Prince, which prince.
"Could it be the one we met that day!" Frelia recalled.
Several days ago, or to be exact, the day after the prison was burned down, Emperor Sel asked everyone to come to the hall for a discussion, and it was at that time that he did meet a prince.
"I guess it's him, but I don't know what he's here for...Please ask him to come in." Sean was a little confused but still invited the other party to come in first.
Now the entire imperial city is almost in a state of blockade. If no one comes, I will be regarded as a person with an idle position, who will not care about anything and it will be unimportant!
After watching the soldiers leave, they soon brought back a man in gorgeous clothes...
He was not very old, with a slight mustache, and was probably only a few years older than me.
"It doesn't seem to be the same one as before." Frelia noticed that the person who came was not the prince she had communicated with before, but another prince she had never seen before.
Having said that, there are quite a lot of royal relatives in the Keselk Empire. There are actually several princes who can rush to the capital within a few days!
Because of Jagun's special reasons, there are no extra royal relatives in this area. I don't know how they were arranged, but during the Basaran Empire, several princes were sent far away... On the one hand, they were allowed to manage various places, and on the other hand, it was also a kind of suppression of the local aristocratic groups.
After Sean gradually understood some of the emperor's mentality, he felt that the ability to exile the prince so far away showed that he was strong enough and did not worry about the other party. If he kept him too close or just gave the other party a false title for enjoyment, it meant that the emperor was not at ease with his throne.
Sean also knew that Emperor Serge was not a direct descendant of the orthodox line.
I guess that's why I'm most worried about my relatives.
The other party walked in and saluted politely...
"His Royal Highness Prince Sean."
"Your Highness!" Also as a return gesture, showing the same respect.
"We haven't met before." Sean asked Frelia to make tea while he began to inquire about the other party's background.
"I haven't seen him before. I just came from the western city of Horo a few days ago. Your Highness, you can just call me Langdon!"
He was quite humble in front of Sean. After all, according to the current situation, these so-called princes were just empty titles. They didn't have the real power of the Bashalan Empire. The aristocracy hadn't really gained any real power in this country for over 20 years. They had always been suppressed by the army, and the army was only in the hands of the emperor...
But compared to when the previous generation Emperor Williams was in power, the situation is obviously much better now.
But still no power!
In comparison, those who can command a large number of troops still have a certain prestige in the Adak Desert.
"Then what does Prince Langdon want to talk to me about today?" Since Sean had more power than the other party, he spoke much more directly. If there was anything, he would just ask without beating around the bush.
The tea is poured just right...
Langdon took a small sip, then looked at Frelia who was present and Lucille who was not far away on the other side.
"They are all my trusted confidants. Prince Langdon, if you have anything to say, you can just tell me directly. Don't worry..." Seeing the "Hesitation!" sign above the other person's head, I knew that he had something to say.
"Prince Sean is really as quick-witted as the rumors say. I'll be frank with you then."
Now that he had said that, Langdon didn't beat around the bush.
"Actually, I came here this time hoping that His Royal Highness could give us some help."
Sean suddenly became wary of the other person, and looked at the changing emotions above his head and made his own guesses.
"I don't quite understand what Your Highness means!"
"My father's name is Dulles Williams. He once met your mother, the former Desert Queen. I remember when I was a child, my father often mentioned to me the wisdom and intelligence of the former Desert Queen. At that time, she had contact with my family and hoped that we could become a solid ally of Jagun."
The other party said a lot of words.
These people still like to go around...
He even brought up his own mother to make a fuss, and he is still a solid ally.
Sean suddenly recalled that in the timeline more than 20 years ago, his mother Ayla was indeed able to find people who could help in this capital.
The old man is probably dead now, so his children and grandchildren don't need to worry about him... These people are probably other resources that Ayla found after the "Gate of Truth" incident that can be traded with other countries.
That is, people who can communicate with each other. The two places are far apart and need to share some information. However, this sharing is one thing, and it may also involve asking for help.
Sean has always insisted that he doesn't want to get involved in the power center of Keselke, but there are always people who want to pull him in...
"So, Your Highness is here to form an alliance?"
"Alliance... I like that idea." Langdon put down his teacup and showed an excited expression.
"My mother has been dead for many years, and her influence has gradually faded today... I may disappoint Your Highness, but I am only here as a guest, and Emperor Serge has even promised to help me find the lost navy."
"But hasn't Your Highness already found the navy himself?" Langdon said suddenly.
The action of drinking tea in hand stopped...
"How do you know?"
"My information may be more complete than Your Highness imagines."
For a moment, the other party's words really surprised Sean. He had someone send the letter out. With Mi'erke's ability, she would have said it when she replied if the letter had been opened.
This means that the news was leaked when Ma Luo and Mi Er Ke were carrying out their orders...
The other party is showing off to me how extensive his network and intelligence are.
"Your Highness Langdon really surprised me, but as I said just now, I'm here as a guest and don't want to make friends with anyone alone..." Sean didn't like beating around the bush, so he just refused directly.
But the other party still doesn't seem to give up.
"Doesn't Prince Sean have his own enemies in Jagun? Perhaps we can help each other!"
Seeing that he had been rejected, Langdon began to speak frankly.
"I have no rivals, and I won't have any in the future. If Your Highness has nothing else to do, you'd better be more careful recently. I heard that the palace is not the safest." Sean said.
If they continued talking, there might be a quarrel, but the other party did not have the capital to quarrel with the Desert Prince, so in the end he could only leave a sentence: "Your Highness, please think about it again" and then left.
Sean was a little confused as he watched Landon leave from the window.
Is the situation outside so serious?
They were actually starting to form cliques in the palace, and he was still someone else's guest. Sean didn't believe that Emperor Sel wouldn't be unaware of the other party's presence.
"Sean..."
"What's wrong?"
When he turned around, it was Frelia who called him.
"You are so impatient!"
