The knight who answered Xiao Yan's question clearly heard Xiao Yan's words, he glanced at the young man's back, drew a cross on his chest, and exclaimed in a low voice: "Praise my Lord, you have made me hear the hadith." ”

After speaking, the knight suddenly turned over and rushed down the road at high speed, which was more like a rushing action, which made the Goth knights in front of them extremely nervous, and they even subconsciously raised the small shield in their hands and raised the hideous mace.

The knight of the Holy Crown stopped abruptly ten yards from the Gothic knights and said in a loud voice, "Lord Quister, I have just received the hadith. ”

Quist drew a cross on his chest, turned his back to his men, and said, "I'm listening." ”

"How can he who is disrespectful to the Lord last?"

Quist's body froze slightly, and he looked up at the neat-looking Gothic cavalry in front of him again, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said, "I see, praise the Lord, Amen." ”

After saying that, Quist turned around suddenly, ignoring the surprised eyes of the Goth knights behind him, turned on his horse, and returned to Xiao Yan's side with his men. There, the knights of the Holy Crown were already fully armed, and then these knights escorted Xiao Yan to the side of the road. There was a temporary resting place for the Knights of the Holy Crown, and the knights stood outside calmly, watching the Gothic Knights overtake them from behind.

The knight, Paktu, moved back and forth throughout the ranks, as if to show some kind of respect, or to show the value of his existence. It's just that no matter how you look at this action, there is a sense of panic in it, in a sense, he seems to use this method to avoid making eye contact with Xiao Yan. I don't want Xiao Yan to have anything to do with the emperor.

Xiao Yan sat in the rest point. Asked in a low voice, "The emperor's fourth daughter?" Her Royal Highness Princess Lelia? Is she okay? ”

"She is in the Abbey of Speyer. Lord Fryman, Bishop Goggle has rejected Her Royal Highness Princess Lelia's request to donate her entire property. This time the emperor came to the monastery, and it seems that he also has something to do with Her Royal Highness Princess Lelia. ”

Xiao Yan could hear a teenager crying at the bottom of his will. tells about the love for the first beauty of the empire, and tells about his thoughts and pain. However, this kind of will was regarded as boring by Xiao Yan, a little boy who was only a teenager a few years ago, actually recalled a certain number one beauty in the empire, this kind of words sounded like no existence at all. In Xiao Yan's opinion. This little Fryman is not so much in love with Lelia, who was eighteen years old at the time, but rather because this little Fryman has been separated from his parents since he was a child, and he treats Lelia as a sister and a mother. As for beauty, Xiao Yan doesn't feel anything. In reality, none of the women he knows are not beautiful, even Calristo has a strong beauty that makes people intoxicated, and putting these women's feelings here, Lelia is actually nothing.

"Lelia does not have direct inheritance rights and has no order of rank. A person who is not crowned by the Pope cannot become a Holy Emperor. But just got married a year ago. Lelia, who was widowed due to the sudden death of her husband, still owns the fiefdom of East Francia and represents some of the East Frankish nobility. Other than that. She also had a high reputation in Saxon aristocratic circles. ”

Quister stood aside and whispered to the brown-haired boy. It is very easy to find out how little Frymann left Munich and how Weishenme was hunted down. For his part, Quister wanted to give little Fryman some explanation, so that the lord in front of him could understand what kind of vortex he was in.

"Lelia herself does not have direct inheritance, but her children have the right to inherit the throne, especially since the current emperor has no descendants, this situation is easy for some ambitious guys to take advantage of."

Xiao Yan looked at his scepter and whispered, "The nobles of Bavaria and Saxony are secretly fighting to the death around the emperor of the entire Holy Empire. The emperor who came out of Italy first went to Munich, then arrived at the Abbey of Speyer with the nobles of Bavaria, and within a few days the nobles of East Francia, the nobles of Saxony arrived. The Emperor may want to make a mediation and make a marriage. Lelia should be the most bargaining chip, she has the dual status of East Francian nobility and Saxon nobility, and once the Bavarian nobles marry her, their children will have the right to inherit the emperor in higher order. ”

Xiao Yan nodded slightly and said, "But Lelia herself is unwilling to do this. ”

"That's why, my lord, Lelia doesn't want to go to Bavaria, so she offers to donate all her possessions."

Xiao Yan said: "Okay, this is an internal matter of the empire, and I am more concerned about the grain. ”

"I need to remind you, my lord, that your Rose Collar is very important to the Bavarian aristocracy."

Quister looked at Xiao Yan and said, "If you want to go a little west from the Duchy of Bavaria through the Black Forest, the Rose Collar of Württemberg is the best choice. The status there is more important than you might think, and the key issue is that the Rose Collar itself is a product of political compromise whose owner changes with political struggles. ”

Xiao Yan asked in a low voice, "For example, my father?" ”

"We've looked into something, my lord, you were in Munich as a hostage before your father's accident. That's because your father is a descendant of Caroline. At the same time, your sister appears in Berlin as a hostage, and that's because your grandfather is a count of Bavaria. When the Frankish nobility compromised with the Bavarian nobility, the Rose Collar would be very normal. On the other hand, if the two can't be compromised, or if another nobleman shili is involved, the Rose Collar will become very dangerous. ”

Xiao Yan turned his head to look at the knights who were still advancing outside the stone house, and said, "So, this is the reason why my mother died of a serious illness, my father had an accident, and I was hunted down and killed repeatedly. ”

"Württemberg is northwest of Munich, and it doesn't take long to get from Munich to Roselle, but you end up on the other side, and Strasbourg is just west of Munich."

Quister did not answer Xiao Yan's question, but suddenly explained the geographical knowledge that most nobles knew. This didn't fit his identity, or rather, he couldn't lie, so he avoided Xiao Yan's question.

"If they hadn't seen me, I mean Paktu, I would have been safe by now. But they saw me, and my environment deteriorated dramatically. Well, tell the cardinal here, you say his name is Goger? Tell Bishop Goggle that I will leave tonight, and ask him to prepare enough food for me to buy with a portion of the jewelry. ”

"I will arrange a meeting with Bishop Goger with you at once, and before that, you can go to the warehouse of the monastery first, and we can count the food you need first. Alternatively, Bishop Goggle can also meet you there. ”

Xiao Yan understood what Quister meant, in any case, the identity of little Fryman was completely unworthy in the Speyer Abbey. With the arrival of Otto III, nobles from all over the Holy Empire will continue to come, and the number of counts here may be very large, and even more so than viscounts below the earl. It would be a great embarrassment for the Holy See if even those nobles were not to be received, but openly to receive a small lord who had not even arrived in his fiefdom and was recognized by the House of Lords. It will also make the nobles of the Holy Empire deeply wary of the arrival of little Fryman, and the Holy See has not yet reached the point of openly turning against the countries of Europe.

Therefore, a meeting with Bishop Goger near the warehouse would have been a ceremonial one, and even Otto III could not have had anything to fault with such a meeting.

Xiao Yan nodded and said, "Haode, I can meet with Bishop Goger at any time and place, but before I do that, I have something to remind you of. ”

Quist smiled slightly, his long blonde hair fluctuating slightly in his helmet, making him look more like a king than a squad leader. The Holy Crown Knight knew about Xiao Yan's unspoken reminder, and he whispered, "Yes, my lord, I know what you have to say. The meeting with Lord Goggle will be important and secret, and we will not allow the worldly nobles to interfere with this meeting. ”

"You should also be wary of unsettling factors that could cause chaos."

Quister turned his head to look at the ranks of emperors who were still surging outside the room, and said, "Of course, all uneasiness will be nipped in the bud by us, and those who are not devout to the Lord, and those who dare to question us, should be regarded as heretics. ”

After hearing this, Xiao Yan nodded slightly, stood up, and looked out of the window of the room.

At this time, the Gothic knight Paktu, who was galloping back and forth and shouting loudly, happened to run to this vicinity, and the young knight somehow subconsciously turned his head to look.

Xiao Yan stood behind the window, looking at Paktu's gaze. The corners of his mouth suddenly curled slightly, and under Paktu's gaze, the brown-haired boy drew a line under his neck with the thumb of his right hand.

Paktu's body shuddered suddenly, his face hidden from the visor, but his gaze looked a little crazy. He seemed to want to break away from the team and rush towards Xiao Yan, and he seemed to want to run away from the team, running as far as possible.

"This is your first enemy, isn't it, little Fryman?"

Xiao Yan asked calmly in his mind. (To be continued......)
