[Devil's Law] When the Tulips Bloom

Chapter 4 [The Northwest of the Fief]

Du Wei still went to the Imperial Supervisory Office. The purpose was naturally to meet his father who was imprisoned here, and by the way, to sell his future capable general, General Longbottom, a favor——Du Wei was very fond of this old subordinate of his. I have a good impression, and naturally I must draw him into my command in this life.The conversation between Du Wei and Earl Raymond lasted much shorter than in his previous life, and Du Wei's feelings for this father were always very complicated.

Earl Raymond is certainly not good to Du Wei. From a father's point of view, it can even be said to be very bad. After all, the earl even sent someone to assassinate his own son. Naturally, it is not a big deal. Loving father.But Du Wei didn't resent Earl Raymond. After decades of ups and downs in his previous life, he knew that everything Earl Raymond did was for the glory of the family.Moreover, Earl Raymond is not without feelings for him, father and son are father and son after all.

Du Wei's visit to Earl Raymond ended with a sentence "Father, mother and brother are still waiting for you", after Du Wei finished speaking, he left without looking back. Personally pay attention to his father's physical condition at all times. After all, his father died early due to depression in his previous life... Of course, the premise is that he must rescue his father first.

However, Prince Chen has no plans to dispose of this group of people at present. He is only gradually reducing the nobility, taking back the territory, and dismissing the private army of the aristocratic families who supported the eldest prince in a very methodical manner. The wealth made the originally tense imperial finances suddenly eased a lot.

Prince Chen did have the potential to become a generation of Mingjun. His various actions in handling the finishing work of the coup d'état were very wise, well-organized and extremely effective.In less than half a month, the tense atmosphere in the imperial capital was swept away and the former prosperity was restored.And at this time, Prince Chen finally started to take care of these coup leaders with his hands free.

During this half month, Du Wei went to see his father, accompany his mother, and appease his younger brother every three days. By the way, he was preparing to continue to open a store to sell the things he got from the frozen forest, and he also had to take time to pay attention to other things. What a peaceful magic union, and at the same time find someone to care about the auction of those official slaves-the personnel he wants to bring to the province account for a considerable part of it here.So, although Du Wei hadn't been assigned any tasks by Prince Chen in the past half month, it seemed that he didn't go anywhere easily.

Then, that day, the Prince Regent's small group had an internal meeting. Du Wei was dressed in a luxurious duke costume, and went to the meeting with the map of the empire thrown to him by Prince Chen last time.When the business discussion was almost over, Du Wei stood up respectfully, presented the map with both hands, and said to Prince Chen, "Your Highness, I have made up my mind."

"Oh?" Prince Chen smiled, "Okay, I think you must be too picky. Tell me, which piece of geomantic treasure did you set your sights on?"

Faced with the envious eyes of colleagues around him, Du Wei calmly unfolded the map, stretched out his hand and pointed on the map, smiling, "I've taken a fancy to this place."

Everyone was stunned, looking at Du Wei's expression as if they were looking at a fool. In the northwest, the "Desa Province" next to the Kilimaro Mountains.In a barren, ignorant, and even barbaric backward area, in terms of fiscal revenue, the annual income of such a province is not even higher than that of a wealthy medium-sized city in the southeastern region.

Prince Chen originally had a warm smile on his face, but it gradually disappeared at this moment. He took a deep look at Du Wei, and his voice suddenly became a little dry, "You... really think clearly? Is this your final decision? "

Du Wei replied, "I figured it out, I want to be here."

"Don't you regret it?" Prince Chen had already stood up, staring at Du Wei.He has always admired Du Wei very much. The talent and character of this young man are very appetizing to him. He really hopes to get such a courtier.He gave Du Wei the honorable reward he could give, but now Du Wei used this honorable reward to force him!

"I don't regret it." Du Wei shook his head, bowed his body, and said, "Please the Regent!" As everyone knows, Du Wei himself is actually very depressed, although he is really reluctant to part with the Northwest, which was well managed in his previous life, and he really wants to save it. Father can't do it, but this kind of thing that forced Chen to force Chen with the favor given by Chen... It's really awkward and embarrassing to do it in this life.

As soon as Du Wei finished speaking, the calmness and gentleness of the past on Prince Chen's face was gone. He gritted his teeth and stared at Du Wei for a long time before letting out a long breath. Without looking at the many trusted subordinates around him, he turned around and walked out of the palace gate behind him.

When Prince Chen had disappeared, people around continued to look at Du Wei with foolish expressions. Du Wei touched his nose helplessly, ignoring the gazes of everyone around him, acting naturally and generously... The prince chased after him in the direction he left.

Naturally, the people in the palace did not dare to stop Du Wei, the extremely favored Duke of Tulip, so Du Wei chased him all the way to the outside of Prince Chen's room, and then heard a burst of crackling and throwing sounds.There is also the rare roar of Prince Chen, "He still refuses to be loyal to me! He still refuses! I gave everything the Luo Lin family gave him! I also gave what the Luo Lin family didn't give him." But now! He takes the favor I gave him, but he only wants to change the life of old Raymond! He is for the family! For the family! One by one, they only value the loyalty to the family more than me in their hearts! Could it be that in this world, I can't find a person who is completely loyal to me! Du Wei, Du Wei, I thought you were an alternative that could satisfy me! But you let me down, so disappointed!"

Du Wei touched his nose again, but he really didn't know that Chen would be so angry by his actions.Seeing the attendant standing outside Prince Chen's room looking at him with embarrassment, Du Wei cleared his throat, smiled with a face as thick as a city wall, and said, "Please tell me that Du Wei is asking to see the regent."

The little attendant reluctantly went in to spread the word, and as soon as he entered the door, he was almost hit by a porcelain bottle casually thrown by Prince Chen. The little attendant had a bitter face, and saluted carefully facing Prince Chen who was so angry that he didn't care about his demeanor. Open your mouth, "His Royal Highness, Lord Tulip, please see me."

"No see!" Prince Chen calmed down, and replied angrily, and it took him half a beat to react, "Wait, who are you asking to see?"

"Duke Tulip." The little attendant quietly looked at Prince Chen's expression, and added, "Your Duke has been here for a while."

Prince Chen coughed continuously as if he had been choked by something, his cheeks as white as jade were instantly stained with a blush - angry, of course, maybe also embarrassed!He threw things here and got angry again, but the guy who made him so angry was actually listening to the corner outside!

"Go and invite Duke Tulip in." Prince Chen gritted his teeth and squeezed out the words from his throat.

The little attendant bowed his head obediently and retreated, and then Du Wei stepped in.Du Wei's feet stopped as soon as he stepped over the threshold. It is not an exaggeration to describe the room as a mess. As for the expressionless Prince Chen sitting at the head, no matter how he tried to hide it, the temperature on his face was actually too warm. It didn't go down immediately.

Du Wei tried his best not to laugh all of a sudden, he didn't want to provoke Chen to really blow up his hair and blow him out of the palace - that would be embarrassing and embarrassing.Du Wei bowed his head obediently, walked up to Prince Chen obediently, saluted and greeted Prince Chen obediently, and said obediently, "...Your Highness, do you need me to go out and order someone to tidy up the room?"

Prince Chen crushed the teacup in his hand expressionlessly.

Du Wei continued to say without seeming to notice, "Your Highness, in fact, there is nothing wrong with throwing things occasionally. I remember my mother told me that when some women are in a bad mood, they always like to throw things to vent..."

"Du, Wei!" Prince Chen finally realized the mood of the green-robed strong man who was so angry when Du Wei opened his mouth during the coup that day. The Tulip Duke he personally appointed is definitely capable of pissing people off!

Du Wei finally calmed down a bit. He was still holding the map of the empire in his hand. Looking at the messy things on the ground, he raised his head and said helplessly to Prince Chen, "Your Highness, you should understand me." Yes. What he wants to save is the Luo Lin family, not for any benefit, but just because they are his only remaining relatives.

Prince Chen's expression softened, but he didn't speak up. Instead, he stared at Du Wei for a long time before saying, "As far as I know, the Luo Lin family doesn't treat you well."

"For a crippled man of magic and martial arts, it's pretty good to do that." Du Wei had taken it very seriously in his previous life. Except for the series of things he encountered this time when he returned to the imperial capital, the Luo Lin family did not treat him badly at other times.

"Du Wei, the worst thing your father did in this life is that he didn't see you clearly." Prince Chen has calmed down at this moment. He is a very rational and restrained person, and his momentary gaffe is the ultimate. After calming down, he resumed his usual thinking ability.And he could see that Du Wei chose to come to see him at this time because he carried some kind of message.

Hearing what Prince Chen said, Du Wei shrugged, "My father told me that too."

Prince Chen also knew about Du Wei's frequent visits to the Imperial Supervision Office during this period, "How is your father?"

"not bad."

"...That's all." Prince Chen finally let go, "Since you have made a concession, Du Wei, I will give you another favor." If you exchange the fief for your father's life, he will fulfill you, but ... "Du Wei, you have always been a smart person." A smart person should know that everything has a bottom line.

Du Wei's expression was very relaxed. He looked at Prince Chen. This handsome and elegant face was what he missed most for a long time. Now that he can see it for real, Du Wei feels very good. "Your Highness, please rest assured."

Prince Chen's mood was fluctuated by Du Wei for such a short time, and it's rare to feel a little irritable at the moment, and the house was thrown into a mess by himself...Prince Chen closed his eyes, "Okay, Du Wei, you go back .The order you want will come soon."

Du Wei did not obey Prince Chen's order, but took two steps forward. Under Prince Chen's slightly surprised eyes, he held Prince Chen's right hand presumptuously, knelt down on one knee, kissed the back of his hand lightly with his lips, and then raised his head straight. Looking into Prince Chen's eyes, he said calmly, "Your Highness, the person I, Duwei Rollin Rudolph, is loyal to is you, Chen Augustine."

Not your father Augustine VI, not your son Charlie, not your daughter Karina, just you, Chen Augustine.
