The agreement reached between Sean and King Laurie is still relatively friendly and broad, and a series of trade agreements have been signed, and in the overall situation, I dare not say that it will not change at all, at least the impact is not as big as imagined.

There is a difference between King Laurie and Princess Sophia after all, especially after Sean marries Princess Sophia, some things should be paid more attention to.

In order to avoid suspicion, Sean took the initiative to dismantle some non-essential and sensitive institutions of the Eternal Night Army in the royal capital Valesta, and some industries also allowed King Laurie to take a large stake.

For example, the Eagle Messenger system in the Dawn Tavern was sold directly to King Laurie at cost price.

As for whether there are some things that have taken the opportunity to move from the light to the dark, only Sean himself knows.

In the short term, the interests of the Nightnight Warlords will be damaged, not only will the newly established influence in the royal capital Valesta shrink, but also the volume of trade will be affected.

But in the long run, there are benefits.

Since some sensitive things have been eliminated, even if the relationship between the two sides deteriorates in the future, it will not be easy for King Laurie to find fault with this, even if he tears his face and fights the Eternal Night Leader with all his might, their impact will be relatively limited.

Sean is not optimistic about the situation in the royal capital Valesta, now is just the eve of the storm, and for a long time to come, this will be the storm center of the entire Byron Alliance.

The new Pope of the Holy Ether, St. George's all-Union sermon, was interrupted by Princess Sophia with high-handed means.

Pope St. George and the Holy Enid of Enid, who had bewitched King Laurie, were driven back to St. Ann's Land.

But King Laurie was poisoned, and Princess Sophia tried her best to not change his mind, but instead made the relationship worse.

Unless there are any special circumstances, King Laurie now largely does not meet Princess Sophia.

Once Princess Sophia leaves the royal capital, she knows with her ass that the Holy See, headed by Pope St. George, will definitely launch a new round of counterattack.

As the saying goes, only when the tree is straight can we find a way to help.

When the tree grows crooked unconsciously, the external force plays a very small role.

The matter of being pregnant before marriage made Princess Sophia unable to continue the marriage, once she got married, she was no longer a member of the pure Lancelot royal family, and at that time, she could not easily interfere in the affairs of the Lancelot royal family.

In addition to external reasons, there are now problems within the royal family.

When the royalist faction has the princess faction, a foreign enemy, it can still share the same enemy.

When they expel the princess faction, they will inevitably fall into an internal struggle for power.

This was not only a painful period of change of power, but also a manifestation of King Lowrie's lack of internal control.

The change of power is not a simple matter of enthronement ceremony, handing over a symbolic sword of courage.

There's a range of things involved.

Prince Laurie, no, if King Laurie was smart enough, he should not be in such a hurry to become a princess, but to rehire Princess Sophia, who has stepped down as regent, as his first prime minister, and with his help, spend ten years and eight years to stabilize his regime, and then it is not too late to consider the issue of de-princessization.

Although he was born noble, he was too young after all.

The temperament has not yet been fully set, and the wrists have not been sharpened.

That's right.

When Princess Sophia was forced to ascend to the throne of regent, it was true that she did not even have the current age of King Laurie, but the two grew up in different environments.

Princess Sophia grew up in a barracks-like broken blood castle, so she is naturally more mature than her peers.

The most important thing is that at the time there was Archduke Cedric standing behind her, and her Iron Rose Knights were the best proof of this?

It was all composed of the descendants of the knights of the Broken Blood Castle, and how many of Princess Sophia's early decisions belonged to the will of Archduke Cedric, no one could say, everyone was just turning a blind eye.

King Laurie wanted to run when he had just learned to walk.

When the time comes, it is inevitable to fall on your heels.

King Laurie has shown no intention of hiring Princess Sophilia as his prime minister.

Princess Sophia, who has been angry with birds for a while, has no intention of taking the initiative to post it.

After marrying Sean, he packed up his rituals and forces, and prepared to fully shrink back to his princess fiefdom.

Princess Sophia is using this method to express her anger.

After so many years of hard work for the Lancelot royal family, she actually got this kind of reward, saying that she was not angry or annoyed at all in her heart, which is false.

In the next period of time, the run-in with Sean and the Eternal Night Commander will take up most of Sophia's energy.

After working with the Eternal Night Commander for such a long time, Princess Sophia feels that her understanding of the Eternal Night Commander is still in the skin.

To be more precise, the development speed of the Eternal Night Leader is far beyond her imagination.

She understands that she is always in a backward state, and she doesn't know what kind of surprises are waiting for her now.

Thinking of this, Princess Sophia was a little excited and eager to try.

Sean and Princess Sophia share the princess boat and sail up the Jacob River.

First, go to Princess Sophia's fiefdom.

Although there was no second wedding here, it was a change of carriage and a tour around the main city.

The main purpose is to announce the good news of Princess Sophia's marriage to the people, and at the same time to introduce the male host of Count Sean to the officials and nobles of various cities.

This is a common method used by the lords and nobles of the entire Byron Union, whether it is a new ruler or a big wedding, and some lords even send their trusted ministers every once in a while, or personally inspect their own territory.

King Lowrie, who has just ascended the throne, is also preparing to visit the crown direct domain.

On the one hand, this is to let the people below know their new ruler as soon as possible.

On the other hand, it also allows the ruler to have a more intuitive understanding and cognition of the territorial cities he rules.

This refers to the more diligent rulers, some of whom have visited their territories only a handful of times throughout their lives, and the state of their territories can be imagined.

Of course, running frequently in his own territory does not mean that his territory is well managed.

Some people who like luxury not only do their best to be extravagant all the way, but also eat, drink, and feast on guests without restraint every time they go to a place, which greatly increases the financial burden on the local government, and some territories have developed well, so that they have a whole financial deficit.

Whether the method is good or not depends on whose hands it is.

After ten years of rectification, Princess Sophia's fief has been marked with a strong personal label.

This is no longer a simple feudal system of lords, but has a strong city-state flavor.

The top decision-makers of the city are no longer those hereditary lords and nobles, but the mayors are hired exclusively, and the municipal system centered on them.

Each municipal system affects not only a city, but also the surrounding affiliated villages and towns, to a greater or lesser extent, will be affected by the relevant policies formulated by it.

For example, if there is a large mineral deposit near a city, then the municipal system is mostly resource-based, and it is mainly around the excavation of this mineral deposit.

If a city is suitable for large-scale grape cultivation, then most of the surrounding areas of the city are mainly grape cultivation and winemaking.

If it is suitable for large-scale cultivation of food, they will go all out to develop it.

This relatively professional development model is inseparable from the increasingly convenient transportation conditions in recent years.

They dare to do this if the goods can be transported, otherwise they will have to let the excess crops rot in the ground.

The Commander of the Eternal Night has been the main buyer of the crops produced by Princess Sophilia's fiefdom in recent years, and a third of it has been eaten by them.

This situation may continue for a long time to come.

Although the Eternal Night Warlord now owns the Danube Plain, it is not an overnight thing to turn this place into a granary.

What's more, they now have another big food consumer.

So far, there are 30,000 Kentana barbarians who have been sent to the northern fortress for renovation one after another.

It's not that the Eternal Night Commanders don't want to speed up the transformation, it's that they're consuming too much food.

The consumption of 30,000 Kentana barbarians has been able to keep up with hundreds of thousands of Andes.

Transportation in the northern fortress has always been a big problem, thanks to the fact that the herd on the Colt steppe outside the fortress has become large, which can relieve some of the pressure.

The number of Kentana barbarians in the eastern mountains of the Andes Mountains is increasing dramatically, and the propaganda team composed of ancestral spirit soldiers sent by the leader of the Eternal Night Army is very powerful.

Every day, no less than a hundred Kentana barbarians enter the eastern mountains of the Andes Mountains.

The Eternal Night Leader is now happy and miserable.

A race of natural warriors like the Kentana barbarians, after being reformed by means of faith, is loyal and loyal, and they naturally hope that the more the better.

But with their massive influx, the pressure on their logistical supply is increasing.

The Eternal Night Commander now has more than 130,000 registered Kentana barbarians.

According to the current situation, it is not difficult to break through 200,000, which is basically the same as the number of Kentana barbarians estimated by the Eternal Night Warlords at the beginning.

The Kentana savages were rough and lacked the patience to cultivate the land, and it was more difficult for them to be a dwelling farmer than to hunt whales with their bare hands.

At the same time, it is also a violent thing.

Before the Eternal Night Warlords didn't have enough pastures to house them, they had to rely on the Nightmtime Warlords for food supplies.

No matter how fanciful Sean says, the future of the Eternal Night Leader is so good.

Feeding their bellies is the basic premise.

If there is no way to guarantee this, the Kentana barbarians gathered together are a super powder keg that will blow up the Eternal Night Leader.

The fiefdom of the princess, who has established good trade relations, is the strength of the Eternal Night Warlord in this regard.

Especially after Sean and Princess Sophilia got married, the relationship became closer.

Although there is still a long way to go to merge into one, at least you don't have to worry about the other party stumbling from behind.

The municipal officials of Princess Sophia's fiefdom are mainly from lords and nobles, and there are very few who are really from low-level commoners.

This is determined by the level of education.

In the Byronic League, the lords and nobles created a monopoly of far more than power and wealth, but also a monopoly of knowledge.

In many cases, if civilians want to study, it is not only a question of whether their families can afford it, but also whether they have a way.

Conducting a large-scale education like the Eternal Night Army Leader is an incredible thing in the eyes of many lords and nobles.

Even if the unprecedented Scholars Conference was successfully held in the Eternal Night Army's Brotherhood Harbor, many of the scholars who went to participate in the Scholars Conference returned with a full load, bringing back a lot of practical knowledge for their loyal lords.

There are many people who are even enthusiastic to promote the universal education of the Eternal Night Commander, and they believe that this is the root of the Eternal Night Lord's ability to rise to the top and surpass a military leader in just a dozen years.

However, judging from the information fed back by the Hawkeyes of the Eternal Night Army Lord, after these suggestions were handed to the noble lords, most of them were sunk into the sea and pressed down without restrictions.

Those noble lords are not completely unaware of the benefits involved, but they have their own calculations and worries.

In their traditional beliefs, ordinary people with too much knowledge are likely to become a source of unrest and affect the stability of their rule.

In their eyes, the stability of family rule is far higher than the speed of development of the territory.

Sean has to sigh that selfishness is the stumbling block to the development of the territory.

They gave away the technology that shaped a better life for nothing, and people were still afraid of it.

Fortunately, most scholars are smart people and have scholarly persistence.

There is no way to get the support of the noble lords and promote it on a large scale.

Sneak sponsorship to conduct experiments, especially some new farming techniques, and when the experimental results come out, some greedy farm owners will naturally follow up.

Princess Sophia's fief is heavily influenced by the Eternal Night Lord.

Not only grafting, breeding, deep burial fertilization and other farming techniques can be seen here.

Even universal education has reached a certain scale, and many common intellectuals are pouring out to break the monopoly of the aristocracy in the administrative system.

The situation of the princess's fiefdom is far more complicated than that of the Eternal Night Lord.

Compared to the emerging power of the Eternal Night Warlord, the ruling class in the princess's fiefdom is deeply entrenched.

Sensing that his monopoly rule is being shaken, he instinctively suppresses it.

And the emerging civilian intellectual class, obviously not so easy to admit defeat, has been suppressed for so many years, they finally saw the hope of turning over, naturally they tried their best to resist and struggle, the more the old aristocracy suppressed, the harder they worked.

Princess Sophia played a balance in the middle, neither one-sidedly siding with the new plebeian intellectuals, nor allowing the old aristocracy to use despicable means of competition.

The benefits of this are obvious.

The new civilian intellectual class lacks a deep foundation and must unswervingly stand on the side of Princess Sophia, because once they lose the protection of the other party, they are easily uprooted by the old nobles.

The old aristocracy now has checks and balances, and they no longer dare to confront Princess Sophia, because their role is no longer irreplaceable.

When they are about to make a mistake, the new civilian intelligentsia is willing to take their place.

In order to keep his status and interests, he can only change his laziness in the past and stick to his post conscientiously.

In this case, the power of the old aristocracy cannot be underestimated, after all, they have been inherited for so many years, and elite education still has merit.

Sean and Princess Sophia have been in the princess's fiefdom for more than three months.

Sean has a general understanding of the situation of the princess's fiefdom and knows it in his heart.

That's all.

In the short term, Sean is not ready to meddle in the affairs related to the princess's fiefdom.

Princess Sophia wouldn't have run away to the Eternal Night Commander right now.

Both of them are sensible and almost ruthless people, how could they not discuss the governance of the two territories after the two get married.

This issue is more sensitive to them than ordinary territories.

After all, there are two very different administrative systems involved.

Sean believes that the reform of the princess's fiefdom is not thorough, and there is still huge room for improvement.

Princess Sophia also had no way to fully understand and agree that some of the administrative concepts of the Eternal Night Army were too radical in her eyes.

But the princess fief has the difficulties of the princess fief.

The Eternal Night Army has the internal contradictions of the Eternal Night Army Leader.
