Charles went out and found that it should have been the busiest time in the royal city at this time, but the many vendors and travelers who shouted along the street had already taken refuge in the nearby hostels at this time, and the residents of the city had already closed their doors.

It seems that the Saxon invasion has caused more and more damage to Great Britain in recent years, and it is true that the more wars and troubles, the more rampant the bandits and the like. Charles thought as he walked, but the more harm the Saxons did to Great Britain, the better it would be for the implementation of his plan, as for the common people below, although Charles couldn't bear it, but he was not the Virgin, and when his life was threatened by the requirements of the mission, where could he care.

There was no word all the way, and the palace guard who walked in front of him didn't have the heart to stutter the red man who had come to the king in front of him recently, he also had a frightened look on his face, and he walked in a hurry, fortunately it was Charles, otherwise he was almost afraid that he would not be able to keep up with the footsteps of this guard.

Before Charles had reached the palace, he saw from afar, and from time to time there were nobles at the gate of the palace who rode to the door in a panic and hurried into the palace.

It seems that the situation is a bit serious this time, and even these nobles who usually look like the sky is falling apart can't help but show the fear in their hearts.

"Mr. Charles has arrived!"

The palace guards bowed slightly, and then left the place in a hurry, and Charles watched King Uther's parlor come and go from time to time, and shrugged helplessly and stepped in.

The moment Charles walked into the living room, the nobles who had been discussing the current situation with each other stopped and looked at Charles.

"Who's that?"

Charles has only been here for a few days, although he has a certain reputation in the royal city because of the praise of Merlin and King Uther, but not all the nobles know him, and looking at Charles's outfit, it is obvious that he is not a nobleman, which makes them ask the people around them a little puzzled, but after learning about Charles's identity, they can't help but look at Charles with a little disdain and vigilance.

"How did he come?"

And the people who knew Charles's identity also frowned and looked at Charles who was indifferent even if he was stared at by everyone, you must know that the people here are all nobles from Great Britain, and they are either lords or knights. And now they are discussing military affairs, how can a lowly person like Charles of unknown origin be allowed to enter here, is it a dereliction of duty on the part of the guards.

But they won't believe this reason, how could the palace guards, as the troops protecting the king of a country, make such a mistake, now is a time of war, and it is not the kind of time that has enjoyed hundreds of years of peace.

However, even if all the nobles in the hall were puzzled and dissatisfied with Charles's sudden appearance here, none of the nobles rashly jumped out and slapped their faces, this is not a fantasy novel at the starting point, the nobles are full of fat, and they don't know how to observe words and expressions and cultivate temperament.

And you have to know where this is, how can a commoner be able to pass through the layers of defenses laid by the palace guards led by knights, and there is still Master Merlin in the palace, so the only reason why Charles can appear here is only because of the summons of King Uther or Merlin, and only the two of them have such rights here.

"Charles, you're here, find a seat to sit down."

King Uther's voice suddenly rang out in the hall, and the meeting room, which had been a little cluttered by Charles's sudden appearance, became quiet again. Everyone hurriedly withdrew their gaze from Charles, and got up and saluted King Uther before returning to their seats, and chatting softly with the people around them about the Saxon invasion.

After following everyone to salute King Uther, Charles swept his eyes around, then randomly found a corner and sat down, without knowing the situation, he still quietly found a quiet place and listened quietly as a quiet beautiful man.

"I want to hear what you think, as you know the news from the front, that the Saxon troops are coming again, and that their front troops have landed in northern Britain."

The nobles below looked at each other, they also had their own ears and eyes in the front-line troops, and naturally knew that this time the Saxons were menacing, it is said that one of the tribes claimed to believe in a god and received the blessing of the gods, but their combat effectiveness was indeed extraordinary, and the news came from the front, it was rumored that this tribe had defeated a force of the powerful Burgundian Kingdom there in Gaul.

Even when the kingdom was strong, these nobles were reluctant to send their troops to the front, let alone now that the kingdom was about to fall into turmoil due to King Uther's declining health, they didn't want their troops to be damaged, especially those nobles who had other ideas in mind.

However, King Uther ruled the kingdom for decades, and even if the Emillot dynasty was in turmoil in his hands, he still had his own die-hard supporters.

Duke Ector, who was sitting below, stood up with an angry face at this time, he knew what those nobles were thinking, but now is the time when the kingdom is in crisis, they are still so ignorant, it is really short-sighted!

"King! Afraid of what those barbarians are doing! Since the other side is here, let's rush forward and do it, our knights of Great Britain have been galloping on the battlefield for so many years, when have you ever been afraid! One thousand soldiers and two hundred cavalry under my command will be handed over to you, and I will have more than a dozen knights with extraordinary martial arts, who will also be led by you! ”

Prince Ryan saw that Duke Ector had already stepped forward, and knew that he could no longer sit at this time, so he hurriedly followed suit.

"King, the troops in my hands have also been handed over to you, but you also know that my territory is in the north of Great Britain, so I have to leave a certain number of troops to guard, and I can only take out more than a thousand soldiers and three or four hundred cavalry, but the dozen or so knights under my command will give you all but one to guard the territory."

After seeing Ryan stand up, King Uther and Merlin quietly glanced at each other, and King Uther had a look of surprise on his face.

"Cousin Ryans, I know your dilemma, every time the Saxons invade, your territory bears the brunt, thank you for your strong support."

"Thank you cousin for your understanding."

Ryan hurriedly saluted and sat back in his place, the royal party nobles who were about to stand up for Duke Ector were preempted by Ryan's sudden performance, and after Ryan sat down, they hurriedly stood up and expressed their willingness to fully agree with Duke Ector's idea.

The rest of the nobles were extremely reluctant to show their family background, but now the situation on the field was unwilling, and after they looked at each other helplessly, they could only stand up and express their willingness to take out the troops of their own territory, and be willing to deal with foreign enemies with King Uther.

"Good! I believe that as long as our kingdom is united, we can defeat those rampant Saxon barbarians, and let them see the heroic posture of our knights of Great Britain! ”

King Yusher couldn't help but laugh when he saw that the nobles below were willing to take out his troops, and his face was satisfied.

"However, while we have that confidence, we also have to be cautious."

"Charles, you're from continental Europe, I wonder if you know anything about the Saxons?" King Uther, after laughing, suddenly put away his laughter and looked at Charles.

As soon as King Uther's words fell, all the nobles in the audience looked at Charles in surprise, they did not expect that King Uther really valued this outsider who had only been here for a few days, and even discussed this military affairs with him.
