Chapter 1101 Cutting Down the Army
Looking at the entire empire, this is the only family that uses the Tsubaki flower as a symbol. Seeing the golden tutawei flowers on the chests of those swordsman guards, everyone knew that it was the grand duke of tuta flowers, otherwise there would be no golden tuta swordsmen accompanying them. The four swordsmen in the front row separated two by two, revealing the three behind. The head is an old housekeeper, gray-haired, but full of energy. There is no wrinkle in the tuxedo on his body, the fireworks folded with white handkerchiefs in the breast pocket are impeccable, and his hands are wearing white gloves. With his right hand in front of his body and his left behind his back, the old housekeeper stood upright. One hand rests on the old butler's right arm. This hand is wearing a lace glove. It is delicate and slender. The fingers are like orchids, and there is a gemstone ring on the middle finger. The gemstone is carved in the shape of a twig flower, and the dark blue gemstone has a natural texture of lavender, which looks noble and elegant.
The owner of this hand was wearing a red and black court attire. The length of the long skirt was more than two meters long, and the attire was luxurious. Under the lights, the gems and crystal diamonds shone like stars. Such a graceful and luxurious woman is very young, no more than twenty years old anyway. Her hair was pulled up high and held in a bun with a diamond-studded net. The look in the eyes was indifferent, proud, and somewhat rude. The skin is so delicate that it seems that it will be broken by the wind at any time, and the classic and exquisite facial features are even more unforgettable at first sight.
Under the brilliance of Mistress Tsuma, even the top ten holy men standing behind her were overshadowed. But Sharon has become accustomed to this, and is even proud of it.
In the hall, except for Julian and Naibert who bowed and bowed, everyone else including Alan saluted solemnly. This is the great honor of the Bolin family. It is the family's exchange of blood and life for the respect of the royal family. Within four kilometers of the empire, only the Duke of Tsutahua is hereditary.
The Grand Duchess nodded slightly to Julian and Naibert, which was regarded as a salute, and finally her eyes fell on Allen, the indifferent face, the corners of the mouth were slightly raised, but before it was noticed by others, it returned to normal.
Julian had heard that the duchess and Allen met in the southern border, so how could he be unaware, and immediately arranged for the daughter-in-law of Tsutahua to go to the quiet room. In front of the room, in addition to the Golden Tsuta Swordsman, there were two top ten saints on the left and one on the right. Even if Ma Sen came in person, it would not be easy to break into this small room. Allen came to the room, but did not enter the room in a hurry. First, he said to the old housekeeper: "When the old Great Wall remains, two more adults would have to take action, otherwise I might be in some cold tomb. It's a pity that there was no I have the opportunity to thank you both, and now I am officially thanking you here.”
The old butler smiled faintly: "At most we will take it as an exit, but at the end of the day, Earl Allen is serious. Please come in, the great justice is waiting for you."
He and Sharon turned sideways, and Alan passed them both. After he entered the house, the old butler closed the door, winked at Sha Lan who looked like a noble woman, and said, "Well, I say he is a good boy."
"Hmph, why don't we save him once, shouldn't we express our gratitude in person?"
The old butler smiled and pointed at Shalan,
But don't continue to argue with her on this topic.
It is said to be a quiet room, but it is actually a study room. There are fakes of the Rise of the Empire hanging on the wall of the study room, and the lighting in the room is soft. Mr. Tsutaka stood in front of the oil painting and stopped to watch it. But her mind was not on the painting. When Allen came in, her ears moved slightly, and her attention was obviously focused on the door. Allen looked at the tall figure and smiled wryly, "Should I call you Duke Elizabeth, or Miss Alice?"
The long skirt was twitching, the pearly light was flowing, the Grand Duke Takuta turned around, the indifference in his eyes faded away, but he habitually raised his chin and smiled: "For the sake of you not forgetting that name, you are allowed to be in front of no one." Call me Elise sometime."
"Then should I bow down and thank you?"
"Oh, it seems that Earl Allen is nothing more than that. Back then he dared to reprimand me loudly without knowing my identity, but today he only knows how to grovel?" Alice said in a cold tone.
Allen shook his head: "Your mouth is still so poisonous."
Hearing this sentence, Alice couldn't hold back any longer, and burst out laughing. She randomly found a chair and sat down, swinging her legs and said: "You don't know, it's hard work to pretend every day, so now I miss the days when I met you. I was not Elizabeth at that time , just a wayward Elise."
"You are moaning without illness. God knows how many people are willing to live your pretending life." Allen sat on the other side of the Grand Duke and sighed: "Look, even the second prince and the Prime Minister have to bow when they see you. Prestige."
"It's fine if you like it, you can be my man, and you don't even have to kneel down when you meet the emperor." Alice said casually, and suddenly realized that she said something wrong, and a red cloud immediately floated on that classic and beautiful face.
Allen looked at her and smiled, "You know? A friend once told me that the fastest way to get ahead is to be your man. This is a shortcut."
Alice narrowed her eyes, and said in a dangerous tone: "Which bastard said that!"
"You should know that bastard, after all, you attended his wedding."
"Orlando!" Alice gritted her teeth, "Next time I see you, I have to teach him a lesson."
"Then he can probably brag to others for more than half a year. You know, there are really not many people who have taught Duke Tutah a lesson." Allen spread his hands.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
"He is indeed a bastard. I really don't know how the Marquis of Iron Spear gave birth to such a son." Alice scolded with a smile.
"I think so."
Then the study room became so quiet, and after a while, Alice said: "I left without saying goodbye last time, I really had to. Speaking of which, I still owe you the rewards I haven't paid yet."
Allen shook his head and said, "You ask the two adults to help you at the old Great Wall, and I will pay it back for you."
Alice's almond eyes glared angrily: "Then what is the calculation, do you think my reward is so cheap?"
Her voice is quite loud, and the sound insulation of the door of the study is not very good. Not to mention that the two old butlers could hear clearly, even the few golden swordsmen also heard it. The old butler bumped into Sha Lan and said in a low voice, "It turns out that the two of us are worthless."
Sharon rolled her eyes, too lazy to talk to her old partner.
In the study, Alice sat up straight, and said seriously: "Not long ago, the Naga tribe provided some evidence, proving that the sword master Mason was the one who paid to kill me. Hmph, Mason's intentions are so sinister, Why didn't my Bolling family report it. I know you guys are going to deal with Mason, and if you have specific actions at that time, don't forget to let me know."
"How can I find you?"
Obviously, Alice had been prepared for a long time. She took out a coat of arms with a pattern of golden squid flowers in her hand, put it on the table and said, "With it, you can find me whenever you need it. Our family has a lot of property in the imperial capital. Julian knows that you can show this coat of arms anywhere, and someone will bring you to see me."
After she finished speaking, she stood up: "I count the north-south trade route and the cold crystal mine as the interest of the rewards I owe you."
Then he pushed the door and left without saying goodbye. Allen shook his head and put away the coat of arms. Julian and the others saw each other off, and they didn't arrive at the hall until they watched the carriage leaving the mother-in-law of Tsutahua. In the carriage, Alice looked out the window quietly, and Shalan, who was sitting next to her, suddenly said, "Miss, what do you think of this Earl Allen?"
"How about what?"
"Be the husband of the lady."
Alice frowned, and then said: "I don't think it's annoying to get along with him. But it's too early to be my man."
The old butler seated opposite immediately beamed with joy and winked at Shalan. This was the first time Elise was alone with a young man, and she didn't find it annoying. You must know that in the past, when the family found candidates for her, they almost rejected them without even looking at them.
"Now is not the time to talk about this." Elise said to the two former ten saints who watched her grow up: "Mason's desire to seize the throne has become more and more obvious, but His Majesty has been late. If His Majesty doesn’t do it, then we have to do it. I don’t think it will be long before we meet Mason. There is no problem with the army. The problem lies with the strong. My uncle can’t get in touch yet. ?"
Elise's uncle, Belekay, is a powerful township in the Boleyn family. He is one of the ten saints along with Mason the Sword Lord and Midian the Twilight Prayer. Yeying Belekay is ranked fourth among the ten saints. If he makes a move, plus the two top ten saints, Stum and Shalan, they will be much more sure of dealing with Mason.
But Yeying's whereabouts are uncertain, and he only comes home once or twice a year. Even though the Bolin family has eyeliners all over the empire, it is still not easy to contact Belle Kay. Hearing this, the old butler said in a deep voice: "The last time your uncle heard that he appeared in Gray Town, but he knew that you were attacked in Sardinia, so he will definitely come here."
"I just hope he can arrive in time before dealing with Mason." Alice said.
Recently, the nerves of the people in the imperial capital are always tense. First, the dark horse of the second prince Julian ran out of the Royal Spring Hunting, and won the Spring Hunting crown without making a sound. While people were still shocked by the news, Tangleo announced another big event.
Cut the army!
The policy proposed by Prime Minister Naibert, after several years of fermentation, was finally formally proposed on this day. It's just that the reduction of the army announced by the emperor is slightly different from what the prime minister proposed. Tangliou did not disband all the lord's army below the marquis at once as Nabert proposed, but started with the baron and viscount first. The decree on reducing the army clearly stated that from now on, lords below the earl must automatically disarm the army, and the security of their territories will be under the unified responsibility of the imperial army. However, although this decree was proposed, it clearly gave the local lords three months to implement it.
There is no doubt that the emperor's move was to control the rebound to a minimum. But even so, as soon as the decree came out, it still caused Oliska to boil endlessly.
PS: Seeing the title, I probably guessed that there will be another update later
