The turmoil caused by the fraud of the City Alchemist Association of Angry Waves is gradually subsiding as investors get their money and the World Bank takes over. None of the parties to the gladiatorial fight were willing to continue to escalate the incident, so after reaching various agreements, all of them tacitly suppressed public opinion, and the city returned to the image of singing and dancing. The city of Furry Waves has not suffered much and is still a world trading city.

Like throwing a pebble into a pond, the water in the center is calm, but the ripples spread outward for a long time.

The status of Angry Waves City in the Golden Shield Empire determines that any incident within it will affect the situation of the entire country. As more and more information converged from various paths to the imperial capital of Shenglun City, many people couldn't hold their breath.

In one of the palace's conservatories, the fireplace is burning brightly, and the walls are covered with velvet carpets that are both decorative and warm. The rest of the decoration is also extremely luxurious, showing the wealth and might of the empire.

Emperor Whitehead Augustine the Great sat in a chaise longue covered with an animal skin blanket.

Augustine the Great ascended the throne at the age of twenty-three and has reigned for forty-six years. He witnessed the vigorous development brought about by the new technological revolution, and also seized the opportunity of the times to keep the empire up to speed with the pace of the world.

One by one, the kingship of the surrounding countries was ended, and the friends and enemies of Augustine the Great were exiled or guillotined.

The Golden Shield Empire is still one of the most powerful countries in the world, and the power of the Golden Shield Imperial Family has not been weakened in the slightest, but because the old aristocracy cannot keep up with the times, the imperial power has never been stronger.

Augustine the Great has been described by the outside world as an iron bowl dictator, but no one denies that he was a wise monarch.

But no matter how wise a king is, he can't stop the passage of time, and Augustine the Great, who is nearly seventy years old, is sick and dying!

Weak, he could no longer wear the heavy crown, and sat there like an ordinary old man.

Today Augustine the Great was in a very good mood, he asked the internal official to pour himself a glass of red wine, listen to the music played on the gramophone, and look at the Chinese pieces in his hand.

When you see a happy place, you can't help but hum a tune.

After a while, the internal official walked up to his side and whispered, "Your Majesty, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess has arrived, and she is waiting outside for your summons." ”

"Agatha is coming......" Emperor Augustine the Great, hearing his daughter's name, immediately said, "let her in." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Soon Agatha followed the internal official into the warm pavilion.

Agatha, dressed in palace clothes, saluted Augustine: "Father, I wish you good health!" ”

Augustine the Great waved the officials away, and then sat Agatha in the chair opposite him.

"It's so inconvenient to be a member of the royal family...... Augustine said with emotion, "As my daughter, it's so troublesome to see me." ”

Augustine's tone was easy-going, but Agatha remained upright, not in the slightest presumptuous gesture because it was her father opposite.

"Father, you are the emperor of the empire, and your respect is respect for the empire. As your children, you should always maintain your dignity. ”

"You're just too serious." Augustine knew the character of his daughter: "Much like me, always on my toes in dealing with any sudden change of events."

Pity...... You are a woman. One day you will get married, and your heart will change, your heart will soften, and you will not adapt to the need for ruthless political struggle. ”

"Then I won't marry!"

Agatha's answer caused Augustine to burst into laughter, which then caused a violent cough. Agatha immediately handed the red wine on the table to his father, Augustine took a sip of red wine to suppress his cough, and said to his daughter: "Agatha, the current empire does not need political marriages, I do not interfere in your life, I believe that you will eventually meet someone you can't help but want to marry him."

Let's not talk about it......

I received a message from Raging Waves that the meteorite you sent to the Cape Secret Intelligence Bureau did a great job. The amount of taxes paid to the Empire will be doubled in the future, and this year's taxes will be made up according to the amount after the tax increase.

Although it is a little less than the five times the tax fee that Viscount Iscoran said, this is only half a year of achievement from Meteorite to Raging Waves, and I am looking forward to what kind of surprise he will give me in the future.

You've discovered a talent. Meteorite belongs to the Secret Intelligence Bureau and also belongs to the Empire. I know it's a bit too much to poach people from you like this, but I think the stage of Angry Waves is ...... for Meteorite Some are small.

The Empire needs young blood, and the future Emperor needs a close attendant like Meteorite. ”

When Agatha knew that her father was going to summon her, she had already guessed that it might have something to do with the events in Raging Waves.

The Meteorite did a series of things and achievements in the City of Angry Waves far beyond Agatha's expectations. It only took him half a year to cut such a large piece of cake from the Angry Waves City that the new nobles were holding in their hands.

The reputation of the City Alchemist Association of Angry Waves City has been greatly reduced after this incident, and the city government department has reached its lowest point of control over merchants. The Meteorite Corporation's Innovation Society has three important seats in the city council, and controls the city's security department and the city's finance and taxation department.

The new aristocratic forces entrenched in Angry Waves City were defeated by the Falling Star, and the staff officers sent by the first assistant of the cabinet returned to the imperial capital in disarray.

Angry Waves City promises to pay double the tax!

It's a big win! A beautiful victory!

If it were a real war, this feat would be comparable to opening up territory for an empire.

No wonder my father is so happy today.

If Detective Meteor's identity is fine, Agatha will be very happy. After all, the merits of subordinates are also the merits of Shangguan, rewards and rewards are indispensable, and they will also leave an excellent impression on the emperor.

But...... Who is this meteorite?

Moreover, his father wanted to poach him from the secret intelligence bureau, which made Agatha very embarrassed.

"Father......" Agatha thought about his words for a moment, and then replied, "Although Meteorite has made some achievements in Fury Waves City, now is not the time to recall him to the imperial capital. The recovery plan for Raging Waves with Meteorite has only just begun, and he needs to keep Angry Waves behind to defend against the new nobles. ”

Emperor Augustine considered Agatha's reply for a moment, and then asked, "Is there no one in the Secret Intelligence Bureau who can replace the situation of the Meteorite as the abbot of Angry Waves?" I'm very satisfied with the current situation in Angry Waves, so don't touch the interests of the new nobles too much.

Imperfection is more conducive to the stability of the empire. Some of the people in the Brotherhood of Blades have been restless in the past few years, and we need the support of the new nobles, and we can't risk fighting on two fronts.

At this time, letting the falling star come to the imperial capital is a kind of protection for him, and I can come forward to make the new nobles let go of their grudges against him. ”

Augustine the Great thought that Agatha wanted to launch another attack on the new aristocracy in Fury Waves, so he stopped the secret service's next move. He has been an emperor for more than 40 years, and his biggest gain is to stop his greed in time and not test the bottom line of either party.

Agatha also wanted to transfer Meteor to the Imperial Capital, tie him up, and ask him where he came from.

But......

She knew that the Falling Star would never come to the Imperial Capital.

Meteorite disobeys, then everyone knows that this is an impostor.

Meteorite now has full control of Cape and has secured three important seats in the Council of Raging Waves. He's got his footing, even if he turns his face...... Agatha didn't know who Viscount Iscoran, Councilor Ibur, or Lady Mihir would choose to follow.

If Meteor and the new nobles reach a reconciliation, they will be left alone to face the wrath of their father.

"Father, Meteorite is a very capable person, and the Secret Intelligence Bureau can't find anyone who can replace him now. If I change the abbot situation rashly, I am afraid that the new detective will not be able to suppress the subordinates of the meteorite detective.

Moreover, Viscount Iscollan is a member of the Brotherhood of Blades, and Councilor Ibur and Lady Mihir were both former councillors on the side of the new nobles. They came to work, all because of the charisma of Detective Meteorite. If we change to someone else, they may alienate us. ”

Agatha's answer left Augustine the Great in deep thought.

With the situation in Angry Waves City not yet stable, it is indeed a bit inappropriate to transfer the meteorite back to the imperial capital. But Augustine wanted to summon the meteor for reasons he didn't say.

After much deliberation, Emperor Augustine said to Agatha in a fatherly tone, "You sent the Meteorite to the City of Fury to do these things very suddenly, and even I didn't know that you were going to launch such a large-scale operation there. I know that you are doing this for the sake of the empire, and there are too many places where you need money for internal and external troubles.

But you should know that what you're doing in Raging Waves has brought you a lot of political enemies. There are new nobles, and there are your brothers......

The meteorite has made them feel the challenge from you, and there are more people coming to me to talk about your marriage in the past few days than in a year combined. The royal family doesn't need a political marriage, so I can only give you this protection, get out of the whirlpool of Angry Waves City, and tell the others...... You have no covetousness for the throne. ”

Agatha's heart is bitter!

As the ultimate boss of the Imperial Intelligence Bureau, she knows what rumors are related to her within the Empire.

The eldest princess joins the battle for the crown prince and backstabs the eldest prince, the second prince and the imperial cabinet in the city of Angry Waves.

It can be said that he has offended all the people in the imperial political arena who cannot afford to offend. If it weren't for her identity as the eldest princess, it is estimated that she would have been imprisoned a long time ago, and then the world would have evaporated.

The best way to dispel this rumor is to transfer back Detective Meteor and hand him over to his father. Over there...... The CIA gradually pulled out and maintained its current state.

Agatha knew that his father had said this, and that he had said what the conversation had begun, which meant that he had thought so too.

"The royal family doesn't need a political marriage!"

In fact, it is a threat.

If necessary, Augustine the Great would decide on her marriage in order to eliminate the hidden danger of the throne.

Agatha was in a dilemma.

In the end, she mustered up the courage to look directly at Emperor Augustine and said, "Father, you haven't made a crown prince now, so you should be dissatisfied with the eldest prince and the second prince." ”

Augustine's face changed suddenly: "This is not what you should say, if it weren't for the fact that you are my daughter......"

"Father!" Agatha said stiffly: "You are so good, in your eyes none of your children satisfy you." And the so-called revolutions that have erupted within the surrounding countries have scared you that the new emperor will bury the empire. ”

"Agatha, shut up...... You're too bold today! ”

"Father, I swear I don't have any coveting for the throne, I just want to do what a royal princess does. We all know how important Angry Waves is to the Empire, which is why the slightest move in Angry Waves City is why someone jumps out to frame me.

You compromise with those people, and they dare not do anything for fear of your majesty. But when ...... When the new emperor ascends the throne, they hold the lifeblood of the empire, will they still submit to the imperial power?

Father, you are leading this ancient empire cautiously in this new era, and your wisdom should be able to see that your daughter is doing these things...... Is it for selfishness? Or is it for the sake of this country? ”

Agatha's words caused Augustine the Great to let out a long sigh.

If it had been a previous era, he would have made the crown prince a long time ago to stabilize the empire's political scene. But what this era needs is not a conservative monarch, but a man who can lead the empire to seize every opportunity point of the era like himself.

These opportunities are fleeting, and if they can't be grasped, they will be eliminated by the times.

This empire is as old as itself, stubbornly ill, and without a Ming monarch to lead it, it will collapse!

How Augustine the Great wished that one of his sons could carry this burden after his death, but they were all played with by the new nobles.

Augustine was disappointed, he didn't make a crown prince just wait and watch them fight. Winning at least means that he has ambition and ability, and knows better the ruthless way of being a king.

At this time, Augustine looked at his daughter.

Agatha has shown extraordinary abilities since she was a child, participated in political affairs early, and was canonized as the "eldest princess" by virtue of her ability. Now she is mainly in charge of the Imperial Secret Intelligence Bureau, which is also the department that she is most comfortable and comfortable to use.

Now that the Secret Intelligence Bureau has made such a big achievement in Angry Waves City, it can be seen that Agatha has the ability to recognize and employ people, and the courage to dare to do something to the new nobles.

If she is not a woman, she is a good candidate for the crown prince. But she will marry and will bear children to others.

Augustine snuffed out the idea that popped into his own.

"I believe in you, and you will faithfully assist the future Emperor to keep this empire prosperous.

Do what you think is right! If I can't find a crown prince that I am happy with, I can raise an excellent eldest princess for the future emperor of the empire.

Go back, I'm tired. ”

"Yes, Father."

Agatha got up and left, secretly relieved. This time this difficulty is barely passed, but what will be the future......

Agatha had a hunch that the meteor would cause trouble for her.

"Damn it, don't let me catch you!"
