Just as the woman returned to the civilized world with the powerful holy sword, the capital of the kingdom of ANOYA was busy holding a welcoming ceremony.
To be exact, it was a reception dinner specially held by Queen Victoria to welcome the mission sent by Emperor Harrison.
Although she has enough military power to destroy the old-fashioned army of the other side on the front battlefield, many political problems can not be solved entirely by violence.
In particular, she could not abandon the traditional morality and values, and was not willing to let the bottom people in the occupied areas learn to fear and obey the new rulers through cruel massacres.
"Good evening, your majesty, on behalf of your father, I would like to extend my most sincere greetings to you. Before he left, he specially told me to show enough respect. Because it is not easy for any monarch to pull a kingdom back from the brink of destruction. He appreciates your courage and courage, and your desperate approach in times of crisis "A very young and handsome man bowed down.
As a prince, especially the son of Harrison the great, he obviously began to receive all kinds of court education from a very young age, so he is impeccable in both etiquette and behavior.
Look at the ladies and noble ladies with admiration and obsession in their eyes. You can see how popular he is with the opposite sex.
Unfortunately, these so-called "charm", "demeanor" and "temperament" do not affect the same young queen at all.
Vilia just smiled demurely and replied, "thank you for your greetings. I'm very surprised and honored to be praised by the OROS lion. But I believe he sent you not just to say these compliments?"
"No, of course not. But don't you think it's a bit bad to say now? How about I invite you to dance?" the prince offered his right hand.
His suggestive teasing undoubtedly attracted isorte's attention.
But the old man didn't mean to stop it. Instead, he was interested in observing Victoria's reaction. He seemed to want to find out whether the rapidly growing queen would be dazzled by the so-called "magic of love" like all women.
We should know that women are always perceptual rather than rational. No matter how smart a woman is, once she falls in love, she will be like a moth to the fire, completely unable to stop other people's advice, and will not wake up until she loses everything.
"Dancing?"
Villea raised her eyebrows slightly, with a smile on her face.
If she had been a princess before, she would have agreed to each other's invitation, even had some close contact in the process of dancing, and then privately investigated the background of the prince in front of her, and regarded him as one of the objects of future marriage.
After all, in this feudal world, the princess is a tool to achieve some political goals, so the choice of marriage objects is really limited.
Any princess with a little brain will have several good goals as soon as possible before she grows up.
All kinds of dances, banquets and salons are actually an alternative blind date meeting rather than ordinary social intercourse.
But since the accession to the throne, the situation in Vilia has become somewhat complicated.
On the one hand, she is still an unmarried girl. She urgently needs a legal husband to help her remaining heirs and quickly stabilize the turbulent people.
On the other hand, as a queen, her marriage must not be decided casually, let alone marry whoever she likes. Instead, she needs to weigh the gains and losses of interests from the perspective of politics and rights.
In particular, marrying a foreign prince is one of the taboos, because it can easily lead to chaos in the already contradictory Kingdom, and even lead to the interference of external forces.
Victoria undoubtedly understood this clearly, and believed that the other party should also understand it.
This means that the seemingly gentle prince in front of him is actually a bait, a fatal trap to lure himself into the abyss of doom.
"That's right! Dance! For the sake of the long-standing friendship between our two countries and my personal admiration for your beauty and wisdom." the prince deliberately pretended not to see the angry eyes of many noble male members of the Kingdom around him and continued to raise his arm politely.
However, it's a pity that Vilia didn't even have the slightest intention of holding each other's arm, smiled and refused: "Sorry, I don't want to dance now, at least not until you tell me your intention. In addition, I think it's necessary to warn you not to try to make small moves in my court, or even if you are the son of OROS lion, I will make you pay the price, okay?"
When the prince heard this sentence, his face suddenly became a little ugly. He tried to keep his ugly appearance from being exposed. He nodded gently: "I understand! Please rest assured."
"Very good! Now, please enjoy the party. I'm sure those ladies and ladies who are full of interest will give you a wonderful night."
With this ironic remark full of ridicule, Victoria smiled and turned back to her own position, with naked contempt in her eyes.
After sitting down and sipping the cold wine, she asked without looking back: "what does the great Harrison want to do? Don't tell me what kind of male tricks he is going to show me, it's too embarrassing."
"No, of course not. The prince is just a cover. What he really wants to do is to send a few needed talents to the nobles preparing to launch a rebellion with the help of this mission. In this way, these scattered fools can be effectively organized and used to create more trouble for you." isolt explained carelessly.
"Rebellion? Those guys can't help it at last?" Victoria clenched her fist subconsciously, and the angry flame in her pupils flashed away.
For the upcoming civil war, she has made enough preparations and arrangements to uproot these die hards who resist their own reform and prepare for the next centralization of power.
The more participants, the larger the scale of the launch, the more beneficial it will be to the whole country.
As for how many families will perish in this rebellion, it doesn't matter to her.
Anyway, clearing the internal hidden dangers has always been what Vilia is eager to do, but dare not do, for fear of accidentally triggering a collective rebound of the aristocrats.
But like now, the nobles are divided into two factions. The most powerful faction temporarily chooses to be neutral and wait-and-see, which is simply the best time to start
