid things and he helped to reveal part of her cultivation method to her that she barely soothes her anxiety and enters a state of meditation. Verona could only keep her lover suspiciously and feel the changes in the surrounding air in a nervous mood.
