章 511: Talks With Seelima (Part-2)

Hearing Alexander's not-at-all-concerned answer, the Queen Mother understood that convincing Alexander to apply his expertise to develop Adhan would be a fool's errand.

Which she found to be a shame, as seeing how much he was able to transform the barren lands of Zanzan, she could only wonder how much he would be able to do to a resource and population-rich region like Adhan.

But since Alexander had very clearly said he was not interested, Seelima did not push him further.

You could lead a horse to water, but you could not make it drink it.

While Alexander made his thinking even clearer to the Queen Mother, saying, "To be honest, I do not mind if Pasha Farzah takes control of the court."

"In fact, as long as he keeps Ptolomy on the throne, I think that will be better for us."

"Because he is very unlikely to muck it up as Ptolomy could."

Alexander hid nothing of his preference on who he wanted to see running things.
