Chapter 2500 Secret

As the eldest son of the goblin royal family, Master Dewey has been blessed with an aura like other eldest sons of the royal family since his birth.

At that time, Master Dewey was not called Dewey yet, but had a more high-end name, which made him feel superior.

But unfortunately, the name was too long and difficult to pronounce, so I couldn’t remember it after hearing it only once, so I will continue to use the title of ‘Master Dewey’ to replace him here.

In the tradition of the goblins, the eldest son of the emperor is the future heir to the throne, while the second son of the emperor, the current goblin king, can only enter the court as a prince at most.

Since ancient times, the Tian family has been ruthless, and most of the royal family members are not in harmony. On the surface, they often appear to be brothers and sisters, but secretly they want to stab a hole in each other's stomach with a forty-meter-long machete.

But there are exceptions to everything, and this is the case for the goblins.

As the second son of the emperor, the Goblin King not only had no intention of framing his brother, he was even a real brother-controller.

How far has my brother controlled me?

for example.

When he was a child, Master Dewey took his younger brother out to play one day. On the road, they encountered a bunch of thumb-sized balls, which were black and smelled of grass.

Master Dewey is such a curious child. Once he becomes curious, he will either pick it up with his hands and study it carefully, or put the thing in his mouth to taste it.

Obviously, Master Dewey belongs to the latter.

He picked up a round ball curiously, observed it carefully for a few seconds, then threw it away, put the ball into his mouth, and started chewing.

As he chewed it, his expression changed and became ugly, because he found that this stuff tasted appallingly unpleasant.

Immediately, he warned his brother not to touch the black spherical object.

The Goblin King was very obedient and did not touch the thing in front of Master Dewey, but this matter became a knot in his heart. After all, he did not eat the thing that his most beloved and respected brother had eaten. However, this is simply an insurmountable psychological barrier.

So, taking advantage of the dark and windy night, the Goblin King dragged the Dwarf King, who was still the Crown Prince, all the way over the wall and across the ridge, hiding in nooks and crannies to avoid detection, and hiding in empty pickle jars to avoid patrols. adventurer.

After experiencing a series of 'hardships', they ran to the ground as they wished and came to the pile of black and spherical objects.

The dwarf king, who usually followed his elders around to hone his skills, recognized this thing immediately when he saw it, frowned and said: "Isn't this deer dung!"

After hearing this, the Goblin King trembled and took a few steps back in fright.

But his burning brother-control soul kept urging him to become like Master Dewey.

In order to become the elder brother he admired most, he resolutely picked up one and threw it into his mouth after knowing that it was deer dung.

Afterwards, he vomited profusely, became seriously ill, and almost lost his life.

Some people may say, what does this matter have to do with Master Dewey’s sad past? Dingtian is just a rather disgusting childlike experience.

In fact, when I heard Master Dewey talk about this, I also expressed the same emotion, but Master Dewey ignored me, maybe because he was drunk, or maybe he was in the middle of the conversation and didn't pay attention to my question.

Anyway, he ignored me and continued talking to himself.

Just when I was confused, Master Dewey suddenly changed the subject and returned to the topic.

"In this world, the most tiring thing is intrigue, and the most intrigue is in the core court. The most intrigue in the core court is the struggle and division of core power."

"With the pressure of a powerful monarch, the royal courtiers do not dare to make mistakes, but once the monarch becomes a little older, these courtiers will immediately make plans for their future."

Master Dewey sighed deeply and continued: "My father only has two sons, and my brother and I are only one year apart. But just because of this mere one-year difference, the courtiers and nobles were divided into two factions. One faction supported me, and the other faction Station brother."

"The intrigues between the two factions continued. At first, it was just political differences, but soon it became a struggle between the two factions. As the struggle intensified, whether it was the emperor, powerful ministers, or the city lords and officials of various towns, It has even affected the Adventurer’s Guild and many private organizations.”

"Anything, if it is only done on an official level, there may be some leeway. But once it involves personal matters, the bottom line is very likely to be lost."

Picking up the glass and drinking it all, Master Dewey breathed out the smell of wine and said drunkenly: "In order to stabilize the status of their respective masters, many people do not hesitate to kidnap, intimidate, and assassinate. Most of them are carried out by private organizations, but behind their backs, But I saw the shadow of the emperor’s noble ministers.”

"The tragedy that occurred due to the struggle for imperial power has made me heartbroken. But at this time, my most trusted personal guard actually launched a careful assassination plan against my brother without telling me."

"Fortunately, I got the news in time, prevented the assassination, and prevented the news from spreading too far, thus preserving the majesty of the royal family. However, this incident also caused considerable repercussions within the royal family."

"In the end, I failed to keep my loyal bodyguard, so I could only endure the pain and execute him with my own hands. Fortunately, my father did not anger his family, so I had the opportunity to compensate for the guilt in my heart, but there was another pain. It’s always bothered me.”

He raised his head, with red eyes, and said sadly: "Another close friend of my brother and I, the eldest son of a nobleman who witnessed the entire assassination process, was implicated and exiled. And this is just the beginning, because he Because of his relationship, his parents were also ostracized by the family. They were demoted from an extremely wealthy noble to a worthless little noble. Not only his parents and the family were affected, but also a group of dwarves were affected. The young daughter of a great nobleman - this great nobleman happened to be married to that close friend, and at the same time, this girl also had a deep love for her close friend."

Master Dewey wiped the tears from his eyes: "Since then, I have never seen that close friend again, let alone how he and his wife are doing."

At this point, he sighed deeply, showing an extremely sad expression, and continued: "Later, because of guilt, I gave up the throne, left home, started as a scientist, and then re-emerged as a businessman, establishing a Today's business empire, at the same time, when my brother was enthroned at the ceremony, he issued the only unchangeable ironclad order, that is, "Master Dewey and I jointly take charge of all affairs of Fort Vicky. There is no doubt about this matter. Anyone who violates the order will be charged with treason." Discuss.'"

"With the help of this iron order, I gained the highest authority and had the privilege to enter the forbidden area to read the secrets. It wasn't until I read the follow-up treatment of the assassination that I learned that in order to prevent my close friends from leaking the secrets, the goblin clan's senior officials had secretly fed His wife is suffering from persistent attacks of poison, and she said that as long as An An is a tight-lipped ordinary person, she will give him the antidote on time, but this antidote can only relieve it, not cure it!"
