Chapter 607: The Monarch and the Minister
Strange to say, the Victory Palace is obviously the place where the Empress's father, Charles XVI, was assassinated, but the new Empress chose the Victory Palace as the office location after the destruction of the King's Palace. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Some say that this is because Her Majesty wants to be vigilant, others say that it is because Her Majesty wants her father's heroic soul to always be with her, but there are many opinions around this, but no one dares to raise this question to Her Majesty's face.
To be honest, since Her Majesty has spent most of her adult life in the ocean and overseas colonies, the nobles of Ridmar may not even know as well as the colonial slaves on the other side of the ocean.
One thing is certain, however, that people may not know about Her Majesty's past experiences, but it is absolutely impossible not to know her new name.
Duke Habs came to the high platform in the hall with a steady step, and knelt down on one knee and saluted: "Great Theresa I, Habs has been ordered to come and listen to your orders. ”
Since she is the first empress of the empire, she is naturally "I".
The voice of the former princess of the Empire, or the current Teresa I, came from the high platform: "Lord Duke, you don't need to be so polite, please get up. ”
If any of the great nobles of the Empire were standing here, he would have been shocked by the "you" that Teresa I had spoken.
The word "you" is undoubtedly an honorific, a word that is usually used when juniors face elders and subordinates face superiors.
Of course, Duke Habs could not have been Her Majesty's superior, so Theresa I actually treated Duke Habs as an elder.
This is, of course, because of the marriage contract between Theresa I and Viscount Juan, the son of Duke Habs, but it must be pointed out that none of the first sixteen emperors of the empire called their father-in-law "you", but "you".
The mere word "you" is enough to explain the status of Duke Habs in the heart of Theresa I.
But Duke Habs did not feel any pride in this, but thanked Her Majesty very seriously and earnestly before standing up.
The movements were so fluid and formal that even the most demanding court etiquette teachers could not find fault with the Habs's behavior.
Pampering and arrogance is the greatest way to take death, there is an old saying in the ancient East, "The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it." "Duke Habs knows very well that he and the Blood Wolf Family are the most towering trees in the forest of countless noble families in the empire at this moment, and every move is watched by countless people, and any behavior mistake may be regarded as some kind of signal.
The more times like this, the more you should tremble and not make a mistake, which is why even though the marriage contract received in the past two days was enough to fill half of the Blood Wolf Family Mansion, the Duke of Habs still did not decide on any family affairs.
Because even the Duke didn't know what was going on in the heart of the future daughter-in-law, the Empress in front of him.
If a reckless family affair is decided, and the future in-laws happen to be the object of Teresa I's desire to clean up, the consequences could not be worse.
To the surprise of Duke Habs, Her Majesty the Empress was the first to talk about this matter: "Lord Duke, I heard that the people who have come to your Blood Wolf Family Mansion to propose marriage in the past few days have already stepped through the threshold of the gate?" ”
Duke Habs replied, "Yes, Your Majesty. ”
Theresa I's words suddenly had a hint of ridicule: "But I also heard that you haven't even decided on a marriage, is it because you are not very satisfied with the partners of these marriages?" ”
Duke Habs was obviously prepared for this question, and immediately replied: "Back to Your Majesty, in fact, the old minister has been picky in the past two days, and he doesn't even know which lord he wants to marry. However, now the whole country knows that Her Majesty the Empress is as wise as a torch, so the minister has the courage to beg Her Majesty the Empress to give the old minister some guidance. ”
Teresa I smiled slightly and said, "This is the Duke's family matter, although I am the emperor, how can I interfere at will?" ”
Duke Habs immediately knelt down and said, "This is exactly the blessing that the old minister and the blood wolf family can't ask for, and I ask Your Majesty to give the old minister some guidance." ”
"Since the Duke is looking forward to it so earnestly, I can't spoil your interest." After pondering for a while, Teresa I spoke: "I have heard that there are quite a few women in the Golden Lion Family and the Ice Bear Family who are of the first class in appearance and character, and the Duke might as well choose two of them as daughters-in-law, and I will be there to congratulate them when the wedding comes." As for the rest, I think it's still early, and the Duke doesn't have to rush to marry so many relatives at once, you say? ”
Duke Habs did not hesitate to make a big salute: "Thank you for your majesty's guidance, the old minister and the blood wolf family are grateful." ”
If Leo were standing here, Leo would have been very surprised, for he would have found that the tone in which Duke Habs and Teresa I spoke was completely different from the way the three of them were discussing every day at the State Guesthouse before the dust of the battle for the throne had settled.
However, this is actually understandable, after all, the relationship between the Marquis of Habs and Her Royal Highness the eldest princess at that time was only an ally, but now the relationship between Theresa I and the Duke of Habs is that of a monarch.
There are too many founding heroes who can't see through this, and after dominating the world, they can't get rid of the habit of hooking up with His Majesty the Emperor and calling them brothers, and they completely forget to change their identities, which leads to a bad end in the end.
Now that Her Majesty the Empress has spoken, the matter of the marriage contract has come to an end, and the two monarchs and ministers naturally began to move on to the next issue.
I only heard Teresa I say: "Lord Duke, is there any news from the Holy See?" ”
Two full days have passed, and in addition to the battle for the throne in the city of Ridmar, the great battle that took place in the Holy See also shocked the whole world, and because the leaders of the two sides in the Holy See battle, Pope Enshir and Bishop Gavin, died together, which made countless speculations about this incident on the mainland.
Due to the special relationship between the Church of Light and the Spany Empire, coupled with the friendship between Leo, the deity of the Church, and the two monarchs and ministers in the Victory Palace at this moment, there is no doubt that the Spany Empire is extremely concerned about the movements of the Church, and it can even be said that it is the country that pays the most attention to the Church of Light.
After Empress Teresa came to power, the command of the secret organization of the Spanne Empire, which was originally under the control of the Minister of the Interior Edgar, fell into the hands of Duke Habs, who has actually become the new intelligence chief of the Sbanney Empire, so of course Her Majesty will ask him about intelligence.
Duke Habs said: "Your Majesty, the spies have just sent two latest news, the first is that the head of the Knights of the Wings of Light, General Biedrins, has been assassinated in the barracks, and his life and death are uncertain, and the other is a rumor that it is said that the god of the Church of Light, Leo, is actually a fake. ”
