Chapter 1096 (2/2)
”If you kill your highness fergies, I can understand that there is no heir to the throne; I can also understand that killing you and Elizabeth is to make miss Athena lose her right and left arms, so... ”Speaking of this, Sean's eyes seem vague and uncertain,” these assassinations... Are not from other successors to the throne, but the aristocrats with ulterior motives trying to create chaos... ”
”Miss Athena and Elizabeth think so.” Vivian nodded. Of course, there was not much expression on her face. ”Miss Elizabeth thought it should be the secret actions of those political enemies in those years. But... ”
”There are too many political enemies, so I can't tell who is most likely to be.” Sean answered with a bitter smile, and his face looked helpless. ”Moreover, most of these political enemies were established because miss Athena supported me. Now these political enemies are basically gathered under the command of the third prince, his highness Alan. Therefore, it is naturally impossible for Miss Athena to choose to join his highness Alan's camp, coupled with the irreconcilable contradiction with his highness Adams, So you can only choose... Your highness fercis. ”
”That's about it.” Vivian nodded.
”But miss Athena is now the Archduke of the Principality of Garrod. She can choose not.” Sean wondered, ”why do you have to choose to stand in line?”
”The same reason as before, because his highness Adams was humiliated by me.” At this time, Athena finally said, ”others may not know him and will be deceived by his superficial illusion. In fact, his highness Adams is narrow-minded and hates very much. If he ascends the throne, he will certainly take revenge on the people who humiliated him that year, and I will bear the brunt of it And if he calls me to the king's capital after he ascends the throne, do you think I should come? ”
When asked by yasna, Sean was stunned: ”you are already the Grand Duke of a country and have reason to refuse.”
”Then I will be called a rebel.” Athena could see clearly and said softly, ”my Garrod principality is no better than your empty principality. Geographically, it is in a closed state. If I am accused of being a rebel, once Ryan sends troops to attack, I can only defend Garrod fortress. If Garrod fortress falls, I have no danger.”
Sean recalled that when he fought against the kingdom of dabion, the final battle was also fought on Garrod fortress. When he and yasna jointly captured Garrod fortress, the whole kingdom of dabion had no danger to defend, and finally had to retreat to the king capital of the kingdom of dabion. However, the grand capital was finally conquered due to the outbreak of civil strife after being besieged for many days because there were no secret escape routes and secret granaries.
”But didn't you say that on the front battlefield...”
”Have you ever thought about how I would respond if his highness Adams let my father be the commander of the army?” Yasina's understatement made Sean speechless.
Others may not know, but Sean already knows that Athena and her father rold are just a disguised discord in order to comfort the emperor's heart sitting on the king's chair. But it is precisely because outsiders do not know this, so Adams has more reason to let Roland, the ”Ryan shield”, serve as the commander of the first army. Moreover, if Roland refuses to serve, Adams, who has already ascended the throne, has reason to clean up the Evans family.
So it seems that Athena is indeed in a situation where she has no choice.
She could only help Princess ferheath ascend the throne and become Ryan's first queen. Only in this way can she keep herself, her father and the whole Evans family. Otherwise, her ultimate belonging is either to submit to Adams and allow Adams to bully and humiliate, or to bear the crime of rebel or patricide.
”If... I mean if...” Sean said in a deep voice, ”if his highness Adams is gone, then...”
”What if his highness Alain ascended the throne?” Athena asked back.
”It doesn't matter.” Sean whispered, but there was a tone of indifference in his voice. ”Rather, it's a good thing.”
Athena raised her eyebrows. She was so familiar with Sean that she only heard Sean's tone at this time, and she had guessed what Sean wanted to do: ”do you want to get rid of Ryan's vassal Have you ever thought that if your highness Alain ascends the throne and you leave the vassal, he sends me as the commander of the army to attack your empty principality, then how should I choose? ”
”Then you'll just come.” Sean smiled and said carelessly, ”if you are the commander of the army, we can have a good play Anyway, you don't have to worry about that. ”
”No, I disagree.” Athena shook her head and said firmly, ”in that case, you might as well help me and let his highness fercis ascend the throne, so that we won't have any contradictions and conflicts at all. Even if... Even if you want to get rid of Ryan's vassal status, it is not impossible to become a country yourself. His highness ferheath will certainly not embarrass you. ”
Yasna knew that Sean had a legendary strong man under his command, so it was impossible to stop Sean from leaving the status of a vassal principality. In fact, in the history of the miracle continent, all those who have the effectiveness of legendary strong people are the king of a country, not just a grand duke. So Sean's departure from the status of a vassal principality is not a treacherous or incomprehensible act. It can only be said to be the only way for a strong man.
Moreover, in yasna's view, if his highness ferheath ascends the throne, after the separation of the void principality, he can continue to establish friendly relations with the kingdom of Ryan, and this relationship will not be destroyed in the hands of future generations. Of course, another condition for Asina to help Princess ferheath compete for the throne also lies in this. After all, Asina now has a legendary strong man under her command.
While Sean and Athena were still communicating in the Royal Rose Manor, Alexis left the manor full of rose fragrance.
Royal Rose Manor is built in the suburb of King Ryan's capital. Although it is a suburb, it actually takes more than two hours to travel one way by carriage. Moreover, for the sake of beauty, the Royal Rose Manor was built on the hillside of a low mountain. Except for the necessary land area of the manor, the surrounding trees were not cut down, and the original ecological appearance was still maintained. Only a large number of walls were built at the foot of the mountain to surround the whole mountain.
This is the place where the nobles of the royal capital hunt in spring and autumn. It is called ”hunting mountain” by the civilians of the royal capital.
Alexis, at this time, was in the dense forest behind the hunting mountain, about an hour away from the Royal Rose Manor. However, for the legendary strong, it may only be more than ten minutes.
