Chapter 358: Poor Worm's Background

Don't live, don't live! Lao Tzu doesn't live!

Char looked at the sky with grief and indignation, clenching his fists. Merlin had already calmed the tearful Suling chick there, so he looked at Char coldly, "My old man's arrangement, do you have any differences?"

Char looked at Merlin and straightened her neck: "I ......"

"As a man, you have to take your own responsibility. In this world, men are always stronger than women, women, are always the weak side, you are a big man, but you bully women, "What kind of ability? My old man also teaches you to be a man." Merlin snatched a few words, which immediately made Char angry.

Char glanced at Su Ling fiercely, the anger in his eyes was undisguised, Su Ling seemed to be a little weak-hearted, flustered, and seemed to realize that he had gone too far. "I haven't done anything to the ground at all. Char said loudly in annoyance, pointing at Su Ling: "If you are responsible, it depends on who is responsible, right?"

Adeline, who was hiding behind, immediately had a hint of joy on her face, and thought, "Haven't you done anything?" When she looked at Su Ling again, her eyes were clearly very unfriendly.

Merlin frowned and looked at Su Ling, who quickly wiped a few more tears, "I didn't tell a lie, that night, I ...... I'm in his room...... The maids around me knew that even my father had noticed about it later, and I ...... "All right!" Merlin waved his hand, "There is no need to talk about this kind of thing openly."

Su Ling hurriedly said, "Mother...... Lord Merlin. It turned out that she was going to call her mother, but when she saw Char's annoyed eyes, she quickly subconsciously changed it. , lowered his head and whispered, "What do you mean, I am naturally very happy. But this kind of thing, it's not easy to settle down casually, after all, my father is also the leader of the Zaku tribe, according to the traditions and customs of our tribe, the chief's daughter must follow the customs of the tribe when she marries, this is an ancient rite, and you can't mess around. I'm going to have to be one by one, one by one, one by one."

Merlinde's face calmed down a little, and nodded: "Well, you people from the Zaku tribe, there are more strange rules, I said that if you want to marry the chief's daughter, you must also get the title of warrior in the tribe, I heard that there is also a rule of 'going to the sword mountain and crossing the sea of fire'." There are also a few big things that the tribe recognizes, and a few fierce magical beasts to kill in order to get the title, get the !$ grid to marry the chief's daughter, and accept the challenge of the warriors in the tribe......"

Every time she said a word, Char's face turned white, but he was not afraid that these things would be too difficult, and Char didn't care about things like killing beasts, coping with challenges, and getting the title of warrior.

It's just that he is worried that once Merlin goes crazy and forces himself to marry this Suling chick, there are so many rules of the Zaku tribe, if he really wants to do it one by one, then he won't do anything in the next six months, and go to the Zaku tribe to conduct the trials of those warrior titles...... "In this case, Ge's marriage will be put aside first, in short, with me, I won't let this kid lose you." Merlin sighed.

As soon as Char heard this, he was also immediately relieved, he didn't expect Merlin to become so good at talking) suddenly moved in his heart: r is a little beaten on the snake) and took the opportunity to say1 "That one by one, one by one, this poor worm, ah no, Adeline is also a member of the royal family, and there are many rules, isn't it also one by one."

"Hmph. Merlin snorted: "The rules of the Zaku tribe are traditional customs, and they are related to the traditions of all the people, how can they be lightly abandoned? As for Adeline's family, they are just those old rules of the world, besides, I know those old things from the Hannigan family, and they will not pursue me or anything, so I don't care...... It's you, do you want to push back again!"

Merlin glared, and Char quickly closed his mouth. Immediately, Merlin glared at Char fiercely, "Okay, that's all the way I'm done, what are you still standing here?" My old man is angry when he looks at you now! You guy looks honest, but he didn't expect to deceive so many girls!" Char was aggrieved, thinking to himself where did Lao Tzu deceive women?

But Merlin actually relented, but he didn't really stuff himself with another wife, which was lucky, he didn't dare to say anything, so he quickly withdrew, and before he came out, he glanced at Su Ling, thinking to himself How did this troublesome chick come here? Damn, this messy guy, when he has time, Lao Tzu can beat her hard.

Out of the backyard, Char saw Garin and other Zaku warriors outside, and then went up again to salute, although everyone spoke different languages, but they were born and died together, and they were particularly affectionate when they met.

Especially Char helped the Zaku tribe clean up the Damandras serpent, which is equivalent to becoming a great benefactor of the Zaku tribe, these Zaku warriors look at Char's eyes, and they are already like looking at the gods, although Char is affectionate, but these guys have always been in awe.

The two sides gestured with their hands for a long time, and they couldn't agree that Su Ling's chick could act as a translator, but now she was currying favor with Merlin in the backyard, and she was very weak about Char, and she didn't dare to come out for a while, and finally after a while, it was Ah Cai who ran in.

It turned out that Ah Cai went to the military camp outside the city to report to Char, and Char rushed back like a fire when he heard it, but Ah Cai was left behind. The young man Zaku came late, and with Ah Cai as a translator, the two sides could finally communicate.

It turned out that these Zaku warriors had just come from the tribe today, and they had traveled all the way through the mountains and rivers, and there were nearly two hundred people in a group, all of whom were carefully selected from the tribe, and they also brought a large amount of gold one by one!

It turned out that after the great chief of the Zaku tribe reached an agreement with Char, in addition to thanking him for sending so much gold in addition to Damandras's kindness, he also promised Char to make more deals with Char here in the future. The Zaku tribe is rich in gold, and there are also all kinds of high-quality monster skins and other things, if these things are shipped out of the market, they are all treasures.

It's a pity that after Char came back last time, he encountered the Odin people going south, but where did he have time to send people to trade with the Zaku tribe?

The Zaku people waited at home for a few months, there was no news of Char, and the war on the mainland cut off the trade routes of the merchant groups in various places, as a result, the caravans in the tribe were also decreasing, and gradually there was a lot of backlog, and a lot of daily needs in the tribe, even some small amounts of grain, vegetables, tea, etc., were traded with the caravans outside. Moreover, this year's tobacco leaves have been harvested, but they cannot be sold

Drop, can only be piled up in the warehouse mold. Tobacco from the Zaku tribe is one of the most popular commodities in the world and a major source of income for the Zaku tribe. After the great chieftain ran out of patience, he remembered the agreement with Char One by one, Char heard that Char was a big official of Byzantium, and there was still an agreement and friendship between the two sides, so the great chief ordered and sent, such a caravan composed of clan warriors, to go south to Byzantium to find Char.

To Char's surprise, Su Ling, a chick, didn't sneak out this time, but really got the permission of the big chief, and served as a translator in this team, all the way.

This Zaku team brought a large amount of gold, in addition to some tobacco leaves, and some hunted monster skins and other things, a total of several carts.

In addition, they were familiar with the terrain and mountain roads in the mountains along the way, and the original thieves and horse thieves on the wildfire field were basically collected by the people who came to the country a few months ago, so they did not encounter any danger on the way, and they came all the way to Denzel City, Morshire.

As for the Suling chick, she was naturally in a hurry to find Char and ran into the castle guard's mansion "met Merlin...... Su Ling had seen Merlin at the beginning, and knew that the strong man was the most feared person by Char, and when he saw that the people in the house were busy, he inquired, and it was actually Char who was going to hold a wedding?

Su Ling was anxious at that time, this chick was really a little cunning, so she found Merlin directly, and there was the scene just now.

After greeting with Garin and other Zaku warriors for a while, Char immediately asked people to prepare wine and food, and invited everyone to have a full meal, and half of the wine was drunk, but that Garin said something in Char's ear, and Ah Cai, who acted as a translator next to him, also had a strange face, and said to Char with a wry smile, "Garin said that the witch doctor in the tribe is gone, and he asked him to say hello to you." Now that the Lord has passed the test of the tribe and is about to take over the position of the tribe's priest, I am afraid that I will not have the opportunity to leave the tribe in the future, and she said that she will always remember you, my lord......"

Speaking of the witch doctor who was cold on the surface but passionate on the inside, Char suddenly smiled again, remembering the night before he left...... Ahem, drink and drink!

The arrival of these Zaku people brought with them a lot of good things, especially gold and tobacco, which were of great value. It's a pity that now that the war is raging, there are piles of refugees in the city of Denzel, but where are there any trade routes circulating?

Char sent someone to find Green to discuss, and after Green came, after interceding with the situation, he also had the same meaning with Char, "It's not difficult for them to buy daily necessities, but there are no other houses in the city, we have only sent people to farm now, and the autumn grain has not been harvested, and the grain in the city has been rationed, where is the surplus grain to trade with them? As for the other goods...... Now there are wars everywhere, where are the trade routes?"

Char was also silent, but then he suddenly remembered that the guy ** Dax was coming, and as soon as his heart moved, he sent someone to invite Dax.

Dax has been hiding in the cavalry barracks outside the city these days, and I heard that he still doesn't get along with Nene.

Char went down to rest after Garin and the other Zaku tribes had arranged, and waited until it was almost dark before Dax was summoned back from outside.

This guy has been mixed with the cavalry for so many days, and his originally beautiful face has become much darker, and when he walks, he obviously stretches his legs like a cavalryman, which is obviously the legacy of riding too many horses these days, but he seems to be in excellent spirits.

Walking in, he ran in front of Char first, grabbed the cup in front of Fuya, took a sip of the water inside, and spit out again, before he smiled, "What's the matter with calling me back in such a hurry?"

Char looked at Green, Green didn't speak, and the two of them had some scruples about this unknown Dax, but Char was still more casual than Green after all, so he said, "Last time, the things you told me...... I heard that you have a lot of connections in the northern part of the mainland, and I have a lot of supplies in my hands, and I can make transactions, and if I do a good job, I can also raise more military spending, which can be regarded as a way to enrich the people and strengthen the army, but now there is a shortage of soldiers everywhere......

Dax smiled: "When I entered the city, I saw the natives of the Zaku tribe outside, did they bring any good things?" As he spoke, he glanced at Char deeply, "I didn't expect you to have such a wide range of roads, even the Zaku tribe has your relationship, the tobacco of the Zaku people is a good thing, and the best tobacco, if it is sent to Lantis, it can be sold for the same weight of gold." ”

After speaking, he sat down, thought for a while, and then looked at Char and Green: "Where do I come from, both of them are family members in Moore County, and everyone knows it very well." Since you are willing to ask me to cooperate, then you might as well make it clear. In terms of backstage, I don't have any intention of getting involved in the mainland, but I just want to stir up trouble here and make some trouble for the Odin. In this big gamble, our boss has already bet on the Byzantine side. Therefore, since everyone wants to cooperate, it is better to be open and honest, so as not to guard against each other and be suspicious in the future, but it will ruin things. "Yes. Char nodded-0, "I want a name." Dax said, "My identity is not visible, I need an official identity of your subordinates to run some things."

Char smiled, "You want an official position under me? That's not difficult, I'll appoint you as the adjutant of logistics quartermasters, and you can be regarded as Cato's deputy." "No, the position of the quartermaster is not good, I want the military position. Dax said: "You don't have to worry about me pulling your troops, I'm alone, you don't have to be suspicious of me." "Yes, what military position do you want?" Char nodded happily.

Dax touched his chin and smiled evilly, "I get along well with Lord Nene...... Well, you're going to let me be a battalion officer in the cavalry. ”

Char looked at this guy and smiled strangely, and he just had a bad feeling in his heart...... This guy has bad water in his stomach, and he is mixed with Nei, so he won't hold back any thoughts to harm Lao Tzu, right?

But the words were already spoken, and Char nodded. On the spot, a warrant appointment document was written, appointing ** Fudax as a stingy battalion officer under the First Banner Regiment of the New Cavalry Army.

"Okay, I have the name, this thing has to be done secretly, those guys from the Sixth and Seventh Corps, I can't let them know. Well, I need some reliable manpower, you can drop some people from the pro-military camp around you, no more, fifty horsemen is enough. ”

Char also responded, and the personal soldiers around him were all the original warrior regiments and people who supported the regiment, so they transferred fifty people to him, but they also sent Alfrecat to Dax, who did things finely and was not bad, and being placed next to this Dax, it could be regarded as a surveillance. Everyone knows it, and they don't break it, but it looks like a mess of harmony.

"I took these people with me, and I set off, at most in a month or two, at least twenty days, and I will always come back. Just wait for my news. Dax stood up, looked at Char, and said with a smile: "It's a pity, but I'm going to miss your wedding, alas...... That must be a very fun thing, but it's a pity, it's a pity, one by one," Char looked annoyed, and watched Dicks walk out.

Green sat aside and didn't say anything, and after Dax left, Green frowned, "This Fu is a ...... sent by the Landis after all."

Char sighed, "Now we don't have a choice, as long as we have a bit of strength, we have to borrow it." ”

Green smiled, "I don't mean anything else, just cooperate with the Lantis, once the matter is known from above in the future, it will always be a handle, don't forget, you are just a county guard, and you are a temporary substitute." You don't have the power to make trading covenants with other countries. "Urgent. Char waved his hand.

Green smiled, he was not a pedantic person, so he didn't say anything more, and then looked at Char with a sad face, Daogong "What happened in the afternoon, I also heard about it...... Char was angry "Which guy is talking more? These guys are all under-cleaned up!"

Green patted Char and said, "I think it's more appropriate to marry the daughter of the chief of the Zaku tribe than to marry Her Royal Highness Princess Adeline in your backyard, and it will be more beneficial to you." Char's face suddenly became ugly.

Green shook his head: "I didn't mean to make fun of you...... Char, let me tell you the truth, now the situation is erosive, you are burdened with heavy responsibilities, and the situation in the north, now it seems that you are the only one who has hope to clean up. I'm outdated, and I've been left in the military academy for too long, and my influence in the army is much less than it used to be. And the remnants of the Sixth and Seventh Corps were defeated, and they were not used. But...... Do you know the identity of Her Royal Highness Princess Adeline? Char shook his head and told the truth, he really didn't know much about the poor worm's life story until now. "This highness, when I was in the imperial capital, I knew about her. Green's tone was serious, "However, I heard that her position in the royal family has always been awkward, and His Majesty Kantos has always disliked her very much, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always defended her with affection." Moreover, the background of this Highness Adeline is really complicated. Although she is Her Royal Highness...... But to be honest, her title of princess is actually not from our Byzantine Empire. "Huh?" Char was stunned.

"Her mother is our Byzantine princess, the sister of Kantos the Great. His Majesty was crowned emperor that year, and the process of succession to the throne was quite twists and turns, and the blood was also heavier, and several of His Majesty's brothers coveted the throne back then, and finally in the palace coup d'Γ©tat, they died and were injured, even if they didn't die at the time, they didn't end well later. Green sneered: "The struggle for the throne" has always been so ruthless, and it goes without saying that "But our Majesty Kantos is cruel to his brother, but he is excellent to his sister." That is, the mother of Her Royal Highness Adeline. It's a pity that later our empire fought several wars with the Odin, some lost and some won, but in general, we still lost more, and later made peace with the Odin, and the other party put forward a request for marriage. Her Royal Highness Adeline's mother, she married Odin, and the Odin Emperor heard that he didn't have too many hobbies in women, and when the Odin Emperor succeeded to the throne in the past, the competition for the throne in their Odin tribe was more cruel than our Byzantium, and the Odin Emperor almost killed his own brothers before ascending to the throne. And the God Emperor Odin, as the emperor of a country, cannot marry the princess of an empire as the queen, which is not in line with the tradition of the Odin people, and will also cause dissatisfaction among various tribes.

Therefore, the one who married our princess is a brother of the Odin God Emperor, not the God Emperor's own brother, but he is also a member of the Hannigan family, and because he has no royal inheritance and no conflict of interests, I heard that the God Emperor is very good to this brother and treats him very kindly. He was also knighted as a prince.

Later, the princess gave birth to a daughter, the Royal Highness Adeline, who was only the daughter of a prince, but was unusually given the title of princess by Emperor Odin. It can be seen how much the Odin God Emperor treats his younger brother prince. That prince also commanded the armies inside and outside the Imperial City of Odin, and was extremely trusted by the Emperor. Unfortunately, he didn't live long, and died of illness less than a month after giving birth to Her Royal Highness Adeline.

Later, when the princess was too sad in Odin, she returned to Byzantium to visit her relatives and recuperate, and at that time, the relationship between the two countries was still better, so she brought Her Royal Highness Adeline back with her. Unexpectedly, less than half a year after coming back, we went to war with the Odin people again, and this time, the princess stayed in the country and did not go back to Odin. This princess also had a bad fate, and before the war was over, she heard that she died of illness because she missed her husband. In the end, Princess Adeline was left alone.

You think, our relationship with Odin is so bad, and Her Royal Highness Adeline has half of Odin's royal blood, and when her mother was alive, she was fine, but after her mother died, she was naturally not treated well.

His Majesty the Emperor Kantos also said that he did not like this niece very much, and even, I heard some secret rumors, and on several occasions, this Royal Highness Adeline almost died in some strange accident. Alas, there is always some unspeakable insider story in the affairs of the royal family.

However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very good to his cousin and has always taken good care of her, but after all, she is the title of princess of an enemy country, always, always ......"

Speaking of this, Green looked at Char and said in a low voice: "Char, you have a heavy responsibility, if you work hard in the future, you will definitely become an important minister of the empire, but the identity of Her Royal Highness Adeline is really a little sensitive, if you marry her, ...... in the future It will always attract a lot of criticism and suspicion.
