"Cage, why did you choose a place so far from Atlantis City? Don't you know that Harris needs your help now?" Jenna was furious sitting on the throne of the princess. Cage's choice had a great impact on her. Cage, who had military merits, could give her a higher status among the princesses. Now she was in her thirties. Although she was still beautiful, Reis XII's favor for her was not as good as before. It was not easy to see that Cage had strong strength, so Reis XII had to continue to favor her, but Cage's retreat pushed her down from a high point again. She originally planned to use Cage's power to let Harris expand his power, but this plan was stillborn before it started. This depression was enough to drive her crazy.
Cage looked at the exasperated Jenna, without any sadness or joy in his heart. The relationship between mother and son was so weak. Cage sighed slightly, "Mother, don't you understand what father means? If I don't choose, I'm afraid that I will be the first one to be dealt with in the next moment. Harris will not only be unable to make further progress, but will completely lose hope because of me."
Cage's words startled Jenna, "Tell me what's going on?" Jenna suppressed the anger in her chest.
"This is an exchange, a necessary exchange." Cage paused and continued, "If Harris uses my power to expand his power, it will only attract the union of other forces. At that time, he will be outnumbered and Harris will suffer. Doesn't mother know?"
Jenna understood that if Cage stayed in the east, his power would be too strong. With the influence of the military, other forces could only unite to resist them. In the circle of the imperial capital, they are definitely not opponents of other forces with weak political strength, and they may not be able to get a good result in the end.
Cage looked at Jenna's thinking, not knowing whether she really understood or pretended to understand. Now that he is powerful, the first to deal with him is the king. I don't know if Jenna understands that it is most important to grasp the king's mind, and the king's thoughts can never be ignored at any time.
"Can't you move to a better place?" After Jenna figured out some tricks, her face looked much better.
"How many families in the empire who have obtained good fiefs in the past few hundred years have had a good ending." Cage replied with a wry smile.
Jenna looked at Cage carefully. Is this really her child? He is much clearer than her. Yes, there is no noble who has obtained a large number of fiefs who has not been suppressed by the royal family. Independent fiefs have affected the stability of the empire. The king will never allow an unmanageable kingdom to appear in his territory. "What are your plans?" Jenna finally understood how helpless this son she didn't care about was. Now she couldn't be angry with Cage, but more of a pity.
"Pack up and go to Atlantis as soon as possible." Cage nodded slightly.
"Before you leave, introduce Harris to those people in the military." Jenna ordered.
"Don't do that. It will alert other forces." Cage didn't want to take on this trouble. "Harris is my brother. It's a well-known fact. If he goes to see the military or my subordinates, they will give him some face."
Jenna thought about it and it made sense. Since his power couldn't be borrowed directly, it was okay to call it up! After figuring it out, Jenna had a new plan in mind.
"Seventh brother, I finally see you." A girl in a magician's robe came in hopping.
"Millie, don't you see me now?" Cage said with a smile. He still liked this simple sister. Millie has grown up now, and her beauty is prominent. As a magician, she is also quite influential in the entire royal family. For the royal family, the role of magicians is always greater than that of warriors. A magician can even resist a legion.
"Meet mother." Millie saluted Jenna.
"Why don't you meditate in your room? Why do you come to me?" Jenna looked at Millie with a kind look. Only when she faced Millie could she feel like a mother.
"I heard that the hero came back, so I came to see him!" Millie covered her mouth, very cute, "I'm tired of meditating all day. I want to listen to Brother Cage's war stories!" Millie said coquettishly.
"You." Jenna looked angry, and she didn't know whether to laugh or cry at her daughter.
"Mother, I want to go back home with my brother and listen to his war stories." Millie said coquettishly to Jenna, "Brother, please!" At the same time, she held one of Cage's arms and shook it continuously.
"As long as mother agrees, I have no objection." Cage can't stand girls who act like a spoiled child. He couldn't resist such girls in his previous life, and he is not much better in this life.
"You go!" Jenna seemed to have no way to deal with Millie.
"Brother, go quickly." Millie happily took Cage's hand and walked out the door.
"Mother, I'll take my leave." After Cage saluted Jenna, he went out of the palace with Millie. Millie probably didn't go out of the palace very often, and now she seemed particularly happy, jumping around like she was out of a cage.
"I want to have a big meal today. Brother, you have to take me to your barbecue restaurant today and have a good meal. The dishes in the palace are always the same, so boring." Millie acted like a spoiled child to Cage, and Cage could only raise his hands in surrender.
Cage didn't take Millie to the barbecue restaurant. There is now a special chef in Cage's house, with all kinds of utensils, and you only need to prepare and you can barbecue at home.
Millie happily ate the barbecue while looking at Cage, "Brother, I have many good sisters who admire you."
"Oh." Cage felt quite strange about this news. He had been a virgin for more than 40 years since his previous life, and he had not lost his virginity yet. In fact, he also wanted to find a girl, but he was not interested in the maids around him. Even if he was interested, the nobles would not marry their daughters to him. He was not strong enough before, and now he has no future in a remote fiefdom. It seems that the day of losing his virginity is far away.
"They say you are the most charming man in the imperial capital."
Millie's words made Cage very happy. No one had ever praised him like this. "Why do you say that?"
"They summarized a few points. First, he is extraordinary and can be invincible; second, he has a rich life and understands the fun of life; third, he is handsome enough; fourth, he is rich enough." Millie said very seriously.
"Haha." He was quite happy to hear his sister praise him for being charming. In the previous life, the evaluation of excellent men was "Pan Donkey Deng Xiaoxian", with a look like Pan An, a "regular product" as big as a donkey whip, as rich as Deng Tong, as patient as a small needle hidden in cotton, and with a lot of free time. Cage didn't expect that he would be evaluated like this one day. He was quite satisfied with his appearance. He hadn't tried that thing yet, so he didn't know if it was good or not. He also had money, a good personality, and a lot of free time.
"They said that as long as you come to propose marriage, they will definitely choose to marry you. If the family didn't allow it, they would have come to chase you long ago." Millie's mouth was full of oil, and she didn't care about her identity as a princess at all.
Cage only then knew that the other princes now had wives, but he had no one to arrange for him. It turned out that no one was willing to marry their daughters to him. Depressed, really quite depressed, do I have to continue to be a virgin? If it doesn't work, just find a few virgins to play with in the future. Who knows what will happen next? Just like Xiao Shenyang said, "One day will pass by when you close your eyes and open them again, and a lifetime will pass by when you close your eyes and don't open them again." Who knows if God will strike him down again with a thunder, and who knows where he will be in the next life.
"But don't worry, brother. The princess you find in the future will definitely be very good." Millie said firmly, as if she was very sure that Cage would find an excellent wife.
Cage shook his head, smiled at Millie's serious look, and continued to focus on the grill.
"Brother, you are such an excellent person, ordinary girls are not worthy of you, only those excellent girls can be worthy of you."
"Is your brother really excellent?" Cage smiled at Millie's serious look.
"Of course, there is no one better than you, brother. Look, even Princess Reina from the neighboring country is no match for you. What's more, you have invented so many interesting things and you are so handsome. There is no one better than you in the entire empire. I will definitely find the best girl to be my sister-in-law." Millie's serious and earnest expression warmed Cage's heart.
