The journey was very fast, and the Rhoderan Empire, located in the middle of the continent, was not so far from the Lorik Kingdom, but in just over twenty days, they reached the territory of the Rhoderan Empire.

After they made the name of the kingdom of Lorik, they went all the way unimpeded.

William looked at the surrounding land, and in his opinion, the Rhoderan Empire, as the number one power on the mainland, must be very prosperous, and the civilian life is also very rich.

However, the scene in front of him was a little different from his imagination, these villages were similar to those of other nobles, although life was not as difficult as the residents of other nobles, but it was definitely not rich, only to ensure food and clothing.

William thought that this was just an example, after all, the nobles of the Holy Sect World had a lot of autonomy over their own territories, and even William could not control how his vassals treated his residents.

However, William did not see a relatively wealthy village along the way, and the inhabitants in it were basically full of vegetables, although not to the point of skin and bones, but the situation was also worrying.

After William saw this scene, the letter also had a new orientation for the Rodland Empire.

Sure enough, it is better to read a book ten thousand times than to travel ten thousand miles, the wisdom of the ancestors of the Celestial Empire is really extraordinary, before seeing it with his own eyes, William thought that the Rhoderan Empire was also a place as rich as the Kingdom of Lorik.

But when he actually came here, he found that it was nothing more than that, just a larger collection of countries, and there was no greater change in the form of the state.

Although William's kingdom of Lorique was similar to other countries of the era, he had basically completed the suppression of his vassals.

This is not only through strength, but also in terms of institutions, the whole country must implement the laws made by William, which the Rhodeland Empire did not do.

The tax card was abolished throughout the country, which the Rodland Empire did not do, and attracting vassals to serve in the court did not do this.

It can be said that once something happens, the Rodland Empire, which has been finally unified, is in danger of splitting, but William's Lorik Kingdom has no hidden danger in this regard.

And what he saw and heard later made William confirm this idea, only to see that the cities and castles were extremely prosperous.

Gorgeously dressed people were everywhere, and judging by the coats of arms on their bodies, they were just merchants.

On the contrary, some nobles did not have these merchants dressed in luxury, and they walked on the road with their nostrils turned upward, looking down on anyone.

There were no such merchants in the kingdom of Lorik, because they knew that even if they were rich, they would be nothing more than nouveau riche in the eyes of the nobles.

Although they are allowed to wear more gorgeous clothes, but there are also absolute requirements, William has set standards for the shape of clothing, if anyone dares to trespass, it will definitely be the end of the family.

William's vassals were very sympathetic to his approach, and what could the merchants do if they had money, rather than surrendering to their feet.

The present era is not as much as the Renaissance and the rise of capital in Western Europe in William's previous life, and merchants have gradually gained status from the aristocracy with the capital in their hands.

The merchants and aristocrats here have basically become antagonistic, and the two hate each other, rather than the aristocracy gradually turning into capitalists as in William's previous life.

This state of affairs is very dangerous, which is why William will suppress the development of capital in his kingdom, and his decision has proved to be very correct, no matter how rich the merchants are, but they will never dare to run rampant.

It is a state of symbiosis for the nobles to maintain and uphold the rule of the king, to provide them with protection and to guarantee their privileges.

Once capital appears, it is likely that there will be a revolution, and the revolution will be the order of a king like William.

Although this did not occur in the Empire of Rhodesland, the contradictions between merchants and nobles could not be alleviated.

William couldn't help but shake his head as he looked at the situation in the Rodland Empire.

The current Rhodesan Empire has long been undercurrent, and all kinds of problems are hidden under this prosperous appearance, and the nobles and emperors of the Rhodesan Empire are addicted to the blazing oil cooking and cannot extricate themselves, and they do not see these hidden dangers at all.

Now that the Bloody Emperor Greine is in the prime of life and has a large number of powerful troops in his hands, this situation is not obvious, and if something happens to Grein, this contradiction will be immediately stimulated.

Along the way, William's sons were also a little disappointed, they thought that the Rhoderan Empire, as the number one power in the mainland, would be a more prosperous and developed place than the Lorik Kingdom.

However, in terms of the environment, the affluence of the residents, the prosperity of the city, the density of the fortresses on the road, and the physical fitness of the population, it is completely incomparable with the Kingdom of Lorik.

Under this disappointment, they admired their father even more, and an ordinary country under his father's rule became a more developed and wealthy place than the first power on the mainland, how could they not worship William?

William's vassals are almost the same, they admire William more and more, and they are more in awe of William in their hearts, and at the same time, they also feel that following William is indeed a very promising thing.

Soon, they reached Deboren, the capital of the Rodland Empire.

Deboren's size is larger than that of Denlenburg, but this size is only the extent of the city walls, and the size of the outer city is about the same.

After all, Denlenburg was once only a county of counties, and even if it was expanded, it was not as grand as the Rhodeland Empire.

The group looked at the surrounding scene and slowly approached Deboren.

Deboren's city has long been received by people outside the city, after all, this is the kingdom of Lorik, a continental powerhouse, and they have not neglected it.

A high-ranking courtier of Emperor Greine received them with hundreds of entourage, welcomed them very much, and then led them into the palace, which was more than three times larger than the palace of the Kingdom of Lorik.

They soon settled all of them, and said that Emperor Greine was looking forward to the arrival of His Majesty Wilhelm, and that they hoped that the two would meet in the Emperor's study.

William readily agreed, and after settling down for a while, he walked in the direction of the emperor's study with a few retinues and courtiers.

After passing through the tedious and wide corridor, they came smoothly to the emperor's study.

The courtier knocked on the door and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, King William has arrived!" ”

Inside, the courtier's words were heard, and the door was immediately opened, and a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties and had an incomparably majestic posture stood in front of the door.

"You are finally here, dear His Majesty William, I have been waiting for you for a long time!"
