Chapter 420 [Women's Privileges]

Wheels rolling!

The coachman was already urging the horses to run, the wheels crushing against the stone pavement, the axles creaking.

As soon as he rushed to the front of the mansion, before the car stopped, the loyal old servant with gorgeous hair in the mansion had already trotted out.

When Orvieto was helped out of the carriage, the old minister, who had always been strong and strong, stumbled and almost fell under the wheels!

"Old, sir?"

"Let go of me!"

Oviedo suddenly emitted a fierce light in his eyes, shook off the old servant who grabbed his arm, and strode into the mansion.

In the hall, a young man who looked to be in his twenties had been waiting for a long time.

This young man was strong and sturdy, but he was dressed in the uniform of an imperial civil official, a plain white linen robe, and in appearance, he was seventy or eighty percent similar to Oviedo. Seeing Oviedo walk in, he hurried over.

"Father?"

Oviedo glanced at his son, and did not speak, but walked directly past him, came to the table, grabbed the kettle on the table, did not take the cup, put the mouth of the kettle to his mouth, raised his neck, and poured it into it.

It's been a long time......

Syllable!!

The kettle was slammed to the ground by him, and the copper kettle had been smashed flat.

And Oviedo pinched the corner of the table with one hand, the old minister's body was trembling faintly, and his fingers were directly white!

Finally, he took a deep breath and slowly exhaled it.

"Father, what the hell is going on?"

Orviedo shook his head slowly, staring at his son. The tone was a little bitter: "Span, you know, until today, I really regret it!"

Oviedo's son, Span, was stunned, looked at his father, and said in a deep voice, "Father, what do you regret?"

"That New Year's Eve a few months ago...... I ......" Orviedo's voice was deep: "I...... Should have died that night!"

Span's body was shocked, and he stared at his father in surprise, but he didn't expect his father to say such a sentence.

After the coup d'état of Hiloh usurped the throne, old ministers like Oviedo became the focus of attention for a time.

And Orviedo was after the day of the coup. He was held in a cell in the palace.

In the end, the old minister chose to give in to Shiloh - openly and secretly, of course, many people would rebuke and disdain him: the Chancellor of the Exchequer, who had always been known for his toughness, turned out to be just a soft bone when the matter came.

And only Spann knows how difficult it is for his father to choose to take this step!!

All he remembered was the night his father was finally released back into the house. The whole family was glad - but this old minister was the only one who locked himself in the study and locked him up all night.

Even at that time, even his own son. Although I am also happy for my father's safe return, deep down, in a deep place, it is inevitable that my father will eventually choose to defect. And I feel a little bit of disappointment -- this disappointment has nothing to do with human ethics and feelings, but probably stems from the disillusionment of the idol in my heart.

And just before his father gave in to Shiloh and went home safely. In the imperial capital, the incident of Kaman and Luo Xiaopu's blood splashing the hall broke out!

Under such a strong contrast, it is conceivable how much suffering this old minister has suffered in his heart!

Spann couldn't even imagine what kind of force supported his father, still straightened his back, re-picked up the burden of the empire's finances, and survived step by step to this day in the midst of those ridicules and mockery, both openly and secretly.

"If I had been a few years older, perhaps I would have gone with His Majesty Marci. One night, after two glasses of wine, Oviedo said to his son, "But now I can't die...... Because your generation hasn't grown up yet!"

It was these words that rekindled the fire of worship for his father in Span's heart.

And to this day, watching my father lose his soul and flee home as if he was running away, I watched my father say such words in a depressed tone......

Spann froze, stabilized his mind, and reached out to tug at his father's sleeve: "Father, what happened?"

Oviedo smiled faintly, and then, in a strange tone, recounted what happened in the palace today.

Spann was able to keep his composure at first, but when he heard it, he suddenly exclaimed, and he covered his mouth hard, and stared at his father with wide eyes.

Unmoved, Oviedo continued to say everything in the palace in that almost indifferent tone......

"Shiloh...... Is he crazy!!"Spann shouted: "He actually dares to attack the Tulip family!!Is he really not afraid of provoking a civil war!!

The young man waved his arms excitedly: "This shameless usurper!!Did he forget it, is it the Tulip family, which supported the sky of the empire in the most difficult era......!

Oviedo was not surprised by his son's excitement.

Because he knows very well that this son of his has been a staunch "tulip ist" since he was a child, to be precise, his son is an admirer of the tulip family.

This is not surprising, in fact, the great legend of the Tulip family has always been circulated in the empire, and many young people, especially among the aristocracy, have grown up listening to the stories of the first duke of the Tulip family. The glorious image of the first duke is deeply engraved in the hearts of many young people, and they are promised to be the idols in their hearts!

What could be more inspiring the admiration of young people than a young man who has created a great family on his own, who has become a prominent figure like no other in the world, who has created a legend that cannot be surpassed, and who has become the object of admiration of all people?

In the past, of course, Orvieto would have approved of his son's view—even he himself had grown up listening to Dewey's legends.

But at the moment. For the first time in his life, when his son was filled with righteous indignation, the old minister fell into a strange and indifferent ...... In silence!

After Span vented, he suddenly noticed his father's silence, he frowned, and looked at his father who was slightly distracted: "Father...... What are you thinking?"

Oviedo suddenly sighed softly and said in a low voice, "I was thinking...... If...... His Majesty Marchi is still alive and reigning, what will he do. ”

Spann was stunned for a moment, then stared at his father with incredible eyes. Exclaimed, "Father, are you...... What are these words?!"

Orviedo sat down slowly, his hands still clenched tightly at the corner of the table.

The old minister's body trembled slightly, and then, he sighed deeply: "Because just now, in the palace, facing Xiluo, the usurper...... In the face of his words...... I suddenly realized that I was almost convinced by him!"

The expression on his face was a little miserable!

Span's face was even more ugly, and he bit his lip. Looking at his father: "You...... How could you have such an idea? Father, you are the most determined and courageous man I have ever met......"

"It's not about being firm and brave!"

Oviedo was a little weak, but shook his head very resolutely!

He looked up at his son, "We all respect the Tulip family...... No. One could even say that tulips are worshipped. But...... I suddenly realized that if I put aside the emotional factors of the tulip family in my heart for a while...... Look at the ...... with a sober attitude towards history I suddenly found out that, for a normal empire, the Tulip House is now. It is indeed a deformed being!"

After a pause, he looked at his son with a dissatisfied face: "That's hard to hear...... But the facts are the facts. ”

"In the midst of an empire. The highest authority can always be in the hands of one person. Any such a minister would only compete with the emperor for power...... There is so much power, if you take more, I will definitely take less!

As any emperor, unless he is particularly mediocre, he will never tolerate a powerful minister to share supreme power with himself for a long time!

And our empire ...... Such a special situation has been maintained for more than 100 years.

Several generations of emperors have silently endured the Tulip family's storage, silently endured, and there is a huge storage in the empire that is fully qualified to threaten the imperial power, silently enduring, a storage zài who shares the highest authority with himself!

This is unimaginable for a natural leader like the emperor.

So...... To say that the tulip family is great, it is naturally great.

However, if you put aside the emotional factor...... The current Tulip Family, such a behemoth, for an empire, it can indeed be said to be a deformed existence.

You have read history books, and I have read history books.

Imperial power is exclusive, unique!

The imperial power may make some compromises and concessions to power in a certain short period of time, but this time is limited, and sooner or later, the imperial power will break out into a strong backlash. Because there is such a thing as imperial power, it is naturally impossible to be a thing that can be shared with others!"

Spann stared at his father, he seemed to be trying to refute something, but he, who had been familiar with history books since he was a child, couldn't say a word to refute it.

Although emotionally it's really hard to accept...... But he had to admit that his father, Oviedo, was telling the truth.

This is indeed true!

"Then you speak of Marcie......" Spann hesitated.

"I'm thinking...... In the face of such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity...... What would he do if the man sitting in the palace now was not Hilo, but His Majesty Marhi. ”

Span's eyes suddenly became astonished: "Father, what are you talking about!!If His Majesty Marci was in power, he would never have done such perverse acts!!"

"Perverse?" Orvieto actually showed a faint mocking smile on his face: "Do you think it's perverse to weaken the Tulip family now?"

Spann wanted to retort, he wanted to say that it was a terrible mistake to attack a legendary family who had made immortal contributions to the Empire. But then he thought of what his father had just said.

It is undeniable to put aside his emotional inclination towards the tulip family. If we look at it in an indifferent and neutral manner, my father's words are justified: the Tulip family's existence is too special! so special that there is no similar example in the history books of the past and the present.

The result of such a thing as imperial power, which is shared for a long time, will inevitably cause strife!

And no matter how much credit the tulip family makes. But in the face of the emperor's natural legitimacy, there was no position to demand continued sharing of imperial power - unless the tulips immediately rebelled and made themselves the new royal family.

If you don't rebel, then as a nobleman, indeed, you should maintain the authority that a nobleman should have.

Crossing the line is a special case...... It can be temporary, but not long-lasting.

After thinking about it for a long time, Spann finally found a reason for himself:

"Now that the empire is in trouble internally and externally, Shiloh dares to do such a big thing. Once a civil war is started, where will the empire's national power fall? Isn't such a stupid thing perverse?!"

Oviedo calmed down and stared at his son: "Internal and external troubles?

This time, before Spann could speak, Orvieto himself had already gone on quickly:

"The only internal worry at the moment is that Shiloh is not in the right place! But he doesn't have any rivals and imaginary enemies for the throne! Even if some people think that Shiloh has won the throne in a disdainful way, at least in the Augustinian dynasty, Shiloh is the only one who has the best blood to inherit the throne! The people who are the most threatening to him are dead! But in this world where the bloodline system represents a qiē, the blood flowing in his body is destined to be the best candidate for emperor at present. There is no doubt about that!

Unless there is a change of dynasty, the Augustinian dynasty is replaced!

However, neither the people nor the aristocracy had any intention of overthrowing the rule of the Augustinians for a change of dynasty - since there was none. Then Shiloh, as the only representative of the Augustinian family, continues to sit in the position of emperor, which seems unstable, but in fact he is more stable than anyone else!

It's an internal worry...... On the contrary, I think that the current tulip family is in the zài. is the biggest internal worry of the empire!

Power is such a thing, in fact, very simple.

A healthy and reasonable rule is that whatever status you are, exercise the powers that your position confers on you. I am Chancellor of the Exchequer. Then we will do the financial success. If he is the emperor, then he has the power that an emperor should have.

And the Tulip family is now a duke, playing the power of the emperor of the entire empire for several generations...... Do you think that's reasonable?

As for the external troubles you mentioned......

Where is the external threat?

Could it be because of the military conflict with the orcs reported by the Northwest Independent Division today? God knows if this is a conspiracy concocted by the Northwest Independent Division itself in order to betray the Tulip family!

The orcs have been subjugating to us for a hundred years! We are gradually weakening them, weakening them by economic means, fighting them!

Do you think that the large number of smuggling caravans that go north every year to trade is really just a matter of the royal family's negligence in managing this kind of thing?

We use our special human intelligence, in the way we do best: wisdom! to weaken our enemies!

I have served for many years as Chancellor of the Exchequer, and I can tell you very well that the current Orc kingdom is in an unprecedented state of weakness!

Because of the unrestricted growth of the population and the lack of internal resources, the civil strife in the orc kingdom has become more and more! The most confidential information I have received is that in the last three years, there have been more infighting and infighting between large and small tribes in the orc kingdom than in the past ten years combined!

We use the cheapest things produced by the Roland Empire, food, clothing, and other consumables, and go to the Orc's territory in exchange for their real resources!

We're bleeding the orcs little by little!

Foreign aggression?

I tell you, the entire Empire, even the most conservative generals, don't think that the Orcs pose any real threat to the Empire! With the Kaspersky Line intact and the presence of several elite main battle legions in the Empire, I don't think the Orcs pose any threat to humanity.

As for the level of our civilization, in the past 100 years, our military means have made great progress...... And the orcs, what strength, savagery, courage do they have?

Do you still want to talk about the grassland?

Looking at the entire history of the founding of the Roland Empire, this hundred years has been the weakest era of the grassland and the most subservient to the Roland Empire!

In the past 100 years, we have been constantly weakening these steppe barbarians! We have used grain and inferior wine. In exchange for enough war horses from the grasslands, we have exchanged the only supplies that the steppe people have an advantage over us!!

And once in the cavalry, the steppe people no longer have an advantage over the plains...... Then the era when the steppe people can act recklessly is already over!!

Span, you should understand!

The era in which you and I live is the most powerful and prosperous era in the history of the entire Roland Empire! This is also the best era!!"

Spann was speechless.

Oviedo continued: "Do you know why I'm frustrated, why I'm angry?"

“...... I don't know. ”

"Because I hate this! I hate it!" Orviedo clenched his fists hard, "I hate that from the mouth of that usurper, I can't refute these facts!

Emotionally, I hate Shiloh, but intellectually...... I have to agree with him. ”

Speaking of which. He said slowly: "His statement, in addition to the above, also includes the most important point: as far as it seems at present, now, is the best time for the imperial royal family to weaken the Tulip family in a whole hundred years! It may even be the only time! This is simply the best opportunity given by God to the royal family to recover all the imperial power!

The current tulip home. It is in an unprecedented state of weakness!

If there is a unique danger of regaining power and restoring imperial power -- it is unique! Now is the best chance! There will be no better chance!"

"First, the coup d'état of Hilo. As a result, the Tulip family has lost a group of young elites, and they have fallen into a kind of internal chaos, conservatives and radicals, in a state of division.

Second. The duchess had not been on the throne for a long time, she was too young and too young. The most important thing is that she is a woman! Although her bloodline gives her strong advantages, these advantages are not enough to fill all the weaknesses! Especially since she is a woman, in this male-dominated world, to let the tulip family's group of old family retainers who have been old for many years, let those arrogant generals, obediently bow to a woman--and a girl who has not proven herself, has never made any outstanding and convincing achievements, and is such a young girl...... It's just too hard!

Third, the betrayal of the Northwest Independent Division, of course, will not directly cause the collapse of the Tulip family, but it will make them hurt hard! It will make them lose blood! It will make them break an arm!

The most important thing is that it will hit the prestige of the duchess even more severely!

Just imagine, not long after taking over the family, the powerful generals in the family led the army to betray...... While everyone is crusading and condemning Sylvester, it is natural that many people will think that it is the young duchess, her control ability is too poor, and her leadership ability is too weak!

In a word, gender, age, are the biggest weaknesses of that Tulip Duke.

The tulip family is great! prestige is high!

But the current tulip family is the weakest in more than a hundred years. It's like a dragon - but it's a sick dragon!

What makes me have to admit is that the Tulip family's control of the grassland has also been problematic.

This time the grassland movement has proved that the so-called White King played an important role in it.

I would even go so far as to say...... It was precisely because of Du Wei's excessive strength and glory that laid the foundation for today's empire! Several of his descendants have inherited some of his geniuses.

However, when these geniuses began to fight with each other......

I don't think that the current tulip family can maintain much strong color. ”

Speaking of this, Oviedo said slowly: "This dragon is in a state of illness. We don't know how long it will be sick...... But it can be expected that if nothing is done, with the wisdom of the duchess, sooner or later all the internal problems will be solved, and the dragon will be restored! Perhaps, in the past 100 years, and in the next 100 years, this stage is the best time to attack this sick dragon!

Shiloh's only weakness. Even his succession to the throne was just as short-lived. It is the lack of people's hearts caused by his improper position.

But even so, I have to say that the timing of Shiloh's choice to start is not too bad, but too good!

Just now, in the palace, Shiloh confessed to me personally. He knew where his own weaknesses were.

But God will not give people a second chance! If he misses this opportunity, he may never have the opportunity to weaken the Tulip family and take back the imperial power in his life!

There's never anything you have to wait until everything is in place - God won't give you that opportunity.

So, no matter what, facing this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Shiloh won't give up. Even he has weaknesses of his own. He won't give up either!

Because, this is his only chance!"

Spann was speechless for a long time.

After a long time, he whispered, "But father...... What do you mean by Marhi?"

"I mean...... If His Majesty Marci had been in power, he would have done the same. ”

"I don't believe it!" Spann shook his head: "His Majesty Marci is a good emperor!"

"It's because he's a good emperor that he's even more capable of doing this. An outstanding and good emperor will certainly try every means to take back the imperial power, and he will try every means to change this situation of sharing authority with others! You will remember for me! A group of people like the emperor naturally does not have any family affection to speak of! In front of the imperial power. Whoever tries to share power is an enemy!"

After speaking, Oviedo patted his son: "Okay...... Here are a few things I want to tell you. ”

Span's face was complicated, though he was still a little unwilling. But he still hung his head silently: "Father, please command." ”

"I know that I have suppressed you in the Treasury and under my wing all these years, and you have always been dissatisfied in your heart. I'm not denying you access to the military...... It's that I'm a little selfish. In the peaceful years. Even if you enter the army, you don't have a stage to display your ambitions, you can only work hard in the army. Silently wasting time on the training ground. Then when he was a certain age, he became a civilian and fell into the military department as a clerical copywriter. I don't think that's the life you aspire to. ”

"......" Spann nodded silently.

"But now it's a different story. Oviedo touched his face and sighed: "I can't see through the future situation of this empire...... I really wish I could die right away! I'm worried about Shiloh, he's a madman! But he's a smart madman! The terrible thing about him is that he's going to play the craziest gamble with the most sensible attitude! I can't see where he will drag this empire into the future. But...... Today, however, I agreed to one of his requests. ”

"Request?" Span's eyes changed.

"From tomorrow onwards, I will step down from my post as Chancellor of the Exchequer and officially become Prime Minister of the Empire. Oviedo's words shocked Span's body!!

Prime minister!!

At least from the point of view of official positions, this is definitely a position below one person and above ten thousand people!

"I don't want to accept such an appointment, but since I didn't choose to die with His Majesty Marci at the time of the coup, I have to do something about it. Shiloh is a madman or a wise man. It doesn't matter if it's a usurper, or if it's a generation of Ming monarchs in the future...... I'm going to keep standing here and keep looking at this empire. That's the only thing I can do until I die. ”

"Father......" Span's voice trembled a little: "You...... It's going to assist Shilo...... Chipping, cutting, cutting, you're going to help him, you're going to do it to the Tulip family?"

Oviedo's face and tone were unusually strict!

There was even a hint of pain in his eyes.

But he nodded slowly after all!

"I have no less respect for the tulip family than anyone else...... But at least, I agree with Shiloh's words. A normal empire should not have such a behemoth as zài. No matter how much I respect the Tulip family...... First and foremost, I am a Rolander. ”

Patting his son hard, not looking at the deep look of disappointment on Span's face, Oviedo had already said quickly, "I have also made a decision...... From tomorrow onwards, you don't have to stay in the FS anymore, and I think you've done a lot of work in the past few years. I have a new position that may be of great interest to you. ”

"New ...... Position?"

......

Hurried footsteps made their way through the steps and through the long hallway.

Even though the corners of her skirt were flying and she almost tripped several times, it still didn't slow her down for half a minute.

Finally rushed to the door......

Several guards in front of the door saw her and slowly moved out of the way in silence.

Fiona took a deep breath. Push the door open with both hands!

After the double arches were pushed open, in the huge room, Fiona saw Du Weiwei at a glance, and saw the leader of the tulip family.

Du Weiwei's red hair had been slowly tied into a bunch and tied behind his head. This hairstyle highlights her long neck with beautiful lines.

She no longer wore the aristocratic dress and soft gown of the past.

A strange and magnificent armor was on her body! The armor was carved with a fine pattern: the tulip that bloomed in the flames!

A long sword, with its scabbard attached, lay quietly flat on the table beside him.

Du Weiwei raised his arms, and he was beside Du Weiwei. Several stern-looking servants were nervously and orderly helping her carefully tie every buckle and rope of her armor.

When Fiona rushed in, Du Weiwei had just completed the last step of armor piercing.

She waved her arms with ease, then quickly grabbed the sword on the table.

"What are you doing in such a hurry?" Du Weiwei didn't look up, his eyes were fixed on this sword--if Chen Daolin saw this sword here, he would be surprised! This is the one he himself brought from the real world and then left in the Tulip Family Castle that day.

"Your Excellency...... Noorin, Noorin Province......"

Fiona gasped. He took a few quick steps and handed over a roll of paper hidden in his sleeve.

Du squinted slightly, and then made a strange move.

She took it casually and didn't look at it. It was gently dropped on the table.

"Don't look at it. Shiloh has always done things after he makes a decision. Du Weiwei's expression seemed to be very calm, and even ...... Still a little weirdly relaxed?

"Since he dares to take this step, then I know the news in your hand without reading it. It was Shiloh's army that had marched into the province of Nurin. Right?"

“...... Yes, it's between us and the Northwest Fortress!" Fiona gritted her teeth and clenched her fists: "That damn Sylvester! Take refuge in that usurper!"

"It's normal. Du Weiwei actually had a smile on his face, but this smile seemed to Fiona...... But it's so, cold?

"He knew he didn't have a future. Du shook his head slightly: "Once I have my hands free, no matter what happens to him, I will clean him up." The family will not tolerate the long-term existence of a disobedient independent division of the Northwest. It's like ...... The emperor would not tolerate the long-term existence of a disobedient tulip family. It's actually the same thing. So, Sylvester, sooner or later he's going to make some extreme moves. It's just that I didn't expect him to choose to join Hilo. I originally thought that he would quietly contact the important ministers of the family to come to force me to the palace. He made a move that seemed clever, but it was actually very stupid. ”

"Stupid?" Fiona wondered.

"Shiloh...... It's the usurper, and he's essentially the biggest traitor in this empire! You know an interesting theory? So the betrayer, in fact, deep down, hates the other betrayers. Because they have betrayed themselves, they are especially afraid of being betrayed by others. So, Sylvester chose to throw himself into Shiloh's arms...... It looks sensible on the surface, but in reality...... He's just going to be used and thrown away! Heloh doesn't really trust a betrayer. Because he himself is. ”

To Fiona's surprise, from beginning to end, the duchess of the Tulip family, the tone of her voice and the expression on her face were so faint and casual!

Finally, Fiona couldn't help it and whispered, "My lord...... Your affection ...... Is it really okay?"

"Problem? Of course there is a problem!" Du Weiwei's fingers gently played with the hilt of the sword in her hand, and her tone became more and more strange: "Of course I am very angry, very angry. For the betrayal of that guy in Sylvester, and for Shiloh to see the right time to attack me...... I'm very angry at this! Even the one who hid behind the grassland king's tent and made waves, my distant cousin who didn't know how many generations had passed...... Does he really want to be king?"

"Then you, ...... you now" Fiona looked at the smile on Du Weiwei's face, and suddenly felt a creepy feeling!

"What else should I do?" Du narrowed her eyes slightly, as if she had finally regained a little "normal", staring at Fiona: "In your thoughts, should I smash the one in the room in anger and then roar." Screaming, cursing Shiloh with the most vicious words to God, cursing Sylvestre, cursing those damn bastards?"

Fiona was speechless......

At this moment, outside the window, there was a sudden sound like a dense raindrop!

Fiona recognized it immediately......

It's a horseshoe!

Steed!!

Many, many war horses!!

Soon, a loud rallying cry came from the square of the castle!

Du Weiwei stood in front of the mirror, looked at himself in the mirror for a moment, but continued to say as if he was strolling:

"I know what that little neurotic Shiloh thinks. It's nothing more than forcing me...... Hum. Cutting off a piece of my flesh and giving me a bunch of trouble in front of him, he thinks that I am burdened with a heavy responsibility, so there is no possibility of being angry at the crown, and there is no possibility of opening up a piece with a knife? He thinks I am wise...... So I will weigh the pros and cons, swallow my anger, and endure the fact that he has snatched away the Northwest Independent Division! Now are the weakest times in history...... I don't have the capital to turn my face with him Shilo...... I don't have the confidence to turn against him! I have to face the questions of those old ministers in the clan, and I have to face the steppe cavalry that is gathering more and more on the grassland?"

Speaking of this, Du Weiwei suddenly stopped talking!

Her eyes widened suddenly, and she burst into laughter!

"Hahahahaha

Her laughter was so abrupt that it even made Fiona feel the urge to rush up and touch Du Weiwei's forehead!

She...... In this moment......

This Tulip Duke. You can't really be mad, right?

Fiona speculated uneasily.

But suddenly, Du Weiwei's peculiar and arrogant laughter came abruptly and walked quickly!

She had already put away her laughter quickly.

And then. Fiona noticed that the Duchess was staring at her!

On her delicate face, there was still a calm and indifferent expression. But those beautiful eyes have already narrowed into a line!

Fiona suddenly felt that Du Weiwei's eyes were ...... As if there was something terrible!!

Very scary!!

"My dear little neurotic nephew is actually quite right, and he is very accurate...... The timing of his chances was also fantastic...... I would even say that in the big picture, he is a little more powerful than the Marsch who was killed by him, and ...... He's also a little more ruthless, and these are rare qualities. Don't look at me like that, I'm not talking back. For an emperor, cruelty, ruthlessness, and ruthlessness are all necessary qualities. ”

Du Weiwei said this, but he had already slowly grabbed his sword, turned around and strode towards his door—Fiona had to follow quickly.

“...... But Shiloh made a mistake. ”

Du Weiwei said as she walked, she didn't even look at anyone - all the way along, all the people in the castle saw the duchess in military uniform, and they all knelt down and saluted.

Du Weiwei didn't look at these people, and quickly walked down the steps to the hall.

"He wanted to take advantage of my weakness as a woman, and of course this hand was smart. But at the same time, he wanted to use me as a sane and intelligent person to force me to make compromises...... That's a problem. ”

Du Weiwei walked to the steps leading from the second floor to the first floor, and suddenly stopped!

The guards of the Tulip family beside her all stopped neatly and stood beside her, only Fiona almost hit Du Weiwei's back.

Du Weiwei had already turned around, still with that indifferent smile, and glanced at Fiona.

"His mistake was ...... He thinks I'm a woman and this weakness can be exploited. But I forgot about another natural specialty of women. ”

"Talent...... Feona was stunned for a moment—for a moment, the woman looked down at her towering breasts stupidly.

"Don't act like an idiot. Du waved her hand slightly, her expression seemed to be getting more and more funny.

She looked up and stared at the huge oil painting on the wall!

That huge oil painting that covered the entire second floor to the first floor wall!

On the oil painting, the red-haired young man ...... The name that has been sung countless times by generations of the Empire......

"A woman's natural specialty is ...... As a woman, I don't reason with others sometimes! As a woman, I don't want to be a smart and rational person sometimes! As a woman. I have the power to be unreasonable!!And this time, I don't want to be a smart and rational leader!!I'm going to do it again!!"

Fiona's mouth is already wide open!!

Oh my God, you heard me right!

In the mouth of this noble and elegant duke, I actually heard foul language like "fuck?!!

Am I having auditory hallucinations?

"Saw me, this ancestor of mine. ”

Du raised his hand slightly and pointed to the mural on the wall: "This ancestor of mine is recognized as one of the smartest people of his time...... But even he had said a very rebellious word to the Pope of the Temple of Light at that time...... I think a lot of people don't know this secret. ”

Looking at Fiona's frightened expression, Du Wei reached over and pinched the chin of this gorgeous mature woman, with a wicked smile on her face:

"My ancestors said to that bad old man: If you provoke Lao Tzu, I will turn my head and help you to beat you with charges. Let's see who dies first!"

Fiona felt her heart tremble!!

Oh my God!!!, the first Duke of Tulip, who was wise and martial, really said such a rebellious thing?!

"Didn't Shiloh try to force me? Didn't he think I would compromise? I let him know if an angry woman would keep her sanity and reason with him!"

After saying this, Du Weiwei had already quickly pulled out the sword in his hand!

She threw her scabbard lightly on the ground, turned around and strode towards the door of the hall!

Fiona's body was a little weak, and she was stunned for a while, forgetting to follow up.

In the distance, Fiona saw the castle gates open. Du Weiwei walked out of the door and stood on the steps.

There was a guard with him, and he had already fastened a bright red cloak behind Du Weiwei's back.

And past Du Weiwei's back, Fiona could be faintly seen. On the square outside the Tulip Castle, there are already swords!

Densely packed, I don't know how many cavalry gathered!!

The shiny armor reflected a large area of cold light!!

Du Weiwei turned his back to Fiona. Then she made the first time in her life to face the army...... Mobilization!

"All the Tulip family soldiers, listen!!I don't want to talk nonsense with you!Because I'm very annoyed right now!!I'm very angry!I want to kill people so badly!That bastard called Sylvester, he betrayed the family! He wants to split the family with an independent division!!I think all of you know that the Tulip family has been in existence for more than 100 years. There has never been such a thing!!So, now, I'm going to go to the Northwest Fortress! I'll cut off the bastard's head with my own hands! Then we'll send people to every town and village in my family's domain!!I'll let everyone see the consequences of angering the great tulip!!I'll let everyone see the end of tarnishing the glory of the great tulip!!"

Du Weiwei's slightly sharp girl's voice is unusually loud at the moment!

She brandished her long sword, pointed at the sky, and roared angrily at the countless cavalrymen in front of her:

"Now, I'm going to go and kill someone!!, do you want to follow me!!

After a few seconds......

In the square in front of the entire castle, thousands of voices have turned into one word!

"Kill !!!!!!"

......

Du Weiwei had already walked down the steps, turned over and jumped on the war horse brought by the guard.

At this time, Fiona, who had come back to her senses, had already chased out of the hall and chased to the steps, nervously looking at Du Weiwei, who was sitting on a war horse.

"Optimistic about home. Du Wei turned back to Fiona, pulled the corners of his mouth, and the cold smile resurfaced: "Do whatever you have to do......!" It can't collapse!"

"But...... Adult ......"

Fiona was still anxious after all.

At least in essence, she happens to be the kind of person Shiloh calls her: smart, sensible, and knows when to endure and compromise......

Therefore, in Fiona's heart, Du Weiwei reacted so violently, such a volcanic eruption...... Absolutely unwise!

But on the contrary, Du Weiwei saw Fiona's concerns, but deliberately hit the horse and came to her side.

Bending down slightly, Du lowered his voice slightly......

At this moment, the smile on this woman's face can be described as "evil"!

"Fiona...... Guess what that Shiloh guy would have reacted to if I played a little bigger...... I mean, after I kill that Sylvester bastard, I recapture the Northwest Independence Division and the Northwest Fortress...... Let the Northwest Independent Division withdraw to the family, and I will tear down all the gates of the Northwest Fortress before leaving! Give this undefended fortress to the orcs in the north...... Guess how awesome that Shiloh guy's face would be if I played that big?"

Poof!!

Fiona's legs weakened and she sat directly on the ground!
