rise of empire total war

Chapter 483

"I am the Emperor of Rome, the King of Kings!"

Looking around, there are all black double-headed eagle flags. Richard, who is dressed as a king, can't help but want to laugh when he sees all this. After so many years, he finally waited until this day, and finally he was able to become the emperor justifiably. up!
However, before he was happy for a long time, Richard felt his body being shaken for a while. He frowned and wanted to push the person who shook him away, but when he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was Stephanie's dissatisfied expression face.

"What, what's wrong?"

Richard swallowed, swallowed the scolding that came to his mouth, and said softly: "Honey, what's wrong with you?"

"What's wrong with me?" Stephanie stared at him angrily, touched a certain painful place on her body, and said, "Can you sleep better, you hit me several times, and woke me up!"

"Ah?" Richard was stunned for a moment, completely unaware of what had happened, but he was completely confused, and his strong desire to survive still made him hug his wife and comfort him: "Honey, I was wrong, I won't do it next time." Dare."

No matter what happens, it is always right to admit your mistakes first, and this principle applies no matter on Earth or in another world.

Seeing Richard taking the initiative to apologize, Stephanie's dissatisfied expression softened. She hummed a few times, pushed Richard symbolically, and spat: "Don't hug me, it hurts me to death."

"Shall I brag to you?" Richard tentatively asked.

"Blow it?" Although she was used to some words that she didn't understand from Richard's mouth, Stephanie still couldn't help but want to hit him, "What do you mean by blow, tell me."

"It means blowing." In front of the person he likes, even though he has been in a high position for more than ten years, Richard is still like a child. While explaining, he pulled Stephanie's painful part out of the quilt and put In front of himself, and then gently blew on the exposed skin.

Stephanie only felt a cool breeze blowing over the painful area, and the pain was much relieved. Looking at Richard's gentle movements, she couldn't help but blush, right down to her ears.After Richard finished blowing, he raised his head and looked at her, but asked in surprise: "Stephanie, why is your face so red? Is it too hot?"

"..."

Stephanie retracted her shyness just now.

She took a deep breath, ruthlessly pushed him off the bed, and said: "You should get up, as a king, you shouldn't stay in bed!"

Richard: "????" Where did I offend her?
……

After washing up, Richard sat in his study in casual clothes, and read the memorial sent by the steward of the palace. Because it was just a few simple things, he quickly finished reading it, and put the memorial beside the desk.Envoys from various countries returned to their motherland this morning to report to their sovereign what happened here. Although Richard didn't know their choice, he still ordered the legions to prepare for battle in advance and transport ammunition and food to the front line.

Richard does not want to fight an unprepared battle, as long as the army is ready for battle within this month, then no matter what answers the countries give, Richard will be invincible one month later.

Walking out of the study room, the sound of children playing faintly pierced through the depths of the corridor. Richard's slightly frowning brows relaxed unconsciously after hearing this sound. In order to make Frederick and Elizabeth's childhood happy, Richard called The heirs of nobles of similar age came to accompany them in the palace. This was actually a plan for Frederick's future. The king's ascension to the throne could not be done without the support of some loyal nobles.

Unlike Richard, Frederick did not have the support of Goldfinger's system, so he could only rely on Richard's legacy and the support of secular nobles to maintain his rule.Because Richard is firmly in the hands of the army loyal to him, he can secure the position of king even without the support of the nobles, but Frederick is different. He does not know whether the system army will maintain his son after his death. Without the support of the army, it is necessary to win over those nobles.

Even those nobles are not strong.

Shaking his head and putting this matter behind him, Richard only felt that he might have thought too far. Frederick is only 8 years old now, and he is only 36 years old this year. He is in his prime, and when Frederick succeeds to the throne It will take at least 30 to [-] years, and it is not good to be too far-sighted.

Instead of looking for his son, Richard walked out of the Hippolito Palace with a few soldiers.As the core of the entire kingdom, the current Nord City has undergone earth-shaking changes compared to the down-and-out city before he took over. The streets full of sewage are gone, replaced by clean and tidy stone paved avenues, and the sewage of the citizens flows along the streets. The sewage channels on both sides flow into the city's underground pipeline.The urban area has also been expanded, from a small city that could only accommodate tens of thousands of people to a large city with a permanent population of nearly 20, and a moat was dug outside the city wall, connecting it to the Fabrici River.

This is a major project. A new canal will be opened from the Fabrici River in the Kingdom of Ravana, passing through the Earl of Lyon and directly connected to the capital of the Kingdom. Every day, tens of thousands of goods and materials are sent to the Kingdom along the canal. Various markets in the city support the daily life of nearly 20 residents in the city.

The kingdom of Winston has changed for the better.This is the common feeling of every Winsterman who came from the era of King Alfonso and the usurper Jutian. From resisting Richard's entry into the kingdom to supporting Richard, they have witnessed the revival of the kingdom with their own eyes. From the end of the civil war to the encirclement of two major defeats, she has gradually become a regional power from a small country in the region.

Walking in the bustling street, Richard looked at the faces passing by one after another, including Winster locals and a large number of foreigners. Talking, compared to the prosperous and rich Nord City, their hometown is as poor as a beggar.On the streets of Nord City, you can always see novelty gadgets and high-quality and high-priced products. If you don’t restrain yourself, their pockets will definitely lose weight after a day of shopping.

In such a prosperous and crowded city, there will inevitably be thieves and other gray professional workers, and it is also inevitable in Nord City, but it is thanks to the city defense forces who can be seen from time to time holding flintlock guns and patrolling the streets at a neat pace , Nord City's law and order is quite good compared to other cities.As long as you are caught by the city defense army for the crime of stealing, you will not be given a chance to eat in prison. They will directly escort the criminals to nearby mines or lumberyards, making them free coolies and committing crimes for themselves. atonement for crimes.

It's really a great city.Richard thought so, a city that belonged to him.
