Chapter 138: Marriage
The three young men staggered to the imperial study with sweat, although the three of them were only two meters away from the person on the opposite side of the table, no one dared to raise their heads to look at them, and the man sitting straight on the throne had been looking at the file in his hand, while Lorraine stood quietly on his side, without saying a word.
The floor of the imperial study is covered with a luxurious carpet, and the lines on it are the empire of the Kotler Empire, this discovery shocked the three of them, using a precious carpet to make a map, only the royal family can have such luxury, and it can also be seen that the royal family pays attention to the empire.
After a long time, the man finally put down the file in his hand, raised his head and glanced at the three of them, his eyes were like torches, making the three people feel as if their bodies were penetrated, and their bodies couldn't help but tremble slightly, but soon their eyes were firmly fixed on Kate, because the owner of the eyes found that Kate's reaction was the smallest, so he became interested, Kate felt the pressure again, sweat soaked her underwear again, this time the pressure was different from just now, if it was irresistible to the power of the mountains just now, then now this pressure is the power of the sea to make people desperate, Kate feels that she is a sail boat in the monstrous waves, and can only let the wind and rain waves beat this not solid hull, slowly waiting for the moment when the destruction comes.
When Kate struggled to resist, a light cough broke the calm in the imperial study, and the pressure exerted on Kate disappeared instantly, and the man shifted his gaze to Lorraine, compared to the three young people, Lorraine looked as usual, except for the slight shaking of his body when he first made contact, there was no more abnormal reaction left.
"Lorraine, is this the outstanding talent of the three families you want to recommend?" The voice was flat but full of majesty, hearing this, the three of them couldn't help but sink their heads lower, this sentence was said calmly, but the meaning of the words was full of disappointment.
"Yes, Your Majesty. Lorraine bowed slightly sideways and said respectfully, the man nodded, looked at the three of them again and said, "All look up, has the dignity of the Sweet family been eaten by dogs?" A simple question, but the three of them involuntarily stood up straight, and it was at this time that Kate saw the appearance of the person in front of him clearly.
The facial lines are stiff, the facial features are like knives, the eyes are sharp, a dark blue hair is draped behind him casually, the sword eyebrows are not angry and arrogant, although sitting on the throne makes people have to look up, Kate is the second time to feel the majesty of this king, but his reaction is still very strong, as for Rollin and Brie, it is not much better.
"It's really talent! can be reused, especially him!" the finger pointed at Brie!
Kate and Rollin didn't expect Brie to be recognized, but Brie's performance just now was not good, more precisely, it was extremely bad, how did he become the most available talent? The two of them looked at Brie with a sluggish face in surprise, obviously he didn't expect the emperor to actually refer to him, he actually opened his mouth subconsciously, and hurriedly covered his mouth after waking up, but the hand with the magic crystal ring had been taken back.
Lorraine also looked puzzled, but he had been an official for many years, and he naturally knew when to shut up, so he just gave Brie a look, and then said respectfully: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" Brie only reacted at this time, knelt down on one knee and thanked him, Phil Kotler raised his hand Brie's body involuntarily stood up, and then carefully looked at Brie's appearance, feeling the momentum he exuded, and the emperor nodded with satisfaction.
"As for these two, it's not bad, the Sweet family really has three talents, the one in the middle is called Luo Lin, the second prince has mentioned you many times, saying that you are not only good-looking, but also talented, I read it today, Wu'er didn't tell a lie. Luo Lin reacted quickly, and directly knelt down and saluted, and was also helped up by His Majesty the Emperor in the air.
In the end, everyone's eyes fell on Kate, Phil Kotler looked at Kate but did not speak immediately, but looked at him with his hand on his temple, Kate was flustered at first and then somehow regained her calm, seeing Kate adjust her mood so quickly, the emperor couldn't help but show a flash of surprise, and after thinking for a while, he finally spoke: "Kate, your contribution to the empire is very great, compared to yesterday Lorraine has said about the princess's marriage, do you have any intentions?"
As soon as these words came out, not to mention the three young men, even Lorraine looked surprised and showed a look of horror behind him, thinking about yesterday's events, he didn't seem to have time to say it, secretly scolded himself for being an old fool, thinking about bringing people over, but forgot to tell them that bringing them over was actually to choose a colt, but now the emperor has proposed that if Kate said that she missed her mouth, then she would inevitably be scolded, so standing behind the emperor, he gave Kate a look again and again, hoping to understand.
Kate first opened her mouth and didn't know how to answer, and then saw her grandfather give her a look, and immediately understood that if it wasn't for the dinner last night, it was estimated that she would have said it, it turned out that the old man brought people over to let the emperor choose a son-in-law, Kate didn't speak, but the emperor hesitated, and looked back at the Chancellor of the Exchequer, but he didn't see anything, so he had to look at Kate again.
"The princess is sixteen years old this year, and when you reach the age of marriage, I see that you have a firm heart and must be loyal to love, so I hope to ......" The emperor was forced to stop before he finished speaking, not because someone dared to interrupt him at the risk of death, but because he saw a trace of strangeness in Kate's eyes, as he said, Kate must be a single-minded man, and the princess will not be wronged if he follows him, but just when he just said the four words of loyalty, he suddenly found that Kate's gaze had a moment of dodge, and he had seen through it, so there was only one thing to be sure.
"Kate, you already have a sweetheart?"
Nodding subconsciously, Kate woke up suddenly, and then saw that the emperor's face was already a little more angry, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty forgive me, I ...... this matter Yes, I already have a sweetheart, and I still want His Majesty's permission. ”
Kate's sudden change of words made Lorraine breathe a sigh of relief, if Kate said that he hadn't reported it yet, then it would mean that the Chancellor of the Exchequer did not say anything about the marriage of the Princess, and brought someone over if he didn't say it, which swept the face of the royal family, and there may be extermination, but the Chancellor of the Exchequer understands that his reprimand today is a sure thing, but this is also the best result.
The emperor nodded and said: "Marriage needs to be happy with each other, since this is the case, I will not force it, the princess has just turned sixteen years old, and the time is still long, I will choose another son-in-law." A sentence made Kate breathe, but Brie and Rollin were gloomy, it was obvious that the emperor had taken a fancy to Kate, and Kate had a sweetheart, the emperor's sentence of choosing another son-in-law directly sealed the possibility of two people becoming colts, and the eyes of the two people were all staring at Kate, and the resentment in their eyes was naturally self-evident.
Kate didn't expect the emperor to say such a thing, and immediately responded: "Your Majesty, Brie and Rollin of the Sweet family are both family elites, adhering to the courtesy of nobility, with outstanding demeanor, far surpassing Kate, the two will definitely be the pillars of the empire, please think twice." After saying that, Kate immediately knelt down and saluted, making everyone present stunned.
Phil Kotler was also surprised, in fact, he was really optimistic about Kate, as for the other two Sweet family talents, he was not optimistic, but felt that it was not suitable, Kate's plea was clearly to help his two brothers, in fact, to help himself, is this kind of person not suitable for the princess?
The emperor bowed his head and pondered, Kate knelt on the ground, Rollin and Brie looked at Kate's expression softened slightly, at least Kate spoke for the two people, even if it didn't become two people, it was not easy to blame him, but what did the emperor think?
After a long time, Phil Kotler sighed and waved his hand to help Kate up out of thin air and said: "This matter is postponed and discussed, Lorraine, Kate stays, and the rest of the people wait for a hundred steps to avoid." The Emperor ordered the guards and maids in the imperial study to rush out, and Rollin and Brie followed closely behind and waited at the border cordon a hundred paces away.
Lorraine motioned to Kate to close the door of the imperial study, and then the emperor asked Kate to find a place to sit down, and when Kate sat down, he said straight to the point: "You still have the image magic crystal about the Orc Empire in your hand?"
"Yes, Your Majesty. ”
"What was recorded?The last Orc Empire tournament let the Empire know the current situation of the Orcs, and you have also been in the Orc Empire for a long time, what have you gained?"
Kate looked at the emperor with some surprise, as if the emperor in front of her had changed into a person, but that compelling majesty still filled the entire imperial study, Kate's heart was awe-inspiring, and she was silent for a moment to sort out her thoughts and said: "The magic crystal records the ordinary life of the orc empire, including architecture, law, art, medical skills, etc., in the process of staying in the orc empire, I feel a lot of things different from the empire, and the current orc empire is very powerful!"
When he heard this word, the king opposite Kate frowned obviously, as the head of a country, hearing words from others that did not praise his strength, he would be more or less unhappy, and it should be considered more restrained if he did not get angry immediately.
"Do you know the current situation between the Empire and the Orc Empire?" the Emperor asked, standing up, and Kai nodded to indicate that he knew.
"According to our reconnaissance, the orc empire has only gathered more than 200,000 troops in the Kadan Hills realm, and Wu'er will personally lead an army of 600,000 to win?" The words were still very calm, but Kate felt the restrained anger in the heart of the king in front of him, and for a while he didn't know how to answer, and looked at Lorraine in the hope of getting any help from him, but Lorraine's helpless eyes showed that he had no choice.
Kate, who couldn't get help, just had to figure out a way for herself, and after weighing the price of lying and not lying, Kate raised her head and said in a firm tone: "Your Majesty, even if you cut off my head in anger, I must tell the truth, even if the 600,000 army is a victory, it is a tragic victory, and the dominance of this war has not been in the hands of the empire from the beginning!"
