Black Scepter Chapter 109: Xia Lan and the vase
Thanks for the monthly ticket 1,! Thanks for the support! Thank you!
The Marquis of Karen suddenly discovered that he was being played by this duke who didn’t treat anyone—Eagle Eye cooperated with Creed? This is something no one knows, but it seems that only he does not know the situation... As the nobleman who came from the Southwest Territory just before the banquet, he immediately realized that his intelligence was behind.

"I can tell you with certainty that although Vieira, the capital of the Augustus Empire, also suffered a Naga attack, there is currently no casualties among the envoys. At the same time, the Augustus Empire has also officially become a strategy with Byzantine. Partnership... As for my son Morpheus, he is now negotiating with the Naga in the deep sea to make his efforts to stop the invasion of the Hai tribe!"
Duke Acar pointed at Karen’s nose and blamed mercilessly in front of Edward III—“And you, at the cost of letting your territory have more military spending and swallow more land, at all costs To start the war 1,! Are those black beasts really vulnerable? At present, only the sacred Gabriel has completely resisted the offensive of these things. Caslandi and Fording have completely lost a large territory, their speed and attack. The range is far beyond any legion, only Byzantine cavalry can catch up with their speed! Are you ready to fight them? Let the jīng sharp cavalry squadron ride a horse to a group of black wolves that will never confront each other? ?"
"You--"
The Marquis of Karen was completely dumbfounded. He did not expect that the Duke of Acar would say that he would flip his face, and also overthrow the information and judgment he thought!
Aisala didn’t have any extra reaction to the scene in front of her. The wine glass swayed gently, passing by the Marquis of Karen, as if inadvertently saying, "Do you think Morpheus is just a dragon knight?" "
The disdain made Marquis Klen clenched his fists.
"Morpheus has submitted a report for me before entering the seabed. His efforts in the Augustus Empire have earned the due respect for the Byzantine, and also made the Augustus Empire resistant to the invasion of Naga. For this contribution, the countries across the sea are willing to contribute a lot of resources to Byzantine to express their gratitude. [] I think the'Golden Cross Medal' is not excessive for Morpheus."
Edward III did not give the Marquis of Karen directly any room for rebuttal, and he concluded directly-his posture was obviously a big pit, waiting for the Marquis of Karen to come from the Southwest Territories and then can’t wait to jump. From the beginning to the end, he seemed to face Windsor and Karen as peacemakers, but obviously some arrogant guys were completely hit by this heavy punch...
"Golden Cross Medal?"
The banquet scene was in an uproar--and Lilith, who was standing behind Edward III, grew her mouth in surprise. She was angry at Karen’s remarks, but she didn’t expect the result to be like this, "Golden Cross" There is no need for anyone to talk nonsense. It is a medal awarded to the Empire Heroes, an honor that only those statues standing at the door of Cauchy School of Knighthood will have. ()
Its meaning is not only glory, but also a "deadless card". Having it means privilege and the birth of a brand-new family-the owner of the "Golden Cross" in the empire is exactly Duke Acar, and after Edward III suddenly announced the news, basically no one was surprised1.
Because in everyone's eyes, this seems like it should be.
Edward III’s attitude made the Marquis of Karen seem to be hit with a punch. He didn’t even reply, and turned and took his son Deco out of the venue.
"The situation in the empire has been stable since today. Next, it depends on whether the landlocked countries dare to put down those shelves."
His Majesty narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance with the Duke Acar for a short time, and then turned to face Lilis with some worries: "Tomorrow go to Pansell School of Magic, some things need to explain to you. (Read novel Just to the leaves · You~ You M)"
Lilith nodded, but was a bit dazed-what did Pansell School of Magic find herself doing?
...................................................................................................................................................
When the Augustus empire fell into the crisis brought about by the Naga, a corner of the Winner continent seemed extremely quiet.
On this continent, the national power of the August Empire is in a dominant position, and the huge territory accounts for almost one-fifth of the entire continent, but this does not mean that the other kingdoms of the continent have no ability to compete with it. Actually, several countries that could have become opponents of Augustus have been dragged down by civil strife in the past 100 years, and they have completely lost the qualification to compete with them.
The Kingdom of Skoda is one of the countries on the mainland of Winna that is second only to the August Empire. Although it ranks in the top three in terms of mainland power, the overall difference between the August Empire and other countries makes this country as a whole Speaking of strength, not even a quarter of the Augustus Empire.
But just so, it is also comparable to any old powers such as Ingeway or Gilman-unlike the landlocked countries, the entire Skoda Kingdom is located at the northern end of the mainland of Winner, and the land is long and coastal. Strips, they are the most powerful naval presence on this continent. Even the Augustus dared not easily declare war on this sturdy country-its southern border was surrounded by stretches of vast mountains, which led to the The Gus Empire was unable to dispatch troops to occupy this rooted country from the land for a long time. Within a few decades, Skoda repulsed Augustus' fleet with his powerful navy and eventually avoided the spread of the war to the country.
Now, at the moment when the Naga launched raids on Haian ports of the major kingdoms, the Skoda Kingdom is still unbelievable and calm, so that all people who want this country to suffer naval losses are shocked... They don’t understand why Naga is partial. After the most developed coastal town? If seventeen ports along the coast of the Kingdom of Skoda are invaded, the resources that can be plundered will be more abundant than the other large ports on this continent—because this country that lives by the sea basically puts all resources on the coast Within the city.
In fact, the country has been prepared for any attack so far. The guards of the coastal cities faced the seemingly calm sea with unprecedented tension-not only because of the Naga’s actions in the ports of other countries. The reason is because the port here has a fleet from a distant continent.
The Ingeway Fleet represented by Princess Xia Lan is stationed here and has diplomatic negotiations.
After meeting and separating the Morpheus and Byzantine fleets on the sea, this fleet came directly to the Skoda of the Naval Power of the mainland of Wenna along the coastline of the Augustus Empire, although I would like to meet with the Byzantine envoys. The Augustus empire made a friendly visit together, but the team still decided to give up contact with this huge empire because of the temporary decision of Princess Xiaran-to be nice, this is the demeanor of the diplomatic corps, to say that it is awkward, since it was saved by the Morpheus and Byzantine navy Fortunately, you still have to be a little bit self-aware, if you are still competing with Byzantine at this time, it will be too cheap.
So Skoda reached the top country for the envoy fleet, and when they learned that there was still an imperial princess on board, the battle that King Kerke personally greeted was enough to see that he valued the envoy, but it was all The communication activities that were supposed to be carried out smoothly stopped for a week after some unpleasant reasons.
In more popular terms, this group of Skoda people is too arrogant.
In the royal palace of Skoda’s capital, Xia Lan looked out of the window in her temporary bedroom.
Her Royal Highness is not wearing the white gauze skirt that she usually keeps her manners at the moment, no cumbersome sleeves or lace, just a simple single deep robe, sitting quietly in this room specially prepared for her , Outside the window is the endless blue ocean. This scene is faced by the people of Skoda Kingdom every day. Compared with the slightly deeper coast of Ingeway and the deep blue sea water, the waves here seem to be much softer, but for no reason let Xia Lan feel Somewhat upset.
The wooden floor will always make a noise when walking on it. The rug is old and full of the unique taste of the ages. The exotic bed is far from the luxurious decoration of the Ingeway Empire, but it has been stiff because it has been washed many times. -This is the cornerstone of Skoda’s national conditions. Even with a strong navy, the whole country has no more pillar industries that can handle it. The crops are in short supply due to climate and terrain constraints, and can only be imported through maritime trade. Although Qiangsheng saved the empire from engulfing annexation, the lack of internal resources left the empire in an extremely embarrassing position. The annual trade deficit caused King Colke a headache~IndoMTL.com~ Compared to the oil-rich Augu Sri Lanka, Skoda is like a farmer, relying on his own efforts to sustain his life. There are no handmade carpets and no gold and silver wares in the eyes of the people. The plain does not seem to be a national palace. .
However, this is not the reason why Shiran’s negotiations with His Majesty King Kerk have stalled in the near future. Princess Shiran, who was tasked with the Ingeway Empire, did not treat the political marriage he was facing negatively, and the reason for the negotiation The suspension was due to the Skoda Kingdom’s reluctance to reach certain agreements with the Ingewe Empire-not all diplomatic missions will reach as smooth as the Morpheus, even if Princess Xia Lan made it clear that he was here for political marriage. His Majesty is still reluctant to make any concessions regarding the support of the offshore fleet.
Xia Lan also knows that the fleet is the foundation of this country, but the only excellent resource that the Ingeway Empire can get from here is the larger and faster ships, the rest... there is really nothing to do here. Things, she feels like a worthless vase, came here, just to seek some amount for her motherland is not a big benefit.
And the price is to confess his life to a stranger.
