Norman gave him a look full of annoyance.
"Tsk, what are you anxious about?"
He seemed speechless and said, "Bulwer, have you forgotten your original identity after becoming a commander?"
Stirred by his cold words, Bulwer's anxious expression suddenly froze and fell silent.
As he said this, Norman laughed meaningfully.
"For us...not only is this not a bad thing, it is actually a wonderful opportunity."
The more he thought about it, the happier he became. "Interesting, really interesting."
"——Well, what is so interesting?"
Suddenly a third person's voice sounded in the room.
Norman and Bulwer suddenly looked toward the door. Unexpectedly, Echos was already leaning against the wall.
Now it was Norman's turn to have a cheerful smile on his face.
But he quickly reacted and relaxed his tense expression slightly.
"It turns out to be Mr. Ecos. If I had known you were going to show up, I would have brought more wine that I have collected for twenty years." Norman's tone was sincere.
But Wayne knew that all this was an illusion.
If the gap between the two of them in combat power is too big, I am afraid that as a deep insider, my end will not be much better.
"Thank you, I don't drink." He refused in a strange way.
"If you really want to welcome me, why don't you elaborate on what you found interesting just now." Wayne also walked over, pulled out a stool and sat aside.
He looked like he didn't want to leave right away.
Norman finally couldn't shake his legs anymore, and even his sitting posture was a little straighter.
He and Bulwer looked at each other cryptically, and in an instant decided not to hide anything.
After all, when Echos arrived just now, she didn't notice her presence at all. If she heard a few more messages, she would easily notice something was wrong.
"That's right." He said concisely. "I have found out that there are people behind the scenes who are plotting and framing Bulwer, and those people happen to be affiliated with the forces of the Stuart Kingdom."
"The Kingdom of Lornes has vast territory and a prosperous economy... If you have the opportunity to take a bite of fat, it would be hard not to be tempted."
"-Although the two countries are allies."
Wait, economic prosperity? Is this adjective not quite right?
Obviously the treasury has begun to demolish the east wall to make up for the west wall.
Seeing the confused look on Ecos's face, Norman seemed to guess what he was wondering about, and explained: "Ah, maybe it should be more specific... It means the land is vast and the nobles are rich."
Oh~
Wayne was stunned.
It is true that most of the nobles in Lownes are extremely fat.
"So, are you planning to go find trouble with those forces in Stuart and take revenge for the frame-up?" Wayne asked innocently and knowingly.
"Uh...this..."
Norman heard what Echos meant and became confused.
He never thought about framing or not, he just wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble.
If Echos hadn't been there, he might have been able to rely on his knowledge of Bulwer to persuade him to stay out of it, or even get involved and add insult to injury.
But the stance held by Ecos seemed to be different from her own.
"This revenge must be avenged." Bulwer clenched his fists.
He felt that this incident was a complete disaster for him.
If you want to pick up a soft persimmon and pinch it, you should be prepared to accidentally pinch a hedgehog and prick your hand.
"—But it can be later."
Actually, Norman was right.
Just because you have been an official of the Lowns Kingdom for a long time, you cannot forget your original intention. Only by maintaining His Majesty the King's trust in ourselves can we achieve more.
Wayne looked at them coldly.
It seems that differences in philosophy will indeed affect all aspects of a person's choices.
Bulwer obviously already knew that the mastermind behind this was the Stuart Kingdom... to be more precise, the mastermind was probably Simon.
However, looking at his appearance, it seemed that he did not intend to break up with Simon immediately.
"It can be said... that I was able to be successfully promoted to my current position only because of the trust of His Majesty the King." Bulwer struggled to speak in defense of himself.
"Like, the problem behind my encounter this time." He said slightly lowly.
"A person like me is nothing once I lose the king's trust."
"If Sir Aikos hadn't found a way to find me, I might not have been able to judge the situation in the outside world. One wrong step and I would fall to pieces."
He has lingering fears about his life in captivity these days.
"So, it's not enough now."
He shook his head, as if he wanted to throw away all the shadows.
"I must gain more trust from His Majesty the King. This incident is an opportunity for me."
"As long as he realizes that I am innocent in this matter, then he will definitely feel a certain amount of guilt towards me. And when Earl Chapman is destined to lose power, he will definitely be even more... You can only rely on me."
Bulwer looked at the other two people present, his eyes full of ambition.
Unabashedly.
Beside him, Wayne also stared at him for a long time.
"So, you will obey His Majesty the King's instructions and stay at home well?" he asked casually.
"Yes." Bulwer said firmly.
"But at the same time, I will also look for the right opportunity to take action."
He said, "When Stuart really takes action, I will choose a suitable time to enter the market and I will be able to reverse the situation in one fell swoop."
……really.
If things continue to develop as Bulwer wants, he will no longer be in the pitiful prisoner situation he is now in.
For him, this is undoubtedly the best way to maximize profits.
But the question is, does this meet the result you want?
——Not consistent.
What I want is a generally stable royal capital.
It’s not about being stirred up by rebels, nor about being allowed to do whatever they want by those in power.
"I see what you mean." He stood up.
"I hope that in the future, you can achieve what you really want, instead of being deceived by fame and fortune."
Leaving these words behind, Ecos walked out.
"Wait a minute." Norman called him.
After looking at Bulwer and then at Ecos, Norman couldn't help but ask: "Are you dissatisfied with our plan? If it is proposed, we can discuss it together."
He knew that there were obviously differences in Ecos' attitude, but he couldn't just let her leave like this.
Echos, who already knows too many secrets, is a completely destructive figure to her own camp.
