Doomsday Code

Chapter 346 Discussing Marriage

And Chen Cheng also knew that he must give him an explanation.

It's impossible that he would reject his mother's arrangement just because of what I said.

Moreover, Chen Cheng had legitimate reasons for wanting Huidun to reject Princess Feipusa.

"What we lack most now is the support of the military."

“Even if we can get Mordornik to join the battle this time, given his character, he will at most remain neutral in the end.

So we need other strong support besides this.”

Then Chen Cheng took the letter in front of him and said:

"And the one that Her Royal Highness wants to find for you this time should be a noblewoman from a great noble family in the capital. Although this will be very helpful to you in terms of identity and status, the key point now is not to gain the support of those old nobles."

Seeing Huidun still hesitant, Chen Cheng said:

“And based on the monthly briefings on the kingdom’s decrees that I read from Tophis, I think you should not get too close to these old nobles for now. Otherwise, if you really want to do something big in the future, these emotional entanglements will be enough to give you a headache.

And judging from His Majesty's thoughts, he might want to see an heir with independent autonomy, rather than an heir kidnapped by a group of people with common interests."

Chen Cheng's words were already very straightforward. Huidun thought about it and nodded.

"But even if you say so, and I refuse the marriage arranged by my mother, what about my marriage?"

Huidun rubbed his brows and said.

At this time, Chen Cheng showed a treacherous smile and said:

"Your future brother-in-law is both far away and right in front of you."

Huidun thought about it, and then looked at Chen Cheng in front of him.

When Chen Cheng saw this look in his eyes, he had no idea what this guy was up to.

He rolled his eyes at Huidun and said:

"Don't think too much, it's not me.

And I believe that our Majesty has already thought about it for you."

After being reminded by Chen Cheng, Huidun thought about it again, and then he said uncertainly:

"You mean Xiao Dun?"

When Huidun heard about the arrangements made by His Majesty that Chen Cheng mentioned, the only person around him who could be thought of was Xiao Dun.

To be honest, he didn't know much about Xiao Dun, nor did he know the composition of his family. He only knew that his father Solo was a capable general in the kingdom, and was awarded a title for his military achievements in the kingdom's last foreign war more than ten years ago.

It was also because of his father's outstanding performance that many old nobles believed that the bonus period of war was about to arrive, and the whole country began to advocate war.

It was just at this time that Moss XIII put the brakes on the empire that was caught up in the war frenzy, and the kingdom quickly turned from this victorious war to internal development.

At that time, many people opposed Moss XIII's new national policy. They all believed that as long as they made another effort, they would have the hope of completely annexing their neighboring countries.

However, the most important person at this time, Solo, stood up. When everyone thought he would be a supporter of the war, he suddenly spoke out for peaceful development.

It can be said that his voice played a decisive role. From then on, the kingdom shifted its focus to internal development, with a large number of old troops being disbanded and commercial development being encouraged.

It was this policy change that led to the birth of Bryusto, the richest man in the kingdom.

At the same time, because of Solo's brilliant and beautiful victory, the kingdom was not threatened by foreign kingdoms when it was caught in internal strife due to national policies in its early years.

Huidun didn't know that his father sent Xiao Dun to find him a helper.

He is also the only general who has actually led troops into battle and won battles in the past decade.

The only test that Moss XIII gave him was to see if he could control Xiao Dun and make Solo, the kingdom's military god, work for him.

And it is obvious that, unintentionally, because of Chen Cheng's participation and the emergence of new weapons, Huidun has conquered Xiao Dun, the future heir to the Marquis.

The reason why Chen Cheng asked Huidun to choose Xiao Dun was that he overheard it by chance when they were drinking to celebrate that day.

At that time, because of the appearance of artillery, everyone drank too much, and while drunk, Xiao Dun told him some of his true feelings.

It also mentioned that he had a younger sister who was already of marriageable age, but because of his departure, she was afraid that her father would be alone when he got old, so her marriage was delayed.

Chen Cheng was not sensitive to this matter before, but now when talking about Huidun's marriage, Chen Cheng thought of the gentle and virtuous sister mentioned by Xiao Dun.

Perhaps at that time, the guy had already dug a hole for himself and wanted to tell Huidun about it with his own mouth.

Huidun was silent for a while, then said:

"Then let's do as you say, but I don't want to force anyone else. Maybe she already has a man she likes, so I still need to get her personal confirmation."

After Huidun finished speaking, he rubbed his brows. To be honest, he felt very uncomfortable using his marriage as a transaction.

Even if he really likes the girl, and the girl likes him too, there will always be a little knot in his heart.

Chen Cheng also saw the sadness in Huidun's heart from his expression. He stood up and walked to Chen Cheng, patted him on the shoulder and said:

"Why bother yourself? If you really want to confirm it, it's very simple. I think after this exploration of the ruins, all of us who participated in it will have to go to the capital. Then you can disguise yourself and go take a look."

Although Chen Cheng's plan is a bit sneaky, it may also be a good idea.

If you are really interested, then go meet her. If she really likes you, then just settle down.

If you don't like it, just ignore it.

What am I worrying about?

After sorting out his mood, Huidun felt much more relieved.

At this time, Chen Cheng saw that there was nothing else to worry about, so he thought about leaving.

But since he has been called here, and Huidun's variable magic still has a lot of problems, how could he let Chen Cheng leave?

Then he pulled Chen Cheng aside to discuss the variable magic.

Chen Cheng was also happy about this. He also benefited a lot from communicating with Huidun, the chaos mage.

At this time in the Church Monastic College, Tuotu was looking at the instructions given by Archbishop Qusai in his hand. There were only two words on it: "tentative".

Tuotuo knew that the bishop was in no mood to take care of this matter.

Although he was extremely unwilling and hoped that the archbishop would pay attention to the 'Monkey King', the entire church's attention was now focused on that traitor. He was only a monk and could do nothing about it.
