Chapter 228: Chips
What she needs now is Frank on her side, on her side with Hillia, after all, Hillia is Hillia, but Bai Chengburg may not be Hillia, at least not yet.
Unfortunately, Frank still didn't let go: "It's legal at the moment."
He picked up the tea on the table and blew it, adding, "Your father has no less illegitimate children than our king. 11
Hilia was startled.
To say such a thing in front of a noble heir who is about to inherit a territory is obviously a little impolite, and even a little out of bounds.
Hillia hesitated for a moment, and said cautiously: "The silver mine in Beishan has been on hold for a long time, and the university scholar and I have discussed that we will consider proceeding with mining after the succession ceremony.14 I heard that Uncle Frank has always been interested in this, right?"
This is a chip that was determined in the morning, and now it is only put on the table a little earlier.
Frank glanced at Hillia, did not answer her question, but suddenly shook his head and said bluntly: "Celia, you are too impatient, and your behavior has already made many people unhappy."
Celia was not surprised by this, she knew from Frank's erratic words just now, she must have done something wrong, after all, this dear friend of her father had always expressed support for her before this.
And she said, "Say."
Frank said solemnly, "You should know how difficult it is to cultivate a knight, these precious resources should have been given to the people who should have obtained him, and you vetoed all the children who performed well, even the bloodline of the Norn family, just because they all had good family origins?"
Frank raised his eyebrows: "Miss Hillia, your injustice, I need an explanation."
Silia was obviously prepared for this, and asked unfazed: "Uncle Frank, do I have any better options?" As you know, my mother did not leave me a rich dowry, and I could not be a knight to gain their trust, and if it were not for no choice, no one in the nobles outside would want to see me stay in Bai Cheng Fort.
"They believed even more in William's greedy falcon, and nobles who secretly prepared to follow him to achieve his ambitions abounded, and physicians, painters, and even stonemasons who made reliefs on the walls of the city were expecting the conquerors to turn the port of Marua into a place of food for his war machine, simply because William promised them more rights."
William, referring to Count William Ram, one of the nine families of the Kingdom of Roa, the heraldic totem is an eagle with wings spread, the territory happens to be located in the west and south of the eastern sea 847 bay, in a semi-encircled shape to envelop the eastern bay, is another large noble lord bordering the eastern bay land.
Celia smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle Frank, put yourself in [who do you think I can trust now?] Who should I give my resources to to be truly loyal to me? Or do you want me to be William's puppet? So where are you standing then? His Majesty the King? Or the Falcon Emblem?"
Frank frowned.
He hesitated: "Then you don't have to give all the places to those civilians, you know, it will be easy to misunderstand, compared to hating careerists, we will fear changemakers."
