Chapter 3 Familiar and unfamiliar names

The imperial palace of the Saint-Solan Empire, located on the Imperial Power Hill in the imperial capital.

At that time, the Grand Duke of Solan, who was still an important minister of the Romance Empire, finally built the palace here when the St. Soran Empire was the capital, and named this mountain the Imperial Power Mountain, no matter from any aspect, it seems to have the meaning of competing with the Holy See Hill, where the Pope is located.

In the year of the founding of the Saint Solan Empire, the Pompeii Empire, in which the Grand Duke of Solan and the Holy Knights participated in the war, fought twenty-one battles in a row, winning twenty and losing one.

If it weren't for the battle that was lost, which happened to be the last and most crucial battle of the whole war, I am afraid that the territory of the Saint Soran Empire would have expanded a lot to the west and north.

However, even if he lost the key battle, the old lion-like Grand Duke Solan did not leave any benefit to the Holy Sect.

Pompeii, Philip and St. Solan divided the world, and the forces composed of small city-states, large and small knights, mercenary groups, foreign tribes and criminals, heretics, etc., under the indulgence and even support of the Grand Duke of Solan, forcibly occupied the northern part of the Saint Solan Empire and the eastern part of the Pompeii Empire, forming a fourth force outside the three major empires. It is what the people call the land of chaos today, the city of sin in the mouth of the Holy See.

Over the past hundred years, the Holy Church has launched three crusades in succession, all in vain. However, those knights who were pardoned by the Holy See for their sins when they set out under the banner of the Holy Emperor brought ruinous disasters to the cities on the way to the east. There are even many people who did not conquer the Land of Chaos in the end, let alone restore the glory of the Holy Sect there, but stayed and became fallen knights.

Mo Ya's carriage passed through the thick and tall city wall doorway at the foot of the Imperial Power Mountain, and went up the road that spiraled upward.

Huangquan Mountain is located in the center of the imperial capital, and the whole is cylindrical and towering into the clouds. It looks like a lone giant lighthouse on the boundless plain. There are two ways to reach the white castle at the top, which looks like a crown.

One is the passage inside the mountain, and the other is the horse carriage road that winds around the Imperial Power Mountain.

The two little arrow-tailed dragons didn't care about the revolving ramp that was very difficult to run, and they had to go fast all the way. A moment later, the suspended demonic carriage was halfway over.

When the ninth wall of the palace appeared in front of him, Mo Ya opened the curtain of the carriage and looked out the window. Every time she looked down on the imperial capital on the winding mountain road of Huangquan Mountain, she always had a feeling of being shaken and dizzy.

As far as the eye can see, houses with different roofs are like colorful matchboxes. The eight districts are neatly divided by avenues that radiate from the central square in eight directions. Huge cities spread far into the plains, boundless. Only when the black walls of the outer perimeter appear in view like a large mountain, do you know where the edge of the city is.

There is no city in this world that is more beautiful and solid than the imperial capital when viewed from the Imperial Power Mountain. The power to break through a city like St. Solan's capital may only come from within.

Mo Ya pondered, her eyes flickering slightly.

War broke out, and to the west of the empire, the Firean cavalry was rolling in. From the front line, news came one after another, such as how many kilometers the enemy had advanced, which Solan troops had been defeated, which lord had been killed, and which city had fallen.

The hundred-year-old empire is in turmoil.

In the face of the attack of the Philets, Edward I had ordered a frontier army in the northwest to enter the province of Pru to assist the Archduke of Pru in resisting the enemy. At the same time, the two legions stationed near the border city of Longmen have also hurried to support the war zone.

At the same time, Edward also transferred the Red Leaf Knights, one of the five major knights of the empire, to the south of Lulian Province.

It seems that with the support of these troops, there seems to be no big problem in dealing with the first wave of the Feilie Empire's offensive, but Mo Ya knows that when the emperor's order leaves the palace, how to execute it below is not as simple as written in the order.

Because, everyone still has to look at a person's eyes.

Prime Minister Donald.

The carriage went up to the top of the hill, entered the ninth wall, and stopped in front of the palace gates.

Mo Ya walked through the ornate and empty corridor. Escorted by brightly clad guards and servants in embroidered tuxedos, Nana walked into the palace hall.

The originally frowning brows, the moment the door of the council hall opened, also became leisurely with a smile that suddenly hooked up at the corner of his mouth. The change was so fast that the guards leading the way in front of him were distracted for a while. ,

Casually sending the handsome guard a bright smile, Mo Ya walked into the conference hall under the gaze of countless people.

"See Majesty. ”

Mo Ya bowed slightly to Emperor Edward.

On the high throne, a handsome and elegant middle-aged man was quietly contemplating. If it weren't for the people who knew him, I'm afraid no one would have thought that this scholar-like man in front of him would be the ruler of this huge empire.

"Sit. Edward I nodded at his Inspector, and the Empress sitting next to him also smiled at Mo Ya.

Mo Ya stood up and turned around, her gaze sweeping over the faces of the Imperial nobles and ministers present. Poof, he chuckled lightly, and said coquettishly: "I'm really sorry for all the experts, Mo Ya is late." ”

The atmosphere of the originally dull and solemn meeting hall suddenly became strange with the laughter of this charming woman.

Some couldn't help but laugh, some squeezed a strong smile out of their faces, and some simply looked away.

"Female Devil!"

"Vixen!"

These voices, though neat, are silently stored in everyone's heart. Many people didn't even dare to make eye contact with Mo Yaqiao's smiling eyes.

Everyone knew that this young inspector general, who had only been in office for two or three days, came from an old family in the empire.

There are a lot of old families in the empire.

But there are only five families that have been thriving since the time of Grand Duke Solan, or even earlier during the Romance Empire. And one of them is the Imperial Imperial Family Solan.

Being able to sit on an equal footing with the royal family shows the transcendent status of the other four major families. Some families are said to have a longer history and deeper heritage than the Solan family.

In the political situation of the Saint-Soran Empire, the four great families were a very special kind of existence. Their power is omnipresent, but they are willing to remain silent and never directly intervene in political disputes. As long as you don't provoke them directly, nothing happens. But once they are provoked, people will remember the rumors in the history of Saint Soran about how the enemies of the four great families fell.

Every rumor is different, but all equally tragic!

Originally, the four major families have always ignored the dispute between the royal family and Prime Minister Donald and maintained neutrality.

But people never dreamed that just a few days ago, the situation changed abruptly.

At that time, Edward suddenly ordered that the former Inspector General Charlotte be removed from office for dereliction of duty.

This order is like stabbing a hornet's nest.

The Imperial Supervision Department of St. Solan is divided into two departments: internal and external. Internally, it is responsible for supervising various ministries and monitoring hundreds of officials, and externally it is to spy on intelligence, bribe enemy officials, install secret agents, and sabotage and assassination. Not only does it control an intelligence network all over the mainland, but it also has thousands of secret agents, killers, and direct surveillance troops under its command.

Until then, the Ministry of Supervision had been in the hands of Prime Minister Donald and was one of the most important components of Donald's power.

Edward's order was tantamount to a declaration of war.

Just when people were nervously watching or preparing to meet the coming storm, a Kunlun slave drove a demonic carriage pulled by two arrow-tailed dragons into the Imperial Capital Supervision Department.

When Charlotte collapsed in a pool of blood and Mo Ya sat in the office, everything was calm.

It was as calm as Donald, who was now sitting in the first seat below Edward, was looking at Mo Ya's face at this moment.

It seemed that this woman was late for such an important meeting, and she didn't laugh at all, and he didn't mind at all.

Even Donald needs someone to forbear, who can afford to mess with him?

At least none of you here want to be a second Charlotte.

Seeing Mo Ya sitting down in her seat, Edward looked at her calmly and asked, "Is there any news?"

Edward's questioning made everyone's eyes focus on Mo Ya's face.

That is the most important concern of everyone at this moment, except for the war - the safety of Princess Elethea!

Mo Ya bowed gracefully and said, "The Knight Alex of the Templar Order has already picked up Princess Elethia and is on his way back to the city of Lulian Muni at the moment. I have ordered the Overseer to use the Empty Demon Ship in the Lulian branch to send Princess Eretia back as soon as she arrives in Muni City. ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the news. ,

It's just that everyone understands that the concern for Princess Eretia here is different for everyone.

"How is she?" said Edward, waving his hand lightly, motioning for Mo Ya to talk to him without being so formal.

Mo Ya smiled and said, "The princess was not harmed in any way, and the royal guards protected her well. ”

"When they come back, give them a good reward. Edward smiled as he was relieved.

"But Your Majesty, the casualties of the royal guards this time are quite severe. Mo Ya said slowly, this was just the beginning of the next conversation, and her mind was sorting out the next words.

"Oh?" Edward sat up straight.

"Of the eight royal knights, three were killed in battle. Hugo, the flag leader of the squad, was seriously wounded, 220 royal non-commissioned officers, 113 killed, 22 missing, and 18 wounded. Mo Ya said: "At the same time, there was also Baron Brian of Borabel City. ”

Edward's eyes narrowed, Donald was expressionless, and the nobles exchanged their heads.

"Also, according to the reports that came back earlier, the Knights Templar clashed with the Royal Guards when they were rescuing the Princess. Mo Ya looked at Donald, who had a pair of slender eyes and a gloomy face, and her eyes flashed: "The brave knight of the Royal Guard, Punk, was seriously injured, three royal non-commissioned officers and a civilian were killed, and another civilian was missing. ”

Mo Ya's voice, like magic, made the entire council hall suddenly silent.

The Knights Templar and the Royal Guard clash!

A brave knight was seriously wounded, and three royal non-commissioned officers were killed, which was the most severe incident in the Empire and the Holy Sect in more than ten years.

Everyone's heartbeat began to accelerate.

It's just that everyone doesn't understand what is going on with the two civilians in Mo Ya's mouth. Who cares about two civilians, but since Mo Ya specifically brought it up, there must be a reason!

"Tell me, what's going on?" Edward's voice was filled with irrepressible anger.

Mo Ya opened the note in her hand and read the report on what happened in front of her as it was.

With Mo Ya's report, the nobles' eyes were getting wider and wider, and even the stone-like Donald had a slight change in the rhythm of his breathing.

Rescued the princess in the hunting area.

With the Templar George and the monk Moon shamefully abandoning the civilians, they were the first to storm the enemy line, protect the civilians, and lead the civilians out of danger.

At the pass of the nameless mountain peak, he was enshrined by the princess and was the guardian knight of the princess's future.

In the end, he was forced by Alex to jump off the cliff.

When Meya finished his report and read out the identities of the wounded knight and the deceased, all the nobles remembered the familiar and unfamiliar name of the sixteen-year-old blue-eyed handyman of the Borabel Lord's Mansion.
