Noble Emblem

The moonlight is very good. Even if there are bright candles in the room, the moonlight can penetrate through the windows and leave a silver spot on the floor indoors.

Billy had a strong body, was wearing pajamas, and looked as big as a wooden board. Hearing Claire's question, he smiled and said, "Why should I tell you what I think of Prince Bowens? You are from the prince's side, why would I care about you?"

Claire took a deep breath: "The reason is simple. I want to join you now."

These words surprised Billy, and then he laughed. There were only three hehehe sounds, but it was enough to fully express his feelings.

Funny, indifferent.

Claire also knew that her words would look funny to the other person. But he said: "I told the truth. Bowens knew that I liked Celia, but he asked me to pass on the message. I always had the feeling that he treated me like a dog."

Upon hearing this, Bowens laughed loudly and slapped his thigh repeatedly, as if he had heard something extremely ridiculous.

Claire felt completely humiliated as she heard the loud voice echoing through the room. But he didn't have a seizure.

After laughing for a while, Earl Billy stopped. His eyes almost burst into laughter: "Little guy, when did you have the feeling that you are a human being?"

Claire was speechless.

Billy shook his head and said, "Do you know why your family declined?"

Claire asked in confusion: "Aren't you targeting our family?"

"Who would target your family for no reason? Challenge a marquis in my capacity as an earl? My courage ten years ago was not as bold as it is now."

Billy sneered: "Do you want to know why?"

"think."

Claire felt that some of her questions might be answered. He licked his lips, and then suddenly realized that his lips were dry and peeling. He took a sip of wine to moisten his throat, and then continued to ask: "Can you tell me?"

"Because your father doesn't want to be a dog, he wants to be a human."

Hearing this, Claire felt very incredible: "Is it because of this?"

"Otherwise, what else could it be? I can only say, are you worthy of being father and son?" Billy chuckled and said, "But you are far worse than your father. Not only does he not want to be a dog, he also wants to be invisible in this country. 's master."

Claire was stunned, he felt a little incredible. What Billy said was completely different from the father in his impression. The father in his impression was a somewhat cowardly person. He swallowed and asked with difficulty: "What do you mean?"

"What's the point?" Earl Billy smiled and said: "It means literally. Your father is very ambitious, but not strong enough. His plan was discovered just after it started, and then he was suppressed all the way. Finally he came to Holy City. If the king hadn't thought of your mother, you and your family would have been thrown into prison or hanged."

Although Lord Billy didn't say much, Claire had already figured out a lot of the plot. He asked blankly: "But what does this have to do with mother?"

He subconsciously thought that his mother was having an affair with the king, and his father had no idea about it.

Seeing Claire's expression, Billy couldn't help but know what he was thinking. He immediately poured a glass of wine for the other person, and then poured a glass for himself.

The alcohol concentration of this kind of fruit wine is not high, and it actually tastes like a drink. After taking a sip, Billy said: "It's different from what you imagined. In fact, your mother is the king's illegitimate daughter."

Claire was stunned.

"Does this mean I have royal blood?"

Looking at Claire with a very strange expression, Billy sighed and said: "A quarter of the royal family. In fact, several big nobles know about your matter. It can be said that if the three current royal heirs die, then You have a chance to become the next king."

"My father knows about this?"

Billy smiled knowingly: "Of course I know. Your mother was just the daughter of a wealthy businessman on the surface. Otherwise, why would your father, a marquis, marry a businessman's daughter? The status gap is so big that it is unimaginable. It is not worth it. Do you want to know more about it?”

Are you also a member of the royal family?

Claire rubbed her face with her hands, feeling in disbelief. He's not stupid, just inexperienced. He felt that this was so wonderful that it even gave him a feeling of disbelief. But think about it, there is no need for Billy to lie to himself.

"Actually, your mother doesn't even know what kind of identity she has." Billy said slowly: "Your birth was the main reason why your father had the idea of ​​becoming a human being. All he had to do was kill the other three heirs. , then as a member of the royal bloodline, you can hope to become the king, as long as you defeat the other collateral bloodlines, and if that happens, he will be the regent before you reach adulthood. Isn't this interesting? "

Although this sounds exaggerated, Claire thought about it and realized that it is indeed very practical. Once successful, his father will essentially be the master of this country.

Billy smiled and said: "That's why I said, you are just like your father. This is why I didn't kill you even though you have been seriously ill for so many years. Because I am also a dog, His Majesty's dog."

Billy picked up the cup, gestured in the direction of the royal city, and drank it all in one gulp. His expression even looked a little amused.

"Since you are His Majesty the King's dog, you should not target his bloodline, nor should you want to kill me."

"I never wanted to kill you."

"The last attack..."

Billy smiled and said: "I just asked people to kill your guards. I also gave them orders. They must not kill you, but they must leave traces that you were killed. I originally planned to kidnap you back to the royal city. , I will help you with your treatment by the way. I never thought that you don't even have the ability to break the situation. I am even a little worried that His Majesty the King may not see his grandson for the last time."

If 'shame' had a color, it would be livid. Claire rubbed her face and asked numbly: "How many people know my identity?"

"Not many, just a few people."

"Now that you know my identity, as a member of the royal family, I order you to do something. Are you willing?"

Billy played with the empty wine glass and asked playfully: "What do you think?"

Of course it's impossible... Claire just asked. But a doubt emerged again: "Why are you telling me this secret now? What good will it do to you?"

Billy nodded: "Finally a little smarter. In fact, the reason is very simple. I don't like Prince Bowens. I like weakening his strength."

Claire took a deep breath: "What if I'm willing to turn against him?"

"Are you willing to be a dog under your uncle's hands again?"

Claire was silent, but the answer was already given.

Of course not.
