Chapter 643
When the queen was angry with herself, the voice of the maid came from outside the door: "Your Majesty, the Marquis of Terrence has asked to see you." ”
"Didn't I say that? Nobody is seen! The queen shouted angrily.
As soon as she finished yelling, she was suddenly stunned, and then hurriedly said: "Wait, you're talking about the first-class marquis of the Saint Teresan Empire, Terrence with dozens of independent mecha warbands?" ”
"Yes, Her Majesty." The maid outside the door replied.
"What is he doing here?" The queen was silent for a moment, and then said aloud: "The Marquis of Terrence has a high status, and I can't afford to give him such face, so let him in." ”
"Yes!" There was a rustling sound in the doorway, followed by the crisp sound of metal boots on the marble floor.
The queen looked at her dress, and then realized that she was difficult to see in the way she looked, so she hurriedly returned to the bed, put down the veil on the bed, and covered herself.
There was a polite knock at the door, and the queen cleared her throat and said solemnly, "Come in." ”
Two beautiful maids immediately opened the queen's door, and a tall young man with a handsome face appeared at the door.
As soon as the young man appeared, he slammed his heel and nodded to the queen who was lying on the bed, "Your Majesty meets the queen, may the queen be in good health." ”
When the queen saw the Marquis of Terrence, her heart couldn't help but flutter. You know, Terrence is the dream lover of countless girls in the Saint-Teresa Empire. Not only is the status noble, but also the strength is strong, the most important thing is that it is not only polite and gentlemanly, but also handsome and mighty, and magnificent.
As a marquis, Terrence was very young, only twenty-five years old. However, his subordinates have a huge inheritance left by their ancestors, and the twelve warbands are all knight-level mechas, which are almost comparable to the military power of the entire capital star.
Of course, compared to the entire army of the St. Teresan Empire, the Marquis of Terrence still has obvious disadvantages, but the main responsibility of the St. Teresan military department is to hold the border, and elite forces such as the Golden Skull Warband are arranged on the border.
The king of St. Teresa naturally knew that Terrence was threatening, and being young meant being ambitious, let alone a young marquis with a heavy army that was enough to occupy the entire capital star in one day.
As a result, the king forcibly replaced Terrence's fiefdom with a star field close to the border of the Iga Empire. This star field, known as the "Gap of Brimstone", is a natural barrier zone composed of hundreds of planets, and from the perspective of strategic location, it is like choking the throat of the other side, which can effectively prevent the invasion of large-scale starships from the direction of the Iga Empire.
The area of this star field is three times larger than the area of the star field given to the Grand Duke of White Roland, and the planets under its jurisdiction are also three times larger, which definitely exceeds the limit of a marquisdom.
The former star field of Marquis of Terrence was only one-tenth of the current "Brimstone Gap", and except for its proximity to the capital star, it was mediocre in all aspects.
The King of St. Teresa was only worried about the threat of the Marquis of Terrence and wanted to use the power of the Marquis of Terrence to deter the Iga Empire, so he thought of such a plan to exchange the big for the small, and the military strategic place in exchange for his throne from being threatened.
This plan was naturally opposed by Quinn, the generalissimo of the Saint-Teresa Empire, and even the queen, who had just married the king at that time, was strongly opposed.
Generalissimo Quinn pointed out sharply that strategic military locations are more important than the throne, not to mention whether Terrence has dissenting intentions, even if there is really dissenting intentions to attack the capital star and launch a military coup, the country will not perish, and if the gate barrier in the east of the country is handed over to Terrence, once Terrence lures the wolf into the house, the country will surely perish.
The queen at that time had the same view. If she was worried about Terrence's forces, she could use other methods to divide and disintegrate, instead of replacing an ordinary star field that was closer to the throne with a distant strategic star field.
The king hesitated and decided to reconsider the plan, but Terrence concentrated his superior forces, claiming to have accepted the king's terms and was ready to move to the Gorge of Brimstone to defend the eastern gate for the country.
Obviously, if the king breaks his promise, then Terrence's warbands will immediately pounce on the capital star. Considering the possible consequences, the king, in the spirit of harmony in his governing philosophy, could only give the "Brimstone Gap" to the Marquis of Terrence.
With the new huge territory, the power of the Marquis of Terrence is also rising in the Saint-Teresa Empire, and after a period of development, the current Marquis of Terrence, even if the territory is not close to the capital star, its strength is enough to threaten the capital star.
Of course, less than twenty of all the planets in the "Gap of Brimstone" are suitable for human existence, which also restricts his further development and growth from the objective conditions.
The problem is that for a person who is already ambitious, when the objective conditions are limited, the first thing he thinks of is to change the objective conditions.
The queen is a wise man, so she can understand the true intentions of the Marquis of Terrence. But the queen couldn't help but wonder why the Marquis of Terrence came to her?
Thinking of this, the queen couldn't help but smile faintly, and said through the soft gauze tent: "What phoenix body is healthy, it is already very good that this palace can be alive." ”
Marquis Terrence smiled charmingly, "The queen is talking about Captain Orne?" Servant devouring the Lord is indeed one of the most hated things in the world. But fortunately, Orn is dead, and the queen does not need to be afraid. As for your brother's death, I think His Majesty the King also has his own difficulties in dealing with this matter. ”
"Difficulty?" The queen sighed, "For the sake of his trouble, I can't avenge my brother's blood revenge, what is the use of such a husband?" Lord Terrence, I'm afraid you're here as a lobbyist for the King, right? ”
Terrence did not answer immediately, but turned away calmly and said to the two maids, "Go out first." ”
The two maids were relieved, nodded and bowed, and walked out of the queen's room quickly, not forgetting to close the door before leaving the door.
You must know that the queen's complaint to the king just now is definitely not something that a maid like them can hear, and this kind of words are completely evil in their ears, and once the queen remembers that they have heard such words one day, they will be given an excuse to teach them a hard lesson.
Terrence told them to avoid it, and they naturally couldn't ask for it. R1148
