Chapter 258: Return

The reason why Maureen is like this is because she feels a sense of crisis, she clearly saw Leng Yi kissing Xia Na on the ship that day, which made her very uncomfortable, she felt that if she didn't work harder, the little boy who had been following her would run away with someone else.

"Well, my dear, I don't reject that, but shall we get what we have at hand for now? ”

Leng Yi said earnestly, it's not that he doesn't know why Mo Lin did it on purpose, and he doesn't have any evil thoughts at all, it's just that in the current Cardenas continent, there is no kind of popular science textbook, and he is still at the age when he thinks that kissing will make him pregnant.

For this reason, he also fantasized about the scene where Xana came to him with her stomach up.

The pure little Leng Yi didn't know that at this time he had hurt a spring heart that was about to move.

Maureen pouted, and after scolding a stupid person in her heart, she looked at Leng Yi who ignored her, and returned to her position dejectedly, she fantasized that the cabbage was Leng Yi, so she cut it hard.

Leng Yi thought that Mo Lin had listened to his words, so he quickly changed the topic and said, "By the way, whose head is the head hanging on the city wall that day, it looks quite like you." ”

Maureen recalled the events of that day, after being captured by Eugene, she was locked in Eugene's room, and then a naked Eugene broke in, and when she was about to do that kind of absurd thing to herself, she had already untied the ropes and used soul magic to transform her appearance with Eugene.

Then he swaggered out of Wath's house, and before leaving, he ordered the mercenaries to cut off Eugene's head. Poor Eugene didn't have time to speak after being tortured by Maureen all night. He was beheaded by his own people, and Webb hung his son's head on the wall.

"That's how it happened. ”

Maureen spoke eloquently. Leng Yizhen felt sorry for the Wence family, who were toyed with by a girl and applauded......

β€œ......”

After Leng Yi and Maureen served the meal, the banquet began, and the table full of food had already made Nelson's saliva flow.

The strange thing is that even Marin was invited, in fact, no one wanted this hostage to come over, but Prince Marin still played his good character of being shameless and invincible, and he insisted that Lei Zhe couldn't stand it with one mouth, so he had to let him come.

The general hostages are in the hands of bandits. How can there be any good treatment, but Marin is self-cooked, constantly clinking glasses and pouring wine with others.

However, when pouring wine with Locke, it was unexpectedly quiet, and it seemed that he was really afraid of Locke's giant sword.

Silk kept asking Nelson for yesterday's 100 gold coins, but Nelson didn't ask, just kept drinking the wine in his glass.

Lei Zhe and Marin fought together, and it didn't take a while. This prince staggered. Fell asleep holding a wine bottle.

Kelly still covered her face with a black veil, although she didn't say a word, she kept serving vegetables to Mrs. Anna, and Locke also clinked glasses with Leng Yi during the period. However, Locke's alcohol consumption is good, on the contrary, Leng Yi after a few drinks. I couldn't do it, and I fell asleep on the table.

The banquet ended in a lively and lively atmosphere. Maureen finally dragged Leng Yi back to the room, as for Marin. but no one cared about him.

On a quiet and comfortable night, Lei Zhe, who was standing on the ship's board, held a wine bottle in his hand and looked into the distance, where was the direction of the empire and his hometown.

He didn't know how long he hadn't been back, or if he didn't want to go back at all, and that there was nothing left but sadness.

His wife, Maureen's mother, was buried there.

Thinking of this, there seemed to be a mist in the corners of Lei Zhe's eyes, but it was well concealed, and things like wine often make it easier for people to recall the past.

"Is it Locke?"

Lei Zhe said without looking back, all these years of swords, mountains and fires, and life hanging by a thread, Lei Zhe has long been able to judge a lot of things from the sound of footsteps.

Locke, who was behind him, nodded and said, "Yes, Commander." ”

Locke still carried his giant sword, and in Leng Yi's memory, Locke seemed to have never left the giant sword, whether it was eating or sleeping, Locke always carried it.

Standing on the ship's board, holding the railing in both hands, breathing in the fresh air, he suddenly sighed and said, "Commander, there is something I really don't know very well. ”

Lei Zhe squinted at Locke and asked, "You mean why you kidnapped the Imperial Prince, right?"

Locke replied: "Yes, I don't understand, this will only make the war burn faster, and it will not be beneficial to the revolutionary army at all, because the current revolutionary army has not yet had the strength to fight against the imperial army, and besides, the order issued by the above did not say that the imperial prince should be taken away." ”

Lei Zhe nodded, Locke is indeed a genius, whether it is force or intelligence, he is a first-class genius.

Everyone in the world thinks that the revolutionary army took away the prince of the empire so that it can have the capital to negotiate with the empire, but few people know that the reason why the empire is an empire is because it has the means of iron and blood and even weapons, so it can become the strongest military capability among the three great powers.

For those high-ranking people of the empire, it is very simple to give up a prince, and besides, they can use this reason to attack the headquarters of the revolutionary army without any worries, without fear of public opinion in other countries, and there is no reason for other countries to interfere, after all, they are famous.

To sum up, the capture of the imperial prince by the revolutionary army is a stinky move, a very stinky move.

For this reason, the revolutionary army has expressed anger at the "zero wing" approach more than once, but now, they also have to accept this dumb loss, after all, now the whole world knows that it was the revolutionary army that took away the imperial prince, and if the honest hand over at this time, it will have a great impact on the morale of the army.

"You're right, it's not that the boss wants me to take the prince away, but that the prince himself came to me and asked me to take him. ”

Lei Zhe's words made Locke, who had always been calm, also show an incredible expression for the first time, it was Marin himself who asked the head of the regiment to take him away. What a 15-year-old boy asked for himself?

"Why?"

"Because he said he wanted to see the world outside the empire. ”

Locke looked at Lei Zhe suspiciously, waiting for his next words. Lei Zhe continued: "Don't underestimate that child, although he is only 15 years old. is usually a hanger, but he relied on his own means to become the eldest prince of the empire and the heir of the future empire. ”

Locke was even more puzzled at this time, and Lei Zhe smiled bitterly: "At that time, the emperor had a total of 5 children, and Marin was the third, that is to say, if he wanted to become the eldest prince, then only his two elder brothers were seriously ill or died. ”

Locke was dumbfounded. That little devil who looks like a sloppy egg, is it......

"That's right, Marin killed his two elder brothers with his own hands, and without knowing it, and when he became the eldest prince, he was only 10 years old!"

Lei Zhe's answer made Locke's whole body tremble, and he couldn't calm down for a long time......

Locke was messy in the wind, and he still didn't believe what Lei Zhe said just now. Marin, who was rambling on the ship and never did business, would be such a ruthless person, if it was really like what Lei Zhe said. Then Marlin is hiding too deeply.

Lei Zhe touched the stubble on his chin and said with a wry smile: "I expected you to have such an expression a long time ago." ”

Locke laughed awkwardly a few times, still disbelieving like Lei Zhe confirmed: "Respected regimental leader." You're not kidding, that scumbag. Oh no. Marin, is he the one who can do such a thing?"

Locke's suspicion is not unreasonable, if you rule out the possibility of Marin pretending to be crazy and stupid, he is only 15 years old, and according to Lei Zhe, he can win in this kind of deceitful government at the age of 10, which is too incredible.

Lei Zhe shook his head and continued: "Actually, I don't know if it's true or not, it was that little bastard who sued me. ”

Locke exhaled and said helplessly: "Maybe he bragged." ”

"No!"

Lei Zhe simply denied it, he looked at Locke, pointed to his eyes, and said solemnly: "Lies can deceive people, but eyes can't deceive people, I'm very sure that his eyes didn't have any weakness in his eyes at that time." ”

Lei Zhe said very seriously, this tone didn't want to be the usual frivolous tone, Locke said with a straight face, "But, if he is the kind of person who is very scheming, then it is even more impossible for him to sue you about this, it will not do him any good, right?"

Lei Zhe smiled: "When Marin insisted on me taking him away, his tone was very sincere and even a little urgent, so he did not hesitate to tell me his secret in order to gain my trust, I think it was because his life was threatened. ”

Locke was even more incomprehensible now, he looked down and thought, he really couldn't figure out if someone in the empire could take the life of a great prince?

"That's right, Iron Will, Andrew, if I'm not mistaken, he's the only one in the Empire who has the ability. ”

Lei Zhe solved Locke's doubts, Andrew, the current prime minister of the empire, is known for his iron and ruthlessness, and many reforms of the empire were proposed by this prime minister, who has made great contributions to the military of the empire, has great power and fame in the empire, and can even mobilize troops like royalty.

The most important thing is that this high-ranking prime minister, he is still alive, and he can still live as if nothing happened when his power is so great that he can compete with the royal family, and this alone shows his authority and clever political means.

Locke didn't understand these policies of the Empire, and the only thing he wanted to know was why Lei Zhe wanted to bring Marin, a question that Lei Zhe hadn't answered him yet.

Lei Zhe seemed to see through Locke's thoughts, and explained: "Locke, do you think the revolutionary army's approach is correct? Blind fighting, just give birth to continuous wars, well, even if the revolutionary army wins, then it is difficult to guarantee that he will not become the next empire, so that only the civilian suffering will be hurt by the war." ”

"I have experienced that pain myself, so I know that the world is being distorted, and the origin of the distortion is not the empire, but the human race, and in these 700 years, the end of one era after another, it is not the fault of any one country, it is the situation that is caused by the struggle between the people of the country, the hatred, the sinister and selfish human heart, we human beings have been repeating the same mistakes all the time, again and again. ”

"You can't just fight. They cannot continue to plunder each other, whether they are revolutionary or imperial. The only way to break this sad chain is to cut it. It is to cultivate a Ming Jun, an emperor who can change the empire. ”

Locke was in awe, although Lei Zhe's ideas were too idealistic, but all he thought about was for those unarmed civilians, for this reason, he did not hesitate to violate the orders of the superiors, and even offended the entire empire, thinking of this, Locke respected this regiment commander even more in his heart.

Lei Zhe's words continued: "That's why I brought Marin with me. I don't want to teach him and I don't have the ability to teach him anything, so let him see, with his own eyes, as he said, the world outside the empire, the bottomless darkness hidden under the light and prosperity. ”

"The most important thing is ......"

Lei Zhe paused when he said these words, and said with a meaningful smile: "The kind of look I saw on Marin's face, that is the kind of eyes that can penetrate through the darkness and perseverance. To be precise, it is a "alive" look, like the light of "hope" "

"I've only seen two people with this kind of look, one is Marin. And the other one, I won't say you know. ”

Locke nodded, the look in the white-haired boy's eyes when he first looked at him in his mind, just like the feeling that Lei Zhe had said. He said proudly: "You mean Leng Yi!"

"That's right, I always had the feeling that these two men were going to start a revolutionary storm on the continent of CΓ‘rdenas. ”

Lei Zhe looked into the distance. Said seriously.

Reich's prophecy was confirmed soon after, and the two boys, now only 15 years old. One day in the future, more than 700 years of history will be repainted!

β€œ......”

On July 21, 761 in the calendar, the three-year battle between the Imperial Army and the Revolutionary Army finally ended on the day when the peace treaty was signed on the North Sunderland River, and history seemed to happen as fate doomed, the battle began on the same day and ended on the same day, and later the North Sunderland River was changed to the River of Peace, in order to commemorate this "three-year campaign" and the rise of a nation.

The Revolutionary Army returned Marin Garucha, the Grand Prince of the Empire, in exchange for the northernmost part of the Empire, the Plain of Saint-Pe, and the Empire lost a third of its territory and put an end to the myth of its own invincibility.

Among them, only the top echelons of the empire knew that it was the hateful miscellaneous people of the Republic of Cred's position who were obstructing the victory in this battle, so that the military situation in the rear was out of control, and the army had to be transferred back from the front line to prevent the rear republic from flanking, so that the revolutionary army had a chance to breathe.

In response to the accusations of the Empire, the Republic of Credder put on a look of being wronged, claiming that the army stationed on the border between the Kingdom of Felix and the Empire was just to conduct military exercises with the Kingdom of Felix, and the so-called joint attack with the revolutionary army was even more empty and groundless.

At the same time, Empress Elisa IV also announced that the Kingdom and the Republic were only military exercises to strengthen the army, and other than that, there was no purpose.

In July 761, the two great powers on the continent of CΓ‘rdenas and the revolutionary army staged a good show, playing a trick on the empire, and by the time the empire reacted, the spears of the revolutionary army were already extremely sharp, but the empire was defeated because the reinforcements were too late to support.

The lack of morale of the military, coupled with the eyesight of the two countries in the rear, had to sign a peace treaty for this reason.

No matter what history says later, the empire still lost, and from then on there was one more country on the continent, the Kaonesnow Country, a country that advocated freedom and did not have an aristocracy.

On December 21, 761 in the calendar, Leng Yi was the second person to leave the "Zero Wing" after Ma Lin on the "Zero Wing" air thief group responsible for escorting the imperial prince back to the imperial capital.

Leng Yi is 18 years old, after three years of growth, he is taller, tall and elegant, cleverly highlighting the boy's extraordinary figure, wearing a tight white windbreaker, echoing his hair, but under the cloak he is wearing black light armor, black and white colors collide, but reflect a different beauty.

The back is still the broken sword, the facial features are exquisite but the perseverance of a man, he stands proudly in front of "Zero Wing", followed by a hotly dressed girl, and the two are saying goodbye to the person on "Zero Wing".

Leng Yi just turned 18 today, and he can officially enter the three major talent academies to open the age of talent, thinking of this, Leng Yi couldn't sleep with excitement last night, and he can finally get his own ability.

Maureen next to Leng Yi has also become more beautiful after three years, although Leng Yi was taller than herself a year ago, but Maureen's long legs make her look no shorter than Leng Yi at all, Maureen is dressed in a red soul master robe, covering her flawless figure, but there is a deep neckline on her chest, although it is winter, but Maureen, who loves beauty, still exposes all the places that should be exposed.

Mo Lin is saying goodbye to Lei Zhe, Lei Zhe, who has always been less tendonous, is also hugging his daughter tightly at this time, and is explaining all kinds of precautions with a handful of snot and tears, and better explain Leng Yi to protect Mo Lin, if Mo Lin loses weight or suffers any grievances, he will definitely not let Leng Yi go.

Leng Yi nodded silently, he controlled his feelings, said goodbye to everyone, and walked back with tears full of tears Mo Lin, he pretended to be no longer interested, and was thinking about how to make Mo Lin happy.

"Hey, Leng Yi, don't catch a cold!"

Locke's voice came, making Leng Yi's body tremble, his heart was warm, he could no longer control the surging reluctance in his heart like a flood, and then he turned around, knelt on the ground in the direction of the "Zero Wing" crowd, and said gratefully: "Brother Locke, everyone, for a long time, I have caused you a lot of trouble, and I am grateful!!"
