Steel, Guns and the Industrial Party Across the World - Chapter 609
In the Northwest Bay, there is a custom similar to some places in the previous life, and the age is recorded according to the imaginary age.
When Paul just awakened the memory of his past life, that year was 1990 in the Holy Calendar. His false age was 14, but his actual age was 13.
After being kicked out of the ducks and became a lord for five years, that is, in 1995 in the current holy calendar, he is already 18 years old.
People in the Northwest Bay get married very early, and Paul is a proper older youth there.
Myron Garnard, who is about his age, became engaged to a nobleman’s daughter last year.
And Derrick Heller, who is two years older than Paul, is already the father of a child.
Because of Paul’s pickiness in his own marriage, this can be very anxious to the old housekeeper Philip.
Especially after a rebellion was detonated because of the reform not long ago, the old housekeeper became more anxious about Paul’s marriage.
This time when Jingyao went south to meet the king, the old housekeeper was moved.
Girls from the Northwest Gulf are not in your eyes, so Jingyao will always be there.
So he begged Paul to socialize more in Jingyao, attend more banquets, and bring back a mistress to Graman’s castle.
Of course, he also knew that Paul was not sociable, so he begged other people in the same company to “lead” Paul as much as possible.
On the way to Jingyao, Paul also had some fantasies.
But he didn’t expect that his lifelong event would come in such a way.
Hansel’s father, Earl Pearson Abbott, was sent to him by Rodney XVIII to ask him if he would like to be a companion on the road with Princess Catherine Rodney.
Catherine Rodney, the dream lover of many aristocrats and talents in the kingdom, actually… wants to marry herself?
Not long ago, he met this famous princess in military uniform.
Her appearance is impeccable. Unlike Radi Setia’s calmness like water, Catherine’s beauty is an aggressive and coercive beauty.
Although she didn’t speak many words, every sentence was sonorous and powerful, full of some kind of power.
All of the above may be in a high position for a long time, especially the unique temperament developed by commanding a male-dominated army for a long time.
She is simply the Royal Sister among Royal Sisters.
As for whether Paul is satisfied with such a woman, it must be 1000% satisfied.
After a long silence, Paul asked Earl Abbott, “What does the princess mean?”
Baron Pearson Abbott smiled at him, “Since it is His Majesty the King’s intention, I think Her Royal Highness the Princess herself will also be happy.”
ah? Is that happy or not?
Paul felt a little mysterious.
“This… can I think about it?”
This is not a pie in the sky, it is simply a big gold mine!
Will there be such a good thing in the world?
Even if there is, can you catch it yourself?
Paul has some doubts about the above issues, and he needs to find someone to discuss.
Earl Abbott was slightly surprised by Paul’s answer.
“Okay, do you need me to tell the king that you are thinking about it? Or, let me delay replying for some time and directly give His Majesty the exact answer of yes or no.”
After thinking about it for a while, Paul said, “If possible, I hope it’s the second one.”
The king wants to marry his sister to him, so he still has to put on a show and say that he needs to think about it?
Earl Abbott nodded, “Okay, I will enter the palace tomorrow afternoon to reply to His Majesty, and you will have one day to think about it before then.”
Listening to the conversation between his father and Paul, Hansel felt turmoil in his heart.
There is still a little sour taste in this wave, after all, which nobleman in Jingyao has never had admiration for Princess Catherine.
But the most important thing is to re-examine Paul. Is the Earl of Arda strong enough to win over the king through marriage?
Of course, Hansel also knew some other things through his father, such as the new king’s fear of Her Royal Highness’s supporters.
But if it’s just out of fear, the king can marry his sister to other places, there are too many choices.
But His Majesty chose Paul Greiman.
Hansel couldn’t help persuading him: “Master Graeman, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you become an in-law with the royal family, you will become one of the highest-ranking figures in the kingdom in one step.”
“Northwest Gulf will also play an important role in Aldo’s political scene.”
Hansel’s voice was full of temptation, but he also had his own considerations.
As an official who has served Paul for many years, if Paul becomes a high-ranking official in the kingdom, his importance will also increase accordingly.
“You are right, Hansel, so I need to think more carefully.”
Alas, if I knew it earlier, I would have brought old Ford or Philip to Jingyao, and they would definitely analyze it for themselves.
Paul sent away Abbott and his son in a state of confusion.
He closed the door, returned to his seat, and fell into a long silence. UU reading www.uukanshu. com
“what?”
Words of unanimous surprise echoed around the table.
Mellon, Victor, Ratty, Bernard, Hansel who was called back, and several other northwest nobles who had befriended Paul on weekdays—Price Parker, Derrick Heller and others , are now gathered in a room in Alda’s office in Jingyao.
“That famous Princess Catherine, the king actually… wants to marry him to you?”
Everyone expressed their disbelief.
“What? Don’t you think I’m not qualified to marry her?”
Paul was a little annoyed. OK! That’s how you see me.
“Oh, don’t get me wrong, Paul!”
Earl Parker came out to smooth things over, “The marriage of a princess in a kingdom is already a big event. No matter who she is marrying, everyone will be surprised when they hear his name.”
“Then what is your opinion?”
“What’s the point of asking for an opinion? Of course I agree.”
Price Parker’s tone was firm.
“It is the dream of many aristocrats to marry a royal family back home. And it is Princess Catherine who is married, which is something that many aristocrats dare not even dream of doing.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Myron and Victor agreed.
“This is a great good thing! We are envious or not envious.”
“Yes, be brave, Paul!”
It seems that they all have a hard time agreeing.
Paul turned his gaze to Ratty, questioningly.
“Well, ahem, Ladi, what do you think?”
The witch didn’t answer right away, it was the first time Paul saw her in a daze.
He waited patiently, but the result was only a few light words.
“I don’t have any opinion. Graham-sama, you can decide for yourself.”
