Chapter 206

"I didn't write this letter, and my housekeeper has never been to Buryat!"

Sonorous and powerful voices echoed in the open hall. Archduke Williams, Queen Catherine and Marquis golon gathered in the conference room of the royal palace to discuss the changes in the Buryat leadership.

Although the buryates are the Lords of Gambis, they are still just an out of class family in the eyes of the three. The great Knight Austin died in the decisive battle, and it is not worth discussing countermeasures between Williams and Catherine. The reason why the high level of the Gambis royal family is so solemn is that it involves Sylvia and the York family.

For any royal family, the Golden Knight in the kingdom is not only a precious wealth but also a big trouble, among which the flame Golden Knight is the most troublesome.

Flame gold knights are called divine knights. They have unparalleled combat power, but they live a short life, have no partners and are infertile. In their later years, other Golden Knights were busy breeding and educating their children, while the lonely divine Knights became extremely aggressive and dangerous due to the infection of the element of fire. They were more keen to challenge the Knights of the same level and often trampled on the Golden Knights of other families for a small matter. Fortunately, there are very few golden flame knights. There are only less than 10 in human history of nearly 8000 years, but each golden flame knight has left a strong mark in history, and some even caused the collapse of the Old Kingdom and the rise of new forces.

It is precisely because of these characteristics that the families with flame gold knights are very aggressive. Taking advantage of their backers, they have no fear to expand their family power, annex small families, occupy more territory and build higher castles, which makes other large families look at it and have nothing to do. At this time, if the royal family cannot lead the divine Knight family to expand outward, they will cause unrest within the kingdom.

Gambis faces the same problem. Just yesterday, Sylvia's messenger brought a letter to the Marquis of goron. It was this letter that prompted Judy's mother and son to flee to the human horse hills, and finally led to the death of the great Knight Austin in Randall's land. In the decisive battle, killing the great Knight of the kingdom was a serious event challenging the royal authority, but now everyone's attention is focused on the intention of the York family.

William's fierce appearance made Catherine gloat. Williams intervened in the affairs of Buryat, apparently to stabilize the situation in the south of the Kingdom and enhance the royal family's control over the southern Lords. In fact, it was to prevent the influence of the Wellington family from penetrating into the south of the Kingdom, and the Wellington family was precisely the main supporter of Catherine. Now, Williams has been beaten in the face by the York family. Everyone knows that the York family and Williams are not united. Of course, Catherine is secretly happy about it.

Williams saw a glimmer of disdain on Catherine's bright face, and his heart was speechless. Since the death of King Ryan, Williams and Catherine are in the same boat. He has not been in the palace to see the queen for a long time, but today he cannot clarify the matter. The most important thing is to explain to the Marquis of goron, because goron once stopped the plan of the overnight owl to assassinate Viscount Randall. Now this letter makes him suspect again.

"Your Highness Williams, is this really not your letter?" Goron stared at Williams, as if to see something in his face.

"Really not!" Williams calmly faced the aggressive eyes of the Golden Knight, firmly shook his head and asked, "did Mr. goron, the messenger of the York family say anything?"

"Sylvia said nothing, but sent the letter." Goron said in a deep voice.

Catherine's eyes twinkled and asked coldly, "gorongqing, Williams, what are you hiding from me?"

Goron sighed, recounted the cause of the incident in detail, and said, "I believe your highness did not secretly carry out the assassination plan. This event should be planned by the York family in order to expand their influence. It is not difficult for the York family whether it is to imitate stationery or send someone to pretend to be your Highness's housekeeper."

"In terms of the current situation, no matter who wrote this letter, Archduke must admit it, and I will acquiesce in the content about me in the letter." Catherine paused and said, "if the owl is complete, we can detect the York family's plan in advance, so we won't be so passive. I ask to take back the command of the owl. What do you think, gorongqing?"

Goron was unhappy and helpless. Williams is courageous, decisive, good at winning people's hearts, but also adventurous. Catherine is relatively conservative, but her mind is delicate, her work is watertight, but her selfishness is heavier. If the two people work together to help that person, even if that person is a teaser, they can take care of Gambis in good order. In addition, Sylvia's sharp double-edged sword may make the Kingdom further. Unfortunately, the fierce struggle between the two men for power and profit led to difficulties for Gambis. Goron himself was not good at dealing with internal affairs and did his best to stabilize the overall situation.

Goron's biggest worry is that the man and horse hills can't meet the appetite of the York family. Once they reach out to other lords and the royal family can't effectively contain them, there will be an avalanche within the kingdom. But if they make enemies with the York family, Emperor dodo or Rand will certainly not miss the opportunity to fan the flames. Then Gambis will be really dangerous.

Although Catherine is a little careful, she is not a person who doesn't know the general. She still wants to take back the night owl at the critical moment. Most of them have more accurate news.

Thinking of this, goron moved in his heart and asked, "Your Majesty Catherine, is there any news from the Duke of Wellington?"

Seeing that the Marquis of goron did not talk about the control of the owl, Catherine had to sigh in her heart and said: "The envoy of the York family, the representative of the Wellington family and the representative of the SoLIM family have reached a preliminary consensus in yeliucheng. The York family has no intention to intervene in the affairs of the Buryat family, and proposes that the three parties jointly maintain the independence of the Buryat collar, fairly trade ordinary materials through yeliucheng, and pay taxes to the Buryat family."

Williams looked at goron in amazement and asked incredulously, "is it so simple? They didn't ask for marriage, hunting party or Legion competition?"

Marriage and hunting events are important ways to expand the influence of the family, and the Legion competition is the talent recruitment fair of the Lord. When several families jointly hold the Legion competition, those unsuccessful trainee knights or scholars and nobles will show their talents through competition. They can not only get rich prizes, but also have the opportunity to join the big family and seek a job for themselves The York family has a title and territory, which is very attractive to Knights, but it is a naked talent plunder for small families.

Goron thought that the York family would firmly control the Buryat leader and hold regular army competitions in yeliucheng to attract talents from other families to join the human horse hills, so as to strengthen their own strength. He didn't expect that the York family took all the trouble to lure and kill a great knight, just asking for fair trade or ordinary goods!

However, when Marquis goron saw Catherine shaking her head gently, he was relieved, while Williams said to himself inexplicably: "Sylvia, what do you mean? What goods can be traded in the human horse hill? Refined iron? No, the York family is poor, and the Duke of York has not sold a piece of refined iron ore! Purple cane wine? It has all been handed over to Sophia's chamber of Commerce! Snow sugar and coffee? Although the profit is large, the quantity is too small, and Viscount teness has won half of the share, the York family How much more goods can the family have? "

"Don't guess, it's crude sugar and green bricks!" Said Catherine coldly.

"Rough sugar? Green brick?"

Catherine also ignored Williams and turned to goron and said, "crude sugar is also made of purple sugarcane for civilian consumption. The price is slightly more expensive than salt and the quantity is more than snow sugar. In addition, the York family invented a huge brick kiln, which can produce green bricks in large quantities. They want to sell these two kinds of goods."

"I see." Marquis goron nodded and said, "the York family, like us, is very tight financially, and the church is fighting against the Centaur clan, and the materials to support the Centaur hills are quite limited. They have to find another way to expand their financial resources. It seems that Sylvia's agreement with us is still valid, and she does not intend to be hostile to the kingdom."

"Your Majesty Catherine, your highness Williams, no matter what twists and turns there are, Austin's attempt to kill the family heirs is a fact, as is the invasion of Randall's collar. I suggest that this matter be stopped." Goron stood up and advised the two royal family members.

Just as Catherine was about to nod, a clear voice came.

"Wait!"

The beautiful princess Roland took Prince Edward and said with a smile, "the little baby has been eavesdropping for a long time. I have to bring him here."

Prince Edward tried to break away from Roland's jade hand and said angrily, "I'm not a baby. I'm ten years old."

"OK! Baby is ten years old. Just say what you want to say. When you're finished, go fishing with me."

Roland turned his pink lips and pressed Edward on the main seat. Williams looked and said nothing after all. Catherine patted Prince Edward on the back of his hand with great satisfaction and said softly, "Edward, do you have any suggestions?"

Edward looked to his sister for help, while Roland looked up at the huge painting on the ceiling as if he had never seen it before. Edward bit and stammered, "I... I think the authority of the royal family can not be challenged. I should... Summon Viscount Randall and order him to explain to the Senate."

The atmosphere on the scene suddenly became subtle. Marquis goron, the queen and the Archduke avoided talking about Viscount Randall from beginning to end, because they all knew what the popular shooter with empty elements meant to Sylvia in three years. Although Sylvia's hope was slim, they all hoped in their hearts that Viscount Randall would always be with Sylvia Sylvia also submitted two marriage letters to the Senate and the church, which has shown her attitude towards Viscount Randall. At this time, to be accountable to Viscount Randall is to move Sylvia's scales, which is not in line with the interests of the royal family.

Catherine smiled bitterly and said, "honey, things are very complicated here. You can't understand it now..."

"No! I know." Edward stubbornly turned his head away from Catherine's hand.

"Your Highness Edward, the descendants of the August family have the right to speak at any time. Please go on." Marquis goron said solemnly to Edward.

Prince Edward looked at goron gratefully and said: "I can't understand your concerns, but Secretary Basten taught me that if I can't understand something, I need to look at a simple place to see who benefits and who suffers? The York family needs us to support them, and we also need the York family to guard the hills. We suspect each other and suffer from each other. What really benefits is the external forces. I heard that the York family and King dodo When there was a conflict with the Duke of Eriksson, Eriksson was deprived of his title by King dodo and lost a large sum of money to the York family, which was just to please! Then Austin violated Randall's collar. Isn't it too coincidental? "

Catherine's eyes brightened and encouraged softly, "honey, what you said earlier is very good, but the speculation behind is meaningless. In some cases, the truth of the facts is not important, but how to deal with it. I want to hear your reasons for blaming Viscount Randall."

"Well, we need to maintain the majesty of the royal family. The York family needs the support of the kingdom. We must show each other's attitude so that external forces can't take advantage of it."

"Well said!" Williams applauded, smiled and asked, "so... How to solve the problem of trust?"

Edward shouted, "I'll visit blackcastle until Viscount Randall returns to the man horse hills." Then he summoned up his courage and said to Williams, "uncle, I want to ask Viscount Sauron to accompany me."

"No!" cried Katherine out in a gaffe

Williams was thrilled. Edward and Sauron walked together, no less than putting his neck under his knife. Marquis goron, with strange eyes, seemed to know the young prince for the first time. He slowly asked, "Your Highness Edward, why did you do this?"

"Um... Um..." Edward's little face turned red and said quickly, "my sister said she wanted to see what's special about the popular shooter. She also said that Victor was a small flower bottle. She was curious... Oh... Oh!"

The three men looked at Roland together. Roland released his hand covering Edward's mouth and said fiercely, "boy, you're finished! Look, I won't break your little ass!"

"Don't run!"

Little Edward ran away, and Roland chased after him with open teeth and claws. In a moment, the sister and brother disappeared. Golon looked at his back gradually running away, and his heart gave birth to a lot of hope and pride.

——————————————————

In an open space deep in the dark forest, more than 30 strong alchemy militia kept digging a huge pit. The depth of the pit and the height of soil accumulation were far higher than the height of the alchemy militia. Such pits were everywhere on the ground.

More than a dozen huge war mastiffs are divided into six piles. They are struggling to tear the bodies of bear goblins, but there are no ordinary goblins nearby. Only those simple weapons scattered on the ground prove that there has been a battle here, and at least hundreds of goblins have been killed.

"Ding!"

The iron hoe knocked on the hard object with a crisp sound. The alchemist immediately bent down and pulled away the black earth with his hands. The unearthed yellow curved stones appeared below. Other alchemists also came over and quickly dug around the stones. As the surrounding black mud was shaved away, the Yellow Stones gradually showed their true appearance. This is a standard spherical rock half a person high, and the surface is very smooth It is smooth without any patterns. Its color is earthy yellow, which is obviously different from the surrounding black mud.

A strong Funiu militia pushed hard, but the stone ball didn't move. He picked up a fine iron hammer and hit it hard.

"Bang!"

With a loud noise, the Funiu militia stepped back a few steps. The hammer head made of refined iron had been deformed, and his tiger mouth was also shaken open. The bright red blood dropped on the ground along the handle of the hammer, and there was not even a small crack on the surface of the stone ball.

The alchemical militia blew a long whistle, and several alchemical crows flew down from the tree.

"Dark forest, suspicious target found." The alchemical militia spoke to the alchemical crow three times.

The alchemical crow flashed his blood red eyes and whispered, "dark forest, find a suspicious target."

"A suspicious target was found in the dark forest."

Three gold crows flapped their wings and flew through the dense canopy to the direction of the alchemy tower.
