Marquis of Brecken had not expected Sean to be so blunt, calling him out on the spot.
After being stunned for a while, the Marquis of Brecken came back to his senses and hastily said, "Councilor Sean, no matter what benefits the Fourth Prince has promised you, I believe the Great Prince can offer you better ones."
"Better ones..."
Sean sat by the sunlit window, his body bathed in sunlight, a smile forming on his lips: "It seems you have misunderstood something."
"Misunderstood?"
"The reason the Western Island Councilors support Fourth Prince Arthur rather than the Great Prince or the Second Prince is not overly complicated."
After a pause, Sean suddenly asked, "Do you still remember the great famine that happened ten years ago?"
The Great Famine of West Island, a horrific disaster that nearly halved the West Islander population, had intense political undercurrents behind it.
