While his subordinates were busy and desperately trying to clean up the aftermath, the emperor himself, who was inside the imperial capital Balfrey Palace, the largest political center of the Erebonia Empire, was not happy at this moment.

Although the fact that the two children were safe and well-behaved gave him some comfort; Olibat was also proud of his prominence – but the trickier stuff was to come.

The day after the accident, a large number of nobles requested a withdrawal from the imperial capital to their respective domains. In this regard, the emperor himself generously agreed: the annual meeting was also held, and he and other people were also greeted, and the rest should have been to have a few days of fun, dancing with the girls he liked, but when he encountered this kind of thing, anyone would be completely disinterested.

The main guests of the summer solstice festival in the imperial capital are the local civilians in the imperial capital and suburban cities, as well as a large number of tourists who come here. If the nobles are gone, although there is some regret, it is not unacceptable.

But when the next morning, the old foxes of the "Four Famous Families" actually found themselves here at the same time, this matter could not but attract the attention of the emperor.

Especially when Prime Minister Gillias Osborne himself happened to be present in the palace to complete the final preparations for the "Sisemlia Trade Conference" and met the leaders of the "Four Great Families" face to face.

"......" Jugent III pinched the bridge of his nose with a sad face. The words of his subordinates made him feel very irritable.

"—So, Lord Osborne is still too inconsiderate." Marquis Rogner, one of the four famous families, was once from the Imperial Army, and he was also a well-known royalist in his own right—he was attacking Osborne at this moment, aiming at the security issues arranged during the Summer Solstice Festival, "Although we have all heard of the strength of the Ice Maiden's ability, but the safety of the lives of the three Highnesses is entrusted to a woman under the age of thirty......" sighed and shook his head, "Although the result is not bad, I still think that His Excellency the Prime Minister is too inconsiderate at this point." ”

"Marquis Rogner is right." The elegant man in white on the side said softly, not loudly, but attracted attention to him - this person is the Marquis of Haines, one of the four famous families, "The dog once retold to me the scene in the "Park of the Virgin...... Her Royal Highness and the noble girl in her entourage were held hostage by the other side for a while, until reinforcements suddenly arrived, killing the other party by surprise - but if the security measures were properly arranged...... I don't think His Highnesses should have been so frightened. ”

The other two, a middle-aged man in a formal suit with dark green accents and a gold cuff collar, did not speak, but just nodded, indicating that he agreed with the words of the two who had just spoken. He was the Duke of El Barrea on the side of "Baryahat", and he was known for not smiling in such meetings with big names. As for the rest of the man, a middle-aged man with orange hair dressed in luxurious clothes and made of expensive mink, he was naturally the Duke of Kane, the head of the "Four Famous Families".

"Huh...... Marquis Rogner's loyalty to the royal family is really evident. Osborne didn't care about this, and smiled, and a sentence that I don't know whether it was admiration or sarcasm directly embarrassed the Marquis Rogner's rugged face full of stubble, "And the Marquis of Haines over there...... I have also heard about Ling Lang's calm command of the evacuation during the attack on Our Lady's Park, which is not unrelated to the calm enthusiasm you showed just now. ”

Without answering the question head-on, Osborne ignored the aristocratic camp that had fallen silent, and continued: "It is true...... The doubts of the two just now are not unreasonable. But the two of them should also notice that this group of terrorists is very well-trained because of their careful planning, steady and precise attack, and swift action...... The firearms and enhanced armor they use from the "RF" company are the best military Warcraft...... I've even heard that they have "ancient relics" that are supposed to be under the custody of the church...... In the face of such an adversary, do you two mean that my subordinates ". P" Must be able to completely keep the enemy out of the Imperial Capital, so that they don't have the slightest chance to get close to His Highness? We've been working so the heightened security and patrols, or the overtime checks they're going to do even on vacation, are you going to ignore them? ”

The nobles of the four famous families almost wanted to eat Prime Minister Osborne alive in their hearts. Originally, it was a very serious safety accident, but he was fooled by him like this, and threw out a completely illogical reason such as "Ice Girl did her best, you can do it" - but there was no way to refute it in front of His Majesty Yukent III.

Moreover...... The nobles each looked at each other, tacitly. Obviously, there are secrets that only a few of them know at the moment—or rather, they think only a few of them know, and they can't say anything.

"Regarding this, I think El Barea Gong should also be more proud. According to the information I received, Ling Lang was also at the Great Sanctuary and had made a great contribution to the safety of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince...... Why don't you say a few words happily? ”

“…… If only it didn't bother you. Duke El Barea paused for a moment, and then said lightly.

"Huh...... Even if he is not as good as Lu Fasqing, he is working his own position. Duke Kane, who was on the side, finally spoke, "But here's the problem...... If the safety of the royal family has to rely on the sons of the family such as El Bare and Haines, not the powerful and mobile army in the mouth of the prime minister. P" ...... "He didn't finish his words, but here he stopped abruptly."

"yes...... If there is anything wrong with the "Railway Gendarmerie", it is that the speed of rushing to the destination after the accident is a little slow, but considering the chaos in the city at the time, this is also something that cannot be helped...... I have another thing I'd like to ask a few of them. You say......" Prime Minister Osborne suddenly raised his head and smiled strangely, "the Imperial Capital Gendarmerie was formed with the people recommended by your subordinates as the core...... I didn't seem to have heard much about the activity in this incident......"
