Edward reached out and pressed Alan’s thumb, and shook his head: "Say the business, you must have heard something at Hoy's, otherwise you won’t know that going north is not easy. √∟Crest novel,"
Allen found a comfortable chair to sit down and said, “I thought before, this time it’s definitely not that easy going north. Not to mention the long journey. During the period, you will pass through many cities and you need to get through all the joints. We deliberately invested in the second prince’s banner. The eldest prince and the fourth prince would certainly not let us pass. But until I met Ho Yi, I didn’t know that the people and things involved in this trip to the north were far more complicated than we thought. ."
"No, Hoy has been the first to jump out to stop me. Although the old Marquis was mostly well-intentioned, he didn't mean to release the water at all. If I can't even pass his level, I can only go back obediently and continue to be my viscount."
Edward nodded and said: "I have heard about you and Hoy's fight, and the news spread faster than you and I thought. Honestly, how much did Hoy do?"
"He is six and I am eight."
"Then you..."
Alan knew what he was thinking, and shook his head and said, "If it's just a competition, Hoy will indeed have more chances to win. But if it comes to desperation, I must be the one standing last. Although we didn't directly desperate, But I know the result must be like this. There is no reason to say this kind of confidence, but the final fact will be like this. Hoy is old after all, and his family is big. I dare to fight, he may not be willing, so Hoy put it aside from the beginning Then, don’t work hard with me. On the surface, I took a huge advantage, but in fact he put down a set for me to drill, and the kind that I had to drill is really an old fox."
"But you always passed his level. This matter is very important for us to go north. At least we can clean up a bunch of unnecessary troubles."
"The same is true for Hoy. In my opinion, the pros and cons are mixed. There are fewer unnecessary troubles, and so are our cover-ups."
Edward knew what he meant. If the people in the North had no reference to Alan's strength without Hoy's action, they could still deliberately show weakness and fish in troubled waters. But now Hoy's gun has tried Alan's depth, and if someone wants to deal with them, they will naturally not be given a chance to get through. Edward said indifferently: "If this is the case, then we will kill all the way upright, until those people are scared."
Allen thought for a while and nodded: "Yes, if we can't even do this, why are we in the imperial capital."
"Speaking of this, what exactly does Hoy say about the situation in Beidu?"
"A pool of muddy water." Alan smiled bitterly, and then explained what Hoy had said.
In addition to the relationship between the crown prince and the prince fighting secretly. Behind those princes, factions are also involved. In today's empire, under Emperor Tangliou, there are two important ministers. One is the military chief, the imperial marshal Rodke who controls the two super legions; the other is the former prime minister Nebot. These two people have one character and one weapon, one left and the other right, all supported by the emperor.
The rest of the officials, headed by two people, stand on their own feet. During the period, the relationship is complicated, and it can be said clearly in non-trivial languages.
In the past few years, Rodriguez has attacked the Principality of Shadow, completely pacifying this alien kingdom west of the empire, in order to avoid future troubles. However, Tangierou never expressed his position on this matter, and Rodek's proposal was strongly opposed by the officials headed by Nedt. In recent years, Nebott has proposed a series of reforms, advocating that the lordship established by the first emperor should be eliminated, except for the marquis and above, the rest of the jazz shall not be allowed to own an army. All the armies should be gathered for the empire and centralized establishment, so as to gather the imperial force and weaken the real power of various territories.
Emperor Tangiero also did not express his position on this matter. From the posture of the emperor to discuss changes with Neboth on many occasions, it is not difficult to see that the emperor tends to be a minister from the tribe of Neboth. However, this change will undoubtedly have a huge and fatal impact on the nobles of the entire empire. Not only was Rodke strongly opposed, but even the interior of the imperial house and the four princes of the empire were dissatisfied with what Nebot did.
The prime minister moved his mouth, but what hurts was the vital interests of countless nobles. Naturally, the voices of opposition were louder than ever.
Among them, the eldest prince Hausen is backed by the military leader Rodke, and the second prince Julian is a student of Nebot. Behind the fourth prince Seves, you can see the swordsman Mason. Silhouette. The struggle between the three is not only a competition for the crown prince, but also a struggle between their own factions. Whoever becomes the crown prince ultimately affects the interests of countless people behind him, and also affects the future structure of the empire.
"Now, the princes’ secret fights are maintaining a stalemate. At this time, Julian wins over us, wanting to rely on our outside power to break this pattern. Other people also see it, so Saying that we go north is not only related to our own interests, but also to the three princes, and even the supporters behind them, and even the empire, have an extremely far-reaching influence." Allen shook his head and said: "That's what Hoy said. Whether we like it or not, when Julian finds us, we have become the eye of the storm."
Edward pondered: "In this case, can we use the relationship between the princes and factions to deal with them. Even if we are in the eye of the wind, we can find a place without wind?"
"No, no, that would be worse." Allen shook his head and said: "First of all, we have promised Julian. If we still have a vague position at this time, it will only provoke Julian's discomfort. Second, if we don't state our position. If you do, I’m afraid it will be counterproductive. For a guy who has no position, it’s not normal to replace it with you and ruin it if you don’t get it? If the three princes think this way, then we are really all enemies. "
"So we must not only obscure our position, but also reject the kindness of other princes, so that we can get Julian's greatest trust and support. In this way, we can't find a windless land in the eyes of the wind, but at least, the wind and rain Not too violent."
Edward is a smart person, and a smart person tends to cover his eyes. Fortunately, he is smart but not conceited. Hearing Allen’s words, he never objected. Instead, he nodded in agreement: "You have a good analysis. I am always accustomed to lay out from the best interests, but ignore that sometimes, we can’t never pay the price. , To get what we want, there is no such cheap thing in this world. Although you are a little stupid, you have an advantage. You can always look at things to make complex things pure, but I am the opposite."
"Are you hurting me or complimenting me?" Allen rolled his eyes.
Edward laughed without saying a word, and said: "Then the general direction can be set. We support the second prince. In short, if this road is determined to the end, there is no need to think about it. But before our eyes, there is Another question."
"What's the problem?"
Edward looked at him: "Do you recognize the way to the north?"
Allen knew immediately: "You mean we are missing a guide?"
"It's not very obvious." Edward smiled: "My route is only on paper, but neither you nor I have experience going north, so we still need to find a guide. Otherwise, we will go on our own for a year and a half. How can it become a big joke in the imperial capital."
Ellen jumped off the chair and said: "I know who to look for. Follow me."
A scream rang from this three-story building on the northwest side of Tielu Avenue.
Iron Furnace Avenue and Gun Shadow Avenue intersect, forming a very prosperous block in Yedgary. There are mostly iron shops on both sides of Tielu Street, and many famous equipment shops in the city are also located here. Gun Shadow Avenue is where the mercenary groups are concentrated. On both sides of the avenue are the office buildings of the mercenary group, and downstairs is the reception area. On Gun Shadow Avenue, you can see all kinds of mercenary groups' battle flags. These battle flags are all hung on an iron gun to show respect for Hoy, which is also a scene of Yadgar.
In this small building on Tielu Street, there is also an iron gun and a battle flag, which seems to be the office of a mercenary group. In the hall on the third floor of the small building, a sturdy man hid on the bed and yelled, and a young woman next to her had an indifferent face and was treating the man's wounds. The man murmured: "Jenny, you can't lighten it, it hurts, okay?"
The woman sutured a wound with a needle and thread, and deliberately patted it when it was over, which immediately evoked the man's screams. The woman sneered: "Oh, isn't our Lord Lick very prestigious. Last night, he fought in a shadowy fight with others and almost killed all the deputy heads of them. Would he still be afraid of this pain?"
At this moment, a voice sounded: "Forget it, Jane Flower, don't make him embarrassed. Even though Zhuying is Yadgar's ground snake, they were really bullying last night, and Lick taught them a lesson. Okay, so I don’t think they think that Bingyue is only a soft-hearted man who will cheat the son of Orlando."
Jennihua sighed and looked at their captain Fares and said: "But you almost injured half of the people who walked in the shadows. Isn't this a big deal?" /
"It's a bit big, so I went to see Son of Orlando in the morning." Fares smiled and said: "The Son of Orlando said, as long as you don't die, it's nothing. He also said, if we didn't fight hard. , It’s difficult to stand firm in the gun city."
The woman frowned and said: "That young master, don't be upset and kind, right?"
Farez said displeased: "Don’t talk nonsense, if the son of Orlando is uneasy and kind, he will find this place for us. On the day we hang the flag, if he didn’t come to join us in person, I don’t know how many mercenary groups there will be. Come to our troubles. The son of Orlando takes care of us everywhere, how can you doubt him!"
"Yes, Master Leader taught me the right way." The woman said insincerely, and Lick next to her snickered a few times.
When Rick deliberately retaliated against Jane Flower again, Rick in black clothes and black pants came to Farres and said: "There are two guests here, you'd better go meet them in person."
