“A blank postcard.”

Five years ago in early spring in March, Renley left Hall's house and headed for New York, and embarked on his journey to pursue his dreams on the North American continent.

Although Lanley had announced her dream before and chose to take a leave of absence during her studies at Cambridge University and went to the Royal Academy of Arts and Drama in London to study, over the years, the disputes and suppression of the Hall family have occurred intermittently and repeatedly; no one expected Lanley to go to New York so resolutely, and then completely cut off the connection and rely on his own abilities to spread his reputation on that land.

Since then, George and Elizabeth have stopped all news about Renley, and the only time they informed of the ultimatum was rejected, and then they never contacted each other again.

The ups and downs of the years have been very ups and downs. The two sides have confronted each other many times in London, but have never really contacted each other. They seem to be strangers. After the banquet at the Earl of Oxford, the strength and weakness of both sides have changed. In order to maintain their dignity and dignity, George and Elizabeth even pretended that nothing had happened and lived a life of cover-up.

Five years later, in midsummer July, a blank postcard from Elizabeth broke the silence.

This is the first time in five years that Elizabeth has contacted Lanley on his own initiative. Although it is just a blank postcard and there is no further content, the action of breaking the deadlock is still counting. So, what does this mean?

It means that Elizabeth finally took the initiative to put down her figure? It means that the Hall family finally opened their arms? It means that the Hall family's deadlock that has lasted for many years has finally passed away?

Also, is this Elizabeth's own move, or does George know too? If George knew, then was there some turmoil in the Hall family? Or was George's attitude changed? If George didn't know, then what was Elizabeth's move hinting at?

But these issues are not the point, because things are not as simple as they seem. If things are so simple, then the hereditary aristocrats cannot be considered "hereditary" and can only be considered "noble". Only emerging elites and rising upstarts will so easily put down their own positions and integrate into mainstream society with the progress of the times and give up their persistence in self-esteem and pride, this is not that easy.

The meaning of "hereditary" is that the posture that has been settled over the years is fame and glory, and it is also tradition. Such posture will not be easily discarded even when death comes. It has even clamped its throat tightly like a shackle, but it still maintains its own dignity. This is true dignity, higher than wealth, higher than class, higher than status... and higher than life.

For ordinary people, this is meaningless stupidity; but for hereditary nobles, this is the meaning of their existence.

In other words, Elizabeth's blank postcard is definitely not that simple, so what's going on?

Arthur and Edith really knew their parents too much. They realized that things were not that simple, and their thoughts began to surge.

What is certain is that they have something to ask for.

Edith frowned, pulled the innocent collar of her clothes with some annoyance, scratched her head hard, and her messy short hair became more and more like a bird's nest. "Is it Elve?" she said guessingly. She had just flew over from London, and the news about Elve was updated. "She has officially moved out, and... she said that she has no interest in marriage, and it is good to date, although she has been promoted now, and she has more surgery, and even has no date time..."

"Are you talking about Elve Hall?" Arthur did not hide his surprise. Elve, who had always claimed to inherit the glory of hereditary nobles, actually declared single so boldly and bravely? Such a sharp contrast made Arthur unable to keep up, "Are you sure it is the Elve we are familiar with?" The Elve, who was hailed as a template printed by Elizabeth?

Edith shrugged, "Who knows what's true or not? Maybe she's just kidding."

"Elv won't joke." Lanli said calmly, with the corner of her mouth rising. Although he had just heard of Elv's decision for the first time, he was not surprised. "You know, Elv is the most rational. She will make rational judgments and then execute them without hesitation. This was the case before, and now it is the case."

Lanley, Arthur and Edith did not know that there was a brief confrontation between Elves, George and Elizabeth at the Duke of Oxford. From then on, Elves realized that the glory and glory of the "hereditary Baron Hall" family had reached the end of destruction.

Whether in the past or now, Elve made a series of choices to maintain the reputation and glory of the Hall family, and never missed them. But the difference is that in the past, this glory belonged to George Hall; now, this glory belonged to Renli Hall, so Elve changed his strategy, but his core purpose has never changed.

Those changes and breakthroughs were not for herself, but for obeying Renly's choices, so that the children of the Hall family had their own place in all fields. Even those actions that enriched their personalities were deliberately managed in Elve.

Of course, compared to the past, Elf now can stick to herself more boldly and bravely. This is the freedom given to her under the halo of "Ranley Hall". It can be regarded as a little added benefit, but for Elf, it is just the icing on the cake, not the real core soul.

Elve is still that Elve. She is most similar to Elizabeth, but not Elizabeth but Elizabeth after the updated version.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a little creepy, but after savoring it carefully, Arthur and Edith both reacted, understood the profound meaning of Renli's words, and the strange actions were explained. Elves still had not changed. Even though the other three siblings had changed one after another, she was still the only existence that adhered to the meaning and weight of the surname "Hal". In fact, Elves was the best heir to the hereditary baron.

After reacting, Arthur and Edith looked at Renly again with contempt.

Sure enough, the Hall family can really compete with each other with the cold-blooded animal Elve and the paranoid freak of Renly. Although they always faced each other in tit-for-tat and were out of place, they were actually the same stubborn and strong, and they refused to change and compromise, and almost cruelly insisted on their beliefs. As for the two innocent little lambs, they were victims, and could only hide in the corner and shivered. They were really in tears and had no way to ask for help.

If it was because of Elve that the Hall family became the topic of conversation in the upper class in London again, Elizabeth chose to bow to Lanley and try to make good friends with the real people in the Hall family. After all, Elizabeth had no way to explain to other people the changes in the Hall family and the changes in Elve; and, coupled with the influence of Sisyphus Pictures, it would be even more likely.

Don't forget one thing

"Hall Ventures?" Arthur then thought about it. In March, Renley returned to London to boost investment for Sisyphus Films and Hall Ventures, which caused a storm in the upper class:

It was not until this time that the elites truly realized that the youngest son of the Hall family was not not socializing but disdainful. When Lan Li really put on his posture, he could be very convincing and was completely at ease in social occasions. His background and posture were completely unscrupulous, and the charm revealed between chatting and laughing was even more fascinating.

In just under three weeks, "Lanli Hall" conquered the upper class of London with its charm. Some even half-jokingly joked that Lanli was "Count of Monte Cristo" who disappeared many years ago and conquered everyone in the upper class with its own conversation and charm, but the real purpose in his heart was... revenge.

No matter how much the joke is, it can be seen from the side that Lan Li easily gained the recognition of those picky nobles.

Although Hall Venture Capital has not announced the amount of the first round of financing, word of mouth has been passed on, many people have expressed great interest and are willing to believe in the "Ranley Hall" sign and try to change their investment direction. The most prominent sign is that Alexander Hamilton also decided to invest, and the first move was 50 million pounds. Additional investments may be made in the future, showing the courage and domineering of the Duke of Hamilton.

Not to mention that Sisyphus Films is an investment of Andre Hamilton. As we all know, Alexander Hamilton is the core figure of the entire Duke family. Although he does not have the title of successor to the Duke, he now has mastered all the industries of the Hamilton family. His wise and calm style has been unanimously recognized. He will never invest at will because of Andre's relationship. The real reason may only be that Renli convinced him.

For 50 million pounds, this is what Alexander thinks about the prospects of Sisyphus Pictures.

From Hall Venture Capital to Sisyphus Pictures, and then to the special time when the global box office of "Interstellar" exploded, Arthur's expression became slightly stiff, "Is it because of Sisyphus Pictures? I mean, did George and Elizabeth also want to participate?"

For George and Elizabeth, they both need to find more customers who are willing to trust them and invest in their senior customers. Now Sisyphus Films and Renly Hall have become popular topics in the London Financial District. If they can make full use of this connection, the profit will definitely not be a little bit. More importantly, such huge profits and such significant connections are enough to make George and Elizabeth let go of their own figures.

If this is true, then it is really... so shameless!
