Ford was very firm in his decision, as if it had been decided long ago. No matter how Ryan argued, Ford refused to nod.
Ryan had no choice but to give up and said, "Father, aren't you afraid that if I take over the Violet Province, it will cause chaos there?"
"Besides, the Violet Province is a well-known and prosperous territory in the Empire. It already has a fixed administrative system. What can I do if I come here?"
Ford smiled mysteriously and said something with a hint of deep meaning.
"You can stir up chaos, of course. After all, the Violet Province is now officially the territory of my Grey family. As the direct heir of the family, you can do whatever you want as long as you don't arouse public outrage."
Hearing this, Ryan frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he understood his father's deep meaning.
"Father, are you saying...that those families in Violet Province still disobey our Grey Family?"
Ford nodded and said, "Well, the Violet Province was not the territory of a marquis before, so it has always been jointly ruled by three earl families."
"They are: the Owens, the Isaacs, and the Hewitts."
"Because I was promoted to the seventh rank, His Majesty bestowed the Violet Province upon my Grey family, allowing them to directly parachute themselves above the three major families. Although they were certainly obedient on the surface, they were not doing so in secret."
"Assigning you to the Violet Province as an official is both to train your ability to make decisions about overall situations and to test the attitudes of the three major families."
"Those who can be recruited will be recruited, and those who cannot be recruited will be killed with a single blow. In our Grey family's territory, there can only be one voice."
After Ford finished speaking, the room fell silent.
Ryan didn't realize that the word "father" had another meaning.
"You really want me to do whatever I want?" Ryan asked uncertainly.
"Of course, as long as it doesn't have a negative impact on the economy of Violet Province, you can do whatever you want, even if you kill people on the streets of Violet Province." Ford nodded affirmatively.
As if thinking of something, he added, "But the premise is that you have to be right. Don't let the Grey family lose its reputation in the Violet Province."
"Anyway, after you're in trouble, just act boldly. Jonas and I will back you up."
Seeing that Ryan wanted to ask something else, Ford shook his head and said, "Okay, Jonas will tell you in detail about the situation in Violet Province when you return to the royal city. I have other things to tell you."
"Father, please speak." Seeing this, Ryan did not ask any more questions.
"The second thing is the marriage."
"Marriage!?" Ryan stood up immediately, looking incredulous.
"Father, are you saying that I want to marry into a foreign alliance?"
"Yes, you've seen the marriage partner. She's Wendiya, the granddaughter of President Milo of the Magic Association."
"Besides, it was Wendiya who married into the family, not you, so why are you in such a hurry?" Ford looked surprised.
Listening to Ford's words, Ryan's mind suddenly emerged with Wendiya's youthful and beautiful appearance like a female college student, and then he sat back.
The long black straight beauty who came to my door would eat it if I didn't...
"Oh, that's not impossible." Ryan thought of Wendiya and said.
Ford rolled his eyes at Ryan, saying he was taking advantage of the situation.
"As for the wedding date, we'll have to wait until you return from the Land of Mist. After all, you'll be very busy during this period."
Then he reached out and took the Mist Leader token on the coffee table and drove Ryan away.
"Okay, that's all I have to say. Go find Estella to treat your arm."
Ryan nodded, and just as he was about to get up and leave, he thought of something and asked.
"Father, what about the Mist Token in my hand? Can you leave some for me?"
"What do you want the Mist Token for?" Ford asked doubtfully.
"I want to bring the Knights of the Crown Guard to the Land of Mists."
"The Knights of the Crown Guard? You hold the Mist Leader Token, and they hold the Mist Token. After entering the Mist Land, the teleportation locations are different. How will you gather them... Oh, and you have a secret realm."
Ford suddenly realized it, and then his face was serious as he thought about Ryan's idea.
Ryan has a total of 500 Mist Tokens in his hands, as well as a secret realm that he can carry with him, so he can let each member of the Crown Guard Knights hold a Mist Token and stay in Ryan's secret realm.
After entering the Land of Mist, the Knights in the Rennes Secret Realm will not be "detected" by the Land of Mist due to the isolation of the secret realm, so they will not be teleported away.
After Ryan is teleported to his own territory through the Mist Territory Token, release the Knights of the Crown Guard, so as to avoid Ryan and the Knights of the Crown Guard being separated.
And as far as Ford knew, the knights of the Knights of the Rayne Crown Guard were basically at the advanced level of the third order, which was a considerable help.
Thinking that Ryan's idea could indeed be done, Ford made a prompt decision.
"Okay, I'll discuss the 500 Mist Tokens in your hand with His Majesty. I think I can only secure a distribution of 300 to 400 Mist Tokens for you."
Upon hearing this, Ryan was overjoyed. "Thank you, father. Even if there are only 300 Mist Tokens, it is enough for the plan I mentioned."
Ford nodded solemnly, "Okay, go find Estella. Now that I've heard your idea, I think we can really work together more."
"By the way, let me ask you something. Last time you said you could transfer the inherent secret realm, how did you do that?"
"Can I wear the inherent secret realm on my body, or can I only move it to a new location?"
Ryan shook his head, "Father, this..."
As if seeing Ryan in trouble, Ford stopped asking and said, "Forget it, if you don't want to talk about it, then don't talk about it."
"You have your own opportunity, but don't tell anyone else about it... Your Majesty, don't tell anyone about it either. Do you understand?"
"It's father." Ryan nodded.
Ford took Ryan out of his room, ignored Ryan, and went to discuss with Albert about the matter of the mist token in Ryan's hand.
Seeing this, Ryan slowly walked down the stairs, walked out of the villa and manor, and walked towards the elves' manor.
