Chapter 435 Exactly what I want (33)

The Dark Moon turmoil decades ago caused a complete reshuffle of the forces within the Setar Empire.

The first emperor, the black king Inaiga II, and the empire's first knight, Hilliard, were assassinated by mysterious forces in the palace of the imperial capital.Of course, the mysterious force is not mysterious, but it must be mysterious.

In short, on that night, the factions loyal to the emperor fought desperately with the mysterious forces. When the moon was covered by dark clouds, the bright source quality reflected the entire surrounding area of ​​the imperial capital like daylight.

As a result, the late emperor passed away, and all the blood descendants of the royal family including the crown prince died... Along with him, almost all the high-end combat power of the mysterious forces and half of the imperial capital were buried.

Today's His Majesty, the Landkeeper Axel, defeated many other brothers and sisters, ascended the throne in the imperial capital, and succeeded to the throne, but discovered a rather funny and quite sad fact.

That is... an empire that was supposed to be weak, dilapidated, and completely in decline...

It works better.

Yes.

A group of ministers died, a group of nobles died, a group of high-ranking sublimators died, important court officials who were too small to count as a brigade, the imperial humerus, and a large number of elite scholars died, and God knows how to count , It is estimated that the big man who needs to use the stack.

There is a huge gap in the core ruling class of the empire-the entire country should be completely unable to function.

But when the keeper Axel thought he was going to inherit a pile of mess... the new emperor was shocked to find that what was left to him was not a mess, but an empty ruin.

It is still unbelievable that the government order is smooth, and what he says is a blank ruin.

——The self-help organizations that appeared in the imperial capital, as well as the low-level officials who were at a loss and could only do their best to maintain stability, were waiting for him, the emperor, to settle in and give orders.

What big sublimation family, what court aristocratic group, what imperial capital school, what big chamber of commerce and their backers, and God knows which local nobles supported the spokesmen in the imperial capital—these people died completely, even if there were a few left. Small fish and shrimp were also crushed by Axel himself.

The government affairs team he brought back from the Eastern Territory managed to absorb a lot of talents from the people after barely taking office...

This is also thanks to the universal education of the late emperor.

And these people have become a new batch of noble families, as well as officials and ministers.

yes.yes.

The empire lost its control over the local nobles in various places. The two grand dukes who had been suppressed by Inaiga II regained their spirits again, and many local nobles faintly became local emperors entrenched in their lairs.

In these places, decrees are always obeyed and violated.

But so what?The area directly under the imperial capital is so vast, it is still better than many countries on the land of Terra.

The new emperor, Axel, just use this ruin without any internal constraints, almost without any intrigue, and without anyone holding back or engaging in internal friction in a short period of time...

defended the frontiers of the empire.

Even decades later, the power of the imperial capital can still reach all over the place, making all the nobles completely convinced.At least outwardly surrender.

It sounds ridiculous, and it's also funny to say, but the meaning behind it still made the second prince shake his head slightly: [What kind of pressure grandpa was under back then is indeed something that us younger generations can't imagine. Others may worship, maybe Will laugh at it, maybe even secretly gritted its teeth and hated it...but only when you get close to that seat will you know what a great emperor is]

[But you are right, no matter whether the Grant family and the Ciehalorvo family are the secret hands of grandpa, they are now our strength]

"Not yet. But in the future."

The old general turned his head and looked at the moonlight outside the window, his expression was a little dazed: "And without me. Your Highness. I am still His Majesty's knight, but I know... the time is coming, I have to choose one."

[I understand, I'm not a big brother or a big sister, I'm not that aggressive]

The second prince smiled: [Father has become more and more reclusive recently, grandpa left too much inheritance, he is a little obsessed - we have to share his worries, don't we? 】

The Marquis of Barton didn't answer, he was silent for a while, and then said: "The Laian family has been expelled. But the Laian collar still exists, and the mountain people will have opinions, but Nanling cannot be chaotic."

[Give them Huahai, and let Man Ya clean up the mess.He has benefited, and he has to give something in return. I want news about the Canaan Moore Labyrinth.Baisen Dragon God and Kalan Gulong, I will not let go]

The second prince also caught up with the topic, and his mind shrank: [As for the rest of the Leian collar, several knight collars can be divided, and half of them will be given to knights with the blood of the mountain people, let them gag]

[As for the rest, I think we can leave a copy for our little knight]

"Him? It's too early."

The Marquis of Barton was a little surprised. His pupils flickered and focused, and he looked at Ian who was in the armory, following a knight who was choosing a suitable armor and sword: "Your Highness, you said that you want him to be a patrol knight. It's not a job that can stay in the territory all the time, even if he becomes the second level."

[But no one said no, right? 】

The voice of the second prince reveals a trace of indifference:【This child’s character, in my opinion, belongs to the kind of bird that doesn’t want to go back after going out... The nest in Port Harrison is not strong enough. He has to build his own nest before he thinks about it. to homing]

[You don't want the geniuses from Nanling to go to other provinces, so why not tie them up with a knight collar? 】

"He will definitely be able to level two before the age of 20, or even before."

The Marquis of Barton narrowed his eyes, and the old general also began to think about this possibility: "I just feel that I am too young and have no qualifications... This is too eye-catching."

【He will have qualifications】

And Xiaoniao, who was about to disappear, said firmly: [Don't worry about this, General...]

【He will have it】

At the same time, Ian doesn't know that his future has been arranged...

Of course not.

There was a water-colored halo in his eyes, and the young man looked around in the armory, as if he was just checking the quality of the armor, and stroked it from time to time to determine its quality.

But in fact, he looked towards the hall where the Marquis of Barton was.

"The fourth energy level... silver brilliance..."

Ian murmured to himself, and his expression came to a sudden: "Originally, I thought it was a high-level sublimation object carried by the Marquis of Barton. Didn't I expect it to be a heart light body similar to Master Oak?"

"Which big shot followed me again? Ha, there's no need to guess. Apart from the influence of Isengard's royal blood, where else is the fourth person who can have a relationship with the Marquis of Barton?" energy level?"

——It’s just that I don’t know which prince or princess it is.

No.Ian thought for a while, and he felt that he already knew who the other party was.

——The other party must be the same as Mrs. Ellen, the other half of the family has a symbiotic parasitic blood.

The blood of the wife's family is 'Imitation Yeying', and the daughter also inherited the royal family of Imitation Yeying's blood.

Second Prince Mikael Setar.

Only he, who probably also knew about the conspiracy of Echo by the Defender Axel, would have the leisure to come over to pay attention to him, and even mention himself by the Marquis of Barton!
——Among them, it is estimated that Master Gesai is helping to thread the needle.

Such attention is actually quite dangerous for me... but it also means huge benefits.

The psychic light in his eyes slowly dimmed, and Ian smiled.

He raised his hand and pointed to a pair of armor in front of him: "That's all."

"That's exactly what I want."
