Marquis Voz Pedro did not leave the Lion Castle after talking to Count McGonagall Tano, and went alone to meet the young Emperor after the nobles had left.

He knew that the most fundamental factor in the continued existence of Duke Niko's cabinet was the emperor's opinion, and he knew better that the young emperor on the golden throne was still hesitating at this moment.

And hesitation means opportunity.

And he is here to fight for this opportunity, and at the same time help the emperor to pay attention!

...

In the private living room of the Emperor of Lion Castle, the surrounding walls and the dense magic lamps on the white jade pillars made the entire hall a little dazzling. Instead of sitting on the throne of the Emperor on the high platform, Sinda sat languidly on a wooden chair in the center of the hall in his pure white aristocratic attire, behind him in knightly armor.

Marquis Woz-Pedro entered the hall and was blinded by the flickering magic lamps in the hall, it wasn't the first time he had entered the hall, but every time he entered, he couldn't get used to the light. Because the corridors inside and outside the hall are designed to be very dark, and this place is so bright, the transition between light and darkness makes people subconsciously close their eyes and forget the idea of peeking into the secrets of this place.

"Step... "Woz-Pedro walked down the wide, neat passage between the two rows of seats in the hall with a standard aristocratic stride, and he walked fast, knowing that when he walked a distance, the light would dim.

"You're familiar with this place, Marquis. Sinda's voice seemed to come from the sky.

Woz-Pedro subconsciously stopped when he heard this voice, the light was not so strong at the moment, the first thing he saw was the knight's armor shining in the white light, he immediately looked away and looked at the young man in the white robe who was close to the knight's armor.

The young man was looking at him, too.

The two of them looked at each other...

After a brief silence, Woz-Pedro immediately stepped forward and paid his respects to the Emperor with the most solemn audience two meters away from Emperor Sinda.

"Poof... Hahaha!" Zinda burst out laughing.

"Hahaha!" Marquis Woz-Pedro immediately laughed, he laughed like an idiot at the moment.

But just as the Marquis of Woz-Pedro was laughing, Sinda Danediv's laughter came to an abrupt end, and when Woz-Pedro was embarrassed, the Emperor asked, "Do you know what I'm laughing at?"

Woz-Pedro's eyes were smiling, and he said in the most humble tone: "You must have met something happy, and it is my pleasure to be able to share your pleasure, Your Majesty." ”

"It's tiring for you to stay in this position. Sinda couldn't help but smile and pointed to the couch next to him, "Come and sit!"

"It's a real pleasure. The fat on Woz Pedro's face shook as he spoke, looking particularly funny.

"Aren't you tired of talking like this?" said Sinda, staring sideways at Woz Pedro's fat face, with a smile on her face, "Marquis, although I am young, I am not stupid, nor am I a child... If you're going to coax me to be a kid on the spot, you can leave now. ”

"Your Majesty, your words have made me feel ashamed. Woz Pedro, who had just taken a step forward and was about to sit down, stopped the pace, "The Pedro family has been following the Danediv family in their battles since the nomadic period of mankind, and our loyalty is not comparable to that of other nobles, and everything I do and say comes from my heart. ”

"All right, Marquis. Sinda pointed to the couch next to him again, "Come and sit." With that, he turned his stiff wrist and continued, "I like to go straight, so just say what you mean." ”

"I'm here for the Kwyn Town Trade District. Woz-Pedro spoke in a very sincere tone.

"Oh?" Prince Sinda asked, a little surprised, but not on the surface, "As far as I know, the Kwyn Town Trade Zone has developed quite smoothly since its establishment in the first two months, and just two months of transaction taxes are enough for the expenses of a legion on the front. He asked, "Is there something wrong with the trade zone right now?"

The young emperor suddenly laughed again, "That must be a big problem, right?"

Woz Pedro smiled along with it, "The establishment of the Kwyn Town Trade Zone is the wisest decision the Cabinet has made in years. He commented pertinently: "According to the statistics of the Imperial Treasury, if the current development trend continues, the trade district of Kwyn Town will hopefully independently bear all the military expenses required for the front line of Tyre Town in the next year." ”

"That's good news!" Sinda nodded noncommittally and asked, "So, what do you want to talk about in the trade zone?"

"The trade zone is the right decision, it can not only replenish the military expenses and materials needed for the war ahead, but also revive the trade economy that was originally stopped after the empire fell into the war..."Woz-Pedro continued to praise the role and effect of the trade zone, and in the middle of his words, he gently stroked his highland fragrant oil beard with his fingers, and suddenly changed his words: "But soon, the trade in the trade zone will come to a standstill." ”

Sinda Danediv was stunned when he heard this, he glanced at Sir Samp Reggie next to him, and when the other party shook his head to indicate that he had not received the relevant notice, the young emperor frowned, and looked at Woz Pedro with some displeasure and said: "Marquis, I hope you can know what this place is, and I hope you can know that joking here is not funny at all." ”

"Your Majesty, this is not a joke, but a fact that is happening. Woz Pedro whispered, "I know exactly what the Kwyn Town Trade District means to the empire right now... Everyone in the empire knows what it means for the trade zone to run smoothly, but there are people who don't know that they are even sabotaging the smooth running of the trade zone. ”

"There are no problems with the trade zone right now. "Zinda doesn't think there's anything wrong with his intelligence system, and he's suddenly disappointed with Woz Pedro in front of him.

Woz-Pedro saw the disappointment in the young emperor's eyes, and he hurriedly said: "There is no problem now, it does not mean that there will be no problems in the future." He glanced at the captain of the Praetorian Guard next to him and said in a low voice, "Have you received any information about the war in Kruling?"

"Of course, Baron Pedi has sent a magical message claiming that the local lords are uniting with the merchants to launch a rebellion, and that he needs a war to settle the rebellion within his realm. "Prince Sinda suddenly became interested when he heard that the other party was pulling things on the Reagan family, and he was now interested in everything Reagan was about.

Woz Pedro's fat head nodded again and again after hearing the emperor's words, "It was this war, Count Bell Cade of Crewe Territory, because he was dissatisfied with the reform of the commercial tax of Fort Kavar, united with the eighteen lords of Harrance Heights to rebel against the rule of the Reagan family, and this war affected almost the entire Harrance Heights in just half a month. ”

"Are you going to oppose the reform of business taxation?"

"No!" Woz-Pedro waved his hand, "the trade zone, the tax reform, and the reorganization of the Chamber of Commerce have all proved to be the right decisions that the empire is gradually recovering from. His fat body leaned forward slightly to get closer to the Emperor, and he continued, "Do you know the trade routes of the Kwyn Trade Zone?"

He asked himself, "The Karen Lords, the Orc Chieftains, and the Twak Lords' Cize-Devin and Andy Barrett... Their goods are concentrated in the Kwyn Town Trade District. ”

The emperor nodded subconsciously, and Woz-Pedro continued: "But the real trading object in the Kwyn Town Trade Zone is not them at all, what the Karen leaders and orcs who are waiting to trade in Kwyn Town are really looking forward to are the goods brought from the dwarves and orcs in the Western Continent, the mage towers, goblins, and barbarians in the southeast and northeast regions of the Eastern Continent, and the elves, werewolves, and Death Swamp Brotherhood in the southwest of the continent!"

He shrugged regretfully, "Because of the war, the other trade routes in the Suker Plain have long been cut off, and the only way to operate normally is from the town of Kwyn to the Twak Heights, and then through Bolenburg to the northern passage of the Harrens Heights, and through the Harrens Heights to the towns of Baran and Seka. ”

Sinda understood at the moment, and his eyebrows furrowed imperceptibly after he and Samp-Reggie looked at each other.

Woz-Pedro continued: "The Reagan family's war in Harrence Heights will indirectly cut off one of the most important trade routes in Kwyn. ”

"Are you worried about this?" Prince Sinda shrugged, "Baron Pedi has already thought of this problem, he promised to deal with the rebels in Harrence Heights within half a month, and I also believe that the Reagan family has such strength." ”

"Yes, I also believe that the Reagan family has that strength. Woz-Pedro did not refute the Emperor's words, he said: "But I have heard that Baron Pedi does not intend to be satisfied with the status quo of Crewe, and he intends to carry out a reform of the commercial tax items throughout Crewe, but the reform has not been as smooth as in the Central Empire, because the local lords of Crewe have too much power. ”

Woz Pedro deliberately paused for two seconds before continuing: "I heard that Viscount Bane Lockton of Fort Herien had openly opposed Baron Peddy Reagan's reforms, and he intended to close all trade routes against Baron Pedy. ”

Emperor Sinda immediately smiled when he heard this, "Do you think Viscount Bane-Lockton is a fool, and he dares to challenge the entire empire with his power?"

"Your Majesty, the rebels led by Eloke have cut off all contact with the outside world in the Central Empire, and Viscount Bane-Lockton only needs to fight against Baron Pedy Reagan, and Viscount Bane-Lockton has such an ability in Crewe. Woz-Pedro said: "The energy of the Dominion Lords of the Crewe Command is quite strong, and even the Reagan family has to think seriously about their union. He rubbed his fat hands together and said, "With Baron Pedy Reagan's character, he will definitely not choose to compromise... In this way, the protracted Cold War and military confrontation may continue for a long time in Harrence Heights. ”

Woz Pedro let out a long breath, "This is bound to cause a long break in the Kwyn trade area!"

Sinda understood the other party's plan at the moment, but he didn't want to pay attention to this matter, although he didn't like Duke Nick to continue to be in the position of prime minister, he also didn't want to go against Duke Nick.

"The laws of the Empire do not give me the power to meddle in the affairs of the Crewe Territory. The Emperor replied.

"You can ask Duke Nick to give Peddy Reagan an an orders, and the real owner of Crewe Territory is Duke Nick. Woz-Pedro smiled: "As the Prime Minister of the Empire, and even more so as your father-in-law, I think he will agree to your request." ”
