162 People? Are they all dead?

Facing the Princess who suddenly popped out and killed the "game" with one sentence, everyone in the entire Laien Manor was stunned.

From the freckled Prince who was knocked to the ground, to the middle-aged noblewoman who almost fainted on the spot behind the Princess, everyone who witnessed this scene could only make one expression: uncontrollably widen their eyes, and then instinctively open their mouths...

"Ah???????"

【In the presence of Prince Watching Watching Qiaoshuya and half of the Kingdom's nobles, the First Princess Veronica personally accepted your proposal. You obtained the Gold-level identity badge "Travel Thrush Prince"】

【Travel Thrush Prince: Prince of the Travel Thrush Kingdom, husband of the First Princess Veronica. Although you do not have the qualification to inherit the throne, your words and actions can already represent the will of the Royal Family to a certain extent】

【Wearing effect: As a Prince with a noble status, within the territory of the Travel Thrush Kingdom, you can require anyone with a status lower than yours to take the initiative to salute you】

【Advancement route: If the marriage relationship with Princess Veronica is maintained for a long time, and you are still not divorced after she inherits the throne, this badge will automatically advance to the different-colored badge "The Man Behind the Queen (Rice White)"】

【Hidden characteristic (no need to wear): Because this is a purely political marriage, Princess Veronica only has quite a good impression of you, and there is a lack of a sufficiently deep emotional foundation between each other, so she will not interfere too much with your private life】

"..."

It's actually a Princess?

After closing the newly popped-up badge, looking at the plump beauty walking toward him with big strides from outside the door, Li Ang couldn't help but open his mouth, not knowing what to say for a while.

The investigator from the Cleaning Bureau just left yesterday, and the suspicion of the Laien blood night on him hasn't been washed away yet. At this time, it is reasonable to be cautious and throw away the Lionheart Duke's identity as soon as possible.

But... this is a Gold badge! And it has a clear advancement route, probably reaching a different color. This... how can this make people refuse?

"Sorry, this visit was a bit sudden, disturbing everyone."

While Li Ang on the stage was still worrying about gains and losses, hesitating whether to advance or retreat, the Princess who had picked up a big bargain had already passed through the crowd and walked quickly to the main stage.

After nodding to the nobles who were stunned because of her sudden appearance, Princess Veronica lightly picked up the hem of her plain dress, knelt down and bowed a graceful and solemn lady's salute.

Then she straightened her neck like a swan again, turned around gracefully, stretched out her white lotus arm covered with thin gauze toward Li Ang, whose expression was complicated, stared into his eyes with a slightly red face, and directly conveyed a kind of determination like breaking the boat through her eyes.

Originally just wanting to watch the fun, didn't expect such a big pie waiting for herself. The man in front of her who was several years younger than herself is the last piece of the puzzle to save the Kingdom!

If she can take over the political legacy of the Lionheart family with the help of the marriage with him, it would be worth it even if she completely offends the old noble class today and even attracts the crazy assassination of the rebels!

"No! I don't agree!"

Seeing that the man on the stage hesitated for a moment, then actually held the arm extended by his sister, the Prince with freckles couldn't help but tremble all over, a look of deep fear appeared in his eyes, then immediately raised his objection loudly!

As the King's child, political literacy is naturally the most important compulsory course. Although Watching Watching Qiaoshuya is arrogant and irritable, he is not a complete fool. After experiencing the initial shock, he immediately reacted to the meaning of this "hand-holding."

If that damn Lionheart Duke really succeeds in proposing to Veronica at the cost of the entire Laien family, it is equivalent to nearly half of the Kingdom falling into his sister's hands. Then his status and hers will instantly reverse, and he will become the one completely abandoned by his father!

If Veronica is ruthless, let alone inheriting the throne, he might be thrown to the other side of the ocean to feed monkeys!

No! No matter what today,

absolutely cannot let her succeed! Absolutely not!

"Veronica!"

After two loud shouts gathered everyone's attention, regardless of the slap mark that was still aching on his face, the freckled Prince scolded sharply:

"Father has already set the range of Prince Consort for you in advance, and you must choose from those few people! You are now agreeing to the Lionheart Duke's proposal, which is equivalent to defying Father's order!"

"Is that so?"

Looking at the freckled Prince who suddenly jumped out to make trouble, Veronica curled her lips, continuing to maintain the posture of extending her arm to Li Ang, and answered unhurriedly:

"No way, Lionheart Duke is heroic, kind, young, and handsome, especially the appearance when slapping others, which makes me fall in love at first sight. Since love came so suddenly, I have to let down Father's painstaking efforts.

Besides, as his most beloved daughter, in my own lifelong event, I am a little bit willful, I think he will not blame me, and will even feel happy for my happiness... don't you think so, Watching Watching Qiaoshuya?"

Hearing his sister's response with words in words, the freckled Prince's face turned black.

Damn it! That old thing will indeed be happy, but not because of any dogshit happiness of yours, but because the leader of the old nobles suddenly had a mental illness and actually took the Ministry of Road and the military to lean toward the Royal Family!

Trouble, it seems she has made up her mind, no matter what, she must seize the opportunity to swallow the Laien family's legacy in one bite. This road is afraid it won't work!

"Where are the people of the Laien family?"

Seeing that his sister was determined to marry the Lionheart Duke, even if he moved out Father, he couldn't suppress her, and that Lionheart Duke was bold and reckless, and it was impossible to fear his threat. The unwilling Watching Watching Qiaoshuya immediately changed his target, starting to look for the actual controller of the Laien family, hoping to be able to put pressure on a certain damn Duke through them.

Coldly looking around at the group of little golden hairs, the freckled Prince simply didn't pretend anymore, while trying hard to find someone who could make the decision, he questioned loudly with fierce eyes:

"Are there no people in your Laien family? Just watching this wild seed Duke make trouble? Are you willing to let him hand over the entire Laien family?"

However, even if he had torn his face, no one from the Laien family stood up. What responded to him was only silence, and the whispers and whispers of the guests.

"Speak!"

Seeing that at this time, the Laien family still didn't come out, the freckled Prince, who was anxious, couldn't help but get angry, frowning and shouting:

"Do you really just watch? Are the Laien family all dead? Not even one person dares to stand up and stop him from making trouble?"

"..."

"Stop looking, the Laien family is indeed gone."

Looking at this little wolf who was frantically baring his teeth and trying to find someone to suppress himself, Li Ang on the stage was silent for a while, then couldn't help but remind with a strange expression:

"The former Duke's butler had a heart attack and is being rescued in the carriage outside; the only remaining clan elder is relatively old, and just now when I slapped you, he couldn't stand the stimulation and fainted directly;

As for the newly appointed family head, when your sister agreed to my proposal, I seemed to see him clutching his heart and lying down too... Look, the one lying at the door should be him."

"..."
