The same seasons show completely different appearances in different places.

In early February, the weather was green everywhere in the Principal of Stantin, and the warm sun and breeze were everywhere. Although it was no longer snowing in Bonta, it still had a hint of coldness.

However, on the northern border of the Kingdom of Lampari, it was filled with wind and snow, and the cold winter was shining.

On a day when it was still snowing heavily, Sevini met Viscount Leslie in a town north army outpost somewhere bordering the Kingdom of Lampari and Sach.

When he first saw Viscount Leslie, Sevini almost couldn't recognize him.

Viscount Leslie has almost completely changed his appearance, whether compared to when he first met him in Anweimar City or when he saw him again in Bonta City.

Viscount Leslie's face is full of stubble with uneven faces, and his skin is rough and dark, almost no different from the rough men in the army that Sevini saw when he visited Zhenbei Army this time. There is no clean, handsome and handsome appearance of a noble young man before.

"Vissole Leslie, it seems that your life here is very hard." Sewini couldn't help but say.

Viscount Leslie smiled slightly.

Compared to before, the only thing that has not changed is probably his smile.

Although his appearance became rough, when he smiled, he still revealed his unique calm and composed temperament from a large aristocratic family as before.

"It's not hard or hard. My life is just a very ordinary soldier's life. And I'm still under special care after all. Relatively speaking, my conditions here are far better than many of my brothers in the army."

Sevini immediately fell silent. After a while, he sighed softly.

"Actually, both my father and I are very clear. The soldiers in the army have very poor conditions and need to improve. But you should be very clear about the finances of the kingdom now. No matter how anxious the father is, he really can't afford to change this situation."

"I know this very well, so I am not complaining for my brothers, but describing a fact to you." Viscount Leslie said seriously: "My Queen, I have to tell you clearly that the situation in the north is already very serious. Before the beginning of winter, the bastards of the Sak Kingdom began to launch a fierce offensive. Until now, they have not stopped completely. The Zhenbei Army has been fighting for so many days in a row, but in fact it has been very serious. If the military headquarters had not sent a large number of armor and weapons last time, they would have been unable to hold on."

Speaking of this, Viscount Leslie paused, and the expression on his face became a little weird.

"Your Highness, I have always had a question. Since the military headquarters has no money, what conditions will it take to satisfy that greedy guy Xu Yi this time?"

Hearing the name "Xu Yi", Sevini showed a heartfelt smile on his face, and he shook his head gently and said, "President Xu is not a greedy person. He has always told me that what he most expects is the development of the entire magic industry, which requires a stable and healthy environment. Now the environment in the Kingdom of Lampari is not ideal, so he must give priority to supporting the Kingdom to become stronger and stable. This time, the Military Affairs Department and the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce cooperated to establish an arsenal. He paid a lot for this, but he has not asked for any reward."

"No, I know him, and he will never fail to ask for rewards. But you may not be able to provide him with the rewards he wants for the time being, so you just keep the accounts temporarily. When he really asks for these rewards in the future, I don't think you can afford it."

"I don't agree." Sewini shook his head. "In fact, I have been in contact with him more time and times than you, and I know him better than you. Although he has always emphasized that he is a businessman, and he always values ​​his own interests. But in fact, the interests he values ​​are different from all other merchants. Other merchants only value immediate benefits, and the most direct thing is to obtain gold coins. However, Xu Yi values ​​the most, far longer and greater than all merchants, and even more than everyone. Even if he will ask for rewards at that time, I think I will definitely be willing to pay for him these returns."

Viscount Leslie looked at Sevini with a firm look in surprise, thought for a while, and suddenly asked, "What if the reward he asked for is you?"

Sewini was stunned and then frowned: "What you mean is to let me marry him? No, this is impossible. Xu Yi and Steele have a very deep relationship. Without the room for others to intervene, he would not be able to make such a request."

"That's not necessarily." Viscount Leslie shook his head slowly. "His Highness, if you can eventually inherit the throne and become Her Majesty the Queen of our Lampari Kingdom, then Xu Yi will combine with you and will directly have the most powerful backing in the kingdom. In this way, it will be of extremely important help to realize his ideals. If he is really a businessman, such a transaction should definitely be accepted."

"I said that Xu Yi is not such a shallow businessman." Sewini looked at Viscount Leslie with a serious expression: "Visual Leslie, Xu Yi has always told me that you helped him a lot when the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce was first established, and you are the one who can understand his ideas. He has always regarded you as a friend in his heart. Since he regards you as a friend, then I hope you don't make malicious speculations about him here."

Viscount Leslie smiled slightly: "This is not a malicious speculation, it is just a very rational inference. In addition... Your Highness, you didn't seem to deny the possibility of marrying him just now? Do you actually mean this way?"

A hint of blush flashed across Sewini's face, and immediately returned to normal. He looked at Viscount Leslie calmly and asked, "Are you asking this question seriously?"

Viscount Leslie nodded: "I am serious. Since Xu Yi regards me as his friend, then as a friend, I should help him figure out this very important issue for him."

Sevini looked at Viscount Leslie for a moment, exhaled a gentle breath, and replied calmly: "Then I will answer you, yes. Although according to the will of the father, he hopes that I can combine with the descendants of a certain noble family and strengthen the power of the royal family. Among these candidates, the father has actually considered the first candidate, Viscount Leslie."

Viscount Leslie smiled slightly: "This is my honor."

"But I don't agree with my father's idea." Sewini shook his head. "In the kingdom, including your Stark family, every big family has its own considerations. I will not really make this family completely biased towards the royal family just because I have a combination with the descendants of any great noble. Am I right? Viscount Leslie?"

"Visually right." Viscount Leslie gently patted his hands to express his appreciation. "My Queen, I have to say that you have a thorough understanding of your own. Any great nobleman has his own family, so the priority will be the interests of his own family. In fact, even if it is a royal family, it is just the strongest noble family in the kingdom. Who do you marry with, at most, is only a symbolic meaning and does not have much practical significance. Because what can truly allow the two families to cooperate is always the common interests of both parties."

"So, my marriage cannot really determine anything. It is better to marry a more ordinary person than to marry a descendant of a large noble family like you."

"For example, Xu Yi?" Viscount Leslie asked immediately.

Sevini couldn't help but close his eyes and took a breath, then opened his eyes, remained calm, and nodded.

"Yes. Although Xu Yi has now obtained the baron, in fact, no one will regard him as a nobleman. His identity can only be regarded as an ordinary person. But the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce he owns is not ordinary at all. I can even be sure. If the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce can really continue to develop like this, it will eventually change the entire Synez continent as he said."

"I'm very sure of this, too." Viscount Leslie nodded in agreement.

"So if I could combine with him and let the power of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce be used by the royal family, it would only help the royal family more than any other family. In comparison, this is actually a better choice."

Viscount Leslie pondered for a moment and nodded: "Your Highness, your analysis is correct. But I think you ignore a very important issue. The combination of yours and Xu Yi has helped the royal family very much, but have you considered your own feelings? Are you... willing to combine with Xu Yi?"

Hearing this question, Sevini could no longer maintain the calmness on his face, and a blush appeared on his cheeks.

After a while, she nodded gently and said, "I think... I am willing. Xu Yi is funny, calm and generous. I have been with him for a long time. As long as I am by his side, I will feel relaxed, and I will always be infected by his strong self-confidence and be full of confidence in the future. I believe that if I can unite with him, I should live much happier in the future than I am now."

Viscount Leslie just asked casually, but he didn't expect that Sevini would give such a positive answer. He couldn't help but look at Sevini blankly, with a complicated expression.

After the two were silent for a long time, Viscount Leslie sighed and shook his head with a wry smile: "My Queen, I suddenly began to sympathize with you. As you are, it was impossible to find a husband who is truly suitable for you and will be recognized by you. Now, a Xu Yi finally appeared. If you really want to, I think it is still very likely that he will be able to grab him. But I know, you will never compete with Miss Steele, right?"

Sevini sighed softly, shook his head, looked at the wind and snow in the distance, thought quietly for a while, and then turned around to look at Viscount Leslie.

"Everyone has something that he insists on and is unwilling to change. Xu Yi will not change his feelings for Miss Steele just because of me, just as if you would rather go against the interests of your family than insist on returning the shares to Xu Yi. Am I right?"

Viscount Leslie smiled bitterly again: "It's right, so I'm now exiled by my family to this bitter and cold border. I miss the comfortable life in the city every day when I watch the wind and snow."

Sevini smiled slightly: "This is also another kind of life test, right? When you return to Anweimar or Bonta City, I think those noble ladies and ladies will definitely want to listen to you tell them about your thrilling life here."

Viscount Leslie shrugged: "I'm not sure if I can still maintain the handsome face when I leave here."

Sewini and Viscount Leslie looked at each other, and at the same time they couldn't help laughing and laughed loudly.

The laughter instantly traveled through the endless wind and snow, spreading to all directions from afar. (To be continued...)
