Chapter 643

When her father gave all the court magicians to herself, Kalina was really shocked!

Court magician... This is the oldest and most mysterious force guarding the royal family!

According to the Royal custom, court magicians are always under the direct command of the emperor! Even occasionally, when the emperor is old, he will make the magician obey the young prince instead. But most of the young princes who are appointed to lead the court magicians are regarded as the heir to the throne!

To give such an important force to a princess is really an unprecedented undertaking in the thousand years since the founding of the Roland empire!!

Because, according to tradition, although the princess is royal, but after all, women have to marry out, so, generally speaking, it is also regarded as "outsiders".

Kalina understood her father's intention in an instant.

Such entrustment, of course, is meant to compensate itself. But in addition, there is also the intention to strengthen their own strength!

After all, since I have been given such a heavy burden, in order to effectively assist my brother Charlie in the future, if I don't have any power in my hand, I'm just a princess with no power, it's not enough.

But if you have a group of powerful magicians in your hand, who will be loyal to you to the death and only obey your own command, then... It's very different!

A gallop, with a supreme order from the imperial headquarters, to the eastern fortress of the northern front.

After several months of intensive repair, the fortress, which was once occupied by the enemy, has recovered to its former scale.

The galloping messenger sent the military order to the prefecture commander's mansion in the fortress, and reported the order from the imperial capital to the supreme commander of the eastern front, Duke tulip.

Dewey

The Duke came back in a hurry a few days ago. This time, Dewey left secretly, taking the Griffin knight with him. But the Griffin Knight came back by himself. The Duke of tulip left the front line, and the news was kept strictly confidential.

It was only a few days ago that the Duchess finally came back, which relieved everyone.

But... It seems that everyone feels that, your highness, it seems that something... Is different!

The first difference is... It's obvious that the Duke has become a lot more silent. He seems to be silent. He became serious and silent.

When he came back, the Duchess still had two girls and a man with him. No one knew who they were. After the Duchess entered the commander's mansion, they never showed up again.

However, according to private information, a certain officer from the imperial capital recognized it. One of the young girls who came back with the Duchess was the female warrior who was once in the limelight of the "world's first martial arts contest" in the imperial capital!

However, the message could not be confirmed.

The second difference is that the Duke seems to have some strange illness

I don't dare to spread it around, but it's from the commander's office. After his return, the Duchess seldom appeared in public or spoke.

But when he was alone in private, he seemed to like to shut himself in the room. think aloud.

What's more, I don't know if the adult is suffering from any strange disease. When he talks to himself, he is suddenly calm and excited, and even quarrels with himself.

It's like... Schizophrenia?

Well, it's like this. However, no one dares to say that.

There was a servant in the commander's house. I once overheard Dewey talking to himself with a big tree in his arms in the yard, whispering and shouting, and his words were very strange.

"Ares, you coward! Coward

"Artemis, you are blindfolded by hatred."

"Two gods, stop arguing. I'm really going to collapse..."

It's a weird self talk. As if the Duke of tulip split into three different personalities. Often you and yourself can quarrel all day.

In the end, Dewey was helpless. He could only send all the servants who took care of him in his house, leaving only his loyal old housekeeper, madder, to serve himself.

The third difference: The Duchess is very ill, and seems to have a big problem with his health. Because he will start in any occasion, suddenly without warning... Faint!

Since he came back, this kind of thing has happened three times. The first time was in a military meeting. As a result, a group of generals were almost scared to death. They called the medical officer to rescue them, but they couldn't find out anything wrong. Half an hour later, he suddenly woke up.

Adults wake up, the first sentence is: "please, can you stop fighting in my mind!"

The fourth difference: adults seem to be intermittent... Crazy!

This is the most terrible thing!

Before, no one knew how strong duvet's strength was. As we all know, the young Duke's strength is very high. How high is it? Holy steps?

No one can tell.

However, this time, we finally have a more intuitive understanding:

The day after Dewey came back, he personally went to inspect the restoration of a section of the northern wall. After a month's hard work by the craftsmen, the 50 meter long wall has been completely restored, and the firmness of the wall has also been tested, reaching the military standards of the Empire.

As a result

That day, accompanied by dozens of generals, there were thousands of soldiers and thousands of laborers around. It's reasonable that the Duchess should give a few pep talk

As a result, Dewey suddenly went crazy with his head in his arms! He seems to be very painful, suddenly, inexplicably roared a voice: "how do you fight again!!"

The people in this sentence were at a loss, but they looked at the adults as if they were holding their heads in pain, and they were about to come up to rescue them.

However, it took two steps. No one's going to catch up with Dewey!

Just because, in the pain of Du Wei, inadvertently slapped on the side of the section just built on the wall!

As a result... In full view of the public, the 50 meter long wall built in full accordance with the first-class standard of the Imperial military law was slapped by him and suddenly collapsed!

Everyone saw it clearly, under the hand of the Duke. As if a ray of light forced into the wall, and then, the 50 meter long wall, in a roar, turned into gravel!!

It's a real smash! Later, when people were cleaning up the ruins, they searched for a long time and found the biggest stone on the ground, which was just the size of their fists. Hell, the wall was built with square boulders one by one!!

So. Once the Duke goes mad, the first thing we do is to run away! Otherwise, if you are accidentally slapped by an adult, hum, think about what the wall looks like!!

Have to say. Du Wei's strange performance also caused a great degree of turbulence to the morale of the army.

If the commander-in-chief suffers from a strange disease and is unable to keep sober all the time, there will be a big problem in the command of the army.

Fortunately. During this period of time, the fighting situation became stable, and the enemy on the North Bank of the river had no intention to attack on a large scale.

When Du Wei was sober, he immediately gave an order. Generally, military affairs were decided by several division heads. Unless it was a major military affair, he did not have to inform himself.

however. Everyone is wondering:

Our Duke of tulips, what's the matter with him?!

When the messenger of the imperial capital's military headquarters sent the orders of the general headquarters, the Ministry of military headquarters did not dare to make a decision easily, so it had to report to Du Wei.

Fortunately, Dewey seemed to be sober. He personally received the messenger of the imperial capital and read the military orders of the imperial capital.

The military order is simple: order all the troops in the theater. From the moment of command. All garrison on the spot, no unauthorized transfer! Don't leave your zone! If there is a transfer to leave your own defense zone. Over 1000 people must be reported to the military headquarters!

Otherwise, it will be punished as treason!

At the sight of the order, Dewey was stunned. The generals around him seemed to see a trace of

blue?!

Yes, it's really sad!

That night, Du Wei stood alone in the yard, facing the south, holding a bottle of wine in his hand, silent, so a small mouthful, a small mouthful, enough to drink all night!

Until it was almost dawn, Dewey suddenly dropped the bottle on the ground, and then he sighed.

"Go all the way!"

It was on that day that Dewey was in the north, drinking all night, sighing at dawn.

In the imperial capital

On the city wall, the golden flag of thorns was slowly lowered. Then, on the dihuangcheng, the capital, and the gates of the city wall, the special black flag of thorns was raised!

And it's early in the morning.

Countless elite knights, dressed in heavy black costumes and carrying urgent official documents in black leather covers, came out from the gates of the imperial capital and galloped out to all parts of the mainland. Their task was to convey the sad news to all sides of the mainland.

Late autumn, 966.

Winter is coming.

A sad letter from the imperial capital spread all over the mainland.

Augustine, the actual ruler of the Empire and Regent of the Empire, died in the imperial city at the age of 32!

The young Regent had been in power for more than five years from the coup of 961 to his death.

Although he had never been crowned emperor in his life, even later generations argued endlessly about the reason why he voluntarily gave up the throne and was willing to become Regent. However, it is undeniable that the Regent, who has been in power for five years, is the real king of the mainland during his reign. After his death, the funeral was conducted according to the emperor's standard.

On the revision of the general history of the mainland many years later, the biography of the only Regent in the history of the empire is also included in the biography of the emperor. He does not wait to be crowned, but in people's hearts, he is an emperor!
