Your notoriety is known to everyone

Chapter 84 Rogers’ influence and engagement controversy (4k)

Rogers put the apple back on the plate, crossed his fingers and stretched.

"The fact that the prince knows how to knock on the door shows that he is still sane at this moment."

After exhaling a long breath comfortably, he muttered without changing his expression, then turned around again and opened the bedroom door.

Prince Leiaide's blond hair looked more messy than usual, there were faint veins on his forehead, and there was unconcealable anger in the deep eye sockets.

Luo Gesi felt that the opponent's aura was like a lion ready to roar and kill at any time, which brought him real pressure.

"You kid..." Prince Leiaide squeezed out a few words through his teeth, then opened his hand and grabbed Logos's shoulder. However, before he could fully grasp it, Logos's face turned pale. An expression of unbearable pain slowly emerged.

The prince frowned and looked at the opponent's hand that had not yet grasped the opponent's hand, raised his posture a little, and the unbearable pain in Luo Gesi's eyebrows gradually relaxed, and his mouth that was slightly open to scream slowly closed.

When the prince slowly moved his hand to his shoulder again, the expression on Rogers' face became slightly grim again, as if time had gone backwards.

At this point, Prince Leiaide suddenly recalled what happened when he first met Rogers on the Star Observation Tower. At that time, he did not exert any force, and the other party immediately started crying.

But now, this damn acting seems to have become more proficient.

"Your Highness, Lufia is still sleeping. I hope you can keep your voice down so as not to disturb her." Rogers put his index finger in front of his mouth and reminded him kindly.

Prince Leiaide's cheeks turned red instantly, his lips trembled with anger, and his eyes were wide open, filled with unspeakable anger and grief.

"Isn't the Duke here? She doesn't know about this yet?" Rogers poked his head out the door and saw only Hans with a sad face standing aside, and no one else.

Then he withdrew his scrutinizing gaze and continued: "You don't want the Duke to know about this, right? And it would be even worse if it accidentally spreads to the outside world.

"I already have a bad reputation. It doesn't matter if my reputation will get worse. But Lufia is different. You must take her into consideration."

Prince Leiaide looked at Rogoth's instructive and instructive appearance, his breathing became rapid and heavy, and his chest heaved violently.

But then Alice and Alina appeared, making his breath stagnant again. His fingers pointed tremblingly at Luo Gesi's forehead. He wanted to speak out, wanted to express his inner emotions, but his throat was blocked by the majestic... Anger clogs tightly.

"Your Highness, we went out last night and just came back not long ago. Lufia just wanted to come to Rogers' room last night to take a look, but she fell asleep before we left because she was sleepy." Elena raised her skirt and bowed. , explained softly.

"Yes, I can testify for them that it was me...the second prince who took us out." Alice saluted and then added.

"What?" Prince Leiaide said in surprise, but perhaps he was really afraid of disturbing Lufia, so he suppressed the last part of his voice.

The remaining anger on his face remained, and he was shocked by the news, and his expression suddenly became extremely weird.

"Can we go to the corridor to talk?" After Luo Gesi suggested it, he ordered Hans: "Go and prepare some breakfast. His Royal Highness should not have eaten yet, so it is just a good time to entertain him."

Prince Leiaide nodded slightly with a complicated expression and agreed to this request.

The circular corridor in front of Luo Gesi's bedroom has a strong classical atmosphere. Towering pillars surround the corridor, giving people a solemn and gorgeous feeling.

A gorgeous bonsai is displayed in the central circular space, dotted with bright flowers and green plants, adding vitality and vitality to the corridor.

Rogers came to the floor-to-ceiling windows covered with carvings and felt the sobriety brought by the early morning sunlight. After Leyard sat on the couch, he also sat down on the sofa opposite the prince and leaned against the soft on the backrest.

The world outside the window is completely white, with large snowflakes gently covering the ground and trees. Behind the vegetation, there are servants in thick cotton coats, wearing gloves and tools to take care of the snow.

Rogers looked at it for a moment and then withdrew his gaze. He said with a serious expression: "Last night we encountered an attack from the Benedictine Monastery. They even tried to unleash a disaster in the Breed Territory."

Prince Leiaide frowned when he heard this. When these words came out of Logos's mouth, he knew the problem in the saint's words just now.

The second prince might have been involved last night, but it was definitely the boy in front of him who took a few people out.

"You told me this matter so straightforwardly..." Prince Leiaide paused for a moment before he spoke. He glanced at Alina and Alice beside Rogos, and saw that Rogos had no evasive reaction. Finally, he continued: "You mean that other forces are likely to be involved in this matter?"

"The Imperial Court has already charged me, and even the judge has come to the East to try me." Rogers shrugged slightly, and his words were clearly directed at the royal family.

"Do you know how worrying you are right now? The Saint is partial to you, multiple magic schools want to win over you, and Delik, the son of the Marquis of the Southern Border, is rumored to have a very good personal relationship with you.

"Coupled with your relationship with the daughter of the Dewen family, and because I have prevented disasters for you many times, my wife and I have also been tacitly regarded as a force that favors the east.

"This is just what you did within half a year before you fully grew up.

"If you continue to develop and these relationship ties can still be maintained normally, then your influence on the Imperial Parliament's words will..."

Prince Leiaide said no more words at this point, and just frowned and looked at Logos.

He knew that Luo Gesi had the ability of "prophet", but most of his actions did not fall into the category of "prophet".

Especially for his academic achievements, he was known as a "little sage". It would be fine if he was just an ordinary "little sage". The most complicated thing about the matter is that Luo Gesi is still of the blood of an orthodox feudal noble.

The Imperial Council is divided into four levels: priests, nobles, magicians and citizens.

Among them, magicians are scattered among schools, and their biggest desire is to study magic intensively. St. Helte is obviously not interested in politics, so magicians have always appeared as dependents of various nobles, and most of them don't even have any knowledge at all. Interested in participating in political discussions and bill advancement.

But the appearance of Logos is very likely to change this balance. With his call, some magic schools may really be able to condense into a faction that cannot be ignored. Coupled with the support of the family in the east, if it is allowed to develop , the future will inevitably become difficult to estimate.

"Your Highness, it is not necessarily a bad thing for me to attract hatred like this, especially for your wife and Lufia.

"A certain fisherman near the sea said that the bigger the wind and waves, the more expensive the fish. And for some things, you need to seize the most accurate timing to get the maximum profit." After Luo Gesi finished speaking, he looked at the cheese platter and baked goods. Sandwiches, stew and other breakfast items were brought to the long table in front of them one by one by the servants.

After consulting Prince Leiaide who was deep in thought, he, Erina and Alice started eating with a knife and fork.

"Then get ready to get engaged to Lufia." Prince Leiaide thought for a long time and said in a deep voice, as if he had made some kind of determination.

Luo Gesi choked when he heard the words. He swallowed the food in his mouth with difficulty. Before he could respond, Alina beside him said:

"With all due respect, Your Highness, the engagement between Luo Gesi and me has been made long ago. I hope you can know it."

"Child, you and Logos haven't been officially engaged yet, have you?" Prince Leiaide didn't care about Alina's rudeness and continued to talk very kindly:
"As long as you are not engaged, it is not a breach of contract, and as a noble, you also know the nature of the marriage. This matter has nothing to do with feelings.

"What I want is just a guarantee and a stable investment. In the future, he can just hold a wedding ceremony with Lufia."

Rogers took a napkin and wiped his mouth. He felt that what Prince Leyard wanted was to hold a wedding ceremony with Lufia. Doing nothing else would be in the best interest of the prince.

And the other party was able to make this decision, probably because he was stimulated by the royal family's violent reaction to him, both overt and covert.

After all, Lufia's royal bloodline combined with her father, a prince, who was inclined towards the feudal aristocracy, and her mother, a duke, who was directly a feudal aristocrat, intuitively seemed to be no less of a threat than herself.

Fortunately, Lufia is a girl, and she hasn't shown too much edge yet. If she was as good as Logos, it might not be a minor disaster or accusation.

"I won't eat any more. Please use it slowly." Prince Leiaide glanced in the direction of Rogers' bedroom and sighed slightly.

Afterwards, he stood up and thanked Luo Gesi for his hospitality, and turned around and left without giving Luo Gesi a chance to react.

"Is this what it is like..." Alice watched the prince leave, with an inexplicable light shining in her eyes.

"The marriage of nobles is a link of interests. There is nothing more than that. There are not many aristocratic couples as loving as my parents. Most of them will find lovers and mistresses in private. Among them, knights are especially sought after. Many Noble ladies and noble lords like them very much."

Rogers touched his half-full belly. He was afraid that he would become sleepy if he continued to eat, so he casually told Alice about anecdotes in the aristocratic circle.

Then he saw Alina cutting the stew with a table knife expressionlessly, and the blade scraped hard on the dinner plate, making a sharp and ear-piercing sound.

"You should praise my nobility, bravery and wisdom to Earl de Wen, and ask him to discuss the engagement with my father.

"My father is known to be cunning... and very thoughtful. Once Prince Leiaide takes the initiative to talk to him about marriage, he will definitely start to consider a lot of things again, and he will definitely not make a decision in a short period of time.

"Coupled with your father's involvement, I won't have to think about which party I will be sold to for a long time."

Logos jokingly shouted instructions to Alina, but the other party just squinted her eyes and stared at him, making him feel uncomfortable.

"How are you going to deal with the court? Do you want to think of a way on the jury?" After asking, Alina put a small piece of stew into her mouth and chewed hard.

"Why deal with the court? Faced with this kind of matter, it is best to resolve it outside the court. It is not a good thing to step into the enemy's home court." Rogers shook his head in response.

"Do you want to kill someone?" Alice asked uncertainly, looking up at the empty surroundings with some hesitation and confusion on her face.

Rogers frowned and stared at Alice. He felt that Alice was not just asking him whether he wanted to kill someone, which was not a good sign.

"You deliberately hid your strength last night because you were afraid that the despicable royal family would know about it, right?"

Alice continued to ask. Even though she didn't know much about the factions of the nobles, she still knew clearly that the royal family was a threat to Logos, and a threat to his life.

"First of all, when facing an 'innocent', you must hide your murderous intention unless you are completely sure.

"Secondly, killing is always the last resort. Even if it reaches this necessary step, it is best not to get your hands dirty. At least make sure that no one else can know about it." Rogers warned in a serious voice.

"I understand." Alice nodded seriously to express her understanding.

"What did you understand?" Luo Gesi always felt that the other party's reaction was a bit wrong.

"Be fully prepared first, and then make the other party not innocent." Alice clasped her fingers tightly into fists and looked at Rogers firmly.

"Yes, really smart." Rogers praised with approval. He didn't expect Alice's understanding to be so good, so he continued: "Cults that believe in the bottomless pit have appeared so frequently recently. There must be some reason for this. The reason for that.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Hans came to them with an attendant and said that the judge, Earl Demont, wanted to meet with the saint to learn the details of the Kevin case half a year ago.

"Just tell the truth." Rogers said softly before Alice left.

[The honest businessman of the Bottomless Pit casts a secret look at you. Kevin's consciousness is being rubbed and played with in his palms like abuse, and he is constantly screaming full of pain and despair. 】

He looked at Alice's back being gradually taken away by Hans and his attendants. A rather unexpected prompt box appeared in front of his eyes, and he slowly lowered his eyes.

"You guys had a great time chatting." Alina brushed her lips with a napkin and said in a cold voice.

But then she saw the thinking in Luo Gesi's eyes, and then continued helplessly: "You should be busy with a lot of things later, right? Do you want to take a nap?"

Luo Gesi looked at Alina who leaned back slightly and patted her legs. He hesitated and said, "Then I'm not welcome."

After saying that, he fell into the other person's lap, feeling the warm and soft touch, as well as the lingering breath of last night's wind and snow.

Alina also closed her eyes, listening to the steady breathing in her ears. Her fingertips stroked Luo Gesi's hair, and a soft smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
