Under the watchful eyes of Mary, Adal and Earl Schilling, James VIII walked into the meeting hall supported by an attendant.
A rare blush appeared on James VIII's pale face. Although he needed someone to help him while walking, he seemed to be in good spirits.
"Father."
"His Majesty."
The three of Mary got up one after another.
The old earl stood up directly and gave his chair to his friend. After seeing his friend sitting down, he said, "Is it because of what happened just now?"
While talking, the old earl looked displeased at the waiter beside him.
He was well aware of his old friend's body.
Therefore, he had already issued repeated orders not to allow the court attendant to tell James what happened in Luldry, and even if he wanted to say it, he would only choose some good news to say.
"Don't blame him."
"I forced him to say it."
James VIII spoke slowly.
Then the king looked at Mary with loving eyes.
"Trust your own decisions."
"But you also have to be responsible for your own decisions, understand?"
James VIII said so.
In a short sentence, His Majesty the King had to spend several times before he could say it completely.
"clear."
Mary nodded seriously.
Not perfunctory, but really understand.
In fact, the underage princess was already mentally prepared for the worst.
Looking at Mary nodding, James VIII showed a smile, and then he looked at Earl Shirin.
"Your Excellency, I have some matters that I need to discuss with Mary and Aedal alone."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After saluting, the young earl turned around and left the conference hall.
The waiter quickly saluted and wanted to leave, but was stopped by James VIII.
The old count glanced at the waiter in surprise.
In his impression, apart from Turner, no one can enjoy such trust.
Mary was equally surprised.
But the underage princess didn't ask too much, she believed that her father must have his own reasons for doing so.
And James VIII took the initiative to explain.
"He'll serve Mary instead of Turner."
The old king pointed to the waiter, who saluted Mary again.
The old count nodded thoughtfully.
He knows a little about the process of cultivating talents in the royal family.
Apart from all factors such as ability, loyalty comes first.
As for the other party who can replace that Turner, he is naturally someone who can rest assured.
Even, to some extent, the future partner will be far closer to Mary than him.
After all, some secret matters of the Warren royal family that cannot be told to others require this court attendant to take care of them.
call!
Thinking of this, the old count took a deep breath, and solemnly nodded to the other party as a gesture.
No jealousy, much less dissatisfaction.
The old earl was well aware of his identity and... age.
If only ten years younger!
He will definitely try his best to fight for this position.
And now
He just wants to help Mary as much as possible, so that this underage girl can understand more.
Perhaps, a little outdated.
But that's all he knows.
The waiter looked at the old earl, as if he was flattered, and formally saluted the old earl again as a response.
Looking at the friendly scene of his friends, daughter and waiter, the old king smiled gratifiedly.
Then, he restrained his smile.
"Aidal, it's time to tell Mary something."
"I'm not good enough to be a father."
"I'm not good enough to be a king either."
"I can say that I am a complete loser. I can't tell her all this, and I don't have the face to mention all this, so please help me to say it."
The old king spoke as calmly as possible.
But everyone present could hear the trembling of the other party's voice.
The old earl put his hand on his friend's shoulder and gave him a firm look.
"I have everything."
After the old earl finished speaking like this, he paused for a moment, as if he was summarizing and considering his words. After about ten seconds, the old earl spoke again.
"The Warren royal family has been hiding a secret."
"The place where the Dragon Faction last appeared in people's sights was the Warren Palace. This is known to many people, and it is not a secret."
"But the real secret is..."
"The real secret?"
"I think our previous conversation was very pleasant and frank."
The old earl's words were interrupted.
Qin Ran stepped out of the shadows with a proud face.
Seeing Qin Ran who came out, the old count was taken aback for a moment, and then his face turned red.
Don't get me wrong, it's not ashamed.
but...
anger!
"I Knew Genres Can't Be Trusted!"
"You are indeed spying on the secrets of the Warren royal family!"
The old count growled.
"Prejudice, it's terrible."
In an arrogant tone, 'Qin Ran' seemed to come slowly and quickly to Mary, and blocked Mary behind him, completely separating him from James VIII and the waiter.
After finishing all this, 'Qin Ran' continued.
"However, there is one thing you said is right, I have to admit."
"Genre! A genre with many forces and branches is really unbelievable."
"Because, they always use some tricks to perform poorly."
"It's disgusting to watch."
In such words, 'Qin Ran' looked at the waiter with a bit of disdain.
When 'Qin Ran' stood in front of her, the underage princess thought about it, and after hearing what 'Qin Ran' said at this moment, she quickly pulled the old earl to her side.
The old earl staggered and stood beside Mary. The old earl was not an idiot.
Just like what Qin Ran said, after 20 years in the south, even an idiot will become a very smart person.
What's more, the old earl himself was a smart man.
has a problem!
That waiter has a problem!
The old count looked at the waiter standing next to his old friend, his eyes were full of anxiety and worry, but he didn't say much, he knew what he should do at this time.
"well."
"There is really no way."
"I originally hoped to use a softer way to ask what I wanted to know, but unfortunately, he has already lost his mind. Even with the support of my secret medicine, it is just a drop in the bucket."
"Therefore, I have to spend a lot of time hoping to get what I want to know through the mouth of the Earl of Adalle."
"but… "
"Another accident happened."
The waiter suddenly sighed.
He stared at 'Qin Ran' and said word by word.
"Do the white wolves of the wolf faction always like to meddle so much?"
"Then you wouldn't mind talking to me somewhere else, would you?"
"Or… "
"Are you going to listen to the secrets of the Warren royal family here with me?"
The waiter gave the choice of 'Qin Ran'.
He was waiting for the answer from 'Qin Ran'.
He believed that Qin Ran was a smart person and would definitely choose the most suitable option.
What a cost-effective thing to get the secrets of the Warren royal family at no cost, why not do it
Unfortunately, at any time, reality is always the opposite of imagination.
The moment he finished speaking, he saw the corners of 'Qin Ran''s mouth slightly turned up, and the contempt and sarcasm in his eyes almost turned into substance.
