Traitor One
On the roof of the grocery store, the cold wind blew through the night, and Kaye held a bottle of wine and drank the red wine in the bottle. www.biquge.info The red wine was brought by Gulan from the kitchen, and Gulan originally took the red wine and planned to drink it alone on the roof, but when Kaye came, they drank it together.
Obviously newly married, he doesn't spend the night time with his beautiful wife, but he drinks with his friends in the cold breeze on the roof, if it were someone else, he might think that there is something wrong with Kaye.
Gulan has no interest in women, but thinks women are troublesome, and it feels much better to have Kaye by her side than to drink alone and say nothing to the night sky.
I straightened the wind-blown hat on my head, threw away the cork after opening the bottle, and drank another bottle, red wine is such a good thing, I will drink a bottle before I know it. Kaye put down the bottle in his hand and snapped his fingers at Goo'Lan's quizzing gaze.
Gulan and Kaye were sitting together, and only Kaye and himself were right on the roof in the middle of the night, but after Kaye snapped his fingers, a beautiful girl wearing women's armor and long dark purple hair and fair skin suddenly appeared on one knee, making Gulan's eyes widen.
I'm a thief who is proficient in assassination techniques and hidden, but someone hides himself but doesn't know it at all, which is really careless.
The object of the sudden appearance of the beautiful girl kneeling on one knee is Kaye, so what is the identity of the girl?
"Filia told me about General Luke, Chancellor of the Exchequer, Arida. ”
"Today at noon, General Luke, the General's mansion, had a secret meeting with Alida with the spies of the Empire. ”
The voice of the girl named Filia was cold, but very beautiful.
"Contents. ”
Kaye looked at the night sky, his gloved right hand clenched subconsciously.
"The spies of Verdoria came to an agreement with General Luke and Arida's Chancellor of the Exchequer, agreeing to make the king agree to surrender to the Empire in the Imperial envoy's persuasion to surrender to the King. The Imperial Emissary met the King today, two hours after General Luke and Arida's Chancellor of the Exchequer, met with the Imperial spies. ”
The bottle he picked up was crushed by Kaye, and the fragments of the broken bottle were scattered on the roof tiles along with the red wine.
Gu Lan habitually straightened his hat, and he could feel the killing intent that Kaye had just exploded and disappeared immediately.
"It's hard work, please keep watching. ”
"Yes, my master. ”
The figure of the beautiful purple-haired girl Filia disappeared in an instant, and the worried eyes she looked at Kaye before disappearing, Kaye, who was trying to suppress her anger, naturally didn't notice it.
Rubbing his aching temples, he tried to calm the anger in his heart.
"The Empire moves so fast!"
The spy general and the finance minister who infiltrated Alcreeu in the empire, as the king's retainer, actually had treason in his heart, and he also took action for it.
Send an envoy to persuade him to surrender, the empire is to receive Alcreeu after persuading him to surrender, and then Alcreo will send troops to attack the attention of Cinel. As for Jacksa, which is blocking the west of Alccius, as long as the empire sends troops and cooperates with the troops stationed in Alccius after receiving Alccius, the two sides will fall sooner or later.
Luke Carter and Alida Fodo are both nobles of the kingdom with the title of earl, and they are both nobles who hold important positions in the kingdom and are trusted by King Phelan. Such a nobleman actually has a treason mind, which is definitely a shame for Alcreeu.
When the two invaded Alcrean in Jacksa eleven years ago, they offered to surrender to Jacksa, on the grounds that surrender would reduce unnecessary sacrifices. Now it is only eleven years apart, and the two of them, as nobles of the kingdom, have shamelessly surrendered to King Ferran. Because the two had surrendered eleven years ago, Kaye had a considerable distrust of the two after he came out of Alcxiu.
Let Filia, who is most trusted, spy on the two, also out of distrust of the two.
Eleven years, eleven years of no change between the two, Kaye originally thought that maybe he was suspicious, but it turned out that the two of them were too fragile to the kingdom and to the throne of His Majesty Phelan, who sat on the throne.
In peacetime, they spend the taxes of their lords, and when the kingdom is in crisis, they don't think about how to serve the kingdom and dedicate their loyalty to the king, but they are spies of the secret empire who surrender to the king, and this kind of aristocracy can only be said to be the scum of the kingdom.
Luke and Alida had problems with their loyalty, but they still had talents, their fiefs were well governed, and Alida did a good job of managing the kingdom's finances.
Tonight is another sleepless night, and tomorrow we must go to the palace.
"Kaye, no problem. ”
"Sorry to worry you. ”
In order to reassure his friend, Kaye once again took out a bottle of red wine from the wooden box placed next to him, although he knew that Kaye was not telling the truth, but Gulan knew that now he only had to drink with Kaye.
Between the thrones of Alcreeu's palace, the man wearing a crown and wearing a magnificent costume sat on the throne on the steps, Ferran Alcretius frowned deeply, because his anxious index finger kept knocking on the armrest of the throne.
At the foot of the steps of the throne stood the nobles standing straight, and the envoy of Alccius yesterday made a proposal for the Emperor to surrender. The empire wants to invade Alcreu, of course, if it does not want the people of the kingdom to be sacrificed senselessly, the empire can accept Alcreeu's surrender.
Imperial Verdoria is a superpower, and normally it is impossible for Alcreus to have any hope of winning a war with the Empire, and after the Empire's envoy made a proposal to persuade him to surrender, General Luke and Arida's Minister of Finance both agreed to surrender.
Alcreeu has not had a bad relationship with the empire diplomatically since the founding of the country, and the empire and Alcreeu are not neighbors, but it is really chaotic that the empire would want to invade Alcreeu.
The nobles between the thrones, except for General Luke, who agreed to surrender, and Arida, the Minister of Finance, the other nobles were either silent, and some were angry that Alcxiu would never submit to the Empire.
The envoy of the empire has been sent back to the empire, because even if the two countries are at war, they will not kill the envoy, so even if they are dissatisfied with the empire, they will not do anything to the envoy.
Surrender is impossible, how can it be possible, even if Alkesiu's national strength is inferior to the empire, Phelan has no idea of surrendering.
"Your Majesty, even if we are at war with the Empire, our country has no hope of winning, and if we are defeated, our people will suffer. ”
It was a bearded, well-dressed middle-aged man, the kingdom's general Luke Carter, who spoke with some sense of truth, but Phelan always felt a sense of disobedience.
Why would the general he trusted make a statement to make him surrender, although there is a big gap with the national strength of the empire, but it is not to the extent that he cannot resist.
"Please be cautious before Your Majesty's Imperial Majesty. ”
The middle-aged man, whose hair was neatly combed, was very dissatisfied with General Luke. As a nobleman of the kingdom, it is a shame for the nobles to think of surrendering without dignity, and it is not the first time that Luke has said that he has surrendered, if it were not for King Ferran, Gavin would even have the heart to throw out his white gloves and propose a duel to Luke.
As a nobleman of Alcxiu, no matter how powerful the invasion of the enemy country is, there is no reason to surrender, only the nobles who died in battle, and there are no nobles who surrender and bear the shame.
Luke lowered his head, the sarcastic smile on his lips unseen. He had already said everything he should have said, and he also keenly felt that King Phelan was suspicious of him, and he could no longer speak.
"Dear Marquis, please calm down. ”
Arida Fodo, the chancellor of the exchequer, who had been an indifferent bystander, spoke, and Ardida was obese, beardless, and had a smile on his face that would make others feel good.
"You must know that there is indeed a gap between our country's national strength and the Empire, and after surrendering, you can also ask to just become a vassal state, and then retain Alcxiu's autonomy to the greatest extent, and it is not entirely bad to consider surrendering for the sake of the people. ”
With a smile on his face, he said something that seemed to make sense, but it made the other nobles between the thrones frown.
"Shut up, Arida. ”
Angrily pointing at Arida was Foreign Secretary Jill Perran, who frowned tightly, and the thought of Luke and Arida having taken refuge in the Empire flashed through his mind. But such a thought only existed in his heart for a moment, after all, Luke and Arida were both nobles of Alcreu, and they were trusted by King Ferran, and it was impossible for a capable nobleman to betray Alcreo.
"What an idiot. ”
Alida chose to be silent, sarcastically in her heart, since the idiots of the kingdom chose not to accept surrender, then let them die by themselves, after leaving the throne today, he and Luke will go back to their own fiefdoms, and the spy of the empire also said that if Alcreeu refuses to surrender, as long as the two lead the soldiers of their respective fiefdoms to rebel during the war, and give Alcree a photo, His Majesty the Emperor of the empire will not treat the two of them badly.
The empire is an absolutely advantageous choice compared to Alcreu, and for Alida, whose loyalty to the kingdom has long been gone, Alcrean has nothing to be nostalgic for.
The action of tapping on the armrest of the throne sped up the movement, and Ferran sighed in his heart, it would be nice if Kaye, the retainer he could rely on, was here at this time, but thinking of Kaye was very complicated. From the news received, Kaye and Her Royal Highness Princess Honel, who went to Schunel, got married, but at this sensitive time, the Empire actually declared war on Alcxiu, although it was also Schunel who declared war at the same time.
The quarrel between the nobles at the foot of the stairs was really pointless, and even a quarrel would not solve any problems.
