The mages of the Kingdom of Lorraine were crippled and basically unable to invade, the situation in the south of the Varu Empire temporarily stabilized, and Leo's mission was successfully completed. Leo, who had been away from his territory for months www.biquge.info, now misses his own territory immensely, his castle and Miss Winnie of Silverstone.

"Your Excellency William, Commander McShouner, now that the situation has been decided, I should also return to the imperial capital to resume my life, and the southern side will be left to the two of you. Leo was a little reluctant to say to Archduke William and Captain McShouner.

As the lord of the three southern provinces, Archduke William led the residents of the three provinces to actively restore the old prosperity with the prestige of the Wagner family, while the Grizzly Legion needed to continue to defend the south, at least until the crippled Southern Legion was rebuilt, so only Leo himself returned to the imperial capital.

"Leo, brother! All thanks to you, without you, the South still doesn't know what it would be like! I thank you on behalf of hundreds of thousands of people in the three southern provinces!" William hugged Leo vigorously to show his gratitude. If it weren't for Leo, maybe he would still be wandering around with the remnants of his army and homeless.

Commander McShoughner's Legion had to say goodbye to Leo because he was stationed in the south, and along the way, his view of Leo changed from a despised new emperor's favorite to a respectable commander and a qualified military nobleman.

"Count Leo, no, I'm afraid that after the reward is down, I will have to change my name to Marquis Leo or Your Excellency the Duke, I wish you a smooth journey, and I hope that there will be a chance to fight side by side in the future!" Captain McShoughner patted Leo's arm vigorously, showing the bold and uninhibited style of a warrior.

"I believe we will have a chance to meet again in the future! Take care of the two of you, I will return to the imperial capital with the soldiers under my command in the afternoon, goodbye!" Leo said goodbye to the two again.

If nothing else, Leo's fiefdom is in northern Xinjiang, and I am afraid it will be difficult to return to the three southern provinces, and it will be difficult for him and William to meet again in the future. However, the world is unpredictable, and the three of them are reluctant to imagine that they will meet again in a short time.

Rushing back to the imperial capital from the south, this road Leo had walked several times and was extremely familiar. Although the Wei soldiers were heavily armoured, they were trained to travel long distances, but the Teutonic knights who had lost their mounts suffered along the way. The knights who have always relied on war horses are rushing with their legs, and they are all wearing heavy knight armor, this road is a painful ordeal for them, but there is no way, as a plain farming country, the Varu Empire not only lacks magicians, but even war horses are in short supply, even if Leo is not short of money now, but he can't make up so many excellent war horses for a while.

With the Teutonic knights dragging their feet, the original half-month journey, the group walked for more than 20 days before arriving at the imperial capital. After entering the imperial capital, Li Ao first asked Feng Xifan to lead everyone back to his mansion in the imperial capital to rest, and went to the palace alone to resume his life.

Walking on the Imperial Capital Avenue outside the palace, Leo obviously felt that the spirit of the people in the imperial capital has undergone earth-shaking changes, and the faces of the people who came and went along the way were full of smiles, and the greetings between each other were also very cordial.

When Leo revealed his identity and entered the palace, the new Emperor Gavin XIII received a report from his chamberlain. Knowing that Leo had returned, Gavin XIII was naturally extremely happy, and at that moment he even pushed the government affairs file that was being handled, and strode towards the outside of the main hall.

Gavin XIII's attention to Leo made several ministers who were assisting Gavin XIII in handling government affairs stunned, and they made silent eye contact with each other, and they had a new understanding of Leo's position in the emperor's heart.

"Greeting His Majesty the Emperor, the minister's trip to the south to quell the rebellion was fortunate not to be dishonored, and it was a great success, and he returned to the imperial capital to resume his life. Leo saw Gavin XIII waiting for him at the gate of the Great Hall from a distance, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

"Leo, it's good to come back, it's good to come back!" Gavin XIII didn't care about anything else, he pulled Leo up, didn't care about the difference between etiquette and inferiority, and didn't care what the ministers next to him thought, hugged Leo warmly, and then took Leo's hand and entered the main hall.

Gavin XIII couldn't wait to hear Leo tell him more about his experience in the South, how he defeated the Southern Army, how he surrendered William, how he rebelled against the city of Ryan, how he pacified the three southern provinces, and how he defeated the Lorraine Wizards.

In an ordinary family, Gavin XIII, who was only sixteen years old, was still a child and could enjoy the favor of his parents without worry. As an emperor, confined to the palace, Gavin XIII spent his days dealing with government affairs and meeting with noble ministers, and did not even have time to practice magic meditation, let alone personal entertainment. Now that Leo has finally returned, and Gavin XIII has been Raymond again, he just wants to pester Leo and ask him to talk about his experience well, so that he can have a space to substitute for imagination.

Gavin XIII's naïve and straightforward approach was about to scare those ministers stupidly, they felt that they had overestimated Leo, but they still didn't expect Gavin XIII's attitude towards Leo to be so kind, this is simply not to treat a courtier, it is not an exaggeration to say that Leo is regarded as an elder brother.

His Majesty the Emperor took Leo as his brother, which was like a fantasy that made several ministers believe in their eyes and ears, and what was even more excessive was that Leo did not feel flattered at all, and he talked happily with Gavin XIII, which once again subverted the perception of the ministers.

Listening to Leo's careful description of the various events of his trip to the south, speaking of the ambush in the Pearl Valley, Gavin XIII nervously clenched his sleeves with both hands; when it came to the battle by the stone bridge, Leo explained and said that William would surrender, and Gavin XIII couldn't help but applaud; when it came to secretly sending people to infiltrate the city of Ryan to rebel against the nobles in the city and cut off the back route of the rebels, even those ministers couldn't help but nod secretly and praised Leo for his wisdom and bravery; and when it came to relying on the prestige of the Grand Duke of the South, pacifying the south also made everyone re-realize the deep-rooted prestige of the Wagner family in the south; and finally the battle with the magician regiment, Gavin XIII was even more thrilled to hear it。 (To be continued.) )
