Chapter 502 The Spade Family’s Dream

It is normal for Colliver to be under pressure. Although the Spader family is very powerful, everything seen in Ellington shows that Ellington is not as backward as the rumors say. They have very strong strength.

Hidden behind these rapidly developing towns is a terrifying force with unlimited potential.

Thinking of the Datang Chamber of Commerce's astonishing ability to make money, as well as Tang En's strong declaration of independence before, Colliver, who was sitting in the chair, swallowed. This time, maybe things really won't go as smoothly as imagined.

"Are you the messenger of the Spade family?"

Suddenly hearing a voice coming from behind, Colliver perked up: The real owner is here!

"Lord Down, I salute you."

Colliver stood up and turned around to salute.

"Now I am the King of Ellington, not a lord. Ellington is independent."

One sentence left Colliver speechless.

Although everyone knows that Ellington is independent, is it too arrogant for you to directly claim the throne like you?

Tang En took Fiona and Alleria to sit down opposite him, and then went straight to the point: "I don't have time to waste, just tell me what your purpose is."

After pondering the lines for a while, Colliver said thoughtfully: "That's it. Duke Mandel, the patriarch of our Spade family, wants to reach a cooperative relationship with Ellington -"

"Cooperation? How to cooperate?"

Tang En interrupted him and looked at him with a half-smile: "Do you, the Spade family, plan to stand on our side and become our Ellington's internal agent in Yalinks? Wait until we break into Yalinks. When you stand up and shout, then you stand up and respond?"

Breaking into Yalinks?

Colliver took a breath, this man's ambition was greater than he imagined!

"That's not the case, we-"

"Tell me directly," Tang En suddenly leaned forward, and the extremely oppressive momentum made Colliver breathless, "Just which side do you Spade family want to stand now? Support Gilad." ? Or support me...or Princess Alleria?"

Tang En directly used Princess Alleria as an excuse to become independent and pushed her away. Alleria next to her secretly pouted.

The dominance of the topic was gradually being controlled by Tang En, but Colliver was an elite member of the Spade family after all. After a moment of chaos, he stabilized his position and avoided talking about Tang En's question, saying: "We are here. The Pad family is willing to support Ellington secretly and provide you with ores, metals, food, and even very important magic metals that are prohibited from being transported by the empire, and they are guaranteed to be at market prices."

"Oh? Interesting, tell me about the specific cooperation method."

Tang En leaned back on the chair. As expected, as Princess Alleria had guessed, the Spade family seemed to want to make war fortune.

The topic seemed to be developing in a favorable direction, and Colliver cheered up: "That's right, we have our own channels that can avoid border blockades and transport supplies to Ellington. You can provide us with the required list. When it’s ready, we’ll send someone to transport it, and of course, both parties will share the transportation cost.”

"Now that Ellington is independent, war will be inevitable when facing Prince Gilad in the future. At this time, our Spade family can become Ellington's firm and powerful ally, secretly serving you Provide a lot of support to help you defeat Gillard."

"Similarly, since we have provided help, we also need to be rewarded. What we need is that if Mr. Tang En can really defeat Gilad and successfully reach the summit in the future, our Spade family needs to obtain a fiefdom..."

Tang En waved his hand to interrupt him and looked at him with a half-smile: "Do you believe I can hit Alex?"

"You are kidding. Since you dare to be independent, it proves that you must have this kind of confidence..."

Alleria asked abruptly: "Is this what you promised to Gilad?"

"of course not!"

Colliver answered decisively: "Clan Mandel has never entered the castle since the coronation ceremony. He found that His Highness the Prince's personality has changed drastically since the coronation. At this time, His Excellency Tang En published an article in Datang Daily doubting the death of the late king. The truth is, Chief Mandel also suspected whether there was any conspiracy, so he made this choice."

"Help Ellington fight against Gilad, while waiting for us to dig out the truth, and remain neutral until then. Is this your strategy? It's quite in line with the Spade family's passive style."

Alleria smiled faintly and said: "Tell me your real demands. Unrealistic promises like a fiefdom are impossible. Even Duke Mandel cannot bet so big in this war. I I don’t believe that just because of a suspicion, he dared to collaborate with the enemy and betray the country. If Gilad knew about it now, the Spader family would be slaughtered in the blink of an eye."

Colliver smiled bitterly in his heart. It really wasn't that simple. After sighing, he said, "Actually, Chief Mandel does have one more request."

Tang En and Alleria looked at each other and said, "Say."

"The Spader family can form a strategic alliance with Ellington, but there are some prerequisites first..."

Colliver looked at Princess Alleria. Alleria instinctively noticed something and frowned.

"Princess Alleria, you should be very clear about our Master Macaro's feelings for you. Even now, he has not changed and is willing to provide you with shelter and support, as long as you are willing to accept Master Macaro's advances. , Chief Mandel promised that our Spade family will be willing to fully support Ellington's rise, and at the same time be willing to provide financial support with all our strength."

"Is this your purpose?"

Alleria sneered: "By marrying me, I have a legitimate reason to help Ellington rebel. At the same time, I also hope that if the rebellion fails, I can use my relationship with Gilad to get him to be lenient and protect him." The vital force of the Spader family? If it succeeds, it will be extremely meritorious, and it may even have a chance to become king. If it fails, it will be wise to protect itself. Duke Mandel really thought of a plan to get the best of both worlds."

"But first, I have already announced my renunciation of inheritance rights and engraved it on the Holy Monument of Light. The oath can never be broken, so it is impossible to use me to obtain inheritance rights."

"Second, Gilad is no longer the Gilad he used to be. It is impossible for him to be merciful because of me. I can tell you clearly that my father was killed by him. This time the Spade family secretly sent The messenger may have noticed when he came to Ellington, so you'd better pray that nothing happens to the Spade family now."

Suddenly hearing that Victor was killed by Gilad, Colliver's breathing stopped for a moment, and then the thought of "impossible" flashed in his mind.

Not to mention that Victor was protected by the Keqing Mage beside him, how could he die so easily just because of the legendary protective magic equipment on his body?

What's more, Victor's support for Gilad is something that the entire Yalinks senior management knows clearly. Why would he kill his father?

Just to be crowned king? But if he keeps waiting, the throne will be his sooner or later!

"And thirdly," Alleria's face became even colder, "I have no intention of marrying Count Macaro. In other words, since I gave up my inheritance rights, Count Macaro has given up on harassing me. This makes me very happy, and it also proves that I was not wrong before.”

Colliver was speechless: "But -"

"Don't say it yet," Tang En said suddenly, "I noticed that you just said the word 'support'. In other words, does the Spade family want to support us and become a puppet regime?"

Colliver opened his mouth, facing Tang En's gaze that penetrated his soul, but he couldn't deny even a single word.

Because that’s what Chief Mandel meant.

"If that's the case, I'm sorry, but I have no intention of becoming someone else's puppet."

Tang En said calmly: "Of course, if the Spader family is interested in cooperating with us, we welcome you to transfer your wealth to Ellington and move everything here."

After the Spade family arrived at Ellington, didn't Tang En do whatever he wanted to do with it? When the time comes, Fiona can easily complete her revenge.

How can this be!

Colliver shook his head secretly, asking Chief Mandel to give up everything and gamble on Ellington's success?

impossible.

As the largest and richest family in the empire, the Spader family has reached the top. If they can develop further, they will have to sit in that position, or obtain a fiefdom and become the overlord of one party.

Unfortunately, in order to strengthen his rule, Victor no longer divided the territory, so when Tang En obtained Ellington, it attracted so many people's attention.

The cost and risk of becoming an independent king are too high, and Mandel cannot afford to gamble.

But now, Ellington's independence has brought him an opportunity. If a puppet regime can be supported and let it gain a firm foothold, the Spader family can sit back and watch the fight. If Ellington wins, Spader will The De family has made a lot of money. If Ellington loses, they will only lose some gold coins and will not be hurt.

Whether Tang En accepts the intention to cooperate or reaches a marriage relationship with Alleria, the plan can go smoothly.

However, this plan, which could be called the best of both worlds, has completely failed.

Twain didn't want to see them go it alone, let alone become puppets. If he wanted to cooperate, he would have to tie himself to Ellington's chariot, and he didn't think about anything else.

Princess Alleria decisively rejected Master Macaro's advances, and her plan to marry the princess to obtain a gold medal for immunity from death also failed.

In addition to obtaining a large amount of information from Ellington, the mission he had undertaken when he came here has completely failed.

"Sir Colliver, please come back."

Tang En stood up and said calmly: "I hope that on the day when we really enter Yalinks, we won't be fighting each other."

"Your Excellency Tang En——"

Colliver wanted to make one last effort.

"Please leave immediately, otherwise I can't guarantee whether you can leave Ellington alive!"

Fiona mercilessly issued an eviction order, eyes full of hatred staring at Colliver like daggers.

After walking out of the gate of the Lord's Mansion, Colliver was still very unwilling, and he couldn't even figure out why Fiona hated him so much.

"Get out of the way."

At this time, several people rushed past him and rushed directly into the Lord's Mansion: Oh, why are you so slow? Time is running out! "

"You are too impatient!"

Colliver paused and looked back, only to see three figures.

Such a familiar voice and figure?

Who is coming?

"Come on, hurry up, don't stay here."

The guards at the door brought Colliver's guards back and expelled him impatiently. Colliver snorted, straightened his clothes, and then left the Lord's Mansion with his guards.
