"Your Majesty!" the six of them quickly walked to the door of Eunice Hall, and under the gaze of many nobles, they presented the highest etiquette to the supreme ruler of the Empire, Emperor Laubert.

"Old guys, it's been a long time, I've forgotten the time for a long time... Except, of course, Nick, haha!" Laubert welcomed his guests with open arms.

The emperor spoke in a loud voice, with the casualness of his master, but also with the majesty of an emperor.

When the words landed, Rawbot rushed up again.

He first walked up to Duke Nick, the Prime Minister of the Empire, on the far left, and whispered, "My brother, I have too many things to do these days, and I am sorry for the actions of the guards a few days ago, you did the right thing, and you should really make the guards taste the bitterness." ”

The Emperor casually recounted the conflict between Duke Nick and the guards outside his private court the other day, and his words specifically mentioned Nick's handling of several guards, and although the Emperor expressed his support on the surface, the hint of warning was equally obvious.

Duke Nick was about to explain, but Emperor Laubert gave him a hug, then let go and stretched out his left hand... Seeing this, Duke Nick hurriedly bowed down and kissed the purple gold ring with the Danediv family crest on the emperor's middle finger.

Emperor Laubert enjoyed the Imperial Prime Minister's submission to him, and the haughty smile on his face spoke for itself.

Soon, when Duke Nick looked up again, the Emperor quickly looked away, and it was clear that he didn't want to talk too much with his Prime Minister at this time.

However, when Emperor Laubert took a step towards his left hand and faced the Duke of Chester, he suddenly turned his head, looked at Duke Nick with squinted eyes, and asked, "What did you do with me the other day?"

Nick was stunned for a moment, he glanced at Chester, who was awkwardly saluting in front of the Emperor, and said, "The problem has been solved, Your Majesty." ”

"Oh, yes, a good prime minister is easy to do!" the Emperor narrowed his eyes and began to look squarely at the Duke of Chester in front of him, "Old friend, we haven't seen each other since we parted on the battlefield thirteen years ago." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" the Duke of Chester bowed his head and kissed the ring on the Emperor's finger, thirteen years ago the Cliff family was defeated as a supporter of the puppet Emperor Barret, "The Cliff family is at your disposal!"

The Duke of Chester's face was more deferential than anyone present.

"Yes, the Cliff family will always be loyal only to the Emperor. Laubert spoke aloud, and when he had finished laughing, he laughed haughtily, for he, Laubert Danediv, was the only legitimate ruler of the Lockell Empire.

The Emperor's laughter led the other ministers in the hall, who followed the Emperor with an unbridled laugh.

Duke Nick frowned as he looked at the smiling nobles in the hall, he wanted to stop the emperor's absurd move, but when the words came to his lips, he seemed to suddenly think of something, and in the end, he remained silent.

After more than ten seconds, the Emperor stopped laughing and turned to the nobles in the hall and said in a loud voice, "The Cliff family is a hundred times more loyal than any of yours. ”

"Your Majesty, I just haven't forgotten the oath of my ancestors. The Duke of Chester's face did not show any hint of anger at the ridicule of the Emperor and the nobles, and his tone was serious, and his words were old-fashioned and stiff.

The Emperor Laubert raised his eyebrows, then straightened his back, and he looked at Chester, who showed no signs of anger, and then turned his head with a light 'snort', and he didn't even respond to the Duke of Chester's oath-like words.

Now, the Emperor looked at Duke Eric of Felder, who took a few steps back, looked Duke Eric up and down with a scrutinizing gaze for a few seconds, and then said, "Welcome, my brother. ”

"The Jean family will always be by your side. Duke Eric said indifferently, and at the same time to show his attitude to this meeting in front of everyone, and after he finished speaking, he leaned down and kissed the ring on the emperor's finger.

The Emperor smiled noncommittally, and his gaze fell on Duke Gna.

Duke Gna was the first to say, "Your Majesty the Emperor, it's been a long time...", he had a humble smile on his face, "Although I would like to praise your greatness, but before that, I have to say something, well... Since six years ago, the Twak Plateau War Horse purchased by the military department has not been paid, and this time I came with a bill. ”

There was a half-joke in Duke Gna's words.

"But I didn't see a single horse. The Emperor smiled and said, "Perhaps you should have someone go to the Anku Fortress to find the exiled Eden Val to settle the accounts, but you need to hurry, for I have heard that the Orc army has arrived at the Anku Fortress." ”

"I have your personal stamp on my bill, Your Majesty. After kissing the Emperor's ring, the Duke of Gna said, "The family crest on it is as lifelike as the one on your ring." ”

"You may have been deceived, old man, the Cabinet and the Guard Department recently solved a case, the agents found a large number of Twak horses in the savannah southwest of Fort Norma, maybe you should go to the Chief of Guard, Gus El, or Duke Nick for details. "The emperor didn't blink an eye when he lied.

After Laubert finished speaking, he quickly took another step to the right, he looked at Duke Enxi in a naval uniform and was stunned, and then said in an incredible tone: "Duke Enxi, oh, I don't even know you anymore, my God, how old are you?"

"The sea breeze makes people age faster. Duke Enxi smiled indifferently, and the wrinkles on his face immediately squeezed together when he laughed, "I am the best proof!"

"It seems that life on the sea is not so pretty. The Emperor sighed.

"Of course, but it can bring wealth, endless wealth!" Enxi said, leaning down and kissing the Emperor's ring.

"Looks like you've made a lot of money from your trade with goblins and elves!" a hint of surprise flashed across Laubert's face.

Duke Enshi explained, "Yes, the orc ore in the hands of the goblins is good, but most of their ore is traded in the port of Balan Town, and the fruits and herbs of the Elven Forest are the favorite of the nobles of Suke City, and the most important source of income for our trading fleet. ”

"Oh?" Emperor Laubert asked, with a twinkle in his eyes and a hint of anticipation, "Do you think the opening of a trading port in the Yekjar military port will have any effect?"

"Of course this is not bad, but Your Majesty, with all due respect, this issue has been discussed by the Empire for almost a hundred years, and so far there is no result. Duke Enshi lowered his head as he spoke, and the corner of his eye looked at Duke Nick on the far left, the main reason for the indefinite delay in this matter was the Reagan family, because, once the trading port of Yekgyel was formed, it would definitely affect the business of Balan Town.

"Perhaps, you should have a good talk with Duke Nick. The Emperor's eyes narrowed.

"Of course, if Duke Nick wants to. As Duke Enxi spoke, he looked at the Imperial Prime Minister who was standing on the far left of the group.
