He has no personal relationship with Duke Wenche, and he doesn't know much about the character of his children. In fact, he has not been active in the royal capital's elite circles for many years.
Although he was the unrivaled city lord in Kosco City, in the eyes of those people, he was just a slightly bigger ant until he died.
All he has to do is to reduce his presence as much as possible under the glances of those big shots, so as not to attract unnecessary attention.
Therefore, except for hearing some of the rumors about Miss Chris in recent years, he had no idea what these people would do.
I hope they are really like the eldest lady's rumored image, a playboy with no knowledge and skills.
However, the words that came out of the butler's mouth were contrary to what he expected.
"Wayne Winche is a magic genius with excellent academic performance. It is said that he is also the next heir determined by the Winche family. At the same time, his interpersonal relationships in the academy are also handled very well, and he has good relationships with Prince Richard and Lawrence. The relationship between the princes is very close." The butler relayed the information he had learned to Count Alik in detail.
Alik's expression became serious.
"It's not easy to be able to have a good relationship with those two princes at the same time." The conflict between the two princes is no secret to those who are interested.
If we really want to divide the camps, maybe I can be regarded as one of Prince Richard's supporters. When he entered the Qingxi Academy headquarters, I even specially prepared a gift for him.
It's not for anything else, just to please some nobles. The circle behind Prince Richard is much larger than that of Prince Lawrence.
It's just that... although his social circle has expanded a lot, the crown prince's status is as solid as a rock, and his supporters are like crucian carp crossing the river. He may not be able to remember the affection of a nobody like him.
Alik had no hope that he could exonerate himself.
"Indeed. Judging from the available information, Wayne Winche should be the real director among them, with strong magic power and careful thinking." The housekeeper gave his own judgment, and then said: "As for that Clery Miss Si has indeed always been freewheeling and arrogant. But because she is the apple of Duke Wenche's eye and is extremely favored in the family, most people would rather talk nicely to her than offend her."
"Oh, you are a person who has everything since you were born..." Alik muttered to himself with unclear meaning,
"What good luck."
"The remaining one is Tasia Louis, who is ranked number one in Qingxi Academy this year. It is said that she has an irreconcilable relationship with Miss Chris." The housekeeper whispered,
"But the most important thing is-"
"She is a commoner, and... she knows light magic." Alik was horrified.
"Could she be the girl in the legend?" Before that, he had only heard of such a person in Wangdu, but he did not know her name or appearance.
But almost immediately, he reacted: "Magic of light...magic of light!" The city lord shouted loudly: "Are they meeting Horace now? Hurry! Send people to surround the city lord's mansion. Not even a mosquito can fly out!" Damn it!
Things have been going so smoothly these years, and I have actually lost my most basic sense of vigilance! He was very upset. ...On Wayne's side.
Horace has made all the preparations. As for whether the next plan will go smoothly, it probably depends on his luck.
He thought that since he could persevere until now and had seen the light of hope, his luck would not be too bad no matter what.
"By the way, Mr. Horace." Wayne said,
"I hope that if you get out of trouble, you can help us complete a survey." Hearing his words, Horace was startled.
Then he smiled and agreed: "Okay." It seems that these young masters and ladies from the royal capital, although they are usually pampered, have very delicate thoughts.
He probably wanted to use this method to keep himself from giving up... Wayne would never have thought that Horace would secretly come up with all kinds of tender reasons for them.
In order to prevent Count Alik from reacting too quickly, they could not stay in the reception room with Horace for too long.
No matter what Alik's final outcome will be, he is still the powerful city lord at this moment and must delay for a while.
This was a plan proposed by Horace himself. However, Wayne already had other plans. Now that... the mysterious assassin has appeared, it would be too disrespectful to the Lord of the City to leave without doing anything.
The doll he received from the city lord was still in his pocket. Thinking of this, Wayne also smiled.
"Then, let's carry out the plan," he said. They didn't waste too long. When the outside guards came in, they still saw Horace lying unconscious on the ground and several distinguished guests with unhappy expressions on the seats.
"Take him down." Wayne said, rubbing his forehead and pretending to be very disappointed. The guards did not dare to say anything. They stepped forward to lift Horace up again and bowed out respectfully.
After the guards left, Wayne stood up and said, "Let's go back and pack our luggage now, but it's best not to look too anxious, otherwise it will easily arouse suspicion."
"I got it." In fact, what Chris and the others wanted to sort out were just some small items, but Wayne specifically asked them to wait for a while.
After returning to his guest room, Wayne quickly locked the door and took out the ugly doll from his pocket.
Now that Horace has just been taken down and can't go far, he saves himself the extra time needed to find the target.
Now, he began to feel grateful that Chris had not agreed to his request to have sex with her before. Otherwise, it would not be as easy as it is now.
After all, everyone can testify that Wayne has always stayed in the room. This little time is enough for you to make a big fuss.
… Horace closed his eyes. The guards' movements were not gentle. When they were carrying him, he was tossed around like an old sack.
"Sure enough, the life of a great noble is leisurely and comfortable..." He heard the guard on the left chatting resentfully: "Only they have so much free time, they can go and play wherever they want~" The other guard couldn't bear it Zhu reminded him: "Don't say this everywhere anymore! If the Lord of the City hears it, I won't get any good results from you."
"Hmph, I'm not stupid. Of course I won't say it in front of him." As if he remembered something, the guard just now teased: "By the way, this one was originally a noble." Horace felt that he Someone pulled my hair hard.
He obeyed and turned his feeble head in another direction. (Search on Baidu on mobile phone for [My Sister is the Villainous Daughter + New Book] Click to read on mobile phone to turn pages, eye protection. Power saving. Data saving function)
