Evan’s worries are actually very necessary.
In the current situation, although Duke Wilson still has some feelings for him, according to the Duke’s current situation, the communication between the two of them may become very difficult.
If it really goes on like this, then he is afraid that things will develop in an unpredictable direction.

The next day, Duke Wilson ordered the delivery of a train ticket for the trip to London three days later, in first-class carriages.

Evan looked at the ticket and squinted his eyes.
Duke Wilson has always done things so neatly, but he was a little dazed at this time.
Is it really appropriate to go to London by himself? He had no idea what his titular father and brother were planning, so he has to be prepared now.

Evan has been carefully recalling bits and pieces about his father in the following days.
In fact, this is not a very complicated project.
There were only a handful of connections between the two of them, and most were through letters.
The letters have been well preserved by the original owner.

Evan looked at the carefully preserved letters, and his mood was a little complicated.
The original owner was also a poor person in this matter.
He had never had family love and the only love he had was also destroyed by his own hands.
He was so hateful and selfish, such a person is really too complicated and Evan can’t see through his heart.

Three days passed by in a flash and by the time Evan realized it, he had already boarded the carriage sent by the duke to pick him up and was on his way towards the Delanlier train station.

Duke Wilson and Lord Orlam had already arrived at the train station early, sitting in the carriage while waiting for Evan’s arrival.

Looking at the slightly impetuous Duke Wilson, Lord Orlam’s expression was very delicate.
He had been vigorously trying to invite Duke Wilson to go to London before but the Duke had refused and he had already given up.
But when the Duke returned from the church the next day, he suddenly agreed to go to London, but he wanted to go with a priest.

This surprised Lord Orlam.
He had seen the priest before.
He had sat next to Duke Wilson at the banquet before.
He was a very handsome and very young priest.
He had only thought that the priest was Duke Wilson’s friend before, but looking at the Duke’s appearance at this time, he thinks that there are other reasons.

“Lord Duke?” Lord Orlam suddenly said, “It’s really great that you can go to London this time.”

Duke Wilson frowned slightly, “The situation in London is very complicated now.
I’m afraid my going there now will make the situation in London more complicated.”

Lord Orlam smiled at the Duke’s concern and said, “You are too worried.
Now, the Duke of Rand will see you as a thorn in the eye no matter what.
The Prince’s favor will only aggravate the hatred of the Duke of Rand.
You have been staying in Delanlier and this place is very beautiful, but your army is not here.
If the Duke of Rand does something extreme, I’m afraid that far waters can’t save a nearby fire.
But if you stay in London, then the Duke of Rand will not dare to act rashly, after all, Prince George will be there and your army is stationed near London.”

Duke Wilson frowned slightly, and said in disbelief, “Will Rand be so crazy?”

Duke Wilson’s impression of Duke Rand was still that of the arrogant young man from a few years ago.
He couldn’t believe that he would suddenly become the person Lord Orlam just described.
After all, in his memory, Rand had no such courage.

“You’ve been in Delanlier for the past few years so you may not know the current Duke of Rand.” Lord Orlam smiled bitterly, “Ever since Prince George became the crown prince, the Duke of Rand has been crazy.
Especially after your relationship with Prince George improved, the Duke of Rand became even more unreasonable and the current Duke of Rand is no longer the Duke of Rand he used to be.”

Duke Wilson’s frown deepened.
Since Prince George became the crown prince, he has left London and has not been active in London.
On the one hand, it is because of his special status and on the other hand, it is because, as the aging King’s cousin, he does not want to be in contact with him too much, but now it seems that his approach was wrong.
Just like now, his cognition of the current Duke of Rand is still based on the impression he has from a few years ago and the description of the spies on paper.

Duke Wilson was lost in thought, so it seems that he has to think again about the situation in London.

It’s just that Duke Wilson couldn’t think any more, when the coachman’s voice suddenly came from outside the carriage, “Lord Duke, the Reverend is here.”

Duke Wilson’s expression became shocked, and he forgot everything he was thinking about in an instant.

“Then…then let’s get on the train first, the train will leave soon ’” Duke Wilson pursed his lips, his expression a little nervous.

Lord Orlam gave Duke Wilson a strange look and nodded, “Okay.”

Duke Wilson stepped out of the carriage first.
As soon as he got off the carriage, he saw Evan standing not far away, bowing his head slightly, looking at his feet.

“Lord Duke.” Evan looked up, immediately saw Duke Wilson and greeted the Duke with a smile.

Duke Wilson was still feeling a little uncomfortable at this time.
He nodded stiffly as he didn’t know what to say.
The person in front of him has always had the purest appearance in his heart, but this person had encountered that sort of thing with him.
The shameful reaction made him hate his dirty thoughts from the bottom of his heart.

Duke Wilson’s embarrassment didn’t last long, and Lord Orlam also stepped forward and smiled at Evan, “Hello, Reverend.”

Evan frowned slightly at Duke Wilson’s reaction, but immediately recovered.
After changing his original expression, he smiled at Lord Oram, “Lord.”

Evan and Lord Oram were not familiar with each other, so he didn’t have anything to say and just tried to be polite.

However, Lord Orlam doesn’t think so.
In his opinion, Evan is someone that Duke Wilson attaches great importance to.
They are now trying to win over Duke Wilson.
To have such a person who has such a great influence on Duke Wilson is absolutely something that cannot be ignored.

“It’s really nice to be able to go to London with you.
I heard Duke Wilson once said that you are a very noble gentleman.
It’s really nice to meet you.” Lord Orlam complimented tentatively.

Evan raised his eyebrows slightly, this Lord, compared to the first time they met, was a little too warm at this time.

“You are too polite.” Evan’s expression was still calm, “It is my honor to go to London with you and the Duke.”

Calm and cautious, this person is definitely not easy to deal with, Lord Orlam thought as he made a preliminary judgment.

And Duke Wilson was already feeling a little impatient at this time and immediately said, “The train is about to leave, let’s get on the train quickly.”

He immediately turned and walked towards the station.
Watching Evan and Orlam talking amiably, his heart felt uncomfortable.

Evan immediately followed the Duke’s footsteps and walked inside, he asked as he walked, “Isn’t Lord Edward here? Is it okay to let him stay here alone?”

Duke Wilson heard this question.
At the time, his first reaction was to say that Edward would not come, but he suddenly remembered what Orlam had said just now and his thoughts changed, so he said, “Edward will come later.
Today he is not in good health, he feels a little uncomfortable, but Butler Chris will come with him later.”

Duke Wilson said while looking at Butler Chris and Butler Chris immediately nodded slightly.

After Duke Wilson said this, Lord Orlam couldn’t help raising his eyebrows.
He had suggested that Lord Edward should come with them before, but the Duke refused and now he suddenly changed his words.
It’s obvious that it has something to do with what the Reverend said just now.

“It’s great to go there with Lord Edward.
Prince George once told me before that he misses the days with you in London very much and is still thinking of Lord Edward, who was just born when you left.
He’ll be very happy to have you both back.” Lord Orlam smiled as if he didn’t realize anything.

Duke Wilson raised a corner of his lips.
To be honest, he was not very kind to his nephew who is only three years younger than him.
But at this point, among all the people who are eligible to inherit the throne, this nephew is the only one who is still sensible.

The three quickly entered the train station.
Duke Wilson has a specially reserved carriage.
This is the local tribute to Duke Wilson from the people of Delanlier.
Because of the existence of Duke Wilson, there will be this train station.
It is impossible for a small place like Delanlier to have a train station.

It didn’t take long for the three of them to get on the train, and the train started.
This car is still different from the first class that Evan usually sits in.
Of course, the luxury is a lot more luxurious, but basically there is not much difference.
Duke Wilson is a low-key person after all.

After the train started, there was a moment of silence in the carriage.
Duke Wilson kept looking out the window without looking at anyone and without any expression.
Evan hesitated, wanted to say something but didn’t know what to say.
Lord Orlam looked at the two with an unpredictable expression, his thoughts racing.

These two people are by no means as simple and absolute as they seem, but what the relationship between them is, is hard to say.
At the previous meeting, the atmosphere between the two people was not so rigid, but it seemed that it had started from the next day.
After the Reverend left, the two people met again and it became such a scene.

What the hell happened that night? Lord Orlam was very curious.

Evan also noticed Lord Orlam’s observation, and his heart moved slightly.
He didn’t dare to underestimate the observation power of this lord.
It can be said that, in the original book, the reason Prince George was able to ascend to the throne has to do with him, the power of this lord should not be underestimated.

But at this time, Evan didn’t want Lord Orlam to see through anything, so in order to ease the atmosphere, he immediately said, “Lord Orlam, how do you feel about your trip to Delanlier this time?”

Evan’s sudden speech surprised Lord Orlam, and he smiled, “Delanlier is a very beautiful place, but now the most beautiful place should be London.
The maple leaves in Hyde Park are so beautiful, people are fascinated by it.
And the ladies during the social season are an even more beautiful scenery.
I believe that the Jedi will not let you down.” (??)

Lord Orlam’s pun made the two people in the carriage turn their attention to him.
