"Your Excellency Marshal's gaze is a little short-sighted. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
The Prime Minister Rossbill made no secret of his mockery of Miridrian when he said this.
However, the latter, the heart of the Imperial Marshal Miridrian did not have the strength to respond as he had done before. He instinctively sensed that there was something evil and not so good behind the words of the prime minister.
As a result, Miridian spun his brain around in the hope of figuring out what the conspiracy was within the best of his ability. However, in doing so, he understood what the prime minister's taunt meant.
"Short-sighted", that is, not seeing, and then not seeing and not knowing.
Miridri thought reassuringly that the Prime Minister must have obtained some information or information that he did not know, and planned something based on that information. Then, the prime minister's plan required the mobilization of at least 100,000 troops.
At the thought of this, anger surged in Miridelhi's peace of mind.
The 100,000-strong army planned this kind of dispatch without prior communication with the Imperial Marshal, who was the most responsible! Without considering the respect for the individual and Miridrian, who had the status of the Imperial Marshal, and the fact that the army was being transferred alone, not to mention including the officers in the decision-making circle, should at least be regarded as advisers to ask for opinions, right?
However, whether it is the basics of being a person or the thoroughness of doing things, this prime minister does not have any.
It's really, it's ridiculous, it's ridiculous!
In this way, Miridrian was a little unbearable, and his anger was about to erupt, but at this time, a basin of "cold water" was poured on his head, which calmed him down.
And it was the voice of Empress Shirley that poured over him.
"Don't worry, this is what I will announce next, and it is natural that Qing does not know. The Prime Minister, the Secretary and the Marshal are all important ministers like pillars of the empire, so let's do less to play tricks on each other. If you can't get along, I'll be very troubled. ”
"Yes!" the prime minister immediately turned to face the empress and bent down, bowing his head, "Your Majesty has taught you a lesson, and Your Majesty is here to review it." ”
"Hmm. Empress Shirley nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Miriderian, "Your Excellency, even if it is for my sake, can you forgive the Prime Minister for his rudeness?"
"Don't dare to be!" Miridrian also bowed his head and saluted, "Your Excellency the Prime Minister has a lot of opportunities, and it is understandable that there is a slight gaffe, and His Majesty has not taken it to heart. ”
"Yes!" said Empress Shirley innocently, like a lily, "worthy of being a marshal commanding hundreds of thousands of troops, Qing's heart is really broad." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty. ”
"So, let's get down to business. ”
Saying this, Empress Shirley withdrew her gaze, no longer confined to Miridrian alone, but opened her vision and took the Holy Maiden Irene and the High Priest Soracio into her eyes together.
She pondered for a moment, and then spoke aloud: "Zhuqing, now the people of our empire are living in dire straits, famine, poverty, and moral degradation. Why is this so?"
Hearing this, Miridrian stole a glance at the prime minister.
Why is this happening? It's not because this guy and the noble lords he represents.
It's just that this is not destined to be what the little empress wants to say now, because the prime minister will never educate her like this.
"This is because our empire is short of resources!"
And so it was...... Wait!
Miridrian couldn't help but look in shock, and at this moment, as a soldier, he thought of something terrible.
"So what should I do? Empress Shirley continued, her expression became painful, "What is going to be said next is a very bad, evil thing. I know this very well. However, for the sake of the people of the Empire, I am ready to bear this great sin. Therefore, I declare once again that I have decided to wage a war of plunder, to seize everything needed for the people of the empire with the sword of the empire!"
This was just as Miridian had expected. However......
"Please wait a moment, Your Majesty!" he exclaimed, "the Northern Continent is all the territory of my Empire, and all the people of the Empire live on it. In this way, where should we plunder? Could it be that the soldiers want to conquer the habitat of the monsters? It is true that as long as the monsters are expelled, the actual usable territory of our empire can be expanded several times in one go, but it is only ......"
"What are you talking about, Lord Marshal?" interrupted Miridian with a look of inexplicable expression, "I am a child, but I can understand the fact that no matter how brave a warrior is, no matter how large an army is, it is impossible to defeat those monsters. ”
In that case, what about "plunder"?
Miridrian was in complete confusion.
"So, Your Majesty, who are we going to wage war against?"
"South. At that moment, the archpriest Soracius muttered thoughtfully, and although the voice was small, it reached Miridrian's ears. The latter immediately cast a stunned look at him.
"Your Excellency, what do you mean by South?"
"That's literally, Marshal. "And that's why the Prime Minister says you're short-sighted." ”
"What the hell are you trying to say?"
"Your Excellency Marshal, you just said that 'the Northern Continent is all the territory of my empire', right? So why do you say 'North Continent' instead of 'Continent'?"
Hearing this, Miridian couldn't help but be stunned. Because, this question is really meaningless to the extreme.
Why do you say "North Continent"? Isn't it just because this is the "North Continent"?
Thinking like this, Marshal Miridrian's face gradually showed a look of surprise. He remembered something he had taken for granted, but now he noticed something that was particularly shocking.
The territory of the empire is called the "Northern Continent" because, it is not the whole of the continent. Relative to the north, there is naturally the south, that is, the southern continent. It is the place where the gods exiled the apostolists in mythological history, and since ancient times, the gods have separated it from the northern continent by means of an enchantment.
If you look south on a clear day, you can see the rainbow wall that is the boundary, and it still shines today.
"It seems that the marshal has thought of it. Solasius smiled when he noticed the change in Miridrian's expression.
At the same time, Miridrian hurriedly turned his head to look at the little empress on the throne.
"Your Majesty, is Your Majesty really going to order us to march into the Southern Continent!"
"Exactly. Empress Shirley nodded in affirmation.
"But, let's not talk about other things, what about the Rainbow Wall? As long as it still exists, not to mention attacking the south, it is impossible to even climb over the 'Divine Realm Mountain'. ”
"Don't worry about that. Prime Minister Rossbill smiled smugly again, and then looked at the Holy Maiden of the Angel Sect, "Lord Elanu, can you please explain?"
"Absolutely. After all, that's probably why we were called. First responded to the prime minister, and then the holy daughter Ilenu looked at Marshal Miridrian, "Your Excellency, what you are going to say next is still confidential for the time being, and I hope you will not spread it until you get permission." ”
"What's the matter?"
"That was three years ago, and I was praying when I suddenly heard the voice of heaven, which was undoubtedly the voice of an angel. She told me that the rainbow wall would disappear in three years. ”
"What! However, the three years at that time were not ......"
"It's about a month away. The answer to Miridrian was Rothbill, the chancellor of the Empire, "This is the revelation that the angels have given to us faithful believers, and there can be no mistake." Therefore, during this time, you need to be fully prepared for war, and then march into the southern continent at the same time as the rainbow wall disappears. ”
Stunned, staring at the smug with hazy eyes, as if he had seen the prime minister with a rich land and countless gold and silver, Miridrian looked at the little empress again.
"Your Majesty?"
"This is my command. Empress Shirley said with a determined expression.
So, Miridrian no longer said anything, but knelt down on one knee and bowed his head, saying, "Your Majesty obeys the order." ”
