"This guy is really arrogant!"
Gu Arno II is now very annoyed, the Sea Tribe's envoy attitude is very bad, in front of everyone to reprimand the Imperial Navy and ask them to hand over the Governor of Cankula Harbor Hisali Chelfer, if not, he will send troops to attack Kankula Harbor, you must know that in order to welcome the foreign envoy, he specially summoned the Manchu Dynasty civil and military to greet him, this kind of national gift will only appear in the face of a respectable country, Gu Arno II saw that the Sea Clan and the Saran Empire have close economic contacts for so many years and the other party is also very strong. I didn't expect the other party to give no face at all.
This is simply an insult to the dignity of a country!
"Your Majesty, although the envoy is unreasonable, once we ossify with the Sea Clan, the consequences will be quite serious, their military strength is very strong, it is not good to offend the Sea Clan for the sake of Miss Chelfer." Seeing that the emperor's emotions were on the verge of getting out of control, the Minister of the Interior, Luo An, stepped forward to admonish, and when Duke Chelfer heard this, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, but he did not directly go forward to argue but waited for the next response of Guano II.
"Loann Mellen, you have been in the position of Home Secretary for more than forty years, and you are considered my old-timer, you should be able to see some problems in this situation, if the Sea Clan is really reasonable, they need to be so unreasonable? Even before the matter is clarified, he directly scolded, isn't this trying to rely on momentum to overwhelm the other party in order to cover up his own weakness? He even scolded him directly in my palace, and with this, I directly ordered him to be arrested. Gu Arnold II's eyes were cold, and Luo An trembled under his gaze.
"But we can't take any chances, we must know that the Sea Clan's military strength is superior to ours...
"Loan! Have you forgotten who saved your son? At that time, after he was saved, he accused Miss Chelfer for no reason, and you have been so cowardly in the position of Secretary of State for more than forty years? "Suddenly speaking out is Marshal Dares, the vice chairman of the Military Council of the Saran Empire, he is an absolute hawk, he almost didn't resist the desire to draw his sword when the Sea Clan envoy rebuked the Imperial Navy before, although after entering the palace, all the generals wore honor swords, but if you want to break out and hurt people, you can do it.
"I just don't want to see the country ruined by you people who don't do things through your brains!" Luo An also did not give in, and the atmosphere in the palace was very tense for a while, the status of the two was second only to the emperor, and the contradictions between them were not dared to be intervened by ordinary officials.
"Then I would like to ask Your Excellency Meren, if it was really Hisalie's doing, what kind of actions should the Sea Clan take now?" Duke Cerfer's angry voice rang out, if it weren't for the fact that this was the palace, he really wanted to do it, even if Loan's status was higher than him.
"What do you mean, Your Excellency?"
"If it was really Hisali who murdered the nephew of the six princes of the Sea Clan, what the Sea Clan would do now is to send someone to submit a protest document to His Excellency Knorres, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and the two sides will jointly investigate and adjudicate the matter, if it is really unbearable, it should be now to restrict the trade between the two sides, and even the border between the city soldiers, of course, it is only the life of the nephew of the sixth prince of the Sea Clan, it is not enough to come to this point, no matter what, it is impossible to send someone over and scold directly, are you right?"
"Yes, so what, Your Excellency's daughter is also not worth making us enemies with the Sea Clan." Loan responded, at first glance it seemed that he was looking at the big picture, but it didn't feel quite right in light of the previous situation.
"Then Luoan, can you see the purpose of the Sea Clan's envoy?" After listening to the argument between the three of them, Gu Arno II said: "If I had just done it, it would have given the Sea Clan a chance to start a war, and now they dare not do it, because they have close trade contacts with most human countries, and if they do not declare war, it will definitely make other countries fearful." ”
"What Your Majesty said is true, so you didn't order him to be arrested just so as not to make enemies with the Sea Clan."
"It's not that I don't want to, what he does now is equivalent to a slap in the face in our Saran Empire, if we don't fight back, we won't have the face to see the emperors after death, but we can't give them an excuse to send troops, if they want to fight, they will fight, now what we have to do is to restrict our economic exchanges with them and inform the world of the Sea Clan's actions."
"Wouldn't that make the whole world see our joke!?" Knores hurriedly came up and dissuaded: "I can send someone to negotiate with the Sea Clan, what is needed most now is to find out the truth first, if they are rude, then it is not too late to issue countermeasures." ”
"It's true that the daylilies were cold at that time, and I have read Miss Cherfer's report this time, and it has the signature of the head of Manov, and Manov has always been highly appreciated by Marshal Leon, and I trust Leon's vision," Guano II took a sip of tea and continued: "The ship that Hisalie was on in her fight against pirates was blown out of a large hole, and she then used magic to freeze the ship to prevent it from sinking, and the Sea Clan was frozen in the cabin, It is conceivable that he entered the cabin for what purpose, but the explosion before was most likely related to him, and then self-destructing his soul was even more of a self-defeating act. ”
"But that's just one side of the story from the Kankula port... Luo An wanted to say something, but fell silent after seeing the emperor's gesture.
"Needless to say, I've made up my mind. Knores immediately went to draft an article accusing the Sea Tribe's envoys of the arrogant behavior, I want to see what tricks they will play, maybe they will show their feet, the leaders of other countries are not fools, and Dares," Guano II paused: "The coastal army is in a state of combat readiness, ready to meet the attack of the Sea Clan, as for the port of Kankula, there will also be additional sea patrol troops, if the Sea Clan wants to attack, it is very likely that the Sea Clan will land there first, after all, they can also make up some reasons for fighting after occupying it, For example, I found something in the port. ”
"Yes!" The two nodded, and then the two of them turned around and left the palace, Dareth deliberately glanced at him when he passed by Luo An, and the killing intent in his eyes also made some of the officials around him who noticed it break out in a cold sweat, Darez has a more extreme style, he hates doves extremely much, especially when the country is insulted, the dovish remarks can arouse his killing intent, if he wants to do something to Luoan, it is really a big deal, of course, he is also extremely loyal, as long as Gu Arnold II does not say that he can also hold his emotions.
