Mystery: Shadow of Order Chapter 74

On the King's Road, in a four-wheeled carriage, Rawls was leaning against the carriage wall, rubbing his temples with his thumbs. He finally understood why he was pulled by Earl Wolf and chatted for more than two hours.

Earl Wolfe does have some tricks, no wonder he was able to become the heir directly from his unpopular son.

In the Loen Kingdom, children of nobles who cannot inherit the title often go to a profession that is both decent and can support themselves. Barristers were the best option, and Earl Wolfe attended Middle Temple.

However, Earl Wolfe must have known that Mrs. Maynard was going to attend the ball, and she was going to find herself and stop herself.

Then why not just not invite yourself or Mrs. Maynard?

Did someone make him do this?

Earl Hall behind the New Party?

No, Earl Wolf is notoriously unfriendly to the New Party.

Just like today's ball, there were obviously members of the new party present. Although it was hosted by Countess Galya, Count Wolf, who was the host, did not show up from beginning to end.

It should be Duke Negan. Only his status and power can overwhelm Earl Wolf.

But why do you do this?

What did the New Party promise to let Duke Negan take action?

Huh, Rawls breathed a sigh of relief. After all, his status was not enough, and there was still too little effective information, so he couldn't judge what the two parties were doing at all.

However, after I attend the Carlton Club party next week, I can truly enter the circle of the Conservative Party, so I will get more information.

But Lockhard, Duke Negan's secretary, is a tricky guy, and there's no way the Twilight Hermitage has only put one nail in. Not only the Conservative Party, but there must be many people in the new party who are influenced by the Twilight Hermitage.

Amirius, an admiral, and Auston, a governor, were transferred away without making a sound. Moreover, Amelius, who was obviously Conservative, turned directly to the New Party and directly dominated the Ministry of Defense.

There are too many tricks in it.

Rawls looked at Morris, the valet sitting with the driver outside the carriage door. He had always thought that Morris was too honest and would not be suitable for a semi-political talent like a butler in the future.

However, he did not drive him away. After all, as a personal servant, Morris is qualified. Reticent and prudent, he is well aware of Backlund's popular clothing styles and knows all kinds of collocations.

But today Rawls was a little impressed with his valet. When Mrs. Maynard didn't find Rawls and went out to look for Rawls' carriage, Morris, who knew the purpose, directly said that Rawls was still there. Did not come out to the dance.

When Mrs. Maynard left, she directly asked the coachman to park the carriage in a hidden place, while Morris himself quietly observed, waiting for Rawls to come out.

Although Morris has saved a lot of trouble for Rawls, Rawls cannot reward him because he is in charge of Rawls. As a servant, making decisions for an employer is a big no-no. If the reward, it will make other servants have other thoughts.

However, it's really cool! No wonder the emperor favors traitors!

"Pallas, I didn't expect you to come today, do you want to obey Wolf and the others?"

Earl Hall smiled. Recently, many land nobles have joined forces to put pressure on Pallas Negan to restore the "Land Act", and at the worst, they have to get some compensation from the kingdom's finances.

Even if Duke Negan was the largest landed noble outside the royal family, it would be difficult for him to face the pressure of many nobles, so during this period, Duke Negan attended the banquet and dance very little and kept hiding at home.

Duke Negan was not angry either. Leaving aside the relationship between the two parties, he and Earl Hall had a pretty good relationship, even closer than some nobles who supported the Conservative Party. He didn't answer, just raised his right hand, waved it around, and spit out a word in ancient Hermes:

"isolated"

Earl Hall looked around and frowned at Duke Negan:

"Aren't you being too cautious?"

Duke Negan narrowed his gray-blue eyes and said in a low voice:

"My recent hunch is not very good. Recently, Backlund has changed a lot. Alas, it may be that the pressure has been too great recently. I haven't attended the banquet for nearly a week."

Earl Hall was still frowning, but after hearing the last sentence, he shook his head with a smile. He was very clear about the reason that Duke Negan liked to attend the banquet.

After all, the duke's mistress is considered a lot among the nobles in Backlund, but everyone just doesn't care. As long as they don't go too far, they all turn a blind eye.

"Then why are you here? I remember that you don't like **** very much."

Earl Hall shook his head and smiled helplessly:

"There's no other way. This dance was hosted by Wolf, and Nozick could not participate, so he had to let his daughter come. I'm afraid Wolf would use some other excessive means~www.mtlnovel.com~ If it is Twenty years ago, he still had the courage and wisdom to do it, but now he can do some tricks at most." Duke Negan sighed, his bloated belly shy, "Oh, after all, the life of a noble is too exhausting. energy."

Earl Hall also sighed:

"Yeah, as long as there is a generation of heirs who indulge in pleasure, it will be difficult after that."

"You are better than me. Both sons are very good. Either one can inherit the family. I can't do it. Philip is still too impatient."

"There will always be growth, he is still young."

Duke Negan recalled the conflict between Philip and Leavitt's Auston, and brought back Nozick's topic:

"Nozick's daughter may not be able to persuade the lawyer. He is very smart and wants to use this case as a springboard."

Earl Hall bowed his head slightly and thanked:

"If you can agree to this banquet, you have already given Nozick a chance." Although the new party has paid a lot, it doesn't need to face the Conservative Party, which is still powerful.

Duke Negan shook his head. He thought that Wolff would definitely play tricks, and Earl Hall was still too happy.

"How about the bank loan and shareholding?" This is the most important thing.

"I have persuaded the board of directors and some partners that they agreed to take out a loan and could give up part of their shares. If they can't come up with cash, they can also use land or valuable collections as collateral."

"That's good."

Duke Negan breathed a sigh of relief. He persuaded some conservative nobles to let them enter the banking, coal, steel and other industries to ensure that the strength of the Conservative Party would not lose too much.

"What you said about the compensation and working hours of factory workers, I will find a way to push it forward."
