Starting Today, I’ll Work as a City Lord
Chapter 547
Everyone in the capital knows the white paper, and it is said that it is an item from the west, and people can write on it.
There were merchants in the capital who brought a lot of blank paper from the Westlands, but Darlene didn't come back, so some small profits were given to these merchants.
"What's written on it?"
"Do you want to take it to the letter express? Ask the gentleman there to take a look?"
"The letter delivery hasn't opened yet. Go to some store managers and have a look. They are also literate."
"..."
Many civilians were very curious. Some people collected a lot of paper. For the common people, even if there is writing on one side, it is still very valuable. After all, the other side is still blank.
"That damned person, do you have any money to spend in the morning? There are papers scattered everywhere."
There were also servants of the nobles who were yelling and cursing, and they had to clean up the streets outside the gate of the mansion.
"Huh? There are words on it, what is written?"
"Take it to the housekeeper to have a look, maybe there is some important news."
"Oh my god! This can't be true, can it? The eldest prince is really unfilial."
"Do you want to die? Keep your voice down, don't die and yell here."
"..."
There were also people who recognized the words written on it, their faces turned pale with fright, they all shut up and left in a hurry.
There are smart people who immediately see the inexplicable calculations from this incident, and they obediently lurk down regardless of whether it is true or not.
In the Duke's Mansion, the Grand Duke of Kerac is eating breakfast, and his son Tove is also having breakfast at the same table.
"Is there any movement in the past two days?" Kerak put down the knife in his hand. The fish was too fishy for his liking. He kind of missed the canned fish he ate in winter.
"No, Catherine doesn't eat much these days." Tove picked up a sackcloth and wiped off his greasy hands. He knew what his father was asking, and he was worried that someone would come to contact Catherine.
"I heard that Princess Lucy was brought back to the palace?" Kerak frowned.
"Yes, the eldest prince sent an invitation last night, inviting Father to attend the banquet tonight." Tofuhui reported.
"Oh? It seems that the eldest prince is also in a hurry." Kerak raised his eyebrows. The invitation came too late last night, and he had already gone to bed.
"The Minister of the Interior will also participate. The eldest prince means that he wants to marry Princess Lucy." Tove gritted his teeth, his eyes were full of resentment. He also wanted to marry Princess Lucy.
"It's a good plan." After thinking for a while, Kerak knew what the eldest prince was paying attention to, and said flatly, "Okay, it's impossible for us to occupy everything, otherwise we will be isolated."
The Grand Duke is not just their family, but there are other two. If all benefits are given to this family, the other two should join forces to deal with them.
"Understood." Tove lowered his head, even if he was not reconciled, there was nothing he could do.
"Wait and inform Catherine, let her dress up beautifully, and get in touch with the eldest prince tonight." Kerak said lightly, "By the way, go buy the latest lute."
"Yes." Tove said respectfully.
"Tat Tat Tat..."
At this time, hurried footsteps came from outside the restaurant, and the housekeeper ran in with a piece of paper and shouted, "Master, something important has happened."
"What's the matter?" Kerak took the paper and looked at it, and his face changed more and more as he looked at it.
"Father, what happened?" Tove asked curiously.
"It's interesting." Kerak narrowed his eyes, handed the paper over, and said, "Pull up the prince's banquet, just say that I'm sick, and you can go on my behalf tonight, and Catherine doesn't have to go."
"Ah?" Tove was stunned for a while, why did he change everything all at once?
"This is an opportunity," Kerak murmured, his cloudy eyes gleaming with ambition.
Catherine may not need to marry the eldest prince, but join forces with the other two, that position may give her a try...
Chapter 0664 dark tide raging.
"Bang bang bang..."
"Bang bang bang..."
"Who? Who the hell?"
A howling sound like a lone wolf came from the main hall of the palace, and there was the sound of throwing things.
This made the knights outside the door all look at each other in blank dismay, and they all shrank their necks and dared not make a sound. If they dare to mess around at this time, they are afraid that they will be pulled away and beheaded immediately.
"Is Your Highness in there?" Deacon No. 3 asked outside the main hall.
"Your Highness has orders not to let anyone in." The knight outside the door raised his hand to block the door.
"Let him in." Lucia whispered.
"Please." The knight stepped aside.
"Kagji!!"
Deacon No. 3 stepped in, and what he saw was a messy hall. Lucia sat on the ground with disheveled hair, staring at him coldly with bloodshot eyes.
This made Deacon No. 3's heart tighten, but his face was calm, and he said slowly, "Your Highness, why get angry?"
"Hehe..." Lucia sneered a few times, and said darkly, "If you can't say anything that satisfies me, you can go down to accompany my father today."
The reputation of his business has been wiped out in just half a day with a note, how can he not be angry? In the future, the reputation of patricide will accompany him until his death, even thousands of years after his death.
"Your Highness, the reputation of patricide is nothing to the royal family. There are many kings who ascended to the throne by murdering their fathers in history. Didn't your grandfather also ascend to the throne by killing his father, and he was also called a benevolent king?" the third deacon fooled road.
"..." Lucia's face changed a few times, and he narrowed his eyes and said, "Not enough."
He was worried about how to find an excuse to test No. 3 deacon, and now he happened to use rage as a reason, patricide would be exposed, he had already prepared for it, but it was exposed before he ascended the throne, which made him very dissatisfied.
"Your Highness, this incident can just test the loyalty of some people." The third deacon narrowed his pupils and looked deeply at Lucia, and he also tasted something meaningful.
"Tell me." Lucia took the one-handed sword inlaid on the table, which was hacked in just now.
"I have the latest news. The Grand Duke of Kerak will not come to the banquet tonight. He will only send his eldest son." The third deacon said calmly. He believed that this piece of information was enough.
"What did you say?" Lucia's golden eyes tightened, and she walked towards the third deacon with her sword in hand.
"This is the information I just received." Deacon No. 3's face changed a few times, and he moved back.
"Damn it, damn it, how dare he..." Lucia's face was gloomy, the veins on the back of the hand holding the sword were bulging, and his eyes were full of violence.
