……

At this moment, a cloud of gloom shrouded in the palace of the royal city, and even the sages on the throne showed a rare melancholy color. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Just now, the spies sent an urgent war report, the Flakian Empire inexplicably raised troops to attack the kingdom, and the southwest border also suddenly fell, and what is even more outrageous is that after the imperial army invaded several cities in the south one after another, the information was delayed to reach the royal capital.

"It's a mess of laziness!" The bald sage was so angry that his hands trembled, and he said angrily: "The southwest guard dares to conceal the military situation!" Putting the kingdom at risk! Such an intolerable treasonous crime of treason...... Even the extermination of the whole clan is not enough to atonement for the crime! ”

"Your Excellency Bordeaux, don't be impatient." Mayikurodfu glanced at the bald sage, twisted his long white beard, swept his gaze to the people below, and asked: "The invasion of the imperial army is the top priority, and the previous truth is no longer the focus of discussion, so have you come up with a countermeasure now?" Lord Priscilla, what do you think of Baliyère being your domain? ”

Priscilla frowned slightly, obviously unhappy, and said, "Can I understand that Cheng Xian intends to put all the blame on the concubine?" Hmph, although Baliyère is the territory of the concubine, the local guard is a well-known fool who has never obeyed the discipline of the concubine, so no matter how you blame, it is not the concubine's fault. ”

In the face of her arrogant attitude, Bordeaux suddenly became angry, and couldn't help but scold: "Is it still the fault of the Sage Society?" Priscilla, a black widow who became the lord's wife, how could you have the safety of the kingdom at heart? Now that the South is in danger, even if you are the chosen one, you will not escape punishment! ”

Before Priscilla could get angry, Mai Kurodfu immediately came out and said, "Your Excellency Bordeaux, this is a serious statement. Mistress Priscilla, the Magi are not trying to shift the blame to you, but the stakes are high, and we need to hear from you. ”

"Heh, the invasion of the empire has become an established fact, then just surrender to the empire, it will not benefit anyone to make a big move, and then the concubine will personally meet the emperor of the empire, and let the emperor hand over the throne to the concubine."

Hearing Priscilla's arrogant laughter, anyone could see that Priscilla was deliberately angry with Bordeaux, after all, she was also notoriously arrogant and ruthless, if ordinary people dared to say that she was a black widow in front of her, she would have died a long time ago and could not die again.

Priscilla was clearly unreliable, and Mai Kurodfo lost interest and swept his gaze to the noble group and the Knights.

At this time, a middle-aged nobleman came out with a sad face and said: "Lord Priscilla is right about one thing, the invasion of the empire has become a fact, instead of spending money and making a big fight, it is better to send representatives to negotiate with the empire as before, and temporarily send them with some gold and silver treasures and court beauties, although it is not enough for them to withdraw their troops, but the truce should be possible." ”

When the other nobles heard this, they nodded in agreement, after all, the south is a rich land, and once a large-scale war is launched, it will inevitably endanger their various industries in the south, which all nobles do not want to see, at least until the money of the south is removed, they will never agree to start a war.

The knights were in an uproar, and some knights with strong blood and strength immediately stood up and sternly retorted, believing that it was humiliating for the country to send envoys to discuss peace before the war officially began, and it would inevitably be ridiculed by the countries of the world in the future.

Yurius's sharp gaze stared directly at the middle-aged nobleman, and said in a deep voice: "If it is just a small friction between the borders like before, the negotiation will not hurt, but now that the empire has risen an unrighteous army, it has occupied several cities in the south of me, burned, killed and looted, aroused the anger of the people, if peace is negotiated at this time, I am afraid it will ......."

Zhang Hao snorted lightly, walked out and answered: "I'm afraid everyone will think that some people in the kingdom sell the country for glory and don't save the people from fire and water. ”

The middle-aged nobleman blushed with anger, and immediately reprimanded angrily: "You are talking nonsense! If it weren't for the poor supervision of your Knights, would such evil have happened? If you are guilty, hmph, your knights are to blame! ”

The two camps insist on their own words, and you and I quarrel with each other, and negotiations will only chill the people, and counterattacks will only expand the situation and worsen the situation, and there are great drawbacks in either side's proposal.

Seeing that the two sides were deadlocked, Kursius grabbed the hilt of his sword and walked to the middle, cleared his throat and shouted, "Colleagues! Can you calm down and listen to me? ”

Kursius is not only a representative of the army, but also inherits the title of duke, and is also the most vocal chosen king, and has a lot of prestige among the knights and the noble group, so no one will object to her speech.

After the hall gradually quieted down, Kurxiu raised his eyebrows before he spoke: "The war came suddenly, it is said that I know that the empire only used troops in a hurry, and it was unexpectedly successful to capture the southwest border before it was an inch, that is to say, the empire never thought of starting a war at this time from the beginning, so I suspect that someone is manipulating behind it." ”

Speaking of this, Kurxiu subconsciously looked at the empty side, and his heart was quite heavy, Phyllis was dead, and Xia Lan also disappeared mysteriously......

Although it was ridiculous, she had a strong premonition that Xia Lan had some connection with this matter, which couldn't help but make her feel annoyed, she still believed in Xia Lan too much, if she could have ruthlessly put Xia Lan under house arrest or even torture her, maybe she would have been able to investigate the truth behind this.

"Someone with a heart?" Zhang Hao's eyes swept around the crowd, and he didn't see either Xia Lan or Zhao Shengcai, which also made him very suspicious, could this matter be a ghost they worked together?

Kursius continued: "I think it's best to hold on to the situation now, let the local guards strengthen their vigilance, negotiate with the empire to ease the situation, and find out the cause of the matter before making the next decision, so as to prevent the expansion of the incident and being exploited by those who have intentions." Of course, for those homeless refugees, we must be properly resettled, so I might as well take the lead in donating a large amount of money to drive everyone, what do you think? ”

This is a great opportunity, and if things go the way she says, she will surely gain unprecedented prestige and be closer to the throne.

Kursius, you're a fierce rival......

In the midst of the aristocratic group, a young nobleman with a pale face was staring at Kurxiu with a chill in his eyes, it was the puppet that Su Shu had inserted.

But what if you could see that someone was behind the scenes?

The young nobleman smiled dumbly, or after a while, your seemingly strong little face would definitely become panicked!

"- Report! There is an urgent military situation from the north! ”

The door was suddenly pushed open, and a soldier rushed in, shouting before he had time to salute: "The northern fortress is lost!" The Gustic Holy Kingdom has led tens of thousands of elven armies to the northern hinterland! They also said that Luganica would cede half of the northern land in return......"

"What did you say?!"

"How dare the northern kingdom be treacherous?!"

"Could it be...... The Empire and the Holy Kingdom are secretly conspiring against us? How can it be! There is a huge cultural gap between the Holy Kingdom and the Empire, one in the Far North and the other in the Far South, and there has never been any contact, not to mention that if Luganica suffers a catastrophe, which country will be able to contain the Empire at that time? Stupid! The Holy Kingdom is bringing about its own destruction! ”

Everyone's faces changed drastically, and no one could understand why the Gustic Holy Kingdom would stab him in the back.

Why?

The young nobleman laughed even more, as he took control of the defenders of the northern fortress as a puppet, and then sent troops under false orders to destroy an important mineral vein of the ancient kingdom by surprise.

You must know that the climate in the Far North is harsh, the mountains are long, and the environment is harsh, and the Gustic Sacred Kingdom is in a dilemma, and can only rely on mining and processing magic ore to maintain its national strength, and now the ore veins have been seriously destroyed, coupled with Su Shu's deliberate manipulation, the Gustic Sacred Kingdom quickly reacted and sent troops to attack in anger.

Before everyone could recover their senses, another soldier hurriedly ran in and saluted, "Ladies and gentlemen, Kararaghi has withdrawn from the embassy, claiming to sever all diplomatic relations with Lugnika and expel all Lugnica people from Kararaj. ”

The hall suddenly became unusually silent, so quiet that you could hear a needle dropping.

Kalaraj is a trade-oriented urban powerhouse, and almost all the nobles in the royal capital have properties there, and if he breaks off diplomatic relations with Kalaraj, the consequences can be imagined, although it will not collapse Lugnica's economy, but the damage will be unprecedented.

Ma Yikurodfu barely calmed down, looked at the purple-haired girl with a shocked face below, and said slowly: "Lord Anastasia, you were born in Kalaraj, and you are also the current president of the Hexin Chamber of Commerce, and you have a pivotal position in Kalaraj, I think you are the most vocal person in this matter." ”

"I totally ......" Anastasia opened her mouth, but finally said nothing, she was now confused, and she did not understand why her home country had suddenly broken off diplomatic relations with Lugnica, which was so unbelievable.

Of course there will be a break of diplomatic relations!

The young nobleman curled his lips because he blocked all trade routes in the West, not only expelled the passing merchants of Kararaghi, but also wantonly plundered their belongings, and under his inducement, the merchants of Kararaj jointly protested, and the severance of diplomatic relations with Lugonica naturally became the only countermeasure for Kararaj.

Faced with the siege of the three major powers of the world at once, Lugnica has no choice but to be forced into war.

As long as Anastasia uses the power of the Hexin Chamber of Commerce to maneuver around, the severance of diplomatic relations with Kararaghi is only temporary, so the kingdom's top brass unanimously focuses on the empire and the Holy Kingdom.

"War, ......" Zhang Hao laughed excitedly, couldn't help but take the initiative to ask, and said confidently: "Leave it to me on the imperial side!" I've heard that they like to play hard in war, so I like to go head-to-head with this kind of opponent to see who can get tough! ”

Firut sneered, "You guys love to talk big, but the opponent is a notoriously brutal empire, Miss Ben advises you not to join in the fun." ”

"Oh?" Zhang Hao hugged Filut's fragrant shoulder, squeezed his eyebrows and said, "Young lady won't be worried about my safety, right?" ”

Firut's face was slightly red, and he turned his head and said, "Hmph! Take your dirty hands away, don't move your hands and feet, and be careful that I beat you. ”

"These two guys ......" Yurius shook his head helplessly, and also walked out, and said: "The elves have a deep relationship with me, and I know the weaknesses of the elves best, so those ignorant elves in the Northern Holy Kingdom will use my sword to cut them off." ”

Reinharut, who had been silent on the side for a long time, finally came out and said solemnly: "Then, Zhang Hao, by Rius, it is a good thing that the elites of your two knights can take the initiative to stand up and share the worries of the kingdom, but the battlefield is not a child's play, are you sure that you have the courage to match it?" No matter who your opponent is, you must be determined to cut off all enemies who come to you. ”

"Guaranteed to complete the chief's mission!"

"I will complete my mission in the name of a knight!"

The two replied in unison, and then led the order to their respective battlefields.

However, all this fell into the eyes of the young nobleman, and no one could hear the unbridled laughter in his heart.
