Proof of the Sun King

On the other side, at the Royal Hotel in Brunswick, Ryan and the others finished their dinner and were sitting around the fire watching the snow, with snowflakes fluttering outside the window. Brunswick was still in the midst of the Winter Veil holiday. At the end of February, the snow will not melt.

The two children in the room happily played together. Although Devonhill was still very young, he often asked Sylvia to help him up, but the little guy learned very quickly. He half crawled and half walked, following his brother's Behind the butt, shouting loudly brother brother.

Frederick could also feel a strong sense of intimacy from Devon Hill. The little boy played with his brother and was crazy.

The people around the fire were chatting about some topics. Both Ryan and Sulia focused their attention on Emilia. Now, as the duchess of the empire, Ai, who holds the titles of the three top nobles Milia said the most. After staying in Nur for two years, in fact, Emilia encountered a lot of depressing things. If she hadn't been relying on her thoughts of Ryan and her son's support, she might have died long ago. Can't help but go to Britannia to find Ryan.

Between words, the Imperial Countess couldn't help revealing some secrets of the Empire. Ryan and Suria often smiled and said nothing after hearing it, but they kept it in mind.

Emilia reluctantly said that she was favored when she returned to Nuer, and the two most supportive of her were Nuer's two elite troops, the Nuer Iron Armored Army and the Black Stone Guard, followed by Nuer's Black Lady, the Saint of Death. The Amethyst Academy of the great wizard Elspeth von Draken, and finally, Nuer's official sanctuary powerhouse Theodore Bruckner also supported Emily on behalf of Nuer's more than a dozen knights Asian domination.

But as Emilia said, she is not as good as Ryan after all, and the nobles of Nur will only find her when the city council is arguing endlessly and when there is a major matter that needs to be consulted for her opinion and let her decide.

And Emilia is very smart. Lane's little maid has accumulated a lot of experience in handling internal affairs under the influence of Ryan's years of experience. Every time the Countess encounters a problem, she can solve it relatively perfectly, reconcile it in the middle, and Making it acceptable to both parties reinforces her authority at court.

Then there is, Emilia can always pull the big list.

That is, a very large arms order.

In the past two years, on the Brittany side alone, relying on Ryan's relationship, Emilia has drawn a huge arms order of more than 30,000 kroner for the Noor Gun Factory.

Because of this, Ryan was given the title "Nur's close friend" in Nur.

Then there is the Ash Legion of Forgan recently. With Ryan's intermediary, Forgan placed a huge arms order of more than 50,000 gold kronor, the amount of which made the entire Nuer stunned. This guy is simply here to help Nuer clear his inventory. Yes, the entire Nur's munitions warehouse has been swept away. The Nur gun factory is currently producing at full speed to supply Fugan's needs. In the old world, only the Nur gun factory has the ability to produce in a short period of time. Completed such a huge order in time.

Fugen still said something, not afraid that I have no money, but I am afraid that you Nur do not.

And for an industrial city like Nur, what does a series of huge orders mean, needless to say?

Therefore, the little maid is respected and loved in Nur, and her life is not bad.

"So how is Nur's relationship with Brunswick now?" Surya is still concerned about this. The female knight took off her high-heeled boots and wore a pair of long black silk legs. She sat side by side with Ryan, and Surya In fact, she is not very afraid of the cold, but she is obviously happy to substitute herself into the warm and friendly atmosphere.

The long-sleeved duchess, who was good at dancing, initiated the "fireside chat" event when Lane went out to fight. The female knight often invited people from the outside world, including nobles, businessmen, free people, and even many serfs who worked in person, to invite them to the castle. Inside, they had a cordial conversation and answered questions by the fireplace in the reception room. The Duchess was dignified, elegant, graceful, and approachable. Relying on this unpretentious relaxed and harmonious atmosphere, Surya established a line between nobles and serfs. The stable communication bridge and strong affinity have won people's understanding and respect.

In a sense, Mrs. Surya's image is deeper into the hearts of all the residents of the whole territory than Ryan. If Ryan is as breathtaking as a mountain, then Surya is as refreshing as a trickle. .

Compared to Surya, Emilia is a little more tender, and the way the little maid goes to power is to never leave her electoral palace.

"It's alright, Karl Franz seems to have thought about the problem too simply." Emilia was a little amused: "Nur theoretically falls under the jurisdiction of the Emperor of the Empire, but it is a free city after all. When the dukeship was vacant, the city council was already in a self-governing environment. Carl felt that I had a good relationship with his family. My arrival would allow Noor to obey his court in Brunswick. I don’t even think about it. I returned to Nur. Nur has a ruler, and the city council will not listen to Karl’s orders. Am I going to fight against the city council for him? My existence at most is to improve the emperor in Nur a little influence.”

"But it's better than nothing." Ryan looked at Frederick who was playing: "At least he got a godson."

"The Nuer's sense of identity with the empire comes more from the savior Ludwig, which is his hometown after all." Emilia stretched out white satin gloves to hold her beautiful and charming face, and complained: " As for Karl Franz, the Nuer are not interested in him at all, or in other words, the Nuer and Rick are different in that they are not interested in everything outside, and generally despise all outsiders."

"And what about Wesson's collar?" Surya asked, the female knight was interested in another title of the little maid.

"Historically, Nuer and Wessenland were not one body, and now they can be merged because I have both titles at the same time." Emilia was obviously a little tangled when talking about this: "The fact is, Wessonland People have never regarded the Nuer as a compatriot in a province. They despise and resolutely despise the luxurious style and arrogant attitude of the Nuer, and think that the small townspeople who love to do nothing are the worms of the empire, and the Nuer also despise the poverty of Wessenland. And all day is to use guerrilla and ambush tactics to deal with greenskins and beastmen, for the Nuer, muskets, heavy artillery, steam tanks, line shooting and knight group charge are the unique romance of war."

"Hahahaha!" Ryan couldn't help laughing, Duke Mousillon shook his head with a wry smile, and he didn't say anything else.

The dark elf was wearing a black and white maid outfit and white thick pantyhose sitting on the other side of Ryan, leaning on Ryan's back and putting his arms around his neck from behind, Olika smiled weirdly: "What a stupid human, put the question Why make it so complicated, it's very simple, launch a war of conquest, and all those who lose will become slaves."

"Hahahaha!" Ryan laughed even happier.

"What's so funny! You're still laughing!" Ryan's laughter aroused Emilia's dissatisfaction, and the little maid raised a slender straight leg wrapped in black velvet pantyhose, and grabbed the slippers on her silk feet , threw it directly at Ryan's face, and the Imperial Countess was a little furious: "Do you know how much energy I spent trying to balance the people of the two territories to keep them from infighting? I'm not you, you are in Brittany now. Ya can solve the problem with one sentence, but I can't!"

Ryan reached out to hold the slippers, and the duke was still laughing: "I understand you, Emilia, your temper has grown a lot in the past two years!"

"Humph!" Emilia snorted resentfully: "This is all forced out, too much talk will only make people bullied."

Sulia took Ryan's hand and was about to say something when heavy footsteps suddenly came from the door.

"Who?" The head maid Sylvia was a little strange. It was almost seven o'clock in the evening. Who would make a sudden visit at this time?

Careful Sylvia thought for a moment. This is the Imperial Royal Hotel. At this time, there are not many people who can visit directly without disturbing the guards and Ryan's valet and old guards. She decided to wait and see.

Sure enough, there was a sound of the door opening soon. It was obvious that Ryan's valet knights and old guards heard the movement, but after they just said a few words to the person, they immediately returned to their room and closed the door.

Soon, the door rang: "Dong~dong~ Is anyone there?"

"Who is it please?"

"Protector of the Empire, antagonist of darkness, heir to all the sacred heritage of Charlemagne from the mountains to the sea, Emperor himself and sons of emperors, Elector of Rikerland and Grand Prince of Rikerland, Grand Duke of Brunswick , Karl Franz is here." The visitor officially announced a small number of his names.

The door opened, and Ryan, Suria, and Emilia hurried out to greet them: "Welcome!"

Emperor Karl Franz walked in from outside wearing a suit of purple and gold color matching. To everyone's surprise, in addition to Emperor Karl Franz, his queen Helena also came. A mature and beautiful woman with a slightly plump figure, with long blond hair, wearing a heavy woolen coat and a long skirt studded with emeralds.

What surprised Ryan even more was that Emperor Karl Franz was holding a boy who looked about seven or eight years old. The boy was wearing a tight trumpet officer's dress with a wide, In a robe printed with a skull, an iron cross and a laurel crown, he looks very similar to Emperor Carl, with a tiger head and a head, and a pair of eyes with a slight hostility.

The servant at the back was holding a little girl of about three years old in her arms. The little girl was not afraid of strangers, and stared at Ryan and others generously.

"Godfather! Godfather!" Before Ryan could say anything, his eldest son Frederick shouted happily, and the little boy trotted unsteadily to the emperor: "Good evening, godfather!"

"Hehe~" Karl Franz hugged Ryan's son right away. The emperor didn't put on any air at this time, but lovingly rubbed his stubble on Frederick's little face: "French Redrick, isn't Brunswick having fun!"

"It's fun, there's father, mother, godfather, and Grandpa Ludwig and Uncle Galt!" The stubble made little Frederick scream, and the little boy was even more excited. Compared with Ryan, Little Frederick is obviously closer to Karl Franz, after all, the two sides meet more often.

This made Ryan a little unhappy, so the Duke took the initiative to speak: "Your Majesty the Emperor, you really brought me a big surprise!"

"I hope it doesn't bother you." The emperor smiled and put down Frederick, and he waved his hand: "This is an informal family visit, don't be restrained, you are not a duke, and I am not an emperor, I just think we fought This is my wife, Helena, this is my son, King Luitpold II, this is my daughter, Anna."

"Hello!" This is the first time Ryan has met the eldest son of the imperial queen Helena and Karl Franz, Luitpold II. From the performance of his family, the emperor's family is quite happy. of.

It seems that there have been rumors in the imperial court that Emperor Karl Franz was a strict wife, because the emperor has not had a female courtier since his marriage, and he has only two children, all by his wife Helena. out.

His eldest son, Luitpold, was the name of his father, the last Emperor of the Empire, so this little boy is generally known as Luitpold II.

"Come on, son, let me introduce to you, this is Ryan Malcador, Duke Musillon, the god-chosen champion of the lady of the lake, a hero of mankind, who has killed countless powerful enemies, and has been honored and famous throughout the world. The old world." Emperor Carl held his eldest son's hand, pointed at Ryan and smiled: "Didn't you always want to see him? Father brought you here today!"

The emperor's tone was calm, but it seemed to be a little different. What was the difference only gave people a feeling that he couldn't tell the truth. Ryan was still a little strange. I saw the seven or eight-year-old prince's eyes lit up, and he walked up quickly. , first saluted Ryan, then raised his head, his eyes were a little less hostile, and with a smile, he said seriously: "Lord Ryan, you are a hero of mankind, I have grown up listening to your heroic deeds since I was a child! It's an honor to meet you today!"

After speaking, the prince raised his head, his eyes were full of little stars, just like a fanatic who finally saw his idol, and who was in line with all his fantasies.

Looking at Frederick, who is closer to Karl Franz, and Luitpold II, who admires him~www.wuxiamtl.com~ Ryan's heart is unspeakably awkward and strange, and it feels very uncomfortable. , is also very strange.

Raising his head, Ryan saw that Karl Franz had the same expression. The two fathers looked at each other, and suddenly there was a sympathy for each other, and everything was in a silent tacit understanding.

That's called a man's tacit understanding.

The two sides introduced their families in turn.

"Emmanoli, you are indeed here!" The emperor smiled at Emilia.

"You can be here, why can't I?" Emilia waved her hand impatiently: "You are the godfather, he is the biological father of the child."

The emperor smiled ambiguously, and said nothing. Surya, Emilia, and Helena, the three most powerful women in the human kingdom, bumped into each other, and Surya tacitly took them to see her. Collection, leaving Carl and Ryan sitting by the fireside.

"I knew you would come." Ryan's face was calm.

"I came as a friend, not an emperor." Karl Franz looked at the flames in the fireplace, and the emperor was silent for a while: "I just don't know, do you consider me a friend?"

"Is there a difference?" Ryan said with a smile: "It's not the same. We are allies, we are friends, and we must be friends. If one day we are not allies, then we can't even be friends."

"Oh~ also." The emperor not only smiled after hearing this, yes, some things are inseparable. He is, so why not Ryan?

"Since this is the case, then I will ask you a question as a friend." The emperor pondered for a while and said: "Assuming you are the emperor of the empire now, facing the candidates competing for the three royal chief wizards, the Guangming Academy is the highest court. Chang Otto, Gehrman, the former chief wizard and supreme dean of the Flame Academy, and the newly emerging great alchemist Geert, how would you choose?"

"Um……"
