The great nobles who control most of the essence and bloodline of the empire are ready to move, and they are constantly probing, and just a small spark may cause a drastic change.

It's a pity that there was a fool at this time, who didn't think about sharing his father's worries, but instead cleverly instigated his nobles to tempt and wanted to send troops across provinces.

Who knows whether these soldiers and horses are going to the southeast or where, you must know that the hub of the national railway is only a short day's journey from the imperial capital, and even the cavalry is only two days.

If you were sitting in that position, would you dare them to swagger past their couch?

It's ridiculous that if I hadn't been there for you, you would have thought you would still be sitting here sitting so peacefully drinking tea?"

Hamilton's tone grew harsh, and he was already roaring at the end, while Osborne, who was across from him, was already pale, and cold sweat was running down his fat cheeks.

Because he was that fool, the Earl of York on the north-east frontier, as one of the new nobles, had a shallow foundation, and was one of the leading earls who secretly served him.

It was at his signal that he tentatively submitted an application for reinforcements to the southeast, but it was ruthlessly rejected by the imperial capital and is now under investigation.

Fortunately, he was also a little responsible, and secretly intervened in the matter, but he pretended to be an impulsive move to care about the southeast, and after paying some price, he really appeased it.

But I didn't expect that the man on the other side was also secretly contributing, which also showed the energy of the other party who had been operating in the empire for many years.

At that time, Osborne didn't have any mature plans, he just wanted to show his presence, maybe his father would really allow him to lead the army, but he didn't expect that there were so many things behind it.

Typical of shooting himself in the foot, even he himself has to admit that this senseless temptation is really more stupid than a honey dolphin.

not only almost exposed the military power that was so easy to entrap, but also likely to set himself on fire, making his already difficult situation even worse.

"Then why Sophia...... Now that the whole southeast is her territory, everyone knows that the three-year covenant is just a pretext. He asked indignantly.

Hamilton sighed: "Yes, everyone knows that it is just a fig leaf, but both your father and Sophia need such a fig leaf at this time."

Just because she is already full-fledged and decisive, by the time your father realizes the truth, he will no longer be able to control it.

There aren't many options he can do, and with a crowd of tigers watching, will he turn against his own daughter, a true hero of the Empire?

Now the whole southeast is singing the praises of Sophia's exploits, and her reputation there is so great that it has long surpassed that of the royal family, and that of your father and son.

As long as he dares to order Suoya to hand over his military power and return to the imperial capital, not to mention whether he has the ability to do it, but as long as the order leaves the palace, the entire southeast will be in chaos.

Then there is the southwest and northwest, what will your father do to quell the chaos when he arrives, just rely on those second-line divisions, or those equally old commanders on the northeast border?

No one knows how much the old emperor gave to your sister, at least that set of internal guards has been paralyzed since your father took over, let alone those henchmen and veterans.

It's not your grandfather's fault, as far as I know, during your father's years in prison, he gave your father countless opportunities, but Gulliver disappointed him and chilled the traditional nobles of the entire empire. ”

"There are also the Tempest Legion on the northeastern border, the Flame Legion on the northern border, and the Fortified Legion in the Imperial Capital, all of whom have sworn allegiance to the Imperial Family only. Osborne shouted unwillingly.

"Yes, the dragon lance in the southeast used to be loyal only to the royal family, but what awaits them is a desperate battle in the green ridge, the father and son of Ramand are both killed in battle, the male heir is withered, and the main force of the dragon lance is almost crippled, and it will take at least 20 years or more to return to its peak state.

Since this situation can happen in the southeast, do you think it will happen in other provinces, the bureaucrats of the imperial capital have been accustomed to using the aristocracy against the aristocracy and the means of decentralization.

This is a good thing, but I didn't expect that after countless years of evolution, this system would collapse to such an extent.

It's ridiculous, it's a group of dragons and lions, but they learned the methods of those foxes and badgers, but they can only learn the fur.

Do you think that with this living example of the dragon lance, several other legions will not wake up so as not to repeat the mistakes of the past.

Of course, you may not have to worry about the wind, but what about the scorching heat.

One thing you forgot is that in addition to your father and son, Sophia is also a member of the royal family, and she has always been on the side of the traditional military aristocracy.

So your father can only let himself go, exchange time with acquiescence, and stabilize the overall situation at the same time, hasn't he already started to sort out the military power in the past two months, and he didn't hesitate to let go of the emperor's face and go to comfort those veterans one by one. ”

"But Sophia is a woman after all!"

"Yes, she is a woman, but you have also seen the terrifying energy that those women burst out in the southeast this time.

Now the entire empire and even the three major imperial alliances, from the noble women to the women and children of the common people, have all automatically become Sophia's supporters, and what a terrible thing it is.

Thanks to the fact that she is a woman, Sophia is his lovely daughter to your father after all, and she will never rebel against him as a father.

The blood affection and trust between father and daughter are sometimes far greater than that between father and son, especially in the royal family.

As long as he still has a chance to regain control of the overall situation, then the southeast will still be an inalienable territory of the empire. ”

The tea in Osborne's hand was already cold, and he realized that neither his sister nor his father was as simple as he imagined.

Compared with them, in addition to the insignificant power in his hands, his mental scheming, especially the overall situation, is far inferior.

For a while, he felt a little inferior and regretted.

Since secretly starting to work together, Hamilton has advised him several times to step out of the framework of the imperial capital and not waste time in this vat, the glamorous and glamorous magnates are just flashy and push-and-fall waste.

It's a pity that he refused, and still pretended to be stupid, while spending a lot of money to secretly contact those officials and nobles.

And now, his own sister, the girl who looks as delicate as a flower, has taught a living lesson.

At this time, he could no longer care about the anger and unwillingness when he came, and looked at the deep eyes of the paladin and said in a deep voice, "I need help." ”

The fat face that was swollen because of his determination brought a hint of tenacity, and there was some resemblance to Hamilton's memory of his father when he was younger.

Hamilton quickly put away the trance and nodded: "Now that you know what to do, it's still too late."

Your good sister is obsessed with beautiful love and has not had the heart to make any moves for at least a few years.

The land in the southeast is too barren, and there are grassland thieves on the side, constantly consuming their vitality, and it will take at least ten years or more to develop.

But that doesn't mean you can slack off, because your father is already impatient with your little moves, and if he is given three years, he will be able to gather a large number of military nobles.

You know, after all, he is the emperor of the empire.

If you wait until he is completely stable, you really don't have a chance, so you have to move quickly.

I know you need help, and in fact I've been dealing with this lately and I've finally learned something.

You come with your ears. ”

Osborne leaned over obediently, carefully scerting every word Hamilton whispered in his ear.

As Hamilton spoke, his little eyes, squeezed by the fat, widened wider and wider, and finally they swelled out, looking at the smile on the paladin's lips in disbelief.

"How... How could it be, I mean, how could it be them?" he even stuttered a little because he couldn't believe that Hamilton was providing assistance to this family, and even he could never have dreamed that these people would stand against his father.

Hamilton returned to his seat and watched Osborne digest the information for a long time before explaining, "Who do you think I am, and what have I been doing all these years?"

Every family has another side that no one else knows, and I just know a little bit more. ”

It took a great deal of effort for Osborne not to pass out from the violently rising blood pressure, and his heart was beating like it was about to jump out of his throat, and he couldn't breathe at once

He swore that he must lose weight, and since he no longer needs to pretend to be stupid, he does not need to continue to practice his body.

"But why? You're going to help me like this, what's in it for you?"

Osborne was indeed very puzzled, because compared to the capital paid by the other party, there were really not many things he could get his hands on.

Or maybe he's not as stupid as he seems.

Hamilton played with a delicate silver paper cutter on the table, the blade as thin as a cicada's wings emitting a cold cold light, but it couldn't hurt his fingers in the slightest: "As I said, every family has another side that no one else knows, just like your own mother, Serena. ”

Osborne almost jumped out of his chair, his background was his deepest secret in the world, and the most fundamental reason why he was so difficult to be treated by his father.

Because that would mean a royal scandal, a bad memory that his father wanted to erase from his memory.

He was an illegitimate child, and unlike his brother Winston and his sister Sophia, his biological mother was only a former royal court dancer.

Because of a wrong union, Gulliver is unable to fulfill his promise, so his mother dies in heartbreak and childbirth.

Osborne was taken to the palace less than seven days after he was born, until on the night of his 14th birthday, his father beat him drunk, and inadvertently revealed the secret of his origins, only because of his eyes that increasingly resembled his own mother.
