"...... so," said Empress Pars, whose face was neither sad nor joyful, and her eyes were filled with indifference, as if the sad news she had heard had nothing to do with her, "my dearest brother, did he die of heart problems, and not of someone else?"

Vito couldn't help but look up at the gloomy Emperor Orlando VI next to him, didn't this old thing say that he was paralyzed and locked up in the depths of the harem, how did he run out, and it didn't seem to be a big problem. Of course, he could not have asked these words, nor did he show curiosity and strangeness about the appearance of Emperor Orlando VI. He nodded hurriedly, "Yes, Your Majesty, I invited some very prestigious alchemists in the Imperial Capital Research Institute to check the cause of His Highness's death, and this is the conclusion they have unanimously reached. ”

"They?", there seemed to be a hazy expression on Empress Pars's face, which made people not look very real, "There are several alchemists involved in the investigation, right?"

Vito said yes again, and Empress Pars smiled slightly, turning her head to look at her father, the former Emperor, Orlando VI, "I said, I didn't want to harm anyone, my original idea was to trap him, but I didn't expect him to go first, these have nothing to do with me, father." ”

Orlando VI's rapidly heaving chest paraphrases the waves in his heart, and the ghost is on the horse to believe that these things have nothing to do with you. Kant was fine when he was on Pilagos's side, and as soon as he returned to the imperial capital, he immediately went to see the god of light, his old man, to say that Empress Pars did not do anything, the old emperor dared to cut off his head and bet that Empress Pars had instructed such a murder!

Yes, Chi Guoguo's murder, how many of the nobles in the entire imperial capital believed that Prince Kant would die a natural death?

No!

Not a single one!

The reason why they did not dare to say it was because they were afraid that the Empress of Pars would take the opportunity to kill them all. Do you know what the nobles are secretly saying about Empress Pars now, saying that she is the greatest tyrant in the history of the Empire, even dating back to the founding of the Holy Empire, there is no one. She longed to cut off the heads of all the nobles and put them in her garden to make a landscape, so that no one dared to show the slightest flaw to this madman.

After all, she did it, no matter how the old emperor once exonerated her, in the end she still followed the old path that all emperors have taken, to be a lonely emperor.

Perhaps this is the price that all emperors must pay while enjoying power!

He waved his hand a little tiredly, opened his eyes and looked at Empress Pars, "I see, it was just an accident, no one has done anything in this matter, but I hope that your other brothers and sisters can have a good body, at least they shouldn't just leave this world." ”

"Of course, I also have this wish, I want each of my siblings to live long enough to experience more joy in life. In the face of the accusation of hiding Feng in her father's words, Empress Pars did not blindly retreat, but instead stepped forward, "But you should know that I am only an emperor, I am not a god, I can't give them power and wealth and at the same time be able to give them a healthy body, I can't even control my own health, let alone other people." It can only be said that it is my wish that everyone is healthy and happy, but sometimes the wish must be subordinated to reality, you say?"

Emperor Orlando VI sighed, stood up with the handrail, turned around and walked towards the harem, "I'm tired, don't come to me if you have anything, don't look for me if you have something." ”

Looking at the suddenly old and decadent back of Emperor Orlando VI, Empress Pars just smiled, this is the sorrow of the emperor. He could only watch his daughter kill his other children, but there was nothing he could do to stop it from happening. But he was also proud, because Pars was his successor, his daughter, and a wise emperor.

She was walking a tightrope, which Orlando VI knew very well, and walking the tightrope might be able to walk from one cliff to the other as quickly as possible, but there was also a huge risk in the process, and if you were not careful, you would fall and lose your bones. But she succeeded, even though she almost fell off several times during the tightrope walk, but she finally succeeded.

She gathered the privileges of a large number of nobles and rallied them around the royal family, something that he, including previous emperors, had not done. In the history of Orlando's empire, the only people who did this were Emperor Orlando I, and Emperor Orlando II in the second half of his life.

In that case, what could he, an old man who had already been angry and had come down from the throne, say anything more? If Pars had done what he could not do himself, then he should shut up and not be a nasty old man.

After Emperor Orlando VI had left, Empress Pars nodded in satisfaction and stood up on the armrest. The long floor-length skirt and exquisite costumes set off her incomparable nobility and temperament. She slowly walked down the steps, and the growing prestige made Vito bow her head, the current Empress Pars was very imposing, which also had something to do with her recent situation.

"You're doing a great job and I'm satisfied. Vito waved his hand again and again, deciding that all this had nothing to do with him, and that it was all the idea of Her Majesty the Empress.

In the past, he could still have some resistance to the Empress Pars, but recently, the pressure on him has become more and more intense, like the Emperor Orlando V who attended a banquet when he was ignorant when he was a child. At that time, the old emperor was not far from death, and he could barely even walk, so he could only sit on a luxurious chariot and be carried by others.

But even so, his eyes were still terrifying, even if the first glance bred fear and shadows in his young heart.

The current Empress Pars is almost the same, she has achieved real power, the nobles of the North have almost chosen to gamble their lives, and the nobles of the south and east have seen the power of the royal family, and they have also chosen to turn themselves into well-behaved pets, so to speak, she has achieved the extent that the empire rotates in her hands. Despite her unimpressive appearance, no one dared to look at her directly.

Except for Wren.

It was a bit of a headache to think of Empress Wrenpals, this damn guy never respected and loved her like a real emperor, he would only keep causing her trouble, and she also knew very well that Wren seemed to have some signs that something was not quite right, but that guy never left her with any handle. He's like a fish that doesn't let his hand go, and when you think you're grabbing him, he wagged his tail hard and slipped out of your hand in the blink of an eye.

After arriving in the Byron Empire, there has not been even the slightest news back, and the victory pass was once again occupied by the Byronic people, Byron increased the intensity of the landing, and the originally clear battle situation became confusing again.

It would be better if he would have died in the Byronic Empire.

Empress Pars thought that it would be the best news if he could die in battle, and that she would remove the last internal obstacle and achieve supreme authority, and that the era would be named after her.

What a wonderful name for the time of Pars Orlando, she sneered unconsciously, and her good mood was also ruined, and she snorted lightly and walked directly through the main hall into the apse, leaving Vito alone in a daze.

Wren, who is "missed" by Empress Pars all the time, is cleaning up the battlefield.

Not long ago, the team he led was ...... In fact, there were only three thousand, and the others had already returned to Tiebi Pass, and Wren didn't need so many people to follow, which is why he was able to successfully hide in the territory of the Byron Empire - he didn't have so many people, but the enemy didn't know.

It is possible that a person hiding in a mountain forest may never be found, but 10,000 people hiding in a mountain forest, as long as they are not blind, can basically find these people. So Wren wouldn't be stupid enough to enter the hinterland of the Byronic Empire with so many cumbersome and potentially exposed targets, and that would be no different from looking for death.

Not long ago, they had run out of supplies with them, but there was a predominantly orc village nearby.

Orcs and orcs are two very different species, the latter may have a purer bloodline, while the former is something completely crossed. Their bodies often show features of their paternal or maternal lineage, such as the two horns on their heads or the webbing of their fingers and toes. Orcs are born far superior to humans, but they do not have the unlimited potential of humans and orcs, and their potential is cleansed by the hybridization and mixing of different bloodlines.

Therefore, the status of the half-orcs is very awkward in the Byronic Empire, and except for the half-dragons, other orc races are not willing to accept any half-orcs into their group. They hate orcs in the same way that the desi hate orcs, forming a whole chain of contempt.

Although the half-orcs with a large group were not treated positively, they also had their own advantages, at least when they were young, they were still strong, and they had the advantage of hybridization, and they became the foundation of this society, just like the cornerstone of the commoners. A large number of menial jobs are performed by orcs, who are the least paid, the most labor-intensive, and the most dangerous types of work.

The Byron Empire advertises fairness and justice every day, but this is just a ghost talking nonsense to the ghosts, and the ghosts don't believe it.

Of course, compared to the class contradictions and conflicts in the Orlando Empire, the situation here is still very peaceful.

They sacked a half-orc village, but did not provide Wren with enough supplies, the half-orcs are poor, how can the poor accumulate a lot of supplies?

Moreover, in this world, neither orcs, half-orcs, nor desi have the habit of storing food.

So Wren decided to raid another small town not far away where orcs and humans mixed inhabited, and try to get enough supplies and information.
