Chapter 1048

At the end of the competition month, Baihuang team ushered in a new rest month.

On this day, when Bai Xiaowen routinely inspected the transfer of goods in the warehouse, he suddenly gave a light sigh.

"What's the matter?" Li Shuyi, who was guiding Xiaojun to exercise, turned her head like a cricket stirred by her tentacles.

"There are unplanned situations in the territory. The code agreed by Cecilia appears in the warehouse items."

Bai Xiaowen snapped his fingers: "I summoned Cecilia and asked about the situation."

After Bai Xiaowen's call, Cecilia in military uniform appeared in front of Bai Xiaowen.

"Dior." Cecilia hurried forward, gave Bai Xiaowen a hug, kissed her lips, and then said, "territory... No, it's the Canary empire that is out of my decision."

Bai Xiaowen awkwardly let go of Cecilia's strong and tight waist: "tell me."

Cecilia took out a letter.

The material of this letter is superior parchment, and it must be made through various processes such as incense. It not only has no mutton smell of parchment, but also exudes a quiet aroma.

Most importantly, the royal seal of the Plantagenet empire can be seen on the open fire paint of the envelope!

"A letter from the royal family of the Canary?"

Bai Xiaowen took it.

Cecilia said hurriedly, "it's Prince Nicholas... No, it should be called the letter from Nicholas IV to you. In the letter, he makes you Lord of the north and has the right to act at will in the whole Canary empire!"

Bai Xiaowen read the letter once.

The content of the letter has many rhetorical modifications and is full of the elegant style of aristocracy and royalty, but Bai Xiaowen can still see two words from it.

Urgent.

In fact, as Cecilia said, Nicholas granted Bai Xiaowen as the great lord of the north, which means that the whole North, including the black rock city that Bai Xiaowen beat last time, is Bai Xiaowen's legal territory. In addition, there is a note like order stamped with the great seal of the emperor of the Plantagenet empire!

"The holder is performing important tasks of the Empire. Officials at all levels loyal to the Canary Empire must not be embarrassed and provide them with convenience within their ability. Nicholas IV."

Originally, it was just an ordinary note, but with the emperor's seal and Nicholas's signature, the meaning was completely different. For example, it is about the imperial envoy's imperial sword, one level higher than the yellow jacket.

Let Nicholas promise such a great benefit for a simple reason.

He was in great trouble and urgently needed the support of Bai Xiaowen, the white stone Lord and the actual ruler of the North!

Bai Xiaowen also got an additional information that Nicholas had ascended the throne and changed from prince to Nicholas IV.

Bai Xiaowen got a hint of the rules of the spirit world.

"You have obtained the Charter of Nicholas IV, the leader of the Royal orthodox camp, the Canary empire."

"Your white stone collar permanent fief has been integrated into the new temporary authority."

"A: the scope of the fief is extended to the whole north land."

"B: when you use the fief order to enter the Kane plane, you can explore freely within the territory of the Canary Empire and remove the restrictions within the territory."

"Special note: the above permissions are temporary permissions. If Nicholas IV loses his power, the temporary permissions will disappear automatically."

"Note: the loss of power of Nicholas IV includes abdication, death or the collapse of the Royal orthodox camp."

Bai Xiaowen felt that the permanent land seal of BAISHILING made him emit a burning light, and then collected it. Look at that land grant, it has become a "permanent land grant for northern provinces"!

Of course, this is only temporary. If Nicholas IV loses in the power struggle, the fief order will return to its original form.

Nicholas IV, with this Charter, pulled Bai Xiaowen into his chariot, which was also a wise move.

However, Bai Xiaowen still has a lot to know. He opened his mouth and asked, "what is the situation of the Plantagenet Empire now? It should be his uncle against Nicholas IV."

Cecilia nodded: "the north is remote, and I don't know much. After the old emperor died, Prince Nicholas should have ascended the throne immediately, but his uncle gulamans tangled with a group of conservative nobles, launched a coup and ascended the throne first..."

Bai Xiaowen shook his head and said, "Prince Nicholas is not a mediocre Lord. He occupies an orthodox position and has military power. It's not so easy for that Uncle Wang to win the throne in a coup."

Cecilia said: "yes, the two sides launched the first civil war in the central province. Gulamans was completely defeated and fled in a hurry. Prince Nicholas ascended the throne and became Nicholas IV. the defeated King's uncle gulamans fled to Xisha Province..."

"How many provinces are there in the Plantagenet Empire?" Li Shuyi nodded.

Bai Xiaowen smiled gently: "the administrative division of the Plantagenet empire is very simple. The central region where the king capital is located is called the central province, with the largest area and the richest wealth. In addition, a province has been established in the East, West, North and south, and its name is also very simple. For example, the northern region where BAISHILING is located is the northern province."

Bai Xiaowen has an outstanding memory. He can clearly recall what he learned in Kane after a long time.

Cecilia, a native of Kane, is even more clear. She added: "the names of other provinces are generally related to geography. The eastern region has many plains, so it has become the original province in the East. The southern region faces the sea with many islands, waterways and seaports, which is called the South China Sea Province, while the western region is dominated by deserts and wilderness, which is called the Xisha province."

After a pause, Cecilia said, "when the old emperor was in power, he carried out a series of reforms, including recovering part of the power of the old aristocrats, abolishing some improper laws, enfewing new aristocrats, etc. these reforms were resisted by many aristocrats, and there were aristocrats in the five provinces. Xisha Province is the headquarters of the conservative aristocrats."

Bai Xiaowen understood: "Nicholas IV should follow the policy program of the old emperor and continue to weaken the aristocratic power. Then Uncle Wang gulamans should be a banner pushed by the old aristocrats who are unwilling to give up power."

"Reclaim aristocratic power?" Li Shuyi blinked. "Xiaowen should be a great aristocrat in the north now. From the perspective of interests, it seems that we shouldn't stand on the side of the prince."

"Not strictly speaking," Cecilia smiled. "The former white stone Lord is indeed an old aristocrat of the old school. He has the power to kill and kill the people in the territory. But Dior accepted the canonization of Prince Nicholas. He is a new aristocrat promoted by him. He has no right to take back the people's lives at will."

"Is that the difference?" Li Shuyi grabbed her braid.

"There are other differences," Bai Xiaowen smiled. "For example... There is no right to the first night."

"... well, it seems that the old emperor is still very wise." Li Shuyi clapped.

"Well, these are not the key points. The key point is that the old aristocrats believe that the royal family has violated their legitimate rights inherited since ancient times, so they support the confrontation between gulamans and the orthodox royal family. Now how many support rates do both sides have?" Bai Xiaowen asked Cecilia.

"In Xisha Province, most of the nobles in the province supported gulamans and sent private troops against the royal family. In addition, most of the nobles were in a wait-and-see state."
