"Yes, Lord Sword Master, someone is really causing trouble." The minister here said softly.
"Uh... there are actually people who really dare to cause trouble at this time. I was afraid that no one would dare to take action, so I made special arrangements. I didn't expect that there are many brave people." Linton said, "Where are the people, arrest them all.
Already?"
"Fifteen died and twenty-two were captured," the minister replied. "There are still a few who escaped and are being hunted."
"So many people? Don't you mean just ten people?" Linton asked.
"Sir Sword Master, we discovered it early. Several people were restrained by us before they had time to take action. Several others also realized that they were short of talents and took action," the minister said.
"That's it, I understand." Linton nodded to express his understanding.
"Sir, do you need to be tortured?" the minister asked.
"Yes, you have to put on a show." Linton said, "Don't we also use those confessions we prepared before? It doesn't matter what they recruit, but the appearance still needs to be done."
"Okay, sir." The minister understood what he meant, nodded and backed away.
"Uh... did you direct and act in the co-writing?" Tony next to him heard clearly, and couldn't help but say after Linton finished talking.
"Hey, listen clearly, I didn't direct or act myself. Before I had a chance to act, someone came to my door to act as a friend," Linton said.
"It's too exaggerated to do something like this at your own son's christening ceremony," Tony said.
"I told you that I came too early. I had no intention of ruining the ceremony. After all, Yalan also values it very much. The previous arrangement was to ambush on the road..." Linton said.
"No, what are you doing all this for?" Tony asked.
"Don't you want to experience the dark politics of the Middle Ages? That's it." Linton said, "There are people who dare not come to my son's full moon banquet. Are they not giving me face? I don't want to mess with them.
If you do it alone, it will bring disgrace to the empire."
"Are you talking about the people from the Elf Kingdom?" Tony asked.
"Yes, there seem to be others who didn't come, but who told me that this Elf Kingdom was the first one to know about it? How can I not mess with them?" Linton said, spreading his hands.
"Is this... possible?" Tony held his forehead, "Actually, it's not necessarily the person they sent. It's not necessarily because they didn't come that they wanted to be your enemy."
"It doesn't matter, it happened. It's up to us to decide what happens next. Whoever we found out did it is who did it. The facts don't matter. After all, is there a United Nations or a Hague court here?" Linton said, spreading his hands.
, "The elves don't want to show dignity, so we help them show respect. They don't want to celebrate as guests, so I let them come as prisoners."
"According to you Chinese people, it's just killing the chicken to scare the monkeys, right?" Tony nodded slightly, "But it's no problem. Doesn't this mean that the elves don't border on you, and their national strength doesn't seem to be weak, right?
According to the previous minister’s introduction, the elves are not easy to mess with.”
"If we don't have a border, we can find a way to do so. It's not a big deal." Linton said, "Someone is making trouble at my son's baptism ceremony. Shouldn't I be furious? At this time, it's killing people and killing Buddhas.
Whoever dares to protect the elves can just attack him first. As for the national strength of the elves...it's relative that they are not easy to offend, and we are even less easy to offend."
"I didn't offend you. Isn't this something you initiated?" Tony raised his forehead, "It's really the dark politics of the Middle Ages."
"Cut this section off and don't show it to little Morgan," Linton said.
"Nonsense, do you think I would let little Morgan see this?" Tony yelled, "No matter what, I wouldn't be so stupid."
"That's not necessarily true. There are always people here who want to write down my rebellious sayings in the family tree for my descendants to read." Linton said, "It makes me afraid to talk casually now."
"Is it really okay to directly provoke a war at the Full Moon Banquet?" Tony still asked with some doubts.
"All the people are martial, the environment is different." Linton said simply, "This is when our national strength is at its strongest. No one will think this is a bad thing. The word "military" is the result of seeing it. Besides, mercy cannot be dealt with.
The country is not a bad thing for education. If we can educate..."
"Speak humanly." Tony said, holding his forehead.
"Oh, I just feel unhappy with the elves." Linton said, "They were unlucky and hit the gun."
"..."
The development of things was almost as expected by Linton. In fact, the celebrations were not greatly affected. Whether it was the celebration banquets at the upper level, various ceremonies, or the carnival of the people below, they were all carried out in an orderly manner. But some minor things
The news also spread unconsciously.
Naturally, many people knew about the commotion during the noon ceremony. They also didn't know where the news came from, indicating that the people who caused trouble during the ceremony were sent by the elven Varahi Kingdom.
People are very interested in things like gossip, especially gossip that is said to come from the imperial city. They dare not discuss it in public casually, but it is too interesting to talk about it in private.
To be honest, few people in the main city of the Elf Varashi Kingdom have heard of it before. This is too far away from their daily lives. Who cares what the Elf Kingdom is thousands of miles away. This
This is not the information age, and there is not much news over there.
It is precisely because of the lack of understanding that the rhythm is particularly good. Unknowingly, many people also knew that the empire had invited the elves to this banquet, but they did not come to attend. It would be fine if they did not come.
They also sent dead soldiers to cause trouble, so I had to accept the invitation because I had some evil intentions.
When it comes to reasons, the surrounding countries don't want to see the human empire become stronger. This is the best reason. Of course, this is not an injustice to them. They really don't want to. It's just that most countries dare to think but dare not speak out, even if they come to the banquet.
Yes, how many of them came to celebrate sincerely? If they could choose, they would naturally wish something would happen to the heir to the empire.
While the people were discussing these gossips, more news came. Some of them said that Linton Sword Master was so angry that he smashed a room of antiques and was already considering taking revenge on the Elf Empire directly. Of course, the people could also
I understand, can Master Sword Master not be angry if he makes trouble at his son's baptism ceremony? If they are angry too, it seems like they are going to start a war?
Of course, this is not just Linton's personal vendetta. You came and disrupted the baptism ceremony of the heir of the empire. This is obviously an insult to their Holy Empire of Elan. Shouldn't you teach the other party a lesson in both public and private matters?
The people are also very angry. Isn't it a great thing that the empire has an heir? You see, they celebrate from the bottom of their hearts, but some people don't see their empire as good. The surrounding foreign countries should teach them a lesson.
With strong national power as the backing, the people's inner confidence is also very strong.
Obviously, people are afraid of provoking this kind of thing. The results of the investigation here have not been announced yet, and the people have already been screwed over. Some people even took people to the central square to make a confession on the spot, saying that we must teach them a lesson.
The Elf Kingdom took their king to the main city to apologize to the little prince.
"Assassins from the Kingdom of Varashi?" Yalan was naturally a little angry at this time. She valued her son's baptism ceremony very much. Fortunately, the person presiding over it was Pope Saint Reno, who was very stable and nothing major happened.
If any other mentally unstable bishop really made a fool of himself, he would be in trouble, and it would be a disgrace to her son and their empire.
But to be honest, Yalan still has some doubts about the results of the investigation from the people below. The Elf Varashi Kingdom sent people to cause trouble. This is... a bit strange. Others don't know, but she knows about the Elf clan. These elves
The tribe is very aloof and rarely interacts with outsiders most of the time. They hide in the cities they built deep in the jungle. They will not participate in most of the wars on the mainland. They are just a group anyway.
They are very helpful people, and they have no hatred against the empire. Unlike the orcs, who often started wars at every turn before, and the two sides have been feuding for hundreds of years. The elves' territory is not even bordering them, and the nearest place is separated by a river.
What about the country? Why are they provoking the empire?
As for why she didn't come to the banquet, Yalan can understand it, because it's just a nerd to find these people, but sending assassins... is somewhat contradictory to their personalities. So after seeing these confessions, Yalan's first thought
My reaction was one of surprise. I never thought it was them.
"Have you been tortured seriously?" Yalan looked at the minister and asked seriously.
"Yes...yes, Your Majesty." The minister here nodded, but he felt a little shaken.
Yalan frowned, always feeling that there was something wrong. She could tell that the minister in front of her was a little nervous, but it was normal for you. After all, he was responsible for security. If something happened now, he might move his head at any time.
Can you not be nervous? Of course, Yalan thinks he handled it pretty well, after all, nothing major happened. They can't blame them entirely for the assassin's incident. They handled it in a timely manner and already did a good job.
In fact, what Yalan didn't know was that the minister in front of him was indeed nervous, but what he was worried about was whether Linton would silence him directly. Didn't His Majesty the Emperor know about this? He thought Linton
I asked him to start the show after saying hello to Yalan. As a result... As soon as Yalan asked him, he knew that Yalan didn't know about it. Although everyone knows that Linton is the one who makes the decision in the palace, you are not the emperor in name.
ah.
Of course, even if it is exposed, there is no way anything will happen to Linton. It will definitely be him who is in trouble. Can he not be nervous?
"Understood, let's send an inquiry first...a question letter." Yalan thought for a while and said.
