The meeting place between the Cadia envoys and the Imperial delegation was kept secret.
Because the Fourth Legion issued a temporary martial law order, no one could track or search for the whereabouts of these important figures during the negotiations between the two sides.
However, Aarons knew where they were - because their negotiation location was in the hotel where the Third Prince was stationed.
"Time is almost up. Yalu, there is no one else around us, right?"
"No, I feel it."
"Then you hide first, don't let the eldest prince see you... Qianyun, you stay with me."
Of course, Aarons would not show his trump card - Yalu, who has a strong mental power, is an important means for him to detect hostility, and must not be detected by the enemy first.
Although the identity and origin of the girl are still unknown, since she is willing to help, Aarons will not doubt it too much.
After all, if an existence of this level really wants to murder him, there is no need to go around in circles.
"The meeting should be over. The eldest prince should come here through the third prince's channel."
Because many people are watching the prince's movements, the eldest prince has few opportunities to move freely.
Aarons guessed that he would take the opportunity of a private meeting with his brother to quietly move here - as for what the other side would think of, it was not his concern.
After all, it was the other party who wanted to see him, not that he had something to ask him.
"Here, two people."
After waiting for a while, Yalu sensed the arrival of the visitors.
And when the girl quietly hid in the next room, the two distinguished guests finally stepped into the door of the old Marquis's Mansion.
——The eldest prince Quinlan Armand, who is 40 years old this year, has a graceful appearance and a hint of melancholy temperament, and a beautiful but cold female guard, soon came to the reception room of the Marquis's Mansion.
"Honorary Marquis Aarons Moti, welcome Your Highness."
"I have heard of the reputation of Marquis Aarons for a long time. Today, I see that he is indeed a handsome man."
Aarons was tired of such false compliments.
What reputation did he have? In his early years, he was regarded as a waste without any talent. Now that he has become a little famous with the influence of the princess, the nobles are eager to suppress him.
Although his evaluation of the eldest prince dropped by two points, the gray-haired female knight in a dress beside him made Aarons look at her a few more times.
He did not suddenly develop a cheap lust, but was just trying to judge which one was better between the other party and his own guard.
But he soon came to the conclusion that Mo Qianyun was too outstanding and no one else could compare.
"Your Highness, you didn't come here to say these polite words, did you?"
This rude response made the female guard beside the eldest prince frown slightly, but the eldest prince just smiled and waved his hand, as if he didn't care about Aarons' attitude.
"Of course not, I came to the Marquis today because I really have something important to discuss."
Because of the matter of Keliya, Aarons didn't intend to be too polite to the eldest prince.
And he did this to let the other party understand that the relationship between him and Keliya is still solid - if he doesn't understand this, then this eldest prince is a fool without any brains.
"But born in such a country, I often have no choice... I hope the Marquis can understand."
The eldest prince did understand Aarons' hint, and he also gave his response implicitly.
Whether Aarons would believe such words is another matter.
"Time is running out, just tell me what you want to say. I don't want to waste your precious time."
"Oh, the Marquis is such a straightforward person... Then I'll tell you straight away, Duke Scott plans to betray the Empire and join forces with the Cadians to overthrow the royal rule."
Aarons had predicted this news long ago, so he didn't show too much surprise.
However, he was a little confused as to why Duke Scott wanted to do such a thing.
"What did the Duke want to do by betraying the Empire?"
"I don't know, maybe for greater power, or maybe the Cadians promised him something... In short, the war is expected to break out within a month or two."
"So what the Third Prince said is true."
Aarons certainly knew it was true.
There are many old people who have participated in the war in the city hall of Moti City. These people have been monitoring Cadia's movements through different channels.
And these people have long discovered that Cadia is gathering for war preparations, so they can notify themselves two months in advance.
"I hope you are ready, Marquis.Marquis."
"Why did your Highness come all the way to remind me of this? I have no strength, nor am I as popular as my late father, so I can't stop this war at all."
"Heh... Marquis, do you think the current operation mode of this country is reasonable?"
Here it is... This is the real purpose of the heir to the throne coming to find me.
Whether the operation of a country is reasonable is not something that can be defined by the rulers or the elites. And this eldest prince obviously has great ambitions.
"Whether the country and society are reasonable, I personally cannot evaluate. But most citizens are satisfied with their current lives, and I don't think they want huge changes."
"In this country where most of the opportunities for advancement have been taken away and can only be exploited by the nobles who control all resources and power, will they really feel satisfied? "
Aarons knew that both of them existed.
Some people are content with the status quo, and as long as they can live a decent life, they don't have much pursuit. Some people think they have the ability to stand out, so they naturally don't have a good impression of a country that doesn't have much room for advancement.
And he and the eldest prince are actually representatives of these two types of people.
"Marquis, the empire has lasted for almost three hundred years, and these families that have been enfeoffed since the founding of the country have also been entrenched in this land for too long."
"Your Highness, are you planning to take back the empire from the nobles through this war?"
"This mess of chess has been played for too long, it's time to clean up the chessboard and start again."
It's certainly a good thing to have ambition, but Aarons doesn't think this man has enough strength.
If you have to borrow the power of foreign enemies to eliminate internal chronic diseases, then what's the difference between this and treason?
"Marquis, you should be a noble with a fiefdom... but now, your land has become a playground for a group of clowns. "
If I had no experience in my previous life, I might have felt the same way as the eldest prince.
But with a lot of life experience, I was no longer interested in what this man said.
"... Do you think I can help you with anything?"
"Time's up. Marquis, I hope you can get an answer that satisfies everyone the next time we meet."
Looking at this hypocritical and pretentious prince, Aarons finally resisted the urge to order Mo Qianyun to kill him right here.
"Then I'll look forward to our next meeting, Your Highness."
