The conversation between father and son from the Arest Ice Plain had now turned into a colorful story in the mouth of this clever favorite courtier, and the Emperor who sat on it couldn't help but smile on his face. And when www.biquge.info the story was finished, the man sitting on the throne immediately smiled and said this to his favored retainers.

"Madding, this story is very good. It's really good, although it's ridiculous and ridiculous. But it was a very interesting story, and the whimsy of this child reminded me of my past from time to time. When I was just a prince, I had the same interesting fantasies as many like-minded guys. ”

"It is my honor to be able to reminisce about the good past, Your Majesty. Your most heartfelt subordinates will make it a lifelong honor. As soon as the Emperor said this, he immediately responded to the Emperor in the most flattering posture - even the stupid posture of his head and chest on the floor, and only pouting his hips. And this kind of performance of his naturally made the king above laugh.

"You always know how to please me, Madding. I'm lucky to have such a caring courtier as you, so let me think about what I should reward you?"

The Emperor rubbed his bearded chin in contemplation. Soon, he got an idea, and then said to Madwin with a little excitement.

"Well, I remember Count Olduk of the Northern Province saying that they had carved out a new town near the forest, and that they were using it as a center of trade and exchange between the center of the empire and the northern provinces. Since it is a new town, it naturally has not yet had time to assign it a suitable owner. I declare, then, that in the name of Emperor Westfort Driii the Viscount, and that this new town in the Northern Province shall be your fief, hereditary. Let me think about what to call it? From now on, you're Viscount Midwinter, Madding. ”

"Your grace has left me with no gratitude. My Majesty, I am willing to serve you with all that I have, and I will always prostrate at your feet, and be faithful to you, even until the day when I shed my last drop of blood. ”

Madding's voice is pompous and contrived, and anyone with eyes who sees his performance will have a stiff and false feeling. But the Emperor didn't think so, he looked at the snot and tears on his face, just laughed and waved his hand, and replied with a mocking expression.

"I don't need you to shed my blood yet, my dear madding. You're just a powerless guy who can't even pick up a sword. If I need you to keep me safe, isn't this empire on the verge of collapse and destruction?"

"My Honorable Majesty, I definitely didn't mean that!"

Mai Dingwen hurriedly argued. But there was no need for him to justify, the emperor naturally knew what he meant.

"I know, I know. My dear Maddingwen. You just have some problems with expression. Okay, I'm a little tired, so you can step down. Also, tell my dear brother that he may be free to come to me. I'd love to know what interesting shows he's been preparing lately. ”

"Your will!" hunched over and pouted his hips. Mai Dingwen withdrew from the emperor's palace in a very ridiculous gesture. And when he disappeared into the palace, a woman's voice suddenly came from the corridor on the side of the throne.

"Don't you think it's a bit outrageous to give the title of a viscount to such a person?"

As soon as he heard this voice, the emperor's face immediately became gloomy, and he lowered his voice and asked slowly. When he said the last sentence, his voice suddenly rose up, making the entire palace seem to tremble.

"Why, I don't even have the right to canonize a viscount?

"Not really!" the woman in the hallway remained calm, and her majestic and graceful voice carried a sense of unwavering intent. "It's just that I want to tell you that there are still many capable young talents in the Empire who can be promoted, and even among the Praetorian Guards around you who are loyal to protect you, there are many people who are more suitable for this position. Their bravery and loyalty, in your eyes, are they not as good as a good man?"

"Hey, that's a nice thing to say, my Queen. It's just that I want to know, can these people you are talking about please me?" shaking the wine glass in his hand, watching the blood-red liquid ripple in it, the Emperor's tone was a little more playful and playful. "Don't say it's them, even you, can you make me happier than Maddinwen? Don't forget, I am the emperor of the empire, and only I have the right to canonize nobles and domains. I don't care how much the guys behind you have received, or what you have done behind my back. I'm just going to give me the status of a nobleman, and what can you do to me?"

"Your Majesty!" If the angry words of the previous emperor could still make the woman whom he called the empress quietly refute, then after the emperor changed his attitude, she could no longer maintain her semblance of calm. "You are the supreme person in this empire, the most noble being, not some scoundrel who drinks too much in a tavern. Your every move represents the image and majesty of this empire. ”

"So what?" said the Emperor with a smile of disdain carved into his face. And looking at his appearance, the woman hidden in the shadows of the corridor took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in her heart and said to him.

"At the very least, you should pay attention to yourself, or the whole royal family. Canonizing a eunuch as a nobleman, even if you don't feel ashamed, I will feel disgraced. ”

"Haha, that's pretty good. I'd like to see who thinks I've disgraced the Empire by doing this. Who dared to question the will of the great Reinhardt. Come to think of it, it will be a very interesting performance. ”

At this, the king, who was seated on the throne, stood up suddenly, laughed a little maniacally, and walked towards the corridor on the other side of the throne with the bottle in his hand. From beginning to end, he didn't glance at the queen who was on the other side, who nominally belonged to him.

And looking at the Emperor of the Empire who disappeared into her eyes like this, the woman in the shadows couldn't help but increase the strength of her fingers. She wore claws on her fingers made of precious metal, which protected her slender fingers and made her movements dangerous enough. Even this royal palace, which dates back to the age of the elves and is known for its solidity and luxury, could not resist the wrath in this woman's heart. Sharp scratches appeared on the stone wall of the corridor, and such a shocking sight made the maids beside the queen quickly lower their heads, for fear of angering their hostess.

However, her worries were clearly unfounded. Because as the queen of the empire, she would not be able to do such a low-level thing. At least for now, she wouldn't do such a low-level thing. She just walked briskly towards her dormitory, and when she was about to return to her dormitory, she suddenly stopped her steps and said to the maid beside her, who had been following her with her head down.

"Now, go and call Duke Claude to me, and say that the mourning family has something to ask him. ”

"But, Queen. It's already night, and if you summon your ministers late at night, will it affect your reputation if others hear you? ”

Despite the fear in her heart, the maid dutifully said this to her mistress.

Hearing the maid's persuasion, the queen immediately snorted coldly, which made the loyal maid shudder.

"Isn't it okay for the mourning family to even ask their own brother some questions? If anyone has any doubts about this, let them come and talk to the mourning family in person. The mourning family wants to see who has the courage to dare to speak to the Philippine court. ”

"Yes, Your Highness the Queen, I will go and invite the Duke over. ”

The trembling maiden trotted almost all the way to convey the orders of the most noble woman in the entire empire. And after the maid left, the queen looked at the depths of the palace where the emperor was located with a vicious expression, and cursed in a low voice.

"Incompetent waste, you won't be crazy for long. ”

Ignore the treacherous court secrets. At this moment, Viscount Mai Dingwen, who had just finished telling the story to the emperor, had already left the palace in his carriage and returned to his mansion. As soon as he reached the door of the mansion, he saw an unusually luxurious carriage.

The wide body made of pure white oak is covered with delicate carvings and is decorated with sumptuous solid gold ornaments to give it a sense of grandeur. The delicate roof is surrounded by a crystal chandelier that emits a soft white glow, which is bright enough to illuminate the road around the carriage as bright as the sun. The tall steel four-wheeled middle is a complex mechanical structure, which is expensive and can also give the passenger the most comfortable and stable enjoyment. And the six majestic and tall war horses with white bodies made this carriage a few more notches out of thin air.

Such a carriage was comparable to the entire net worth of a modest merchant, and its price had reached the level of luxury. But this outward nobility does not fully reveal its nobility, and its real nobility is the coat of arms engraved on both sides of the carriage.

The majestic and mighty mountain griffon, the noble coat of arms that belongs only to the imperial family. If you dare to wear this coat of arms on your carriage, you must be one of the important members of the royal family. And the only one who can appear here at this time is the current Prince of the Empire, His Royal Highness Klavet.

It's just that after guessing the identity of the person who came, the new viscount, who had always had a smile on his face, suddenly changed his face. Seeing his appearance, the butler who had been waiting in front of the mansion hurriedly greeted him.

"I'm sorry, sir. His Royal Highness is so chaotic that we can't stop him at all. ”

Directly slapped him to the ground, Mai Dingwen almost gritted his teeth and said word by word.

"The next time you let him in like that, I don't know anything. Then don't want your little life. ”

With that, he strode towards the depths of his inner house. And looking at his back, a deep resentment appeared on the face of the butler who was knocked to the ground.

"Damn eunuch, you won't be complacent for long. ”
