Yuan Hua's hand landed on Torreya's shoulder.

"It's not convenient to talk here, let's find another place to talk."

"Row."

Seeing Yuan Hua's seriousness, Torreya readily agreed.

……

"Tsk, brother-in-law, your ability is so useful. If I had this ability, Luo Biluo would never see me in this lifetime."

Torreya plopped down on the stool, waiting for Yuan Hua to make tea.

"Let's talk business first."

Yuan Hua slammed Brooke Alexander's file on the table.

What's your relationship with this person?

"Hmm? Viscount Alexander? Not familiar with him."

Torreya shook his head.

"We've only greeted each other a few times, and they've been very polite to me."

"Um……"

Yuan Hua nodded slightly.

"He received a guest these past two days, guess who it is."

"Hmm? He's in charge of receiving guests..."

Torreia suddenly stopped...

"You mean... the traitors?"

"You knew he was a traitor?"

Yuan Hua always felt like he'd been tricked...

Richard, you're asking me to investigate something even the prince knows?

"I do not know."

Torreya looked completely bewildered...

"It's just speculation."

Hey kid, he's even trying to scam me now...

Yuan Hua crushed the teacup in his hand with a "bang"...

"Hey hey hey! I was really just guessing blindly..."

Torreya panicked. This was not his home turf. There was no elemental power in the entire space. In this environment, a mage would have to spend several times more mental energy to simulate the elemental structure in order to draw the magic circle.

Outside, Yuan Hua could fight him to a standstill, but here, ten of them wouldn't be enough to defeat Yuan Hua alone.

"Alright, alright, I'm too lazy to wait for you to guess anymore. To be honest, it's [Grand Duke Shukas] and [Commander of the Third Division of the Empire, Pudwov]."

Yuan Hua directly covered the costs.

"Zun Du Fake Du?"

Torreya craned his neck...

"Do you think I'm joking with you? Go investigate the treason case then."

Yuan Hua glared fiercely at Torreia...

"Don't dare, don't dare..."

Torreia immediately pulled his neck back...

"Long live brother-in-law! Brother-in-law is so powerful and awesome..."

"I need basic information about all members of these two families, the more the better, such as where they have illegitimate daughters, I need all of this information."

Yuan Hua poured boiling water into the teacup.

"I don't need illegitimate children, I'm not interested."

"what?"

Torreia didn't understand, but he was deeply shocked...

"Well----"

"Does it have to be female relatives?"

"of course."

Yuan Hua raised an eyebrow.

"Do you know why?"

"What?"

Torreia was somewhat puzzled. Indeed, the question was too profound...

"Because women are relatively weaker and easier to control."

Yuan Hua had a mysterious and unpredictable look on his face.

"My strength is decent compared to my peers, but the Duke's manor guards can't possibly be my age, can they?"

"Um……"

Chapter 182 Are you ready to inherit the will of the late king?

"Um……"

Torreia seemed to have grasped some useless knowledge...

“I don’t understand.”

"With a brain like yours, you might as well say goodbye to the throne."

Yuan Hua was convinced...

"No, I was just spacing out."

Torreya frowned.

"I'm mainly thinking about a problem."

"According to my brother-in-law, boys should also be considered a vulnerable group, so why can't boys be?"

"Hey! Kids shouldn't ask so many questions!"

Yuan Hua frowned deeply...

Why would a child need to know so much?

"Okay, okay, I'm just a kid."

Torreya was too lazy to argue with Yuan Hua. He just told him to give Yuan Hua whatever he wanted.

"When can you give it to me?"

Yuan Hua took a sip of tea.

"It will be ready in a moment."

Torreia tasted the tea and smacked his lips...

"Don't underestimate the royal palace's intelligence network."

"It would be a miracle if I thought too highly of it."

Yuan Hua rolled his eyes.

"If the royal palace's intelligence database were truly useful, what would be the point of having me?"

"This is different. The royal palace's intelligence database is limited to a census at most. They can't possibly send people to keep an eye on those nobles every day..."

Torreya was having a bit of a headache...

"If we really had that ability, Toronto wouldn't be filled with parasites and rubbish all over the country."

"It's all show and no substance."

Yuan Hua sighed.

"Everyone's having a tough time..."

"Speaking of which, haven't we gathered enough intelligence about Alexander Manor?"

Torreya blinked and stared intently at Yuan Hua.

"You don't actually have a crush on that girl, do you?"

"Or you think."

Yuan Hua raised an eyebrow, making no attempt to hide anything.

"I have indeed fallen for her."

"Oh……"

Toreria slightly opened his mouth...

"really envy you."

"What do you have to envy about me?"

Yuan Hua leaned back in his seat.

"It's not like you don't have the means."

"I do have the means, but you need to understand, brother, I can't just marry a princess during the crown prince competition unless she comes from a prestigious family."

(A little科普: First of all, it's not that princes can't choose their own spouses. Imagine you're a minister supporting a prince, and one day, the prince marries a princess of low status or from a less prominent family. How would you feel? Wouldn't you think, "What makes her so special? We risk our lives for status, and she just uses her words to climb over me with her whole family?")

"I understand that. Just hang in there a little longer, just hang in there a little longer."
