Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Dawn of the Meihe Plain

Although it is secretly controlled by the Dawning Church, on the surface, the Principality of Meihe is not much different from before. www.biquge.info But the undercurrent in it is indeed beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Three days ago, under the leadership of Pete, Sails and the others followed him to the territory of the Buturus family.

The Buturus family is arguably one of the oldest families in the Principality of the Plum River, and their ancestors followed the first Grand Duke of the Principality of the Plum River to establish the Principality of the Principality of the Plum River. It can be said that the strength of the Buturus family is second only to the Meihe family in the Meihe principality.

If anyone is most reluctant to see the Principality of Meihe under the control of the Church of Dawn, it is the big family headed by the Buturus family who bear the brunt. The **** system implemented by the Dawning Holy See will greatly weaken the authority of the aristocratic class.

The current patriarch of the Buturus family is an old title warrior, but due to his talent, his strength is indeed not high among the title warriors, especially the age limit, the whole body is not full of qi and blood, and his strength is limited.

In the past few days, Pete has secretly met with some emissaries of the big family, all of whom have received the news of Pete's return and come to inquire about Pete's reputation.

Sayles, however, was not idle, and after instructing Pete on some things, he left Nivea, Hammer, and Sidon behind, and left the House of Butulus with Zithai, where he was gone.

......

Two strangers came to a small town on the plain of the Meihe River, among them the blonde man, with a calm face and a smile on his face, and on his not surprising face, a pair of eyes were as bright as stars in the night sky. Another black-haired man, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, but with a lazy look, it made people look extremely awkward.

"I said Sayles, we've been out here for two days, and I want to say that I will directly ask Pete for the military power, and I am sixty percent sure that the Dawning Church will be driven out of Meihe City within ten days. ”

Hearing Qi Tai complaining here, Sayles smiled faintly: "Your so-called sixty percent has too many variables. Not to mention whether the Dawning Church has top-notch combat forces such as the Twilight Warriors here, just the private soldiers of those big families and those garrisons. You know, this land has been peaceful for too long. ”

"In the Buturus family, I don't know if you have noticed, those soldiers feel like scholars, there is no soldier at all, I even doubt that they have seen blood. ”

Qi Tai tilted his head and thought for a while, and said affirmatively: "At least when I was born, I must have seen it...... But whether you can remember it now is not certain. ”

Hearing Zitai say this, Sayles smiled dumbly and continued: "I have never commanded an army, and I have never actually seen an army fight against each other. But I know that in the world of mercenaries, the lives of newcomers are the least valuable, and ten new mercenaries can be left with half of them after a year, which is already very good. ”

Qi Tai nodded and said, "That's right, I'm taking it for granted." Looks like you've got a good job for everyone. But what we're doing here, I don't think there's anything here that could be a threat to the Church of the Dawn. ”

Sayles didn't say a word, and continued to walk slowly down the street. Seeing Sails like this, Zitai touched his nose and followed with a wry smile.

"Qi Tai, when did you say that the Dawning Church began to be deployed in the Principality of Meihe. Listening to the narration of Pete and others, in one day, from the violent death of the old duke, to the succession of the second son, to the control of Meihe City, and then to the control of the entire principality. When you think about it, the strength of the Dawning Church is truly terrifying. ”

Qi Tai pursed his lips and said disdainfully, "In my opinion, these methods are too low-level. As you said, it has been peaceful for far too long, from the Grand Duke to the common people, who have not experienced war for generations, and who have hardly been vigilant. Anyone who has a little brains will definitely not give the Dawning Church a chance to take advantage of it. ”

"If you want me to run this matter, find a puppet with inheritance qualifications, this is no problem, and then let this puppet marry with the major families. Even if you can't marry all of them, you have to try to let the remaining big family daughters secretly tie the knot, even if it won't be all, but there will definitely be some of the big family's interests tied to the puppet. Then give the old duke a chronic poison, it must be chronic, it will only make his body worse day by day, and he must not die suddenly, so that even a fool can see that there is a problem. ”

"Through poisoning, the old duke is gradually unable to govern, no matter what the old duke's wishes are, the puppet who has already gained the approval of the big family's power, other heirs cannot compete with it. After taking power, on the surface, you should treat them with kindness and preferential treatment, arrange them to some positions that are generous but easy to make mistakes, and then find reasons to discourage them. Ordinary people are very fond of this kind of bridge, so that the puppet has solved the trouble and gained fame. In the end, I will slowly start to weaken the power of the major families, but from the beginning to the end, I will hide behind the scenes. ”

"Slap, slap, slap" A round of applause came from nearby.

"Wonderful, and very feasibility, listening to you say this, it is indeed more complete and more secretive than what I planned, but, according to what you do, what if the puppet is strong and the tail is too big?"

Who was this man? He had heard Zitai say it from so far away, and his tone was like that of the Church of Dawn. Looking at the person who suddenly appeared, Sayles's eyes froze, and there was a faint murderous intent on his body.

"No, no, no, Captain Sayles, I have no ill intentions in this trip, and even I have a common goal with you. Also, this dark-haired Mr. Qitai, you haven't answered me yet, what if the puppet tail doesn't fall off. ”

Different from Sayles's strict preparation, in the dark, Qi Tai felt that the fate line of himself and Sails was entangled with the person in front of him, and regardless of whether he was an enemy or a friend in the future, there was absolutely no hostility at the moment.

Qi Tai smiled slightly and said: "The puppet with a big tail is secretly killed, and it is completely possible to blame the other heirs, and claim to be the revenge of the other heirs." There are so many children, who are younger, and the kind of heir who is not big or small behind the family is on the throne. ”

Qi Tai secretly told Sails what he thought about the person in front of him, and Sails was suspicious, but out of trust in Qi Tai, he finally left the hilt of the sword with his hand and said coldly: "The Dawning Church's ? Since we were able to find the two of us, it was definitely not to eavesdrop on our two brothers, so we should say something quickly. ”

"Church of the Dawn, Diablo. ”
