The blue sky was filled with white clouds, and the arena was silent, waiting only for the emperor's judgment. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info Sebastian only heard a flock of crows chirping in the treetops parked outside the arena.

The eldest prince pushed away his attendants, glared at the "tattered knight", and knelt down on one knee to His Majesty the Emperor.

"No wonder I didn't see the eldest prince today. Fred Mann snapped his head and said, "I was wondering how he would want to miss the Cavaliers." ”

"His skills are amazing, it's amazing. Commander Ludwig exclaimed, "It's the first time he's playing, and he's completely knocked the adults down." ”

His Majesty the Emperor cleared his throat and asked the "Tattered Knight," "Where are you from?" ”

The "Tattered Knight" took off his pot helmet, revealing a lean short goose-yellow hair, he raised his head, his gaze seemed a little cold, and replied word by word: "Back to Your Majesty, the villain Hans Barton, from a small village in the town of White Tower, was canonized by a knight in a battle, and after that I wandered everywhere. Participating in the competition today, I was lucky to reach the championship final. ”

"Good. I now declare that the winner of the knight's singles competition is Hans Barton from White Tower, with a prize of 500,000 Reichsmark and Madame Fernand. The other winner was the Grand Prince Brandette Rudolph, who received a prize of 500,000 Reichsmarks. Yes, I decide, the game is a draw!" the emperor said, pausing and glancing at the eldest prince.

The audience applauded and cheered. Hans Barton fell to one knee and bowed in thanks, while the Grand Prince bowed hastily and hastily withdrew.

Bill Newton seemed to be happier than Hans Barton, who received half of the prize, and a group of colleagues were dejected, whether it was Olaf or Philip, and others had to give the intelligence chief a bet of 1 to 10.

"Oh my God, Fat Boss, damn it, I've been happy for most of the day. Olaf counted the money in his purse, hung his head in frustration, and turned to Sebastian and said, "I should take it when I see it, I owe you the money now." ”

Parker Bloom shrugged helplessly and handed over the money bag from the silver platter, "We're all working for you today, Bill, you should have a treat." ”

The intelligence chief laughed.

"How am I going to explain it to my wife? After the master craftsman took off the necklace and gave it to Bill, Sebastian overheard himself as he left.

Sebastian smiled, he speculated that the intelligence director knew the secret that the Red Knight was the Great Prince in advance, maybe he also knew in advance that His Majesty the Emperor would decide the outcome of the game, Bill often said that he used information to make a fortune, and I am afraid that this time is the same. Everyone was in his trap.

During the lunch break, the Ministry of Internal Affairs had set up a tent in the vestibule of the tower, and the emperor and his family dined in the largest tent and other dignitaries and nobles in the small tents around it. Sebastian had a very pleasant meal, he saw all kinds of fish, tuna, trout, catfish, and a surprisingly large catfish, and he tasted all kinds of pies, apple pie, strawberry pie, mango pie, and so on. When the roast suckling pig came up, he tore off a piece of pork leg meat and slice it while it was hot. His mood is like the weather outside, it has turned from cloudy to sunny, in recent months, the preparation of the celebration, almost all his energy has been squeezed, and when the noon archery competition is over, there will be only one part of the knight team competition, and the celebration will officially be over.

"Your Excellency, His Majesty the Emperor and the Great Prince have quarreled. A squire ran and squeezed through the crowd to find Sebastian at a pile of tables eating Kiwei shrimp. Sebastian frowned: "Your Majesty quarreled with the eldest prince, why are you looking for me?" he was puzzled.

"They quarreled so much, and Her Majesty asked me to come to you, and she said, "Maybe you can help persuade them." The squire replied pitifully.

Before Sebastian could enter the Emperor's tent, he heard His Majesty's roar: "Shut up!

He walked into the tent and found that the intelligence director and the university scholar were also there. The woolen carpet on the floor was stained by the upside-down soup and minced meat, and the cups and plates were shattered.

"Your Royal Highness, this tea has analgesic and antipyretic effects, please be sure to drink it. Winston Grum held the cup and said with a slight trembling persuasion.

"I don't drink it!" The eldest prince's cheeks were slightly puffy, the skin of the lower left corner of his mouth was broken, he looked angry, pushed away the tea handed by the scholar, raised his chin, and yelled at His Majesty the Emperor, "Why? Father, why did you sentence me to a tie with that poor ghost?"

His Majesty the Emperor held a horn cup with beer in one hand, and as soon as he raised his hand, he gave the eldest prince a slap: "Fool! You could have won the championship, but you did something wrong in the end! You should press the opponent's chest with your knee after he fell to the ground, and hold him down! Your strength is strong enough to make the opponent breathless until he surrenders." This way you can win the game and show your chivalrous demeanor. But what about you? You run over and punch him on the ground, it's not a fight, it's a game. Do you hear those boos?"

"He hit me too!" the eldest prince said emphatically.

"You idiot! When I was playing a sword game under the horse, I could see that your swordsmanship was not as good as his, and that he was much more experienced than you. I thought you were going to lose, but that doesn't matter, I can afford to give a mere 1 million Reichsmarks. The Emperor poked his finger in the chest of the eldest prince, "But you were lucky enough to enter the wrestling stage with him, and that already made me overjoyed." Remember what I said, it's wrestling, not fighting! He hits you because you didn't follow the way of knighthood first!"

Well said, just 1 million Reichsmarks, Krauser is probably going to cry again when he hears it. Sebastian couldn't help but smile wryly. He saw the queen hiding in the corner, and the queen was holding the shoulders of the second prince and watching the two quarrel.

Commander Ludwig coughed lightly and interjected: "Your Majesty, I think the Grand Prince is not familiar with the rules of the knightly competition, after all, he is participating in the ...... for the first time."

"Shut up!" interrupted Ludwig, "what do you mean by that? Brandett is uneducated, doesn't understand chivalry, and says I'm not properly educated?"

Poor Ludwig shrunk his neck, looked pitifully at Sebastian and the Empress, and said no more.

"I want to be the champion!" the eldest prince did not relent, "just like my father defeated the 'Jungle Ranger' in three rounds back then, there is only one champion, and I don't want to share it with others." ”

"Shut up, the result of my sentence will not change. Took care of your face, took care of the royal face, and appeared fair. "His Majesty the Emperor is obviously not drunk, his thoughts are very clear.

"Then play again!" the eldest prince did not relent.

"If you say one more thing, I'll ask the Imperial Guard Knight to kidnap you!" the Emperor's tone was indisputable, "Why are you so ignorant?

"His Royal Highness, His Majesty the Emperor is right, the single competition is over. If he had been awarded an extra game, you might not have been able to draw it. Bill Newton spoke cautiously, looking at the emperor from time to time, "When you play, your identity has been revealed, and if you lose, people will say, well...... Don't be angry, you will say that the prince is still a little tender after all, and his skills are almost hot. ”

Bill, where are you persuading, it's just adding fuel to the fire. Sebastian saw that the prince's face turned red, and he pushed away the knight of the Imperial Guard,

"You fat, dark fatty, get out of here!" the Grand Prince yelled at Bill, who smiled wryly and cast a helpless look at Sebastian.

"You can wait until next year......" Sebastian whispered, "when your swordsmanship is even better......"

"No! I don't want to wait for next year, I don't want to wait for a day!" the eldest prince touched his wound and straightened his chest, "I want to participate in the team competition in the afternoon and win the team competition." I'm going to win a double championship, I'm going to win a championship earlier than my father was younger, and I'm going to win a double championship!"

"No! that's too dangerous!" squealed the Queen, "even your father didn't compete in the team in the first place. ”

His Majesty the Emperor threw the horn cup at Empress Ivana, and the beer spilled on her and the second prince: "Shut up, if you dare to talk more, I will tell you to taste my fist!"

"But it's too dangerous, the queen is right. Sebastian felt a chill down his spine, and he was disturbed at the thought of the chaos.

The emperor turned his anger into joy, laughter was like thunder, he patted the eldest prince on the shoulder, and said to Sebastian and the others: "Look, this is my son! No one in the Rudolph family is a coward! You want to participate in the team competition, you want to surpass me, no way! I will participate too!"

Sebastian was shocked, and he screamed: "Your Majesty the Emperor, His Royal Highness the Great Prince, it's too dangerous, the safety of the two of you is related to the future of the empire, please think twice!"

The scholar also knelt down and persuaded with a slight trembling: "The queen and the prime minister are right......

"That's a fart!" His Majesty the Emperor hiccuped, "In history, there has never been a royal person participating in a team competition, there has never been a scene of an emperor and a prince participating in the same knightly competition, the hundred years of the empire, the glorious hundred years, I made history with Brandt! As for the champion of the team competition, he wants to be beautiful! Bring me the war hammer! And my plate armor!"

Bill shook his head, sighed, and whispered to Sebastian: "Prime Minister, no matter how much you try to persuade at this time, it is futile. The tempers of father and son are so similar, no one will let anyone, and no one can persuade them. Since they are participating, I will call a few knights of the Imperial Guard to protect them secretly. ”

Sebastian owes himself. His Majesty the Emperor dismissed everyone and asked Sebastian to accompany him for a drink.

"Beer, I chose a dark beer today. His Majesty the Emperor gave Sebastian a horn cup, "You taste it." ”

Sebastian saw that the beer was dark and covered with white foam, and he took a sip, which was a little astringent and a little bitter.

His Majesty the Emperor touched his beer belly, grabbed a piece of pig's trotters, sniffed it, hesitated for a while, and put it down.

"Brandett is like me, with a temper, body, and appearance, all like me when I was younger. His Majesty the Emperor spoke with pride and a little helplessness, "Stubbornness is also like me." ”

You know you're stubborn. Sebastian took the horn cup and whispered, "I think the team competition is too dangerous." Your Majesty still thinks twice. ”

"Tell you, I really like this kid. Dorothy died young, and it would have been nice to see him so heroic now. As he spoke, the Emperor wiped the corners of his eyes, "I envy those wandering knights or bards from the bottom of my heart, whoever they are, they are much freer than me. I sat on the Thunder Throne, facing the civil and military officials every day, and when I returned to the city, I was annoyed to see Ivana and her weak son. If it weren't for the former prime minister telling me that for the sake of the blood of the empire, I would have to think that the eldest prince would encounter an accident, and that he would have to renew his marriage and have a bunch of children, just in case. him, and as a result he introduced Ivana to me, a northerner, daughter of Count Soros, who supposedly loved me since childhood. I wanted to refuse, but the former prime minister said that Count Soros is a large family in the province of Tax, and marrying Ivana will help to consolidate the north. , I don't even have the right to choose marriage, what kind of emperor is I called? As a result, she gave birth to one, and she was still a sick seedling. ”

Ivana says you're drinking too much. Sebastian thought about it and gently placed the horn cup on the table: "In that case, Your Majesty, the team competition is too dangerous......"

"I know the danger. His Majesty the Emperor wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, "The child's temper can't be persuaded either." I can only play in case he is inexperienced and injured or ...... Moreover, the emperor is here, no one dares to move the real character, and when the time comes, I will pretend to lose to him and let him win the championship. ”
