"Wayne, why are you smiling so much today?"
"Chris, what do you think should be done to make a person suddenly fall in love with someone of the opposite sex that he didn't like before?" Wayne asked.
Chris paused for a moment while petting the dog's head.
"Ah, does Wayne like someone?" she asked pretending to be calm.
"It's not me, it's a friend of mine."
What a friend who makes a living out of nothing! Is this friend yourself?
Chris cleared her throat and said, "My affection has always been let down, so it's better to find someone else to like you."
Wayne shook his head. "We can't change it at the moment."
"That's it."
She whispered: "The best way is to enhance your own attractiveness."
"For example, impressive grades, powerful magic, superior family background...etc., if none of them work, then you can only use the almighty Asasi method. If you are lucky, you may be able to change your destiny."
"What is Asasi?"
"Just..." Chris thought for a moment and said, "For example, when it rains, hold an umbrella for her."
"What if I don't bring an umbrella?"
"Then let's get wet together."
Wayne let out a long oh, then smiled and tilted his head: "Speaking of which, do we think we have been in the rain together?"
On the day we picked up the dog, we came back together in the light rain.
Chris had a dark look on her face, "That doesn't count."
"Hey, this is so unfair! It's you who says it's okay, and it's you who says it's not." Wayne protested.
"Huhuhu~ This is true love. If the other party doesn't accept the feelings you want to convey, no matter how much you do, it will only move yourself." Chris looked like a master of love.
Well, this is a good sentiment, write it down and write it down.
Wayne silently kept these words in his mind and prepared to find a suitable time to relay it to Geli next time.
"I have decided that this dog will be called -" She took a deep breath, creating an aura that would shock people's hearts.
"--noob!"
"..." Wayne said speechlessly: "Isn't that the most common name?"
"It's just that we need to see him more often so he can make a living." Chris said, "Xiao Bai is so cute and kind."
She rubbed the little white dog's head: "Xiaobai~ We are going to school, so be good."
I don't know if it was a response, but the little white dog made a "hmm" sound in obedience.
…
Today, Prince Richard also seemed to be worried about something, and he still looked gloomy during class.
"I heard that His Royal Highness went to watch Poklan's play yesterday. Is that true?" Someone plucked up the courage to ask.
"Yes." The prince answered in the affirmative, "A very perfect performance."
"Ah...His Royal Highness the Prince actually admires Poklan..."
This incident seemed to have a certain impact on everyone, and Wayne could hear them whispering about it from time to time.
However, this had nothing to do with him, that was how he originally felt.
When Wayne came out of the bathroom, he unexpectedly saw the prince's friend Gavin Warren leaning against the wall with a depressed look on his face, as if waiting for someone.
When he saw Wayne, he felt relieved and walked over to him and asked: "Wayne, can I say a few words?"
Wayne looked around and saw that there weren't many passers-by, but for the sake of concealment he followed Gavin a little further away.
"So, what is it?"
Gavin said straightforwardly: "Richard, he has actually been worried about Poqueland recently."
"Poquelin, that playwright? It doesn't seem to have anything to do with Richard, right?"
"It really has little to do with him personally... To be precise, it is His Majesty the King who wants to receive Poquelin."
Gavin revealed the inside story: "The king already liked Poquelin's previous works very much, and this new release of "The Love of the Noble Lady" impressed his majesty even more, and he wanted to let him perform it in the palace theater. .”
"Wouldn't that be nice?" said Wayne.
"No...it's different." Gavin frowned, "You may not know that the Palace Theater has only performed traditional church plays before."
"Poclan is even more of a controversial figure. When he first came to the royal capital, church members demanded his immediate expulsion. In his new work, he directly attacks the church for using the name of God to gain personal gains. Yesterday the palace We already had a quarrel over this matter."
"Then His Royal Highness went there last night..." When Wayne said this, he suddenly realized something. "You mean that the prince specifically went to stand up for Pokeran at the request of the king?"
"Exactly." Gavin sighed.
"His Majesty the King must meet with Poklan, so we can only use other methods to build momentum for him and give him the ability to deal with the church's attacks... However, His Highness the Prince is still too young."
After speaking, he looked at Wayne expectantly.
What's the point of telling me this...fuck, you don't want Duke Elliot to go to the platform, do you?
Wayne's expression was complicated.
Thinking that His Royal Highness the Prince had wanted to invite Chris to watch together, he suddenly felt that he might have underestimated the insidiousness of these noble children.
"Why doesn't the king speak directly to Duke Elliot?" he asked.
As if he didn't expect Wayne to ask such a question, Gavin didn't know how to answer it.
After thinking for a long time, he said uncertainly: "Maybe it's because he is a king."
Bah, if you don't speak directly, you don't want to follow the truth.
The king did not want to irritate the church directly, but he wanted to support Poquelin's work. His intention was simply obvious.
Wayne didn't want to wade into this muddy water, and he wasn't sure he could convince Duke Elliot to charge into the battle.
For big figures like them, their identities and positions are tools that can be used to make a big fuss. If Elliot is really involved, Wayne doesn't think that the church camp will simply think that the Duke is just a passerby.
"His Royal Highness has always wanted to talk to you candidly, but he has been hesitant." Gavin said very sincerely, "As a friend, I think I have an obligation to help him when he encounters difficulties."
"Of course, you don't have to make any promises now. I believe that as long as you tell Duke Elliot about this matter, Wayne, he will make a decision."
After saying this, Gavin turned and left.
"church……"
Wayne stayed where he was and pondered.
In the original work, the role of the church is also very weak, and it seems that it is just to make the story closer to the Western medieval background.
From the beginning to the end, Wayne never felt what the church had done. Unexpectedly, it actually had such great power and could even influence the king's decision.
He finally felt that there was something wrong with the world, why everything seemed specious.
Based on my past experience, can it really still play the role of a golden finger?
