Chapter 371: Getting Married? (Part II)

The number of congratulatory gifts given by the three nobles was enormous. Don't underestimate 200 stallions, that's the equivalent of giving Rex tens of thousands of thoroughbreds.

Sephiroth was satisfied, and that was what he wanted. Let the nobles continue to send supplies to Rex, but no one will come. It doesn't matter if Rex lays down the clouds, anyway, the Yunliu Empire is a country composed of a group of bastards.

Others don't know the situation of the Yunliu Empire, but Sephiroth deliberately sent people to lurk in, and he has his internal response in the palace. He knew very well the absurdity of the Yunliu Emperor, and the extravagance of the Yunliu nobles made him, a Yunliu person, feel that it was a shame for mankind.

Originally, he was going to sacrifice Rex, but now it seems that it is better to sacrifice in another way.

There is also a reason why the nobles are enthusiastically supporting the Kushui County, everyone's interests are in Garudan, Rex will definitely not go west again, let her go to fight the Yunliu people, you can pay the money, as long as you let Garulan out.

After all, Rex's identity is sensitive, and everyone can't blatantly attack Rex's land. Last time, Antos suffered a big loss, and was reprimanded by the emperor, and the House of Commons did not speak for him, so everyone understood. Even if Rex is no longer favored, he still has the same surname as Sephiroth.

The stumbling block behind can attack Rex directly, which is disrespectful to the royal family.

Hundreds of nobles, large and small, were the richest and most powerful people in Qin Yin. Even if everyone gives out 100,000 gold coins, it can be supported by tens of millions of gold coins. What's more, they are not producing gold coins, but military supplies that are in short supply.

It was already difficult to buy these things in large quantities in Qin Yin, and Sephiroth's support this time was also real. For any other person, the most he can do is give Rex a large number of gold coins.

The Holy Rock City side is busy raising congratulatory gifts for Rex, Yunliu is busy increasing troops, and the Skochenian Empire is discussing how to deal with this political marriage.

The emperor of the Scochenian Empire also recruited his close ministers.

Last time, His Majesty Donny, the Emperor of Scochenia, made a lot of money on the three empires, and this time, when it comes to the Bitterwater Kingdom and the Metatrin Kingdom, he has to consider whether to show friendship or continue to be neutral.

The ministers close to His Majesty Donny are basically military generals. He summoned the ministers and directly raised his own questions.

"Ladies and gentlemen, what posture should we maintain when the Bitterwater Kingdom and the Metatrin Kingdom marry?" His Majesty Donnie stroked his beard with his fingers, observing his ministers with his tiny eyes.

"Your Majesty, regardless of them, we are mercenaries, of course we have a neutral attitude. The Tangulas still want to drag us into the war, and we refuse to do so?"

"Yes, Your Majesty. It doesn't matter what the contradictions between them do, we do our own thing, who can dare to point fingers. Since they are married, they should give a similar gift according to the etiquette between the nations. ”

"But it's not good to be too stingy!" Donnie smiled.

The ministers looked at each other, and suddenly a guy had an idea and understood Donnie's thoughts, so he said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the Kushui County is now short of soldiers, and we will let a 10,000-person mercenary group go to congratulate in the name of sending congratulatory gifts, then Rex will definitely hire this mercenary group, and we don't need to spend more money to make her appreciate it." ”

"Hahaha!" His Majesty Donnie, who had advanced to the Golden Sword Saint, smiled vulgarly like a market vendor, and he was very satisfied that he, a minister close to him, had come up with such a good idea.

Anyway, according to the laws of the empire, this kind of country is that he can mobilize regular large mercenary groups for a small amount of money. This mercenary group will not complain. Anyway, I went to Kushui County to take over business, and everyone knows it. The important thing is that this mercenary group is going to fight the Yunliu people, not to fight the Tangulas people, so the Tangulas Empire that is close at hand will not be angry.

Kill three birds with one stone, no matter how light his gift is, Rex will not say half a sarcastic word. I sent a large mercenary group.

"Very well, but which mercenary group to send?"

"The Red Tiger Mercenary Regiment, their magicians have been abducted by the Metatrin anyway. A minister gloated.

"No, in that case, Rex won't appreciate it. Downey flatly refused.

Moreover, although the Red Tiger Mercenary Regiment is registered in Phoenix, it is actually a local corps of the Principality of the Rhine, and this matter has to be informed to the Grand Duke of the Rhine, which is regarded as a personal debt. With Donnie's stinginess, this kind of favor would never be wanted.

"Your Majesty, didn't the Dragon Slayer Mercenary Group recruit two new eighth-level mages? Advanced to the eighth-level mercenary group, let them go, anyway, this group of guys is unruly, if they stay in the empire, they will have to give them a city to garrison, and they will die of trouble. ”

"Well, that's a good point. His Majesty Donnie applauded. According to the laws of Scochenia, if a mercenary group reaches level seven, it has the right to govern a large city, and as a station, it can collect all kinds of taxes.

The Dragon Slayer Mercenary Group was originally a sixth-level mercenary group, and it has always been difficult to manage. The regimental commander has a stubborn personality and gets along very poorly with the local nobles. Now that he has advanced to level eight, Donnie must not be willing to give him a certain city. Just throw it out, maybe all die in Rex's place.

"Your Majesty, if the Dragon Slayer Mercenary Regiment leaves, their location ......"

"Don't move for the time being, after all, there are still two eighth-level magicians who are their people, and you will not have a good time if you annoy the magicians. Donnie was finally half sober and didn't think about depriving the Dragon Slayer Mercenary Corps of its original location.

His Majesty Downey, who was a dime a dime, and the ministers continued to discuss the details, what to give congratulatory gifts, how to get the dragon slayer mercenary group out, and so on. The most turbulent and lively part of the Scochenian Empire is, of course, the Kingdom of Metatrin.

Upon receiving the news of Sarin's success, Sika immediately issued the first national decree of the kingdom in his capacity as regent, covering all the people above and below. Commoners received a one-year tax exemption, and peasants received three and a half years of tax. The aristocrats were smiling, and they got more.

Not to mention the nobles of Saleen's cronies in Metatrin City, each of the Phoenix nobles that Saleen subdued gained the leadership of their own city, although it was not a fief, but it was the right to administer it indefinitely. These nobles. For the time being, it is used as a municipal official, and 20% of the tax can be withheld.

The nobles of Phoenix were not happy about this, they were happy that Saleen and Rex were married, then their status was different, Rex was surnamed Grykos, the daughter of the old emperor. These Phoenix people are the most recognizable to Rex, and Saleen's alliance with Rex at that time is also the main reason why they took refuge in Rex.

Now Saleen is suddenly going to marry Rex again, these Phoenix nobles. Only then did he completely regard the Kingdom of Metatrin as his own country. Territory or something, Saleen will definitely gradually distribute it back, this is something that does not need to be judged.

After the news spread in the Kingdom of Metatrine, it was also affected by the southern part of Phoenix. In the area beyond the control of the Qin Yin people, millions of people poured into the Metatrin Kingdom, and some nobles who were still hesitant also joined in.

The population of the Metatrin Kingdom exceeded 10 million in one fell swoop, and it finally had the appearance of a country.

With a population of 10 million, the pressure of conscription is much less, and the kingdom of Sareen can finally develop steadily.

The Kingdom of Metatrin was in a festive atmosphere, and in the temple, Sika lay in Sarin's room, staring at the ceiling in a daze. Neris stood cautiously and did not speak.

"Nellis, do you think Saleen will change his mind?" Schika asked, asking the little demon.

"Sister Schika, the master will definitely not change his mind, I know how you feel. ”

"What do you know about a demon!"

Neris thought to herself, then you still ask me. But she didn't say that, but said: "Rex also likes her master, and she won't embarrass her master, she is a magician, and she wants something different from you." ”

"Yes, she's a magician, that's why I want Saleen to marry her. Schika's eyes lit up, and then they darkened a little.

"Sister Sika, it doesn't matter if you are a magician or not, the master likes you because you are the master's most precious lover. Neris recalls the depictions of love in human books, to Sika.

"Precious?"

"Of course, the most precious thing is when the master met me. You're right next to the master. I like you too, so if Rex dares to bully you, I'm going to eat her. ”

"Huh. Shika laughed, and although Neris was not telling the truth, she guessed that she dared to do so.

"Sister Schika, you're just uncomfortable, haven't you been egging him on until he made a decision. When the master is leaving, he will make you the regent, for what?"

"Why do you say?"

"This country is needed by the master's teacher, and under the temple, what is prepared is a dimensional teleportation array. After that, you will be a family with the master's teacher. ”

Sika was stunned, knowing that the demon's description was inaccurate, but Saleen must have thought so.

What Salin did must have been extremely dangerous, he kept the kingdom to himself, not to let himself take care of the land, but to let his teacher take care of himself!

Thinking of this, Sika rubbed his nose, wiped away the inexplicable liquid, and said, "This guy Salin has a conscience. Nellis, what did he tell you when he left?"

"It's not for me to protect you, if I don't do it well, the master won't want me in the future. Neris said aggrievedly.

"Protect me?haha, we Caucasian priests, even if we have children, we have the same fighting power......" Sika said this, suddenly stopped, blushing a little. She remembered that when she was with Saleen, this little devil always had to peep around.

"Sister Schika, master's child, is very important, you must not do it. Are you afraid of the dark?" asked Nellis a strange question.

"Don't be afraid. Sika said with a big grin: "I can see thousands of meters in the dark, and the eyes of the priests are better than those of demonic beasts." Why do you ask this?"
