Chapter Seventy-Six: Cooperation

The music is high, and the figures in the temple are fluttering. Richly dressed male and female aristocrats danced together in the wide hall, brightly lit, reflecting the lonely night outside the window.

Anna, the first princess of Navarre, was holding a red wine glass at this moment, looking at the nobles in the hall, and a satisfied smile flowed from the corner of her mouth.

This is a victory! a victory that could change the whole situation in Navarre.

At the order of the old king of Navarre, Reso had to leave the royal capital of Garcia with his soldiers and head towards the border. In this way, without the control of the Thunder Lion Legion outside the city, the entire Garcia was controlled by the Basque family.

In this hall, the most important nobles of the entire Garcia gathered, and it can be said that they were here, which was tantamount to recognizing the status of the crown prince of the seventh prince Sijia in disguise.

It was late at night, and it was cold outside in the depths of winter. Heavy snow drifted down and soon covered the entire city. For the nobles of this temple, the heavy snow was just a sight to enjoy during the afternoon relaxation. And for civilians and even slaves, the white snow is like the howl of death, and once the snow passes, I don't know how many lives will be taken away?

The whole Garcia, whether it is the lower city where the commoners live, or the middle city where the commercial use, or even the upper city where the nobles live, has closed its doors at this moment, and only the long street is empty, lonely and there is no trace of people.

Slaves are wrapped in their own broken quilts, commoners lie on their beds and carry out the eternal propositions of mankind, and nobles enjoy the warmth and light brought by the charcoal fire in their own houses.

The snow was getting thicker and thicker, the wind was whistling, and there was not a single sound of stepping on the ground.

A group of armored soldiers began to speed down the streets, and then, a second team, a third team... More and more soldiers appeared on the long street, like beasts in the dark, quietly baring their fangs.

The air was cold, but not as cold as the expressions on the faces of his soldiers. They were all extremely elite soldiers, and even in this bad weather, their eyes were extraordinarily determined. Other than that, there is no expression.

In fact, in the midst of the heavy snow, their bare faces could not make superfluous expressions. In the darkness of the night, all the soldiers remembered only one command in their hearts.

Conquer the palace of Garcia, the great beast that stands above the cities.

The dance is still going on. The lights were waving and the music was high, making the nobles inside forget the ice and snow outside, the emptiness and darkness outside.

Syllable!

With a loud bang, the closed door of the temple was kicked open. As the fierce cold wind blew into the temple, all the nobles looked out of the door in panic.

No one is a fool, let alone these great nobles who have been in the officialdom for a long time? The gate that blocked the frost weighed hundreds of catties, and it could be pushed open in an instant, which only showed one point!

The other party is not good!

A group of soldiers streamed in from outside the gate. Their bodies were stained with snow and bruised from the cold, and they could be said to be a group of beggars compared to the nobles who maintained a good image in the temple.

However, it was this group of beggars, who looked embarrassed, that frightened Navarre's princess, Anna.

She walked up to the crowd, raised her voice to the fullest, and shouted angrily, "Who are you? How dare you break into my palace?"

No one answered Anna's hysterical howls. In addition to the silence in the hall, there was still silence, which made Anna feel that this group of people were all deaf.

......

The temple was empty and dark, with only a lone bed.

The old king was lying on his big bed, his throat was bitter, he wanted to drink water, and he shook the bell in front of the window, but the waiter did not come.

Lao Wang's throat became more and more dry, and the bell in his hand shook more and more urgently.

The door was slowly opened, and Lao Wang raised his head with some difficulty. The light outside the door shone in, and only a dark figure walked in.

The comer handed the water cup in his hand to Lao Wang and wanted to give him water to drink. Lao Wang's mouth was already half-open, but when he saw the face of the comer, he struggled fiercely, trying to get rid of the comer.

"Father, in your eyes, am I no different from that kind of father-killing rebel son?"

Rayso held the cup in his hand, and there was a hint of loneliness in his eyes.

"Reso, why are you here?

Lao Wang's eyes were full of horror, and his words were full of anger and concern.

Resso did not answer his father, put down the cup in his hand, and began to pace around the room.

"Father, you were once the youngest legendary powerhouse in the region, and you have brought the declining Navarre to glory as the second largest power in the south after Capet and Castile. But then? What have you done? Addicted to alcohol, and absurd in government, you have listened to the woman, and you have given all your important positions to the unworthy men of the Sparks family. ”

Rayso walked from the side of the old king to the opposite of the old king, he looked at the old old king, and continued: "The country is decaying day by day, and your body is withering day by day. Look at what you look like now, a legendary powerhouse, but you can't even pour a glass of water. The enemy nations on all sides of the kingdom are ready to attack Navarre, but the royal capital is full of drunken flatterers. So far, the Toledo family has come here, and the fragile ones are not even able to cope with a coup d'Γ©tat. ”

"Rebel... Unfilial son... Cough.. Ahem..."

roaring one after another, Lao Wang wanted to express the anger in his heart, but what he got was a constant cough.

"I won't kill you, because now you don't deserve to be charged with a father's murder!"

With that, Resso left the room without looking back.

At the end of the corridor, a black-robed man waited for Reso.

"Duke Badr, you're so punctual!"

Rayso looked at Will in front of him and teased.

"As a businessman, punctuality is a necessary quality. ”

There was still a hint of sadness on Resso's face, but Will had no intention of paying attention to his personal affairs.

"Very good! I'm sure we'll have a great time working together. ”

Rayso smiled and said.

"Yes!" Will nodded, "but before we can do that, we have to settle some troubles. ”

"You mean Sancho?"

"I have just received news that the Sancho Brotherhood has rescued Siga. ”

Rayso frowned. He knew very well that although Sijia was a gentleman, his identity was crucial. In the royal capital, there are still a large number of troops loyal to the old king. If Sijia were to be coerced by Sancho, the consequences would be unpredictable.

"Don't worry, since I want to cooperate with you, I naturally have to show some sincerity first. ”

Will smiled, a self-righteous smile.

"Why are you smiling so treacherously?"
