I'll Take You to an Exciting Place!

While Kyle lamented over himself, he did not know that in a specific tavern in Silk Street, one of his trusted ministers had already appeared before Lorne.

The head of the Ministry of Education, Rosen.

This big shot was a man of action. He spoke and acted swiftly and decisively. As long as he had an idea, he would immediately act on it.

He had made up his mind yesterday to secretly meet Lorne, and he had already appeared in this tavern today.

Of course, he took advantage of this opportunity to get ahead of Andrew. After all, he had just been promoted and was quite busy. He needed to review all the documents and memorials that had been submitted.

On the other hand, as the Head of Education, he did not have so many things to do after completing his official duties. Therefore, he did not request for guards and leisurely came to Silk Street alone in secret.

"Boss, today I came here alone. Do you think you could entertain your old pal?"

As soon as Rosen entered the tavern, he shouted at the top of his lungs.

This surprised Lorne.

It was the first time that he met this small group of businessmen separately. Other than Kyle, who always came here alone.

However, there was no reason not to attend to customers. A customer meant that he was earning money. Besides, Rosen was also a member of that small group of businessmen. Lorne was pretty sure that he would not be stingy when it comes to spending money.

Therefore, Lorne immediately stood up and showed a very warm smile.

"Rosen, you're treating me as an outsider. You came to my place, so there is no question of whether I'd entertain you or not. Charles is my brother. This means that you're mine too! Sit down. What do you want to eat today? I'll make anything, just for you."

Rosen sat down on the chair with a smile and said casually, "Boss, just serve me a few side dishes. After all, I'm alone. But I won't drink today. The few jars of wine that you asked me to bring back that day really made me drunk.

"At least let me rest for a few days, or else my body won't be able to take any more in the future."

When reminded of the amount of wine he drank, Rosen had a headache. He was afraid of the top-grade wine that Lorne brewed. Previously, after parting ways with Kyle, he carried both jars of wine and went to Zorn's house.

At first, they only exchanged a few pleasantries. In the end, it turned into a competition of who could drink more. Zorn refused to believe that the strong wine brought by Rosen could really knock him down.

In the end, the two founding elders immediately got drunk in Zorn's house and started talking nonsense. They even agreed to have a competition of strength in all aspects. Rosen said that he wanted to experience Zorn's three-move attack, while Zorn said that he wanted to compete with Rosen in poetry and songs.

In the end, the two men did not care about the dissuasion of the servants when they went to bed. They just brushed them all away as they lay on the ground, ready to sleep.

They slept until dawn.

The next morning, the decision-making department discussed the construction of the Bidas Palace. Rosen had set off directly from Zorn's home in a hurry.

One could imagine how powerful that jar of strong wine was. Thinking about it now gave Rosen a splitting headache, so he decided to take a break from drinking it.

After hearing Rosen's request, Lorne nodded in understanding. Then, he went to the kitchen to prepare a quick meal. He was much faster than before as all he had to prepare was side dishes, so he quickly brought the three dishes and a bowl of soup to Rosen.

"Come, come, come. I know you need to take care of your body, so I specially served you soup. You said that your body felt weak. It's just a few mouthfuls of wine, and you're already like this.

"Later, you should go to the pharmacy and buy some medicine to cure your hangover. After you eat it, I guarantee you'll feel much better. You could even do so much more than drink wine!"

After hearing this, Rosen could not help but laugh.

"Boss, don't tease me. I've already lived past that age. What more exciting things can I do?"

Rosen seemed to be very interested in this topic. Hearing Lorne's words, his eyes immediately lit up. Then, he winked and whispered to Lorne.

"Lorne, don't leave after dinner. I'll bring you to someplace exciting."

"I guess you're older, so you must know more than me, but I'll pass."

"Maybe I'm just showing off something exciting."

Rosen's face suddenly turned red. It was pure excitement.

"Boss, don't slander my innocence. I'm a clean person. I've never been to such a place."

Rosen scratched his head and spoke with some doubt.

"What place are you thinking of? I just want to suggest that we go to the hunting ground and ride horses. What are you thinking?"

"..."

"Lorne, my dear sweet innocent brother, please sit down and eat. I really don't want you to speak any further. Next time Charles comes, he can bring you to those kinds of places. At my age, I won't be able to stand being in those places.

"At most, I'll get excited enough in your shop and by then, you won't be able to run away."

As he spoke, Rosen even helped Lorne pull out a chair beside him.

Lorne did not dare to continue the conversation. Instead, he sat down and chatted with Rosen while eating.

"Rosen, did Charles think about what we spoke about last time?"

Rosen was stunned.

"Lorne, what are you talking about?"

Lorne slapped his thigh and spoke in an annoyed and frustrated tone.

"It's about asking Charles to wed his daughter to me. Why hasn't he talked to me about it yet? Look, my request has already been lowered by a lot.

"I said eight or ten, but now I only want one. Charles really doesn't care about the brotherhood code, doesn't he?

"How would this fare out, brother? He's acting like he can't even bear to part with one single good-looking daughter. It's really disappointing."

Rosen could not help but twitch the corner of his mouth. At the same time, he ridiculed Lorne in his heart.

'That's not how brothers work at all. How can a brother plot against someone else's daughter and want to marry his eldest niece?! You really are a f*cking top-notch expert. Your ego is at least as tall as a twelve-story building.'

Under the circumstances where he was completely unaware of the identities of King Kyle and the others in a way, he wanted to be the king's son-in-law.

Could this man not be any smarter!
