Chapter 392 Gradually Tense Situation

"His Royal Highness Kaphne seems to be leaving, is it alright?"

It was Eugene Geraint who spoke.

He came over early in the morning and asked Annan worriedly, "Did you let her come?"

"no."

Annan answered clearly.

- But it doesn't matter, she can come anytime she wants.

This is Annan's answer.

Rather, when he realized that the situation was becoming increasingly tense, Annan no longer regarded "Rosberg" as a safe place.

Especially if the old bread has already left.

If someone really wanted to be detrimental to Kaphne, he would be out of control.

In this situation, it would be more secure to have Kaphne by her side and be protected by Zhi Ji together.

"That's how you see it..."

Eugene nodded thoughtfully.

After going through numerous reviews conducted by Zhi Ji in private, she was finally able to judge that this person was generally harmless to Annan, and was the kind of friend who could be made and would be beneficial to Annan's future.

Only then did she finally let in Eugene, who came to visit every day—

Although Annan was very grateful for Zhi Ji's unusually careful attention, she couldn't help but feel a little funny because of her nervousness.

This also makes Annan feel the kind of nostalgia and warmth that parents and relatives pay attention to in the environment of making friends at school...

And after Annan and Eugene chatted for a long time about the political situation in the capital, he made up his mind to move back to Geraint's house from a high-end hotel.

On the one hand, it is to build a good relationship with the Geraint family, on the other hand, to obtain important information as quickly as possible, and on the other hand, it is also for his own safety...

In addition, part of the reason was that Annan didn't want Zhi Ji to spend any more money.

... The consumption of the King Noah Hotel is too expensive.

In the case of Paper Ji and Annan living in the same room,

The cost of their daily accommodation alone - not even the food and the money she bought for Annan, was one hundred and thirty pounds.

This is roughly equivalent to fifteen hundred silver coins a night.

Annan felt a little extravagant when he looked at it.

Although it's not your own money, the elders' money can't be spent indiscriminately...

Might as well live at the Geraint's.

At least if nothing else, managing food and security is much stronger than King Noah Hotel.

——You must know that the backyard of Geraint's house is directly connected to the backyard of the palace.

The security force of Geraint's house is the king's guard.

It was still a mix of the Royal Guard and the Secret Army, not a protective circle that one side could get in. Coupled with the several monitoring circles set up by the one-eyed crow, it is difficult for even the superhuman of the golden rank to sneak in.

From Annan's point of view, moving to the Geraint family was a good choice in every way.

But seeing that Annan was tricked into the house by Eugene in just one day, Zhi Ji immediately followed him with a worried look.

While this gave Annan a sense of security, it always felt a little subtle.

It's like when I went to stay at my classmate's house, my aunt or elder sister didn't feel relieved and came over directly...

Fortunately, Your Excellency Eugene's diplomatic power is still very stable.

The kindness that comes from the heart, the kindness to others, and the attitude of listening carefully and treating others' words seriously is enough to gain Zhi Ji's recognition of him as a person.

Paper Ji only asked that she must be present when Eugene and Annan talked - she said that there was no special situation and would not disturb the conversation between the two.

Eugene also knew very well that Zhi Ji was worried that Annan had been deceived by herself...

...but how is that possible.

If Master Zhiji really cares, it will be messed up.

Eugene sighed secretly.

He knew very well that His Highness Annan was not that kind of innocent child. When he was chatting with Annan, the pressure was even greater than that of chatting with those earls and marquis - he always felt that he might have been given information by Annan unconsciously.

Of course, this is also because of the difference in identity between them.

Annan, as the upcoming Archduke of Winter, a future deity—maybe even a false deity of a righteous deity. The identity gap between them is really too big.

This makes Eugene Geraint, the future heir of the Raven family, must always maintain the social distance between himself and Annan, only dare to stay in the position of "friend", dare not be rude for a moment, and dare not move forward cents.

After all, what he wants to take care of and please is not only "Annan".

The power in the hands of the Geraint family must be the power of the future His Majesty.

If his relationship with Annan is too close, the king will be more afraid of the Geraint family.

As the head of the highest intelligence agency, you have such a good relationship with the supreme ruler of the neighboring country... Can I suspect that something is wrong with you?

If they were normal nobles, it would be a good thing for them to be so feared by the king.

Because it means that the king will not easily trust their words, but will not easily ignore their words - which makes them naturally have a high status in the social circle of the nobles, and even become the center of social interaction. For example, "Circle of Geraint family circle" or something like that.

But the position of the Geraint family did not allow them to get close to the nobles.

An intelligence agency that does not obey the king, is not trusted by the king, but is unclear with the nobles, has no value in existence.

And at that time, the "loyalty to the royal family" that the Geraint family had previously backstabbed many nobles would turn into a handle for them to spit out the benefits.

In the same way, whether it is for Kaphne or the other princes.

Eugene also just kept polite and kept his distance.

——This is the way of survival for the crow clan.

A crow can only stand on a crown.

As for his eldest brother Ferdinand Geraint's aides... when the heir had not yet been chosen, he decisively chose one of them to serve and tried to increase the possibility of his being chosen. In fact, it was very popular with the king. taboo.

Therefore, Ferdinand was completely unaware that the more he helped His Royal Highness Philip, the less His Majesty would choose His Highness Philip...

To Eugene's surprise, however, Philip didn't realize it either.

Unlike his eldest brother who just looked very stable.

Although Philip chewed toffee every day and looked like he was smiling, he would often go out to play with his friends and subordinates. He seemed to be just a very stylish and interesting player. Don't care about anything.

But Eugene had a lot of secret information on hand.

He could easily see that Philip was a rather intelligent man.

He is actually much smarter than the eldest princess. You can see it just by looking at the fact that he does not leave any traces—this does not mean that others cannot perceive that he did it, but that even if others perceive the existence of Philip behind him, they cannot. A clear realization of what he really wants and what he wants to achieve through this matter.

Eugene even suspected that his eldest brother himself might be Philip's pawn.

And, speaking of Philip...

He had to mention to Annan that Philip had recently acquired a new capable officer.

Eugene asked Annan who was in deep thought again: "Is that person named Delicious Wind Goose the one you sent?"

Because the other party's acting skills are so good, even Eugene can't be sure. Did the delicious wind goose really betray Annan, or was he a spy sent by Annan...

Annan only smiled when he heard the words.

Do not answer.
