Chapter 239 Big Fish Eat Small Fish (Part 1)(2/7)
"Let alone capture the South Bank, fill the national treasury, and win back His Majesty's trust."
"Expand royal power, increase prestige, and lay a solid foundation for your throne?"
Thales was silent, and the more he listened, the more he frowned.
Kasha and Qina both smiled and changed their tone:
"And now, instead of thinking about a perfect solution, you are focusing on the minutiae and trying to shirk responsibility?"
"Put all the blame for your ineffective governance on your lower-level vassals?"
"We even have to file a petition to take advantage of our stupid brother and threaten others' weaknesses?"
"If you lose the fight, go to your parents? If you can't fight with someone else, go to your parents?"
The Karabyan sisters sneered:
"It doesn't matter whether our brother dies or not..."
"It's no big deal if Karabyan suffers..."
"But this will undermine His Majesty Kessel's little trust in you."
"Let the entire kingdom know that their heir to the throne is weak and incompetent and therefore unworthy of the throne."
"He is a little playboy who shirks responsibility, bullies the weak and avoids the strong. He is useless without the Fuxing Palace and nepotism."
"He is still a stubborn little waste who can scrape the ground and turn a prosperous town into ruins."
The sweet and gentle voices of the two ladies fell away.
Damn it.
After listening to this confident analysis, Thales had to close his eyes and gently rub his forehead.
Threatening them is of no use.
The voice in Thales' heart calmly analyzed:
They know you can't protect yourself.
The premise for you to make them miserable is to make yourself miserable first.
So... what should he do?
"Yes, very perceptive, and very realistic," Thales let out a long sigh, "I'm sorry, but I really want to ask one more question: Are you really Cohen's sister?"
Kasha and Qina smiled at each other and looked at Thales tenderly.
"So, little Taitai, are you really the powerful Duke of Star Lake?"
"The unshakable heir to the throne?"
"The heroic Bright Star Bloodborn?"
"The son of the Iron Fist King?"
Kasha smiled and said:
"Really gold-plated blood?"
Qina licked her mouth curiously:
"Glittering under the sun?"
Thales couldn't help but laugh.
The two ladies also covered their mouths and laughed.
As if this was just an ordinary gossip.
Where do the flashes of swords and shadows come from, and the human heart is sinister?
"Then why Jenn?"
The two girls smiled brightly: "I'm sorry?"
"I mean, I'm very curious," Thales raised his chin with a solemn expression, "In this political storm, why do you want to be loyal to Zhan and stand on Iris's side, even at the risk of getting involved yourself, which is risky and troublesome?
"
Kasha and Qina were both startled.
But they responded very quickly and without leakage:
"You ask why?"
"Isn't it obvious?"
Their eyes lit up and they danced:
"Lord Zhan En is the Duke of South Bank and the Lord of Emerald City."
"The ruler of Kongming Palace, the head of the Iris family, and an important minister of the kingdom!"
"Our family friends."
"Loyal political blood alliance!"
"It's better to be friends."
"Don't die by the enemy!"
"Of course we have to stand together."
"Resist foreign aggression!"
"If we betray him..." Kasha trailed off and looked at Qina.
"Do I need to pay more?" Thales suddenly said.
The twins, who were originally singing harmony, were suddenly interrupted when they were interrupted.
"What to add?"
"what money?"
"Sorry," Thales waved his hands to suppress laughter, "Don't pay attention to some of Xihuang's jokes."
The two Karabiyans looked at each other and frowned.
"Not good, sister."
Qina turned her head, hid her face behind the folding fan, and spoke in a low voice.
"He learned to disrupt our rhythm."
Kasha raised her folding fan to cover her chin and nodded.
"What should I do?"
"I had to use all my skills in vocal lessons..."
"You know," Thales chuckled and raised his voice, "I can hear you..."
Kasakina suddenly raised her head, furious:
"we know!!!"
Thales didn't look shy and said softly: "But he can't."
"Who can't?"
"What's not working?"
"Jane Kevin Deere, if the condition for his cooperation with you is to marry Karabiyan..."
Thales took a deep breath and said seriously:
"Believe me, he can't."
The originally aggressive twins were stunned when they heard this:
"What can't he do?"
"What can't he do?"
Kasha and Qina's expressions changed slightly, but they reacted very quickly. One of them put their hands together in surprise, and the other covered their face in shyness:
"Hey! Oh, why are you talking about this..."
"How can I say this in front of the girl's house..."
"Don't tell others your true wishes!"
"What should I do if speaking out doesn't work..."
"Girls should be reserved, shy and beautiful..."
"Especially when it comes to marriage..."
Thales sighed:
"Believe me, he won't be a good husband."
