Chapter 413: History of the Continent
Terrence was never a dreamer. 『』[It is more convenient for mobile phone users to directly visit wèn手机版dashubao to read novels!] Even if you send troops to Winterfall, you will do what you say. This attack on the city-state of ale was no exception. What surprised Vanessa even more was that he actually designated himself to supervise the country after he left and handle all the government affairs.
It seems that he is beginning to accept and trust himself. Vanessa couldn't help but squint as she watched the king's flag and men in the distance. No, he won't just hand over the country to me so lightly, he must have set up an ambush for me somewhere, using the unknown table xiàn as a trigger point, and killing me with one blow!
Who could it be? Vanessa's skeptical gaze swept to Terrence's Imperial Council. Sir Thomas, loyal to the Empire? Greedy Franklin? Or is it the newly promoted captain of the guard of Yu Lian, who is good friends with him?
Vanessa shook her head, throwing the thoughts out of her mind. If I always look at things with such doubts and fears, I will never be a good ruler.
Vanessa ignored anything else and focused only on restoring people's livelihoods. If the sword and the bread could only be chosen, I believe that all the subjects of the empire would choose the latter, because the sword would not fill their stomachs, and the bread would sustain their most basic needs for life. She drove all the king's mistresses out of the city and sold their luxury goods to the rich merchants, and all the money was used to repair the slums, a move that was unanimously supported by everyone, except for one object, that is, Lord York from the northern town, and his daughter was none other than Lexie, who had insulted Vanessa in the main hall? York.
"This has caused panic in the palace, and we shouldn't go on!" The Duke of York had the same plump figure as his daughter, and his voice was not lacking in tactfulness, but the slender and high-pitched tone that emanated from such a large belly could not help but make people wonder if his supposed loud abdominal resonance had been squeezed into the current male duck voice by a huge appetite.
"Expelling them, that's what the king means." Maester Gabriel pondered his words, it was clear that he was on the queen's side, but Vanessa always felt that his words were more informative, more sinister.
"Is it the king's meaning, or is it the woman's meaning?" York's cacophony was like a knife cutting through a stone, and he stood up and pointed to Vanessa's face, "She's in power, can't you see it?" This woman from the country in the middle of summer wants to control the lifeblood of our Burning Flame Country step by step, are you all blind? ”
Vanessa sat on the throne and looked at the thunderous Duke with interest, thinking about how to fight back. The more excited the opponent is, the more obvious the flaws will be. Vanessa felt that it was easiest to work at ease.
The Duke of Fire Dragon Village was still chattering and cursing, but Vanessa had already begun to look for answers on the faces of the courtiers of the Imperial Council. This is a great opportunity to tell from their expressions which enemies are watching from afar, and which are potential allies to fight for.
“…… Did she seduce our king and eat you too? Why don't you rise up against this enchantress? The Duke of York was foaming at the mouth, not taking Vanessa in the slightest.
"Well, Lord Duke, please let me interject." Maester Gabriel bowed forward and lowered his gaze cautiously, "I think your personal vendetta against the queen seems to have affected your judgment of state affairs at this moment. This kind of thing is often happening in all dynasties and generations, not to mention that King Terrence also gave a similar order before leaving. If you disagree on the matter, we can put it on record and wait for the king's triumphant return; But if you are upset that the queen has distributed the wealth of the palace people to the poor, I don't think the Imperial Council can support your words. Because your own daughter, Lady Lexie, had a similar dispute with the King, and now that your actions are suspicious of revenge against the Queen, it is not appropriate for you to participate in the discussion of this matter. ”
Everyone nodded yes, so the Duke of York became even more angry, and his originally snow-white face turned crimson, "You, you are all bewitched by this witch!" You-"
"Bachelor." Vanessa looked at him to stop him from continuing to argue with York.
He's erecting barriers between me and York, Vanessa thought. Every word of Master Gabriel is contrary to the road of peace, if he tears his face with the Fire Dragon Village, what he will lose will be the important port and river lifeline north of the Burning Flame Country, and the greater threat behind York comes from the heavy oil spring under the Fire Dragon Village! Legend has it that the Heavy Oil Fountain came from ancient times, when humans exhausted all their resources, leaving only the Heavy Oil Fountain of the Burning Flame Country. At that time, the world was in chaos, and every country had exhausted everything in the struggle for hegemony, but the Burning Flame Country was in a scorched earth and no one cared about it; Finally, some countries used the ultimate weapon, the nuclear bomb, and completely changed the fate of mankind. After the end of the nuclear war, the earth changed its trajectory, the sun no longer rose in the east, and the disorder of the ecosystem once made human beings extinct from the earth, but there were always a small number of people who survived and survived in the harshest environment, they survived the severe winter of up to a hundred years, and the atmospheric ashes that had been dispersed for thousands of years, and finally, they decided to return to their homeland, and decided not to rely on chemistry and technology again, but only to live a small life of their own farming and mulberry fields, so the earth gradually regained its former vitality in the hands of new humans. These are the magical humans who now inhabit the continent of Europs. Among these people, there will always be a small number of people who still inherit the legacy of the ancient ancestors, guarding and defending some secrets that no one can think of, and the heavy oil spring of Huolongzhai is among them.
The House of York, like the House of Julien, held the mysteries of ancient technology, so even if Terrence was tired of York's brutal daughter, he would not dare to act on it. And Vanessa dared to touch the tiger's buttocks, in fact, she used her first management of national politics as a cover to remove the nails entrenched in the heavy oil spring for Terrence.
