Lin Ye seemed to calmly ride in the carriage and drove towards the court, which was in the same direction as when he went to the ball before, but it was a different road. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

No matter how fiercely the princes of the royal capital fight, there is no doubt about one thing, that is, the emperor is the supreme existence.

As long as His Majesty the Emperor is alive, their struggle can only be in the shadows and cannot be put on the surface.

In the past few days, Lin Ye has also received some information, and learned that the troops of several provinces near the royal capital have been frequently mobilized.

Moreover, it was not the local garrisons that were mobilized, but the border troops who quietly rushed back from all over the country.

The cutting-edge generals, known as the four fierce generals of the empire, are back!

The idiots all know why they led their army back to the royal capital secretly, but stopped in the surrounding provinces.

This is also enough to prove that His Majesty the Emperor's health has reached a very deteriorating point.

Then the question is only why this emperor should be summoned to the royal capital since he is not long in life.

Let him marry Wendy and complete the alliance between the Blackfire and the Roses, or help her fight for the throne?

How is this possible, he can't let his sons go and support a niece, and there is one thing that Lin Ye cares about very much.

Under normal circumstances, Raymond should be in his prime, a heroic king who founded a country by force, but actually suffered from a serious illness in the prime of life?

Connect all the threads, and then put yourself in the shoes of a person with authority who is about to reach the end of his life, what is he afraid of?

Only death.

"Lord Duke, please come here. When the carriage stopped, the sound of the iron lion was heard.

His voice was as heavy as steel, and Lin Ye stepped out of the carriage, and none of his cronies around him were there.

Whether it's Lancelot or Van or Iga blowing snow.

He stood alone in front of the empty palace gate.

This is another entrance to the court, which is different from the exquisite and elegant residence of the previous Lady of Thorns.

There was an air of solemnity and murder.

Steel and iron form the main theme of this place, and a large number of elite soldiers in armor gather here.

"Who is that...... Lord Wallis?" Lin Ye just saw a group of soldiers pouring out of the palace.

Wallis, the court governor he had met earlier in the Far East, was escorted out.

When Wallis saw Lin Ye, his pupils suddenly dilated, and he wanted to say something.

But his mouth was gagged, and he only made a "whine" sound.

Lin Ye's heart sank suddenly, Wallis was actually arrested?

"I don't know what crime Lord Wallis has committed, how can he be arrested?" Lin Ye asked softly.

has reached this point, and he doesn't have so many taboos.

And it's also very strange that the soldiers gathered here are not from the Royal Knights under the command of Ranmarok.

The soldiers here have two kinds of armor, one is golden, and it is the Iron Lion Guard, which is directly under His Majesty the Emperor.

The other was a silver glow, although Lin Ye had not seen them beforehand, but these equipment could not be more recognizable.

He is a member of the Knights of Light.

If Lin Ye guessed correctly, he gathered troops not far away, and the tall and heroic officer in silver armor was the leader of the Knights of Light.

Austin.

To summon the army of the Church to such an important place, instead of the Royal Knights, whose loyalty is unquestionable?

"Lord Duke, I advise you to leave the affairs of the court alone, those are not your concern. ”

Iron Lion's attitude was indifferent, he waved his hand, and a group of soldiers entered the palace with Lin Ye.

It was not so much to recruit him into the palace as to escort him in.

Missionaries from many churches frequented the palace, including the noble cardinal.

It seemed that the power of the Church had suddenly loomed over the entire royal palace, firmly occupying the place.

The sky is a lingering shadow.

"It would be nice if the territory could be a little closer. Lin Ye said something inexplicable.

Only he knew what he meant, and if the territory was close enough, he would have enough time to send his army over.

Although the population of the Far East is not comparable to that of inland towns, it is still able to raise an army of more than 3,000 men in a short period of time in the event of war.

And whether it is equipment, training, and most importantly, cohesion, it is not comparable to the army in the interior.

How can an army that fights for its own interests, not for the interests of its lords, not be strong in combat?

Moreover, he can also pay for mercenaries.

With complete confidence in raising the strength to 5000 people!

In this way, there is room for resistance, and it will not be as passive as it is now.

"Cardinal, it's been brought. ”

After making his way through the walls and passages, the Iron Lion came to a halt in front of a cold, large lonely fortress.

This lonely fortress is the core of the entire royal capital, and it is also the tallest building.

Looking at it from a distance, it gives people a feeling of coldness and penetration.

It's like a blood-stained watchtower, which makes no sense in peacetime.

What's more, this is also the residence of His Majesty the Emperor and the place where the throne is located!

"Well, Duke Link, come with me. ”

Cardinals are an important rank in the Church and belong to a form similar to that of members of the Council within the Church.

Cardinals are often cardinals themselves, but cardinals do not necessarily become cardinals.

The cardinal occupies an important position even among the cardinals.

This is evident in the courteous attitude of the cardinals towards him.

The entire lonely castle is guarded by church people, and this eerie atmosphere is even more terrifying.

And just now the Iron Lion used the word "to".

This made it difficult for Lin Ye not to think about his own safety.

"Lord Duke seems to be very nervous?" the cardinal asked.

His voice was a little hoarse, but his face looked very ruddy.

I'm probably in my sixties, but I'm like a lady who is very well-maintained.

Not particularly old.

"His Majesty the Emperor is mighty, making Duke Ben sweat. ”

Lin Ye frankly admitted that he had reached this point, and his fate was probably no longer in his own hands.

The whole lonely castle has a strange atmosphere from the inside out.

He suddenly remembered Cecia's words earlier, and the dark Holy Court, which had been silent for hundreds of years, suddenly appeared.

All this is definitely not a coincidence.

"Hehe, Lord Duke, come with me, don't let Your Majesty wait for a long time, Your Majesty is looking forward to you, but you have been looking forward to it for ten years. ”

The cardinal let out a shrill and hoarse laugh like a night owl.

Lin Ye couldn't help but chuckle in his heart.

He already had a hunch that once he stepped through the cold gate of the Lonely Castle, it would be difficult for him to get out alive.

No, he must do something, he must not sit still!(To be continued.) )
