When the third prince saw Bill returning in a hurry, he immediately guessed that the people in Dragon City had discovered that he was in Seth City.
What Bill said confirmed his thoughts, "It seems that I was a little impatient. Sure enough, the rumors about Dragon City were true. They guessed that I was in Seth City so quickly." The third prince thought, in fact, this is easy to explain.
All contact between Seth City and the outside world was cut off, and the third prince did not know that there were a large number of rangers hunting and killing outside the city. When Zhou Yunfei saw that he had just taken control of Seth City, the third prince sent people to find him. Naturally, it was not difficult to think of the third prince.
What kind of news did he get to act like this? We can rule out the actions after the news. Not only was the hunting outside the city unknown to the outside world, but also people were sent from the Third Prince's station to see. Unless he could predict the unknown, the time was just right.
It was the day Zhou Yunfei first arrived in Sais City. Naturally, the third prince could not have predicted anything, so the only answer was that he was in Sais City. He would only send someone immediately after witnessing the incident in person. On this point, he was indeed a bit anxious.
It's a pity that he can't be impatient. As he is looking for supporters, he can't miss any opportunity.
After the third prince tidied up his clothes, he walked out and saw a heavy cavalry waiting at the door. The leader was Ma Chao, who led 20 Yanyun cavalry to protect the third prince. Since the third prince could go in person
Come, then Zhou Yunfei must be given enough face.
"Your Highness, please!" Ma Chao dismounted and said, clasping his fists. The third prince nodded and looked at the knights around him. He couldn't help but sigh that they are really elite! Under him are specially selected war horses that are much higher than ordinary war horses.
Wearing iron scales, the knights wore heavy armor and tall feathered hats. The tops of their nearly three-meter long spears reflected a chilling cold light. Judging from the riding posture of the knights, they looked like they had been growing up on horses since they were young.
The ones on the back are the same. They have a cold expression and are well-trained to live up to their reputation as elites. They are not inferior to the Royal Knights of the Empire. I just don’t know how many such troops there are. Plus the sturdy cavalry from before, it is obviously not
There will be very few. The third prince thought while riding on the horse. For him, he not only had to consider the attitude of Longcheng, but also compared with the forces behind several other princes. "Oh, I still don't have much capital.
, the only support for the Claire family now depends on the attitude of that mysterious lord." The third prince thought silently.
In fact, the entire continent is now speculating on where this mysterious force comes from. They are different from others in that they all have black hair and black eyes. Compared with the people in the Ross continent, there are some differences. Some people even suspect that they are barbarians or aliens.
, but the answer given by Longcheng was the human race that lived in the north before the Holy War, which makes sense. After all, the Holy War has only passed for more than three hundred years, and there are many tribes that have joined the entire human race in recent years. They were all homeless before the Holy War.
A tribe in the corner of the mainland. So this just gave Zhou Yunfei and the others a legitimate excuse.
The third prince and his entourage quickly arrived at the city lord's palace. Zhou Yunfei personally went to the door to greet him. When he saw the young Zhou Yunfei, his face also showed a surprised expression. This lord who had been speculated by the outside world was actually so young. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes,
I'm afraid he will think the person who said this is joking.
However, he quickly put away his surprised expression, looked at the monster's extraordinary face, and sighed deeply, "I finally saw a more monster face." In fact, in these years, the outside world has been rumoring that the third prince relies on his face to succeed.
In exchange for the support of the forces, of course where these rumors came from, you didn't even need to think about it to know that it was done by several other princes. Of course, these rumors put the third prince in a very embarrassing situation. After all, being rumored to like Long Yang's hobby hurts his self-esteem.
, and the vague information from many nobles who also like Long Yang is even more infuriating. Seeing the even more evil Zhou Yunfei at this moment, the third prince suddenly felt relieved. In any case, it seems that Long Yang's hobby will be rumored in the future.
It's inevitable, Linda! What do you want me to do? Should I just find a random woman to take the lead? Forget it, just let the rumors be spread. The third prince smiled helplessly.
Putting away these thoughts, the third prince said: "Are you the lord of Dragon City? I am the third prince of the Bywister Empire. Today I can see the legendary lord. Juno has to sigh that you are so young and promising! My dear.
It's admirable to have such strength at such a young age!" The third prince complimented him, but Zhou Yunfei was distracted. This third prince was indeed as handsome as the rumors, and he kept a low profile as soon as he arrived. It seems that he really has a lot of talent.
Divide it into two pieces.
"No, no, your highness, as a prince, can condescend to come here. This magnanimity is really admirable! Come, set up a banquet, and I will take care of your highness! Please, your highness!" Zhou Yunfei respectfully invited.
The third prince was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Please!" and then walked into the city lord's palace with Zhou Yunfei.
"Come, let me offer a toast to Your Highness. Your Highness has condescended to come. Zhou failed to greet His Highness in advance and neglected His Highness. I hope Your Highness will respect you. I will drink three glasses to compensate for this!" After saying this, Zhou Yunfei drank three glasses in a row!
, but the third prince was moved. He traveled here and there over the years and witnessed the warmth and warmth of people. Not to mention whether Zhou Yunfei was sincere or not, the face alone was enough. Isn’t it just for a face that people live their lives? So the third prince was excited.
He stood up and said, "Where is it! Master Zhou didn't blame me for coming here without telling you. It's already good. How can Juno ask you to pay for the wine? Come on, I will do it with you!"
After the two drank three glasses of wine in a row, the third prince calmed down a little and said slowly: "Master Zhou, Juno's coming this time is a helpless move. I think Master Zhou has also heard about the situation of the empire."
"What are you talking about, Your Highness? Does anyone dare to embarrass Your Highness? Your Highness, rest assured, no matter who it is, Zhou will definitely seek justice for His Highness!" Zhou Yunfei laughed.
When the third prince saw Zhou Yunfei fighting, he knew that he was difficult to deal with, but for himself and Linda, he decided to take a gamble!
"Master Zhou, Juno came here to ask Master Zhou to help me ascend the throne. To be honest, Juno didn't want to be the emperor, but there was a reason why he had to do it! And my other brothers have always been close to each other.
Come on, now that the father is bedridden, the eldest prince is in charge of politics, the second prince controls the empire's finances, and the fourth emperor's younger brother controls Camerin City in the northeast, Juno doesn't even have a place to live! This time Juno comes,
At first, I just wanted to try my luck, but I accidentally witnessed your strength. So, I came to ask you to help me! Juno can't give any guarantee! But in the future, when I ascend the throne, you, my lord, will be the second best.
Reinhard St. Clair!" The third prince recalled his various experiences, thought of Linda who was missing, and continued: "Your lord must be very strange, why do I, a down-and-out prince, still think about the throne instead of the throne?
Live your whole life in anonymity."
When the third prince took out the yellowed letter he had hidden in his body and slowly told all the experiences he had experienced since his birth, the third prince was very calm at this moment. It was so calm that it felt like he was telling the story of another person. Zhou Yunfei was quiet.
Listening quietly, "So this third prince is so tragic! Such a bloody thing could happen, and I was actually moved by such a bloody thing!" Zhou Yunfei thought with sadness.
After the third prince told the whole experience, he just looked at the letter in his hand quietly. He didn't care about the life and death of the empire. He only ascended the throne for the people he loved. Being in the royal family, he had seen a lot of intrigues. No place is more cruel than the royal family.
, this kind of bloodless power struggle made him frustrated. In fact, Zhou Yunfei felt the same way. He had seen many such struggles in his previous life, ranging from small office struggles in a company, to so-called powerful families, and finally to the struggles of big powers in the world.
Every person who reaches the top climbs to the top by stepping on the bones of countless losers!
Thinking of this, Zhou Yunfei couldn't help but remember the task given by the system. He didn't know how many bones he would have to step on to reach the top.
The atmosphere was a bit dull for a moment. The third prince put away the letter and carefully put it into his underwear. He turned to look at Zhou Yunfei who was in a daze, waiting for his decision.
Zhou Yunfei regained his composure, slowly looked at the third prince, and said: "His Highness's story makes people feel sad, but as the lord of Dragon City, I naturally have to consider the people under the city, and I can't help His Highness. I'm sorry."
The third prince just nodded slightly after hearing this. It was not surprising. It would be strange if he could impress the lord with just a few words. However, he was still very disappointed. Although he had had hope before, it was natural for him to be rejected.
, but I have become accustomed to this kind of rejection. At least this lord can give me, this down-and-out prince, a minimum of respect, which is not bad. After thinking about it, the third prince stood up and said: "Juno is very happy to have a good time with the lord.
, Juno is overjoyed to gain the friendship of the lord, so Juno will take his leave, hoping to drink with you again in the future." After saying that, he turned around and prepared to leave.
"Your Highness, please be patient, Zhou has something else to say." Zhou Yunfei stood up and said. After hearing this, the third prince turned and looked at Zhou Yunfei in confusion.
"Your Highness, Zhou really has to consider the people, so he cannot directly help His Highness, but His Highness can find a strong supporter. I think the Clare family will be very willing to help His Highness ascend to the throne."
"My lord's kindness, Juno understands, but the Clare family is not able to help me at the moment. Come to think of it..." The third prince suddenly paused in the middle of speaking, and then looked at Zhou Yunfei with a surprised look on his face. Zhou Yunfei said with a faint smile:
"It is true that a split Clare family cannot help His Highness, but what if there is a complete Clare family?" Zhou Yunfei looked at the third prince with his mouth wide open in a playful manner.
The third prince was not stupid. He immediately thought that Zhou Yunfei had just occupied the city of Seth, which was controlled by the Claire family and was a city that the Presbyterian Church had just snatched. So that meant! The third prince looked at Zhou Yunfei in surprise.
, was obviously frightened by Zhou Yunfei's disguised support. It was true that he did not support it in disguise, but the support received by a complete Claire family would be much greater than that of Longcheng (at this time, the third prince still believed that Longcheng was not as powerful as the entire Claire family) and
After all, he still has the blood of the Claire family, and the cooperation between the two parties will far exceed that of other forces!
"Thank you. Juno would like to thank you here. Juno will keep your Lord's kindness in mind and will be rewarded generously in the future!" The third prince bowed deeply and then slowly walked out of the city lord's palace.
Zhou Yunfei looked at his leaving back, but thought in his heart: "I hope we won't meet each other in war in the future. Although I admire you very much, everyone who stands in front of me will become a stepping stone. No one can block my way forward."
