According to reports, it has been a while since Ella came back. During this period, the lords of the Pirate Kingdom have returned with their troops one after another. Since Ella left the Duchy of Angria in the middle of the meeting, many matters have not yet been negotiated, so she has to continue to stay in Shi
Tad for a while.
Amy was seriously injured in Bremen and had been lying in bed for several days. Ella wanted her to rest well, so Amy was transferred to the "Flying Zealander" yesterday. Not long after,
The "Flying Zealander" is about to set sail, carrying Amy back to Stade first. Before it returns, there are only a thousand soldiers left by Ella's side.
Ella does not feel that this deployment will bring danger to herself. First, Stadler has built a walled city, which is enough for defense; second, if there are many enemies, she can evacuate by boat at any time; third, now
No one dares to attack Stade.
Amy heard Ella's voice and sat up from the bed with all her strength. Although she wanted to stand up and prepare herself to welcome Ella, her body couldn't bear it. So she could only lean on the bed and wait for Ella to come in.
.
"Your Majesty's grilled fish..." Amy whispered. She couldn't imagine what it would be like. You know, Ella had never entered the kitchen.
Ella's footsteps had already arrived outside the door. But after waiting and waiting, Ella didn't come in.
Just when Amy was confused, Ella's scream suddenly came from outside the cabin. Amy was startled and hurriedly shouted: "Your Majesty! What's wrong?"
"Grilled fish...Grilled fish ran away and is now jumping around on the ground!"
???
Amy's face began to twitch.
"Don't worry, Amy, I'll catch it soon!"
"This is no longer a question of whether it can be caught, Your Majesty! Didn't you say it was grilled fish? Why did it run away? Why was it still jumping on the ground? No, the problem is not there! Your Majesty, at least remove the belly of the fish before grilling it.
Cut it open and clean its internal organs!!!"
There were sounds of fierce fighting outside the cabin.
"You bastard, you dare to slap me in the face with your tail! I am the King of Sweden! I am also Baselisa of the Seven Hills Empire! Oh, slap me again! Someone! Help! Come and save me!!!"
After a period of confusion, Ella carefully dragged a plate in and said: "Amy... the grilled fish was chopped into pieces by the pirates, but you can still eat it as sashimi..."
“Why does grilled fish turn into sashimi after being cut into pieces?”
After complaining loudly to Ella, Amy took a deep breath and lay back on the bed quietly.
"Besides, how could Your Majesty do such a thing for a maid?"
"No longer a maid!" Ella put the plate by Amy's window, then put her hand on the edge of Amy's bed and said seriously, "Everyone has heard that you are my sister, Amy Cole.
Nerius Scipio!"
"Amy Cornelius Scipio...does your Majesty really know what this means?"
"It means Amy, you are a noble! Because you are my sister, although you are far behind, you are indeed in the line of succession to the throne! In this way, if something happens to me again, I need Amy to help take care of things.
If you do, there won’t be so many people against you!”
"I hope your majesty can stay in the palace and stop running out to do math problems..."
"Gu..."
Ella shrank her head. When she reported to Amy that she had done a few math problems and had not learned magic, Amy was so angry that she scolded her.
"If Your Majesty wants to give you a name, I can't refuse... But Your Majesty, since you want me to help you take care of things, can I ask for your Majesty's strategic guidelines? Otherwise, I don't know what to do."
"...Strategic policy, where to start?"
"Let's talk about the Pirate Kingdom first. Your Majesty is obviously Baselisa of the Seven Hills Empire, but now you have become the King of Sweden in the Pirate Kingdom. What do you think of such a country?"
Ella thought for a while and replied: "The people of the Pirate Kingdom are very brave. This reminds me of the Seven Hills Republic during the expansion period."
"Then, as long as Your Majesty uses the soldiers and horses of the Pirate Kingdom to conquer the north and south, maybe he can recreate the great cause of the founding of the Seven Hills Empire?"
"Unfortunately, based on the current situation, this is impossible." Ella shook her head and said, "The Seven Hills Republic a thousand years ago had a technological level that was unparalleled in the world at the time. Thousands of years have passed, and today's pirate kingdom has its own technological level.
The technology is not even as good as the Republic of Seven Hills a thousand years ago. The Republic of Seven Hills a thousand years ago was the light of civilization, but the Pirate Kingdom a thousand years later is just a barbaric country. This is completely incomparable."
"Is that why Your Majesty wants to open a school in Gotland?"
Ella nodded: "Although they complain a lot in school, I believe they will eventually know the value of this school. Amy, although I may never become Augusta, I will definitely be praised in the Pirate Kingdom
history. This is also my repayment to them - when I was at my lowest, they respected me as their king."
"Please don't say such things, Your Majesty, I believe you can become Augusta!"
After comforting Ella, Amy continued to ask: "Your Majesty, what do you think of Alfred and Britain?"
"Britain? When it was invaded by barbarians, the Empire of the Seven Hills once sent a document to Britain saying, 'You can take care of yourself.' Alfred also asked me to recognize the legitimacy of his throne. This is my ally.
I have no other ideas."
"What about Alemanni? Your Majesty told me that Alemanni was founded after the mercenaries of the Seven Hills Empire rebelled. Then they are completely a group of rebels, but why did your Majesty include all the occupied cities in this negotiation?
Did you give it back to them?”
"Because I have bigger enemies than the Alemannic Federation. Being enemies with many opponents at the same time seems very brave, but this is actually a big diplomatic failure - the Alemannic Federation has
If there is an opportunity to become our ally, I want to seize the opportunity."
"Allies? But the Alemannic Federation has surrendered to the Tianfang Empire, and they have allowed missionaries from the Tianfang Empire to preach..."
"The Alemanni Federation's land area is more than half of the Tianfang Empire. Do you think they will really feel comfortable being a vassal of the Tianfang Empire? Amy, this is an opportunity, because Alemanni has joined the Tianfang Empire, and it will become more
They may become our allies. I signed a trade agreement this time and asked soldiers from the Pirate Kingdom to protect their merchant ships, just to increase the relationship between the two countries and prepare for that possible future."
"It turns out that His Majesty has thought so much about it."
Amy smiled reassuringly.
"I was worried when His Majesty ran out to do math problems before. But it seems that Your Majesty is already a qualified king."
While talking, Amy suddenly remembered something, took out the cross that Gregory gave her, and showed it in front of Ella.
"Last question... What does Your Majesty think of the Tianfang Empire?"
