It was noon on the third day when we returned to the capital......

As in Baja City, the tributary procession, escorted by Sean, was warmly welcomed by the people of the capital, and the festive atmosphere in the city was quite strong.

Previously, at Sean's suggestion, the workers could take a break during the three days of the festival, so there were a lot of people on the streets...... Listening to his name all the way into the palace, he also paid a little more attention to the favorability of the crowds on both sides of the street.

There are no people who are too low, which at least proves that the capital is safe for the time being.

He took the diplomat of Kserk to the main hall, and it was only then that Sean noticed that Seriya and Mudan had actually returned!

It's fast.

I came back a few days after I went out.

No matter how easy the rescue work is, it is not so simple, it is estimated that it will take seven or eight days.

......

The Sun King, on the high position of the main hall, praised his actions before turning his head to look at Pike and the others.

"You're an official from Kesselk?"

"Yes, Your Majesty the High King, our Emperor Ser has always been very concerned about the communication with Jagon, especially the admiration for the High King...... This year, he ordered us to bring special products from some countries to meet the High King. ”

The words of the official always have to blow a few waves, anyway, it is estimated that no one present has been to such a far country, so whatever you say.

Sean had completed his mission and walked alone from the edge of the stairs to his position.

At this time, everyone's eyes in the hall were focused on Pike in the field, but they didn't pay much attention to themselves.

Rise

I happened to see Seriya and Mu Dan come over.

"Brother has worked hard this time. ”

Keep the conversation low so that no one else can hear it.

Sometimes Sean thinks that this is the design of the whole hall, and the speech in the center can be heard in almost the whole hall, but there is a slight arched structure where the princes are located, and I am afraid that no one can hear the speech here except for a few ministers in the front row.

"You're also lucky, why did you come back so early?"

After all, they are all brothers and sisters, and as long as the Sun King reigns for a day, the three of them will still communicate like this...... Although the favorability is [neutral], and although the emotions are [questioning!] and [curious!] when speaking.

"I heard about the tributary procession being hijacked by robbers, so I hurried back, and I asked some people to finish the finishing work there. ”

"I also heard about it......"

Seriya followed Mu Dan and the two said.

"I see, that's a blessing for you. "No matter what, Sean, as the eldest brother, will say these things.

"Did my brother find any clues about the robbers?"

Seria asked suddenly.

"I heard that all the deployments in the central cities were made according to my brother's request. ”

At this time, Sean understood the reason why the two came back, the matter of the tributary team being robbed had spread throughout the country in one day, maybe the entire desert area knew about it, if the person in charge of this matter was himself, as long as he found the enemy, then there was no doubt that he would get a much higher evaluation than what the two of them went to rescue.

Tut~

Really......

I remember that when I came, the two of them had a good temperament, and I didn't know who the person who guided Seriya and Mu Dan was, and they had become so utilitarian in just a few months.

"There are no results yet, but I have found some clues that the other party once wanted to use mercenaries to remnants of the team that grabbed tribute. ”

While the three of them were chatting, the conversation in the audience also happened to be the time to sort out the history of the relationship between the two countries......

Pike continues to show goodwill to the Sun King, and as a diplomat, his opinion represents that of the majority of the Kesselk nation.

Since Jagon officially incorporated Dansu Port, another large port in the south, into the territory a few months ago, its maritime trade position has been far ahead of any other country in Edak, and it can be said that trade with Jagon already represents trade with the desert countries, so Pike hopes to expand the scale of trade between the two countries and reduce tariffs, which will be conducive to the exchange of people between the two countries.

He even wished to conclude an alliance of maritime cooperation between the two countries on behalf of Emperor Serre, in order to prevent possible third-party interference, piracy, and so on.

Just like the robbers this time!

Even in a country like Jagon, accidents happen**.

Of course, this kind of thing will be agreed to by the Sun King first, and then the detailed rules will be slowly discussed with the ministers before they are introduced......

Sean listened to the suggestions of the two countries on the side, and suddenly asked curiously.

"Is there any other maritime power on the southern continent besides Kesselk?" she said, looking at Seria beside her.

That's a question they'll answer.

"There are a few, but I don't know exactly what they're capable of...... If you want to know, you might as well ask Master Griffin. ”

It seems that even the prince and princess of Jagon do not understand this knowledge.

This generation of the country is strong enough to be proud of the entire Aidak region, and slowly understands less of the outside world, which is also Sean's most profound experience in the past few months.

Seeing that Pike's conversation with the Sun King has ended, and at the end, the Sun King also said that he will definitely track down the robbers, find the murderer, and avenge the death of another diplomat.

This matter is already related to the face of the country of Jagon, as well as the reputation in other countries for a period of time in the future, even if you can't find it, you have to find it...... If it's really difficult, I'll talk about it then.

Sean estimates that in the end, he should dispose of those relevant personnel who have been caught in public, otherwise how to convince the public in the future.

......

After sending Pike away for the time being, the Sun King once again summoned the three princes and princesses to his bedchamber for the purpose of hearing the news that had been gathered.

"Tell me about the recent investigation, Sean. ”

All the information received in the past few days was handed over to the other party, but Sean deliberately hid the part of the ancient god believers.

"I asked the cities in the central region to expand the search, and I did find a lot of useful information, including the arrest of one of the people involved in the robbery, which is what they confessed......"

There are indeed mercenary group disguisers in the bandit team.

Moreover, so many people fought with the tributary team, and it was inevitable that there would be injured people, and it was by relying on this requirement that many mercenaries who participated at that time were found.

"Hmph, these mercenaries are too free with them on weekdays, and they dare to fight the idea of tribute. The Sun King said dissatisfiedly.

"Father, if we take this opportunity to issue a request for tighter control, otherwise they may not know what will happen to them next time. ”

"It's time to tighten the control!"

"Sean, what do you think?" suddenly asked again.
