Forced to become a delicate companion of a paranoid lord
Chapter 89 Isn't it a trophy?
Xie Wei didn't know what kind of island Hutt Island was. The reason why he asked Sal to continue listening to Brett was because he roughly knew what Brett's purpose was.
If his guess was correct, the Emperor of Hesedon should want to use this island to exchange for something in the Far North Territory.
What the Far North Territory lacks the least is various magic crystals, magic beast crystal cores, animal skins and bones, rare materials and magic plants.
These things are extremely important military supplies for an empire that has been fighting wars all year round.
In fact, the empire also has crystal mines, but relatively speaking, it is more cost-effective to exchange crystals from the Paraso people. If it were not for the cheap magic crystals provided by the Paraso people, Xie Wei felt that the Heisedon Empire might not be able to maintain its superficial prosperity like it does now.
As for whether Hutt Island is an island with countless mineral resources, Xie Wei does not believe Brett. If it can be used for exchange, it means that the island has no value anymore.
And why was this island "given" by Grand Duke Hudson to his "beloved" "grandson", while Sal needed to pay "taxes"?
Then we must first listen to what Earl Brett says.
In fact, Xie Wei could probably guess something. The emperor of the empire might have tasted the sweetness of the previous compensation and wanted to trade some useless things with Sal.
It just so happened that Hudson had such a useless island in his hands. As the emperor's most trusted grand duke, how could he not help the emperor solve his problems?
By giving such an island to the emperor to exchange with the Far North Territory, the emperor can get the materials he wants, and Hudson will definitely not give the emperor an island for free in exchange for resources.
Brett saw that the Lord of the Snowfield was interested in his words, and quickly continued: "Lord Pucas, you should also know Hutt Island. Hutt Island is very close to your territory. Xiyavi really likes this island. I think you will not be stingy with that insignificant tax..."
"I do know that island, but it's not convenient to get there from the Far North Territory. After all, with Shiyavi's physical condition, he can't climb the Laidona Peak. If we take Shiyavi to Hutt Island, we need to pass through the imperial territory. The journey is long and troublesome."
Sal interrupted Brett's chatter. He had heard of Hutt Island, which was located southeast of the Far North Territory.
The island does have rich mineral resources. The empire has never made the island public, but a steady supply of gold, iron ore, etc. are often transported out of the island. After the island was divided to the Rodrigo family more than ten years ago, the Rodrigo family even covered it with a large protective magic circle.
It does sound like a nice island, but no one except the Rodrigo family knows how many resources are left on the island.
"Ah... yes, but that's not a problem. If you are willing to help Shiyavi pay taxes, His Majesty will issue you a document of priority passage. You can take Shiyavi to that island for vacation at any time. The climate there is very suitable for Shiyavi to recuperate. Grand Duke Hudson gave this island to Shiyavi for her health. Although he said it was given to Shiyavi, she is your wife, and the island will belong to the Far North Territory in the future."
Brett deliberately emphasized the last sentence, but the Lord of the Snowfield didn't seem interested.
The other person was pulling the golden chain in his hand, teasing the person in his arms with some boredom, and sneered after hearing his words.
"Wife? Isn't that a trophy? Why would I buy a useless island for a trophy? Gold mines are dispensable to us Parasauans. We also have iron mines. I am not interested in other resources. Besides, who knows if your island has been hollowed out?"
Sal took Xie Wei's hand and scratched Little Rose's soft palm. Although he had discussed it with Little Rose, Sal was still worried that Little Rose would feel uncomfortable after saying this.
Xie Wei gently held Sal's fingers. He knew that Sal was lying. The man had never spoken to him in such a contemptuous tone.
Even when the relationship was not pleasant at the beginning, the man was very persistent in repeating over and over again that they were each other's partners.
Although he used to feel like Thrall's little pet because of Thrall's excessive possessiveness, to be honest, Thrall would never look down on him. Although he did not respect his personal wishes in some aspects, he respected him in other areas.
Sal was willing to serve him like a servant and liked to stand behind him like a guard. Sal would call him "Your Highness". Every time he was called that by Sal, Xie Wei would feel like a real prince.
Ryan and the Paraso warriors who had been notified by Ryan in advance resisted the urge to roll their eyes and continued to stare at the floor tiles in silence.
If they didn't know how attentive the lord was to His Highness Shiavi, they would have almost believed the lies the lord had just said.
Hey, that's really good!
The hall suddenly fell into deathly silence because of Thrall's words. Brett was stuck, and the other Imperial Knights felt as if they had been slapped in the face.
spoils of war.
By the way, His Highness Shiavi was sent to the Far North Territory as spoils of war in exchange for prisoners after the empire was defeated.
The originally straight backs of the knights of the empire sagged slightly, and they no longer dared to raise their heads to look in the direction of His Highness Shiavi.
When everyone thought about what they had seen in the hall before, they all felt that they were really assholes.
Was it because they were defeated that such a young prince was tortured and humiliated like this? How could they dare to look directly at the prince? And even have inappropriate thoughts about him?
Elsie, who was standing next to Conrad, had never felt so damnable before. He had even had some inappropriate fantasies about His Highness Shiavi's body. Although he knew that he was a bit lustful, he now just wanted to slap himself hard a few times.
What a jerk, he really is a jerk.
No matter what the knights of the Royal Knights were thinking, Brett was the one who was really going crazy.
The Lord of the Snowfield actually has no feelings for Shiavi at all. They have slept together so many times in half a year, but he is still so unmoved.
Although he had long known that the current lord of the Parasos was a cold-blooded guy, Brett had not expected that he would so ruthlessly call his bedmate a trophy, and say it in front of the other person.
If Shiavi's approach doesn't work, Brett can't think of any other way to make the Lord of the Snowfield interested in Hutt Island.
Just as he was racking his brains, a sob suddenly came from the main seat. The sound was very small, but because the hall was very quiet, everyone could hear it very clearly.
The person in the Snowfield Lord's arms seemed to be hurt by what his partner said. He was so sad that he couldn't help crying, but he didn't dare to make too much noise.
The people in the hall could only see Xie Wei trembling slightly with his head buried in Sal's arms. No one knew that Sal touched his extremely sensitive birthmark under his clothes that no one else could see.
Xie Wei's sobs were only caused by the sudden touch of Sal, and he couldn't control his sobs when he bit his lips to suppress his scream.
