Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Man on the Golden Chair
Judging from the appearance alone, this is undoubtedly a luxurious room, with carpets woven from silk, tables and chairs made of expensive nanmu, and rare ornaments from the elves hanging on the walls, all of which show the extraordinary identity of the owner. Normally, such a room full of luxuries always gives people a feeling of dizziness, they don't know where to look, and they can't concentrate at all, but this room is not like this, the white walls stand quietly, and the violets on the table exude a faint fragrance, which is refreshing, and even the restless heart will involuntarily settle down. The freshness of the seaside and the tranquility of the forest are both present in this special room at the same time. I heard that the feeling of the room will change because of the change of the owner, even if it is the same room, the exact same layout, the owner is different, and the feeling will be different, and such a quiet atmosphere, probably inseparable from the owner here, and at this moment, the owner of this room is sitting on the chair in the room.
The woman sitting on the chair has a pair of ice blue eyes, and her appearance is also overwhelming, it seems that as long as she looks back slightly, the whole world will stop for her for a moment. There seems to be a magical power in her, no matter how impatient she is, as long as she walks to her side, she will become quiet. At this moment, the woman was taking the information handed over by another woman wearing the uniform of a violet academy teacher and browsing carefully.
"Huh......" The woman suddenly let out a voice of surprise: "Although I thought of her unusual origin, I didn't expect to guess wrong, don't those old guys have any outstanding juniors?"
The Violet Academy teacher replied, "I can't comment on that, but what is she going to do about it?"
"Whatever you have to do," the woman smiled lightly, stood up and walked to the window, looking at the students of Violet Academy who passed by from time to time outside, "After all, we are just an academy, and we don't need to worry about these things." Besides, if she dares to come to us, then why should we not accept it? However, this matter must be kept strictly secret, after all, she is a student of our academy. ”
"Yes, I see, Dean. The female teacher replied and was about to step down. If others heard her address to women, they would definitely be surprised, it turned out that this peerless woman was actually the current principal of Violet Academy! You must know that the deans of the three major academies of the Demon Martial Continent are each a god-level powerhouse, and they have never been broken, and it is precisely because of this that the three academies can always stand tall in the passage of tens of thousands of years. In other words, this woman, who doesn't seem to be very old, is already a god-level powerhouse!
"Wait," the dean suddenly stopped, "what about the other person?
"I'm sorry, Dean," the female teacher replied, turning around, "We tried our best to find out in the five empires, but we couldn't find anything before him, not even a trace of him, as if he suddenly appeared on the mainland." ”
"Oh?" the dean's eyebrows frowned slightly, she knew that the Violet Academy's intelligence gathering ability couldn't find anything about him before, which was unexpected for her: "You go out first." ”
The female teacher bowed slightly and left the room, leaving only the dean slowly pondering: "The person who suddenly appeared?"
It is a splendid palace with smooth white marble floors, and various statues stand on both sides of the road, each of which is lifelike as if it were flesh and blood.
Inside the palace, there is a huge hall, even if it can accommodate thousands of people, I am afraid there will be no problem. In the middle of the hall was a carpet of red and gold that stretched from the doorway to the center of the hall, and a chair made of gold at the end of the carpet was located on the steps, and as long as he sat on it, he could look down on the people below, and those below had to raise their heads to see the people sitting on the golden chairs.
At this moment, on this golden chair, which obviously had an unusual significance, sat a middle-aged man, although the mottled years had carved obvious marks on his face, it could still be seen that this was a rather handsome man. His expression was calm, but there was a strong self-confidence in his body, as if nothing could stop him.
The man looked at the people standing below, there were only a few dozen people in the huge hall, and those richly decorated pillars stood there silently without saying a word, making the hall seem empty, and it was precisely for this reason that when he sat on this golden chair, he would have an unconscious sense of loneliness, as if he was separated from the whole world, so he rarely sat here. However, today is the day he must sit here, so he can only endure this feeling for the time being, not to mention one more important thing.
"Well, the day-to-day business has been reported. The man sitting in the golden chair spoke slowly, his voice clear and not approachable or disgusting: "However, there is one more thing that needs to be decided here. ”
As soon as these words came out, the people below were a little surprised, but the good quality made them not talk about it, but waited for the man's next words. They all knew that they could not interject when the man was speaking, and only when he had finished speaking, there was room for them to speak, because this man was Landon Bises, the king of the Orlan Empire. Not only does he have extraordinary talent and advanced vision, but he also has the strength of the peak of a demigod, second only to the dean of Violet Academy in the Orlan Empire. Since his accession to the throne, the Orlan Empire, which is already the strongest of the five empires in terms of economic strength, has been on the rise, and the living standards of the people have been greatly improved. In addition, he also vigorously rectified the army and reformed the army system, which greatly improved the combat effectiveness of the army, so that the Orlan Empire, which was once only the fourth largest military force among the five empires, gradually jumped to the second position. Such a king, a king who leads the country to a strong one, will naturally be feared by his courtiers.
Langdon glanced at them: "Now, I need someone, he will represent me, to the Langmu Empire, I don't know who wants to go?"
As soon as the king finished speaking, the ministers began to discuss. Originally, such things as envoys to other countries were done by foreign ministers, but the king wanted to find someone to send an envoy, and the country of the envoy was still the Langmu Empire, which showed that this envoy was unusual. Everyone hesitated, this mission could be an opportunity or a disaster, and there were too many factors involved. The real power figures of the Orlan Empire, such as Kant Augustine, the head of the Augustine family, Penn Franconia, and Stanm Cole, the head of the Cole family, all seemed to have known about this, and stood quietly and did not express their opinions. They are all the pillars of the Orlan Empire, so it is clear that they will not do such a thing, only someone else.
Soon, an old man over half a hundred years old stood up: "The minister is willing to use this body to seek benefits for the empire." "He already has a trace of gray hair on his sideburns, and others know that he is one of the deputy chief of the empire, because he is too old, he is about to retire, probably because he wants to complete this mission, he will resign and return to his own territory, and be a nobleman with peace of mind.
"Okay," the king nodded, "but you have to remember that this time you are not representing the Orlan Empire, but in your own name, understand?"
The ministers were in an uproar, and this time the envoy turned out to be unofficial, which made people have to think about the deep meaning. In the crowd, Steum Cole, the head of the Cole family, was also slightly surprised, King Langdon only told him that he was going to be on an envoy, but did not explain that it was unofficial, which was very different. He looked at the heads of the other two families, but found that the two of them seemed to have guessed, and they didn't even have a little fluctuation in their expressions.
Steum thought to himself, he knew that there was no reason why the king should not tell him what the king had told the other two. The Franconian family and the Augustine family are military families that have been inherited since the founding of the Orlan Empire, and they have military power in their hands, even the king has to be afraid of three points, while his Cole family is to balance the two families, and they were brought up by the king, and the relationship with the king is closer. Since this is not the case, the other two can only get the news from other sources, this is the problem of the family's heritage, after all, the other two families have lasted for tens of thousands of years, which is incomparable to his Cole family.
"Also," King Langdon added, "this time, the sixth princess will also accompany him as a deputy envoy, understand?"
"Understood," although surprised, the old minister still responded: "The minister must live up to his mission." ”
"Okay, you have a month to prepare, let's leave in a month, and I will transfer the entourage to you.
Langdon Bissyth stood up and left the golden chair: "This is the end of the meeting, let's all disperse." With that, he walked straight to the back of the hall, ignoring the ministers below.
In fact, the announcement of his news caused an even greater shock. The Sixth Princesses are empathetic and highly talented, so they are favored by Landon. In addition, this princess is eighteen years old this year, but she has no marriage contract, so naturally there are many nobles staring at her, hoping that Nen will marry this princess. However, this time she followed the envoy to another country, which almost meant that His Majesty the King intended to marry her to the Langmu Empire, which made many people's calculations empty.
Stamm looked at the back of His Majesty's departing King, slightly puzzled. All along, the militarily weak Orlan Empire has been allied with the Langmu Empire, which is at the bottom of the list, to fight against the Guth Empire, which is the most central and powerful of the five empires. However, after Langdon's development over the years, the military strength of the Orlan Empire has far surpassed that of the Langmu Empire, and the military strength is second only to the Gus Empire, and the alliance with the Langmu Empire has become dispensable. However, it was in this form that the king unexpectedly wanted to marry the Langmu Empire to strengthen the alliance, so Stamm was puzzled. You know, this King is a very smart man, and he can't do anything unnecessary or even a waste of resources.
Strange missions, information that the Franconians and Augustines knew in advance, marriages that shouldn't have been, Steum pondered. Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind, and although it was a little incredible, he felt that if it was like this, it would make sense. Langdon's back was gone at this time, and the ministers began to leave in twos and threes, and Steum couldn't help but sigh in his heart: This majesty is really very human. He also turned away, ignoring the ministers who wanted to talk to him, and walked straight back. Since there is such a speculation, it is also time to prepare for what will happen next, after all, if His Majesty really intends to do so, the faster and better the preparation, the better. He knew that within ten years, everything would be uneasy.
