Proof of the Sun King

PS: Yesterday's chapter number was wrong and repeated. The previous chapter should be seven hundred and ninety-seven, and this chapter is seven hundred and ninety-eight.

PS2: This chapter is 5200 words, and it is enough to ensure that everyone has a good time. By the way, I ask for a wave of tickets!

For Ryan, he didn't care about Kislev. For the ice and snow country and the old world's first line of defense against chaos, Britannia was too far away from Kislev. There is really no need to talk about things that far, so Ryan really lacks interest in Beria's proposal, and there is really no interest there, so he politely declined.

Even if an accident happened to Kislev, there would still be support from the Empire. If the Knight Kingdom really wanted to help, at least wait until the Tsar asks for help or even if the country is close to extinction. Otherwise, even if Ryan takes the initiative to extend an olive branch, people may not appreciate it.

The most important thing now is to return to China and a series of awards.

Obviously, the victory of the Great Crusade of Eight Peaks has spread the names of Ryan and Bellegar throughout the old world again. Now, many people can't wait to give Ryan the title of "The Greatest King of Knights since Arthur" and "Finally". In the human kingdom, Ryan's name has become the brightest star.

2513 Imperial Calendar, mid-January, Old World Central, Imperial Capital, Brunswick.

Brunswick, the capital city in winter, is a little bit backward compared to the prosperity it was a few years ago. The streets are full of people leaving at a quick pace. In addition, many righteous churches, especially those who believe in the battle of the **** Charlemagne Pastors, preaching in the streets.

Correspondingly, the battle priest of the White Wolf Church of the White Wolf God Yuric also preached on the street.

The two sides were full of gunpowder, which made a large number of troops in the capital have to go out to patrol, maintain the security of the entire capital, and try to separate the two factions of believers, but facing the stubborn White Wolf Church priest, even the emperor's will can't do anything.

Charlemagne was once the chosen champion of the white wolf **** Uric.

The savior Ludwig, who once passed through the White Wolf Sacred Fire unscathed, relied on this move to unite the entire empire, which is also a gift from the wolf **** Uric.

This made it impossible for the emperor to deny the White Wolf Sect, otherwise it would be denying the legal system of the empire and the legitimacy of his own rule.

However, just a few days earlier, outside the city of Brunswick, a terrible infighting had broken out between the army of the Church of Justice, led by Archbishop Vikma, and the Bishop of Westmond, the Church of Uric. The Ulric Church army led by Chitel-Wesmond carried out an extremely fierce battle, and both sides suffered heavy casualties, and the cause of all this was simply that Bishop Richtel said during his sermon: "Charlie" Man is not a god."

Because of this sentence, the two sides fought a battle outside Brunswick.

Emperor Karl-Franz was very reluctant to see this battle happen, but the emperor also knew that his basic foundation was the Church of Justice. Archbishop Vikmar was a close political ally of the emperor and Karl-Franz. Franz's strongest supporter is also the giver of the key three votes in the election of the emperor, so Karl Franz did not stop the battle, he let the two sides fight a battle on the outskirts of Brunswick, and ordered Rui The garrison and the emperor's private army were ready to go.

As the Bishop of Westmond Region, Richter, was fired by the Archbishop of Vicma with a scepter of order, and died on the spot, the emperor finally found an excuse to order the Rick Guard and the emperor's private army to dispatch. Corrupted and insane as the reason to go to war privately, led the siege and disarmed the Uric Church army, and then unilaterally announced that the contradiction and conflict had ended, and the Justice Church and the Uric Church were still brother churches.

Thus, the war ended in a total victory for the southern factions of the Empire, however, despite the military victory of Archbishop Vikma, there was no winner in the war for the Empire, more than a thousand people fell on the battlefield, and these armies It was supposed to be used against evil.

To make matters worse, the empire appeared to be divided. After the war, the Grand Duke of Midden and the Elector of Boris immediately led the army of Midden to the Elector's Palace in Kronborg and confronted the emperor across the river. , Boris is said to have been furious at the outcome of the war and cursed Karl Franz as the puppet emperor of the Church of Justice.

At the same time, Nuer, who was extremely distrustful of the emperor and had a very obvious tendency to independence, also began to make a move. Imperial Countess Emmanuel led the Nuer armored army to the emperor's court. There were many rumors that she wanted to become the queen of the empire. , and is also rumored to be seeking political blackmail from the Emperor, supporting her son Frederick to become the next Emperor of the Empire - in exchange for Noor's support for Brunswick.

The entire empire finally had a little time to recuperate, and as a result, the war was clouded in an instant, rumors were everywhere in the market, and some even believed that this was a symbol of the collapse of the big alliance of the empire.

And just above the street in Brunswick, under the icon of Charlemagne, a fighting priest of the Justice Church was delivering his speech loudly to passers-by, and many people stopped and listened.

"Empire, son of Charlemagne, in the name of Ludwig the Savior, please listen to me!"

"Our catastrophe is imminent!"

"In the north, the vicious and despicable Boris Todbringer and his White Wolf henchmen are already overwhelming! He may call himself the Wolf Emperor at any time!"

"In the East, the ambitious and unpredictable Emmanuel von Lebowitz-Bernardino led his men to Brunswick, our capital, friend and foe! Crisis! Noor The iron armored army may invade the palace at any time and establish a new king!"

The impassioned speech of the battle priest has already excited the surrounding townspeople, who are frantically cursing, waving their fists, and venting their dissatisfaction.

During this period of time, the economy of Brunswick or Rickland was not good. Because Emperor Karl Franz accepted the "Five-Year Reconstruction of Solland Plan", he supported Gale, the chief wizard of the imperial royal family and the great alchemist. Special restoration of Sol Land and the establishment of Sol Fortress of Wintertooth Pass. Therefore, the imperial court has recently undergone a financial crunch. Many projects and construction have been temporarily suspended. Many large orders and purchases from the palace have also been reduced in scale. In addition to feeling the cold winter of the climate, citizens can also feel the cold winter of the whole industry.

"Charlemagne, it's all a shame!" The battle priests continued to beat the emotions of the bourgeoisie: "At this moment, citizens, we must stand up and defend our status in Brunswick and our empire. The majesty of the capital, protect us, our interests under the oppression of foreigners and foreigners, protect us, the supreme glory of being an Imperial! Let us support our hero, Karl Franz!"

"Yeah yeah yeah!"

"We must stand up, save Brunswick, save the Empire!"

"Brunswick belongs to Brunswick, foreigners and out-of-towners alike get out of here!"

"Never allow **** from other provinces to compete with us for jobs! Take the wealth that should belong to us!"

The anger of the townspeople was quickly throbbed by the battle priests, who roared and roared, blaming foreigners and out-of-towners for all of the recent economic downturn and declining incomes, especially Midden Leaders and Wayans. Forest leader.

"Citizens of Brunswick, please give us strength! Please support us for the sake of the Empire and for our beloved Emperor Karl Franz, so that we can overcome difficulties and overcome the current difficulties! "The battle priest continued: "Please provide the help you can, everyone, please unite closely with Emperor Karl Franz and fight for him!"

Under the encouragement of the battle priest, the citizens of the capital have generously donated money and materials, and many even volunteered to join the imperial army.

And just above the city wall of the Imperial Palace not far from this street, Imperial Emperor Karl Franz was watching this scene with a heavy heart, his hands behind his back, his face covered with haze.

"The army has been mobilized, Your Majesty, if you need it, we are ready to confront Boris and his wolf cubs at any time." Marshal Rick Kurt Heilberg stood behind the emperor: "I am waiting for your order now. ."

Looking at the scene where donations were being made and joining the army, the emperor suddenly said a sentence: "Tell me, Heilberg, how can you fight without money?"

"Your Majesty?" Heilberg was very puzzled, and Marshal Rick emphasized it again: "Your Majesty, there is no problem with the army's salaries and supplies, and the army's salaries in the capital have just been issued."

"The Great Crusade of Eight Peaks has been victorious, Heilberg." The emperor said thoughtlessly: "The knight brothers on the opposite side of the mountain and the dwarves of the Angrond clan have really recovered from the hands of the greenskins and the Skaven. After arriving at the Eight Peaks Mountain, according to the news from Rick's guard Rudolph and the others, Ryan Malcador has captured an amazing loot, and the entire fleet is filled with gold and various treasures."

"The Great Crusade has been won, which is good, but it's their business, not ours." Heilberg emphasized: "The army of Rickland is still closely united around you, and so are the people."

The Emperor thought to himself that it was a mistake to tell Heilberg this, but if it were not so, he would not have appointed him Marshal Rick.

On the one hand, the Emperor of the Empire was very happy about the victory of the Bafengshan Great Crusade, because the evil forces were defeated, and the danger from the badlands became far away from the Empire, which allowed him to devote a lot of energy to dealing with threats from the north and the Empire.

On the other hand, the emperor felt both envy and jealousy in his heart. The king on the opposite side of the mountain had great military exploits, great fame, and prestige. Before the start of the Bafengshan Great Expedition, the imperial court had carefully evaluated the war. Even after taking into account Ryan's personal bravery and his excellent command, the imperial court still judges that the probability of victory in this great expedition is less than 30%.

The emperor thought of this and clenched his fists. Boris Todbringer is now on the edge of the army, and the war is about to break out, but the emperor's treasury is empty. In order to help Geert rebuild Solland, the imperial court is already in financial difficulties. , Although it is not yet at the end of the mountain, it will take a year or two to overcome the difficulties and wait until Solling starts to give back to the empire.

This year or two will be extremely difficult.

How to do? The emperor thought so.

"Your Majesty, Lady Emmanori led the Noor Iron Armored Army and the Noor Champion Theodore Bruckner to the palace." At this moment, a Rick guard came in to report: "Your Majesty, do you plan to A meeting with Her Excellency the Duchess?"

Emmanuel! The emperor's eyes were a little erratic, and he even became a little unconfident: "What is she doing here?"

"The Countess said she came to see her son." The Rick guard bowed and said, "She is now in the back garden with little Frederick."

The emperor nodded slowly, he was sure that Emmanuel's love for his son was obvious to all. The first thing the imperial duchess did when she entered the palace was to see her son, who was also the emperor's godson. The political signal made the emperor's heart a little bit, no matter what Emmanuel's plan was, at least she did not plan to go to war and declare independence, so there was room for mediation, and for the emperor, as long as there was a With a little space, he has a way to operate.

"Immediately arrange a meeting, and I want to discuss with our Countess what to do next." The emperor signaled his subordinates to make arrangements immediately, and then he quickly left the room and walked towards the living room.

But before that, the Emperor had to meet his Chancellor of the Exchequer, Lady Hawkswall, in the lavish and magnificent palace study.

Everything is very tense. In addition to the pressure of the army, the empire's finances have also been stretched. The military expenses required by the army, the funds needed to rebuild the walls, roads, cities and farms of Solland, the emperor did not have time to ask, but from Hawke The sour look on Mrs Swall's face and her hand constantly fiddling with her ruby ​​ring and her platinum brooch showed how difficult the finances of the Empire, or at least the Court of Brunswick, were facing.

"Do what you can, and let me think of a way." This was the emperor's order to his chancellor. Karl Franz rubbed his tired eyebrows and the corners of his eyes that already had a lot of crow's feet. , Emmanuel, Countess of the Empire, took her and Ryan's child, little Frederick in from outside the door.

Compared with a few years ago, Emmanuel, who is in her thirties this year, not only does not show a trace of old age, but looks more elegant and glamorous. Emmanuel is wearing a set of **** candy cream curtains today. The Imperial Countess's sheer skirt, wearing a gold crown of the Countess, has long golden soft hair tied behind her head, and the collar on the chest is raised high. The veil is made of translucent silk and reaches the ankles. Inside is a black bag. A short buttocks skirt, a pair of slender legs wrapped in dark red meat-tight velvet pantyhose looming, and a pair of red silk feet wearing stiletto high heels inlaid with Silmarillions and skull patterns, there are fragrant winds everywhere.

From the noble and elegant features of the Imperial Countess and her enchanting figure, it is completely impossible to tell that she is already the mother of two children, but from her radiant and calm look, the Imperial Countess has been doing well recently.

Isn't it? The emperor secretly complained that everyone knew how good Nur's recent economic situation was: the biggest beneficiary of the friendship, alliance and mutual aid treaty between the empire and Brittany was Nur, and the orders from Brittany, from the Ryan brothers For the orders of the Ash Legion of Forgan, as well as the introduction of various high-end technology and technical talents, Britannia naturally chose to seek Nuer's help. According to the information obtained by the emperor's intelligence department, in recent years, in the Under Emmanuel's supervision and supervision, the salaries of front-line workers in many gun factories in Nuer have risen continuously by more than 50%.

Now the Imperial Countess is deeply loved by the citizens of Nuer, and she is now called "Our Beloved Countess" among the citizens of Nuer.

"Good morning, His Majesty, my Emperor." Emmanuel held her son Frederick Jr. with an inscrutable smile on her face.

"Good morning, Godfather!" Although he was only seven or eight years old, little Frederick grew to about 1.4 meters tall. The godfather said hello, and he also said hello in a good way. Emmanuel reached out and patted little Frederick on the shoulder, motioning him to find Grandpa Ludwig. The little guy nodded and ran away quickly.

"Emmanori, are you here to help me and Boris mediate?" Karl Franz forced a smile~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The emperor spoke very directly, after all, old rivals and old friends Yes, they both know each other quite well.

"That's right, I'm here to mediate." The Imperial Countess said, "No one wants the Empire to split, nor do I. Our strength should be used to defend against foreign enemies. Therefore, I came to Brunswick. Ke, I hope to mediate the dispute between you and Boris, I think Boris will give me this face, or, what advice does His Majesty our Emperor have?"

"Then I have to say thank you." The emperor smiled. He shook his head first, then nodded again: "Thank you anyway, but I think, Emmanuel, you must have something else to do, right?"

"Little Frederick is clamoring to see his father." Emmanuel nodded, her face flushed: "It just happened that the Great Expedition to Eight Peaks ended, and I took little Frederick to Brittany. It's good to visit Ya for a while."

"That's it." The emperor breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. With the mediation of the Imperial Lady, Boris is not an idiot. The White Wolf Electoral Council Chen Bing Border also has the factors of being forced and politically coerced, in order to consolidate his position. , he sometimes had to make a gesture, Emmanuel came forward, and both sides naturally stepped down.

"There is no free lunch in the world, Your Majesty." Who knows, Emmanuel suddenly changed the conversation and her words became sharp: "I want to know one thing!"

Karl Franz groaned in his heart, the emperor's face was solemn, and he kept a hearty smile: "What's the matter?"

"I heard that, in the name of the empire, you obtained a large war loan from the dwarf Supreme King Thorgreen of Eternal Peak?!"

"Tell me, Karl Franz, is this the case?!"

Damn it! The emperor's heart froze, and the quill in his hand trembled slightly.
