I Got on a Ghost Ship By Mistake and Was Forced To Be the Captain Chapter 174

Chapter 174 Father

"Mr. Capet, your arm is very stiff, you might as well relax a bit, grab my hand and follow the rhythm."

"My pleasure."

"You look very tired, didn't you sleep last night?"

"Maybe I've been a little tired lately, but that's okay."

"Forward, sideways, feet together, and then form a circle, pay attention to the changes between the steps, very good, obviously improved compared to just now, really incredible."

"Heh, I've always been a quick learner."

"God is above, if it is not for the sake of being stepped on seven feet by you, I completely agree with you."

The second floor of the palace building, the ball center.

Tu Fu, who was wearing a handsome evening gown, held a pair of delicate and soft palms with both hands, interspersed with his fingers.

An indescribably wonderful feeling rose in Tu Fu's heart.

Although Miss Weimar was wearing a pair of lace gloves, it was difficult to block the strange emotions during physical contact.

On the dance floor, in a dance piece called "Fate", young men and women moved happily in the elegant music, and the guests in the crowd twisted their limbs, feeling the temperature of the opposite **** on the other side of the palm.

With such close contact, the scent of perfume emitted from each other's bodies fell into the partner's nasal cavity without reservation.

The ambiguous atmosphere is everywhere...except for Tu Fu's group.

At the beginning of the ball, the generous Miss Weimar sent him an invitation.

A pair of handsome men and beautiful women stepped forward at the same time, in the most conspicuous place at the dance party... embarrassing.

He probably really has no talent for dancing, even under the guidance of Elena, he always stepped on each other inadvertently.

A pair of pure white high boots are now covered by several large footprints.

Kelan, who has been witnessing the battle here, couldn't help but want to laugh a few times. He understood the reason Tu Fu just asked. No wonder this guy resisted so much. It's not without reason.

The other young princes and aristocrats on the dance floor couldn't help but feel relieved after seeing this funny scene like a circus after the early worries.

Because they really didn't believe that Miss Weimar would have a good impression of such a rude, awkward, and not well-educated man.

"I'd rather fight with Elf Elder now."

If he had to use a certain food to describe himself now, Tu Fu's evaluation is a frozen sausage, and his uncoordinated limbs make him unable to walk.

I can only close my eyes tightly, otherwise I will hardly be able to see myself.

Finally, I have come across a field that I have never touched in this life plus the last life, so naturally I don't need any cleverness to steal and play tricks.

Fortunately, Miss Weimar didn't care about it, otherwise, it would have been a blessing not to be kicked out of the banquet for a dance idiot like him who can't even learn to walk.

"Sorry to disappoint you."

"Don't worry about it. In fact, you dance pretty well. You have a good posture. It's very... very... There is still a lot of room for improvement."

Elena Weimar finally found a suitable neutral word from the thesaurus after thinking for a long time to comfort the disabled Tu Fu.

"Is this the strength of the literature major?" The corner of the latter's mouth twitched when he heard this, and he smiled.

"I mean, you can be as casual as possible, and don't care too much about these etiquettes. At least I like to dance with people I know more than other people here."

Eileen was actually not that happy on the day of her coming-of-age ceremony, and there was deep sadness in her eyes.

Due to the arrival of the guests, his father's face, and even His Majesty's wearing the crown himself, he could only hide his sadness with a smile and make himself look happy.

"What's the name of that poem?"

"Poetry?"

"The night gave me black eyes, but I used them to find the light."

"That song, I named it "One Generation"."

"The name of the poem worthy of praise, a generation, it entrusts the ideals and aspirations of a generation, bravely pursue it, right?"

Looking at Elena's expectant eyes, Tu Fu praised her reading comprehension and nodded affirmatively.

No matter what stupid things the original author did later, when he wrote this poem, he must have had this idea.

He can now probably understand why Miss Weimar is always immersed in some ancient poems and literary works.

Because the reality is always unsatisfactory and unable to resist fate, we can only pin it on other things.

So Eileen always stays alone. She is the daughter of a duke but she doesn't have many friends, and she doesn't like excessive communication, until she waits for the day when she will be given away as a gift.

"Miss Weimar, I heard that you are the Duke's most beloved daughter. In fact, I think you should take the initiative to raise your own thoughts and have a deep talk. Mr. Duke should think about it."

Tu Fu gave her an idea.

"It won't work, I'm the last unmarried member of the Weimar family, and I've never been able to do whatever I want.

The children of the Weimar family should be considerate of their elders in everything they say and do. "

Elena Weimar's tone was not firm, and she couldn't help herself.

If what Kelan had to face was the fear of his father, then what Elena Weimar had to face was fate,

The fate of the individual, the fate of the family, and even the fate of the country will rest on her shoulders as the wind and rain change.

Since her birth in the Weimar family, she has influenced the fate of many people, the fate of thousands of people in several countries.

You shouldn't be so selfish.

"It seems that it is not easy to be a kid from a rich family."

Tu Fu feels more and more that being a middle class is definitely the best choice.

Although he felt sorry for the other party, Tu Fu knew very well that in this world, if he wanted to resolve such a conflict, he had to move to the highest level, the level of King William II and Prime Minister Sorens, and it was definitely not an easy task in practice.

In this **** era, no matter how big or small the fate of people is, they cannot control themselves.

The arrival of His Majesty the King undoubtedly caused some waves.

He was very neatly dressed, with his arms placed on one side of the main seat to line his head, and William II looked casually at the dance floor.

Looking at those courtiers who were afraid of him, there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and he didn't speak.

Except Thilo, he tasted a roast duck with great appetite, and even tore it with his hands. Such a rude behavior is simply out of place in the court.

The discomfort in his bones made him feel unspeakably uncomfortable, and the tone of his mouth was neither salty nor bland,

"Mr. Prime Minister, should we pay attention to our image when dining, after all, this is a coming-of-age ceremony for the daughter of the Weimar family."

"I was indeed rude."

Tillo wiped his fingers with a paper towel and touched the scar on his face when he smiled, "Does Your Majesty have anything to say?"

"Not counting as an explanation, how is the progress of the social reform law?"

"The outline and content have been fully improved and are ready to be launched at any time.

And there are many voices in the House blocking the enactment of this law, but I think they will all agree in the end.

The only problem is that there is no more money in the treasury, which is troublesome. "

When Prime Minister Sorens talked about this matter, he smiled faintly.

The essence of social security is secondary distribution, and it can only be effective if you have a solid family background and long-term investment.

Hearing such a report, William II just hummed lightly, and did not make a statement, and it was impossible to see whether his face was angry or sad.

Currently, the major parts of the national treasury's annual expenditure are in the military, education, and heavy industry sectors, and it is impossible to withdraw funds from them.

As for another important expenditure, it is the perpetual motion machine that he has been thinking about. Too much cost has been invested in this project in the early stage, and it must not be stopped halfway.

No one is allowed to touch the money.

A round of sharp confrontation passed, and no one expressed their opinion. The cake is so big, with military and educational technology each getting a big share.

Tillo transferred part of the new law to the people's livelihood. It is easy to talk about it, but if you move other expenditures, someone will come to you desperately.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Sorens."

While they were fighting, a gentle word temporarily interrupted their conversation.

Compared to the fancy dresses of the princes present, the Duke of Weimar's dress is quite simple, and he seems to always have a smile on his face, making it hard to hate.

"You're here. The Prime Minister and I are discussing something, why don't you make an evaluation." The corners of William II's mouth raised, and his tone was very brisk.

"I think the research on perpetual motion machines should be put at the forefront, and great breakthroughs have been made. I don't think it will take too long for the investment in these years to be gradually recovered.

But Mr. Prime Minister believes that improving people's livelihood is more important, but I think the life of the people of Baia is good enough.

Even if there are some deficiencies, when the perpetual motion machine is successfully developed, people will be able to make up for it immediately, so what do you think? "

Thilo Thorens looked stern, but turned his gaze around.

This question is also a win-win. The most powerful Weimar family in the country, their wealth and network support can speed up the promotion of a certain party's idea.

If he wants to join a side, he will choose the priority focus that that side calls out.

After hearing the question, the Duke of Weimar was extremely calm. From his lake-like eyes, he was not surprised that they would ask this matter, and his face still had a smiling expression.

"Actually, in my opinion, the long-term investment in perpetual motion machines and the reform of social welfare are both very wise national policies for Baia, and they will have a profound impact on this country. Unfortunately, they have to be distinguished."

The Duke of Weimar was slightly regretful when he spoke, but he was also impeccable.

At least not to offend these two on the bright side.

"And this question was too hasty, I couldn't think it through for a while, and now I am fully focused on Elena.

For me, seeing her happy is the happiest thing for me. "

Tilo rubbed his chin to ponder his inner language, "Miss Weimar is still young, and she is in Miska with my ineffective son, at least for now, she doesn't have to think about other things at all, and the future should be decided by you, Duke. .”

William II's eyes flashed a little displeasure, he didn't like to bargain with anyone,

"Since the coming-of-age ceremony has begun, no matter who it is, it should shoulder the responsibility of a national citizen.

It is precisely because everyone is like this that there is the current Baia, the great Baia Kingdom. "

"It seems that in terms of concept, I agree with Mr. Prime Minister."

The Duke of Weimar showed a suitable smile on his face, and said seriously with nostalgia: "Eileen's mother passed away after giving birth to her, and she was very lonely since she was a child.

I am usually busy with things. This child has lived a lonely and sensible life since she was a child. Even if she was wronged sometimes, she would not tell me about it. She was afraid that I would be distracted by her affairs, so she always suffered the wronged silently. "

"so?"

"I will try my best to protect her ideas, and I don't want to force her to do something she doesn't want to do. I also ask Your Majesty and Mr. Prime Minister to understand my feelings."

What the Duke of Weimar meant is obvious enough, this is a deal.

One end of the scale is the support of the entire Weimar family, unimaginable wealth, connections, and the century-old accumulation of the big family.

Ling the other end is just the fate of an insignificant little girl.

It makes the deal look, even ironic.

"I thought you, like the Duke of Weimar, should worry about major political affairs in this country."

William II's tone was playful.

The latter's head was slightly lowered in front of the king, "Please forgive me, because there is another identity before the title of Duke."

"What weightier identity can there be?"

"A father."
