Chapter 924 Do You Know Why the Empire Is Becoming More and More Feared by Other Big Countries?

People abroad do not place as much emphasis on family affection as adults in the empire, and Dou Xiangling knows it.

Especially when Ian pulled down the first heir, it was normal for the Earl and Countess to feel uncomfortable.

However, from this point, it can be seen that Ian is struggling in the Earl's Mansion.

Dou Xiangling held his hand and said, "Don't worry, I won't be sad because of their cold faces. They are just your family to me. They don't want to see you, and I don't need to like them."

Although Dou Xiangling didn't say the words like or love, but the words were full of understanding of him, Ian was happy, he pulled her into his arms, and said: "Xiangling, it's great to be in love with you."

After speaking, he took her to the palace.

The king was very kind to Dou Xiangling, and he also gave blessings to the two, especially when they left, he also said: "Your Dou family has a lot of talents, and you and Ian are a good match."

Hearing this, Dou Xiangling smiled, "Thank you King for your compliment, you are also a wise monarch, and you will definitely bring country M to a more brilliant future."

"No, no, no... I'm old, and I still need young people to bring country M into a brighter future, and Ian is one of them."

Speaking of this, the king laughed twice, and then said: "I just happen to be fine tomorrow night, I wonder if you welcome me to your banquet?"

"Of course I would."

Ian and Dou Xiangling hurriedly replied.

"Hahaha... good."

After Ian and Dou Xiangling left, a young man came out from the side: "Father, I don't understand why you said you want to attend Ian's dinner."

This kind of engagement dinner, as a king, does not need to attend.

In particular, Ian was the one who pulled down the first heir to the earl. Normally, the king would be more afraid. After all, such a person is too ambitious in country M, so he must be vigilant.

The king shook his head and disagreed with his point of view: "Justin, you are still too young. The international situation has changed now. Do you know why the empire is becoming more and more feared by other big countries?"

"Because they have higher technology, many technologies have caught up with those superpowers."

"Wrong, it's because the empire produced talents."

"Is the father talking about Lu Jingye and his wife?"

"yes."

"Lu Jingye and his wife are very powerful, but I don't think they can dominate the international situation."

The king shook his head again, with a hint of worry in his heart, "You are really too young, you have to learn from your elder brother about this."

Although the elder son is more violent and he likes the younger son more, it is true that the younger son is not as political as the elder son.

Justin was a little unhappy that the king compared himself with his eldest brother, "My eldest brother has been in politics for many years, and I only came into contact with this aspect. I must not be as good as him."

"It's not a matter of how many years. You have to put away all the prejudice and self-righteousness in your heart, and truly accept and respect talents. Ian can pull his eldest brother off the horse, and the earl can't say anything. The most important thing is that the woman Ian will marry is from the Dou family."

"Isn't the Dou family a scholarly family?" Justin suddenly fell silent when he said this. He remembered that the Dou family was not just a scholarly family, but Ziyi's natal family. Zi Yi made friends.

"Father, I know what to do."

Justin had confidence in his eyes: "I will make good contact with Ian and the others."

After Justin finished speaking, he was ready to go out to chase Ian and Dou Xiangling.

It's just that he didn't count that when he was talking to the king, the eldest prince Andre had already "coincidentally met" Ian and Dou Xiangling outside the king's bedroom.

"Ian."

The eldest prince walked towards the two with a smile on his face.

Ian told Dou Xiangling: "This is the eldest prince Andre."

Andre walked up to the two of them and said, "I didn't expect to meet you here."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Dou Xiangling and asked, "Who is this beautiful lady?"

"She is my fiancee, Dou Xiangling."

"Hi, Dou."

"Hello, Prince Andrew."

The smile in Andre's eyes deepened, and he invited: "Ian, what are you doing here, why don't you go to my palace and have a cup of coffee."

"No need, Xiangling and I still have things to do."

"That's a pity... But I heard that you are going to hold a dinner party tomorrow night. I don't know if I have the honor to attend."

"welcome."

"Haha, I guess this dinner must be prepared for your engagement. I will be there on time and offer my best wishes."

"Thanks."

The two exchanged a few words, and Ian took Dou Xiangling away.

The eldest prince stood by the side of the road and did not leave right away. Not long after, Justin came out of the king's bedroom.

When he saw the eldest prince standing there, he frowned slightly.

"Justin, it's a coincidence that I met you here. Could it be that you also went to find your father?"

"Yes, I just came out of my father's bedroom, but my father is tired and is already resting."

"It seems that I came at the wrong time. I wanted to discuss something with my father."

The eldest prince stood there talking to Justin all the time, but Justin couldn't chase him out, so he was a little anxious, so he said, "Brother, I still have something to do, so let's go first."

"Wait a minute." The eldest prince looked at him who was obviously anxious, and smiled very gently.

"Brother, is there anything else?"

"I just have something I want to ask you for help with. It's about nation building. Come with me."

"But……"

"Let's go, my father told you to participate in politics before, you don't think that participating in politics is just listening to everyone's opinions?"

Now that the eldest prince said so, Justin must not be able to say anything more, so he had to follow him.

By the time the two separated, it was already more than an hour later. Looking at Justin who was hurriedly walking outside the palace, Andre's eyes flashed sharply.

"The eldest prince." The staff said to him: "The fifth prince should go to Ian, or we will stop him on the way."

"No need." A gleam flashed in the eyes of the eldest prince, and he signaled his staff to listen to him: "The countess doesn't like Ian very much, and it's certainly impossible for her to like Miss Dou, you go..."

...

"Miss Zi, it's a pity that you don't engage in architectural design."

Ziyi and Yilanke stood in front of a building, and Yilanke expressed his fifth sigh today: "If I were to design this kind of building, I would definitely think it is an impossible task. After you mentioned something, it suddenly became clear."

Ziyi smiled and said, "I don't have time to get involved in architectural design, besides, Mr. Yilanke's professional ability is also very strong."

"No, no, I don't think my professional ability is strong here, and I don't understand many crafts at all."

Architects don't understand craftsmanship, and it makes people laugh out loud when they say it, but Elanke really doesn't understand a lot of craftsmanship and design.
