Chapter 900: Go find your Princess Lena, you and I are not the same person
"Master Bree, why do you favor that thief?" Flanders asked angrily.
He was humiliated in the Principality of Langton, and as compatriots, Buri and Cato, just looked at him with cold eyes, so he came to question him while the mission was resting.
"Flanders, what evidence do you have to accuse Archduke Langton of being a thief?" Brie didn't care about Flanders's attitude. After all, he learned from Lu Xingshi that Flanders' mind had been tampered with, so again Being brainless is also normal.
Besides, he still needs Flanders as a weapon to attack the aristocracy and the royal family, so he is naturally very tolerant.
"He...I..." Flanders was stuck. He really couldn't produce any evidence, but soon he found his blind spot: "He is just a wandering knight, not qualified to be the Grand Duke of the Empire."
"And I am the true heir of the Langton family."
"I am the only one who has the orthodox Langton family bloodline, and he is just a side branch."
"What qualifications do you have to be a Grand Duke?" The more Flanders talked, the broader his ideas became, starting from family, inheritance, righteousness, bloodline, etc.
Bree was speechless after hearing this.
The aristocrats in the empire will agree with what you said, but the problem is that the aristocrats don't dare to use this reason to let you replace the Grand Duke Langton.
They had soldiers, food, money, and territory. The empire's 50,000 steam soldiers were defeated by the opponent, and the empire's beast Cato was also captured.
You open your mouth with these empty words, just thinking about letting others give up their power and position to you. You are thinking a little too easily.
It is not an easy task for the empire's senior officials to bring down the Grand Duke who has just joined.
"Flanders, what you said is very correct, but I'm sorry that this requires you to go through the legal process yourself to get back the noble status and territory of Archduke Langton."
"After all, the Grand Duke Langton procedure is recognized by the empire." Bree said it very formally.
"Mr. Bree, are you supporting me???" Flanders said with joy on his face.
"Ah?" Bri was a little confused, why did he support you? He was obviously perfunctory, but he quickly realized that Flanders had a mental problem, so he quickly made up for it: "I don't support you, I just give you Just a suggestion."
How could I, a steam-faction imperial official, support a noble-faction tool like you?
"Okay." Flender's expression suddenly dropped. If he had the support of Mr. Buri, his lawsuit against Lu Xingshi would definitely be smoother: "Then how should I collect the evidence to get back that The title stolen by a thief?"
He had no idea how to fight a lawsuit.
Bu Li's complexion became increasingly weird: "I don't know, but you can go to the Imperial Court of Arbitration for consultation."
You don’t need to think about this lawsuit to know that it is definitely unwinnable.
Even if you can win, how should you execute it?
Did you go to Archduke Langton with the verdict of the Imperial Court of Arbitration?
If it were that easy, then how could all the countries develop extraordinary soldiers, and they would just take over other countries' territory with a single judgment.
Without enough strength and power, even if Flanders went to the Principality of Langton with the verdict, the most likely outcome would be death or better imprisonment.
"But I remember Mr. Bree, you graduated from the Imperial Law School, and you are still a titular professor of the Law School." Flanders asked suspiciously.
"You also know that was before. Now I have not read the law for many years in order to deal with various official duties." Brie said with a smile: "Okay, Flanders."
"Don't ask me these questions again. Princess Lina also studies laws."
"You can go ask her. Are you planning to get along with a middle-aged man like me and don't want to ask the beautiful Princess Lina for advice?"
Bree finally saw that Flanders really couldn't understand the words and couldn't read his expressions. He even expressed his attitude of being a jerk, but in the end, he still asked questions.
But it doesn't matter, he still has experience in dealing with Flanders.
After all, Flender is a fanatical pursuer of Princess Lena, so as long as the topic is changed to Princess Lena, Flender will definitely be diverted.
When Flanders heard this, his eyes lit up, and he had indeed forgotten about it.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Bree."
"Princess Lina also understands the law. I believe she will be able to provide me with great help in regaining my title."
After Flanders finished speaking, he left directly without paying any attention to Bree.
"No manners at all. I was blinded by beauty."
"Even if his mind has not been distorted, I'm afraid it won't be much better." Bree shook his head and expressed dissatisfaction with Flanders' attitude.
"He's just a noble from a small territory. If he was really capable, he would be the Grand Duke Langton today." Cato walked over.
He had seen all the exchange between Bree and Flanders just now.
It's just that he didn't intervene. To him, this was just a small episode.
What? Is Flanders really planning to sue Archduke Langton? This is a joke.
You don't need to think about it to know that you will definitely not win.
But if we really win the lawsuit, it will definitely be a lot of fun.
It is not impossible for Flanders to win. If the noble faction and the royal family are really willing to spend money, the Imperial Court of Arbitration will naturally be able to proceed according to their wishes.
But what's the use? Is it possible that Flanders can really replace Archduke Langton?
Don’t even think about it.
"He is indeed just a nobody, but that is not the courtesan princess."
"Princess Lena has many subordinates," Brie said. Cato didn't think so: "No matter how beautiful the vase is, there is still a big gap when it comes to swords forged from fire and blood."
"The beauty of the vase has no meaning in the face of power."
"She can confuse Flanders, but she cannot confuse Archduke Langton."
"Otherwise, how could she be treated like trash and sent back directly by Archduke Langton?" Cato didn't like Princess Lina at all.
The same is true for Lu Xingshi. If Princess Lina's beauty is really effective, then she should stay in the Principality of Langton now and become Lu Xingshi's knight apprentice.
"That's really a pity." Brie joked. If he were in Lu Xingshi's position, he wouldn't necessarily pack Princess Lina and throw her back.
Even if you don't look at the appearance, you will also pay attention to the political impact.
Just thinking about it again, this is also the difference between myself and Lu Xingshi, so he is Grand Duke Langton, but I am not.
Not only was he not decisive enough, he was also hesitant.
"But are you sure you don't want to stop it? Flanders's mind has been twisted, who knows what he will do." Cato pointed to the carriage not far away: "If any royal scandal breaks out, you It’s hard for me to explain.”
But Bree smiled: "Wouldn't it be better? We can also give Archduke Langton an explanation."
"After all, this time, the aristocracy and the royal family stretched their hands too far."
"I don't know what agreement we reached with them, but the people above could actually agree to it."
To be honest, Bree was dissatisfied with this decision made by the top management of the Steam School.
The Principality of Langton was indeed once an enemy, but they cooperated in all aspects. There were definitely flaws, but they were all to protect their own interests.
The results achieved in all aspects are very satisfactory.
You must know that they are not the victors, but the losers.
No matter how powerful the empire was, it would not be able to continue the stalemate with Lu Xingshi. In the end, it would only become a thorn in the belly of the empire.
But now this thorn has disappeared and has become a boost to the empire.
Loyalty or not is not important. If it is tied up with enough interests and controlled indirectly through economic, food and other means, then this Grand Duke Langton is the most powerful sword of the empire, which can clear a lot of thorns for the empire.
But if they mess around like this, something could easily happen.
"It's nothing more than a test. After this time, the strategy will change."
"And it's not that there is no gain at all. Flanders can be the trigger to eliminate the aristocratic faction within the empire." Cato's status is higher than that of Bree, so he can see things more clearly than he does.
The Steam Faction just acquiesced to the behavior of the royal family and the Noble Faction, and slightly adjusted their strategy, which made Lu Xingshi have a good impression of their Steam Faction, and also created a sharp blade to stab the Noble Faction.
Overall, it's beneficial.
…
Flanders got off Princess Lena's carriage, and the smile on his face never stopped.
He got Princess Lena's advice and already knew how he should bring down the thief who was a wandering knight.
It’s true that I have no evidence, but is evidence important? It doesn't matter, he can fake it.
On the carriage, Princess Lena promised that the royal family would help him, and many nobles were on the same side as him.
As long as he goes to the Imperial Court of Arbitration to sue Archduke Langton, the verdict will definitely be his victory.
Everyone in the Imperial Court of Arbitration will support him.
So this is a must-win situation.
In addition, during the communication process, Princess Lina vaguely told him that as long as he could regain his title and become the Grand Duke of the Orei Empire, she would marry her.
Although it was not stated explicitly, this intention was expressed in every move.
In Flanders, he thought to himself that the reason why he did not speak out directly was because Princess Lena had concerns. He was just an artist and his social status was sufficient, but there was no way to get the royal family to recognize him.
Therefore, the status of a duke is needed to gild oneself.
Flanders didn't really care about the identity of the Duke. After all, with his ability, he could even control the identity of an artist, let alone a mere Duke, but he just didn't want to.
If he thought about it, how could he not be able to do it? A mere branch of a wandering knight could do it, but he was a noble from birth and a direct descendant of the Langton family. How could he not be able to do it?
"Perjury...who should I contact?" Flanders quickly became confused and at a loss. Princess Lina had an idea, but she didn't tell him what to do, so he couldn't. .
His eyes fell on Princess Lina's carriage again, and his eyes lit up: "How about...asking Princess Lina for help again!"
"I wouldn't worry about finding anyone else." Flanders suddenly became confident. Princess Lina will marry him in the future, sooner or later.
Then wouldn't it be much better to find your fiancée to advise you than to find someone else?
After all, both parties share weal and woe, so how could Princess Lina harm herself?
Of course, this is just his idea. Princess Lena has never said these words directly. They are all euphemisms for non-stick pans. How you understand them has nothing to do with Princess Lena.
