Things in the world are best laughed at and not washed away with tears.

– Rabindranath Tagore (Indian poet, philosopher, and Indian nationalist)

In the calm imperial capital, three powerful saint-level powerhouses suddenly appeared, and there was a fierce conflict with the guards of the Kulen family and the warriors of the Golden Guard;

Compared with other nobles in the imperial capital who had nothing to do with themselves, Duke Cullen, who was the first to get the news, didn't even go to the point of the incident, so he rushed straight to the palace to report this sudden accident to Charlemagne in the palace.

The imperial capital of the Tianlong Empire is not only the economic and political center of the empire, but also the foundation of Charlemagne and the imperial family.

Ames's secret guard, at least one-tenth of the core members are distributed in the imperial capital, this is only one of the many forces that Charlemagne controls the imperial capital, and other powers, whether light or dark, in the hands of Charlemagne are also not a few in the imperial capital.

It's just that a trivial matter such as the robbery of a people's daughter by a core member of a powerful family like Fitztierer would not be reported to Charlemagne at all, because Charlemagne could not have dealt with his brother-in-law harshly for the sake of a commoner woman.

Even if Charlemagne had more than one wife, and there were even more royal relatives related to him, it was still impossible for him to punish the imperial relatives for the sake of the common people, so neither secret forces such as the Secret Guard, nor the imperial officials, would report such a thing.

However, the appearance of the three saint-level powerhouses was enough to make everyone in the imperial capital tense their nerves, especially the three saint-level powerhouses of unknown origin who suddenly appeared, which had already had a fierce conflict with the Kulen family, which made those in the know dare not delay in the slightest.

Just when the three saint-level powerhouses were massacring the Cullen family guards and the gold-clothed guards, Ames had already come to Charlemagne's study with the urgent information of the hidden guard;

Ames, who did not dare to listen, planned to retreat immediately, but found that Charlemagne was signaling him to stay with his eyes, so Ames, who was full of doubts, stood respectfully in the corner of the study, and listened to the conversation between Charlemagne and the cardinal archbishop without saying a word.

"Your Majesty Charlie, even if Fitzterer is your brother-in-law, we cannot accept his malicious harm to Charlotte and Charlore. The cardinal, who had a kind face, said unusually bluntly: "He must pay for his actions!"

"Your Excellency Bishop Scola, I believe that His Holiness the Pope has sent you and his two Highnesses here with goodwill and friendship. Charlemagne, with an unhealed look on his face, asked rhetorically in an undeniable tone: "Why should we be unhappy about a trivial matter?"

"A trivial matter?!" Bishop Scora, who almost jumped up, said in an indignant tone: "Fitzteler of your country, almost beat our Highness Charlotte to death, and tried to defile our Highness Charlotte, this is a trivial matter?!!!"

"Is the matter as serious as you say?" Charlemagne, who frowned slightly, turned his head to Ames in the corner and asked, "Ames, do you know the conflict between Fitzteler and the two highnesses of the Holy See?"

"Your Majesty, Weichen came here this time to report this matter to you. After all, Ames, who knew that telling the truth to his face would be detrimental to the empire, still told Fitztier, Charolle, and Charlotte about it.

"How can this be reasonable!" Knowing that Fetzteler really robbed the Holy See Holy Maiden in the street and almost killed the Holy See Holy Son, Charlemagne was extremely angry: "Who gave Fetzteler the power to dare to commit murder on the streets of the imperial capital? Ames, you will arrest him immediately!"

"No!" the angry Charlemagne made Ames, who was in a state of heart, hurry down to answer the order.

"Wait!" Hearing Charlemagne say this, Bishop Scola stopped him by saying: "Your Majesty Charles, Fitztierr's harm to our two Highnesses, our Holy See will personally investigate it, and I hope Your Majesty can give our Holy See this opportunity." ”

"This ......" Charlemagne, who was reluctant to let the Holy See interfere in the affairs of his empire, refused with a weak attitude: "After all, Fetzteler is a nobleman of our country, and if it is punished by the Holy See, it is not suitable after all, so let's do it ourselves." ”

The reason why Charlemagne did not directly refuse the request made by Bishop Scola was because what Fetzteler had done this time was indeed excessive and he was at a loss first, and on the other hand, because of the Holy See's recent assistance to the Celestial Dragon Empire.

"Your Majesty, Charlore and Charlotte are no ordinary sons and daughters, they are the most beloved grandsons and granddaughters of His Holiness the Pope, and if this matter is not properly resolved, then our Holy See will reconsider its relations with your country. ”

Before leaving the Holy See, he had promised the Pope that he would protect the two Highnesses, and in order to get justice for the two Highnesses who were almost killed, he was ready to give up all the Holy See's investments in the Dragon Empire.

"You ......" Charlemagne, who has been on the throne for twenty years, how could he have been so threatened? Furious, he just wanted to walk away, but he had to hold back the anger in his heart, because at this time, the Celestial Dragon Empire really needed the assistance of the Holy See.

In the province of Nice, the closest to the Sunset Fortress to the east of the Empire, there is also a Templar Order from the Holy See, which will serve as a mainstay if the orc army launches another attack on the Empire.

More importantly, without the Holy See's mediation, the Celestial Dragon Empire, which was caught in a two-front war, would inevitably be attacked by the surrounding neighbors who were ready to move;

"Well, I promise to hand Fitztimeler over to your Holy See. After struggling for a long time, Charlemagne, who sighed silently in his heart, said in a gloomy tone: "But you must guarantee that Fitzteler will never be executed, this is my final bottom line!"

"That's nature!" Bishop Scola, who had achieved his goal, agreed to Charlemagne's request without even thinking about it.

After Cardinal Scola left, Charlemagne, who was more and more angry about it, finally could not restrain the anger burning more and more in his heart, and smashed all the precious antiques in the study;

Duke Cullen and Prince William, who happened to hit the muzzle of the gun, were already inextricably linked to the Feztimel incident; if it weren't for the help of the Cullen family's guards and Prince William's golden guard, how could Feztier hurt the powerful Holy Son Charole?

The unfortunate Duke of Cullen and Prince William were first scolded by the enraged Charlemagne, and then, Duke Cullen's title was demoted from Duke of the Empire to Marquis of the Empire, and Prince William's Golden Guard was ordered to be dissolved on the spot!

Coupled with the demotion of Duke Cullen, the remarks about Prince William's loss of the qualification to compete for the heir to the throne and the loss of the trust of the Marquis of Cullen were all over the imperial capital for a while.
