Arad's unruly savior
Chapter 3730: Trampled Wine
Is it because Nosadia and the eldest prince Van Franz had a good relationship in the past? I'm afraid not.
Prince Vann is selfish, arbitrary, self-willed, good at controlling people of lower status, and publicly expresses his desire for the throne. He has a very ordinary relationship with his brothers and sisters because he regards them as competitors for the throne.
It was because the third princess and he had the same biological mother, and because the third princess liked to go out on adventures and had never shown any desire for the throne, that he only had a good relationship with his younger sister Isabella.
I have never heard of any close relationship between the eldest prince Van Franz and the second princess Nosadia. They are just siblings by blood.
The two sides had a fierce conflict over the affairs of the Royal Academy of the Delos Empire.
The eldest prince wants more graduates from the Royal Academy to serve under him. They are the future backbone of the empire, top students, officers of the future army, officials scattered across the cities of the empire, the best magicians, and so on.
The second princess objected to this, believing that he should not be allowed to interfere in the empire's highest institution of learning and develop influence there, and that the Royal Academy should be loyal to the emperor in its stance.
Seeing his puzzled look, Nosadia gradually smiled and spoke in a more relaxed and cheerful tone, "He is my brother. It is normal for me, as his sister, to hope that he can get better."
Ye Lin smiled and shook his head: "It's very abnormal. Even in an ordinary family, it is difficult for half-siblings to maintain a friendly and harmonious relationship. There will be a layer of alienation between each other, not to mention that you are a royal family."
"Sir Ye Lin, please don't think that our royal family is so scheming and deceitful. There are also pure emotions between our royal members." Nosadia acted very disappointed, shook her head slowly, and whispered something like "Prejudice in people's hearts is a mountain."
Feeling that Ye Lin was looking at her seriously and with a bit of weird eyes, Nosadia subconsciously explained: "It's not what you think. Although sometimes nobles are obsessed with the bond of blood, the monopoly of power, and scandals of close relatives, the royal family has to maintain its reputation, and such unethical things are not allowed to happen."
Of course, Nosadia did not mention that there had actually been cases of close relatives of royal family members in the history of the empire.
They were a pair of close cousins, and their child was born with many diseases and died not long after.
"We'll talk about it later."
The second princess gestured to him to look at the carriage parked on the side of the road. Apona, with a ponytail, was sitting in the coachman's seat. She seemed bored and was eating a bag of nuts with unfocused eyes.
Hearing the approaching footsteps, Apona came back to her senses with a start, quickly grasped the dagger at her waist, and her eyes suddenly became sharp, as if a ferocious beast had suddenly awakened.
"Your Highness..." Apona quickly jumped off the carriage and saluted. She then looked at Ye Lin beside her, hesitated for a moment, and also bowed and saluted: "Lord Ye Lin, long time no see."
She was originally sent to Huttonmar by a letter from Hughman. The reason was that Hughman guessed Ye Lin's preferences and felt that his distant relative Abonna, although not very beautiful, had the advantage of being young, athletic and energetic, with a somewhat wild beauty in her brows, and particularly big breasts.
Then Ye Lin was quite helpless about Xiuman's advances. Although Abonnaboda was a feature he admired very much, he was busy going to the divine world at that time.
Besides, how can there be any progress when you have only just met someone?
So he made a handy weapon for Apona and a bottle of potion that could cleanse her bones and marrow, and let her return to Vetalon, so that her trip was not in vain.
The interior of the second princess' carriage was extremely spacious, like a luxurious room, with an entrance and exit on the side. At a glance, it was inlaid with gold and jade, paved with silk, and equipped with several stairs for easy going up and down. Abonna pulled down the stairs.
Nosadia got on the carriage first, holding up her warm yellow dress. Ye Lin, who was behind her, waited for a few seconds and then followed her into the interior space.
"You are the first man to ride in this private carriage." Nosadia smiled and raised her hand to open a secret compartment. Inside was a bottle of expensive red wine and a high-heeled glass made of natural crystal.
When the carriage started to the Second Princess's manor, Nosadia shook the goblet of charming liquid between her fingers and said calmly, "I want the First Prince to come back for two reasons."
“First, when I turned twenty, the eldest prince promised me that as long as I did not fight for the throne and supported him to ascend the throne, he would help me ruin a marriage that I really disliked. Then, I don’t know how he succeeded. It was revealed that my marriage partner had appeared in a brothel. This was an intolerable scandal for the royal family, so my marriage was successfully cancelled.” The Delos Empire regards eighteen years old as the coming-of-age ceremony, but believes that twenty years old is the point when a person truly enters adulthood, and only after the age of twenty can one take on the responsibilities of an adult.
The eldest princess Celia was granted marriage at the age of nineteen, and Nosadia, as the second princess, was naturally not spared. Her marriage helped consolidate the royal rule and deepen the loyalty of the powerful to the imperial power. The nobles were also proud to be able to cling to the royal family.
This is unavoidable. There is only one throne, and the other princes and princesses must have a future, their own careers and families.
"Although the eldest prince is in a depressed state now, as promised, I will make him recover to the best of my ability."
Ye Lin had been observing Nosadia's subtle expression to make sure she was not lying. He had also heard Celia and Isabella mention the Second Princess's engagement.
Among the princes and princesses of the royal family, only the third princess was very favored by Emperor Lyon, so she was allowed to be free to choose the life she wanted and pursue her own love.
The only condition is that the marriage partner must be a nobleman of status.
"I've heard about your story. It turns out there is such a reason. I think I can understand and appreciate your keeping your word." Ye Lin took a sip of the expensive red wine. After a moment of astringency and alcohol in the mouth, there was a continuous fruity aroma and sweet aftertaste, rippling between his lungs, mouth and nose.
"really not bad."
Even Ye Lin, who was used to drinking girls' juice, thought that this bottle of wine tasted very good.
"As long as you like it." Nosadia smiled and introduced: "It comes from the Empire..."
The second princess mentioned a place that Ye Lin felt seemed a little familiar.
Soon, he found a clue in his memory. It was the proprietress Sosia who had talked to him about it. He pointed to the label on the wine bottle and said:
"Unlike other wines that focus on grape variety, origin, and brewing techniques, the selling point of this wine is purity."
The biggest gimmick of this wine is that the entire process, from picking grapes to the final successful brewing and bottling, is completed by pure women.
Of course, young women may not have experience in winemaking, so they will be guided remotely by experienced female winemakers to ensure that the basic process of winemaking is up to standard.
It is said that when it comes to squeezing wine, pure women would stand in a large wooden basin filled with grapes, crush the grape flesh with their feet, and squeeze out fresh grape juice.
"Pure Wine, it seems like this is your business." Ye Lin looked at Nosadia. It was normal for princes and princesses to have their own careers.
The second princess admitted that she was the boss behind the scenes and that the selling points and gimmicks were also her idea.
Ye Lin raised the goblet, looked at the charming crystal liquid inside, and guessed: "Could this bottle of wine be made by you stepping on it?"
"Yes..." The second princess felt a little regretful. She should have torn off the label of the wine bottle. She didn't expect that Ye Lin was quite knowledgeable in this area.
"Is that so?" Ye Lin immediately took another sip, "It tastes good."
The Second Princess was silent for a moment...
