Chapter 441 - The Proposal to Form a Combined Army Again (II
"Hmm, Magic Sword, I'm sorry Grand Duke, this princess hasn't heard of it. Isabella said without changing her face.
"Yes. ”
Barn gave Isabella a meaningful look, then turned and walked out.
As soon as Barn's figure disappeared, Isabella suddenly collapsed on the throne, and when Barn asked about the magic sword Apophis, the first thought in her mind was what Barn had discovered.
The thanks thing is that she is mentally strong enough to maintain her true colors in Barn's gaze that seems to reach people's hearts.
As soon as Barn left, Cyrus walked in from outside, and when she saw Isabella who was slumped on the throne, her face changed and she hurriedly rushed to Isabella, gently helped Isabella up, and said with concern: "Your Royal Highness, are you okay?"
"Cyrus, how did Barn know about the Magic Sword?" Isabella replied.
Cyrus frowned when she heard this, as a playmate and personal bodyguard of Princess Isabella from childhood to adulthood, Isabella had almost no secrets about her. Therefore, as for the real cause of the death of Grand Duke Baschut, Sellers can be regarded as knowing a thing or two.
After pondering for a while, Cyrus slowly spoke: "Your Royal Highness, there are no more than five people in the entire Vetaron who know about the Demon Sword Apophis. ”
"Go on. ”
"Yes, these five people are His Majesty the Emperor, Your Royal Highness you and me, and the second prince Edgar, who presented the magic sword to His Majesty the Emperor, and the last person is Nuren, the Imperial intelligence officer who brought the magic sword to Vetaron. But..."
"But what?" Isabella asked.
"However, according to reliable sources, it seems that Nuren has been killed, so it is impossible for the Grand Duke of Barn to learn about the magic sword from Nuren. Sellers analyzed.
Obviously, Isabella and Cyrus's information about the magic sword was limited to the fact that the magic sword was brought to the imperial capital of Valitalon by the intelligence officer named Nuren, and they had no idea where Nuren got the magic sword.
"You mean, it's impossible for my father to leak this information, and you and I can't, so the only one who can tell Barn about it is my half-brother Edgar, but I don't understand what he told Barn about it? Isabella said with a frown.
"This..."
Cyrus was also embarrassed when he heard this, indeed, if it was really Edgar who told Barn about the magic sword, then what was the purpose of his doing this? Could it be that it was just to draw Barn's anger to Isabella? But if Barn knew the true cause of his father's death, then it was indeed the Emperor Leon III who would bear the brunt of his revenge, but Edgar, who presented the magic sword to Leon III, could also be regarded as one of the culprits, and he could not escape Barn's revenge.
After thinking about it, Isabella and Cyrus didn't figure it out, so they simply put this matter aside for the time being.
......
meanwhile
After leaving the palace, Barn asked the palace guards to find him a war horse, and quickly returned to the Grand Duke's mansion.
As soon as they got off the horse, the figures of Su Yang and the others rushed out of the mansion, and collectively looked at Bahn and said, "Bahn, are you okay?"
"It's okay, what can I do, you are so nervous, are you worried that I will assassinate the Emperor?" Barn quipped.
But when he saw the expressions of everyone that you guessed correctly, his expression couldn't help but froze, and he slowly spoke: "Don't worry, I wouldn't be so impulsive until I found out who killed my father with the magic sword." ”
Hearing Barn's words, Su Yang and the others glanced at each other, and they all breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.
Seeing that the worry on everyone's faces gradually faded, Barn also summed up the gains of these two trips to the palace in his heart: first, his father did not die at the hands of the violent assassins of the royal family, but died under the so-called magic sword Apophis. Secondly, someone is secretly preventing him from investigating the truth of this matter, and the people who can do this are nothing more than a few members of the royal family, this person may be the emperor of the empire, or it may be Isabella, the royal daughter, and it may be the princes who have been trying to win over his father. Finally, the people who can make the empire tell such a big lie are only some people who are important to the empire except for the members of the imperial family, but Barn couldn't think about it for a long time who is worthy of the empire besides the royal family.
"Young Master, you're back, how is the situation?"
At this time, the old butler stepped forward and asked.
Hearing this, Barn suddenly eased up from his thoughts, and found that only the old butler was standing here beside him, and Su Yang and the others had already walked aside to chat when they saw him in deep thought.
Shaking his head slightly, Barn replied in a low voice, "I tried Isabella, but she behaved like usual, and I guess there was a half chance that she didn't know about it." ”
"Since the young master thinks that there is nothing abnormal about Princess Isabella, why do you say that there is only a half possibility?" the old butler was puzzled.
"Heh..."
Bath sneered: "People of the royal family, don't trust everything, this is what my father once said, so no matter how natural Isabella behaves, I can only trust half of her." ”
"I see, then what arrangements does Princess Isabella have for you next, young master, do you plan to let you take over the war in the south, or?" asked the old butler.
"The war in the south is handled by my father's old subordinates, I don't know much about military affairs, and it's useless to go. Isabella: She wants me to form another combined army to fight the brutal raiders hiding in the southern valleys. Bath said.
Crusade against the Violent Raiders?
The old butler pondered for a moment, wondering what Isabella's purpose was in doing this. Yes, for the current Barnes, the crusade against the violent search and capture group is a good arrangement, not only to take this opportunity to rescue the looted Emily, but also to accumulate military merits and experience, and lay the foundation for taking over the entire southern province in the future.
But the problem is that if you want to crusade against the mysterious organization of the Violent Search and Capture Group, it will not take half a star, and who knows how much energy this organization has secretly accumulated in this organization that has been hidden. If too much time is spent on this matter, then the royal family may use this as a reason to gradually regain control of the six southern provinces from the hands of the Basiut family, in which case the blow to the entire Basiut family will be fatal.
"Young Master, what do you think?"
After much thought, the old butler decided to listen to Barn's thoughts first.
Barn first lowered his head, then raised his head again, and said with a gleam in his eyes: "I must save Emily from those bastards, I promised her that I would protect her for the rest of her life, this is a man's promise, so I have to do it." ”
Hearing Barn's thoughts, the old butler was not only not annoyed, but was very happy, because he found that the young master, who was usually indifferent to the world, seemed to have matured a lot after this series of events, and I believe that the old man's spirit in the sky would also be pleased with this.
As for the problem of the southern provinces, it will be temporarily left to the old lord's old ministry to deal with, as long as Barn can grow up quickly, even if the royal family takes back control of the six southern provinces from the Bashut family, the old butler also believes that Barn will be able to regain it in the future.
"Since this is the case, then the young master, you should be bold and do it, the family has its own old slave to take care of everything for the young master. "The old butler owes a debt.
Barn's eyes were wet, and he stared for a long time at the old man who had served his grandfather, served his father, and now served him, and had worked hard for the Bashutt family all his life. Then Barn bent down and bowed deeply to the old butler, "Thank you, old butler. ”
"Where, the young master is killing the old slave. The old butler hurriedly helped Barn to his feet.
......
Subsequently, Barn informed Su Yang and the others of Isabella's decision, and Su Yang, as the person who dealt with the most violent search and arrest groups, naturally joined the combined army this time.
Su Yang's joining, Han Menglan and Jiuxian'er are naturally no exception, but Queen Ping, who was with them, also participated in the last Vetaron riot because of the coastal Sanban Street, and as soon as Magadha rushed back to the coastal Sanban Street angrily, I believe that the next coastal Sanban Street will usher in the iron-blooded rectification of Queen Ping.
As for Forrest Gump and Silan, because they were very concerned about the reason for the Dark Elves to provoke the war, after Barn's mood returned to normal, they left Vetaron, and according to Forrest Gump, their next destination will be the starting point of the outbreak of the Dark Elves plague - Noypera. Buwanga, who had nothing to deal with, joined the Combine this time, and planned to have Orka informed and asked Basturu and a few people to come to their aid, because Buwanga had a hunch that the violent search and capture group they would face next would be a behemoth.
When they learned that Buwanga was willing to ask the Bantu to help, Su Yang and Bahn became a little more confident about this operation.
Just as the three of them were discussing some details of the combined army's operations in the study, a guard suddenly ran in and said, "The head of the family, His Royal Highness Edgar, the second prince, is asking to see him outside the mansion. ”
Edgar?
Bahn, Su Yang, and Buwanga all glanced at each other, and then Su Yang spoke: "Since His Royal Highness the prince has come to the door, there must be something to talk to Barn, Brother Buwanga, let's avoid it." ”
After Su Yang and Buwanga left the study, Barn glanced at the guard standing on the side and said:
"Yes, please. ”
