Chapter 135: Entering the Palace

Less than three days after Quinn XIII summoned important ministers, Mars was introduced by Anderson to secretly meet with some of the heirs and masters of the declining family.

These families are basically the last nobles of Sunset City, and they are all the targets of persecution by Queen Bella and the family behind her.

Of course, these low-ranking nobles still have some connections, and Anderson just wants Mars to give these families some hope, and through these families, to convey some information to some big people, especially those ministers who remain neutral.

While neutral ministers would not be of much help to Mars in his succession to the throne, they could rally support at a critical moment.

Three days passed quickly, and after agreeing on a time and place with Dewey, Mars and Audrey arrived at a Quake family manor before dawn.

Du Wei had been waiting for a long time, and next to him were two sets of royal knight uniforms, white and gold-edged, with a royal golden sword embroidered on the collar, which was a miniature version of the "King's Sword".

"Your Highness Mars, these two sets of clothes are for you, let's say okay, you have to dress up as my escort before you can enter the main hall. Du Wei said with a smile.

"Of course, thank you Commander Du Wei!"

Mars thanked him, and immediately went into the room with Audrey to change clothes.

Standing in front of the mirror, Mars smiled as he looked at himself in the uniform of the Royal Knights, and then he put on his helmet again, and his temperament suddenly changed again.

After changing clothes, Mars came out of the room, Audrey was already waiting, glancing at Audrey's chest intentionally or unintentionally, and he sighed in his heart.

And Du Wei was also ready, and said: "Your Highness Mars, if you are ready, we have to go, it is expected that you will meet Your Majesty around ten o'clock in the morning, but remember, Your Majesty is not in a good temper." ”

"Commander Du Wei, I understand, thank you for your support!" Mars smiled.

But there is nothing to do about Du Wei in his heart, because Du Wei helps him conditionally, that is, if Mars inherits the throne, he will have to make him an earl, and the Mars I Quake family cannot be convicted for his words, because Sunset City knows that the people of the Quake family are big mouths, upright personalities, and often offend the majesty of the king, of course, Du Wei is also this kind of character today.

What left Mars speechless the most was that Du Wei wanted Mars to change into a set of clothes as a souvenir.

Just after Mars and the others left, the servants of the manor began to process the clothes left by Mars in the room where Mars was changing, as if they were making animal specimens, they flattened Mars's clothes, fixed them on a large wooden board, and then sealed them with heated rosin.

If Mars saw this, he didn't know how to feel.

Mornings in Sunset City weren't so rosy, the streets smelled foul and oily, and vendors were shouting for breakfast.

Compared to Angela's breakfast stalls, Sunset City is much more monotonous, but it still exudes a mouth-watering fragrance.

However, this was not the time for food, as Mars and Audrey rode their horses and followed Dewey with the rest of the bodyguards, and walked neatly through the streets.

Pedestrians avoided, their cloudy eyes full of awe.

Mars under the helmet had a serious expression, if the Holy City was a living world, then the Seven Kingdoms of Human Beings would probably be a dead world, and the people here had no soul and lacked a vigorous vitality.

He could see fashionably dressed elves walking by with their heads held high in the streets of the Holy City, and he could see ordinary people laughing heartily.

But in the royal capital of mankind, neither Angela nor Sunset City has ever seen these things.

Originally, Mars felt that something was wrong, but at this moment, under the cover of this heavy helmet, through the gap in the helmet, he seemed to gradually understand.

This is not right, the people should not live in fear and pain, but should be free and equal, Mars does not know what the glorious civilization of Lapse was like, but at least he should make Sunset City the same as the Holy City, at least he should make the people smile on their faces.

Not fear and pain, not hypocrisy and bitterness, not patience and numbness.

Qiuqiu's mission may be to make the people's lives better in the process of building the base.

Sunset City Palace.

In contrast to Angela's pyramids, this is a tower-like structure with the Sunset Square in front of the royal palace and a giant statue of the founder of the country, Akes Quinn, in the center.

Today is an important day for the royal family, and it is the day when King Quinn XIII routinely summons his ministers, so there are many people entering the palace, and the carriages and horses are slowly moving forward in a long line.

However, Du Wei is the head of the Royal Knights, and the royal perimeter is guarded by the Royal Knights, so Mars followed Du Wei into the palace soon.

Mars doesn't remember the palace after ten years, and he only has a vague image of some buildings, and he can't name them.

Du Wei rode silently on his horse, leading the way in front, and the palace bell rang, which was the bell that summoned the minister into the great hall.

On the periphery of the palace are the Privy Council, the Astrological Observatory, the Library, the Palace School and other major functional institutions, and the royal family resides in the inner perimeter of the palace.

The Royal Knights guard the outer perimeter of the palace, while the King's Guard guards the inner perimeter.

The rest hall of King Quinn XIII is located at the boundary between the inner and outer periphery of the palace, and is also close to the main hall of the council, which belongs to the area guarded by the Royal Knights.

After walking for about half an hour, Mars and Audrey followed Dewey to the rest hall.

Du Wei said cautiously: "Your Royal Highness Mars, you wait here, at ten o'clock, I will bring Your Majesty over to rest, remember, my gesture, Your Majesty is happy, I will stretch out my thumb, fist to indicate that Your Majesty is not happy, as for the future, I dare not guarantee it, you know, the queen's eyeliner is everywhere." ”

"Thank you, Commander Duvey, but I have to meet my father once anyway!" said Mars earnestly.

Du Wei nodded and reminded: "Remember, don't talk too much here, and don't take off your helmet." ”

Subsequently, Du Wei departed, leaving only Mars and Audrey in the main hall.

Audrey rubbed her legs and said softly, "Mars, this horse riding is really tiring!"

Mars said softly, "Audrey, don't speak, let me be quiet!"

"Oh, got it!" said Audrey, and sat down on the floor, glancing at the inside of the hall, and closing her eyes boredly, she hadn't woken up yet.

Mars, on the other hand, observed every part of the hall, and there were not many furnishings in the hall, but there was a pool in the center, which was filled with hot water, and behind the hall, there was a veil, and behind the veil was a soft collapse.

There are candles in the candlesticks on the walls around the main hall, but they are not lit at the moment, making the whole hall look a little dim.

However, the light of the sky shines into the main hall through the skylight, and it also happens to shine on the pond water, forming a scene of light and shadow.

Mars remembered that he seemed to have come here to play as a child, and he walked slowly to the edge of the pool, and then looked at the corner of the pool, where he remembered that he had carved a letter.
