Louis was stunned.
He looked at his father and then asked, "Father, you mean…?"
Prime Minister Lat nodded. "Right now, the nobles are busy changing sides or remain neutral for the time being."
No matter whether it was Prince Edward or the second prince who became the king, there would be nobles who won and also nobles who lost. It was simply a competition to see who will lose more and who will lose less.
They have to take the bet and chose one side.
Or they would remain neutral and didn't get any benefit but would not suffer any loss either.
It was up to them.
No one but themselves could decide on this matter.
"His majesty didn't set anyone to be the crown prince," Prime Minister Lat said and then sighed. "It was unknown whether he still favor Prince Edward or he would turn his head to the second prince."
Louis nodded with a frown.
