The knight king of the otherworldly moon

"I will let the 3 troops here cross the river, and release more than [-] prisoners, including the prince of France."

"Don't you think your appetite is too great, King of Britain?" Bismarck's expression became serious.

This condition is also within his expected range, but it is the reserve price that he should have finally offered.Now that Lucifer said it out loud, he had the illusion that Lucifer could read minds.

Of course, Lucifer does not have such a bug-like ability, but it is not too difficult to infer the range of conditions that the opponent can accept based on the current situation.

"Do you think I'm too much? Compared to us uniting with Rome and contacting Macedonia to carve up a large amount of France, this condition is no longer harsh. This land was originally the territory of Britain, and it was only taken by you about 15 years ago. Take it away. I don’t want to make the mistake of the previous king and let you get a vanguard base across the river for nothing.”

"..."

"Since you can come, you should also be able to see the changes in the situation in front of you. However, I don't know if you can see clearly. That is, if this truce contract is to be fully effective, both parties must be reassured. And this The Rhine is the guarantee. I don't want my southern side to be in danger of being pierced at any time."

Compared with the contract on paper, the real thing is the real guarantee of the truce.With this big river as a natural barrier, there will be a lot of peace of mind for both parties.France did not have time to worry about being attacked by Britain, as did Britain.

"If you want to agree to this, the number of gold coins must be reduced." Bismarck changed a condition.

In this era, it is normal to use money to buy land, and reducing the indemnity is equivalent to having that money in exchange for this land.This is not unacceptable.Bismarck was also considering financial problems in France.

"The gold coins are still 70, but I can agree to pay in installments. That is, 40 will be paid first, then 30 will be delivered in five years, and 6 will be paid each year. This way, your financial pressure is much less." Lucifer Seeing the opportunity, I changed a payment method.

According to Bismarck's previous information and the analysis of Semiramis' intelligence, Lucifer believes that 40 is an acceptable number.If they had to say it again, they probably didn't want to give it.

Bismarck was silent for a long time before speaking.

"I need a little time to think about it."

"No problem! I welcome you to think about it for a while at any time. Gawain, arrange a luxurious resting place for the prime minister. Whether it is guards or food, we must treat them according to the prime minister's specifications. We can't let the high school prime minister say that we don't understand etiquette, understand. ?"

Lucifer's words at this moment made Gawain and Arturia laugh.The words that were obviously under surveillance came out of Lucifer's mouth, but it seemed like he was protecting them.

"Yes, king! I'll do it now."

Gawain said, and left here first.Following that, Lucifer also got up first, which meant that he had no intention of continuing to talk.Suddenly, as if thinking of something, he turned around and said to Bismarck.

"Your Excellency, personally, I would very much welcome you to think about it for a while. But I may need to remind you that as long as a formal truce is not signed between us, it means that our two countries are still hostile. nation."

Bismarck was also about to get up, but suddenly froze when he heard this.After reacting, he stared at Lucifer calmly.

"Are you warning me? If you wait too long, the soldiers on the opposite side may be annihilated by you at any time?"

"No, it's a kind reminder. After all, we may soon become a truce, and I don't want to make things too stiff before that."

"thanks for your reminder."

After speaking, the two of them disappeared in front of each other. *

no.46 A truce is not peace

After a day of negotiation, France and Britain finally formally signed a truce.At the same time, they also announced this contract to the world.

France and Britain formally truce for five years.France paid Britain a total of 70 gold coins, 40 first and 30 in installments.At the same time, the two countries redrawn their borders along the Rhine River.France does not pursue the question of the death of the holy sword and the marshal.

In exchange, Britain would free all French captives, including the French prince Pepin.They also returned their armor and weapons together. The interesting thing is that this was originally a small back door left by Lucifer, and it was also one of the chips.Bismarck saw this too and added this condition.

Thanks to this, the more than 3 captured French soldiers were finally able to get back their weapons, so that they would not have to spend a lot of money to buy them again later.Of course, those who died in battle were naturally confiscated as spoils of war.

About five days later, this army of nearly 10 people, including the wounded and wounded, returned to their country through the barely repaired skeleton bridge.After returning, Bismarck dismantled the bridge very tacitly, and dismantled it to the pier on the French side.

In response, Lucifer just smiled, instead of demolishing the bridge, he erected a stone tablet beside the bridge.On it is written the testimony of the friendship between the two countries.

In this way, a great war between nations came to an end temporarily in a manner acceptable to both sides.Lucifer took the army on the way back. On their way back, they saw Siegfried who was repairing the White Rock Fortress, and then returned to the Dragonscale Fortress to rest.

When he came back, Lucifer walked on the street and got heroic cheers.

Now almost everyone is completely convinced of Lucifer, the new king. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lucifer used his prestige and the king's power to forcibly integrate this army and put it under his command.

In this regard, the people below did not feel that there was any problem. On the contrary, they felt that it was a very honorable thing to fight for the king.After a few days of fighting, Lucifer temporarily let the army rest while telling them that they might go north or east later. In this way, they did not relax their preparations while resting.

After finishing a bunch of affairs at hand, the night was getting darker.In the brightly lit corridor, Lucifer was walking towards the large bathroom in the distance.

The pool in the large bathroom is like a swimming pool, surrounded by columns of white marble, with the ribbons falling in the air, the overall look has a Roman style.It is said that it was built by the previous king when he came to the fort to fight, and it was used exclusively for the royal family.The design style is based on the Roman line.

At this time, the water in the pool had heated up, put down his clothes, and Lucifer lay in.The moment the body touched the warm water, the whole person's spirit seemed to relax.He put the towel over his eyes and meditated alone on the results of these days.

For now, Britain's biggest danger to the outside world has basically been resolved. France has been defeated, and Ross will naturally not move. Rome will also reconsider its own combat power and give up robbery.

Compared with the stable external situation, we should turn our attention to the domestic situation.With this victory, the country will no longer question my ability as a king.But there are members of the former royal family, and it is not ruled out that some people with ulterior motives will jump out and make big news.

Considering the situation in the mainland in the future, the aristocratic system may be a big problem, and a centralized strategy should still be adopted.As for Princess Morgan..., forget it!Haven't seen this princess yet.

If Leah is willing to reveal the identity of her illegitimate child, making her the queen is the best solution to stabilize the current situation in one fell swoop.well!What am I thinking, only this decision, she will not agree.

Think about it, she also has the ability to draw a sword, and is the illegitimate son of the king.But now the country does not need two kings.She would rather live as a knight than something like a queen.However, Leah's wedding dress... This kind of picture is a bit heartwarming.

Thinking of this, Lucifer was still considering whether to find a time in private to abuse his power in the future, when he suddenly sensed a familiar aura behind him.That is his own guardian knight.

Lucifer tilted his head, and the one who came into his sight was the knight girl.She had taken off her armor and was wearing a blue and white dress.

Suddenly seeing Lucifer without clothes on, Knight Princess's expression was very shy.

"That..." She turned her head, as if she didn't dare to look this way at all.

"Come down! I was just thinking about where to go as a personal bodyguard?" Lucifer directly invited the girl.

"Down?" Arturia was stunned.

She looked at the pool, a little unsure if Lucifer called her into the water.Then……

"Yeah! After these few days of fighting, Leah must be very tired. The water temperature here is just right to relax the repressed spirit before."

"I……"

Arturia originally wanted to refuse, but after seeing Lucifer's eyes, she understood that continuing to refuse might become an order.She thought about it and decided to obey.

(Three shifts!)*

no.47 Wash together (please ask for tickets, ask for flowers)

The dress fell gently, and after a while, a petite figure appeared in the water.However, she looked very shy, and she subconsciously distanced herself from Lucifer.

"Please don't get me wrong, I'm just here to protect the king's safety." Looking at Lucifer's smile, Artoria forced herself to explain.

"Of course it's for my safety. It's all said about personal guards, so it's natural to be together at some point. Otherwise, if an assassin runs in at any time, it's your dereliction of duty!"

"How could there be an assassin at this time?" Muttering softly, Arturia dipped half of her head in the water.

"Assassins usually attack their targets when people are at their most relaxed, and in terms of timing, now is a good opportunity. So, for my safety, my lovely Knight Ji will trouble you."

Although in terms of timing, now is the best time.But it was only timing, but this reason really convinced Arturia.

"Is this really the case? I understand, I will definitely protect the king's safety." Arturia said with a serious expression.

At this time, she subconsciously ignored the fact that Wang was actually stronger than her.However, even strong people need guards, it has nothing to do with strength.Arturia firmly believed so.

"Guarding like this? The distance between us is a little far." Seeing that this was a good reason, Lucifer continued to take every inch.

The distance between the two of them has exceeded ten meters, which is absolutely unqualified for the guards.then……

"Please forgive my dereliction of duty."

Knight Ji focused on her responsibilities and subconsciously approached within one meter.This time, with a reason, she seemed to have forgotten her shyness.

Through the mist, Lucifer also saw the Knight Princess clearly for the first time.His up-and-down eyes quickly caught Arturia's attention, only then did she realize they were being honest with each other.

"Please don't stare at me like that!" Arturia clasped her arms, as if worried about what Lucifer saw.

But in fact, she didn't know that her shy expression and actions were more flavorful than before.

"Look carefully, Leah, you said before that your body is not as slender as that of noble ladies, without the charm of women, but now it does not seem to be the case. At this moment, you are like a lily blooming in the water, which is pitiful. ' A pleasant smile appeared at the corner of Lucifer's mouth.

In the face of Lucifer's praise, originally, Arturia should be happy, but her current appearance makes her unhappy.

"King!" Her voice was almost pleading, and her expression was so shy that she was about to cry.

"Okay! Okay! I won't tease you anymore. If you go on like this, I'll be in danger if you walk away in shame."

After speaking, in order to reduce the shyness in Knight Ji's heart.Lucifer put the towel over his eyes again and leaned back.Without Lucifer's glaring gaze, Arturia's body temperature finally gradually began to drop.

After a while, she finally regained her composure.She looked at Lucifer inadvertently at this time, but immediately looked away like a thief. After moving away, it gradually returned to its original state, and then suddenly and forcibly moved away.

She repeated this action five or six times, and then forcibly said to herself.

"Calm down! Calm down! Calm down! Just treat it like it's at your aunt's house, yes, that's it."

By suggesting to herself, Arturia finally calmed down.

When Lucifer next to him heard her words, he couldn't help but feel that the girl in front of him was really cute, but if it went on like this, he might not be able to communicate normally.Lucifer thought for a while and gave his own suggestion.

"Don't be so nervous, Leah! I'm not a nameless monster, and I won't eat you. I asked you to take a bath to relax, don't you look more nervous now? There's a towel next to me, if you really can't If you're calm, don't be like me."

Since what you see can make you shy, it's okay not to see it.Although they have a feeling of stealing the bell no matter how far they are, at least they can't see it on the surface.

"Well, it seems to be possible! Thank you, Wang!"

After speaking, Arturia picked up the towel and started to learn Lucifer.In this way, without seeing Lucifer, she finally exhaled a long breath.

"Don't call me the king in private. In public, I'm the king, your knight. But before that, we were close boyfriends and girlfriends. As for me, I don't want you to put me too high. Go." At this time, Lucifer continued.

"Lucifer?"

"If the name is a little difficult to pronounce, call me Lucier, or Lucifer."

"Well, Lucille!" Arturia's voice was obviously mixed with joy, and after thinking about it, she continued.

"Lucier, are we really so relaxed now? Although we made a contract with France, we still let their army go back. I'm a little worried."

(Four more complete.)*

no.48 Correct demonstration of shampooing (asking for tickets, asking for flowers)

In theory, although France was defeated this time, most of their army had returned after all.Even taking into account the number of wounded soldiers after the war, nearly half of them returned.These soldiers could become a force in the next war.

But only in theory.

"Worried? Worried about France's comeback? Now the initiative is in our hands. The previous war cost France [-] or [-] troops. In a short time, France will not pose a threat to Britain, and we can also free up our hands to develop internal affairs."

[-] or [-] troops is not a small number, especially since France, like Britain, is currently in an area that is surrounded by powerful countries.For a long time to come, they may face more internal problems, as well as prying eyes from the north and east.

The defeat of France may also give other people an illusion, such as 'France is actually very good, I can go to me, after all, you see, a new king who doesn't know where he came from has made the three French legions surrender in a month. 'This kind of.Once this illusion is present, the country is likely to be prey to many.

"I thought at the time that Lucier really wanted to destroy the three French legions in one fell swoop, but I didn't expect that Lucier wanted peace talks."

"Actually, if the internal problems in Britain have been resolved, the previous war would be an opportunity. But unfortunately, the internal instability, the strong enemies in the north and the east are still there, time does not allow us to make too many choices."

"What a pity. If it weren't for the issue of the north and the east, this battle would have been Britain's best chance to invade France in one fell swoop."

Although she appears to be an upright knight on the surface, the maiden knight seems to have the idea of ​​defeating the old enemy of France in her heart.It should be said that the knights here more or less have this idea.

In fact, the previous war can be said to be one step closer.They were one step away from piercing the east side of France, but unfortunately the timing was not right.

"It is because of the complicated situation at hand that I want to give priority to talking with France. Not to mention that they can get the most reward from their hands, just considering the current situation in Britain, we can't overly weaken France's strength. Otherwise, once Rome and Macedonia destroy France, we may face Rome in a two-front war. Rome is already strong enough, and if it annexes French territory, it will directly threaten the survival of Britain ." Lucifer's mind remained calm.

Punch through France.It sounds like a good look, but the problem is that even if they are defeated now, they can't hold back, and they will only gain the two countries next to them in vain.

In the nine countries of the mainland, helping other countries to increase their strength in this situation is almost equal to slowly stifling their own development.It could end up being suicide.Now Lucifer has the illusion that he is playing a strategy game.Of course, if France's bones were hard enough, they could try to drag Rome into the French war quagmire, but obviously there is no such thing.

"It sounds complicated, but I'm really not suitable for this kind of thing." After thinking about it, Arturia was a little self-sacrificing.Or to recognize reality.

If she had been leading the army, she would have been hot-headed and continued to attack, and the result would have been that Rome might be directly bordering Britain to the south.And that result could be devastating.

"Everyone has what they are good at and what they are not good at. For Leah, just focus on what you are good at, and leave the rest to me."

"Ok!"

With this as a boundary, there was a brief silence between them.Lucifer was about to get up, and when he took down the towel, he subconsciously looked at Arturia.It was only here that he discovered that the girl's blond hair had become a little messy because of the previous war.

He looked at a plate that the pool maid had brought up earlier, where cleaning items were placed.Lucifer found that there were only two kinds of water squeezed from leaves, and the previous maid said that it was used to cleanse the body and hair.

shampoo?Shower Gel?

With such curiosity, Lucifer tried it and found that this was just the most primitive method.Although there is a cleaning function, but the effect is the same.Still, something is better than nothing.

He picked up two things and looked at them, then called to Arturia next to him.

"Lea, come here. I'll wash your hair for you."
