Section 242 decides

"And that's not all. Bayral continued. "As I told you before, it's likely that the Beru people have vampire backing behind them. ”

"Yes, I remember it vividly. ”

"They're covering it up so well, and even the church guys haven't found Grufitz's loopholes...... In fact, it should be said that this matter was unexpected, so everyone failed to arrange a good manpower to investigate in advance, and it was deliberately covered up by the Belu people afterwards. But," Bayrell said emphatically. "If you do what I said, then Grufiz will have to fight on a much larger battlefield. This time, he was already standing in the sunlight, could he still cover it up like the last time?if the church found out about the alliance between the Belu and the vampires......" Beller let out a few insignificant laughs. But to Robin's ears, the sound was very similar to the laughter of a profiteer looking at the unwilling faces of his customers after they had monopolized a certain commodity.

"It's as simple as more than just one province to get the territory. ”

"Well, Gruni's side ......"

Bayral's laughter subsided. "The stakes are high. Hey......" he sighed quietly. "Things in the world are really fair...... The benefits are directly proportional to the risks. If little Grufiz didn't lie to me, it means...... Gruny's Little Queen...... It's far from that simple. Although Byron had long been opposed, the little queen had also made a lot of preparations. She even wanted to get outside help - a little naïve, but for a teenage girl, that was powerful enough. In another five years, who knows how far she will grow. ”

As he spoke, Bayral reached into his pocket and pulled out the note from before, and this time he did not glance at it in a hurry, but carefully and thoughtfully examined it.

In the makeshift royal palace of Eagle City, Prime Minister Arlene's office was always overcrowded.

It is known that the old man has established himself in the court of the little queen and has great influence. This is half because of his position, and the other half is because of his charisma. Everyone knows that Prime Minister Ellene is a conservative person, and in this day and age, conservative people have always gained more respect and obedience than radical people.

The old prime minister is still busy with his work. His current work is divided into three main areas, one is the internal affairs aspect. In order to prepare the army in all aspects for going north, he had to deal with all kinds of miscellaneous matters, allocate a sum of money, and dispatch batches of military supplies. One is the issue of local officials. Those officials who had shown vacillation and neutrality in the previous civil war would now pay the price for their choice, an ongoing, massive transfer of officials, to which was added to the ongoing crusade against the rebellion of General Essien. In addition, there were various disputes and personnel problems within the court.

Although Allene has multiple or even more than a dozen assistants to help him deal with everything he does, he is still very busy.

“...... I'll sign you a slip and go to Ms. Shirley to collect your money......"

"That guy Ferro...... The ability is very mediocre, well, it should be okay to let him temporarily take the position of governor...... I have a letter here, let him go right away, and do a good job with General Essien...... Remind him that the combat operations of General Essien cannot be influenced. ”

“...... That guy can't do it! Letting him hold this position is hurting him!"

“...... This matter must be considered in the long run, and conclusions cannot be drawn lightly. Leave me with me for the time being, and I'll bring it up for discussion at the next Imperial Council......"

“...... I've already given you a chance, but you didn't cherish it!"

“...... The letter asking for help, another letter asking for help! The same reply as the last time, within a month, the army will arrive in Gaohua City! Let them hold out for another month!"

"What, the warehouse is not ready, tell our Governor, if he can't solve the problem, then I'll ask the Queen to replace it with someone who can!"

One by one, people walked in and out of the office, and some of them left with a letter from the prime minister and a smile on their faces. Some left empty-handed, with a dejected face. In addition, the messengers were also busy taking away reports, documents, and letters and delivering them to different people.

It wasn't until dusk that the matter slowly came to an end. Prime Minister Elynne had a light dinner in his office and then began the final part of the day's work - the preparation of a list of bills to be tabled at the Royal Council on the next day.

One of the messengers knocked on the door, then pushed open half of the door and poked his head into the room.

"Your Excellency, Count Ashrufat asks to see you. "After getting along for so long, these people have figured out the prime minister's temper. "He said he was ordered by you to go to Beleur......"

"Let him in. Allyn interrupted the other party directly.

The order was quickly carried out, and a few minutes later, Ashruphat appeared at the door of the office, led by the messenger from earlier.

"I have important things to talk about with Count Ashrufat. Eryn said to the messenger. "If there were any other guests, they wouldn't be there. Got it?"

"At your command, Prime Minister. He bowed and left, and closed the door as he left.

"Sit, Count Ashrufat. After the errand left, Ilynn got up from his chair and made a "please take a seat" gesture to Ashrufat. Opposite Irlen's office, against the wall, there was a large couch. This is for the guests to sit - although most of the guests have never been seated.

This was a bit of a surprise, as Ashrufat had only accepted a very simple task - to inform Bayral of the meeting. He thought he would just have to say something in return. But Ellen's behavior seemed to imply that there would be a lengthy conversation between them.

"Lord Earl. After Ashrufat took his seat, the prime minister spoke first. "Speaking of which, it seems like the first time we've been in the same room like this. ”

"That's true. Ashrufat couldn't figure out what Allyn wanted to do for a while, so he could only follow the other party's words for the time being.

"Then again, it seems that I do lack a relationship with the Earl. When I became Prime Minister, you had already left your position in the Imperial Council. Then it was to reorganize the army and go south to defeat Byron's traitor...... A series of things. I haven't had a chance to get close to you. ”

"There are still many opportunities in the future. Ashrufat replied cautiously.

"I've heard people," Eryn said. "You have great admiration for Gruni's founding hero, Garunas, the sage of the wilderness, I wonder if it's true?"

"I can't talk about great admiration, but I admire the ancients a little. ”

"Oh, no wonder. Everywhere is playing up the genius and brilliant exploits of the sages of the wilderness. Allyn said something that seemed to be idle talk, but there was a very strict tone between his tones, and there was no atmosphere of idle talk at all. "There is even a rumor among the Ichi that if there is no Garunas, then King Makremiz would not be King Makremiz. On the contrary, without King Macremiz, then Garunas would still be Garunas. I don't know what you think about this?"

Here it is! Ashruphat thought to himself. Allyn would never be in the same room with him for no reason—the relationship between the two was not close enough to be that close. This is either a hint or a tentative.

"What does the Prime Minister think?" said Ashrufat, who finally decided to ask rhetorically.

"People in the market are short-sighted and always see only one side of the matter. In my personal opinion, neither King Macrémiz nor Garunas can leave each other. Without Garunas, King Makremiz may not be able to be the founder of the kingdom for the rest of his life, and without King Makremiz, then Garunas ...... There will be no such illustrious feats left for the world to admire and admire. ”

Ashruphat remembered what Rhodia had said to him in the first place. Allyn's words seem to be very different from Rhodia's views.

"You don't seem to think so. Eryn seemed to sense Aerufat's thoughts. "Well, actually, you can think about it this way, if you were a different person, who would give Garunas that endless trust?"

"In the annals of our country, it is generally recorded that 'King Macremiz and Garunas led the army to the battle'. But really on the battlefield, the relationship between the two people is ...... However, it was Garunas who was the true commander of the army, and King Makremiz chose to go into battle in person, for Garunas, who was supposed to be a courtier...... This is the highest trust a monarch can give to his subordinates. Entrust all of his own qiē, including his future, and even his own life, to Garunas...... Without this trust, how much power can the so-called 'Sage of the Wilderness' show? If from a neutral point of view, Garunas has the 'ability', and King Macremiz provides the 'stage'. Without either of the two, there is no way to talk about great achievements. ”

Eryn seemed to be speaking casually, but as long as you saw his expression, you could understand that his words were definitely targeted, hinting at something to Ashrufat.

"Ashrufat, you have chosen to be on the side of the royal family at the most critical moment, so neither Your Majesty nor I have ever doubted your loyalty. That's why you've been able to sit here in peace, even though you've done all those things in Fornoros......"

"Your Excellency, can you tell me directly what happened?" Ashorufat cut off the other man very rudely. He was tired of all these things like the way he spoke, the negotiation skills, and so on. If he really wanted to learn, then he would have chosen a better and more direct teacher, Ah Jin.

"In response to the invasion of the Chaos Legions, we will form an alliance with Tiberius. After deliberation with me, Her Majesty the Queen, and others, we have agreed that you should be the Supreme Commander of the Coalition Forces!"
