The Original Vampire

The latest website: "E... Earl of Evan..."

Earl Brugen's voice trembled, and he finally understood why Earl Avon had been hiding his whereabouts.

It turned out that he had already secretly returned to Bailu City from the north, and I am afraid that he has already reached a consensus with the Duke of St. Pros!

That's why during the meeting at Fort Bailu just now, Lord Fei Ying didn't mention the possibility of Marquis Vincent's assassination at all.

The simplicity and swiftness of the Duke of St. Pros can only mean one thing—he has confirmed the death of his eldest son, Marquis Vincent, and is determined to support his second son, Earl Evan, to become the heir to the title.

After realizing this, Earl Brugen's face paled visibly, and despair slowly appeared in his eyes.

After a long silence, he said abruptly:

"Count Evan, are you here to see our jokes?"

Earl Evan slowly shook his head and said solemnly: "No. I just want to avoid making the East Territory a joke."

Earl Brugen frowned and looked at Earl Evan with a puzzled expression, obviously not understanding what he meant.

Earl Evan Shi Shiran sat down on the seat, took a sip of the coffee in front of him, and then smiled: "Count Brugen, you are so smart, you must have guessed the truth of the matter?"

Earl Brugen nodded bitterly and said, "Marquis Vincent should have died in Silvermoon City, right?"

Earl Evan nodded and said: "Yes. My poor brother, he may not believe that he died in the hands of a crazy half-elf.

Earl Bruggen wanted to ask how Marquis Vincent died, but when he said that, he suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness that he couldn't say, and he closed his mouth again in a sullen mood.

What's the use of worrying about it now?

As soon as Marquis Vincent died, it was a certainty that Earl Avon would succeed the Duke of the East in the future, and the years of hard work of the Brugen family were completely destroyed.

Earl Evan looked at Earl Brugen, who bowed his head in silence, and took the initiative to comfort him: "Count Brugen, as I said just now, I didn't come here to see your jokes, on the contrary, I wanted to avoid the eastern border. Be a joke."

Count Bruggin took a deep breath,

Refreshing himself, he asked, "I don't quite understand what you mean."

Earl Evan no longer went around in circles, and said bluntly: "I know that many nobles in the east are actually supporters of my brother, including you, but whether you believe it or not, I have never resented you from beginning to end, much less Retaliation in the future."

Earl Brugen looked at Earl Evan with a blank expression and did not speak.

In fact, there is a reason why most of the aristocrats in the Eastern Realm support Marquis Vincent.

Marquis Vincent was ten years older than Earl Avon.

For ten years before Earl Avon was born, the Duke of St. Pros had only one heir.

Under such circumstances, the Duke of St. Pros also established Vincent as the Marquis of the Eastern Territory early, officially confirming his identity as the first heir.

At that time, almost all the aristocrats in the East Territory thought that Vincent would become the future Duke of the East Territory, so as long as they were not stupid, they would start investing in advance.

For example, Earl Hall rushed to marry his daughter to Marquis Vincent. Another example was the Brugen family. Almost all the outstanding children of the family followed Marquis Vincent.

For this situation, the Duke of St. Pros did not intervene too much, after all, he really only had such a son at the time.

In fact, even after Evan was born, the Duke of St. Pros had no idea of ​​changing his heir. Even as time passed, he found that his second son was actually smarter.

But the Duke of St. Pros also understands that there will be troubles if the elders are abandoned.

Those Eastern nobles who had already bet on Marquis Vincent would not be willing to watch Evan ascend.

Therefore, during the first Silvermoon Rebellion, Marquis Vincent led the order to ambush the Black Cavalry in the Shadow Canyon. This was obviously a chance to gain reputation, but Earl Evan was sent to Silvermoon City. To deal with a situation that is almost guaranteed to lose.

This differential treatment also reflects the attitude of the Duke of St. Pros towards his two sons.

But then the development of things is beyond everyone's expectations.

Marquis Vincent defeated the famous Black Cavalry in the Shadow Canyon and captured Marquis Garcia, the first god of war in the north. He was also defeated by the always weak half-elf and the unknown Colin Angele.

And it was a fiasco.

The Pegasus Legion was wiped out, and even Marquis Vincent himself became Colin's captive.

Such a blow shook the heart of the Duke of St. Pros.

Although the Marquis of Vincent was successfully redeemed later, the Duke of St. Pros obviously had the idea of ​​changing the heir.

The engagement of Earl Avon to the daughter of Prince Leahy is proof.

Most of the aristocrats in the east have already placed their bets on Marquis Vincent, and it is impossible for them to support the Duke of St. Pros to replace the heir. Therefore, the Duke of St. Pros had to find a strong foreign aid for his second son.

It is a pity that the world is impermanent, and the powerful foreign aid of Earl Evan has unexpectedly happened.

A group of eastern nobles breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that things would turn around again, but they never thought that the unwilling Marquis Vincent actually ran to Silvermoon City again. Put yourself in again.

This kind of twists and turns, up and down the dog blood reversal, has hit the eastern nobles including the Earl of Brugen, and they don't know how to face the current situation under their exhaustion.

Even if Earl Evan personally promised not to retaliate at this moment, how could Earl Brugen dare to believe it easily.

You must know that in order to ensure that Marquis Vincent's succession is not threatened, a group of eastern nobles, including Earl of Bruggen, spared no effort to suppress and exclude Earl Avon, forcing him to find Prince Leahy. foreign aid.

Except for the marginal families like the Fein family that were not taken seriously, almost half of the aristocratic circle in the entire Eastern Region offended Earl Evan.

Under such circumstances, the rise of Earl Evan is very likely to turn into a political disaster.

Earl Evan is naturally well aware of this, so, looking at Earl Brugen with his eyes wandering and his face constantly changing, he decisively threw a heavy "bomb":

"Count Bruggen, your daughter, Miss Grace, is dignified, virtuous, elegant and beautiful. I have long been in love with her, so I hereby formally propose to you!"

Earl Brugen's eyes widened, he couldn't believe his ears.

But Earl Avon had already stood up from his seat, bowed first, and then respectfully presented a scroll of Codex to Earl Brugen.

Count Brugen took it over and opened it, and found that it was indeed a marriage certificate, and it had the autograph of the Duke of St. Pros on it.

"Then... Miss Salia, daughter of Prince Lehi..."

"In view of Prince Lexi's indignation in Dragon City, my father will publicly announce the cancellation of my engagement with Miss Salia!"

Earl Brugen looked at Earl Evan fixedly, obviously caught off guard by such a change.

Earl Evan also stared into Earl Brugen's eyes and said seriously: "Count Brugen, I have shown my sincerity, now, it's your turn."

Count Brugen's expression finally changed.

He tightly grasped the parchment roll in his hand, took a deep breath, and said solemnly:

"Okay! Since you value your little girl so much, Earl Evan, of course I will not object to this marriage."

Earl Evan smiled and said, "Father-in-law, I have a shallow foundation in the Eastern Territory, and you will have to worry about it in the future!"

"Please rest assured, I will help you to appease the nobles one by one, and let them understand that the era of Marquis Vincent has passed, and you are the future of the Eastern Territory!" Speaking of this, Earl Brugen suddenly frowned, Said, "However, there is one person who is afraid..."

"You mean Earl Hall, right?" Earl Evan said immediately.

"That's right. After all, his daughter is married to Vincent..."

Earl Evan smiled confidently and said lightly:

"Don't worry about this, I already have arrangements for the Hall family."
