Chapter 208 Duke was sold (seeking a monthly pass)

This sound even alarmed the queen and prince who were looking out into the distance outside the New Palace.

"Mother Queen, is that the Duke of Marcus's horse team? Why do I think Duke of Marcus is more popular than his father?" Varian asked his mother slightly confusedly.

This question really made Boval, who was attending the side, sweat in a cold sweat.

The queen smiled apologetically to Berval and then educated the little prince: "Varian, remember that only those who let the people live a good life are the real heroes. From ancient times to the present, why are so many heroes who defeated evil existences praised and remembered by people? The key is that they fight for the people."

“Fight for the people?”

"Yes! Protect the people and let the people live a happy life, so they are heroes. Duke Marcus not only defeated the demon king Sargeras, but also defeated the orc attacks many times, used his fleet to save hundreds of thousands of citizens, and also allowed all citizens to live a life of food and clothing. So Duke Marcus is now the hero in the hearts of the people." The queen induced the little prince earnestly.

"Why did I hear the servant below talking about the bad things about the father, saying that he is the king of the devastated country, or something, not a hero."

The queen did not mind, but continued to induce Varian: "That's because the people blamed the fall of Stormwind on your father. Don't mind, Varian, one day, your father will take Stormwind back and become the great hero in your mind again. Also, as a king, never be jealous of the achievements of his subordinates. Just as your uncle Anduin was even more famous than your father, it was meaningless. The glory of a hero can never block the glory of the king. Do you understand?"

"I understand."

At this time, Duke's horse team had already arrived outside the new Storm Palace.

The queen took the prince to meet Duke.

Duke didn't expect that the queen said to the head: "Thank you for your hard work, Duke. You are so outstanding, but unfortunately Varian doesn't have a sister, otherwise I will definitely let you marry the royal family."

This sentence didn't even choke Duke to death. Although the royal family occasionally used marriage to win over their important officials, Duke never thought that this would happen to him.

Fortunately, Varian has no sisters.

"Uh, this, I'm actually still young... Don't look at me like this, I'm only 15 years old..." Duke stammered.

Duke also felt that he was blessed in disguise. The curse before Sargeras turned the young Kardgar into a little old man in history. But under the sharing of Medivh's father's soul and Lothar, and Medivh's counterattack came faster, he was just a few years old.

Not only did he look mature, but after staying in Karazan for a while, he also found that he had grown a lot taller. Now he is about 1.80 meters tall, just like a young man about 20 years old.

This made him much more convenient when negotiating with foreign big names. A minor teenager was not qualified to sit on the negotiating table. 18 years old is a watershed. Even if Duke is not actually 18 years old, but if he seems to have it, the other party will feel much better.

However, the queen's marriage really scared Duke.

Is this considered feeding a handful of dog food to a single man who has been single for twenty years in his previous life?

"Haha, it's true. Strictly speaking, Varian should call you brother. Come on, Varian, call Brother Duke."

"Hello brother!" Varian shouted very well.

In an instant, Duke's heart received a sense of happiness of 100,000 points. Damn, the players in his previous life were extremely respectful, and he was almost the representative of a great man of a generation, King Varianva actually called him brother.

Although Varian is just a handsome man now, King Wa is King Wa!

Duke was so moved.

Seeing Duke's strange touch, the queen and Duke Berval looked at each other and smiled.

"Duke, it's no wonder that you have just become a noble. Most nobles will arrange marriage partners by their parents or relatives before they become minors. Unfortunately, the major families in the Storm Kingdom suffered heavy damage, otherwise I will definitely find a way to find a beautiful noble girl for you as your wife."

Speaking of the word "beautiful", for some reason Duke remembered Aurelia's pair of the big devils. Well, well, at this moment, Duke became evil.

Logically speaking, if I become a duke, there should be some maid or a harem, and I will just make a fuss for myself? I am still busy all day like a dog, running around.

Alas, it’s all about tears if you think too much!

"Uh, this, I'm really not in a hurry. There are too many things to do now. Your Majesty just sent me instructions and there is a major task to me. The minister must complete this task first..." Duke said a few nonsense and ran away in panic.

Damn, arranged marriage!

What if I'm going to get this matter on my head? What if I'm stuffed with a crooked date? What if Aurelia wants to marry me?

Duke ran away while thinking.

The queen only found it funny: "Only at this time, people will feel that Duke is still a teenager!"

Bervar nodded with a smile.

"Yes, when we settle down a little, Duke Duke's marriage must be on our schedule. It is the king's business to make efforts for the revival of the Storm Kingdom at the negotiating table. It is my duty to seek more help from His Majesty the King through marriage. This is my duty as a queen. Varian is still too young, and Duke is just right."

Berval obviously did his homework: "My subordinates have thought about this too. Although I am a little sorry for Duke Duke, I did collect some information."

"Oh? Let's hear it?" The queen's eyes fluttered, and a small smirk was on her face.

Bervar gave the first choice: "The daughter of Ilushiya Barov, the daughter of the Duke of Barov, was the one who was more suitable for age and status."

The queen nodded slightly and then said, "Well, marriage with the Barov family can indeed solve our current problems. But it is not very ideal. On the one hand, it may touch the Ultrarank royal family, and on the other hand, I think Duke's achievements are more than that. It is a bit unqualified to be matched with a duke's daughter."

Berval immediately proposed a second candidate: "In fact, Duke Marcus is not only a promising mage, but his industry is mostly at sea, so he has a very suitable candidate."

"who?"

"His Highness Gianna Prodmore, Princess Kultilas, is only twelve years old, is learning magic in Dalaran."

"She! That is indeed a very suitable person. If we want to counterattack Stormwind in the future, we cannot do without the help of Kultilas."

"However, she seems to be closer to Prince Alsace of Lordaeron and Prince of Quelthalas Kelsace of Sun Chaser."

The queen frowned: "This is the case, maybe we need to see the situation. Any other recommendations?"
Chapter completed!
