Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

During this period of time, Matsushita Lang, the minister of Sakura Kingdom, has been in a state of anxiety.

Ever since he learned that Daxia had defeated John and contacted Gaul, he had been trying his best to get first-hand information about Daxia's internal affairs.

He sent out many people, but the information he got was very limited.

He knew that Prince Rui of Daxia had taken action and formed a new army. The weapons used by this new army were very advanced.

But where exactly these weapons were obtained, Matsushiro did not find out.

Moreover, the new army of Prince Rui of the Great Xia Empire has recently made plans to expand its army.

It has directly expanded from the original more than [-] people to [-] people.

If these [-] people are the same as the previous new army, then they will also be a threat to the Sakura Empire.

What's more serious is that before Matsushiro has figured out the combat effectiveness of this new army, there is news that Daxia has a new type of warship.

When Matsushiro heard the news, he had another headache. The matter of the new army is still being investigated, so why did another fleet appear?

However, as the Sakura Empire's minister in Daxia, he has the obligation to spy on the empire's military intelligence. So he sent people to Jinghai overnight to investigate.

Soon, the people he sent sent back information and confirmed the news.

Daxia really has such a fleet.

After confirming this news, Matsushiro quickly reported the information to the Sakura Empire Headquarters.

However, the people at the headquarters directly responded to him with a request that the information was inaccurate and that he needed to continue investigating.

"Baga! Are the people in the headquarters a bunch of idiots? The information is so obvious, and they still want to investigate! What do they want!"

"Do they have to let Daxia's warships sail to Kyoto Bay before they can believe it? What a bastard!"

Matsushita was in his office, loudly cursing officials he considered incompetent.

"Boom boom boom!"

At this time, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Your Excellency, Mr. Andrew, Ambassador of the John Empire, sent someone to deliver a message, saying that it is Lord Bryce and hopes to discuss with you." The waiter said softly outside the door.

"What? You mean, Lord Bryce of the John Empire, wants to see me?" Matsushita asked in surprise.

"Yes, Your Excellency, Minister." The waiter nodded, indicating that Matsushiro heard correctly.

"I know, did you say what you want to discuss?"

"No, Your Excellency, it's just that the other party seemed to be very anxious, as if there was something important." The waiter thought for a while, and then said to Matsushiro.

"I understand. You go and prepare a gift for me. I'll go now." Matsushita nodded. The Earl of John's Empire wanted to see him, and he didn't dare to neglect it.

The waiter responded and turned to leave.

Soon, a carriage drove out of the Sakura Empire's mansion and headed towards the John Empire's embassy.

In the carriage, Matsushiro kept thinking about the reason why Bryce wanted to see him, but he never thought of it.

Logically speaking, even if the John Empire had something to do and wanted to cooperate with the Sakura Empire, it should be raised directly by Minister John stationed in the Sakura Empire.

No matter how bad it is, it should be the minister of John's empire who comes to talk to him. Why is it replaced by Bryce, the governor of Nanyang, this time?

You know, at the diplomatic level, there is a very strict system. There are regulations on what kind of people and what kind of people you can interview.

Otherwise, if the levels are not equal, it will be very easy to cause diplomatic accidents.

As the governor of John's Empire in Southeast Asia, Bryce undoubtedly had a somewhat transcendent status. He could not figure out why Bryce met him.

In such confusion, Matsushita arrived at the embassy of John.

"Welcome Minister Matsushita, long time no see." Andrew stood at the door of the embassy to greet Matsushita.

"Ambassador Andrew, Panasonic is very honored to meet you!" When Matsushiro saw Andrew, he quickly bowed to Andrew.

"Minister Matsushita, I'm really sorry to bother you and ask you to make a trip, but we don't dare to neglect the count's order." Although Andrew said he was sorry, the look on his face remained the same.

It seems that Matsushiro is lucky to be able to make such a trip.

"Your Excellency Andrew, if you are there, it would be an honor for me to be invited by the Earl."

"By the way, Sir Andrew, do you know why the count is looking for me?" Matsushita asked with some confusion.

"I'll let the earl tell you the details, but I think it's a good thing for the Sakura Empire." Andrew did not answer Matsushiro's words directly, but said ambiguously.

"A good thing?" Matsushiro was stunned. He really couldn't imagine what kind of thing would be a good thing for him.

"Okay, Minister Matsushita, don't think so much. Don't keep the earl waiting for too long."

Andrew said something and walked towards the inside of the embassy. Matsushiro hurriedly followed.

Soon, Andrew took Matsushita to the living room, and Bryce was already waiting for Matsushita.

"Oh, Minister Matsushita, you are finally here." Bryce immediately greeted Matsushita with a smile when he saw him.

But Bryce didn't even get up, still sitting on the chair.

"Dear Earl Bryce, I came late and kept the Earl waiting." Matsushita didn't think there was anything wrong with Bryce not standing up.

"Your Majesty, this is our first meeting. I don't know what gift to bring to Your Majesty. This tea set is carefully made by Master Qianguchi of our country. Please don't dislike it, Your Majesty." After saying that, Matsushiro handed over a set of tea sets. The prepared gift box was placed in front of Bryce.

"Oh, praise God, this tea set is really exquisite. I like it very much." Bryce nodded, and then waved to the attendants on the side, gesturing for them to take the gifts down.

Then, Bryce pointed to the seat next to him and motioned for Matsushiro to sit down.

Matsushita was polite to Bryce before sitting down.

"Andrew, tell the kitchen that our guests have arrived and let them serve."

"Okay, Lord Earl." Andrew nodded slightly, then turned and left the room.

Watching Andrew leave, Bryce turned his head and looked at Matsushiro next to him.

"Mr. Matsushita, today I asked the kitchen to prepare some Angelou veal steak. I hope you like it."

"Thank you very much, Lord Earl. I like your arrangement very much."

"However, I don't know why the Earl called me here today?" Matsushita looked at Bryce in confusion, hoping that Bryce could give him an answer.

After hearing Matsushiro's words, Bryce put away his smile, and then said solemnly: "The main reason why I came to you today is for the land under our feet."
