Chapter 267: A Trip to the Palace
After all, the plan can't keep up with the change. Horst, the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun", originally thought that this would be a long-term "war of resistance", and made a lot of arrangements for it, but now it seems that all these foreshadowings will be in vain.
But now it seems that it is just a small regret. Since Her Royal Highness the Princess, as the sovereign, has made such a decision, then as a guard, he can only obey her wishes. I never thought that His Highness would make a plan to rush directly to the palace, and he could only follow in her footsteps. Thinking about it this way, I feel like I'm laughing at right and wrong.
Usually the lords in the legends are usually cautious and cautious, but this is a good thing, but Rena is impulsive beyond the plan. However, Horst didn't think there was anything wrong with this, on the contrary, as a martial artist, he also had a violent heart, and such a decision might have to be welcomed by raising his hands.
It was the first time that the kingdom's modern royalty had stepped into the imperial palace, and everyone was stunned by its resplendent appearance. It is unbelievable that the people in the capital are not even half as wealthy as the people in the royal capital, but they should build such a splendid palace.
It is rumored that the upper echelons of the empire are immersed in the whirlpool of power and money, so much so that the rumors of scavenging the people's fat and ointment to satisfy their own selfish desires are true. In this way, the Knights of the Round Table led by Horst naturally did not have a good face towards them, not to mention that the people of the imperial capital were in a state of panic of losing their lives all the time, which further lowered their impression.
But the luxury they never saw inevitably blinded them temporarily, and what they were determined in their hearts was one thing, but what they reflected in their bodies was another. I tried my best to keep a calm posture, but my eyes couldn't help but wander around, looking at the scenery around me, after all, I didn't know if there was a possibility of coming again, and I couldn't suppress my curiosity.
On the surface, the kingdom and the empire maintained friendly relations between the states, but in fact they had long since looked down on each other. "Friendship" is only on the surface, and the stabbing behavior in the secret has been endless, until recently the empire unilaterally sent a large number of spies, finally breaking this situation of mutual hypocrisy.
This kind of behavior is naturally what the "arrogant demon king" does, but the demon king is a very smart guy, so naturally it is impossible to do things that don't matter.
All actions are just to maximize their advantages as a "demon".
Therefore, it is natural that there are no high-ranking rulers between unfriendly countries. Because if you are not careful, you will be buried in a foreign country, which is not worth the loss of the original country.
The same is true for Rena, who will never have the opportunity to see this rare palace if she doesn't take the opportunity to take a closer look at this splendid palace.
But she wasn't moved. Walking at the front of the crowd with her head held high, her body straight, and her waist straight, there was no such thing as a random look - it meant that she was not affected by it in any way.
It had been a short time since I had escaped from that place of right and wrong on the street, about two hours apart. In a short period of time, Rena has perfectly adjusted her state. Obviously, he was affected by his own tricks before, and his body looked quite weak, but now except for Horst and others who were following Rena, no one would actually notice anything unusual about this princess.
Rena revealed herself as a royal family at the gate of the palace, and was a princess in a foreign land, and she came here as a visiting ambassador. A small but delicate gold badge that even a skilled dwarven craftsman could not have copied completely, and the magic array on it, which was too intricate, was already a mess for them. It's almost impossible to pirate.
For noble figures, noble ceremonies are naturally needed to greet them, and although they are hostile to each other, their identities are still there. This is an unwritten rule between states.
The maids, all dressed in uniform were lined up in two long rows, and the complete and uniform movements were almost as if they had been carved out of a mold. As I walked, the walls were faintly glowing with unknown precious stones, and I stepped on the golden carpet, and my feet floated lightly as if I was stepping on a cloud in the corridor.
Just this scene has already formed a huge spiritual offensive, in fact, even the knights of the round table who have been on the battlefield for a long time have a sincere fear at this moment, after all, they have never seen such a huge momentum.
They profess to be not afraid of anything when it comes to force, but they fall behind in the face of something completely untouched. The so-called "attack power of money" is an offensive that is not visible in the kingdom at all, but it can be seen everywhere in the empire and the present world.
Rena understands very well that this is a "dismount" given to herself by someone in an invisible place, which is really clever, and even the maids' action norms must have been adjusted to a considerable extent, and it is hard to imagine how much manpower and material resources have been invested...... But it was such a brilliant idea, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like the mediocre emperor can think of it.
The huge country has fallen into the control of another person.
Originally, this was also a matter of indifference, but if the other party was a guy who didn't care about the life and death of the people, Rena wouldn't allow his existence anyway.
At this time, the situation is no different from being trapped in the enemy camp, but Rena still maintains a proud and tenacious momentum, at least not to be inferior.
One of the low-browed maids looked up and watched secretly. At a glance, I saw the beautiful face of the leading girl, and her firm eyes looked straight ahead like a sharp sword, which was indeed as dignified and beautiful as a peony, and the breath of a king naturally overflowed without words.
Just one glance at the maid lowered her eyes again, so willingly to maintain a respectful posture. What was left was just the natural mood of the other party who was worthy of being a princess.
Rena's etiquette was impeccable.
The long corridor was as stinky and long as the red tape, and at last there was a bright light at the end. After the sudden enlightenment, the entire hall was impressively reflected in front of me.
It is the main hall of the Imperial Palace. It's very different from the main hall of the kingdom. The main hall of the kingdom is also vast, but it still looks like a large hall, and you can still see the dome of the main hall, and you can sense that you are in a closed space.
However, the imperial palace of the empire, the walls everywhere are more than a little larger than the kingdom, and the top is covered with transparent solid-colored crystals, which even makes people feel that this hall has no borders for a moment.
Naturally, the original intention is known, and I am afraid that it is also a sense of deterrence for those who come to meet him. However, there are so many gems that they can replace the great achievements of the kingdom that can be hung on the wall, which makes people feel very wasteful, and it can be said that the hard work and original intention of the people who built the palace have long been scrapped.
The palace was not as brilliant as it was, and Rena didn't feel half ashamed of it.
With an unafraid gaze, he looked straight at the guy sitting on the throne at the high end.
The old man with a scruffy beard...... Definitely not king!
In an instant, Rena saw through his essence. The temperament of a king is not determined by a seat or the perspective of many people, but by the surging spiritual power from the heart. Even if you will temporarily succumb to others, in fact, you will always have a motivated heart and a heart that will not admit defeat, which is the qualification to become a king.
That's not a status, it's an attitude towards life. Fearless, anyone can be their own king.
was glanced at by Rena's extremely sharp eyes, and the other party trembled and unconsciously looked away from his gaze. It's like two beasts that accidentally entered each other's territory, and at the beginning of the first battle, they used each other's eyes to intimidate each other. Whoever starts to look away first means that there is no need for this battle to continue, and the victory or defeat is already revealed when they stare at each other.
Being able to sit in the highest place, his identity is beyond doubt. After all, it is impossible to willingly allow non-royal blood to sit on it, and the great empire also has those loyal ministers.
can prove that he does have the royal bloodline that has been passed down from ancient times to the present, but in the end he has lost the strength to withstand the word "king".
What she didn't know, however, was that whether it was loyalty or something else, in the face of absolute pressure, all of this could only disappear to disguise her existence.
The civil and military hundred officials are indeed the "hundred" civil and military officials. At least if you look to both sides in the middle of the main hall, this group looks crowded. Even if there is not a full number of hundred, there are still seventy or eighty.
In between...... There is a real mob that controls the entire hub of state power.
But if you really want to find out, it is undoubtedly quite difficult to find out in such a situation where it is almost impossible to move your eyes significantly.
So you don't have to look for it with your eyes.
The "pseudo-king" in front of him doesn't matter anymore.
It was the right time for him to speak, and he first said something in a high-pitched tone, but Rena didn't care at all.
Although it is made to make a good manner, this is just a kind of princess princess reserved brought about by a long aristocratic education. After all, Rena came here with a lot of anger, and really speaking, all the people here, whether they are the civil and military officials here, or the maids standing in rows outside, are their enemies in the final analysis.
It is really the existence of the tiger's den in Longtan.
To be here is already a sign of my respect. But the next thing is to do whatever you like.
Rena did not answer her words, which embarrassed the high king, but did not have the courage to put on an angry face. He was deprived of power, like a tiger that has lost its fangs and sharp teeth, once he loses the weapon to continue his self-esteem and confidence, his principles of doing things are much weaker than ordinary wolves.
If it weren't for Horst taking over the handle, I'm afraid the current situation would be very embarrassing.
But Rena didn't care. In the field of vision of her closed eyes, there were obvious lines of power and fear, extending from different parts of each person, and then forming a strong thick rope, all of which clearly pointed in a specific direction.
As a result, the object of the search was found so easily.
"Don't pretend...... Come out. Rena's overly calm tone clearly echoed throughout the hall.
Because everyone stood silently in place, as if the place where they were not some glorious hall, but the door of some ghost gate, or just standing directly in front of the ghost and maintaining a trembling feeling of fear.
It was precisely because everyone was so silent that the words brought out by Rena's clear voice could easily resound around them.
It was a word that the ministers had not spoken for a long time, with a hardened attitude and firm conviction.
The ministers who did so are dead.
This is not the case with the halls of the kingdom, and it will not be such a silent situation. Discussing political affairs is handled seriously, and because he has devoted his heart and soul to it, it can be said that his words and emotions are very intense when he meets ministers who disagree with other opinions. It is common to speak loudly, and if you don't talk speculatively, you will even fist and kick, so that Grandpa Hammery has to stop the discussion and act as a peacemaker. Rena, who was just standing on the sidelines and listening, was laughing softly.
It's very different from this place.
The words were too straightforward, so that everyone present was visibly stunned.
Then he couldn't help but look away from himself, and even the king, looked somewhere. The attitudes are all subtle, and fear drives them to pull back their instinctive movements halfway, as if without the permission of the other party, even looking at the past is a great disobedience.
Rena raised her head and pointed to the void in the crowd. Suddenly, the crowd was cut straight like Moses dividing the sea, revealing the perceived person.
I can't escape, I've been fixed by my consciousness.
Of course, there is no need for the other party to escape.
With a lazy attitude of leaning against the pillar, he slowly straightened up from the sitting position of the pillar of the main hall, and even yawned on the way.
It's as if Rena's arrival was just a trivial thing.
It didn't wait for Rena to speak. The other party has already spoken first.
"Hello, beautiful princess. As you can see......"
"I am the Lord of Pride, Allman Satan. (To be continued.) )
