“Too hard to drink?”

The second prince's invitation was very sincere, and Lin En's answer was also very decisive. It was this answer... but it was undoubtedly beyond the second prince's expectations. He made him blink his eyes twice, and he didn't understand what this meant at all.

It would be fine if he was really wary of poisoning him.

Is it hard to drink wine?

This is the best drinker in the entire capital, and it is the latest masterpiece of the royal winemaker!

What is this reason?

"Your Highness the Second Prince just treats us as not used to drinking bars, so don't care about the details."

"I wonder what the Second Prince is doing to invite us this time?"

Lynn doesn't want to argue with the second prince here whether this wine is hard to drink or good to drink.

Anyway, there were no one else, so he didn't want to keep it in a slight way, so he just went straight to the point.

He wanted to see what the Second Prince wanted to say to him!

"Young Master Lelic, you don't have to be so nervous. I actually have no malice or hostility towards you."

Lin En didn't want to talk much nonsense, but the second prince mistakenly thought he was nervous, so he immediately smiled and tried to let Lin En relax.

However, Lynn heard his words, which made him laugh.

nervous?

Where did you see me nervous?

"I think you should have misunderstood the Second Prince."

"Although you are indeed the second heir to this country, it doesn't mean I'm afraid of you."

"Even your brother, the great prince, was beaten up by Margaret. If it were you today, would it make me nervous or scared?"

Shaking his head gently, Lynn turned his head and looked at the lord lady beside him.

If I really say it, I should be the second prince opposite me who is nervous.

My lord lady is unreasonable.

She even dared to beat the eldest prince, let alone you, the second heir?

"You really... dare to say..."

When Lin Neng said this, the second prince couldn't help but open his mouth wide.

When the eldest prince was hit hard by the lord's iron fist, he almost became the laughing stock of the capital.

How can scars like this be revealed casually?

What's more, the second prince also understood very well that Lin En actually had a threatening meaning inside and outside.

That's right!

There are only three of them in this room. Not to mention the lord lady, even if it is Lin En himself, what effort can it take to clean up a second prince who is powerless?

If it were someone else, it might be impossible to have the courage.

But facing Lynn and Margaret…

"Well, I think I really should start to get nervous."

After taking a sip of wine, His Highness the Second Prince stepped back a little and kept a distance from Lynn and Miss Lord.

He discovered that his identity as the second prince seemed to be useless in his eyes.

"So now... can the Second Prince start?"

The performance of the second prince made Lin En frown gently.

Although he didn't know what the other party was selling in the gourd, he was not in the mood to play puzzles with the other party here.

"You are really an impatient person... but forget it, it's better."

"Master Lelic and Miss Villet, I think you should have heard the news. Today's dinner was actually prepared by me for Miss Villet."

Lynn's directness made the second prince smile bitterly.

The whole story I prepared before was useless. It was so simple and crude, but it really didn't fit the habits of the nobles at all.

But there was no way. Since everyone said that, he couldn't keep it in hiding. He could only sigh and slowly speak.

"We have indeed heard of this news. Not only that, it is said that His Highness the Second Prince also plans to propose to Margaret at this banquet. I wonder if the news is wrong?"

After hearing what the second prince said, Lin En nodded and admitted.

But at the same time, while he was suspicious of the other party's intentions, he also spoke up to test.

If you take the initiative to mention this matter, the purpose of the Second Prince is probably not just about engagement?

"It is true, it is an order from my father himself to approach Miss Villet, and, if possible, propose to Miss Villet."

The second prince's face showed a little bitterness when he was asked to propose to Lynn.

He did not hide it and told everything about it, but it was precisely because of this that Lin Neng frowned even more.

"Since this is the order issued by His Majesty the King, then the Second Prince tells us at this time that he is planning to give up the proposal?"

Lynn was waiting for the other party's answer as he narrowed his eyes and stared at the second prince opposite.

"Even if I don't want to give up, it's impossible to succeed, right?"

"I have to say that Master Lelic, you are indeed a very outstanding person. I was surprised before, why Miss Villet chose you as her fiancé, but now... I'm not surprised."

"With a fiancé like you, no matter how hard I try, it will be difficult to win Miss Villet's favor."

"It's not very difficult! It's simply impossible!"

Faced with Lin En's inquiry, His Highness the Second Prince did not hide it. He spread his hands and expressed his failure with a frank expression.

But his words made the lord lady beside him suddenly speak.

She doesn't like the word "hard" because in her opinion, it's simply impossible!

"Okay, it's impossible."

"So I plan to give up."

The Lord's words made His Highness raise his hand to surrender.

But the giving up in his mouth surprised Lin En.

"If His Highness the Second Prince would think so, that would be great."

"But you invited me to come, probably not just to tell me... you gave up, right?"

give up?

Is it really that simple?

"Of course not. Actually, I invited Mr. Lelic to discuss a cooperation with you."

Oh, waiver?

Give up proposal and seek cooperation?

This is a very interesting idea, which undoubtedly aroused Lynn's interest.

"Then I wonder what cooperation His Highness the Second Prince plans to discuss with me?"

Looking at the opposite side with great interest, Lin En really wanted to know what the second prince wanted to cooperate with him.

"It's actually very simple. I want to get the first-ranked inheritance rights in this country, so I need to get the dual support of the Villet family and the Lelick family."

"As long as I can defeat Brother Wang and inherit the throne in the future, I will promise to give back to you both with all my might, even if it is to give you support for the establishment of a principality!"

Under Lynn's gaze, the second prince spoke with a serious expression.

And the cooperation he mentioned was undoubtedly very bold!

Why do you say so?

He wanted to overthrow the eldest prince, but that was nothing. After all, there was only one throne, and everyone wanted to sit there, which only showed that he was very ambitious.

But the conditions he gave were really bold.

Establish a Principality!

What does that mean?

The so-called principality is actually an affiliated country under the kingdom. It accepts the protection of the kingdom, but can be independent of the kingdom without any obligation.

Take Winter collar as an example.

Once Winter becomes a principality, the taxes that need to be paid to the kingdom every year can be exempted. When the kingdom encounters war, it will not be forced to be conscripted. If you are willing to join the war, it is great, but if you are not willing to join the war, your Majesty the King cannot force you.

Such benefits are really too great. Many great dukes are working hard to establish a principality, but the kingdom cannot make a promise easily.

No principality has been established in at least the past century.

Now that the Second Prince has given such a weight, it is really hard to refuse.
