Chapter 259 Secret Fight!
Accept the task of the imperial capital, crusade and crush the war with a thunderous version, put down the foreign rebellion that has been plaguing the north of the empire, General Estes, who was once hand-picked by the first emperor, and the king of the empire - Lord Chen Xiaoyao, the former minister who also has a very good relationship - Qiao Li, entered the palace to meet the little emperor together.
Moreover, this Lord Jolly, when he entered the imperial capital, announced on the street that he was risking his life this time to fight with Minister Earnest.
In the face of such crazy news that can blow up the 'struggle' and 'future' of almost all the people in the imperial capital, the people from the top and bottom of the imperial capital inside and outside are all watching.
The former Chancellor Jolly and the current Chancellor Earnest are almost completely opposites, representing the two factions of this ancient empire.
Headed by the former minister Jolly, the conscientious faction who is diligent in government and loves the people, and truly wholeheartedly serves the empire and the people of the empire.
and, led by the present minister Earnest -- the corrupt faction who brought disaster to the country and the people, and did everything to satisfy their own selfish desires, and did not care about others and the country.
The people of the conscience basically have great prestige among the people of the empire, but under the blow of Earnest, all of them are very weak, especially Jolly, in addition to his huge prestige now, what he can mobilize is nothing more than his own guards.
And the people of the Corrupt faction, although these people are very feared by the people of the empire, there is no doubt that these people, with the help of Earnest, have huge manpower and material resources that the people of conscience do not have.
The battle, so to speak. From the beginning. The people of conscience fell into passivity.
Dividing line-
"General Estes. This time, you still lived up to our high expectations, and did a very good job in suppressing the alien peoples in the north. ”
Looking at Estes standing below, the little emperor looked at this one at a time, whether from the appearance or from the overall point of view, the little emperor could not put Estes and this time in one fell swoop to freeze 400,000 northern alien races, and in the bloody battle, finally. Both won with Estes being unharmed, so much so that they earned the terrifying titles of [Queen of Killing] and [Ice Blue Demon].
Facing the little emperor's scrutiny, Estes's beautiful face did not show any abnormality, and he was still very calm, just standing quietly, as if he had not heard the little emperor's appreciation.
In this regard, the little emperor did not blame Estes for being rude, after all, Estes had always been this rather rude appearance since she first entered the palace to meet her, originally. The little emperor also thought about curing Estes for a crime of disrespect.
But, taking into account the rather grandiose exploits of Estes. As well as having the name of Chen Xiaoyao's disciple, the little emperor also dispelled the idea, and gave Estes and Earnest almost the same privilege of being 'rude' to himself.
"As a reward, I have prepared 10,000 taels of gold for you as a reward."
With a wave of the little emperor's hand, two sturdy soldiers carried a box about one meter long, wide and high, respectfully walked up to Estes, put it down and opened it.
Suddenly, the chest full of gold, the moment it was opened, released a very faint golden yellow light, and these lights also made the throats of some officials in the main hall continue to surge.
But when these officials turned their eyes to Estes, they all shuddered, and the idea was to hit this woman, and it was not worth it to exchange their lives for the money.
You must know that 10,000 taels of gold is about more than 1 million gold coins in the imperial capital, and just 100 gold coins are enough for an ordinary family of three, and it is a huge amount of money to live for a month without worrying about food and clothing.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward, but this reward means nothing to me. I will give this bounty to my soldiers, who need it more than I do. ”
Estes took off the sergeant's hat from his head and bowed slightly to the little emperor in thanks.
And such a move also made the little emperor very satisfied.
Although Estes was a female killer who slaughtered the world when he was a foreign enemy, everyone had to admit that Estes cared about his sergeants very much, and many rewards were given to the soldiers under his command by Estes.
"yes, I see." The little emperor nodded, and then continued: "General Estes, you originally rushed back to the imperial capital day and night, so you shouldn't be bothering you, but now I have a mission sent to you. ”
Estes' expression remained unchanged and he listened quietly.
"Near the perimeter of the Imperial Capital, there is a vicious person named 'Night Raid', who is wreaking havoc in the Imperial Capital, killing many of my courtiers, and I hope to sweep it away with the help of the general's bravery!"
"Oh?! NightRaid? ”
Estes uttered intriguing words.
"What? General Estes, do you know them too? ”
Faced with the little emperor's question, Estes nodded, then pondered for a moment, and then looked at Earnest, who was standing beside the little emperor, and said calmly.
"I've just heard about it."
How could Estes not know about the night attack, you must know that in the secret information she collected, most of the Jue was about the night attack, after all, according to some clues, Chen Xiaoyao had a relationship with the person who attacked the night.
At the same time, according to the actual intelligence, Estes also knew who the night raid killed, and it is estimated that it must have been instigated by Earnest to let himself take action against the night raid.
Otherwise, according to the handling personnel who have happened in the imperial capital in the past, they are generally solved by General Bude.
Estes, who guessed through Earnest's careful thinking, naturally knew that this was just a small trick for the other party to respond to himself, after all, in the eyes of both parties, it was like a prank, and it was good to be able to make the other party embarrassed.
It's just that. Even if it's a prank. I'm going to fight back, too.
"But"
Retract your gaze. Turning his gaze back to the little emperor, Estes pretended to be thoughtful, and only when everyone turned their doubtful eyes to himself did Estes speak.
"In comparison, Your Majesty also knows that the other party has the emperor's tool, and the emperor's tool makes it. So, be brave. I have a request! I hope that 'Your Majesty' will agree. ”
Estes deliberately accentuated the words 'Your Majesty', and at the same time turned his gaze to Earnest who was munching on the barbecue.
Compared with the little emperor who is powerless and powerless, and then looks like a qualified puppet, Estes, who did not focus on her at all, threw the so-called 'promise' to the real person in power-Ornest.
"Do you need soldiers? Rest assured, General Estes, I'll do my best to prepare it for you! ”
"Your Majesty, I need not ordinary soldiers!"
Estes vetoed.
"Although, I'm 100% sure that it's going to be an open-board confrontation. The other party is not my opponent, but. If it were just me and one of my Imperial Envoys, it would not be easy to find them and arrest them, and I would need to be able to contain the Imperial Envoys as well, after all, if you want to fight the enemy, only the Imperial Envoys can exert qualified combat effectiveness! ”
"Therefore, Your Majesty, please help me gather as many imperial envoys as possible, the words of the soldiers are enough for the usual ones!"
Estes looked at Earnest and said very dryly, with a look that 'it's not that I'm not strong enough, it's just that my subordinates don't have enough imperial tools to look for it'.
Therefore, if Earnest wants to trap Estes, he must help Estes first, and even if Earnest does not agree, there is no loss for Estes.
And thinking of this, for Estes who was anti-pit Earnest, the corners of her mouth defiantly outlined a beautiful arc.
And hearing Estes's "request", the little emperor, who had already made a certain amount of mental preparation, also felt a little embarrassed.
After all, there are really very few imperial envoys, even in the current imperial capital, the imperial envoys on the surface are nothing more than General Bud, Estes, Estes's subordinate Liva, a Dr. Fashion who has been experimenting in the empire, and the newly promoted Imperial Guard captain Seleuce Yubikitas, this song is only five people. (PS: I misspelled Liwa as Wali before)
In addition to the emperors that were created, there were only 48 in total, and because of the past wars, the emperors were separated and damaged, and many of them were in the hands of foreign peoples and the Eastern Loose God Cult, as well as the revolutionary army as a rebel.
Therefore, if you really want to put together a special operations team composed of all imperial envoys, this will also require a lot of determination for the empire, after all, this condition can only be met by deploying all the imperial envoys who guard important places in the empire to the imperial capital.
However, in this case, without the emperor's envoy to guard it, the security of these important places will be greatly reduced, so it is necessary to consider it carefully.
"This General Estes, you also know, the Imperial Envoy is not"
"Your Majesty."
Before the little emperor could finish speaking, Earnest, who was standing aside, suddenly interjected. Came in and spoke.
"Is Your Majesty worried, the important place of the empire may cause an accident after losing the imperial tool to guard it?"
Earnest smiled and made the little emperor nod.
"Indeed, Chancellor, what do you think?"
"Hahaha, according to Wei Chen's opinion, these are not difficult things, after all, as long as General Estes can eliminate this gang of thieves so quickly as he eliminated the alien races in the north (NightRaid), then we can let the imperial envoys return to their own town before the accident, and the problem will be solved, isn't it all solved?"
"Oh! Yes, if it's fast, it can really solve everything before an accident happens. ”
The little emperor suddenly realized, and then said.
"General Estes, I will do my best to meet your requests, and you can rest assured, but I also ask you to destroy those thieves before any accidents happen."
"Yes."
Estes, knowing that this was Onest's calculation, lowered the brim of his military cap on his head.
She has been fighting openly and secretly with Ornest, and it is absolutely impossible for her to tolerate her failure in Ornest's small calculation, so it was originally just a night attack by Estes looking for Chen Xiaoyao in his heart, and then destroying the little scumbag.
At this moment, he was also secretly attached to Estes.
"Well, if you say that, I'll be at ease."
The little emperor nodded with great satisfaction, and then released a bright smile at Ornest, which made Estes very disdainful.
And as if in response to Estes' disdain, Earnest smiled wickedly.
Immediately after, an Imperial soldier ran in and knelt on the floor of the main hall.
"Report, report to Your Majesty that the former minister, Jolly, was killed in his room, and the murderer was none other than NightRaid."
"What!" XN
The soldier's words were like a huge tsunami that suddenly appeared on a calm sea level, and all the personnel in the hall except for Earnest and Estes were shocked at once.
Jolly's death in such a blatant manner, and moreover, at the cusp of the storm, is definitely a super earthquake.
That's a terrible situation to be expected. ’
Estes's eyes became full of sharpness when he looked at Earnest at this moment, and a dazzling smile slowly bloomed out. (To be continued.) )
