Chapter 462: Drawing Cakes for the Old Fox
However, Moss XIII snorted and said:
"He's not sick at all, he just doesn't want to come."
When Huidun heard this, the hand holding the wine glass felt very embarrassed.
The queen beside him pulled him, then glared at him and said:
"The children are still here. They should solve their own problems by themselves. What are you talking about here, old man?"
Then the queen looked at him with an apologetic look and said:
"It's not appropriate for us elders to interfere in the affairs between you and your brothers. Although there is some grudge between our mother and your mother, she still treats you brothers as her own children.
The Queen Mother only hopes that you brothers will fight to the end, and the one who is left will remember the brotherhood."
When the queen finished speaking, tears welled up in her eyes.
Huidun did not have much resentment towards the queen. He grew up in the palace and the queen had never made things difficult for him.
But as she said, her relationship with Princess Phipsa was very tense.
But this was a matter between their fathers, and it was also a sin committed by his father.
At this time, Moss XIII glared at the queen beside him and said:
"What nonsense are you talking about? This is a party. How can you talk about such nonsense?"
The queen looked at her husband and knew that the heir to the throne was either Huidun or her son.
The reason why she said this to Huidun today was because she understood her husband.
She just wanted Huidun to win and spare her only biological son for the sake of brotherhood.
Of course, she also knew that her son had hated Huidun since childhood because of her and Princess Phipsa, and had done many excessive things to Huidun.
But as a mother, she also has selfish motives in her heart.
And now, Moss XIII's words are to remind Huidun not to be blinded by emotions. What he needs is an iron-blooded king.
The queen could no longer control her tears at this moment.
When Moss XIII saw this, he asked the maid to help the queen down.
"The queen is feeling a little unwell today. I would like to offer a toast to you all and welcome the return of our hero Huidun."
Moss XIII was very good at livening up the atmosphere and he quickly resolved the embarrassment caused by the queen's hasty departure.
Huidun naturally wanted to show his happiness and returned the toast.
"Just listen to your mother's words. She is a woman who doesn't know anything. The people from her mother's family are very active now."
Huidun really couldn't understand his father at this moment. Why could he let his sons fight each other so nonchalantly and without any concealment?
Is this the price of power?
Huidun clinked glasses with Moss XIII, then drank it all in one gulp, put down the glass and left.
Looking at his son's back, he shook the wine glass in his hand, and then drank the wine in one gulp.
After Huidun came from the noisy banquet center to a remote and quiet place, he no longer felt the urge to vomit.
He sat down to rest for a while, then looked around the crowd and saw Chen Cheng chatting and laughing with the current Prime Minister Holmes.
Just after Huidun was called away by Moss XIII and others, the old fox Holmes came to Chen Cheng.
While others were still guessing, he, as the prime minister of the State Council in charge of national affairs, was able to confirm that the real fight for the throne had begun.
And from what he knew, Huidun was the one with the highest chance of winning.
Therefore, he sent people to investigate Brown, the indispensable contributor to the rise of Huidun.
He knew that the greatest achievement was to follow the dragon, and Chen Cheng's achievement was not only to follow the dragon, but also to support the collapsing building and turn the tide.
If it weren't for his appearance, Huidun would have lost his qualifications in the church's calculations long ago.
But it was his appearance that reversed Huidun's decline and enabled Huidun to implement its political strategy of surrounding the enemy from the outside to the inside, allowing Huidun's own accumulated strength to surpass that of the eldest prince and his men in a short period of time.
Of course, he also gave Huidun the green light many times during this process.
Because of the previous elf trafficking case, the eldest prince and his men had offended him, and that period was also the time when Huidun and his bank business developed most rapidly.
Later, as the prime minister, he gave his bank a lot of green lights in the State Council, allowing his bank to be successfully established in cities with a population of one million.
When he thought about all these things at this moment, he couldn't help but wonder if he had also been plotted against.
Maybe Huidun and the others had already thought of this, so they were able to take action instantly when he was angry. Even if I finally reacted, people had already adapted to the voucher trading method, and I could no longer control them.
Chen Cheng was a little surprised when Holmes approached him, but at the beginning he just adhered to the principle of saying hello.
But when Chen Cheng heard Holmes talking about the development of their bank, he realized that it was not only due to Princess Phipsa's contribution, but also the prime minister's contribution.
It is no wonder that a bank can be opened in the sphere of influence of the Second Prince and other mortal enemies of Huidun.
It seems that this Prime Minister is really as Moss XIII said, a vicious wolf, and he has a very strong control over the kingdom.
When Holmes saw that Chen Cheng was still calm, he felt that heroes emerge from young.
When he was Chen Cheng's age, he was not as calm as he is now.
Chen Cheng was looking at the prime minister, and then he thought of a phrase: dances with wolves.
Perhaps this evil wolf would be the best executor of the plan that I had in mind.
Because none of the officials Chen Cheng met here had ever thought of seizing power, only the prime minister was truly capable and ambitious.
Perhaps his ambition can be used to achieve the reform goal of restraining the royal power.
And since he was going to be used, Chen Cheng did not hesitate. He had to win him over to Huidun first, rather than letting him be taken away by Moss XIII before Huidun ascended the throne.
Naturally, Chen Cheng also learned the skill of making promises from Bruce.
Don't think these old foxes are as cunning as ghosts, that's just because you haven't touched their hearts.
As long as you know their pulse, these old foxes are much easier to fool than young people.
Even if they find out that you are deceiving them and promising them a big deal, their life experience will still urge them to try and want to take a bite of the pie.
"The Prime Minister is very busy, and I'm sure that before you come to the banquet today, there are still many things that have not been completed in the Government Affairs Council.
Alas, the Prime Minister is really worried about the kingdom. "
