Freya waved her hand indifferently.

Everyone saw clearly that Freya really didn't care. But it was this kind of carelessness that was worse than being intimidating.

"Sissi, stop running around and learn to help Uncle Cimilian with some of the state affairs!"

Freya taught Sissi like an elder.

"Um"

Sissi nodded. She has been afraid of this woman since she was a child.

"Downton? Are you my brother?"

Of all the people present, Sissi has the highest status and the closest relationship. Freya should ask questions first, then the person with the second highest status. This is an unwritten rule at the banquet, but the eldest princess broke it.

He directly named Downton, and what he said made the whole audience exclaim.

"What brother? Does it mean that the Britannian royal family has recognized Downton's status?"

Inzaghi interjected.

"Your Highness, I don't like to be interrupted, and this is my family matter!"

Freya looked dissatisfied and spoke a warning.

Inzaghi was extremely embarrassed, but he did not dare to refute. Lombardy was an alliance empire and there were many princes like him, so it was not valuable.

"Sorry, I'm from Delankfurt, and my home is in Morning Mist Town!"

Downton's answer also made the guests look at each other. They didn't know whether he was playing hard to get or whether he really didn't care about the prince's identity. However, everyone thought it was the former. You must know that this is the eldest prince of the nine empires. Although the chance is slim, there is a chance after all.

Inherit the throne.

"You have endured so many years of hardship and have resentment in your heart. I understand." Freya signaled to Downton that there was no need to rush to explain, "As long as you recognize me as your sister, I will definitely help you restore your status."

Those present were all people who had experienced the political arena, and they immediately understood Fred's subtext, that she was recruiting Downton.

"Princess!"

The head maid who was following the princess heard this and couldn't help but give advice.

"I don't have any status. I just want to know who my mother is and how she died. If I have any enemies, I will kill her!"

Downton stared at Freya, his tone neither humble nor arrogant.

The eldest princess is silent. It is not difficult to help Downton regain his status, but if you want to trace the grudges of the previous generation, it will be troublesome. A lot of people will be implicated, and even Queen Oni may be involved.

"This is not smart behavior!"

Freya was silent for a few minutes before slowly speaking.

"Thanks!"

Downton smiled. The eldest princess's hesitation showed that she was really considering it seriously and was not playing a trick on herself.

"You really don't think about it? Once I inherit the throne, I will hand over the command staff of the emperor's commander to you, and all the tens of millions of troops will be under your command!"

Freya doesn't give up.

"Your Highness, think twice!"

The head maid persuaded her that the eldest princess had an excellent reputation, so as long as Downton won, it would be a definite promise.

"Downton, you are really lucky!"

Inzaghi's eyes were red with jealousy.

"Why are you still hesitating? Just agree!"

The Black Knight is also teasing.

As we all know, the eldest princess’s influence in the military system is extremely weak. Those sword-wielding nobles and traditional military families support Black Charlie. Therefore, if she wants to rise to power, she must have a general who is good at fighting, and with the northern third

Downton, who is known as a general, can shoulder this important task.

"I'm so sorry, I'm not interested!"

Downton refused again.

Freya's face looked ugly, and the guests were in a daze, as if they were looking at an idiot staring at Downton, giving up the opportunity to reach the sky in one step.

"Wait a minute, Downton's troops are not bad either. Don't forget, they killed the Hellbird Legion in Jutland and were able to defeat the Demonic Hornet, which is the best at attacking."

"Not only that, as long as he marries Sissi, Lombardi's future legion will be commanded by him!"

"It seems like the eldest princess's bargaining chips are completely insufficient!"

The guests murmured quietly, but after careful analysis, they found that Downton had grown from a civilian postman to a point where even a powerful princess of the empire could not ignore it.

"Downton..."

Freya only called one name before being interrupted by Downton.

"Princess, I remember that the Prime Minister of the Empire is on your side, and his name is Duke Steinway!"

Downton shrugged his shoulders.

Some people have realized that Downton killed Woodford. Although it was a fair duel, Woodford is the heir of the Steinway family and is recognized as the first person qualified to challenge Heinrich. His death has a profound impact on the family.

It is a huge loss for us, and the Prime Minister will never let it go.

"I can help you reconcile!"

Although the contact was brief, Freya admired Downton's character very much. No wonder he fascinated Sissi so much.

"Your Highness, you can't reconcile!"

Following the sound of voices, a middle-aged man walked into the living room, his hawk-like eyes staring directly at Downton.

"You were the one who killed my son?"

Duke Steinway is like an angry bull, ready to attack at any time.

"Duke, that was a duel!"

Sissi quickly persuaded her.

"Of course I know, otherwise I would have sent someone to take off his head!"

Steinway was breathing heavily. He left his official duties and ran here just to take a look at Downton.

"I'm really sorry for the result!"

Wood is a worthy opponent.

"I don't have to kill you, but you must show me what qualifications you have to kill my beloved son!"

These words were very rude, but they came from Steinway with too much charity. You must know that he is the Prime Minister of the empire who is less than one person and more than ten thousand people. With one sentence, the existence of a country can be destroyed.

A man holding a two-handed sword emerged from the void and nodded to Downton.

"It's Red Beard!"

The guests couldn't calm down anymore. This was the bodyguard used by Duke Steinway. Its attack power was off the charts. He once slaughtered the pirate fleet commanded by the pirate king Red Beard on the Endless Sea, so he got this nickname.

"Don't worry, I won't kill you!"

Steinway didn't say the last part of his sentence, which was, don't blame me for beating him half to death. He knew that it was unbecoming of a nobleman to do so, but he couldn't bear the pain of losing his son.

"Okay, I take this fight because of my respect for Wood!"

Downton took a step forward.

"Downton!"

"elder brother!"
