Chapter 133: Departure for Lance (I)
"This way, please. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info "The big General Armitage did not have a good face towards the envoy of the Toledo Empire, and although he said the word please, he did not have the slightest intention of please.
The envoy of the Toledo Empire followed behind General Armitage, and every time he saw this tall figure, his heart tightened, who made General Armitage lose a good face was really terrifying.
There was no one in the corridor, the candles flickered in the wind, and if it weren't for the envoys of the Toledo Empire, who knew that the servants of the Duke's castle were busy cleaning up the banquet hall, he would have doubted where the big man in front of him was going to lead him.
In this way, the anxious envoy of the Toledo Empire followed General Armitage all the way to the reception hall of the ducal castle, and as the door was pushed open by General Armitage, the envoy of the Toledo Empire bowed to Juana.
"Your Majesty, have you already made your decision?" the envoy of the Toledo Empire took a deep breath, knowing that his future depended entirely on a word from His Majesty Juana.
"We agree to your country's conditions. Juana looked at the envoy of the Toledo Empire.
"That's great, Your Majesty. "The envoys of the Toledo Empire are busy signing contracts.
"But we have one more strings attached. Juana rose from her main seat, and she walked up to the envoy of the Toledo Empire.
"Your Majesty, please speak. "The envoy of the Toledo Empire had long expected that things would not go so smoothly, and that negotiations would have to be negotiated to have a result. Her Majesty stood in front of the envoy of the Toledo Empire, although the queen of Galicia was only a fifteen-year-old girl, but this still made the envoy of the Toledo Empire feel the pressure.
This is a little trick that Bondakov gave to Juana, first of all, to overwhelm your negotiator in momentum, so that you can grasp more initiative.
"Your ships may be anchored, but sailors are not allowed to go ashore, and we will send the best doctors to treat them and provide all the necessities, what do you think?" Juana said with a knife hidden in his words, which was also the result of the discussion with Bondakov and the old duke just now.
In fact, Juana has no bottom in her heart, she does not trust that the envoy of the Ledo Empire will accept her conditions, Juana really wants to create a peaceful environment for the north, and the non-aggression pact with the Toledo Empire is too important for the north.
Juana's palms were sweating, and this was her first head-to-head confrontation with the envoy, and although Juana was a little nervous, she tried her best to put on a calm appearance.
The envoy of the Toledo Empire could not see any flaws in Juana's expression, and after much thought, he finally made a compromise.
"Then according to Your Majesty's wishes. "The envoy of the Toledo Empire has sweat on his forehead, but fortunately it is within his authority, and he has finally saved his future, as for the sailors of the Empire?
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Juana officially signed her name on the parchment, and the contract was made in duplicate, and the non-aggression pact between the northern frontier and the Toledo empire took effect immediately.
The envoy of the Toledo Empire resigned to Juana, and he needed to rush back to the country as soon as possible, and this was done, and his position in the Toledo Empire would also rise.
Watching the envoy of the Toledo Empire leave, General Armitage closed the door. He was the only one in the crowd who objected, and as a professional soldier, it was difficult for him to accept the Toledo Empire's proposal. But fortunately, Her Majesty the Queen wittily made the envoy of the Toledo Empire retreat, and General Armitage's heart was also a little calmer, after all, it was thousands of sailors, which was not a small number, and if it went ashore, then it was inevitable that there would be various problems.
After calculating the time, there is still about half a day before the remaining fleet of the Toledo Empire will arrive at the port in the north, Juana assigned tasks to everyone one by one, Bondakov is fully responsible for the remaining fleet of the Toledo Empire, and the old duke is going to the southern border, the puppet king Aldrich has been recruiting troops, Juana has to prepare early.
General Armitage stayed behind in Sintra, and as one of Her Majesty's most trusted generals, General Armitage of course had to guard the center.
It was already late at night, and the old duke and the others retired separately, and only Yu Chen was left by Juana in the reception hall of the ducal castle.
Yu Chen, who was an observer throughout the whole process, did not participate in the decision-making, but his role was indispensable, and Yu Chen was the source of Juana's courage, and Yu Chen felt extremely relieved in her. At the same time, Juana is also creating opportunities for Yu Chen, and she wants Yu Chen to participate more in politics.
"The new King of the North Sea?" Yu Chen's mouth was chattering, he learned from Juana's mouth the news of the fiasco of the combined fleet of the Toledo Empire and the Weimar Confederation, which is why the envoy of the Toledo Empire would agree to Juana's additional conditions so easily, the Toledo Empire has lost its naval supremacy after this battle, and the Toledo Empire wants to recover in the shortest possible time, so it will use the non-aggression pact as a condition to save more experienced sailors in its own country, and the Toledo Empire is preserving the seeds of its own naval army。
Yu Chen did not understand naval warfare, but he still felt Francis's horror from Juana's account, which would be unimaginable if he had plundered northern ports.
made a number of suggestions in a row, and Juana nodded seriously, in fact, for this kind of big pirate, if there is no strong naval army, it is helpless to rely on the garrison force on land.
After chatting about politics, Yu Chen wanted to step down, but Juana didn't want Yu Chen to go.
Juana looked at Yu Chen, she was a little reluctant to let Yu Chen go, even if she knew that Yu Chen would come back, Juana was still reluctant.
"Can you stay with me?" Juana bit her lip, her heart was tired, she really wanted to find someone to rely on.
Yu Chen nodded in response, he could feel that Juana had matured a lot, but this came at a price, Juana had to wear a mask called Strength in front of others, and only in front of Yu Chen could she be released.
Juana slept very sweetly on the soft bed in the bedroom, and she kept holding Yu Chen's hand, even if she was sleeping. In this way, Yu Chen accompanied Juana all night, Juana slept on the big bed, and Yu Chen slept on the chair next to the bed.
It was slowly dawning, and when the clock struck six o'clock, Juana got up on time, and she was extremely moved to look at the rest of the night that had been with her all night.
Juana sensed her selfishness. 'Is it really okay for me to do this?'
Originally, Juana didn't want to wake Yu Chen, but Yu Chen still found that Juana was awake.
"Waking up so early. Yu Chen opened his sleepy eyes, to be honest, he didn't sleep well, but Yu Chen didn't regret it, he could let Juana sleep peacefully, he was happy to do so.
"I'm sorry to keep you by my side all night. Juana apologized to Yu Chen for her selfishness.
"What is this, I can always be by your side if needed. Yu Chen touched Juana's little brain, he asked Juana not to blame herself, Juana has always occupied a very important position in Yu Chen's heart.
"Don't go back on what you've said, but pull the hook. Juana held out her little thumb, she knew that it was Yu Chen trying to make herself happy, but how she wished it was true.
Yu Chen and Juana hooked, and the boy made a promise to the girl.
After washing, the two ate together, and Juana deliberately ate very slowly, because she wanted to stay with Yu Chen more. Juana knew that Yu Chen would leave after breakfast, and her majesty was a little uneasy about Reims's journey, so Juana carefully arranged a bodyguard for Yu Chen.
