PS: In today’s first update, I saw many people say that the last chapter was very watery, saying that I was perfunctory and coping. What I want to say is that yesterday I went back to my dorm to add a change, and I started writing the second change until 11 o’clock at night. Finally, the second change was finished, and I was about to write today’s first change. I was exhausted at that time. I can’t open my eyes, but in order to keep changing or delaying changes, I insisted on writing until 2:30 in the morning to finish writing today’s first update. Besides, I planned to write this kind of content a long time ago. For a long time, I read a lot of hookups and press releases, and also checked a lot of information. I don’t appreciate it. I understand that I’m a bit watery. I think it’s because I know it’s relatively watery, but if I am really perfunctory or have a bad attitude, I Will you desperately write the second update yesterday?

In the future, there will be less thankless things. I am already tired and uncomfortable sitting for a long time.

In any case, let’s add another chapter today, the emperor apologizes here.

…………I am the dividing line between the text and the PS…………

A melancholy face, wearing a very luxurious elector’s dress, hanging on his body A large number of gold and silver jewelry, wearing colorful hat feathers, about forty-year-old elector stood in front of Ryan, his face is full of arrogance and harshness, silk coat embroidered golden scorching sun and gold Wool pattern. Obviously, this is the family coat of arms of the Tuscan emperor Hou Family. Two Swords hung around his waist. A long sword is a holy sword for the emperor of the Empire. A short sword is a dwarf rune enchantment. With a silver dagger, he was very handsome, but his melancholy expression and stern poker face spoiled his facial features.

“Let me introduce, this is the newly appointed Elector of Tuscany and Grand Duke of Ivyn and Grand Count of Ivyheim, Marius-Letterdorf.” The emperor laughed. On the shoulder of Patted Marius: “The last emperor, Umberto Corleone, after serving as the emperor of Tuscany for two hundred years, finally decided to retire. Marius was his fifth prince. Sun, a powerhouse from Legendary Peak, defeated all the competitors with the double swords in his hands when competing for the marquis of the emperor within the family, and stood out. I think you will have a lot of exchanges. Marius is our family. until now The most steadfast political ally and military partner, the friendly relationship between Rickling and Ivyling can be traced back to two thousand years ago, the noble friendship between Charlemagne and Sigurd, the first elector of Tuscany.”

“It’s an honor to meet you, Lord Ryan-Makado.” Marius forced a smile: “If there is an opportunity, I must ask you about the sword technique.”

“Welcome anytime.” Ryan reached out and shook Marius, the Crown Prince of Brittany hesitated for a moment: “Crazy…Earl?”

“hahaha ~” The emperor heard the Mad Earl. This word couldn’t help but laugh. Marius didn’t respond. He replied hardly: “They asked for it.”

Of course, Ryan knows Marius, the elector of the empire. He was of course concerned about the change. After Marius-Letterdorf was selected as the first heir to the electorate, the first thing he did was to announce that Mutter would not be allowed to levy a high “calf tax” on the merchants of Ivey.

What is the calf tax?

In the homeland of halflings, Mutling, in order to protect the interests of halflings and prevent humans from occupying the homes of halflings excessively, halflings will levy a “calf tax” on the humans who enter Mutling, that is, height Humans over one meter three must pay a large amount of tax to enter the halfling town. This tax was originally intended to protect the empire’s largest granary from Muth from being re-infiltrated and regained its territory.

As everyone knows, no matter how good the starting point is, a tax will eventually become a tool for the ruling class to accumulate money as long as there is no follow-up and supervision. As halflings continue to increase their calf tax, Ai Villing, a large food-producing province and one of the richest provinces in the empire, can’t stand it. The first thing Marius was chosen as the heir was to lead the Golden Fleece Knight regiment, the Black Bear Knight regiment, and the special expeditions specific to Ivy Link. The army of children, moved towards the halfling led by Mute declares war, asking the opponent to reduce the calf tax.

As a result, the halflings did not know where they got a steam tank that was originally scrapped. They installed a trailer behind the steam tank and installed the famous halfling crucible behind the tank, relying on it. In this steam tank, the halfling and Marius fought a battle on the border. After that, Emperor Karl-Franz came out to mediate. Ivy and Mutter signed an agreement. The halfling reduced the calf tax and Marius withdrew. .

Relying on this unexpected and crazy screaming on the battlefield, personally charging performance, rough manners and bad sense of humor, Marius-Letterdorf got the nickname “Mad Earl”.

By the way, Marius-Letterdorf’s brother is Hans-Letterdorf, who is the head of the Templar Knight regiment mentioned earlier and Alfred’s immediate boss.

As for how this scrapped steam tank came from… Ryan thought that it must have nothing to do with Emilia.

No way, during the previous Tamukhan invasion, Ivey’s army was busy guarding the Black Fire Pass and did not participate. The emperor also fought against the Chaos Gang in the Brass Fortress in Hawke’s collar. These two provinces are extremely dissatisfied. During this period of time, there has been a lot of friction between the two sides, mutual hostility and declining relations.

After introducing Marius, another very strong, bear-like middle-aged man stood in front of Ryan. He was wearing a bearskin jacket and a cloak on the lake green. After the cloak, there was a sea. The big man with boats and wind and waves also appeared by the emperor’s side. His hair and beard were white, and the corners of his eyes had a lot of wrinkles. He had a long goatee hanging down to his stomach. He was like a true northern warrior. , Stubborn, tenacious, militant and fierce.

“I think you may have met, Theodoric Geyser, the current Grand Duke of Nord and the owner of the electoral power of the Nord Kingdom, Sesenmond Baron, the fear of Norsca, you have all made great achievements in the process of fighting Norsca’s invasion. Perhaps you are also very topical.” The emperor raised his glass.

“I met him.” Theodoric Gesser (in order to prevent confusion with Theodoric, Duke of Berleon, collectively referred to as Gesser from now on) has a thick voice. , He is not young anymore: “Ryan, at that time, was just a knight-errant Knight, wandering around Nord, looking for opportunities for promotion.”

“Is Harald Your Majesty’s health okay? ??” Ryan picked up the wine glass and clinked with Geisel. If Harald Your Majesty fails, the empire will lose another Sacred Domain powerhouse that can be used for a place.

“great-grandfather is getting old, and is already unable to deal with internal affairs. He is almost 300 years old this year.” Geyser’s voice was impatient: “He is retired, and now it is our turn. These youngster’s.”

Ryan thought you were over fifty this year, right? Is this still young?

However, the powerhouse of this World does have to live longer, and whether it is an imperial elector or a Duke of Bretania, when choosing his heirs, he will also pay more attention to strength. After all, heirs must live long enough to let Territory is stable.

By the way, Gaithel’s daughter Anne Taelise is the wife of the elector Boris Toddbringer.

Geisel, like his great-grandfather Harald-Frank, is a ruler who is obsessed with territorial area and especially likes to forge claims. He chooses the emperor and then publicly declares I inherited the title of Prince Marienburg from the great-grandfather, as it should be by rights, the Marienburg City Council immediately issued a statement that Geyser was also listed as an unwelcome object in Marienburg.

“It seems that you are familiar with each other.” The emperor was a little surprised. He laughed heartily: “Is it a bit presumptuous?”

“No, very It’s an honor, Carl, that you brought such a luxurious delegation this time.” Ryan felt the cold wind blowing through his body at night, and his attitude was very friendly: “I thought you would come, but didn’t expect… Brought half of the empire.”

“No, it is an empire.” Marius stretched out an index finger and pointed to the emperor: “He is the empire.”

This untimely cold joke made Ryan twitched the corners of his mouth and made the whole atmosphere instantly embarrassed. Karl-Franz laughed twice, really not knowing what to say, Geyser stuck out snorted from his nostril, his mouth Mumbled “boring southerner” and walked away with the cup.

“…” The awkward atmosphere lasted for ten seconds, Karl-Franz and Ryan, look at me, I look at you, but they don’t know how to answer this, Marie. Si was unaware of his anachronistic humor, and did not intend to speak out to resolve the embarrassment.

“Well, Ryan, I heard that you have hired a team of Olengrad Sea Soul Guards from Kieslov through the relationship with Amancio, the Estalian Merchants League. , Tell me, how did you do it.” After thinking about it, the emperor decided to change the subject. He shrugged, pretending to be relaxed: “Can you talk to me?”

“Come with me, I Let me show you something.” Ryan motioned to the emperor to follow him. Karl and Marius looked at each other and immediately followed.

The three people came to a small room inside the palace. Ryan cautiously opened a large gold box with five white enamel outer layers and golden eggs made of gold: “Look, Carl.”

“This is…Faberge egg?!” Both Karl-Franz and Marius grew their mouths in surprise: “This…this is not Keith. Is Loew’s national treasure? God, Ryan, how did you get it?!”

Ryan smiled and opened the first egg. Inside the egg was a small golden hen, a golden hen. There is also a mini crown made of diamonds and a miniature egg made of rubies. His ingenious forging skills amaze everyone. Only Karl-Franz’s Imperial Family treasure house has the same egg. That is The national gift given by the Kingdom of Kislov to the Emperor of the Empire, as a symbol of friendship, each Faberge egg is different, and it is sealed with a powerful protection magic, which can be recharged and used repeatedly.

“How did you get it, some people need money, some people need things, some people have channels, that’s how it got it.” Ryan looked at the five Faberge eggs with satisfaction, he said with a faint smile “Amancio has a way. As long as there is enough money, Kislev is now in urgent need of funds to pay pensions and rebuild the army that has suffered heavy losses. Kataline Your Majesty’s magic research also requires a lot of expenses, and the kingdom cannot provide that many taxes. Yes, money is needed to make up for the financial burden. This is how the Easter eggs come, and the Sea Soul Guard also comes like this. There are some things we can’t do on the surface, but privately, the Tsar’s Imperial Family is willing to transfer their national treasures, as long as the price is right. There is nothing that cannot be sold. Amancio has a list in his hand.”

“Oh! Charlemagne is here, Helena will like this.” Karl Franz understood, and the emperor smiled happily. “Helena will like this. I want to tell Amancio and let him give me the whole one.”

“I want one too, no, two!” Marius’ eyes lit up. There were only these five easter eggs left in the eyes of Mad Earl. Ryan thought this was what I wanted to give to the lady and Su Liya. What did it have to do with you, so Ryan immediately closed the treasure chest and the three of them got out of the room. Coming out of it, the emperor thought for a while, and asked tentatively: “So, you are also expeditioning to Bafeng Mountain for the endless wealth in it?”

“Knights always need a reason for expedition.” Ryan did not answer positively. Karl-Franz’s question: “King Bellegar has a good reason, and he helped us a lot.”

“Blackheart Rip is the prince of the frontier you support?” Marius asked quite directly. Said: “I heard his name more than once in Aiweiling. He seems to have a stable and sufficient source of troops, and he can obtain a large amount of goods from Sea Sect at any time. The mercenary leader is impossible to do without the support of him. Now I have three towns and a dozen villages, and more than 3,000 swords.”

“Little Bird? Maybe, who knows?” Ryan seems right but actually isn’t He said: “This time he will come to the throne, you can ask him when the time comes?”

Speaking of which, the emperor and Marius know it well, Karl-Franz is a little bit After thinking for a while, he felt that the empire didn’t have the energy to take care of the frontier prince’s affairs. He laughed a few times, stopped a Midon leader wearing a fur coat and a felt hat, and said to Ryan, “That’s right. , Ryan, I almost forgot, this time I want to introduce you to an imperial hero, my right-hand man.”

“Marshal of the imperial hunter, Marcus Wolfhart!”

The King of Curona While there was a lively state banquet and cocktail party in the palace, under the dark night sky, another group of visitors also approached the capital of the Knight Kingdom along the ancient road.

The Grand Duke of Marienburg, Schultz, led his bodyguards and Marienburg’s elite pioneer cavalry troops, the “Edge Rangers”, along the road to Kurona, and arrived in Kurona. Outskirts of the city.

Ten years of time did not seem to have left any traces on Van der Guber-Schultz’s body. He took a few very tall people in a small place in the Kurona Wilderness. On the hills, looking at the splendid city, as today is welcoming the arrival of the imperial emperor, Kurona is brightly lit, like a civilization beacon, illuminating the nearby dark plains.

“Your Majesty, sir, we are here.”

“Very good.”
