The battle outside the gates of Fort Caval was so unpredictable that the noble rebels' original momentum was instantly crushed by Queen Elein Phier, who relied on the power of the castle's mage tower to exert a powerful magical power.

The battle in Twilight Square immediately took a sharp turn, and the noble rebels had to face the defeat of storming the castle gates. However, after a brief period of confusion, the aristocratic rebels began to withdraw in an orderly manner in the direction of the seventh block, and the police station and the city garrison fought hard to intercept it.

However, due to the lack of regular combat experience of the police officers and the fact that the city garrison was mostly recruits, after three hours of fighting in the twilight, the aristocratic rebels retreated to the seventh block as the sun rose in early spring, and successfully intercepted the pursuit of the police station and the garrison.

Outside the seventh block, the ornate buildings are long gone, the magic is raging and the ruins left behind by the explosion of gunpowder are blocking the original wide road, the magicians are repairing the broken road, and the soldiers are clearing the boulders that block the way.

And inside the block, fierce fighting continues.

"These people deserve to go to hell, and do they also deserve to be called nobles?" the chill between Erinphier's eyebrows made everyone around her subconsciously move away from her, "Look at everything you have done, is this what you want?" her cold gaze looked at Merrot-Terretus, who was firmly controlled by the two guards.

"Everyone has their own ideas, and you yourself may think that everything you do is for the country, but many people think that you are just decorating the crown on your head, and those ornate decorations are sacrificing the interests of many families. Merrot-Terrets was a little embarrassed, the battle just now had almost consumed all his strength, making him collapse from even talking at the moment.

Irene listened intently to the old man's words, and she did not make any excuse for this, but asked, "What kind of thoughts do you have?

"It seems that Your Majesty is safe and sound. The old man guessed something from the queen's question, but he did not appear depressed, but smiled with relief.

"I... Hehe, I just want to do something, you—" the old man looked at the young queen, "you don't know what a nobleman is. ”

"Yes, I don't know what aristocracy is, before I only learned what aristocracy was from my father and the teacher of etiquette courses, my father told me that nobles are the most cunning wolves, and my etiquette teacher told me that nobles are gentlemen. Eileen Field's tone was characterised by the queen's haughtyness, and she looked at Merrot-Tyretus like a lowly servant, "Do you know what these so-called nobles are in my eyes at this moment?"

Merlot-Terretus looked at the queen's eyes and listened to her question, and suddenly felt the idea of escaping.

"In my eyes, a nobleman like you... And them—" Erin Phier pointed in the direction of the seventh block, "just like a robber, Your Majesty has withdrawn your rights in order to make you regain the honor that you deserve, but only a very small number of nobles can understand this truth, and many more are complaining about Your Majesty's injustice, and they don't even think about why they are deprived of power." ”

"Our power is not given by His Majesty, it was bought by our ancestors with blood, even His Majesty has no right to deprive us, but he still violates the agreement of our ancestors to deprive us of everything, what we take back is only our own things, what's wrong?"

"This is the nobility in your eyes, and your so-called honor is nothing but the interests of your family!" Eileen Phier and Hanina, Silah-Marne, and Collier glanced at each other, "When your interests are threatened at the slightest bit, you will shout "honor of nobility" in the halls of Kawar Castle, and you never care about things outside your own family..."

"The nobles only serve the monarch to whom they are allegiant!" Merlot-Terretus scrambled to say a word, stopping Erin Phiel from continuing what she wanted to say.

"Papapa" Erin Phier suddenly applauded, and in the continuous applause, she let out a light laugh, "Look, this is what you call allegiance... I ask you, who are you loyal to?"

"I..."

"I don't want to listen to your nonsense anymore, your life is not worthy of defiling the sword of the knights of our kingdom. Erin Phier pointed to the castle guard guarding Merlot, "This is a civilian, he will be tried by the Third Court of the Outer City, and... He doesn't deserve a cemetery. ”

"You wicked—" The old man's curse failed to speak, and the castle knight shut his mouth and lifted him out of the queen's sight.

Erin Fil was indeed annoyed by Merlot's words, and she could not understand their self-righteous thoughts, which were formed by the innate superiority of the aristocracy, and made most of them forget what true glory was.

"Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about them, most of the noble families in Crewe City retain the thoughts and beliefs of the nomadic period of human beings, and they worship family culture. Wearing a set of gray mage battle light armor, he looked like a guard, he looked at the troubled queen and whispered: "In the eyes of these people, the kingdom is just a family interest group, and Your Majesty is just the object of their service. ”

"Your Majesty is very merciful," Erin Phier whispered when she heard the old mage's words, and only the few people around her could understand her, "He could have disposed of these nobles when the new law was enacted, but he said that we did break the covenant of our ancestors, and we were at fault in the first place... So, he spared them and gave them another favor. ”

"But Your Majesty underestimated the selfishness of these people, who could attack Fort Kawar for their own selfish interests, cooperate with the undead legions, and grovel to the remnants of the empire in the Sukh Plains. Erin Phier looked at the three ministers, "So, Your Majesty has decided to correct the mistakes he made before. ”

"How long will it take for us to take the Seventh Block?" Irene Fiel fixed her gaze on a somewhat pale Sirah Marne.

"There are many noble villas in the seventh block, and most of the estates here were designed and built during the construction of Crewe City, so almost every manor in it has strong defenses, plus a staggered alleyway..."

"I don't understand this, you just need to tell me how long it will take?" Irene Phier interrupted Silah Marne's explanation.

"We currently have only one garrison and a thousand officers, and less than five hundred castle guards. Baron Hanina, as the specific mastermind, took a slight step forward after the queen's inquiry and said, "With our current strength, it is already the limit to maintain the rebellion from spreading outward..."

"Time!" said Eileen Feyl, with a deliberately disgruntled look.

"Half a month, it will take us at least half a month to completely wipe out the rebellion in the seventh block. Hanina didn't dare to explain any further.

Erin Fei'er raised her eyebrows slightly, and after two seconds of silence, she said, "We don't have time to spend half a month with them." ”

"Your Majesty, there are still many nobles in the Seventh Quarter who did not participate in this rebellion. Hanina explains: "We have to avoid conflict with them... If we don't take the assault without casualties, we'll be able to capture the seventh block in two days, but we'll end up in ruins!"

"Your Majesty!" Just as Eileen Phil was about to make a decision, Hanina said, "Sixteen years ago, Suke City was also left in ruins under a fire, and this ruin completely ignited the conflict between the royal family and the nobility..."

"Do you have any good advice?" said Erinphier, not wanting to hear what Hannina said next.

"There are those who oppose His Majesty's reforms, but there are those who support it, and we need the strength of this part of the people now. Hanina looked at the busy soldiers and laborers nearby, and said in a low voice, "The police department's agents have already secretly contacted these people, and we can have them launch an armed raid inside the seventh block to cooperate with our frontal attack, but... This requires you to give them temporary authorization, as the current kingdom law does not allow nobles to have more than twenty armed forces. ”

"I can give them authority now—" Erin Phier didn't hesitate, but just as she could say something, Hannina's assistant Brady came running briskly from the side and interrupted their conversation very rudely.

When Brady subconsciously wanted to follow the secret report, Hanina immediately signaled that he should salute Her Majesty the Queen first.

"I'm very sorry, Your Majesty!" Brady realized how stupid his actions had just been, and he looked eager to salute, and immediately after saluting, he said, "Our spies inside the Seventh Block have sent back news that the rebels are forcibly recruiting the family guards of other nobles, and many villas and estates have been looted by them. ”

Brady's report was like a hammer blow to the hearts of several people present, and after a brief silence, Eileen Fil gritted her teeth and looked at the smoke above the seventh block, "They're crazy..."

"And—" Brady took a deep breath, "There is news from the spies in the outer city, someone is spreading rumors of His Majesty's assassination, and the intelligence that came five minutes ago indicates that many factories in the outer city have stopped production, and businessmen with noble titles have gathered at the offices of the Prime Minister's government in the outer city, demanding that we make the information public. ”

"Crewe can't be in chaos!" said almost subconsciously after hearing Brady's words, as the head of the Prime Minister's government during the war, "the rumors must be cleared up immediately." ”

"How?" Hanina frowned, "Now it's time to think about the problem of the Seventh Block, as soon as we solve this problem, the rumors will immediately disappear without a trace like smoke and dust under the wind." ”

"It seems that our opponent is not as stupid as he thinks..."Erin Phier looked at the ministers, although her mind was also in a jumbled and did not know what to do, but she deliberately made a calm appearance, "Go and give me a speech, give you four hours to prepare, and after four hours, I need a reason to explain to the citizens." ”

"And," Erin Phil pointed to Hanina, "try to contact the nobles of the Seventh Quarter who are still loyal to Your Majesty, and orchestrate a beautiful attack as soon as possible, to give me a little confidence, and a little confidence to the citizens of the city." ”

"Your Majesty, this is the time to speak," Cowlier frowned, "and if there were a little more surprises, it would make the city even more chaotic. ”

"I agree with Cowlier... Your Majesty, the slightest rumor is unlikely to shake the foundations of Crewe, and we will immediately organize officials from the Prime Minister's government and police officers to explain the matter in various parts of the city. Sira-Marne immediately chimed in: "Baron Hannina is right just now, as long as we get rid of the rebels in the seventh block, all the problems will be solved. ”

Erin Phier quietly listened to the advice of the two ministers and looked at Hanina, but Hannina didn't seem to have any intention of speaking.

"What's going on on your father's side?" said Eilefeld, who had wanted to ask Hanina, but suddenly turned to Sila-Marne and asked, and the language was so blunt that it was eye-catching.

"I even sent an agent from my sister, but nothing came of it. Sheila Marne didn't shy away from it.

"Oh?" Irene Phil nodded, looking at the battlefield in the seventh block ahead, "Sir, the battlefield ahead needs your command skills. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty... Allow me to retire. Silah Marne lowered her head so that her expression could not be seen clearly, and quickly took a few steps back and turned away decisively.

Erin Fil didn't pay attention to the departing War Secretary, she looked at Hanina, "What's going on with Zerodin-Marne?"

"He's on a farm near the intersection outside the city. Hannina deliberately showed an incomprehensible expression: "Do you need to find out to him?"

"Since he doesn't want to come out, let's just continue to play stupid. Erin Phier said without thinking, "Keep spying on him... His Majesty was determined to wipe out the discordant voices among the nobles this time, but His Majesty did not want the Corvinder to intervene in this matter, as it would complicate matters. ”

"What if Viscount Marne wants to intervene forcibly?" Hanina asked cautiously, "in his current state, he will certainly spare no effort to mediate the conflict between us and the nobles, and put himself in a detached position in order to achieve the political independence of the Covinde Lord." ”

"He's too old, his mind is still stuck in a long time ago, and he'll soon change his mind...", Erin Phier laughed disdainfully, and then changed the subject: "I'll give you two days, I hope that after two days, the inner city walls will be opened smoothly, and you will find me more good reasons." ”

"Your Majesty—" Hanina frowned.

"Nearly ninety percent of the current armed forces in Crewe City are concentrated here, and we simply don't have any extra troops to guard the inner city, if we open the city gate in advance..."

The old mage Collier took up the conversation when Hannina stopped talking, and voiced their fears.
