By the time the sun reached Miratri, Kumar was already dressed in a costume that was very characteristic of the Hartland aristocracy.

The lower body is a white wrap skirt called Totti, made of silk, from the silk spit of the cloud silkworm endemic to the mountains of central Hartland. The whole wrap skirt can reach about four meters if unfolded, and it is wrapped in several layers below the waist, hanging down to the top of the feet, and has piping.

The upper body is a black Gudal blouse, extremely fat, almost knee-length. A silk bandana, also black, was wrapped around his head, and a brightly colored bird feather was inserted into it.

He also wore all kinds of jewelry, including gold and silver, and even some precious stones to embellish. On his chest he wore the coat of arms issued to him by seven or eight kingdoms.

As Kumar paced out of the office, every inspector who saw him hurriedly stood aside in horror and saluted, as if they had seen a ghost.

You must know that last time Kumar dressed like this, he executed more than twenty people in one day.

When Kumar's figure finally disappeared from the gate of the Inspectorate, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and found that the clothes behind their backs had been soaked with sweat on this cold day.

Kumar didn't care about the thoughts of the people below, all his thoughts were on the report for a while.

Coming to Halleton Peak, where the royal court is located, Kumar, who is the confidant of the second prince, came to the ancient palace of Agra unhindered under the leadership of the second prince's attendant, which is also the place where the second prince handles government affairs, and the second prince Hart is enjoying breakfast here with Viscount William.

Seeing Kumar come in, William just glanced at it, and Prince Hart was a little more enthusiastic, "Kumar, did you come so early today, have you eaten?" Without waiting for Kumar to answer, Hart said like a waiter on the side: "Serve Kumar a breakfast, our director will definitely bring good news when he comes in full clothes today." ”

William on the side glanced at Kumar's clothes with disdain, in his opinion, this kind of clothes is not even as good as garbage, that is, these hillbillies will like it, and at the same time, he doesn't like these mushy breakfasts in front of him, if he hadn't received a notice from China today, he wouldn't have appeared here at this time.

Kumar was very excited, "The prince still values the old slave." ”

He didn't go to the table, but prostrated in front of Hart and William again, kissed their uppers, and then told his reverence for the two in a chanting voice, and after some movements, Shi Shiran came to his place.

"Kumarqing, let me guess, you must have brought us good news this time, right? Prince Hart smiled at his loyal dog, and the cold face of the night before seemed to be someone else.

"Dear Royal Highness the Prince, I do have good news for you and Viscount William. Kumar immediately stood up and said.

"Oh, and news for me?" After only a few bites, William gave up his breakfast and concentrated on eating the only fruit that looked good.

"Yes, Lord William, under the wise leadership of His Royal Highness the Prince, my men have finally obtained information about some of the mysterious troops, and in order to obtain them, the kingdom has even lost several loyal warriors. "At this time, if you don't sell miserably, when will you wait, the old fritters in officialdom know this well.

Prince Hart was fine, but Viscount William couldn't sit still, "What, what information did you say you got?"

He came up to Kemar in an instant, and lifted the shriveled old man in front of him with one hand, and to be honest, he had had little hope for the so-called head of the Inspectorate since he had seen Kumar's bear-like appearance that day.

In the past two days, he also inquired about some news through some people, and learned that after Kumar returned to the bureau, he was hysterical and furious, and just forced the task to the people below, without any effective plan, and strengthened the idea that this is a waste, and today he came to Hart early in the morning, just to continue to pressure Hart, let him strengthen the collection of intelligence on the skeletons, and if necessary, he can remove this Kumar, and even directly use the people from the Military Intelligence Agency he brought.

But I never expected that what else he could say, this old guy actually claimed that he had brought intelligence.

"Will... William the Great... Adult, old ,,, old slave.... William's hands were so strong that Kumar could barely speak.

At this time, William realized this, let go of his hand, and Kumar, who was hanging in the air, came into a free fall, he was not unable to stand steadily, but he knew what the masters wanted to see, so with a "bang", Kumar sat heavily on the ground.

William bent down, glared at a pair of bull's eyes, and said, "Old thing, say it, remember, you are responsible for every word you say next." ”

Although Kumar knew that William was very interested in the news of the Skull Brigade, he would never have imagined that he would take it so seriously, "Isn't it the hundred-man squad that has always been in the army?

Although he didn't understand, for the sake of his own life, Kumar, who coughed a few times, still replied respectfully, "Lord William, I brought the information of the skeleton brigade, I swear it is true, it was obtained by our people from the governor of a province of the Federation. ”

William continued to stare at him for a while, thinking that the old fellow should not be lying, so he dodged back to his seat, picked up the fruit he had not eaten before, took a bite, and said no more.

Seeing this, Prince Hart scolded Kumar: "You old thing, why don't you tell me what you know quickly, don't you see that Viscount William is listening?"

"Yes, yes, the old slave said. Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Kumar reported the information passed by Song Dazhong to the two masters one by one, and before he spoke, everyone else present had been driven away by Hart, so there was no need to worry about these things being known by others.

"You mean this army has just been formed, are you?" said William, confused.

"Yes, these are all said by that old thing Luo Dingyuan himself. Kumar almost swore to heaven and earth.

William then asked a few more questions, some of which Kumar was able to answer and some of which he couldn't, but he explained them all. Hart is still quite satisfied with this result, after all, this old dog can get these things in less than two days, and he is still capable.

William also treated Kumar a little differently, but he didn't say anything, just sat there and kept thinking about the truth of what Kumar said.

A few minutes later, William glanced at Hart, who hurriedly said, "Kumarqing, you go to the side hall to rest first, and if you have something later, I will have someone call you." I have something to talk about with Viscount William, and today's things are doing very well, please keep up the good work, and the kingdom will award another military merit medal. ”

Hart and Kumar are two people who are close to each other, and they are both slamming bosses who talk about ideals and not treatment.

Kumar hurriedly nodded and retreated, but before going out, he reluctantly glanced at the plate that he hadn't had time to taste... Mush.

"You old thing. Come on, I'm deceiving Kumar to bring another breakfast. Hart naturally saw Kumar's eyes and couldn't help but wonder in his heart.

William looked at his stupid nephew, "Are you so simple, how did you survive until now." ”

When Kumar left, William moved his chair in Hart's direction again, and then whispered, "Little Hart, don't you wonder why your uncle is so interested in a team of only 100 people?"

William nodded his head as Hart spoke, as questioned Kumar as he was.

William took a sip of red wine and whispered again, "In the past twenty years, the Empire has provided a large amount of funding to you allied countries in the southern part of the continent, and you are very aware of this. ”

Hart didn't expect William to say this, but his good court education made him not show any surprise, "Yes, uncle, our Hartland has also relied on the continuous funding of the empire over the years to recover so quickly. ”

Twenty years ago, the Astor Empire implemented a plan called the Shemar Project, which ostensibly meant that in order to increase the national strength of the weaker countries in the Holy Alliance, the Empire specially allocated funds for these kingdoms or principalities to provide all-round funding for them, so that their strength could be rapidly developed.

The first phase of the plan is about several countries in the south of the mainland, but most of the allies are strange that this first phase has been implemented for so many years, and the small countries in other directions of the mainland are almost waiting for the autumn water, and they have not waited for the second phase to appear. But the Astor Empire has indeed provided a lot of money to these southern countries over the years, so they can't say anything, but they keep expecting this kind of good thing to fall on their heads.

And those countries that were subsidized were also entangled, and in the context of being funded, a large number of the new nobles of the empire came to these countries waving checks and grasped their lifeblood.

In fact, these grants are only a superficial part of this plan. William said with a mysterious expression. "This morning I have been given the authority to tell the people in charge of Hartland about the purpose of this plan, and I think it is best to tell you about it. ”

Hart stood up with an excited face. "You mean that the Empire has finally chosen me?" of course he understood the meaning of William's words, although he had been supported by Astor looming behind him for so many years, but this was the first time that he would really put it into his mouth, as if he had seen him sitting on the throne.

Looking at this nephew, William actually has some concerns about choosing him to take the throne, he has always thought that Hart does not have the ability to run a country, but because of Hart and his relatives, he can't say that he doesn't support him. "Yes, your father's attitude is too ambiguous, and he lives often, and the empire can't wait. ”

William's words had already doomed the fate of the old king, Hart's father, but Hart only took pity on his father for less than a second, and left him behind.

"Well, it's time to tell you the truth about the plan. William said solemnly. It all started with a prophecy 20 years ago. ”
