Rise of the Empire Total War

Your Majesty, how come you have time to come to me today?

Looking at the young girl whom he had not seen for a long time, and listening to her clear and sweet voice, the corners of Richard's mouth slightly raised, and he gently handed the cup in his hand to the servant standing behind him, saying: My dear Freya , because I missed you, so I came here, it has nothing to do with whether I have time or not.

Then according to what you said, you haven't thought about me for the past two years, so you let me live with a few servants in this empty manor and never came to see me. Freya Said, her eyelids drooped, covering the gloom and loneliness underneath.

Hearing what Freya said, Richard suddenly came to his senses. Only then did he realize that he had been neglecting this princess who followed him to a foreign land alone for the sake of the motherland. Looking at Freya who was obviously thinner, he suddenly felt distressed. stand up.

That's all in the past, Freya. Richard said, he stood up, hugged the girl in front of him into his arms, feeling the slightly trembling softness in his arms, he paused, and said: From today From now on, I will visit you often.

Hmm... Facing Richard's promise, Freya just responded softly. She was no longer that inexperienced girl. She knew very well in her heart that such a king's promise was the least valuable.

Richard didn't know what the beautiful woman in his arms was thinking, they hugged for a while, and then let go, Richard looked at the first woman in his life, and said: Actually, I came here to marry you The news about the Principality of Lasik will be passed on to you.

What? Freya was startled, she tightened her hands around Richard's waist, and asked, What happened?

Seeing Freya's gaffe, Richard had no intention of showing off. He organized his words and said, A civil war broke out in the Principality of Lasik. Your father's army was defeated by the rebels. It is estimated that they are still trapped. In the capital city of Rostas.

Hearing this, Freya's face turned pale. She let go of Richard's hand at the waist, and her soles went limp, and she almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Richard had quick eyesight and hands to support her in time. Freya, who was supported, seemed to have caught a life-saving straw. She suddenly grabbed Richard's hands tightly, stared at Richard, and begged: Your Majesty, please send troops to save my father, as long as You are willing to send troops, let me do anything.

Freya's begging did not impress Richard, he looked at the girl who was clinging to him, the corner of his mouth suddenly raised, and said: But, my dear Freya, you have to remember your current situation, you are now The whole person is mine, and you can only agree to whatever I ask you to do.

... Freya was silent. What Richard said was the truth. She is now Richard's mistress, and she is also attached to Richard. She can't refuse anything Richard asks her to do.

Seeing her silence, Richard smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and rubbed her hair, and said, Actually, your father has sent someone to ask me for help, asking me to send troops for support, but I didn't agree immediately, nor did I refuse. I'm hesitating...

Having said that, Richard didn't continue talking, Freya was very smart, she immediately understood what Richard meant, and said: Are you waiting for a suitable reason, as long as my father If the chips given are high enough, you will send troops immediately.

No, no, no. Richard shook his head, and he continued: My dear Freya, if you want me to send troops to rescue, you have to cooperate with me and follow the plan I set.

What plan? Freya asked puzzled.

Facing Freya's inquiry, Richard suddenly remained silent. He let go of the princess's hand and sat back on his seat. Under Freya's anxious gaze, he slowly took the hand of the servant. He took a sip of the sweet water, and after he swallowed it, he smiled slightly and said, It's okay to send troops to rescue your father, but I don't want him to continue to sit in the position of Grand Duke Lasik. I want you Replace him and become the Grand Duchess of Lasik Principality.

What?! Freya was startled by Richard's words and took a few steps back.

Shouting out loud, her beautiful eyes were full of shock and hesitation.

You heard me right, my dear Freya. The girl's reaction was within Richard's expectation. He took another sip of clear water and swallowed the sweet and cool liquid, and suddenly found that the water here seemed to be more The water in Ippolito Palace was even sweeter. He nodded, then handed the cup to the servant behind him, and continued: As long as you cooperate with me, I can go back tomorrow and promise to your father's envoy, you Think about it carefully.

After finishing speaking, he stood up from the chair, stretched his waist, and walked out of the house. When he reached the door, Freya was still standing there, as if struggling with Richard's words. He glanced at her vaguely, shook his head, and walked out.

Richard didn't understand the entanglement in Freya's heart. On the one hand, the father who gave birth to her and raised her and focused his love on her alone, and on the other hand, the authority of the Grand Duke who symbolized the highest status. She had to take her place and oust her father, but if she didn't, his father was likely to die at the hands of the rebels.

At the same time, he also remembered the time when he and Freya met back then. At that time, he had just conquered the Republic of Cunya and forced the Principality of Lasik to cede land and pay compensation to marry his daughter. After Freya brought her back to Nord City, she was obsessed with the garden in Ippolito Palace all day long. Now it seems that all the flowers and plants in this garden were planted by Freya herself.

He bent down, gently picked a red flower, put it under his nose and sniffed it, a strong floral fragrance filled his nasal cavity, he didn't know the name of this flower, but it didn't hinder him Enjoy the scent of flowers.

Perhaps this kind of life is suitable for Freya. Such a thought suddenly appeared in Richard's mind. He looked at the bright flower in his hand. Freya's future is just like this flower. After a short period of bright beauty, it will soon wither—if she chooses With the road given by Richard, I am afraid that she will never have the opportunity to do what she likes to do carefree like this.
