Chapter 643 (1/2)
After seeing off the special envoy of the chamber of Commerce Alliance, Sean turned and walked to another room.
There, Cecilia and shefanio were chatting with Athena, old hatch and Cox. But basically Cecilia and Athena were talking. There was no fixed topic in the sea in the southeast and northwest. However, only when talking about local customs and regional differences, old Duke hatch would interrupt and say a few words, but they were all about some local customs of dabion kingdom in the past.
Cox was quite silent on these topics.
However, we all know that Cox is actually more keen on military war and other things. In the final analysis, he is a war maniac. Therefore, it is not surprising for everyone to keep silent on these topics.
When Sean opened the door, Athena and Cecilia had a heated discussion on clothing.
As a woman, as like as two peas, Sean has seen her wardrobe, and seven identical sets of coarse cloth are in it: white linen shirt and brown linen pants. So on this topic, even shefanio involuntarily inserted the topic, which made Cox and old Duke hatch shake their heads for a while - in fact, old Duke hatch was fine. Cox looked at these women as if he were looking at some monster.
Sean thought: Cox is still too young to see the real purgatory.
When Sean came in, everyone ended the previous chat.
Somehow, a low air pressure began to fill the room with the moment Sean came in.
When Sean took his seat, hutch Boulder, who still enjoys a high reputation among the nobility of dabion, finally whispered: ”our enemy moves much faster than we thought...”
Although she knew that the ”enemy” mentioned by the old Duke of hatch meant the enemy of the political faction, yasna still frowned slightly. Looking at her appearance, she probably wanted to correct the meaning in the old Duke of hatch's words, but her lips opened slightly, but she closed again, and finally didn't speak out. In yasna's cognition, she is now regarded as the faction of the northern aristocracy, so the enemy mentioned by the old Duke of hatch is actually her enemy, so in a sense, the old Duke of hatch is not wrong.
Looking at Athena's appearance, Sean smiled in his heart: obsessive-compulsive disorder.
However, those who also noticed the tiny action of yasna naturally included Cox, old Duke hatch and others. After all, all the people present, except Sean, Rena and shefanio, are veteran who have been immersed in the aristocratic circle for many years. There is still some keen attention.
So the next sentence, old Duke hatch naturally changed his mouth a little, which was so smooth that it was incredible: ”... It seems that these people of the noble faction in sene have reached some agreement with those people in the original northwest noble circle, so that they can spare more people to target and attack us. Most importantly, even in our influence, there are many indecisive guys who are likely to be attracted by each other. ”
”What's the matter with roha Karch?” Sean inquired.
As one of the seven Dukes of Ryan today, the other five seans know something, but this roha kalch doesn't know anything.
”This is a cruel guy.” Cox Hopson, who had been almost silent before, was the first to speak this time.
”Cruel and cruel?” Sean was stunned.
He was suddenly curious. What kind of cruel man must he be called by a war maniac?
You know, any real war maniac is a very cold-blooded person. For such people, the victims of war are just a group of death figures. Even if they charge on the front line in person, they will not be moved by the fall of their companions. Most of the time, they don't care about the number of deaths at all, as long as they can win the next war, Even if they were killed in local battles, they would not frown - in fact, more extreme war maniacs would even send a batch of cannon fodder to die in these local battles.
So if you want to be cruel, basically all war maniacs can deserve this name.
Because of this, Sean is naturally very interesting to be called cruel and cruel by a war maniac.
”Roha's words... Is it the son of the devil?” Old Duke hatch frowned slightly at Cox's words.
Obviously, the two Dukes had heard of such a character.
Cox nodded slightly.
”What's going on?” This time, even Athena was curious.
”The kalch family is one of the original seven Duke families of dabion. This family is one of the leaders of the northwest aristocratic circle.” Hatch boulder began to describe, ”in some ways, the family actually began to decline as early as the previous generation, but the decline speed was delayed by old Karch for 30 years until the last war with Ryan broke out.”
The so-called last Ryan war by hatch boulder naturally refers to the comprehensive invasion of dabion by Athena.
”Under this irresistible decline, the karchi family also had to sell some territories and other things to maintain the stability of the whole family, but even this stability has become quite fragile. It is said that there have even been several divisions and riots within it.” Hatch bolt continued, ”but at this time, the karchi family broke out even more shocking scandal news, that is, almost all the heirs of the karchi family were killed.”
”What's going on?” Sean was stunned.
”For family inheritance.” It's Cox Hopson.
Sean naturally knows something about the inheritance of noble families. After all, he has been involved in many things in this world. The longest time in history is the one in the kingdom of potoroa, and the most recent is the Xuefeng tribe and Brod. On the whole, Sean knows more or less about this dispute over inheritance.
”In fact, this should be a fuse.” Old Duke hatch said again, ”at that time, there were not only direct members in the candidate list of successors of the karchi family, so this incident can be said to be a real outbreak of family civil strife.”
”The murderer is... That roha?”
Kos Hopson nodded: ”in fact, at the beginning, others were waiting to see the division and jokes of the karchi family, but no one thought that what was waiting was the news that it took only two months to completely restore all the will of the whole karchi family to one person At this time, we found from other things that roha had killed his father as early as a week before the family inheritance struggle. In fact, everything after that was just a conspiracy bait, purely to solve the worries within the family. ”
Hearing this, Sean and Cecilia looked at each other.
Because they both thought of one person by coincidence.
Thain Hastings.
If you want to be cruel, when Domingo hastin died, the illegitimate son of the hastin family completely threw away his last trace of human nature and completely degenerated into a vengeful devil. In a way, Thain is actually a very cruel and cold-blooded animal.
”If it weren't for you, the kalch family wouldn't have fallen so fast.” Just then, Cox suddenly said.
Sean and others were stunned, and then turned their eyes to hatch boulder.
”In fact, after any family develops to a certain extent, it will have a variety of problems and produce many different results, both negative and positive. However, it will be more because the successor's qualification is not enough, which will lead to the decline of the family.” Old Duke hatch said, ”about fifty years ago, the boulder family began to go downhill until I became the owner At that time, the relatively strong faction in China was the northwest aristocratic circle led by the Karch family, and it was when I stepped on the Karch family that I finally established the strong and dominant position of the boulder family in the next 40 years. ”
”So... Roha can't join our camp?” Sean asked.
”Yes.” The old Duke of boulder nodded, ”he is called the son of the devil in the upper circles of the kingdom of dabion because his means are too cold. In this war with Ryan, he was not responsible for the overall planning and command of the northwest aristocratic circle, but his army scale and strength remained the most complete after the war, which made people very doubt what he was doing at the beginning of the war. ”
”What else can we do in addition to saving strength and avoiding war?” Koth disdained and said, ”when the total war broke out and Ryan's army completely suppressed the northwest aristocratic circle, he took his army and shrank into the territory. Later, after the defeat of dabion's army in the northwest theater, he surrendered at the first time and joined the camp of Ryan's army with almost full-scale troops. ”
