Lord: Start with the Pioneer Knight
Chapter 1095
At the critical point, Weilin and Kyle stared at Claver, waiting for his next words.
"At that time, the seven of us stood at the lower seat, the third prince sat at the upper seat, and there were two high-level golden female swordsmen beside him."
"When talking about business, His Royal Highness the Third Prince suddenly said to us: 'My two children were taught and raised by my father, and the only brothers and sisters who have this honor are my second brother's youngest daughter and my fifth sister's youngest son. So it seems that it will be inevitable for me to become the next Ilia Kingdom. Now be loyal to me, and I will help you all become earls in the future.'"
"And here, the third prince seemed to wake up, stopped talking about this, and started talking about other important matters."
"So, the idea of changing your allegiance is based on the secrets told to you by your good friend." Weilin asked.
Upon hearing this, Claver answered, "Yes, Lord Weilin, since His Majesty the King is going to choose an heir from among his grandchildren, it is not in my interest to be loyal to the Third Prince."
"Although I cannot judge the truth of the information given by my friend now, judging from the changes in His Majesty the King over the past ten years, this information is very likely to be true."
"Sometimes, if the truth of the information reaches the seventh level, it is worth my risk."
Wei Lin fell silent after hearing this.
Claver has no background and is too outstanding. If he does not stand on the side and remains neutral, it is easy to end up with an accidental death.
Neutrality is reserved for the strong and the weak. The former has the strength to choose this, while the latter has no choice.
Does the struggle for heirs have anything to do with those barons in the countryside?
To put it bluntly, it has nothing to do with it. The title of a small noble has been passed down for two generations, and the heir to the throne may not have been determined yet. This is the fact.
As for the outstanding ones among them, they have to stand on the side.
If I can't get it, no one else can either. This is the most basic truth that every person in power knows.
In this case, the fence-sitter will die miserably, there is no doubt about it.
For a viscount like Cleaver, he is naturally the target of the royal prince and princess, but he made a mistake in his choice this time and didn't bet right, which led to him falling into a passive situation.
"Viscount Cleaver, if you leave the third prince, which prince are you going to side with next?"
Weilin took out a bottle of glowing wine from the space ring, and then took out three wine glasses, ready to have a good talk with this son of destiny.
Seeing this, Claver saw that Weilin was going to discuss it in detail. After thinking for a moment, he said, "If there was no information from Lord Kyle, under the circumstances at that time, I would wait and see for ten years, and consider choosing one after the princes raised by His Majesty the King himself grow up."
Weilin filled three glasses of wine, handed two of them to Kyle and Claver, then picked up the wine glass in front of him, took a sip, and said, "Viscount Claver, so now you have set your loyalty target on the illegitimate son of the third prince."
Claver nodded and responded, "Yes, Lord Weilin, I am ready to gamble again."
"His Majesty the King bypassed his own heirs and prepared to choose an heir from his grandchildren. There are only two possibilities."
Kyle heard this and continued, "The first possibility is that the princes and princesses are not useful enough and cannot reach the country. His Majesty's expectation, but this possibility is obviously not true. "
Clever nodded and agreed: "Yes, Lord Kyle, among the eight heirs of His Majesty the King, the excellence of the eldest prince is unquestionable, the second and third princes are slightly inferior, but they are also qualified to be in power. As for the other princes and princesses, they all have their own advantages. "
"Then the answer is obvious. His Majesty the King must have been inspired that there is a person among his grandchildren who can make the Kingdom of Ilia go to the next level, so he changed his mind. "
"The analysis is correct. "
Wei Lin nodded, and then changed the subject and said: "Viscount Clever, then you are not afraid of making a wrong choice again this time, and being liquidated when the next King of the Kingdom of Ilia takes office. "
For the liquidation mentioned by Wei Lin, Clever naturally knew what it meant.
In the past history, when the throne was changed, there were many viscounts and weak earls who were used as "abandoned children" during the war.
However, this kind of treatment as an abandoned child will only happen once, which is also called the War of Atonement, which is an unspoken rule between the royal family and the nobles.
If you can't make it, the next heir of the family will take the throne in advance, lie dormant for decades or even hundreds of years to lick his wounds, and quietly restore his strength in the corner. This ending is also called the end of grudges after death.
If you make it, you will get corresponding military merits, and the grudges with the current king will be wiped out, and the relationship between the monarch and the minister will return to normal.
"Sir Weilin, I know, but I want to take a gamble. If I fail, the worst thing is to die in the war. If I succeed, my road will be easy, and my children's road will be easier."
"If you want to rise at the lowest cost, this is the road we must take."
Looking at Clever's serious determination, Weilin's expression was a little complicated.
It is difficult for Weilin to deeply understand his feelings because he has not experienced it.
As a member of the Aix family, he became an earl in just a few decades, but in the eyes of the great nobles, he is still a member of the old nobles, just because his surname is Aix.
Nobles like Clever who have come all this way without any support are called rising star nobles, but they also have another nickname, called the nobles who serve as a soldier, and are also called the desperate men.
Of course, the nobles who have accumulated military merits and war exploits for generations are country nobles. Not only the old nobles regard them as nothing, but even the rising star nobles despise them.
However, everyone has their own choices, and there is no need to be harsh on others.
"I can help you get rid of the third prince and prevent you from being retaliated by him, but it is not enough to rely on the three blood flowers alone." Weilin put away the emotions on his face and said.
Clever heard this and asked, "Sir Weilin, what price do you need me to pay?"
"The price is not that high, but I need you to agree to one condition." Weilin put down the wine glass, looked at Clever, and said in a deep voice.
"Please speak."
"When you become a soul-minded rank, you need to give me the three valuable items you have obtained."
"Three valuable items?"
Clever lowered his head and repeated softly, with a hint of hesitation in his heart.
