Sean was delighted - Arthur really knew his brother well...

Indeed, Sheen can only be truly protected when he is at Arthur's knee:

"Arthur knows their actions very well. If I can learn their weaknesses from him, wouldn't I be able to avoid decades of detours?"

Xien knew that he was about to succeed and smiled:

"Do you want revenge, uncle?

"Not only for the family, but also for yourself?"

Arthur was stunned by what Sheen said next:

"To be honest, I want to make the Duke suffer. I want to become stronger."

Arthur glanced at Sheen. He didn't think this was a tempting idea. He raised his head and said to Sheen calmly:

"Alex was able to stay in Haines because of a confusing offspring.

"But I didn't."

The word "confusing" is well used.

Sheen's heart skipped a beat: Is this the regret of older single people?

This is indeed a problem: Arthur is a bachelor, and he has been sentenced to "wifeless imprisonment" since the day of his "death".

Everyone with sense knew that Arthur could not have children.

Arthur would never let his descendants be involved in the fight for succession to Haines when he himself might be involved in the fight at any time and his own life could not be fully guaranteed.

In the setting of "Game of Mediation", people with descendants are more likely to obtain the title. Especially when the descendants are excellent and are collateral relatives of the head of the family,

"The title can be passed down first to brothers and sisters in the collateral line, and then to descendants in the collateral line."

The child's crisis is the so-called leaving the father behind and keeping the child.

Arthur bet that even if Sheen had not been born, Atol's attack would have been as powerful as "setting fire to death" himself -

He would definitely kill Alex and take Xiren away to ensure that he would have an heir and thus consolidate his title.

As for Alex, isn’t he fighting the “War of Succession” with Atole?

Arthur is strong in every way, but his biggest disadvantage is that he has no offspring.

Arthur was disappointed with Haines' future - judging by the tempers of those two people, it would be a blessing in disguise if their children could become something great... It would be a blessing from God!

Come to think of it...

The orthodoxy was eliminated, and Haines' eldest son succeeded to the second principle, and Atole became the Duke.

"If I want to be 'alive', it won't be Atole's turn at all." Arthur felt helpless when he thought of this.

"What a bummer..."

Now that Xien was born, it was destined that he would not have a legitimate child. If he went back alone, he would be cannon fodder.

Arthur shook his head helplessly:

"The gods still favor Atole."

"But it's precisely because they're so stupid that there are so many good shows to watch."

"Hehehe..."

"How can you say that, uncle?"

Sheen covered his mouth and smiled.

"I just asked you if you wanted revenge. Didn't that mean you wanted to kill Atole yourself?"

Arthur looked confused:

"That's your real father."

"I have no place in his heart at all. If he had loved me a long time ago, I would have been taken home long ago!"

What Sheen blurted out really surprised Arthur -

“At least from the dreams I’ve had about my past life, his heart always leans towards Xi Lun.

"If I had the right to choose, I would choose to make you my father!"

The system floated in the air semi-transparently, punching and kicking directly above Sheen:

"That's my tragic story, not yours! Why are you lying about my story again?!"

Xien suddenly hit the system to signal him to stop making trouble.

The system is helpless.

Arthur's eyes widened:

"What? A dream about a past life?"

Jiaming was impressed by his quick wit in confusing readers with the fact that they were traveling through a book under the guise of dreaming.

"If I hadn't had the experience of dreaming about my past life, why would I come here to find you? Although I don't really believe in the content of the dream, it is really too real."

Sheen sneered, noticing that Arthur was very interested in him.

"You in the dream are a very talented person, but you lack the guarantee of offspring to support you. And no matter how stupid Alex is, he only wins because of his offspring with orthodox characteristics."

"Without Xi Lun, he is nothing but a useless person."

This is indeed the case in the original work:

After Xiren died, Alex went out drinking all night and soon died from an overdose of Granny Smith fruit wine.

(The only disadvantage: no offspring) Arthur half-opened his eyes:

"I can't refute your perception."

Sheen put his hands on his hips and added another fact:

"You are still alive. Alex has no reason to stay in Haines to threaten Atole. Once you return to the Duke's Mansion, how can Alex stay there with dignity?"

Arthur was silent for a while and then spoke:

"Alas, he is as difficult as a piece of chewing gum. His greatest weapon is his thick skin."

Arthur swallowed, wondering what Sheen was thinking:

"So, what do you think?"

Sheen analyzed rationally:

"Once Xilun inherits the title, the entire continent will be plunged into disaster...

"Since there will only be one legitimate bloodline in each generation of Haines, of course I want to be the 'only one'."

Sheen put his hand on his chest and squinted his eyes to show goodwill to Arthur:

"As long as Xiren is killed, I will become Haines' successor. It's actually easy to deal with Alex.

"But I am the one who took over the title from Atole. You won't get any benefits from it."

"I will definitely take back the position of heir for (former) Xien!

But I don't want to be like Xi Lun in the original work (the fake young master stole the real young master's magic and position), and after inheriting the title, I still have to be called the "son of a criminal" by others -

Since you allowed your scumbag father to choose Xiren, then I am also qualified to choose Arthur as my father!"

......

Arthur looked at Sheen's blond hair and covered his face helplessly:

"You are obviously the real one, but they insisted on doing this."

"..."

Arthur suddenly thought that the most difficult person to deal with was Atole, who inherited the title.

He spoke from his heart.

"You know what Sheen?"

Arthur thought of the "family motto" that the old duke had said.

"To become the head of the Haines family, one must not have any selfish desires. He is first of all one of the two dukes of the empire, and only then the head of the Haines family. If he wants to stay in this position for a long time, he must not have any stains..."

Xien felt helpless and shook his head:

"You know that Atole is not an honest man, why don't you dare to expose him?"

Arthur's heart skipped a beat:

This child actually guessed that his father "is not an honest man"?

How funny.

Arthur smiled bitterly and said calmly:

"It's outrageous, he's in such a high position right now."

Sheen felt sick at the thought of the evil deeds committed by the Duke in the book:

"I can't inherit the title as the son of a guilty minister.

"I have to resolve this matter before the Duke returns to his hometown, so I am also very anxious.

"Since he was able to silence the nobles who supported you in inheriting the title when the magic failed, it means he did something cruel."

Sheen raised one hand to explain.

"As long as his crimes are exposed, the 'forced adoption' in the imperial law will be triggered."

Forced adoption!

After hearing these words, Arthur's face turned pale with fear.
