Chapter 15 The Scam
"How's it going? Is there any news?" A fat man was sitting at the dining table feasting. Although the air conditioner in the room had been adjusted to a very low temperature, he was still sweating profusely.
A man in a HL uniform responded tremblingly: "Yes... I'm sorry, Your Highness, still... There is no news from Lord Tianwei, we have sent..."
“You don’t have to answer me what you have already done, and you don’t have to tell me what you plan to do, and you don’t have to swear and promise me anything.” The fat man called His Royal Highness interrupted the other party roughly: “I want to The only result is the result, and your answer... I already know it." When he said this, his expression changed suddenly, and he was furious: "Waste!"
While roaring, he threw the knife in his hand at the non-commissioned officer of hl without hesitation. However, his head aiming was poor, and he threw a lot at all. If the opponent hadn't turned to the side out of instinct, the throw would have been stupid.
A maid quickly came to the table and handed a new knife. The fat man gave her a sidelong glance, and took advantage of these few seconds to put a hand on the maid's buttocks, and the other party also Without uttering a word, he stepped back.
He picked up the knife and continued to eat nonsense as if nothing had happened. He raised his head and glared at the non-commissioned officer: "What are you doing! Get out! Let your people go find it!"
"Yes, Your Highness, my subordinates leave." When the sergeant turned around, he immediately put on a gloomy expression and walked out quickly.
When he got to the door, he passed the fat man's housekeeper. Out of basic courtesy, the two nodded to each other and said nothing. The housekeeper came to the obese man, leaned over and said, "His Royal Highness, the seventh prince, His Royal Highness Krause Wittstock, came to visit, and now rest downstairs."
The fat man finally stopped eating, raised his head and frowned: "What is he doing..."
"Your Highness, would you like to invite His Highness the Seventh Prince to come up?" the butler asked.
"Hmmmm." The fat man nodded and waved, his consciousness acquiesced.
After the housekeeper withdrew, after a while, Cha Xian pushed the door and came in. This was the first time he went out after returning to Tiandu due to an injury. He hasn't worn clothes other than HL uniforms in public for a long time. The Seventh Prince was wearing a neat and elegant gray dress. His blue hair seemed to have just been rested recently. It was still medium to long, but it looked fresh and clean. His face is like a crown of jade, his eyes are like stars, and his gestures reveal a kind of elegant and handsome demeanor like an ancient swordsman.
While sitting there eating and drinking, Victor Wittstock, who had no intention of getting up to greet the emperor's younger brother, could basically be described as dwarfed.
Actually, the tea immortal is almost twenty-five this year, but when he puts him next to the thirty-two-year-old third imperial brother in front of him, it looks like they are two uncles and nephews.
The perennial sensuality has brought many of Victor's organs into a period of decline ahead of time. The wine pool and meat forest are not a dream for a prince of the empire. Victor lives in such an environment. The four maids who are standing behind him at the moment to serve his meal are no different from the meat on the table in Victor's eyes, and he can enjoy them at any time, place, and in any way.
In such a living environment, he has a fat body, an appearance that is ten years older than he looks, and a slightly distorted personality.
And Cha Xian, undoubtedly makes all his brothers and sisters jealous, who would think, why not me with the genetic mutation? I also want to look like a high school student at the age of twenty-five, and I also want to be a genius with a super high IQ... Even if I hold the highest power and all the wealth in the world, I can't exchange the two capitals of youth and intelligence.
Obviously it was born by an old father, but he was the only one in his early days. When his siblings died of illness, the tea fairy might still be a middle-aged person. How could such a person not be hated?
"Brother Victor, long time no see, how are you?" Tea Immortal came to the dining table, pulled up the stool opposite Victor and sat down.
"Lao Huangdi bothered, I'll make do. I heard that you were seriously injured a while ago. I'm busy with work, and I don't have time to see you. I should ask you if you are healthy." He responded warmly and continued to eat.
Tea Immortal smiled. He has always been a gentle and quiet person. Even if he laughed, he would not show it to make others feel uncomfortable.
Actually, everyone understands in their hearts that it is really funny to say such words in front of Cha Xian. What are you talking about in front of him? With the efficiency and workload of others during the hl work period, you can finish your year's work in one day, and there is still a surplus...
The rule of the empire is that the emperor should allow each son to participate in the government to varying degrees. This is not only an accumulation of political capital, but also an assessment method for laying the foundation for future succession, which greatly affects the candidates for the throne.
It can't be said that there are no good regents among princes, but Victor is certainly not one of them. If it wasn't for his father's order, it would be impossible for him to take the initiative to undertake any "official duties".
Tea Immortal smiled and said, "Brother Lao Huang is worried, my injury is no longer a serious problem." He is very open-minded, because he has no feelings for Victor at all, and has no brothers or friends. Friendship, there is no disgust, just like strangers.
In fact, it's not just this brother, but other siblings as well. During the time of Chaxian's injury, none of these people visited him, except for the emperor, Shishi, Kou Linzai, who came to visit for different reasons, even There are no ministers who want to flatter the seventh prince.
Tea Immortal's mother came from a humble background. Unlike other princes and princesses, she had a huge family behind her. For Cha Xian, after the death of his mother, he was alone, without the support of his relatives, and he did not collude with the courtiers and parties. He left the political center at the age of twelve and had no foundation in heaven. The only officials who would take the initiative to curry favor with such a prince were probably lunatics, such as the drunken lord who was slightly drunk all day long. He had no position in the official circle, so he dared to visit. And those officials who have intertwined and complex relationships in the court must be extremely cautious before visiting a certain prince, if they are in the wrong team. It may be the end of the body and bones to die without a place to be buried.
Therefore, the situation of Tea Immortal also reflects two things from the side. First, his succession to the throne is not favored by 99 people; second, even in this period, his political value as a protective umbrella nothing.
Then, Victor's attitude towards him is evident. There are many kinds of brothers in this world, and some even have no blood relationship, and they can live and die together. But in the palace, and only in the palace, the kinship between brothers is a dangerous thing, nothing is better than that, and naked hatred is safer than false friendship.
"Then...the emperor left the palace today and came all the way to my place. I don't know why?" Victor asked, he was very annoyed, and he didn't have the time or IQ to advance. Guess the other party's intentions.
"Humph..." Tea Immortal let out anger from her nose and smiled without showing her teeth: "It's not for women."
"Huh?" Victor was stunned for a moment, stopped his movements, and then a smile climbed onto his face: "Hahahahaha..." He was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth: "Hahaha...I Brother Krause, ah...hahaha...you came to me in person just to beg a few girls to bring back? Hahahaha..."
Victor was so happy that he suddenly felt in his heart: This emperor's younger brother is so sad and cute. How can you say that everyone is a prince, and you are so miserable? A person ran out of the palace and came to my house to beg a woman? what! If I grow a face like yours, I don't even need to spend money to hook up with women, it's more than enough to be a little white face!
"It's not what you think..." Tea Immortal replied a little embarrassedly.
"Hey~ Don't be embarrassed, I know, you definitely don't like second-hand goods, right? Then... just the four of them." Victor pointed his fork at the four maids behind him: " The new one came a few days ago, and I haven't played yet, so if you say a word, I'll take it away immediately."
When he said this, the maids standing behind him were so happy that they were about to cry, and they all turned their attention to the tea fairy, as if begging him to quickly agree.
"Well..." Cha Xian felt that if he said no at this moment, he would have a feeling of pushing others into the fire pit, and he sighed; "Okay, then let them pack up now, my car is in Wait outside."
"Pfft hahaha!" Victor spat out the soup: "Brother Krause, I really misread you in the past. I thought you were Wenya, but now you seem to be boring! Hurry up! Hahahaha!" He glared back: "Go! What are you doing standing there stupidly! Didn't you hear? You will be the servants of Prince Krause from now on..." He looked at Cha Xian again wretchedly: "Do whatever he asks you to do..."
"Then...I thanked the emperor first." Tea Immortal really didn't know why he wanted to thank him.
"Hahaha... What's there to thank for this, anyway, in the future, these bitches..." Victor cleared his throat: "Hmm... I mean you pay the wages of these servants. They It’s not cheap, it’s more than those people outside who look like dogs in suits and ties.” He smiled and said, “Actually, it seems to me that they are all the same, hehe… Let’s just say a few of them. , Either someone in the family is seriously ill, or a relative jumped off the building at a loss in business and owed a lot of debt. These stupid people just don't understand. It's all good, in the end, it doesn't make a circle and it flows into our pockets! Hahaha, a bunch of stupid bitches, so I said, such pariahs don't understand politics at all."
As soon as several maids walked out of the door, Victor said this recklessly and loudly. Although it was an insult, it was irrefutable, because this is the reality, everything is right or wrong, it does not exist Fair or not.
Cha Xian heard the sound of the door being closed behind him. At this moment, only the two of them were here. He finally waited for the right time to start talking: "Brother Huang, I have one more thing, and it's also about women." There has always been only one thing, but since the tea fairy has been misunderstood, now he can only say this according to the other party's meaning: "It's about the woman the emperor wants to marry, Alice, according to my hl in hl I should also call her a commander."
Victor's expression changed, and he stopped eating: "What? You have news about her?!"
Cha Xian pretended to look around mysteriously, as if he wanted to reveal some important secret. In terms of his city, such a rich expression was undoubtedly a disguise, and it was deliberately made for Victor to see Yes, but obviously, it is not difficult to fool the Third Emperor.
"I have reliable information that she and Shishi were captured by that Reverse Cross organization." Cha Xian also lowered his voice intentionally.
"What?!" Victor exclaimed.
In hl, there are naturally a few high-ranking officials who are friends with Victor. The non-commissioned officer who just came to report is the person on that line, but Victor secretly launched the activation All the power of the CCP, using various means outside the official government, including bribing some neutral organizations and individuals to inquire about news, but there is no news at all. Unexpectedly, today this Seventh Emperor Brother suddenly ran over and said that he had information in this regard? Or "reliable" intelligence? !
"Brother Huang, don't be surprised, as you know, I have been a detective in HL for more than ten years. I dare not say that I have made great contributions, but I have caught some big people. If you say that I have nothing to do with criminal organizations It is definitely unrealistic, so you can completely trust my news.”
"That's right..." Victor replied; "I almost forgot, that's what you do, Brother Huang! I also went to a bunch of trash to do things, and I can't even find a trace of the matter. Or are you amazing, tell me, where is Alice?"
Tea Immortal looked very embarrassed and sighed: "According to my inference, the Inverse Cross Organization has no fixed base at all, and her location is difficult to determine."
"What should I do then?" Victor's face sank immediately: "She is a woman, such a beautiful woman! It has been more than ten days since she fell into the hands of those rebels..."
"About that, Brother Huang doesn't need to worry too much." Tea Immortal interrupted: "As far as I know, the current major resistance organizations, except for White Lightning, do not abuse prisoners. After the Unity of Commandments, even White Lightning stopped this behavior, and I think their upper echelons also want to change the political image of the organization." He paused; "It's our army... Forget it, forget it, anyway , she should be relatively safe under the control of the inverse cross."
Victor thought for a while: "Then... Does the emperor have any clues or plans to save her now?"
"I'm here today because I want to discuss this matter with the royal brother." Tea Immortal said: "However... this matter also involves me, and I am afraid that some of the things I will talk to the royal brother will be detrimental to me. , I hope Brother Huang can keep it a secret for me."
"Where is this, the emperor's younger brother is injured. In order to save Alice, he worked hard and is willing to tell me such a secret thing. If I leak it out, will I still be a person?!" Victor vowed said.
The tea fairy sneered in her heart, but she still had a very serious look on her face: "Is there a name for Tianyi?"
"Of course I know. I have watched the live video of the reverse cross for Alice no less than ten times." Victor replied.
"Tianyi is in our hl, a criminal of danger level six, this danger level six..." Tea Immortal was about to explain.
Victor interjected: "I know what this level means, and you set it up, right?"
Cha Xian replied: "Well, then the emperor should understand that the grudge between me and Tianyi is not a day or two."
"Could it be..." Victor showed a strange look at the moment: "You have a secret connection?"
Cha Xiandao: "It can't be said to be a connection. To be precise, he occasionally gives me some information one-way through a certain method to provoke me."
"Why did he do this?" Victor asked.
"For the sake of the game." Tea Immortal said: "For him, committing crimes or inspiring others to commit crimes is a game. He needs his opponent to add fun to him, and he thinks I am an opponent."
"I think this person is a perverted lunatic," Victor said.
"Let's put it this way." Tea Immortal didn't bother to explain to him, and didn't expect him to understand, so he perfunctory and continued: "Anyway, this day gave me a message two days ago, when he said it. The waiter and Changying are in his hands." Tea Immortal lied about the time when he got the information, making his behavior more reasonable.
This deception of Tea Immortal is not all lies. Only 30% of the truth can guarantee the feasibility of the whole situation. Of course, this 30% he has already said so far...
"Is he trying to make a deal? Or is he just trying to provoke you?" Victor asked.
"Of course it's a deal. Isn't this group of rebels just for glory, wealth, or dominance? As long as you give them what they want, they can talk about anything, and this day is no exception. Any provocation against me is nothing more than a means of raising one's worth." Tea Immortal said in a disdainful tone.
Victor didn't know much about Tianyi at first, and after reading some written materials, he accepted these words without any doubt.
"Then what does he want? Money? Or land in a county? If he can release Alice as soon as possible~IndoMTL.com~ These are all negotiable, I'm going to ask the emperor, there must be a way, after all Alice is still the Guardian!"
Tea Immortal knows that this third emperor brother is not an idiot. In fact, Victor is also acting and testing. Once Cha Immortal makes any obvious trap, he himself will fall into the trap, and it will never be recovered.
Victor's government is not too deep, but he is very good at disguising, and behind the wine and wealth is a very cautious and suspicious person. If the tea immortal asked him to ask the emperor and make a very excessive request, he would definitely agree first, but behind his back, he would take the tea immortal's words out of context, and ask the emperor to collude with the seventh prince and the resistance organization. See the previous one.
Maybe Victor really wanted to get Changying, but he had his own bottom line. He was always on guard against people or things that threatened his political life. It was not that other princes had never attacked him, and they were unsuccessful. So they also learned to be good, knowing that this fat man is actually not moving.
Today, however, Victor's opponent may be the fourth smartest person on the planet.
Cha Xian had already laughed in his heart, his expression remained unchanged, and he said, "Tianyi's condition is..."
