Before Cecil could speak, Twelve stepped forward.

"I know your concerns, and I understand the pride of being a courtier of the Cass Empire. I, Twelve Campbell, can promise in place of Emperor Robert that after Cass surrenders to the Robert Empire, all of you present will still retain your nobility and fiefdoms, and will not levy additional taxes for the next ten years, and will also send the best craftsmen of Novino to teach the water fixing technology to the people of the Cass Empire for the benefit of one side, what do you think? ”

The opposition stopped, and the nobles began to discuss in whispers.

Twelve is very clear about these people, they are all independent, long-standing families, how much loyalty can they have to this empire, and the most important thing is their own interests.

At present, the most important thing is the problem of water resources and water use in the future, as long as these two problems are solved and these nobles can continue to live their lives, then what does it matter who is the emperor?

What's more, the promise of the Twelfth to exempt the next ten years from taxes means that the money can go into the landlord's own pocket, which is much better than the current onerous taxes of the Kas Empire, and who would be disgusted with the money.

Seeing the discussion, Cecil said: "I know that I am already a sinner in the Cass Empire, and I have prepared an edict for my guilt, and after Cass submits to the Robert Empire, I will prove my repentance with my actions." ”

"The most important thing now is to recover the losses of the people, and hesitation can only miss the opportunity."

The eldest of the nobles stood up and bowed to Cecil, who was at the top, and said, "Your Majesty! For the sake of the people, you can only sacrifice your honor! Your Majesty's righteousness! ”

The remaining nobles saluted one after another: "Your Majesty is righteous!" ”

This is agreed, and Twelve suddenly felt that his breathing was smooth.

The next step was to sign the paperwork for the transfer of ownership with Cecil, and after settling the money on the parchment, Twelve happily rolled up the paper and put it in his arms.

Cecil, who was sitting on the side, asked, "The Kingdom of Cass is submissive, and Her Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine is so happy?" ”

Twelve shook his head: "I'm not happy about this, I'm happy to finally be able to go back." ”

Cecil frowned and said, "If I were Robert's Emperor Kyle, I wouldn't let such a good woman as Your Highness risk working for herself outside." ”

"I'm not here for Kyle," Twelve's eyes looked out the window, "I'm here for a little girl who can sacrifice herself." ”

Inside the Imperial Palace of Robert.

Kyle receives a battle report from the front, saying that the Cass Empire has signed a surrender letter to the Robert Empire.

Kyle was so happy that he immediately ran to Zhao Jiaqi's bedroom to share with her.

"Hahaha, you are really my lucky star, if I didn't follow your advice, I would never have imagined that I would be able to capture the Cass Empire in my life! Now Robert's Empire is the most powerful empire on the continental plate! Kyle happily lifted Zhao Jiaqi like a child.

Zhao Jiaqi's smile didn't reach the bottom of his eyes: "That's really congratulations to Your Majesty, this is all the credit of the imperial concubine, and it has nothing to do with me." ”

"It doesn't matter, if you hadn't said that you would have let Twelve capture the Cass Empire, I wouldn't have this idea, now that my wish has come true, if we have another child together, then my life will be perfect!" Kyle unfolded the battle report and read it again, not paying attention to Zhao Jiaqi on the side.

The latter's eyes darkened when he heard Kyle mention the child.

Zhao Jiaqi has been married to Kyle for so long, and her stomach has not moved, and Kyle has called many doctors for her, but they all say that the queen is in good health and is a good age to have children.

If Zhao Jiaqi can't have children, then the throne of Robert's empire will be inherited by Victoria as the first heir to the throne, and everything that is hard-earned today will go to Victoria's hands.

How could she be reconciled.

But who would have expected that Twelve was not only not poisoned by Seya, but also took the Kas Empire, and I heard that the civilians and people there also praised her, saying that she was the Arambel of the Kas Empire.

After Kyle left, Zhao Jiaqi locked himself in the room, smashed it all the time, and kept cursing in his mouth: "Waste! It's all useless rubbish! Twelve Campbell, Victoria Robert, you guys wait for me! ”

That night, Zhao Jiaqi shirked his physical discomfort and did not let Kyle sleep in his bedroom.

Victoria had been living on her fingers every day since Twelve left, and it had been a month since she had not yet seen her mother return, and she was a little worried.

Victoria leaned on the head of the bed, looked at the moon in the sky without sleep, and prayed: "O moon god, if you can really hear me, I sincerely pray that you will send my mother free of charge, so that she can come back safely, and I am willing to eat small cakes again for the rest of my life." ”

At this moment, there was an eager knock on the door from Honora: "Princess! Princess! Come out of here! Her Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine has news! ”

When Victoria heard the news that it was twelve, she trotted out of the door of the room, only to see a gloomy Verola at the door.

With a hand behind her back, Vinola stared at her with a gloomy stare and said, "Princess, don't blame me, if you want to blame, blame yourself for not being born in the royal family!" ”

After saying that, she saw a flash of silver light in Vinola's hand, and Victoria saw her swinging a dagger at herself.

Victoria was shocked, and after a roll to dodge, she ran away and shouted for help: "Salim, come and save me!" Venola is crazy! ”

Salim, who was asleep, heard the commotion, and before he even had time to put on his shoes, he hurriedly picked up a letter from the bedside table, and ran out from behind the door with a broom.

As soon as he went out, he saw Vinora chasing Victoria with a silver dagger in hand.

Salim stepped forward and struck Venola in the back of the head with a broomstick, pulling Victoria to run.

Victoria broke free of Salim's grasp and ran towards Vinola.

"Princess! She doesn't know when she'll wake up, let's get out of the palace and hide in the Duke's Palace!" Salim felt that the rebellion of Venola at this time was definitely not a good sign, and that there might be the next wave of Assassins waiting for Victoria.

Victoria walked up to Vinola, snatched the dagger from her hand, and said to her in a daze: "Vinola, I know you don't really want to hurt me, if you don't want to die, just lie on the ground and pretend to be unconscious, so that the queen thinks that you were robbed of the knife and knocked unconscious, so the assassination was not successful, and I left." ”

After saying that, he got up, took Salim's hand and left the place.

And Vinola, who was supposed to be unconscious, left a tear in the corner of her eye.

Salim took Victoria all the way to the palace gate, and finally ran to the place where the carriage was hidden, he picked Victoria into the carriage and said: "Princess, you take the dagger to protect yourself, this is a letter from the princess to me, take it to Lao Sai, he will protect you well!" ”
