Chapter 432 Meeting with Bonaparte
Located on the Royal Palace in the center of Steinard, densely packed Crusader soldiers watched outside.
The sky was overcast, a thunderstorm was brewing, and the air was filled with a suppressed smell of rust.
On the opposite side of the square, the troops of the revolutionary army have also assembled. After several days of deliberation, after the negotiation between the two sides failed, the revolutionary army began to connect several previous strongholds, completely surrounded the palace, and pressed inward. huge deterrent.
Unfortunately, this palace is not a lonely city. Although there is not much food stored in the palace, but through the gate of time and space below, you can continuously obtain supplies, food equipment, weapons and pills, and you don’t have to worry about logistical problems at all.
Although compared to ordinary cities or fortresses, the area of the palace is not too large, and the walls are not so strong. However, the existence of the gate of time and space allows it to continuously obtain supplies, and a simple siege has little effect. However, the Revolutionary Army and the Loen Federation behind them did not want to become a deadly enemy with the Holy Light Church, so they did not dare to attack easily. Can constantly threaten, use mouth cannon to siege the city.
The time was spent in the negotiation and wrangling between the two sides, and soon the revolutionary army had been besieging the palace for more than 20 days.
During this period, there was no large-scale conflict between the two sides, just confrontation and staring at each other from the air, but no one dared to provoke a real war.
Another major event is that after the revolutionary army determined the kingdom's political system, as the new king, Louis Bonaparte, after holding a simple enthronement ceremony, suddenly announced that a new king would be established in the Hiertenis Plain between Steinard and the Red Fortress. All - Nice City!
And after announcing this heavy news, they mobilized 20,000 troops from Steinard under the banner of building a new capital at a very fast speed, and plundered and transported a large number of materials. When the other families responded, Bonaparte had already arrived. Xindu, patted the buttocks and pulled away from the place of right and wrong in Steinard.
While many people were shocked, they scolded the Bonaparte family for being insidious, cunning, irresponsible, shrinking turtles…
In fact, there are many factors for the Bonaparte family to win this throne, and there are many people who want to take this opportunity to cheat the Bonaparte family, make them pay a huge price but jump into the quagmire that they can't extricate themselves from, and spend a lot of family for this throne in vain. resource.
However, no one would have imagined that this seemingly unremarkable Louis Bonaparte actually came out with a trick to escape, and jumped out of the huge whirlpool of Stinard. The joker of the Naparte family felt very uncomfortable, but there was nothing they could do. As the new king, Louis had the right to move the capital after he was crowned.
And through this incident, some discerning people have seen that the real intention of the Bonaparte family is not to pursue the completeness of the void world, but to be in the hands of the Bonaparte family. the rules. Originally, Louis jumped out to be king this time. Some people thought that Louis was young and vigorous, and he had to give up the tradition that the family has always upheld for the vanity of the king.
At that time, many people were still gloating about misfortune, but now it seems that it is not at all.
This time, the Bonaparte family not only won the title of king, but also plundered the wealth from Steinard in the name of the king, devoured the largest piece of cake at the fastest speed, and then wiped his mouth and left.
At the same time, the former Prime Minister of the Orient Province, the Marquis Capson, announced that the nobles and people of the entire Orient Province were willing to support His Majesty King Louis, and persuaded the two surrounding provinces, plus the Bonaparte family. With a large area of land directly under his control, Louis, the new king, has already mastered more than a quarter of the territory of the Void World in a blink of an eye.
At this time, the main force of the revolutionary army was pinned to Stinard, and other families could not expand the actual control of the chassis like Bonaparte.
This morning, the weather was cool and comfortable.
is located on the construction site of the new capital of Nice.
Although the new King Louis announced with great fanfare that he would build a new capital, in fact the Bonaparte family did not focus on building the city, but continued to expand their territory and plunder their wealth. There are hundreds of workers working on a few wooden stakes. Compared with the huge project of building the new capital, the workers are a joke.
At this moment, in front of a huge tent near the construction site.
Green stood on the rammed ground. The slightly damp ground was not muddy because it had been rammed. The soles of his shoes were hardly touched by the mud.
Standing next to Green, a handsome young man dressed casually looked at the construction site in the distance with a smile on his face: "Fate is amazing! I never thought that one day I would be able to become a king! It will be my capital in the future. and the palace..."
Green blinked the dead fish's eyes, glanced at King Louis who was pointing at the country, and said lightly: "Your Majesty, do you think I look like a fool or a blind man? How many people are going to build a new royal capital? The foundation is not finished when you enter the ground. "
King Louis didn't care about Green's tone, and laughed: "Your Excellency is laughing, it's just a pretense, who would really build a royal capital in such a safe place? Are you afraid that it will be inconvenient when the enemy attacks? "
Green was noncommittal. For this King Louis, he had an unfathomable feeling as soon as he met him. It's not how powerful this person is, but the fact that the other party is thoughtful and deep, and he is a very difficult character to deal with.
"By the way, is Silabel okay?" King Louis suddenly asked with a smile: "I haven't seen that girl for more than ten years. You probably don't know yet. If you think about it, she should call me uncle! "
Green was slightly surprised. He knew that Silabel's mother was from Loen, but he didn't know that she was actually a woman from the Bonaparte family.
Immediately realized in his heart, no wonder Silabel sent him to contact the Bonaparte family. It turned out that they still have this level of kinship.
Although it is said that among the royal family and nobles, the relationship of marriage does not mean much, and sometimes it is often that the family fights each other to death. However, sometimes it is very important to have this layer of relationship. This is a bond, or a stepping stone. If there is no such layer of relationship, it is equivalent to closing the channel of communication, but with this layer of relationship, there will be many more possible.
"Sir Silabel is very good, thank you for your concern." Green replied in a stylized way, and he no longer was arrogant, and asked directly: "I wonder if Your Majesty has any opinion on our proposal?"
Louis was lost in thought and did not answer for a long time.
Green waited patiently and did not appear anxious. In fact, he didn't care about Louis Bonaparte's answer, just to complete the task entrusted by Silabel.
Anyway, in more than two months, I will return to the main world no matter what.
After a while, Louis said: "You are so sure that the Bonaparte family is related to the Church of the Holy Light? You must know that I am now the king in the name of this void world, but the Church of the Holy Light occupies my palace and refuses to hand it over. I have to leave and build a new capital, and let the king's majesty be wiped out, shouldn't I hate the Church of the Holy Light?"
Green smiled and said: "Your Majesty Louis, it's not difficult to understand, you are only a king in name, and the rights here do not belong to you. Your role as a king is only to confer the canonization of those families who want to obtain the name of aristocrats. You will not fail to understand these things, nor will you be fascinated by temporary rights and false names. In addition, this time you can jump out of the quagmire of Stinard at a critical moment, which is enough to show that the Bonaparte family learned about a certain Some extremely important information. You should already know that it cannot stay here for long…”
Having said that, Green's dead fish eyes watched Louis Bonaparte's eyes, trying to see something strange in the other's eyes.
However, Louis' azure blue eyes were unwavering and did not reveal any abnormality at all.
"This is just your guess, without any basis." Louis responded lightly: "Besides such an important situation, perhaps Silabel came in person, and I may reveal a thing or two, but she sent you here..."
Green didn't care about the other party's doubts: "Originally, Silabel was going to come, but unfortunately His Royal Highness did not allow it, so he sent me over to contact, I hope we can cooperate, this will be beneficial to both parties, isn't it? "
"Oh? Did the Grand Duke Mora interfere in person? It seems that he has already decided that the Bonaparte family and the Church of the Holy Light are secretly cooperating." Louis finally frowned, obviously the Grand Duke Mora made him very afraid, even a little scared, and did not want to face it. to each other.
"Yes!" Green said: "The Archduke said, if you don't cooperate with the Church of the Holy Light, you will definitely not reject our proposal. It doesn't matter whether Silabel comes or not. If you really collude with the Church of the Holy Light, in your There must be some means of the Church of the Holy Light on you, maybe you didn’t realize it yourself, if Silabel comes over, no matter what you think, the Church of the Holy Light will use Silabel as a breakthrough to retaliate against the Archduke.”
Louis's eyes narrowed, and he couldn't help showing a dignified and suspicious mood, worried that the Church of the Holy Light was really playing tricks on him.
Although it was only fleeting, but based on Green's perception, he still found a clue.
"It seems that you have secretly joined forces with the Church of the Holy Light." Green expressed his judgment without hesitation.
"Humph!" Louis knew that he was showing his flaws, so he didn't deny it at all, and nodded: "If the greedy capitalists in the Loen Federation were too deceiving and forced me to be the king, Bonaparte would not be with the Church of the Holy Light. United, we are just protecting ourselves."
Green heard something different. The Bonaparte family didn't want this throne. Instead, other families in the Loen Federation forced them to take over this hot potato.
Seeing Green's doubts, Louis explained: "No one knows better than Bonaparte that the king is not so easy to be a king, as powerful as the Prady family, with thousands of years of history, and more than one natural disaster-level powerhouse, they can't be suppressed. Those greedy and crazy aristocrats and capitalists who live in the kingdom. The Bonaparte family currently does not even have a natural disaster. Only my father used an ancestral artifact, which was barely able to compete with the first-level natural disaster-level powerhouse. This strength alone is not enough. In order to suppress a void world, it is not a good sign to have a throne without strong strength."
