"Your Royal Highness, the noble and beautiful Princess Lydia, I wish you to bring lasting happiness and well-being to all the people of Murasen. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

Sarian's expression, though explicit and alluding to the meaning of unifying Mulasson, sounded very useful to the ambitious eldest princess.

"You are really a good talker, dear Lord of New Mark. I'm just a woman with little knowledge, and I'll have to rely on your strength more in the future. Plus, the toga on your chest is so beautiful!"

While the guests and hosts were talking amicably, the guards informed the emissary of the kingdom of Castia that they had asked for an audience, and when Salian bowed and took leave, the eldest princess signaled that the duke did not have to leave, and she showed an attitude of complete trust in the new Duke of Mark, who had helped her.

Then came a handsome man and a woman in fancy costumes, led by a handsome and dashing man, dressed in a loose oriental robe, with a striking belt studded with precious stones and gold accessories. The three beautiful girls behind him were dressed in dancer costumes, and two of them were rare elves from Mullasen, which made Her Royal Highness Lydia, who had a strong faith and conservative personality, blush.

The young man who walked to the middle of the meeting room smiled and took a few things from the girl behind him, then saluted on one knee and said to Lydia.

"Your Royal Highness, Your Royal Highness, the villain has been commissioned by King Gonzalo II of Castia to bring with you a marriage proposal and a token from His Majesty the King. ā€

The Prime Minister, Marquis Flores, pretended to be surprised and said, "Oh, His Majesty's marriage proposal, hurry up!"

Immediately, a guard stepped forward and handed the thing to the marquis, and the prime minister turned to the eldest princess and said with a smile after taking a serious look.

"Your Royal Highness the Eldest Princess, I absolutely support your marriage to Gonzalo II, and His Majesty Gonzalo II is also very sincere, and even sent the treasure 'Seagod's Tears', which has been passed down from generation to generation in their family, as an engagement token. ā€

The so-called "Tears of the Sea Gods" are actually a necklace that is the dowry of Gonzalo II's great-grandmother, a sea princess, who is said to possess some magical powers.

The eldest princess replied shyly: "Oh, it is up to my royal brother Carlos I to decide whether or not to marry. ā€

Salian knew that the only reason why Carlos I, the current king of Toledo, had not abdicated was that the Unionists had not yet purged the remnants of Bellanini's throne, and the king himself had effectively lost any real power.

The Duke of New Mark said to His Royal Highness Lydia at the right time: "I have heard that Gonzalo II is a rare prince, and if Her Royal Highness the eldest princess can tie the knot with His Majesty the King, it will definitely become a beautiful conversation on the mainland." ā€

Lydia replied as she played with the "Tears of the Poseidon" she had taken from the Marquis.

"Marquis Flores, please reward my envoys with a hundred double-faced pistors, they must have worked hard all the way. ā€

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, the villain and the others have retired first. ā€

After the smiling prince left the palace, Lydia deliberately left Salian behind to have lunch with her, the eldest princess has completely regarded the Duke of New Mark as her close ally, and she has just been given power and needs such a powerful support as Salian. After the meal, they continued to talk about some topics of concern in the secret room of the palace.

"Your Excellency, I am so grateful to you this time, that you sent your men to help me at such great risk!

"Hehe, it's an honor for him to serve such a beautiful princess, and besides, it's just a small injury, and it's not in the way. ā€

"That's good, is the black dragon who killed the throne last also your subordinate?"

"Haha, how could it be, it was just a friend who was invited at a high price. ā€

"Ah, it turns out that you have a good relationship with the Black Dragons, which is really enviable!By the way, in addition to the gold coins that Miss Lantony promised you and His Highness Makminus, I would like to give you something. ā€

It seems that this eldest princess not only has the rumored peerless beauty, but her political acumen is indeed first-class, and it is absolutely cost-effective to have the opportunity to win over an important nobleman of the Divine Grace Empire. In any case, at that time, the Divine Grace Empire was still a powerful country, and the strength of a great prince could be compared to that of some small kingdoms.

Since the host was so hospitable, Salian replied unceremoniously.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness! Although he is far away in the Divine Grace Empire, he has also heard a little about the rotten life of Bellanini's throne, he not only occupies many women of good families, but also likes to collect all kinds of antiques, in addition to the 'sacred scriptures of theology', he is also said to have a shield from the ancient imperial era. ā€

"Your Excellency, do you mean the shield used by the first hero in the history of the Tutonians?!"

"Her Royal Highness Lydia is also very knowledgeable about ancient history! It is precisely like this, on the ninth day of the ninth month of the ninth year of the advent calendar, Herman, the tribal leader of the Tutonians, for the first time in history, annihilated the three elite legions of the ancient empire in the forest on the north bank of the Limin River, Herman is regarded as the first hero in the history of our country, and the spear and shield he used at that time were also regarded as sacred relics, but unfortunately the spear was lost in the later war, and only his shield was lost to the treasury of the throne of Bellani. ā€

"Your Excellency Duke, you will go to the Marquis of Flores later, originally we planned to arrange for men to go to the cardinal's mansion in the city in the afternoon to count his ill-gotten gains, you can go with you, not only the shield, but take whatever you want!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!

Unfortunately, despite the fact that the Marquis's subordinates had dug the mansion into the ground, they did not find what Salian wanted.

Returning to the palace, Salian received a cordial greeting from Princess Lydia, and the depressed Salian was surprised to find that Her Royal Highness was in a very happy mood, her tone was cheerful, her face was relaxed, and the Duke also noticed that Her Royal Highness had brought the "Tears of the Sea God" on her white and smooth neck, and that the slender shoulders and collarbones were a perfect combination.

Under the influence of the princess's beauty, Salian's mood gradually improved.

"Dear Princess Highness, the 'Tears of the Sea God' is truly a treasure tailored for you!"

"Haha, the Marquis and I have just visited Brother Wang, and His Majesty has agreed to Gonzalo II's proposal to me, so I am wearing this necklace. ā€

"And," said the princess in a low voice, in Salian's ear, "Brother Wang will abdicate next month due to health reasons, and this burden has finally been entrusted to me!"

Salian understood the real reason why Her Highness was so happy, and he replied softly.

"On behalf of the Divine Grace Empire, congratulations, Your Majesty!

At this moment the guards informed the arrival of the Countess Don Loney.

The future queen was surprised and said to Salian, "Your Excellency, it seems that someone has sent us a certificate of nomination!"

"I wonder what she can offer? ā€

Salian stood aside as a guest secretary and participated in the meeting again. Unexpectedly, on the first day after the mission was completed, his wish came true, and he met two of the most famous beauties in the Kingdom of Toledo.

Just when the Duke of New Mark felt that he was lucky, he saw a graceful figure slowly walk in, the Countess Don Loni was dressed in a magnificent court dress, her tall and plump figure was unobstructed, and her beauty was a contrived beauty, very different from the beauty that Salian had seen before. Although Estfaria and Lorana Ise are also very good at dressing themselves, they are not as deliberate as the one in front of them, this is a kind of beauty designed to please men, so it immediately attracts Salian's hot gaze.

The Countess came in and saw the handsome and mighty Salian beside the princess, but she did not know the Duke of New Mark, so after saluting Lydia, she asked, "Your Highness the eldest princess, I have some secrets to tell you. She looked at her and asked if she could say it directly.

Lydia glanced at Salian, then said to the Countess.

"But it doesn't matter, this is my newly appointed Count of St. Valentine, Sallian von Hohensterlingen, who is also the new Duke of Mark of the Divine Grace Empire. ā€

Hearing this, Salian couldn't help but be surprised even though he was always calm, although it was not uncommon for one person to receive the title of two countries, but for those who met on the first day, he could have this kind of reward, so that Salian was also completely impressed, and he decided to support the queen of Toledo 100% in the future, and he could now understand the reason why a strong woman like Lantoni would also throw himself into Lydia.

"Yes, Your Highness the Eldest Princess, in fact, Bellani Throne hid some treasures in my villa during his lifetime, and I have come today to dedicate them all to His Highness. ā€

"Oh, I am very satisfied that you have this patriotism, and I know that you are also a miserable person who has been humiliated by the throne, so I promise that you will not accept anyone's persecution in the future!"

"Ah, thank you, Your Highness the Eldest Princess, and by the way, Count St. Valentine!"

Salion, who had recovered from the shock just now, asked the countess.

"Madam, no one has ever touched the treasures of the throne, has he?"

"Of course, Your Excellency. All of his men left after the news of the throne's death, and I am the only one who knows the secret!" the countess's naturally seductive gaze and voice made Salian very comfortable, even if she did not match the otherworldly beauty of Princess Lydia or Miss Pear.

"Your Highness, can you allow the minister to receive this treasure now! "Salian has now begun to advise Lydia.

"Well, you have a good point, Countess Don Lonny, please take the Count of St. Valentine to your villa! ā€

When Sarian and the Countess arrived at her small building, it was indeed guarded by only one of the Countess's personal maids, and in a basement in the backyard of the villa, the late Cardinal's true treasure house appeared, and what excited Salian the most was that Herman's shield was also among them, and this small bronze shield was carved with a simple pattern of the god of thunder, which was the god of the ancient Tutonian people.

And the Countess Don Lony took Count Saint Valentine to her bedroom in order to pass the boredom of the Count of St. Valentine's possession of the treasure. After a successful event, Salian returned to Her Royal Highness Lydia, and after a short meeting, the eldest princess announced the appointment of Countess Don Loni as her lady-in-waiting.

Becoming an attendant also means that the countess is regarded as a confidant by the eldest princess, and I don't know if there is a recommendation from Salian.

After saying goodbye to the princess, Salian returned to the small hotel, and according to the principle of keeping a low profile, he would not enter the palace again, and left quietly, taking only the Hermann's shield as a souvenir.

"Dad, how did you get such an old shield back after you were busy all day? Not only is it worn, I don't feel any magic fluctuations on it, it's just an ordinary shield!"

"My little darling, this shield of Herman has been blessed by the god of thunder and is said to have great powers, so I want to take it back and study it. ā€
