Good-looking, not allowed to farm

(One)

Levin's stunned expression at this moment successfully entertained Jamie.

Even if he clearly knows that the identity crisis has not been resolved.

But looking at the person who bullied him before showing such a surprise, even shocked expression...

It still caused a very subtle sense of pleasure in his heart.

At the same time, after disrupting the other party's steps so easily and successfully causing the other party to lose control of their emotions...

Jamie then calmed down, thinking: "Fine, he's nothing special. I should be able to handle it, besides..."

He secretly deduced the matter again in his heart: "My current identity is the illegitimate son Louis just admitted by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, not that poor prisoner Jamie who can be bullied by anyone in the prison. So, even if he must expose me You can't talk nonsense about your identity, you have to show the evidence first, otherwise, it will be slander!"

"What's more, the situation has changed now..."

"I took the initiative to deliver the ready-made handle to him personally. Is he really willing to just break up with me like this?"

Levin was really reluctant.

If Jamie has been desperately hiding his identity in front of him, after he has doubts, his thinking will naturally work hard in the direction of how to expose the other party;

But when Jamie voluntarily revealed the truth...

Out of human greed, he has to consider the pros and cons of "holding the handle of the other party's true identity, what good is it for me?"

So, when Jamie let go of Levine and turned to play Louis, the illegitimate son of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, a lucky guy who just won the king's favor...

As expected, Levin didn't say a word, and didn't do any unnecessary actions.

It's just his gaze, but it is always inevitable to chase the figure of the other party.

so that...

Many dandies recognized him as a fellow, and came over and said a lot to him, such as "Master Dressel's illegitimate son was born really well".

However, on the other side.

Jamie didn't pay attention to Levine's movements at all.

In his opinion, Levin's current movements are already predictable, and there is no need to spend any more energy on him.

Since the former prison treasurer did not expose his identity, then what he is looking for must be profit!

Before you can completely eliminate the other party, you only need to give him a part of the benefits to make him shut up temporarily.

In this way, what benefits to offer is the real question that needs to be considered.

So, Jamie began to gather information around him busily.

Probably only then...

Only then will he regret the comfort and slack a little bit before.

"However, I didn't intend to be a nobleman. I just wanted some money to buy a house with a yard, grow some carrots and cabbages, and live a stable life."

Jamie recalled the simple plan without any emotion.

Then, he criticized himself severely in his inner world: "Naive! Stupid! How can you easily let go of your guard in this shitty and unsafe world?! A peaceful life without protection, It is effortless to destroy it! Fortunately...it is not too late for me to wake up now."

Thinking of this, he was even a little thankful for Levin's presence.

Because it was Levine's appearance that reawakened his gradually dormant sense of crisis.

Once again, Jamie began to desperately want to hold more chips, to protect himself.

Therefore, the banquet, which was originally only intended to deal with it a little bit and be as low-key as possible, has completely become a good place for him to actively expand his social circle.

Levine was surprised by this.

With just a greeting and a smile, you can strike up a conversation with someone;

After a few words, a group of people appeared lively together, like a group of friends who have known each other for many years.

Although I know that there must be a bonus of good looks, but Jamie's social skills, especially when he thinks that the other party is a low-level farmer...

"It's too incredible!"

Levin couldn't help thinking repeatedly in his heart: "Damned! Could this cunning boy be transformed into a fox? How could he do this? How could he pretend to be more noble than a nobleman? It's unbelievable! It's unbelievable!"

For this reason, he even took a little pity on his talents: "If he can obediently listen to me in the future, it's not that he can't be kept forever."

Until the end of the banquet...

The plan in Jamie's heart is gradually taking shape, and he thinks that he has almost a [-]% chance of winning.

That night, he used the excuse of having a party with his friends, told the Dressers and his wife, and planned to go out.

Because of his background, the Dressers couldn't control him much, and after observing him for a period of time, they found that he was quite cautious, and he wasn't the kind of character who was easy to get into trouble and would humiliate the family at every turn. , So, after only asking a few words, it was convenient to agree.

So Jamie went out.

As soon as he reached the gate, a carriage drove over abruptly, and then stopped precisely in front of him.

Levine stuck his head out the car window and smiled at him.

After Jamie smiled back calmly, he jumped into the carriage without hesitation.

The two of them didn't speak in the carriage, they just closed their eyes and rested their minds, as if they were comparing who was more patient.

With the clatter of horseshoes, the coachman drove the carriage for a long distance.

In the end, the car was parked in a remote place with relatively few people.

Levin gave some money and told the coachman to go out and have some fun by himself, preferably not coming back in an hour or two.

So, the coachman happily went on paid leave.

As a result,

Only Jamie and Levin were left in the carriage.

At this time, both Levin and Jamie were still wearing the same costumes they wore at the banquet, and each of them could be considered luxurious and elegant.

Just one older and one younger;

One is vicious and sinister, and has always had a lot of desires, and the other is scheming, and takes risks from time to time.

If there are outsiders watching, this scene should be a very tense scene.

It was because the two of them seemed to be shrouded in a strange aura, and when they looked at each other, there seemed to be a thread that was pulled by the two of them and gradually tightened.

This dangerous sense of confrontation can easily arouse the tension and anxiety deep in people's hearts, making people subconsciously relax even breathing, relax, and then relax, for fear of accidentally letting the precarious thread It broke with a bang!

"Well, what should I call you? Jamie? Louis?"

Seeing himself as the leader of the conversation, Levine was the first to ask the question.

But Jamie had absolutely no desire to follow his rhythm.

He deliberately lowered his head to adjust the cuffs of his clothes, while pretending to be indifferent: "Well, do as you like."

"Oh, you really amaze me, honey."

Levin tried his best to remain calm, and said slowly with a smile: "A prisoner, a lowly farmer, has the audacity to pretend to be a nobleman..."

Jamie, however, doesn't need a sane enemy and immediately starts trying to piss him off.

So, he not only quickly interrupted Levin, but also showed a kind of straightforward impatience on his face: "Please, time is limited! This topic can actually be skipped directly. To tell you the truth, I really don't I have no interest in sitting in the carriage with you in the middle of the night and going through boring old accounts!"

Levin was really surprised and angry.

Obviously, before he came, he must have imagined what this meeting would be like countless times!

But without exception, the pictures are all about this cunning kid who was caught, pitiful, trembling, and begging himself to spare him, let him go, not like this... Such a blatant refutation of himself, with a look of displeasure patient!

What right does he have to be impatient?

How dare he be impatient!

New hatred and old hatred!

Together with the many grievances that were played before...

The anger in Levin's heart burst out all at once, and the idea of ​​wanting to vent gradually gained the upper hand in his mind.

So, he was really too lazy to put on any more demeanor, so he just wanted to see the poor, and cursed viciously: "You shameless little bastard! You little bastard! The ungrateful white-eyed wolf! I fucking I shouldn't care about you, let you get fucked by those hooligans in prison until your ass blossoms!"

Jamie was expressionless, covered his mouth quietly, and yawned.

Seeing this, Levin became furious: "Now, after playing tricks on me, you still dare to appear in front of me like this..."

Jamie sighed silently.

He thought to himself: "I don't want to appear in front of you either."

"Okay, anyway, it's time to settle the ledger."

Levin smiled coldly, gritted his teeth and said, "Now! Kneel down! Repent! You must die by my hands this time!"

Jamie Ben was still fiddling with his fingers boredly.

He had been patiently listening to Levin's violent venting and insults, but he didn't speak until he heard the words that were about to kill him: "I..."

"Kneel down first, and then talk to me."

Levine interrupted with lingering anger.

Jamie frowned: "No need? I think..."

"Kneel down!" Levin said, staring at him.

"Levin, I..."

"Kneel down! Otherwise, there is no talk."

"Alright alright……"

For the next conversation, Jamie bit his lower lip, hesitated for a moment, then knelt down temporarily, while still casually saying: "Actually, I just want to tell you that I will not die. "

Levine didn't smile with satisfaction until he saw Jamie kneeling down, and was willing to continue talking with him.

He looked down from a high place and asked, "What's the matter? Whose power did you take advantage of this time?"

Jamie raised his head and looked at him, but even if he was kneeling, he didn't feel weak. Instead, he looked calm and replied in a calm tone: "Of course it's you."

"what?"

"Because you won't let me die."

"Ha, why do you say that? Could it be that you can drill into my heart and see my thoughts?"

"That can't be done, but there is a mystery in it."

"Oh?"

"You should enlarge the layout a little bit, Levin, don't always stare at me, look at yourself too!"

"Look at myself?"

"Yes, you will be promoted soon."

"Me? Gao Sheng?"

"That's right, congratulations! You are now a viscount, but you will soon be promoted to an earl!"

"...Could it be that you can tell fortunes?"

"will not."

"Then you have inside information?"

"My identity has just recognized my ancestors."

"So, you're talking nonsense!?"

"No, Levin, this is the truth. Because I will get a title soon, and after that, I will do my best to help you become an earl."

There was silence in the carriage.

The two looked at each other quietly, neither of them spoke.

After a while, Levin sneered.

He once again looked Jamie up and down condescendingly, and suddenly asked, "How old are you?"

"Are you asking Louis, or Jamie? Well, I'm 17 anyway." Jamie replied calmly.

"Seventeen, haha, seventeen." Levin repeated the number.

Then, he sneered again and said: "A 17-year-old liar, a despicable prisoner on the run, a despicable farmer's son, a little mouse who hides his name and dare not reveal his identity, and dares to help me become an earl." ?”

"Levin, do you really think that Louis is Lord Dressel's illegitimate son?"

Jamie let him sneer and sneer, and followed his own train of thought, and continued steadily: "If Louis is just the illegitimate son of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, why would the king and queen be present in person today?"

"What do you mean?"

"Louis' background is related to the royal family."

"so what?"

"Don't you understand? Or, you are just pretending to be stupid! Think carefully, if you don't expose me, how much benefit can I bring you with this noble status? It is not just an earl ah."

"...Go on."

"I've heard people say that you have been working with your brother-in-law Judian for several years. Judian is indeed a capable man who can make money. He made the previous amnesty order. It's amazing! But, as far as I know , The money he earned has never been distributed to you. Suppose he earns a hundred, distributes thirty to His Majesty the King, and keeps 69 for himself. In the end, he will probably send you, a beggar, for one dollar. "

"Shut up, how dare you...how dare you!!"

"... How pitiful, Levin, how pitiful you are! You have been a viscount from the very beginning, and you have been with him for five or six years. In the end, he was still a viscount."

"...I tell you to shut up!"

"But I'm different, Levin! Listen to me, you have my handle, so I dare not cheat you. As long as you follow me from now on, I will definitely find a way to help you get promoted and make a fortune! Think about it, think about it, right?"

Levine stared at Jamie for a long time, trying to process his words in his head.

After a long time, he stretched out his hand towards Jamie.

A quick smile flashed across the corner of Jamie's lips, and he immediately grabbed his hand, and with a little leverage, he stood up from the ground.

Then, smiling, he glanced at the seat on the carriage, "Well, can I sit down and talk now?"

"Please, please sit down."

Levin pushed his glasses and greeted him politely.

(two)

It wasn't until he got off Levin's carriage that Jamie breathed a sigh of relief.

"So……"

He thought: "For the time being, this matter is settled, and I will be safe for the time being."

It's just that the damaged mood cannot be restored anyway.

After escaping from the gang of robbers and watching the group of people go to the gallows with their own eyes.

He thought that he was completely freed, that he could change his name and surname from now on, and live a stable life.

But who knows, Louis Beckett is not just an ordinary illegitimate son of a nobleman!

Not to mention the complicated life experience, he can still have a relationship with the royal family.

By mistake, he made himself the son of the Minister of Finance.

It's okay to be the son of the Chancellor of the Exchequer.

There are many dandies in Wangcheng who have money in their pockets but don't do serious things all day long. At worst, they will follow the example of these people and just mess around every day in the future.

Unexpectedly, another Levin popped up.

Therefore, he had to regain his energy and try to find a way to deal with it again.

Think about the hardships and ups and downs along the way.

Jamie couldn't help sighing for a while.

Then, he was full of worry and thought about what to do next: "Oh, this damn Levin has to be dealt with sooner or later! His harm is within my control, but it's like a mushroom in mushroom soup." Like flies, harmless and disgusting!"

"But it's not urgent. We have to find a way that doesn't implicate me."

"As for the matter of agreeing to him... well, I won't think about it tonight, anyway, it can be delayed for a while..."

So, for a change of mind.

I also stretched my nerves for a day and a night for Song Yisong.

Jamie decided not to go back to Dressel's house for the time being, but to open another room in the hotel where he stayed before, and take a temporary rest.

When it was daylight, he would also visit Mrs. Helena, so as to learn some bright things from that kind lady, such as courage and happiness.

Lady Helena was pleasantly surprised to see Jamie again the next day.

She was as happy as a little girl, and ran over with her skirt in hand: "God, Louis! You came just in time, I was looking for you, but there is nowhere to look for it!"

Jamie smiled brightly: "I'm really flattered by your reaction."

He hugged Mrs. Helena happily, and then asked, "I wonder what you are looking for?"

Madam Helena replied excitedly: "A few days ago, I obtained the consent of the original author, Earl Hudgins. Now, we can adapt "Marian."

"Huh? Marianne?"

Although it was just a few weeks, Jamie had the illusion that "this is completely from a previous life", so he almost didn't react.

However, soon, he smiled again, and asked tactfully: "It does sound like good news, so how do you plan to adapt it?"

"no no."

Mrs. Helena was probably in a really good mood, she shook her head cutely and said, "You made a mistake, I didn't make the adaptation, it was you, Louis."

"Me?" Jamie was surprised.

"Yes, have you forgotten?"

Mrs. Helena hurriedly reminded: "Didn't you tell me that day that in your mind, Marianne's truly happy ending should be to kill Simmons and then fly away?"

"That's what happened."

"I told Earl Hudgins about this ending, and he agreed, so you can officially make the adaptation."

Jamie fell into a daze for a moment: "I don't understand, ma'am."

"What's not clear about this, you can now adapt it to the ending you want according to your ideas, and then I will play Marianne, what do you think?" Mrs. Helena asked enthusiastically.

"I'm absolutely sure you'd be a good actor, but let me do the adaptation? You're not mistaken?" Jamie had no idea how things would turn out this way.

"Oh, you don't have time, do you? Damn, I forgot, and you probably don't want to do this kind of thing."

Mrs. Helena suddenly realized, and then showed an apologetic expression: "I'm sorry, I was a little too excited. I was only thinking about how great the adapted script would be, but I forgot that this is not what you do at all."

"It's nothing, you're too polite." Jamie hurriedly said, "Compared to the care you gave me, what is this?"

Then, he thought about it again, and said hesitantly: "Actually...if you don't mind, I can give it a try. It's just...if the final result is not satisfactory, you may have to find another Screenwriter, revised and polished."

Mrs. Helena seemed to have full confidence in him: "I think you're fine."

She said softly: "Other screenwriters may indeed have a hundred times more literary talent and fame than you, but none of them have such precious thoughts as you. Louis, only you, and only you have never condemned Marianne from the beginning to the end, and your attitude towards her is the same. Compassionate and sympathetic."

Wait, why blame the victim.

Jamie was puzzled by this.

but he figured it out soon

Obviously, in the current world that is not friendly to women, most of them probably think that Marianne's tragedy does not lie in the heartlessness of noble men, but in her infidelity.

In this way, Jamie finally understood a little bit why Mrs. Helena wanted to adapt the script by herself.

Because in this world, there is no one to speak out for poor Marianne.

Even the best ending that the original author could think of for Marianne was to become a adopted mistress.

Jamie became a little interested, thinking that writing scripts would be a good pastime and relaxation.

He temporarily put aside the calculations in his head, and thought about this matter seriously.

Mrs. Helena looked at him with a smile for a while, then suddenly remembered something and asked: "By the way, the adapted script can be signed. How about it, Louis, do you want to sign your real name?" "

"It's a show for women."

Jamie thought about it, and said casually: "Well, look, how about this, just write Jessica as your signature."

"Jessica?" Lady Helena repeated in confusion.

Then, she asked curiously: "What does this name mean? Could it be your former lover? Is she beautiful?"

Jamie carefully recalled Jessica's appearance.

Then, he replied solemnly: "Others have indeed said that she is beautiful, but I always feel that she is really strange, neither male nor female, and eccentric."

Madam Helena's expression was very complicated.

She hesitated and asked, "You, have you ever said that in front of her?"

Jamie nodded and replied, "Of course, I've always been honest with her without reservation."

Mrs. Helena unconsciously took a deep breath, and said with a sigh: "So, it's really hard for you to live until now."
