Before the Merovue family rose to power, the empire had a total of four grand dukes, and these four dukes were all families that existed in the empire a long time ago. The four dukes included the Duke of Rennes, the Duke of Royan, the Duke of Minotir, and the Duke of Nobray.

The situation is still clearly different, among the four dukes, the Duke of Rennes was executed for a failed coup d'état, and his position was replaced by a new Duke of Merlowe, that is, Garsein. The Duke of Minotir had already launched a rebellion before, yes, and this year, he did not declare independence and secede from the Holy Empire of Ilam, but also had the support of the Yetis Empire, for which the two countries also fought a war, and Linton was also involved in a part, and it was at this time that Garsein's fame in the army was at this time.

It may be because there are a lot of dukes who have had accidents this year, which makes the Duke of Norberley feel the crisis. The relationship between the four dukes of the empire and the emperor was not good before, when Wigley first ascended the throne, the four dukes all united to put pressure on him, and now one after another has accidents, no matter how you look at it, I think it means that the emperor wants to settle accounts after the autumn.

Another big driving factor here is the rise of a new aristocratic Merovë family. The rise of the Merowe family and their apparent siding with the Emperor in previous coups will certainly make the Duke of Norberet even more nervous. Originally, the situation in the empire was that four dukes jointly suppressed the emperor, but now two people have fallen, and a new duke has come out to help the emperor, isn't this a crisis?

And the last straw that broke the camel's back was probably the wedding of Linton and Princess Arran. Originally, the Norberie family was the only one of the four dukes to marry the royal family, but now that the Merovue family is also married, isn't this a signal released by the emperor?

Listening to Princess Jora's analysis, several people felt that this was indeed the case, if they were the Duke of Norberley, they would definitely be in a hurry, after all, no matter how you look at it, it seems that the emperor wants to do something to them, and they have already disposed of the two dukes, and if they don't act, won't it be their turn now. No wonder Princess Jorah wondered if the Duke of Norberley had done this, there was some truth to it.

So what did the emperor think, Linton felt that the emperor might not really think so much, the rebellion of the Duke of Wren and the Duke of Minotir in his opinion was basically made by themselves, it should not be actively promoted by Wigley, after all, the Duke of Wren, the emperor himself was critically ill, can this still be arranged by himself?

What's more, according to Princess Yalan, Emperor Wigley has not taken any measures to restrict several dukes in recent years. According to normal thinking, when you ascended the throne, you couldn't do the joint suppression of these four dukes, and there was nothing to compromise, but after you ascended the throne, shouldn't you slowly start settling accounts? But Wigley didn't do that, he basically didn't mean to provoke these people for more than ten years, you see these dukes have begun to rebel unscrupulously, this is not what Wigley is used to.

Linton felt that this was Wigley's too cowardice, and he had always avoided touching the line, and the previous declaration of war was also like this, always timid. Once the emperor is not tough enough, then the ministers will come out one after another, and the Duke of Rennes is even so bold that he directly greens the emperor, which is no one.

Of course, evasion will not solve the problem, and now that the Duke of the Empire is in succession, Wigley must also bear a large part of the responsibility. If it weren't for Linton's rise with the Merovêvian family at this time, perhaps the empire would have split or changed its banner.

After Princess Jorah said this, several people also felt that the Duke of Norberley was likely to be behind this incident. So since even the crown prince's affairs are done by them, they must be ready for Princess Fra's accession to the throne, and as Linton said, once Princess Fra inherits the throne, then there will definitely be no good fruit for their Merlowe family to eat, and it is time to think about it.

Originally, Garseen just felt that Linton was looking for trouble with him, but after listening to Princess Jorah's words, Garseen also felt that this matter had to be seriously considered, otherwise what was waiting for them would definitely not be the result they didn't want to see. After thinking about it, Gaseen asked, "So you mean we are going to deal with this Duke of Norberley?" ”

"The solution is definitely going to be solved." Linton thought for a while and said, "Now that you're in the game, there's no reason to sit still, but I still have to ask, ...... Do you want to take over? ”

"It's not...... How did you get back to the topic? "Garsein holds his forehead.

"If you can take it, it's a lot easier." Linton said, "If you don't take it, it's going to be difficult to do, and you have to think about it carefully, and there may be hidden dangers." ”

"What exactly?" Garseen asked seriously this time, because he didn't feel like Linton was making fun of him.

"Does the eldest princess of Fra and the son of the Duke of Norberley have an heir?" Linton asked.

"Well, there is." Princess Arlan next to her nodded and said, "Dillas, my nephew, is 4 years old this year. Miranda, my niece, is 1 year old. ”

"If we make trouble with the Duke of Norberley, even if we defeat him, what will happen after that, have you thought about it?" Linton turned to Garseen and asked, "After all, the nobles in the empire are also their own people, so we can't kill, burn and plunder, why are we fighting a war that is not beneficial?" If you want to fight, then you want his territory, but if we want to get his territory, it is unlikely, we need a claim, if you take this territory, this matter will be convenient. ”

After a pause, Linton continued: "Look, after you take over, Princess Fura is your wife, and of course his son is also your son, this four-year-old child named Dillas is the eldest grandson of the current Duke of Norberley, and he has the right to inherit the dukedom, right, then you, as his stepfather, have no problem helping him manage the land before he becomes an adult, do we have a reason to become the owner?" Again, if the Duke of Fula is mainly to inherit the throne, as the emperor's husband, there is no problem for you to help manage the country, is our family one step to the sky? Control two dukedoms, backed by the emperor's wife. ”

"Uh......" Garseen was really stunned, so he took this plate really for the sake of the family.

"And my wife said that she really wanted to stay with his eldest sister." Linton said again.

"Huh? Did I say it? Princess Yalan next to her was stunned.

"Why don't you have a tacit understanding, are you my wife now, you have to help me play a round at this time, understand?" Linton said.

"Oh, I said that." Princess Arran nodded.

"I said it." Princess Jorah next to her raised her hand directly.

"You're not my wife, what are you making a fuss about?" Linton said.

"But I really want to meet my eldest sister, but the current situation is obviously impossible." Princess Jorah said. Yes, she does miss her eldest sister very much, her relationship with Princess Fula is similar to that of Yalan, although the two have really not seen each other for a long time, but the relationship has not weakened.

It's just that in the current situation, it is impossible for Princess Chora to see him, after all, Princess Flora doesn't know if it's her own person now, and it's good not to say anything about her current situation if she is exposed to her, but if she is exposed to Duke Norberley's side, it will definitely kill Linton and the Merlowe family, although Princess Chora wants to see Flora very much, but of course she won't do it now.

"Do you really want to do that?" Garseen didn't dwell on the question of Linton's current reasoning, anyway, he was used to it, and he still considered it from the family side, "If we really want to do it, how can we do it?" ”

"Just find a reason to start a war with them and kill them." Linton said.

"Just find a reason? This can't be done, what if His Majesty the Emperor intervenes? Garseen asked.

"If he is like that, can he trouble us?" Linton said, "If Wigley hadn't been too weak, would this have come to this?" ”

"But what if he does intervene?" Garseen asked.

"What can I do if I intervene, and I can help the Duke of Norberley over there." Linton said, "You can't think too much about this, you see that Wigley is looking ahead and backward to lead to the current situation, you still want to follow his route and can't succeed, see the opportunity to do it directly." ”

"Hmm......" Garseen nodded slightly, although he was still a little skeptical, but he also knew that although Linton often troubled him, he would not really harm him and his family in general, so there should be no problem.

"So you decided to take it anyway?" Linton asked.

"Didn't you make me do that?" Garsein yelled.

"That's really a good thing, Princess Fula is also very beautiful, and she gave a son and a daughter for nothing, and she likes to be a father......"

"I ......" Garseen took a deep breath, it was Linton who let him do this, and now it was Linton who squeezed him with these words, and this is personnel? But after all, it's not the first time, and Garseen is used to pitting it, so he thought about it and said, "If that's the case, when will we do it?" ”

"No matter how anxious you are, you have to wait." Linton said, "After all, the crown prince is not dead now, but the territory of the Duke of Norberley is not attractive." ”

A duke is not very attractive, and I have to say that Linton's appetite is really big. Garseen held his forehead, indicating a headache.

"Anyway, now Princess Yalan and I will go to the palace first to see the situation, and ...... over there" Before Linton's words were finished, a soldier next to him came in and knocked on the door and shouted: "Lord Duke, someone from the palace is coming, saying that there is an urgent matter, let Her Royal Highness the Third Princess and Lord Sword Saint go to the palace immediately to meet Your Majesty." ”

Linton and the others glanced at each other directly, thinking that something might be wrong.
