Power and Empire Chapter 1689: In the name of Falcon (7)


"I heard that one of your regular customers here is the Duke!" Watching the fat man enter the room, Dusterenkai turned around, with a hint of curiosity on his face

"This guest, your news is really well-informed!" Upon hearing Dustrum Kay’s question, the middle-aged woman’s face was immediately full of smiles. Dustrum Kay was also a nobleman, and it was ridiculous back then. After joining the army for a while, I rarely visited these fireworks sites, but that doesn’t mean I don’t know the characteristics of these places. Many people think that it would be difficult to find a duke in the attic area. In fact, if you want to. It’s wrong. Not only is it not difficult, but even simple. You only need a question to get the answer you need.

The owner of the red light district will try to advertise that there are enough distinguished guests in his store.

And the duke who really owns a duchy like the Duke of Putao is as dazzling as the sun. Even if the owner of the red light district loses money, he will try his best to retain such a guest, whether the guest is a falcon or not. In the empire, at least this is a person who really owns the land, full strength, and the highest title. This is enough to make other attics dwarfed. This is like an invisible competition. The attics are no better than those on the surface. In the red light district, only the best attic can attract the most distinguished people!

With such a Duke’s guest, Du Stellenkai only showed curiosity. The middle-aged woman leading the way in front of him did not hesitate to point to a room on the third floor. "That is the noble Duke. The room with sheep’s heads hanging on the door of the room is the most gorgeous decoration. It can definitely give the Duke the feeling of being at home."

As if afraid that Dusterenkai would not understand, the middle-aged woman also emphasized her tone and said, "This is a duke who really owns a duchy and land. It's not the empty shells of the empire that only have titles! It's just that! Xìng is a bit weird and spends money like dirt, but he is particularly fascinated by a woman named Aviva here. This woman named Aviva can only be regarded as ordinary in appearance." The middle-aged woman's voice stopped, and she looked a little dissatisfied He curled his lips and said, "Before this weird duke arrived, even most of the guests didn't know about her, she was just a third-rate guy who brought tea and water. From Salander, there was a child before, but he died of illness. It is estimated that it is because they are Salanders that they specially attracted the dukes who have never been to Salander. As you know, Salanders are always more romantic and passionate. And the war made many Salander nobles. In trouble, who would dare to say that this woman would not be the descendant of a certain Salander noble!"

"Do you also know the war?" Du Stellenkai looked at the middle-aged woman with a sad expression. He did not expect that an old bustard in the attic would say the same.

"I was the first immigrants to reach the northwest coast two years ago! The middle-aged woman straightened her face. A rare voice said seriously, "Although I didn't see the war with my own eyes, I did I have heard that the Avengers from Salander slaughtered millions of Normans, but for the female victims of Salander who were looted because of the war. However, they also resorted to rude isolation methods to let these women who had embarrassed their Salanders fend for themselves. He is really a coward inferior to the Normans, and our Falcon’s Majesty is humane."

"These women are just victims of war. It is really stupid to punish the women of their own nation for their incompetence! I will always remember the words on the killing order issued by His Majesty Falcon! Finally saved these poor people between Salander and Normandy. Obviously, this woman named Aviva is one of them. Although she never mentioned her past identity and experience, at least I met her. At the time, you can still see the petals of the rumored Salander noblewoman!"

The face of the middle-aged woman was shining and full of admiration. She had no idea that she had just recommended a masseuse to the person she admired the most. The masseuse did not look very good, but Sheng was only 19 years old. With long fingers, tall stature, and good massage techniques, middle-aged women are not the kind of women who don’t know how to fish. She knows that to make a man full of sex, you need to relax first, and that massage girl is also her. I spent a lot of money to dig a corner from another attic. I have been specially trained since I was a child. I can definitely know when to relax a man and when to make a man nervous

"That Aviva is in the room now!"

Dusterenkai continued to ask, raising his eyebrows. He didn't care about the compliments of the middle-aged woman to the Duke of Universal. In the empire, the name of the Duke has lost its original brilliance. Since the unification war of the empire, with the momentum of destruction, the aristocratic class of Ikadiva has been wiped out in one fell swoop. For most of the Ikadiva people, the original aristocratic British have been divided by merchants and military classes. Few people still use the duke as an obvious noble name, and in the eyes of an important imperial official like Dusterenkai, the duke of a small duchy is really not enough!

"No, you are also interested in Aviva?" A hint of surprise flashed across the middle-aged woman's face. It was obvious that she had misunderstood his thoughts. She looked up and down at Dustellenkai with weird eyes, which seemed to mean It's like saying, a very handsome young man, how could this be a good one. Obviously, she thought of Dustlenko as the kind of young man who felt that she could play with the mistress of a genuine foreign duke and felt extremely exciting. , There are quite a few people like this in the weird red light district, even those with more perverted hobbies, middle-aged women have also seen them,

She smiled at the corner of her mouth." Young man, Aviva is not in the Duke’s room now. Although the Duke spends the night here, he never keeps a woman in the room. She will leave after that kind of thing, but Aviva is also now You can’t pick up guests because the guests haven’t left yet. This is the rule. If you’re interested, you can come during the day. I can arrange for you, but you must pay a deposit. After all, there are many people waiting to see Aviva! "

"So, there is only the Duke in the room now?"

Du Stellenkai didn't want to correct this, he just breathed a sigh of relief secretly at the moment,

It seems that this general duke is also a bit interesting. Not only must he be able to hide the sight of Gangfei, but also wait for the olive branch from the Falcon Empire. It is estimated that in this crevice, it is also quite difficult, even at the expense of self-deprecating status, come up with such a way to make a look of depression, such a person, or there really is a place worthy of the empire’s investment,

According to the information sent back by Salon. The Principality of Universal is at most one-third the size of the southwest, but the geographical position is good, less than 200 miles from the capital of the Congo-Fei Empire. If the empire wants to open the bottleneck of stagnation for half a year in commerce, it wants to completely open the Congo-Fei The vast market of the imperial economic circle, and the advantage of the universal Principality’s presence in the core area of ​​the coast of Congo is enough to make the empire consider such investment. Universal set can become a support point for the imperial merchants to squeeze into the economic circle of Congo, allowing the empire’s business network to penetrate into Congo, a place not much smaller than the imperial market, without hindrance.

For Saron’s suggestion, Dusterenkai was somewhat surprised besides admiration, this butcher who has always been accustomed to murder. The fierce and ferocious head of the Imperial Army, even after serving as the governor of the southwest, he immediately began to think about something more far-reaching. This feeling was like a butcher with a cao knife. But it's as weird as people are eager to discuss the language about the beautiful poems, the most important thing is. The butcher’s poems suddenly became so that the most researched scholars began to be cautious

"Master Duke, can I come in?" Du Stellenkai came to the door of the Duke’s room and knocked on the door with his hand. There was a turning sound from inside. It seems that the Duke of Universal is also inside. Didn't sleep

"Who is it", a slightly hoarse voice came from inside

"I am a servant, and my master has a small deal to talk to the Duke!" Dusterenkai replied

"Servant?" The door was opened from the inside, revealing a somewhat pale middle-aged face. He looked up and down at the natural-looking Dustlenko, his eyes flashed with surprise, as if Who was surprised by such a calm servant, opened the door and said

"Come in, your temperament is not like a servant. If you have to say it, you will be more like a nobleman. It's really unexpected to see someone like yours in such a region!"

"My Lord Duke is really joking. In our Falcon Empire, nobility is not a commendatory term!"

Dusterenkai laughed and walked into the room. Although the middle-aged man was thinner than the one in the portrait passed back by Saron, he was still somewhat similar. Out of caution, Duss Trenkee did not directly identify himself, but sat down opposite the Duke of Putu

"Your Lord Duke hasn't rested so late!"

Dusterenkai looked left and right. The room was indeed gorgeous. The six-meter-high arched relief fireplace was still burning, and the warm fire flickered in the empty room. Through the high windows, you can see the black sky outside, and a few squares of gold are reflected on the white walls. A whole piece of Casmar cashmere carpet with red background and white pattern covers the whole room

On the other side of the carpet, a middle-aged man is taking a bottle of red wine from a wine cabinet and walking over with two glasses,

"It’s really not accustomed to the weather here, maybe because it’s closer to the north, it always makes people reluctant to leave the warm fireplace, making you laugh!" The middle-aged man put the cup on the table in the double room. , Slowly pour the wine into it, and casually asked, "You just said that there is a small deal, I don’t know what it is!"

"Actually, it's nothing. My master has a piece of land in the northwest. I don't know if the Duke is interested!" Dusterenkai stretched out his finger with a ruby ​​ring in a casual manner and held up the wine glass in front of him. Taking a sip, the luster of the red sè made the middle-aged man who was about to pick up the wine glass startled for a moment.

"Northwest?" The eyes of the middle-aged man immediately heated up, and he almost couldn't wait to ask. "What do you mean by land? If it is good enough, as long as I can give, I will not hesitate. But now..."

Thinking of his precarious situation, the middle-aged man showed a trace of hesitation and pain on his face, and said bluntly, "My position is in danger. If you want that piece of land, you must be able to guarantee my position!"

"For my master, the Duke’s request is nothing! However, any transaction requires sincerity. Even if it is to help, we also need to know if your Excellency is qualified!" Kai stood up with a smile at the corner of his mouth, pretending to unintentionally take off the ruby ​​ring of his finger, throw it into the wine glass, and put it on the table preciously. "My master said, Lord Duke will know what to do!"

"It seems. It must be so after all!"

The Duke of Putao looked at the wine glass in a daze. The wine in the glass was mixed with rubies. It looked even more red as blood. Until Du Stellenkai left, Duke Putao hesitated for more than ten minutes before standing up solemnly, staring at the dark sky outside the window, smiled bitterly at the corner of his mouth, as if he had decided something. Determination,

"Come here. Get my coachman! I need to leave in an urgent matter. He should be in the attic next door." Duke Putao walked to the door and shouted to the servant outside

"Yes, Lord Duke!" A servant left quickly, and ten minutes later, the sleepy Duke coachman walked in cursingly,

He is indeed in the attic next door. The task given to him by Gang Fei is to keep him monitoring the Duke’s every move in the Falcon Empire, but for more than ten days in the red light district full of women, and the Duke always stays out all night, in the cold winter. , The coachman finally relaxed his inseparable surveillance. The most indispensable thing here is the Comfortable Nest. Anyway, there is a decent loft next door. For this master who will be imprisoned immediately after returning to China, he really lacks even the most basic fears.

"My Lord Duke!" The coachman yelled several times at the door. But there is not the slightest echo in it

"What's going on, it's a dying person. Still putting on airs like this!" The coachman groaned very dissatisfied, and pushed the door with his hand. The door was slightly opened by a crack, and the coachman's face was stunned. After a while, he suddenly became pale. The guy wouldn't run away. With these thoughts, the coachman pushed the door open without hesitation. The sight in front of him made him stunned. The Duke was sitting neatly in the room. On the sofa, a rare face was calm, he glanced at the coachman who rushed in, and said calmly, "Li Luo, I haven't run yet. Speaking of which, you have been with me for 3 years!"

"The little ones are just afraid of the adult’s accident, so..." The coachman was at a loss and stood there blankly, some not knowing how to answer. The Duke’s peace gave him a strange feeling. It seems that all his secrets are exposed to the duke’s faint sight, this feeling makes his body tremble slightly,

"Don't worry, I can't die, at least I won't die now!"

The Duke sneered at the corner of his mouth, stretched out his hand to his coachman, and made a gesture of "Sit down, following me this angry Duke has also suffered a lot for the past few years. I remember your The second son is about to be born, and the delivery date will be next week!"

"Yes, my lord!"

The coachman looked embarrassed and did not dare to sit down. He could not help but hesitate in his heart when he heard the Duke’s talk. Three years ago, he was just a street wanderer. It was the Duke who saw him pitifully. He served as a coachman, although he also had to roll his eyes, but at least there is no problem with food and clothing after the Duke. He married his own wife and had children. From the initial touch, he became numb. I don’t know when, everything changed, or just It started from the day when the other party came to the door to force the debt with the IOU of the gambling debt, and the day when he put the dagger against his neck,

Own host changed to Gang Fei!

"Can you tell me, which eyes are you who have just been set beside me?" The Duke of Putao looked at the ugly coachman, took the wine glass on the table, and didn't care that there was still inside. The red gemstone, took a sip, the faint coldness melted in his lips, and went down his throat, causing him to cough uncomfortably, but this feeling caused him to make a clucking sound from the fingers holding the wine glass.

"I... I don't know what the adults mean!" The coachman trembled, his face turned gray

"Leiro, there is nothing to feel guilty about, before you, my servant, my mistress, and my captain of the guard, they are all just like you!" The Duke of Putao smiled bitterly and took a deep breath. Standing up from the seat, his face was a bit hideous. "From the moment I returned to the Principality, it was clear to me what I was doing. The reason why they pretended not to know anything was because they knew, I will always be under their sight. As long as I am in the Gangfei circle of influence, I will not do anything...!"

"So, please forgive me!" The Duke of Putao suddenly turned his sleeves, revealing a sharp short dagger inside

"My lord, what are you doing?" The coachman was completely stunned. At this moment, the bitter cold light of the dagger shone on his somewhat pale face, with a bit of determination and fierceness, Duke of Buddhism. A dagger pierced his ribs suddenly, the intense pain even made him short-term suffocation, two eyeballs even bulged out, almost exhausted the strength of his whole body, exhaling in a big mouth,

The blood-stained hand of the Great Duke released the handle of the dagger, and a red foam appeared at the corner of his mouth. He suddenly pointed at the coachman who had no idea what was going on. He shouted with a ferocious face, "Come on, catch." Assassin!" Then he ran out of the door covered in blood, screaming all the way, and the stern shouts immediately attracted a lot of people

"What's wrong?"

"The Duke was assassinated! I heard that the Duke’s coachman did it"

Soon, the regional security team arrived within ten minutes. What they saw was the Duke of Putu who fell in a pool of blood, and a completely stupid "killer!"

"There is a big problem this time!" The sheriff was stunned by the sight in front of him~ IndoMTL.com~ His face was ugly and wanted to die. The Duke of Pu Tao is too famous in this red light district, and all Everyone knows that the Duke came to the Falcon Empire to perform foreign affairs. That is to say, a foreign official of another country was assassinated in his own jurisdiction. This fact will definitely be presented to His Majesty Falcon.

"Come on, protect the scene immediately, and catch this bold guy!" The sheriff pointed at the coachman, and the soldiers rushed forward. This is not a sloppy time. No one noticed it. In this attic. In another room of, a young man with a gentle appearance is watching this scene peacefully

"This general duke is really cruel to himself!"

Du Stellenkai took a deep breath. God calmed down. The sincerity that the Falcon Empire needs is simple, that is, Duke General must direct and perform an assassinated play. After all, the assassination took place in In the territory of the Falcon Empire, according to the principle of benefiting the most benefits, it is easy to point the main envoy behind the assassination to the inside of the Principality.

Someone assassinated the envoy of another country in the empire. Only under the anger of His Majesty Falcon can the empire formally intervene in the chaos of the Principality in the name of investigation under the sight of Gangfei!
