It was only a hundred paces away, but it took Edgar, the Imperial Interior Secretary, a full ten minutes to cross it. This is not because His Majesty the Emperor www.biquge.info number one henchman wants to be lazy, in fact, everyone knows that this Minister of the Interior has always been known in the political arena for his efficiency.

The reason why he wasted so much time on the road was just because the identity of the person he wanted to meet was so special.

It was his master, His Majesty Charles XVI, Emperor Charles XVI, who was the ruler of the world's most powerful country, that Edgar wanted to see.

After three rounds of interrogations by elite soldiers, Scarlet Knights, and court guards, Edgar was allowed to enter the Emperor's tent.

Not only that, but the moment he walked into this big tent, the Imperial Interior Minister also clearly felt two cold gazes that seemed to be like substance swept over his body, as if to warn him not to have any rash thoughts.

If such treatment was on weekdays, then Edgar would only think that His Majesty the Emperor was making too much of a fuss. But today, from the point of view of a loyal servant, he would even wish that Charles XVI's side would be as tightly defended as possible.

Similar to His Majesty's Imperial Study, there is also a desk in the center of the tent. It must be admitted that although there are many controversies and mysteries about His Majesty Charles XVI, at least he is indeed a diligent emperor.

Edgar did not dare to slack off, walked two steps to the desk, bent his waist deeply, and performed a standard courtier etiquette: "Your Majesty Charles XVI the Great Conqueror, your most loyal servant Edgar may victory always be with you, and may the grave of your enemies always fly with red flags." ”

It's a standard and impeccable sycophant.

Although Charles XVI's achievements in the mainland during his reign were only two counties of the Kingdom of France in the northeast, the expeditionary force of the Spany Empire on the overseas western continent was a success, defeating the combined armies of the Jimny Empire and the Itari Kingdom several times in a row, allowing the Spany Empire to include half of the western continent in its sphere of influence.

From this point of view, the words "conqueror" and "victory" are undoubtedly appropriate, and as for the "red flag", of course, it refers to the flag of the Sbanney Empire.

In just one sentence, he not only praised His Majesty the Emperor's immortal martial arts, but also praised Charles XVI's outstanding civil rule.

However, even with such intentions, Edgar's sycophant was only exchanged for a faint "um" word, and it seemed that His Majesty the Emperor behind the desk did not seem to be in the mood to enjoy this sycophant that could at least win a smile on weekdays.

"Sit down." From behind the desk came the voice of Charles XVI.

If it was on a normal day, then Edgar would have immediately refused His Majesty's request, because standing to report would be more humble to His Majesty.

But when Edgar heard this, he immediately found a chair and sat down, for the Home Secretary had already known the answer he wanted to know through the tentative sycophant he had just made - His Majesty seemed to be in a worse mood tonight than he had guessed.

At this time, Charles XVI needed not a loyal courtier, but an obedient dog.

Speculation has always been one of the most basic means to gain a foothold in officialdom. There is no doubt that Edgar has done a very successful job at this point.

"Have you ever checked the results?" His Majesty's majestic words reached Edgar's ears.

Edgar bowed slightly, and said, "I basically have some eyebrows, I don't know what Your Majesty wants to hear first?" ”

His Majesty the Emperor hesitated slightly, and then said, "What is the reaction of the church?" ”

Edgar thought for a moment and said, "There has been no reaction from the Pope's side for the time being, and Bishop Gavin went to the Inquisition as soon as possible, and it seems that he had a meeting with Cheeto, but according to our internal speculation, Bishop Gavin does not seem to have gotten what he hoped for in this meeting." ”

His Majesty the Emperor let out a sneer and said, "Enhil, the Pope, is really more and more like an old turtle, and he is still afraid when disaster comes. Gavin, a careerist, is no better than Enhill, and he doesn't want to think that even the Pope can't intervene in the Inquisition for so many years, and a mere god can make Cheedo bow his head and be Gavin's dog? It's naïve. ”

Edgar nodded, "What Your Majesty said is extremely true. In general, there is no movement on the part of the three major ecclesiastical forces, including the Pope, Bishop Gavin, and the Inquisition. ”

Charles XVI pondered for a moment, then asked, "What about the rest?" ”

Edgar thought for a moment, then replied, "The ten most elite masters of the Golden Lion Family have already set off from Lionheart City, and it is expected that they will be able to reach Ridmar City the night after tomorrow. The elite of the Paul family is also being mobilized, and it seems that Duke Leanne and Prime Minister Paul seem to be secretly planning something. ”

Edgar's words are a bit heart-wrenching. Two important ministers of the empire were secretly planning a certain action without the knowledge of His Majesty the Emperor? There is one word that immediately comes to mind for anyone, and that is coup d'état.

From this, it is clear that Edgar is no longer satisfied with the position of Home Secretary. And if he wants to go further, Edgar must overturn the biggest stumbling block in front of him, Prime Minister Paul, so that he can sit on the throne of Prime Minister in his place.

As for bringing Duke Lean into the mix, it's just because Edgar doesn't want to make the purpose too obvious. Everyone knows the status of the Golden Lion Family in the hearts of successive Emperor Spannes, and it is not known whether Duke Lean's action was at the behest of His Majesty the Emperor.

His Majesty the Emperor was silent for a while after hearing the news, then let out a long sigh and said, "Regarding this matter, you don't want to continue to investigate, let them do whatever they want, understand?" ”

This was obviously a surprise to Edgar, so much so that the Home Secretary, who was known for his composure, could not help but lose his face for a moment. But Edgar quickly adjusted, and replied respectfully, as usual, "Yes, Your Majesty." ”

Charles XVI continued to ask, "Is there any more information about this Blood Demon Moon?" ”

Edgar replied, "All incognito dark cultists in the empire are under surveillance, and nothing has been detected at this time. If I find out that the demon king who teleported to this world is in contact with them, I will immediately come and report to Your Majesty. ”

"Hmm." Charles XVI pondered for a moment and said, "Tomorrow I will arrest and kill a few of them to appease people's hearts, understand?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Edgar answered. I don't know how many pairs of eyes have been seen by the moon being swallowed, and it is absolutely impossible to conceal it, so it is necessary to find a few substitutes for the dead ghosts to give an explanation to the panicked ignorant masses.

"By the way, Your Majesty, there is one more thing." Edgar, who was about to retire, suddenly said: "According to my spy's report, there seems to be some affection between Princess Bella and Leo, the deity of the church, you see..."

Even if he is a favorite of His Majesty the Emperor, Edgar actually doesn't know what Charles XVI plans for this princess niece now, but Edgar knows that His Majesty the Emperor is actually quite concerned about Princess Bela, so he asked this question.

After a long time, a sigh came from behind the desk: "This child, how can she have the same personality as her mother... ”
