Chapter 349: Peace Talks
Falco Empire, Queen's Bedchamber.
"What?" Camila looked at one of the maids in front of her, and staggered herself from her seat, her face moved by horror and shock.
"This can't be!" Camila walked up and down the room like an angry madman, her piercing gaze staring at the trembling maid who was kneeling on the ground in front of her, "Are you sure you're right?"
The maid didn't dare to raise her head, and said tremblingly: "Of course, my Highness, I will never be mistaken, it is definitely His Majesty Garcis!"
Camila was in a trance, and she felt a strong sense ......of fear and powerlessness surging over her: "How is this possible?
When Camila said this, she suddenly woke up, and her eyes scanned everyone in the room sharply, as if each of them was a spy and an unreliable traitor.
"Hmph......" Camila took a deep breath, her face gradually softened, and she said coldly, "I know, this must be their new trick, don't want to fool me!"
"You go down first!" Camila said in a cold voice.
"Yes, my highness......" The maids in the room retreated in unison.
Bisoni on the side whispered: "Your Highness, this matter is very strange. ”
Camila nodded with a gloomy face: "It's really strange, after they went to Sky City, they brought back Garcis, no, it should be said that they brought back a fake Garsis stand-in." ”
Beatoni muttered, "Could it be that Tarasia and Don Jafiona have reached an agreement?"
Camila sneered and said, "I can give him everything Tarasia wants, why should he get it from Angel and Tang Jie? Even if Angelken whispers to cooperate with Tarasya, I'm afraid this guy won't either!"
Bisoni hesitated for a moment and said, "My Highness, we can't bet on someone's temperament......"
Camila glanced at Bisoni, "Don't I know, though, I wonder why they brought back Garcis's fake double from Tarasia?"
Bisoni's eyes flickered, as if he had thought of something, but he didn't dare to speak.
Camila snorted coldly: "What? Say whatever comes to mind, when did I blame you for this kind of thing?"
Bisoni said tentatively: "My Highness, I was thinking, although Tarasia is a person who is deep and simple, although he has rarely come forward over the years, but judging from what he has done over the years, he is so forbearing, and what he is trying to do may be more terrible than Princess Angel......"
A sharp glint shot out of Camilla's eyes: "What do you mean......"
Bisoni looked at Camila and said boldly: "After all, if what Tarasya is planning is this empire, then a puppet who compromises with him is not as good as his own hands, do you say?"
Camila took a deep breath: "This old thing still has such an appetite!"
"However, this matter is still uncertain......" Camila paced back and forth with an anxious face, her fingers tightly twisted, "The only thing I can be sure of is that Angel will definitely make a big fuss about this forgery! Why can't this mean woman give me a little peace?"
Bisoni looked at Camilla and was about to speak, but a guard at the door said loudly: "Your Highness, the envoy of the Shira Empire has asked for an audience!"
"Huh?" Camila snapped to her feet, her eyes swept to Bisoni in disbelief, "What are they doing now?"
Bisoni raised his eyebrows: "Congratulations to Your Highness, they must have come to sue for peace!"
Camilla was overjoyed and stepped forward quickly: "Really, quickly, bring them up!"
"No, no!" Camila said as soon as she finished speaking, "I'll go see them!"
Seeing that Camila was so ecstatic that he was almost incoherent, Bisoni hurriedly stopped Camila and said, "My Highness, you must not go! We are the victors, and the victors should have the posture and appearance of the victors!"
Camila suddenly came to her senses, coughed dryly, and then said to the guards: "Take them to the welcome hall, let them wait a while, I can change my clothes......"
The guards led the order, and Queen Camilla looked at the departing figure of the guards, and a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Just let me free my hand, Angel, I want to see how long you can jump?"
With that, Camila turned her head to look at Bisoni and asked, "How are you preparing for the duel in a day's time?"
Bisoni bent down and said, "Please rest assured about the duel, I sent the best soldiers of the Imperial Guard that day to maintain security and order. As for Camero, this guy has been staying in a church, very quiet, barely leaving the house. ”
Camila snorted coldly: "I'm looking forward to this big battle......"
With that, she turned around and walked to her bedroom, and under the careful dress of the maid, she changed into a set of white bottoms, blue edges, and high-necked frilled long skirts, and came to the welcome hall gracefully and luxuriously.
Standing in the middle of the hall was a gray-haired, burly man, who heard Camilla's footsteps and turned around, revealing a majestic face with a tiger-eyed and lion-nosed nose, his eyes were sharp, the fingers of his hands were thick, and his knuckles and palms were covered with thick calluses, which made people know at a glance: this must be a warrior who can fight well!
This man was none other than Holman, the emissary of the Shira Empire.
"You must be the beautiful and noble Highness Camilla!" Holman saw Camilla, stepped forward quickly, knelt down on one knee, and kissed the snow-white Rouyi handed over by Camilla, "It is my supreme honor to meet you!"
With a thick smile on her face, Camila looked at the burly and majestic-looking man in front of her with interest: "What is your name as a guest from afar?"
"Holman, Ritu Holman, my highness, my humble name cannot be heard by you. Holman said to Camilla in a tone that bordered on humility.
Camilla was very satisfied with Holman's attitude, which gave her a strong sense of satisfaction and vanity: "Your Excellency Holman, what are you here for?"
Holman bent low: "I have come to seek friendship and peace." ”
"As expected!" Camila glanced at Bisoni who was following suit, and nodded secretly in her heart.
"Friendship and peace?" Camilla's voice dragged out, "do you mean the millions of troops fighting under the furnace of the gods?"
Holman had expected this, and he said unhurriedly: "It was only a mistake made by our Majesty, and now he realizes it, so he has asked me to come to you as quickly as possible, and ask you for forgiveness and forgiveness in the most sincere and humble words." ”
Camillaha sneered: "Forgiveness and forgiveness?If I lose this war, I will tell your Emperor His Majesty in such words, and he will forgive and forgive me? Do you know how much the empire has suffered in the war you have started?"
Camila's face was full of anger: "Now that most of the navy you rely on has been wiped out, now you know that you regret it?"
Bisoni on the side saw that Camila suddenly became violent, and he couldn't help but jump in his heart, for fear that Camila would scold the man in front of him so much that he couldn't hold it on his face, so he hurriedly coughed dryly on the side.
Camilla just used the topic to play, and didn't want to hold on, and Holman had already had such an awareness before he came, but he just listened with a sinking face and didn't say a word.
Camila had a seizure for a while, her stern tone suddenly eased, she smiled slightly, and said, "But...... Since the emperor of the Shira Empire has realized his mistake, then I am not the one who holds on to the mistakes of others, not to mention that under the furnace of the gods, tens of thousands of soldiers are killed every day, and the soldiers of the empire are making fearless sacrifices. ”
"I think we can change that and save these poor kids, can't we?" said Camilla with a smile.
Holman moved his eyebrows, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes: "Of course, my noble highness, what you said is exactly what our emperor said. Let's forget the trauma and unhappiness of this war. My Emperor had promised himself before I came that he would make reparations to the Empire. ”
Camilla was overjoyed, but quickly reined in her joy: "Oh, what kind of compensation is he going to make?"
For Camilla, the olive branch that the Sylla Empire took the initiative to hand over was already something that made her overjoyed, not to mention offering to compensate the Falco Empire!
If this can come true, then all the unfavorable words of the empire towards Camilla will disappear overnight, and her queen Camilla will be the biggest winner of this war!
Holman was keenly aware of Camilla's joy, and he secretly admired his Imperial Majesty's speculation and grasp of people's hearts: "Of course, it is a compensation coin, we cannot compensate for the land, of course, the land we occupy in your country will be given away every inch." ”
Faced with such conditions, Camilla forced the excitement in her heart, and said with a faint expression: "How many gold coins will be compensated? I have to give an explanation to the people of the empire!"
Holman held up a finger and said, "100 million gold coins!"
Camilla was immediately moved: "You mean...... 100 million gold coins?!"
Because of this war, the Falco Empire almost emptied the treasury, and Camilla had long been overwhelmed by the financial and military politics trapped at home and abroad, and at this moment, the Sila Empire took the initiative to sue for peace and put forward a proposal for compensation, which really made her feel like pie in the sky, which was too unreal!
Holman nodded vigorously: "Yes, my Highness, 100 million gold coins, this is our bottom line." ”
Although Camilla was extremely excited in her heart, she almost wanted to agree to the other party's conditions immediately, but after all, she was an imperial empress and a qualified politician, and a trace of vigilance flashed in her heart: "What conditions do you have?"
Holman smiled slightly: "There is only one condition...... Marry Princess Angel to our Emperor's own brother, His Royal Highness Prince Poly!"
