Join...... Marriage?

Williams was stunned on the spot, and before he could react, Roland jumped off the table and said loudly: "If it is Anna who marries Edward, I fully agree with the proposal of marriage!"

Marquis Gorlon's gaze pierced Roland's turquoise eyes like lightning, but she glared back mercilessly. Goron lowered his eyelids and said in a deep voice, "This matter ......"

"In ten days, I will return to the Centaur Hills. You must make a decision within ten days and have an engagement ceremony to inform the Holy See and the lords of Gambis. Sylvia interrupted the Marquis of Goron and said, "Please think carefully. I'll take my leave. With that, she nodded at Roland and left the room with Caterina.

The Marquis of Goron sat upright in his chair, his eyes closed in contemplation. Roland ran his fingers around his hair in boredom. Williams kept his head down, pacing back and forth.

After a long time, Williams stopped, looked up and said, "My mind is very confused right now, you might as well say what you think." I'll start with that. He paused and said, "Putting aside the source of the formula and the Pope's factors for the time being, let's talk about the Golden Recovery Elixir itself. ”

"Transcendent powers have attracting properties, including transcendent potions. The attraction properties of the Golden Recovery Elixir are definitely not inferior to the bloodline of the Golden Knight. I can imagine that once Sylvia openly uses the Golden Recovery Potion, the heirs of the small family will have to rush to the Centaur Hills with all their might. Especially those apprentice knights who don't have the confidence to step into the bronze rank, as long as they have the golden recovery potion, their bloodline purity can reach the level of senior knights, and their descendants have a great chance of naturally awakening their fighting qi talent. Because they can find a companion in the Centaur Hills who are also veteran knights. ”

"The small families follow the Golden Knight in order to improve the bloodline of their descendants, and the Golden Recovery Elixir can increase their own strength and bloodline purity. The House of York has silver knights, land, titles, and god knight guardians, and the longer they monopolize the gold potion, the smaller the gap in strength with us, and even surpass us. ”

"Actually, the secret refining potion of the Kite Castle is not important to Sylvia. Williams looked at the Marquis of Goron and sighed heavily, "We can't live without the Golden Recovery Elixir. ”

Marquis Golon waved his hand and said, "Don't think about the relationship between Margaret and me. If necessary, I would personally convince her mother to let Margaret relinquish the position of queen. My concern is that the political implications of the marriage outweigh the benefits of the Golden Recovery Elixir. ”

The Augustian family marries the Lords of Power every few generations. This is conducive to strengthening the influence of the Kite Castle on the extended family. But the House of York is not among them, or the royal family cannot easily marry the family of the Divine Knights. It is okay for the York family to marry August's side daughter, but if the noble daughter of the York family ascends to the throne of the queen, it is tantamount to Auguste bowing his noble head to the York family in the eyes of the great nobles. Now that the royal family has already conceded defeat, what reason do the other big families have to continue to besiege the Centaur Hills? The marriage of the big families and the surrender of the small families will become the norm for the York family, and it will be difficult for the Kite Castle to curb Sylvia's political influence.

Williams and the Marquis of Grond were in a dilemma, but Roland said indifferently: "Sylvia has Victor, so she is not happy to deal with external forces." She wants a York family that is like an arm, and she wants to elevate the mainstream bloodline of the York family so that her legacy can last for a long time. You're so worried!"

Marquis Goron thought for a moment and nodded slowly, agreeing with Roland's opinion.

Williams coughed dryly and asked, "In that case, why did Sylvia marry us? and why was she sure that we would give in?" Regarding the first question, I think Sylvia must have our support to have more golden potions. As you saw just now, Sylvia stared at Becker digesting the potion, and destroying the crystal bottle containing the potion in front of us. This shows that she is afraid of the extraordinary skills of the pharmacists of the Kite Castle. It also meant that she knew that the formula for the Golden Elixir could not be kept secret. ”

"Such an important transcendent potion, as long as it is taken out and used, it is impossible to keep it secret. It's only a matter of time before the recipe is revealed. The Marquis of Goron nodded, stared at Roland again, and asked in a deep voice: "You say, what hole cards does Sylvia have that can force us to take Angelina as queen and not hesitate to offend the Wellington family?"

Roland was furious, jumped up and pointed at the Marquis of Goron's nose, and scolded: "Stinky old man, Margaret's personality is as strong as her mother! But don't forget, Edward is not the Duke of Wellington. He is the direct blood of Auguste, the son of Lane, the lord of Gambis, and the brother of the most beautiful, noble, and intelligent princess of all time. Why are you manipulating his marriage? Margaret wants to twist Edward's will, and the stubborn and arrogant nature of the lovely Edward will only change Margaret's mind. It is impossible for two people to be happily married, do you want to cut off their knightly path?"

"The marriage of the king and queen is an obligation. When Edward reached the Silver Rank, the two of them had the right to pursue their own love and happiness. The Marquis of Goron asked with a cold expression, "How do you know that Edward will not fall in love with Margaret?"

Roland's momentum was discharged, his eyes rolled, he stretched, and said, "I'm so sleepy, I'm going to sleep." She yawned and walked out, turned her head before going out and said, "Seeing how hard you think, I'll give you a hint time, and the Borui people." ”

With a snap, Roland closed the door and walked briskly out of the corridor.

"Time...... The Kingdom of Borui?"

Williams said it several times, his eyes gradually brightened, and he suddenly said, "I understand." Teacher, we need to buy time. We are referring to Auguste, Sylvia, the Pope and the kingdom of Borui. ”

"The Sarsanians are under the pressure of the eastern wilderness. The Seuss are up to fend off the gnoll kingdom in the Twilight Forest. They all rely on the power of the Knights of Radiance. But the Borui Kingdom has no problems with this. In fact, Seuss and Borui still have a competitive relationship. Especially on the issue of medicinal materials, the Suth Kingdom used the power of the Radiant Knights to suppress the Borui Kingdom. The relationship between the five major families of Borui and the Knights of Radiance is very cold. There was no reason for them to cooperate with the Knights of Radiance to suppress Sophia's Chamber of Commerce. Unless, they have to!"

Marquis Goron frowned and said, "You mean, Sylvia's Golden Recovery Elixir comes from the Borui Kingdom?"

"Yes!" Williams laughed, "The Borui have been trying to modify the recipes for the Refining Potion and the Recovery Potion, hoping to break free from the shackles of the Seuss Kingdom and train more knights and apprentice knights. Replacing the medicinal herbs of the Dusk Forest with other herbs has become the main research direction of Borui pharmacist. My guess is that they inadvertently invented the Gold Recovery Potion, but it had to be made of the Arret Plateau. ”

Marquis Goron pondered for a moment, then bowed his head and said, "This makes sense." Sophia dominated the barbarian trade, but the Sassan Empire and the Kingdom of Dordor controlled the trade routes. Without their permission, no medicinal herbs could be transported to the Borui Kingdom. Sophia is facing the problem of annihilation, and the Borui people can only choose the Knights of Radiance. Borui formed the Nanfeng Chamber of Commerce not only to curry favor with the Radiant Knights, but also to replace Sophia's caravan and open up the five families' own trade routes. ”

"The Knights of Radiance don't know about the Golden Recovery Potion yet. Williams said, "The Boreites offended Sophia, and she cut off the barbarian trade. If the Radiant Knights had known in advance that the materials for the gold potion came from the Arret Plateau, they would have asked Sophia for help, even at the expense of the Borees. This is a bad thing for the Borui Kingdom. ”

"However, the Golden Recovery Potion will definitely not be hidden from Archbishop Oreg!"

Williams paused and continued, "Assuming that the Radiant Knights receive the Golden Recovery Elixir, and the knights of the kingdoms surrender to the Sassang Empire, the Church's strategy of expanding north will inevitably prevail over its strategy of expanding south. Patriarch Friedes is gaining momentum and is likely to take full control of the Pontifical Council of Cardinals. ”

"Not possibly, for sure!"

Marquis Goron shook his head and sighed, "Clement cannot accept that the Knight of Radiance has full control over the voice of the church, but he also cannot deviate from the principle of unity of the clergy on this issue. So, he secretly sent the recipe to Sylvia, and the key to it was Sophia. ”

"Weakening Sophia's influence on the barbarians was a plan developed by the Pope himself. Sophia didn't last long. The Sassan Empire and the Kingdom of Dordor would gradually cut off her trade routes within fifteen years. However, Bishop Oreg of Borui suddenly obtained the recipe for the Golden Recovery Potion. Clement could only hope that the lord of Nantuo would be able to reserve enough medicinal materials to keep the family heirs before Sophia's influence was weakened, so that the Nantuo strategy would not die young. ”

"Sure enough, it's a matter of time...... "Marquis of Goron said gloomily, "for now, Sylvia and Sophia are the closest...... The same goes for Victor. ”

"We have our strengths. Williams smiled confidently, "It is impossible for the Knights of Radiance to monopolize the medicinal herbs of the Arret Plateau, which will lead to an all-out war. But their control over the distribution of medicinal materials is enough for us to worry about. Sylvia intends to use Sophia's influence on the barbarians to gain the right to distribute medicinal herbs. On this point, the interests of the southern lords coincided. ”

"Angelina is not only the noble daughter of the York family, she is also Sophia's only student. Sylvia proposed marriage in order to keep Sophia's title. Only then will Sophia be motivated to continue the barbarian trade. As soon as we hand over the recipe for the potion of refinement, Sylvia will have Sofia help Gambis build a new chamber of commerce and gain a share of the barbarians' trade. Sophia has this ability. In addition, due to the relationship of the future queen, the share of medicinal herbs occupied by the York family was second only to the Kite Castle, and the other lords had nothing to say. ”

"Of course, it would be better for us for Sofia to stay at Blinauer. The Marquis of Kite Fort was, after all, the wife of the future Sword Master. ”

Williams laughed and said proudly: Roland is indeed the noblest, most beautiful, and wisest princess. ”

"The most unreliable eldest princess. The Marquis of Goron shook his head with a wry smile and said, "We can only marry the House of York. Wellington and the Four Princes are up to me. You make a trip to Cedar Town and ask Chief Tofferwen for his opinion. ”

"Good. I'll go. Williams was overjoyed and hurriedly walked to the door.

Kite Castle's unilateral tearing up of his engagement with the Wellington family will cause violent political turmoil in the Gambis. The new regent decided to go out to avoid the limelight first, and when the old man Goron had taken care of the main trouble, he would come forward to sweep the tail.

Before he could leave the door, the Marquis of Goron stopped him again: "Williams." ”

The Regent paused, turned his head, and smiled dryly. "Teacher, do you have any other instructions?"

Goron looked at August's unique smile, was silent for a moment, and waved, "Go early and return early." ”

"Teacher, don't worry. I will definitely be back. ”

Williams bowed deeply, turned and stepped out of the room, gently closing the door. As he walked, the smile on his face faded and his expression became heavy and resolute.

Williams muttered to himself, "Roland, are you leaving?" and immediately smiled.

"You can go if you want...... I'll leave the family affairs to me. I'm sure that when you come back, we Auguste will have a second legend. ”
