Chapter 1557: Misfortune

"Yes, yes, this is the first time for us to come to Mara!" Jiang Fei said very cooperatively.

"That's no wonder, the man riding the horse just now is the famous Prime Minister Aldo!" The peddler said with an exaggerated expression.

"What? Is this prime minister very capable?" Jiang Fei asked curiously.

"You are right or wrong to say that, mainly because his parents are capable!" said the peddler.

"Oh?! Did he come from a noble family?" Bella interrupted suddenly.

"Hey! Girl, you guessed wrong!" Seeing a girl talking, the peddler became more enthusiastic, and he suddenly showed a mean expression and said: "Aldo's parents are not nobles, his father It’s a shoe repairer, and his mother is a maid who works in other people’s homes.”

"Huh? Since his parents are poor, how can he be prime minister because of his parents' abilities?" Ariel was also attracted by the peddler's story.

"Haha, you don't know this, it seems that you are really from the countryside!" Seeing the girls all looking at him, the hawker's sense of superiority almost exploded, and then he showed off with a proud face: "Isn't it Austrian?" Aldo's parents are capable, and they gave him four beautiful younger sisters, and after dedicating the four younger sisters to His Majesty the Emperor, the Aldo family will naturally be prosperous and rich!"

"Uh..." Jiang Fei was speechless for a moment, he never thought that this powerful Prime Minister would get such an official position.

"Does Master Aldo have any hobbies?" Jiang Fei asked casually.

"Hehe, you rural rich men want to buy an official from Aldo?" The peddler thought he had seen through Jiang Fei's purpose, but he didn't hide it, but continued: "There are many rich rural men like you. But you are very lucky, this guy Aldo is very greedy for money, many people have bought good positions from him, but this guy has become more greedy recently, so the asking price may be higher!"

"Yeah!" Jiang Fei nodded, and then he heard a lot of information from the peddler, but 90% of them were spam. The peddler was very talkative, but he was a bit tongue-in-cheek in front of the girls. , talking in a cloud of mist, a little vague.

However, Jiang Fei also screened out a lot of valuable information from this information.

First of all, the imperial prime minister named Aldo has a very high status and is deeply trusted by the emperor. Since the four younger sisters are very favored, he has the right to freely enter and leave the palace.

However, as a relative, Aldo also has a common problem that all relatives have, that is, greed for money, because these relatives are very clear about how they got their status.

They were able to ascend to the throne because they were favored by the emperor by their own women, but the problem is that the emperor has more than one woman. A woman who can pamper her own family today may favor another woman tomorrow. Once a woman from her family falls out of favor, then The status of these relatives will soon be lost, and other relatives will replace them.

Therefore, during his reign, he tried his best to benefit himself and his family. This has become a common problem after his relatives came to power, and Aldo is no exception. Aldo has really made a lot of money by selling officials and nobles over the years. , but recently he felt a crisis.

A group of guys with unknown origins offered a few beauties. These beauties are not as good-looking as Aldo’s sister, but I don’t know if the old emperor is looking fresh or what, so I linger in those women’s rooms every day, and I haven’t gone to see Aldo for a long time. Many sisters.

Aldo entered the palace today to discuss countermeasures with his sisters, because if Aldo's four younger sisters fell out of favor, his status would also be lost.

"Those beauties with unknown origins must be 'players'!" After listening to the hawker's rambunctious words, Jiang Fei also had some concepts in his mind.

"I think that Aldo can be used by us!" Nina said from the side, at this time Jiang Fei and the others had left the vendor and came to a secluded place.

Although I inquired a lot of information from the hawker, Jiang Fei and the others didn't buy anything when they left. It's not that the girls didn't like those silver ornaments, but none of them had the currency of this planet on them. To put it bluntly Just no money!

"En! Indeed, we can use Aldo to disrupt the actions of 'players'." Jiang Fei also nodded. Although he has no perfect plan yet, this Aldo is definitely the best partner .

The reason why Jiang Fei judged this way is because the two parties have common interests. Aldo's purpose is to make those women of unknown origin fall out of favor so as to preserve their family status, while Jiang Fei and the others are to destroy the actions of "players", which also requires Let the emperor no longer favor those "female players", so the purpose of both parties is the same.

With a consistent goal, there is a basis for cooperation, but as for the specific plan, Jiang Fei still needs to meet Aldo before making a decision.

It is difficult to meet the emperor, but it is much easier to meet Aldo. Everyone knows the official residence of the Prime Minister in Mara City, so Jiang Fei and the others found Aldo's residence after casually inquiring.

"It's really a rich family's wine and meat stinky road with frozen bones!" Looking at the manor in front of him, Jiang Fei couldn't help but sigh.

Aldo's manor is very luxurious. Although it is not as large as the emperor's castle, it is more refined. Considering that Aldo was born as a commoner before, and his family is not rich, don't ask, the money is all from him. years of search.

But Jiang Fei doesn't care whether this Aldo is a corrupt or honest official. His purpose of coming here is to stop the "players", not to be the savior of Norton planet.

After finding Aldo's residence, Jiang Fei sat down in a tavern opposite Aldo Manor, because he didn't know when Aldo, who was going to the palace, would return, so Jiang Fei and the others planned to rest in this tavern. By the way, ask for some information.

There are fish and dragons in the tavern, and there are everyone. Even if you don't deliberately ask, you can hear a lot of useful news.

"Have you heard?"

"What's up?"

"Something happened to the million slaves that the emperor gave Lord Harun!"

"Oh?! What's going on?"

"Hi! It rained heavily in the south, causing the road to be washed away, and the slaves were blocked halfway. It is estimated that they will not be able to reach Mara in three days."

"Then they are out of luck. Slaves will be punished if they fail to expire!"

"Hey! What do you care about them? They're just a bunch of filthy slaves. It's better to die. Otherwise, a million people will flood into Mara, and just eating and drinking will mess up the imperial capital!"
