Barbre asked himself if he was a smart man. Just like the true purpose and thoughts of the prince in front of him, he couldn't understand it at all.
He only knew that the prince seemed to have some opinions and dissatisfaction with Mr. MacLean, but at the same time he showed some affection towards him.
However, why the other party did this confused him very much. Especially the complaint about Mr. Maclean - yes, Mr. Maclean does seem domineering sometimes, but he is powerful and not a subject of the British royal family. In Barbray's view, that can be said to be a kind of arrogance. A symbol of confidence.
He will not comment on what Mr. MacLean is doing at the moment, but in the final analysis, isn't that a good thing that is beneficial to the royal family? Barbre really couldn't figure out what His Highness the Prince was thinking.
However, although Barbray is not smart enough, he is by no means a fool. He didn't know what the prince was thinking, but he could somewhat understand the feelings of the old Bishop Davidson who had just turned around.
After all, although Barbre was not present at the time, he remembered the old bishop very clearly as he was driven out in despair.
"Your Highness," Old Davidson closed the book in his hand and looked at the prince behind the desk and said, "To be honest, Maclean's refusal to allow me to participate in the experimental plan actually doesn't matter - as long as His Highness and Her Majesty the Queen can see it in person Witnessing the process and results of the experiment is enough."
Although the expression on the old man's face did not change much when he spoke, even Barbre could tell that his words were obviously very forced.
But what Barbre didn't expect was that His Highness the Prince, who could also sense the anger in Old Davidson's heart, actually opened the other man's scars on the spot.
"Mr. Davidson," the prince smiled and waved his hand and said, "We have known each other for so long, so we are considered acquaintances, right? So I think there is no need for you to talk about your resentment and unwillingness here. , everyone can experience it.”
Having said this, he even turned his head slightly and smiled at Barbre.
"Am I right?"
To be honest, just sitting here and listening to the prince expose the old bishop Davidson already made Barbre feel very embarrassed. But who would have thought that the other person would go out of his way to talk to him because he couldn't talk enough about himself
How should he answer this? It's not okay to say "yes", it's not okay to say "no", and even staying silent will make the atmosphere more subtle.
After all, Barbre doesn't want to offend anyone at all.
Fortunately, the prince did not embarrass him for too long. Soon he heard the other party suddenly change the subject:
"Oh, Mr. Davidson... let me tell you first, I have no intention of mocking you! In fact, I do feel unfair for you - you see! When my mother needed you, she treated you with courtesy. but now she seems to think that she has found a better partner than you, so she immediately throws you aside. Then, everything you have done for the royal family over the years has become meaningless. ?"
Having said this, the prince shook his head with great regret.
"So, when it comes to McClain... his attitude towards you is certainly not good, but maybe it's just a competitive attitude out of wanting to squeeze you out. And my mother's approach is really annoying. Chilling...what do you think?"
"Your Highness—"
Seeing that the prince actually turned his head and started talking about the queen's faults, even old Davidson was surprised. And at the same time, the prince seemed to have realized something, and hurriedly added:
"You should all know that I have always been the first in line to the throne, and my mother is also very old. To put it bluntly, I have no reason to go against my mother! So believe me, Mr. Davidson, this time I simply can’t stand it.”
"Well, yes, of course I understand." After hearing this, Old Davidson couldn't help but nodded and said, "Your Highness, thank you very much for your concern. But... you know, our magic world always respects strength. And that Maka McClain, his strength is indeed much stronger than mine. In addition, he always holds the dominant position in front of the Queen. As long as he wants to, I can't resist."
"This is indeed a problem!" The prince nodded slightly and said, "The power of magic is indeed mysterious and terrifying. What that 'Helpo' did is enough to illustrate this point - but then McClain can actually fight him back and forth!"
"That's right," Old Davidson immediately continued, "So judging from the current situation, Your Highness, it's better to give up the plan you mentioned before!"
Until this moment, Barbre, who was between the two of them, found that he seemed to be increasingly unable to understand what the two sides were talking about. Therefore, he had no choice but to sit there and listen to the two men continuing to talk with a confused look on his face.
But who knew that just when they were talking about some "plan", they heard the prince ponder for a moment, and then he said directly to Barbre:
"Sorry, let's just end today's conversation here! Oh, of course, because I just mentioned some 'inappropriate' topics, so... I'm sorry, I think there are some contents that you don't want to keep in mind, so Can Mr. Davidson erase part of your memory for you?"
Of course Barbre knew what the prince meant by "inappropriate topics" - wasn't it the part where he said bad things about the Queen
And, to be honest, it is best for others not to know about such internal disputes among royal family members. After all, the more you know about something, the easier it is to get involved.
However, using magic to erase memories... what if too many memories are erased accidentally? Even... what if Davidson had ulterior motives and tampered with some memories for him
Just thinking about this kind of thing gives me goosebumps all over my body.
And in this case, if you don't want to let the other party erase your memory, but also want to be able to walk out of this study on your own feet, then there are not many options for Barbre to choose from!
After a period of numb silence, Barbre finally struggled and said:
"Your Highness, Mr. Davidson... what is that 'plan' you are talking about? Can you tell me in detail?"
From the fact that the prince began to issue eviction orders just now after the old bishop proposed to give up the plan, Barbre naturally realized that if this plan was implemented, he would definitely be a part of it.
It's just... God knows what the hell plan that is
