The midday sun casts on the rolling Floyne Hills, creating a golden crown on which Windsor Castle sits like the brightest jewel in the crown. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

A few chaffinchs soar merrily among the snow-white towers, and they have been nesting here for so long that even a castle of this magnitude will not let them get lost.

The tired little chaffinch stopped on the top of the largest fort with its ochre-red chest, its small paw toes lightly stepping on the turquoise tiles, and its head spun in circles, as if confused under the eaves, what were the people in the house discussing?

"I'm sure you've heard of King Bardot's tax hike on the lords of all France. Marquis Ryan continued what he had just said.

"Regardless of the reason for the tax increase, I have no way of knowing what the Lazy King thinks. The old marquis's ridiculous tone amused many people present, for the mediocre monarch of the famous continent of the Kingdom of France, except for the lazy king himself who sat paralyzed in Schönbrunn Palace all day, no one knew about it.

"But I think there will be a big problem with the collection of this tax—" said the Marquis of Lane with a mysterious wink, as if deliberately to appetize:

"My son, in a letter to me, mentioned that some time ago at a dinner party in Roosendaal he got a message by chance. Miles puffed up his chest, and when his father mentioned himself, he noticed that many people's eyes were focused on him.

Suddenly he felt both excited and nervous, and hurriedly sat upright, trying to maintain the grace and indifference that a nobleman should have, and smiled in response to the others whose gaze swept over.

"It is said that in the northwest, the taxes in the territory of the Grand Duke of Perrin are not good, which makes His Majesty Badot lose his temper in front of the imperial ministers. ”

"Hehe, the Saliks of Grannes Hill are never easy to deal with, and I think old Bardot is going to shoot himself in the foot, hahaha-" Flory interjected, as if anxious to show how well he knew the intricacies of the relationship.

Miles was slightly disdainful, and suddenly his evaluation of the high-ranking Maier family son also dropped a notch, and he thought: No wonder it is always Miss Leonie who is in power in the Chamber of Commerce, even with the support of Archduke Conrad, if there is a figure like Florey by his side, where can Felix fight against the eldest lady?

There is a reason why Miles is not convinced, for him, who has grown up in Fran since birth, no one who thinks that anyone sitting upright in this spacious house knows the of Fran's palace better than him, including this long-standing contradiction.

"Don't you stink there, boy, aren't you the same as Poole?" Hilton, who was sitting across from Flory, sarcastically sarcastically mocked him as if he had come today specifically to find the little master of the Meyer family.

"You're ......!" Flory was so angry that he slapped the table with his right hand, which was wearing a luxurious light leather glove, and tried to stand up again, but was gently pressed on the shoulder by the man with thin eyebrows and mustache on the left, Anze Corbetta.

"What do you see...... Hmm......" Corbetta didn't speak, but looked at Hilton with a pair of soft, narrow eyes like a woman, which made the Pirate Empress a little displeased, and she slapped the table with both hands and was about to jump.

An arm wrapped in silver armor stood in front of the woman, and Rodford Blanc glanced at Anzer Corbetta from afar, and then the two of them undid the two young men's hands and turned their heads away.

Flory lowered his hands, squeezed his glove-wrapped fist, and turned his head away from looking at the other side, and Hilton leaned silently against the back of his chair, whistling as if nothing had happened.

Marquis Ryan smiled slightly, as if he had not seen the dispute between the two groups, and continued:

"I think most of you here are Poole legal persons, and they are well aware of the contradictions between Pulfa and Salik, and this time I think that the territory of Purfa will not be peaceful. ”

Miles nodded, this is what he wrote to his father in the letter, the Saliks in the northwest of the Kingdom of France have always been in conflict with other lords, especially after the death of the previous queen Colleen Perrin, this contradiction has intensified, and the Perrin family even withdrew the husband's surname of the eldest daughter's suffix, which is undoubtedly a slap in the face of the Bardot family, and the hatred may have deepened at that time.

Speaking of which, Worms is actually sandwiched between the two factions of the Kingdom of Fran, which can be regarded as the king's line, and has a reason to be friends with the Perrin family.

Miles frowned, listening to his father's narration as he speculated about what the eldest lady would decide.

The reason why Worms can be counted as a king is mainly because unlike the Archduke of Perrin in the northwest, which is dominated by Saliks, the other three realms of the kingdom are all Poole legal persons, and most of Worms' families, including Conrad and Mayer, are also Poole legal persons.

At the same time, Worms was able to become friends with the Perrin family because Conrad and Perrin used to belong to the same country.

The wise and powerful Victor the Great overthrew the West Asian Menes, and the "Romantic Empire", a huge empire established on the west side of the southern continent, was once incomparable, and dominated the south together with the East Asian Menes.

However, no one could have imagined that after the death of the Emperor, the great empire would collapse and be divided into three parts. Obertan in the north is still strong, but the southern flange is gradually declining, and the kingdom of Loland, once one of the three kingdoms, has long since disappeared.

The land was divided between Obertan and Fran, and some was bought by the Papal States, and finally the original Lorain nobles were probably only the Grand Duke of Perran, who was incorporated into the Kingdom of Fran, and the Conrad family, who ruled Worms.

"As mentioned above, I have just notified you of the matter urgently, and I hope that the Chamber of Commerce can prepare as soon as possible. After the Marquis's words were finished, he sat back down beside Miles and woke him from his reverie, and suddenly raised his head to look at the eldest lady who was sitting on the throne with a slight frown.

"The Guild once lent 150,000 golden roses to the royal family of Bardot—" Susie Conrad, who was sitting on the right-hand side, unhurriedly, took out a large and heavy notebook out of nowhere, opened it and said to the crowd:

"Now I should repay a total of 250,000 gold roses with interest," she said with some concern, looking up at her sister:

"If the Francois put their income into a war this year, their financial resources will not be enough to repay the loan, and if the war does not go well, I am afraid that they will not even be able to pay the interest this year. ”

"That means we could lose money, right?" Leonie asked lightly as she propped her elbows on the smooth tabletop and crossed her hands in front of her coldly.

"I think so—" replied Susie

The atmosphere in the room froze for a second, and Miles could hear the sound of the head of the line next to him inhaling the cool air in his mouth, "losing money" was simply the last word the members of Platinum Amber wanted to hear.

"Then we'll help His Majesty the Emperor of Schönbrunn Palace," Leonie suddenly laughed happily, lowered her hands, and tapped her fingers rhythmically on the table.

"Flange has a lot more than gold coins that are worth staking and exchanging, remember - Susie, no one can make platinum amber lose money!"

At the last sentence, Leonie's voice plummeted as cold snow on Mount Grannes.
