Chapter 693

The next morning, a raven flew to the west of the empire through the hand of maerwin.

The former head of the gold regiment, the governor of the western border, MIS toin, is about to take office as the fourth former prime minister.

On the other side, the imperial fleet on the other side of the narrow sea left telosi, lined up and drove to their next stop.

Reese.

But the news of the arrival of the imperial fleet in Rhys caused a panic because a rumor spread all over Rhys not long ago.

It is rumored that Asha grejoy, the Iron Throne Messenger, encountered a carefully planned assassination in telosi. If the Iron Throne messenger was not lucky enough, he might have died in telosi. It is rumored that the mastermind of this assassination was Rhys's governor's Council.

Because of the tension between Reese and telosi, the two sides have reached the brink of war on the sovereignty of the disputed land.

The Reese people hope to assassinate the messenger of the iron throne, provoke the relationship between the Iron Throne and telosi, and then get the support of the Empire and successfully monopolize the disputed land.

However, the Rhys did not kill Asha grejoy, but let the telosi find out the truth.

Now, the great king of telosi is dispatching troops to actively prepare materials. At the same time, he has signed treaties with several mercenary regiments. The whole city-state has entered a state of war. Warships are densely distributed in the port. It seems that he is about to send troops to attack Rhys, and the war between the two sides is imminent.

The imperial fleet happened to visit Reese at this juncture, which is difficult to avoid imagination.

After all, the fleet has 2000 elite imperial soldiers who have fought the war of conquest. If there is a sudden disaster, even the trading city states will suffer heavy losses.

Rhys is one of the nine free trade city states. Its geographical location is located on the southern coast of ESSOS, Southeast of TIROS and west of volantis.

It is a city built on rocks, surrounded by the sea with frequent storms. At the same time, the whole city-state spans several islands, composed of a main city port and several prosperous satellite islands, which are also singing and dancing.

But now Reese is in the governor's Council.

Twelve governor Rees sat around a huge circular conference table. Some of them were fat, others were thin, ranging in age from young to old, and behind them stood their most loyal slaves.

But there is no doubt that they all have blue eyes, white blond curls and white skin. Even the elderly are well maintained, dressed delicately and appropriately, and look very gentle and polite.

Because the ancestry of the ancient warelian freedom fortress is still very strong in them, the closer you get to that land, the more you can see the warelian race.

"I have received information from the informant that the Iron Throne fleet is ready to cooperate with telosi's army to attack Rhys."

At this time, a young governor Rhys with long blond hair said.

"The Iron Throne should not easily get involved in the war between telosi and us."

Another governor Reese, who was a little older and gray but still well maintained, said anxiously.

"But what if they have the so-called 'evidence'? Lord Hardt."

The young governor retorted without hesitation.

"We know we didn't do that, but the telosi didn't think so. They persuaded the messenger of the iron throne to attack Rhys."

"We must protect ourselves!"

"Everybody!"

The young governor Rhys stood up, and all governor Rhys present looked at each other, then all looked up at each other, and one of them couldn't help asking.

"Lord Humphrey hattal."

"What can you do?"

Humphrey hattal was the heir of the hattal family in the old town, and count Leighton hattal was the fourth and youngest son.

He survived when Humphrey hattal fled to Rhys by boat long before Donne's army broke through the old town last year.

All his three brothers died in the battle, and Humphrey hetal became the only heir to the hetal family.

The heirs of the young Hatal family fled to Rhys, but they didn't come empty handed. He packed as much as he could, which brought a lot of wealth to the Hatal family.

With this huge wealth, Humphrey quickly gained a foothold in Rhys. In addition, there were people inside and outside secretly, acquired several industries at one stroke, and finally became one of Rhys's youngest trade governors and qualified to enter Rhys's governor's Council.

Humphrey had a firm foothold in Reese, but after all, he was a newcomer, so he didn't have much say in the governor's Council.

Where there are people, there are Jianghu, not to mention the governor's Council. Not every governor has the same right to speak, but also according to the forces behind them.

But Humphrey was not discouraged. Instead, he dormant and kept a low profile. Until now, he stood up and became the focus of everyone present.

"Of course, Lord Colom!"

When Humphrey heard another governor ask, he answered without hesitation. It was obvious that he had already prepared the abdominal case.

The Hatal family and the tangaryan family are deeply entangled, and the two sides have been married several times in history, so the governor of Humphrey also has a bit of the shadow of Valerians in his appearance.

He is handsome, with white skin, blue eyes and long blond hair. He looks like a native of Rhys. After more than a year, he has learned to speak valerian without any obstacles in communication.

"I've made contact with Salado Thorne."

"The pirate governor expressed his willingness to form an alliance with Reese against the enemy from telosi."

"He only seeks Reese's support for him."

It was not long ago that Salado Thorne launched a coup attack in mill, killing two other governors supported by telosi and volantis and the big pirate who dominated mill.

Under his hand, there is a powerful fleet crossing the narrow sea and a large number of sailors familiar with naval warfare. Therefore, the pirate governor is willing to help Reese and will definitely become a strong aid.

However, the voice of Humphrey hattal fell and immediately exploded in Rees's governor's Council.

"What?"

"This traitor!"

The face of the old governor who first spoke was full of anger.

"No! No!"

"The first time he can betray Reese, he can betray us the second time!"

"That's right."

"Intolerable."

The rest of governor Rhys agreed, but only Humphrey hattal and a fat governor sitting opposite him remained silent.

They exchanged a vague look and then separated.

But obviously they had expected this reaction before.
