Chapter Seventy-Three: Emperor Renault
In the Renault Palace, in a palace in the northeast corner, there is a man sitting on the top of the golden palace at this moment, reading some official documents.
This is a middle-aged man, with a good appearance, wearing an imperial robe and a dragon crown, and his gestures are faintly revealing a kingly domineering, and his speed of reviewing official documents is very fast, which can almost be said to be clear at a glance, which may be a habit he has developed over the years.
After a while, the man in the imperial robe finished all the recitals, and after taking a breath of relief, he looked at the sky outside the main hall, it was almost noon, the scorching sun was in the sky, shining on the whole sky, the man looked at the scenery outside, was slightly stunned, and said to himself, "Two o'clock in the afternoon, it's almost here!"
His brows furrowed slightly, he didn't know what he was thinking, and after a while, he withdrew his gaze, looked at the empty hall, and said lightly, "Nirvana, do you think it's really good for me to let the God King Alliance destroy the Feng family like this?"
As soon as the words fell, a black shadow suddenly appeared on the side of the case where the man was reviewing the official document, bowed to the man, and replied, "I don't understand the king's affairs, but as long as it is the king's decision, whether it is right or wrong, I will implement it to the end." β
Hearing this, the man glanced at the black shadow on the lower side, and then smiled rarely, "Are all of you in the Assassin family like this, once you decide to be loyal to someone, you will follow them for life, until you die." β
The shadow didn't speak, but it acquiesced to the man's meaning.
"That's really the case...... But to be honest, I feel much more at ease with you all the time. The man stood up, with a hint of emotion on his face, "Now this country is experiencing great changes, the king is not a king, the minister is not a minister, if it is still allowed to develop as before, I am afraid that the fall of the empire will not be far away." β
Although the man's expression was calm, he could see a faint worry in his eyes, because he was the seventh emperor of the Renault Empire, Viok Reno.
It has been twenty-three years since Vioc Reynaud came to power, and the era of his reign can be said to be the most chaotic era in the history of Renault's empire, and the degree of chaos is even greater than that of the beginning of Renault's founding.
To the beginning of his reign, multi-national wars occurred frequently, the first year of his ascension to the throne encountered the invasion of 600,000 troops of the southern Lingguo Pol Empire, and finally repelled it, only a year later, Pol launched the Mingtian Mutiny, trying to occupy the entire southern region of the Renault Empire, and it took eight years of resistance to quell the war, and Fengchen's father Feng Yuntian also became famous in this war, and finally became the king of Zhennan Domain.
But the good times did not last long, and the subsequent chaos of the five countries, the coup d'Γ©tat of the Varino country, the border disputes of the nine countries, and various major wars occurred one after another, it can be said that up to now, in the twenty-three years of Viok's rule, it has been less than three years that can really be regarded as peaceful, and it is not even a fraction of the war.
However, because of this, the so-called troubled times create heroes, and there will only be one or two high-ranking masters at most in other eras, but in this era, it can be described as a group of heroes, first the earliest Zhongyu Wang Lianrong, who is known as a generation of heroes, and then the grassroots rise of Zhennan Domain King Fengyuntian, and then the majestic Bauhinia King Chuyang, to the unbeatable God-King Alliance!
Almost every once in a while, a person or shili will appear to represent the Renault Empire.
And the royal family, which is obviously in power, can only play a supporting role forever, and sometimes it is not even a supporting role, how can this not make the Renault royal family angry.
Therefore, the royal senate has ordered the imperial lord Viok to control the development of the empire and the cult of personality several times, but he has always ignored it and let it develop freely, not knowing what is going on in his heart.
"Although the king said so, he actually had a plan in his heart!" said the black shadow in a low voice, still not looking up.
Viok turned to face the black shadow, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and the faint worry in his eyes completely disappeared, "Well, because I like this country." β
"Many people in the empire say that I am weak, and as a dignified lord, I am still afraid of the nobles below, but how do they know that if there was no king of the Middle Regions back then, this country would have ceased to exist, let alone the distinction between the noble and the low! Besides, is there really anyone in this country that I can't kill?"
As he spoke, Viok looked at the dark shadow, and just let his subordinates from the Assassin family take action, it is estimated that no one in the empire will be able to stop his assassination.
After all, the family of assassins, that is an ancient family that has been inherited for thousands of years, the first real assassination in the mainland, and one of the super shili with transcendent status in the Heavenly Spirit Continent!
Truth be told, Viok still hasn't figured out why the Assassin named Nirvana chose himself to be his master!
The Black Shadow suddenly found Victor one day a few years ago, and has been following him ever since......
"Your ......"
Nirvana was about to speak, but the words suddenly froze, and then the black shadow suddenly disappeared in place, leaving only a whisper in the hall, "Someone." β
Then there was no more movement.
Viok straightened his posture when he heard this, and walked back to his seat and sat down again.
Sure enough, not long after, a guard reported that someone had come to meet him, but when Viok asked who the person who came was, Rao was a calm character who had been on the throne for a long time, and his face flashed a trace of surprise, because it was Fengchen, the son of Fengyuntian, the heir of the king of Zhennan Regions who had been rumored to have been dead for three years, who had come to meet him!
The guards also made it clear that Duke Xinde came with Fengchen.
Although Viok was surprised, after all, he had been the emperor for so many years, and he had regained his previous calm in just a moment, and now the Feng family was in an eventful time, and Fengchen appeared at this time and wanted to see him, he didn't have to think about it and knew what he was going to do.
However, Viok didn't want to mess up the Feng family at will, and after a little hesitation, he still ordered Fengchen to come in first.
After a while, Fengchen walked in, although he was a human in two lives, but it was the first time to step into the palace, if this was usual, he would definitely be curious about all kinds of things, but now he is not in the mood at all, this is all to blame for the delay of Desa Xinde, and now the deadline for the God King Alliance to attack the Feng family is imminent, he has no time, he must use the fastest speed to persuade the Renault Emperor to ensure that the Feng family is comprehensive.
Fengchen bowed to Viok, this is the unique etiquette of the prince to face the emperor, he looked at the face of Viok without the slightest impression, thinking that this emperor could not have any relationship with his previous self.
Viok smiled and signaled that Fengchen didn't need to be polite, then got up and came to Fengchen, chatting with him, saying that Fengchen had hugged Fengchen when he was a child, what had Fengchen done in the three years since he disappeared, etc......
But Feng Chen completely ignored Wei Ok deliberately changing the topic, and came up and directly stated his purpose, wanting the royal family to intervene in the struggle between the God King Alliance and the Feng family and protect the Feng family, and Wei Ok is not a fool, seeing Feng Chen so directly expressed his request to himself, he also said his meaning more clearly, this is a struggle between the two parties, and it is indeed the Feng family who went to the Chu family to kill people first, even if he is the emperor, it is not easy for him to intervene in the battle between the two princely families at will, and the Feng family wants to get out of this war or find another wayοΌ
Although Victor said this, he actually knew in his heart that now in addition to the royal family, there was also a shili in the Renault Empire that could allow the Feng family to escape in this catastrophe. Letting Fengchen figure out his own way actually means letting the Feng family destroy itself.
But this is also no way, the family struggle for survival of the fittest is common sense, it is impossible for him as the emperor of the empire to even interfere in this kind of thing, even if Fengyuntian did make great achievements for the empire back then, but now that everyone is dead, for the royal family, the Feng family has lost its use value, and the royal family will naturally not offend a more powerful family for a family that is about to be destroyed.
Fengchen saw that Viok was resolute, and he had already expected that he would not do anything thankless, but he had already prepared, and immediately took out the bargaining chips that had been prepared for this negotiation early in the morning, and the main selection quota of Dogming Dao Academy.
Viok was startled, and then his eyes widened suddenly, and he even wondered if his ears had heard it wrong, this was the Dogming Dao Academy!
It is one of the eight colleges and universities located at the pinnacle of the continent, and those who can successfully graduate from it can at least become the lord of the first domain, and it will not be easy to inherit this second-class imperial throne of themselves in the future.
However, Viok is also an expert in negotiation and he can't fully trust Fengchen, he must learn more information from Fengchen, and although a number of regular candidates for the Dogming Dao Academy are enough for the royal family to help the Feng family this time, but looking at the random way Fengchen put forward the conditions, Viok believes that he definitely still has several positive selection places, so at the same time he began to follow Fengchen step by step, trying to maximize the benefits.
Fengchen also smiled when he saw that Viokken was negotiating terms with him, because this at least affirmed that this condition was tempting to him, and he was willing to help the Feng family, and now it was just a matter of how many conditions he wanted.
Fengchen didn't say his bottom line at first, which left the two sides with room to negotiate, and after a full quarter of an hour of bargaining, Fengchen finally reached a consensus with Viok.
First of all, the royal family, not only to keep the Feng family in this battle, but also to be responsible for guarding the Feng family in the name of the royal family for two years, and give Fengchen a grace period of two years, so that he can inherit the title of his father, the king of the southern region of Fengyun Tianzhen, of course, the expenses required for Fengchen's study this time are naturally borne by the royal family.
Then there is Fengchen, he needs to meet two conditions of the royal family, first, he must ensure that the Renault royal family is given two students of the Dogming Dao Academy and must be enrolled within half a year, and second, he must be able to ensure the safety of the two students selected by the royal family and at least one of them can graduate from the Dogming Dao Academy.
In addition, if the royal family and Fengchen violate any of the conditions of both parties, the violated party can unilaterally tear up the agreement and bear the consequences.
After the two reached an agreement, they then talked casually for a few words, Fengchen really admired Desa Xinde at this time, and he didn't ask any of the questions he was worried about, but Viok almost hit the place that Desa Xinde paid attention to.
Zuihou, Viok immediately drafted an edict and handed it to Fengchen, promising him that all the royal troops and five hundred royal elite troops in the Southern Regions would arrive at Feng's house through the teleportation array before two o'clock in the afternoon.
After thanking Viok, Fengchen took his leave and turned to leave the palace.
He returned to the royal teleportation array in front of the palace, where Desa Xinde was waiting for him, and when he saw Fengchen coming, Desa put away his fan and asked calmly, "Is it negotiated?"
"En" Fengchen responded.
"Does the Emperor have any evidence that you have entered the Dogming Dao Academy?" Desa asked again.
"Nope. β
Fengchen shook his head.
"That's right...... Let's go, the next stop is to go to Fengjia. β
Desa Xinde pondered for a moment, then smiled lightly and walked into the teleportation array first.
Feng Chen didn't understand what he was laughing at, but he wasn't in the mood to think about it, he looked down at the teleportation array that was close at hand, and in an instant, endless emotions surged into his heart, and the strongest and most emotional among them was one.
"It's been three years, and I'm finally going home. β
