Chapter 722: Unexpected Changes
Fortunately, Linton had just returned from his wedding, otherwise he might have forgotten about his wedding.
After thinking about it for a while, Linton felt that the church should also send someone to attend his wedding, after all, he had a good relationship with the church, even if the other party really didn't trust him, but he still had what they wanted, right? In that case, there is no need to go to church, and you should be able to meet at the wedding. Last time, I remember that Pope San Reno said that he would come to his wedding in person, but I don't know if it's true.
Anyway, Linton also hurriedly asked about the time, yes, don't really miss your wedding, it's really not easy to explain.
The place where Linton is now is still the fiefdom of the Merlowe family, and the last time he came back, he didn't want to solve the problem of the Nassis family, so he crossed directly here. Linton also hurried out of his room and asked someone about the time and where Garseen went.
"Sword Master, why are you here?" As soon as I came out, I suddenly heard a somewhat familiar voice again. When he looked up, he saw that it was the maid who had told him about Garsein's wedding earlier, and Linton remembered her.
"Why are you again, are you dangling at the door of my room all day?" Linton propped his forehead, "What are you going to say?" ”
"Aren't you supposed to go to the wedding, sir?" The maid said in surprise.
"Are you TN a repeater?" Linton raised his forehead, "Let's make it clear first, whose wedding is this time." ”
"Your Excellency, you must have forgotten your wedding." The maid said immediately.
"Who forgot, didn't I ask clearly?" Linton said that he was cheated by you last time? No, it doesn't seem to be himself who was cheated at all, but the Narcissus family. was originally such a strong family, but because the maid didn't say a word clearly, and now it is directly packed, which is miserable enough.
"Okay, I'm sure it's my wedding, right?" Linton said, "When is it, it won't be today." ”
"Your Excellency...... Don't scare me. The maid said a little nervously, "The wedding is not today...... It was yesterday. ”
"......" Linton looked at the maid a little confused.
"Your Excellency, you really didn't participate, did you?" The maid said.
"." Linton directly supported his forehead, he knew that he wouldn't attend his nephew's wedding, but he really missed his wedding one day, what is going on? Linton doesn't even know what to do.
Now Linton is really having a headache, it's really a bit hard to explain, and he doesn't have any alternatives. It is impossible to say that I really forgot, first of all, I didn't forget, and forgetting this can't be explained at all. Of course, I can't say that I have crossed the plane, I don't care if I can say it or not, is it better to say this now, and I can't explain it, who believes you for this reason.
The best thing to do now is to find a reason why you have to be absent, at least find something more important than getting married, such as saving the world or something. That's not a complete lie, I'm really saving the world, but I'm just in another world.
So how to make it up, Linton hasn't figured it out yet, but now it's really no time, whether it's thought about it or not, it's better to rush to the scene first. The reason or something, let's make it up when the time comes.
Without continuing to explain to the maid, Linton's white light flashed and teleported directly to Garsein's side. The wedding was yesterday, and Garseen must have attended his wedding in the imperial capital, so there was no need to ask where he was.
With a "bang", Linton appeared directly in the main hall of the palace. Yes, Linton has been here several times, so you can tell at a glance that this is the main hall. Linton appeared in the middle of the hall, and in front of him was the Emperor Wigley, who was sitting on the emperor's throne above, and he knew by looking at his face that he was very angry, angry.
Linton looked around, and all the ministers were there, presumably in a meeting. And the half-kneeling on the ground next to him is Garsein, as if the emperor is questioning him, looking at this, Wigley is holding his nephew accountable?
That really needs to be held accountable, and after a few months of preparing for the wedding ceremony, the groom didn't come for some reason, and of course Wigley asked the patriarch of your Merlowe family to find out what the situation was. Linton's side also quickly understood the situation, and at this time, the people around him were stunned because Linton suddenly appeared and hadn't reacted, so Linton hurriedly said: "Father-in-law, please stop being angry, there is something urgent on my side, and I really can't rush back in time......"
"I'll settle accounts with you later, so I'll step aside first." Wigley's face also changed, and then he said immediately.
"Huh?" Linton was still planning how to make it up, but Wigley suddenly said this, which made Linton confused.
Before he knew what was going on, Linton suddenly noticed that the ministers next to him were talking in whispers, and looked at him with a look of surprise. Linton didn't know what was going on, but judging by the performance of these people, could it be that he said something wrong? Or because he didn't show up, Wigley had made a good excuse for himself, but he suddenly appeared and slapped him in the face?
Before Linton could figure it out, Garsein, who was kneeling on the ground, hurriedly whispered to Linton: "You go to the side first, and I'll explain to you later." ”
Linton was indeed confused, but he still came to the side and stood to see the situation first. looked at Wigley above, and sure enough, his face was a little darker, probably because he had said the wrong thing. However, Wigley took a breath and continued: "Duke Merlowe, I order you to go back and gather troops immediately, send at least 5,000 troops, and you must rush to the Roseegg Fortress within fifteen days!" ”
"Yes, Your Majesty." Gasein, who was here, immediately took the order.
"Hmm." Wigley nodded, and Garseen also got up, and of course he immediately came to Linton's side. And Wigley didn't care about him, and continued to say to a person dressed as a military general on the other side: "Duke Luo Yan, I order you to go back and gather troops immediately, and also send at least 5,000 troops, and rush to Rossegg Fortress within fifteen days." ”
"What's the situation, there's a war?" Linton hurriedly asked in a whisper to Garsein, who came to him.
"The Madrama Empire has declared war on us." Garseen also replied in a whisper.
"Uh......"
As soon as Gaseen heard it, he knew that Linton didn't know what the Madramar Empire was, so he quickly explained it simply. The Madrama Empire is to the east of the Holy Empire of Elam, bordering their border in the southeast. The Madrama Empire is not a country of humans, but a country established by orcs, because of the different races, the two sides cannot get along well, and big wars occur from time to time.
The Empire's defense on the southeast border is still very strong, and a large army of the empire is stationed on the southeast border all year round, which is to guard against the Madrama Empire. The last war with the Madrama Empire was five years ago, and it was not very far from now, when no one on either side took any advantage, fought for a year, but there was no result, and the two sides maintained the status quo and ended, but after five years, the Madrama Empire made a comeback and attacked them again.
They got the news exactly yesterday, yes, it was Linton's wedding day. At that time, the guests and the like had already arrived in advance to the imperial capital, and Emperor Gaseen and Emperor Wigley were sweating profusely in a hurry, because Linton had not appeared for a long time, theoretically you were going to get married, and it was necessary to arrive a few days early, but Linton had not shown up until the wedding was about to start, could they not be in a hurry?
It is impossible to reschedule the wedding, this invitation has been sent out, and the following are all ready, how can this be rescheduled, so what should I do now that the groom is gone? Seeing that the time for the wedding was coming, and the two of them didn't know how to end, an urgent message suddenly came, and a force from the Madrama Empire appeared on the southeast border of the empire, with a large number of people, as if there was some action.
Seriously, Wigley was relieved when he heard this, few people knew about Linton's non-attendance, and now the guests didn't know that the groom hadn't arrived yet, so since there was an emergency military situation, he just used this excuse to stop the wedding. Yes, in this case stop the wedding, no one can say anything.
Wigley didn't say anything about Linton's absence at all, and directly dealt with the emergency military situation. No one asked about Linton, and everyone assumed that Linton had arrived, but there was no way to stop the wedding due to an accident. But as soon as Linton appeared today, he directly said that he didn't have time to arrive yesterday because he had something, aren't you showing your stuff? So now Wigley's face is extremely dark, and he is really angry with Linton.
Of course, it is not a very strange thing for the troops of the Maderrama Empire to appear on the border, and it is also possible to change guards, and it does not directly indicate that the other party has declared war. So yesterday, Wigley only asked people to hurry up to issue credentials, and sent people to the border to investigate the situation, trying to find out whether the fight was really going to start.
Today, however, they received accurate information, an official declaration of war from the Madramar Empire, to be exact. And their troops had already launched an attack on the fortress of Roseg in the southeast, which caught the empire by surprise. Wigley was also angry, so he immediately declared war on the Madramar Empire, and the two countries officially entered a state of war, after which they hurriedly gathered troops and went to the southeast to support the border. That's what Linton saw when he came.
As vassals of the empire, the Merlowe family of course also had to send troops, so just now Gathern was just accepting orders from the emperor. Linton's sudden appearance also gave Wigley a headache, but fortunately, now that the big war is imminent, it is estimated that no one will jump out to ask why Linton was not there yesterday.
After hearing this, Linton was stunned, and couldn't help but say: "There is such a good thing? ”
In an instant, the entire hall looked at Linton.
