Doomsday Code

Chapter 482 Kingly Thought

"This madman."

Huidun clenched his fists. He now understood that the arrogance that Jinmu had shown before was all fake. He was just a madman.

Chen Cheng was not surprised by the news, but patted Huidun on the shoulder and said:

"It is obvious that our Majesty will not interfere. We do not have the advantage of fighting at home right now. This time it was just the Potion Master who poisoned and assassinated us. No one knows whether he will use the power of the church."

After hearing this, Huidun clenched his fists even more.

"Let's not say these discouraging words. You've been so busy lately that I can't remind you. Now that I have some free time today, you should start your blind date. You can't let girls wait for you any longer."

Chen Cheng pulled Huidun up and asked him to change his clothes and go for the blind date.

Huidun sighed heavily. Now was a life-and-death battle, and he didn't want to implicate others.

Seeing this, Chen Cheng advised:

"Let's go. There's no point in sulking here. Maybe after a blind date and some relaxation, you'll have a solution when your mind is clear."

Now that Moss XIII sits on the throne and remains neutral, Huidun really feels the tremendous pressure from Jinm.

In terms of business, if the banks had not been protected by Moss XIII due to their special status, they would have been in total retreat by now.

Politically, the ministers that Princess Phipsa had previously won over in her name were now being defeated by the Treasury's men.

Especially after Prime Minister Homuis played the ostrich, even Princess Phipsha's base, the Ministry of Finance, is now in turmoil.

Perhaps just as Chen Cheng said, he needs to relax his mind and get away from all these busy things, then he may be able to see the situation more clearly.

Huidun was dragged into a flashy dress, and then he and Chen Cheng took a carriage to the Marquis's Mansion.

When the people in the Marquis' Mansion saw that it was Huidun who came, they immediately went in to report.

"Please wait here for a moment, Lord Earl. I will go and report to the head of the family."

Huidun nodded and let him go in to report.

Soon Xiao Dun had someone open the middle door to welcome the two into the mansion.

After arriving at the hall, Marquis Soran, now also with white hair, stood up to greet them.

"Your Highness, please."

Soran led Huidun to sit down, and then asked the servants to serve tea.

After the servants left, Huidun stood up and said:

"There are no outsiders here. I have been very busy with official duties these days, so I didn't come to see my uncle."

There is nothing wrong with Huidun calling Sauron like that, because Sauron and Moss XIII were sworn brothers.

However, after Moss XIII ascended the throne, this sworn brotherhood was naturally no longer mentioned.

When Soran heard this, he waved his hand and said:

"Your Highness, you can't do that. The king is still the king, and I, Sauron, am only Sauron."

Although Soran said this, his face still showed a loving look as if he was looking at his sons and nephews.

Huidun knew that this was Sauron trying to avoid suspicion. After all, it would not be good for anyone if such words got out.

"Your Highness, you didn't come here just to see me this time, right? My little girl is now old enough to get married, and maybe I can even become closer to Your Highness."

As he spoke, Sauron stroked his beard and laughed.

Huidun was also very embarrassed. Before he could even open his mouth, his father had already revealed the purpose of his visit.

"Since uncle already knows, then I won't hide it. I came here for the young lady, but I don't want this to be just an arranged marriage."

Seeing that there were no outsiders around, Huidun spoke out the truth.

Since Sauron first said that they could get married, he told Huidun that he would support him, so Huidun said it directly.

"I hope to have a blind date with the young lady before getting engaged, that is, to meet and chat with each other, and discuss each other's ideas about the other half. If it is suitable, it will not be too late to get married.

Otherwise, I don’t want to ruin your life.”

To be honest, it was a very bold thing for Huidun to tell Sauron about a blind date.

You have to know that they are not looking for a marriage of mutual affection, but a political marriage. In a political marriage, politics comes first. As for love in a marriage, it is better if there is love, but if not, it is just like that.

The fact that Soran agreed was not because he had not considered his beloved daughter, but as a veteran soldier, he knew that he could not hesitate in doing things, and that if he gained something, he would lose something.

And since his sworn brother has already chosen followers for him, he can be ruthless and sacrifice his daughter's marriage.

But now, after listening to Huidun's words, he suddenly had a change of perception towards Huidun.

He is not his father, nor is he a pure political machine.

At least the fact that he could stand in front of her and talk about going on a blind date at this time was enough to prove that he had a beautiful vision for his marriage.

Then I thought about Huidun’s background. Perhaps he had experienced the pain of his parents’ unhappy marriage, so he had such naive ideas about marriage.

Looking at Huidun's resolute eyes, he sighed and said in a very gloomy voice:

"Your Highness, have you really decided? If your Highness doesn't like my daughter, then you should reject this marriage."

If Huidun had been confused by other bullshit before, he wouldn't have realized the seriousness of today's incident.

And now he has woken up.

Ever since his forces suffered a blow, Marquis Soran has not sent any forces to help him.

Even Xiao Dun, who was originally the captain of his guards, left the Earl's Mansion on the night of entering the city.

However, Huidun thought about himself. He was ready to change, and the first change would start with his marriage.

"Uncle, what you said is not right. I haven't had a blind date with the young lady yet, so the marriage is naturally not settled yet, so it can't be considered as rejecting the marriage. Otherwise, once such rumors spread, it will damage the young lady's reputation."

Soran thought Huidun would say some heroic words or just agree directly.

But I didn't expect that he would say something like this out of consideration for his daughter's reputation.

Huidun, on the other hand, thought that those big words were not important. He would feel uneasy if the reputation of a girl he had never met was damaged because of this matter.

Chen Cheng, who was standing aside, was watching the conversation between Huidun and Sauron. To be honest, he felt that Huidun was the man of destiny.

As for Sauron's gloomy and half-threatening words just now, what he wanted to say at that time was the pretentious words of Thirty years in the east and Thirty years in the west.

Then he told Sauron that he could sit on the throne without his support.

It is obvious that Huidun is a man of the right path. He does not need any domineering words to swear anything, but he has seen the harm to an innocent woman if such news gets out.
