Within the palace, Olivia silently thought to herself.
As the north-south trade continued, Chen Heng would become more and more powerful.
Right now, she was very clear about this.
The north-south trade not only helped the northern rulers get out of their predicament, but it also helped the southern rulers obtain more profits. Chen Heng was also a part of this, and he would be able to obtain a lot of benefits.
As time passed, as long as trade continued, whether it was the northern or southern rulers, they would become closer to Chen Heng and support him more.
This was especially so for the northern rulers …
Thinking about the northern ruler, Olivia could not help but think of something.
"You were there when Verna and Kaelin met a few times, right?"
She looked at the female servant below with a calm expression as she asked.
"How are they getting along?"
She asked.
"Princess Verna seems to like Knight Kaelin a lot …"
The female servant thought for a moment before saying, "It's the same for Knight Kaelin.
He treats Princess Verna much more warmly than he treats other girls. "
"I see …"
Olivia thought to herself.
After sending people to investigate Chen Heng for a long time, she had some understanding of his situation.
This was a knight who scrupulously abided by the Five Virtues. His character was impeccable, and he was almost perfect.
From the people he interacted with, whether it was Kaelin or the other people in the Kutu Academy, they all had very high evaluations of him.
He was gentle and courteous to women and would not offend them.
He was passionate and serious to friends and was willing to treat them seriously.
He was incredibly diligent in his cultivation, and it was said that he would wake up before the sun rose to train and never slacked off for a single day.
In terms of morals, he was a perfect Knight.
Olivia had a lot of experience, but in the past, only some Ascetics could compare to Chen Heng in some aspects.
For such a Knight to treat Verna so specially, he most likely liked her a lot.
In that moment, many thoughts flashed through Olivia's mind.
Most of the royal marriages were cruel.
For certain purposes, there were many who married each other.
However, as Verna's big sister, Verna's wishes were also very important to Olivia.
Since she liked this Kaelin, and he could be of help to her to a certain extent, this was naturally a perfect thing to do.
At that moment, Olivia thought to herself.
"Send people to quickly deliver Verna's letter."
After a moment of silence and contemplation, she raised her head and spoke again.
"Yes."
The maid in front of him nodded, then turned around and left.
.....
"My brother, what is Ormando doing?"
Next to a wide river, Chen Heng looked at the servant beside him and asked calmly.
"He was sent to a small town by Lord Baron. It is said that he has been drinking there every day."
The servant said respectfully.
"Has everything been arranged?"
Chen Heng asked.
"It's been arranged."
The servant nodded and said, "We've already sent the news to that group of bandits."
"It's just that …"
At this point, a trace of hesitation appeared on his face. "Sir, why are we doing this?"
"This batch of goods is very important to us. If the news gets out, it might …"
"It's very likely that they'll be tempted and come looking for trouble with us. They might even rob this batch of goods."
Chen Heng smiled, "That's exactly what I want."
"Why?"
The servant felt quite confused.
This time, Chen Heng did not reply and only silently turned and looked at the river.
"Send someone to Ormando and tell him that after father chased him away, father greatly misses him and hopes that he can come back …"
Looking at the servant, Chen Heng's expression was calm as he said calmly, "Do you know what to say?"
"I understand."
Looking at Chen Heng's expression, the servant paused and his expression became serious.
The next day.
"Did father really say that?"
Looking at the man in front of him, Ormando's eyes widened as he spoke.
A year had passed. Compared to before, Ormando was now dressed in casual clothes, and he seemed much more dispirited. He no longer looked the same as he did in the past.
His body was still tall and sturdy, but at this moment, he couldn't help but become fat, and his body was filled with the smell of alcohol.
At this moment, he stood there, staring at the man in front of him with bloodshot eyes. There was a hint of anticipation on his face.
"It's true."
Looking at Ormando, the man hurriedly nodded, "When I was serving Master, I heard him sigh many times.
"When I chased you away from my side, Lord Baron regretted it a little …"
"After all, you're his eldest son, his child. How could he not miss you?"
"I knew it."
Hearing these words, Ormando could not help but smile, "Father wouldn't just abandon me like this …
"I'm his eldest son, the future successor of the family.
Master Baron secretly wants you to go back, "the man said respectfully.
In front of him, the man respectfully said, "If you can go back now and appear beside the baron, he will definitely be very happy."
"Just in time, Lord Baron is about to go out with Young Master Kailin to see Baron Myra …"
"Young master, if you go now, you'll be able to make it in time."
"Hmph."
Hearing Chen Heng's name, Ormando's expression became cold as flames of fury burned within him, "That bastard dared to come back."
Some things just did not make sense.
It was clear that Chen Heng had not done anything to him yet, but to Ormando, he felt that it was all because of Chen Heng that he was in such a state.
He showed no signs of repentance.
"I'm going back."
Standing there, he thought back to Chen Heng and could not help but coldly laugh, "Kaelin, that fellow, wants to do something while I'm not here.
His plan won't succeed.
I'll let him know who the eldest son is and who father's successor is. "
He immediately had people prepare to return to Baron Kaisen's manor.
Seeing Ormando's actions, the man inwardly let out a sigh of relief.
The next day.
"Ormando? Why did he come back? "
Within the manor, hearing the servant's report, Baron Kaisen's expression became cold.
"Didn't I tell him to reflect on himself outside? Why did he come back? "
His expression was quite unsightly, as if he was very dissatisfied with Ormando.
This dissatisfaction had accumulated over the years.
Even if he did not compare himself to Chen Heng, many of the things that Ormando had done in the past were simply too absurd.
