Archduke Feio recruited a lot of mercenaries in the mercenary guild. Although the task delegation was unclear, the mercenaries who received the task all understood that this was to let them return to their old profession of mercenaries! So, those who
A mercenary who doesn't like being a mercenary is basically not interested in the tasks he releases. However, there are still many mercenaries who are very interested in it. Some even plan to use this as a springboard to see if they can get an official position.
, after all, the income from the mercenary profession cannot be said to be very stable, and if you don't make a name for yourself, it will be a problem to provide for you in old age. But if you can work as an official and a part-time official, that will be different.
In this way, Archduke Feio recruited more than 2,000 mercenaries from the Mercenary Guild, including a few masters of rank 8. A self-styled mercenary of rank 7 like Lin Zheng would not stand out at all among them! And just
Yesterday, Archduke Feo gave the first task to the mercenaries he recruited, which was to locate Misha. If there was a chance to bring Misha to the Grand Duke's residence, it would be a great achievement!
Many mercenaries know Misha and know that she is Lin Zheng's heart. As the initiator of the mercenary conference and the founder of the mercenary guild, Lin Zheng
The mercenaries have a very high status in the minds of the mercenaries, so this is related to Misha's mission. The mercenaries' resistance is quite high and they do not intend to pay attention to the mission of Archduke Feo, and even have a more serious dispute.
A strong desire to break away! If the prerequisite for serving Archduke Feo is betraying Lin Zheng, then they would rather not do this task!
At this time, the messy personnel composition of Archduke Feo actually helped a lot! Because the composition of the personnel under Archduke Feo was so complicated that the people dispatched by all parties around him could not tell who were truly loyal to him.
Archduke Feo, in this case Archduke Feo can ask the knights who are truly loyal to him to cooperate with him and start acting!
The knights said that if the Duke wants to cause trouble, the more men under his command, the better! Although the number of more than two thousand mercenaries is not large, their personal bravery is quite high. If they are allowed to leave like this,
If they go, it will be a huge loss to the Duke! Therefore, they must find a way to retain these mercenaries.
After saying these words, both the knights who were truly loyal to the Grand Duke and other knights nodded their heads in agreement! Then someone said that the resistance of the mercenaries was due to the relationship between Misha and Lin Zheng.
If this is the case, then they can also use this relationship to strengthen the cohesion of the mercenaries!
The method is very simple. They only need to tell the mercenaries that the reason why they came to Westwind Fortress to take Misha away was not to harm her, but to welcome her back to Tire City, the capital of the Orma Empire, and let her inherit.
ceremony, and became Her Majesty the Queen of the Orma Empire. And when Tire City successfully seized the supreme emperor's privileges, what the mercenaries needed to consider was no longer whether they could keep Misha, but how.
Save their own lives!
Such a good strategy won the approval of Archduke Feo, so before Lin Zheng took Misha back to Archduke Feo's manor, Archduke Feo had already met with all the mercenary representatives, and under the witness of many spies, he reported to the mercenaries.
The soldiers swore an oath to protect Princess Micha. The serious and solemn demeanor and the cruel and serious content of the oath allowed Archduke Feo to win the trust of the mercenaries. However, when he fell in the eyes of the spies, he was heartbroken.
They called the Grand Duke a good actor! But what they definitely didn’t know was that the oaths made by the Grand Duke Feo were all real!
Not long after Duke Feo made the oath, Lin Zheng took Misha back to the manor. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, they saw Lin Zheng and Misha walking in like this. Many mercenaries were shocked.
My eyes widened. How could this girl be fooled so easily by others?!
"Mr. Siegfried, where is this place? Aren't we going to find Brother Lin and the others?"
Facing Misha's suspicious and somewhat vigilant expression, Lin Zheng couldn't help but smile a little. Our Misha's acting skills are much better than Xilu's exaggerated acting skills!
At this time, Archduke Feo laughed heartily in the astonished eyes of everyone, and then walked briskly towards Misha, saying as he walked: "Princess Misha, I really want to see you.
It’s not an easy thing!”
"Who are you?!" Misha looked at Archduke Feo, and stepped back in confusion and vigilance. In the end, she bumped into Lin Zheng. As Lin Zheng reached out and held her shoulders, Misha suddenly became confused.
She became nervous. Well, Misha is really nervous now. Whether she can fool her or not depends on her next performance!
Archduke Feona's face was filled with a cheerful smile. He bowed gracefully as he approached, and then said with a smile on his face: "It's a great honor to meet you, Princess Misha. I am Fiona."
·Feo."
"Fiona Feo——!" Misha shouted in surprise, "You are Archduke Feo!?"
"I'm glad that Your Highness the Princess knows about my existence." Archduke Feo said with a smile on his face, and then his expression gradually became serious, "Then let's get to the point, Your Highness the Princess, you are a little kid who ran away from home.
It's time to stop losing your temper. Now your father is seriously ill and may die at any time. The capital city of Tire is like a piece of scattered sand and is in chaos. At this moment, it is time for you to return to the city of Tire to restore the glory of the royal family.
!”
As soon as Archduke Feo finished speaking, Misha immediately struggled and shouted: "I won't go back! You all want to kill me, don't think I don't know. The people you were chasing after me just came here a few days ago.
Coming over here!"
"I can swear on my family's honor and life that it has absolutely nothing to do with my Feo family!" Archduke Feo raised his hands seriously and said, "If what I said at this time is even half a lie,
, I will be struck to death by thunder from the sky!"
Misha looked like he was shocked by Archduke Feo's oath, but he was indeed a little shocked, because Archduke Feo was quite impressive at the moment and didn't look like he was acting at all! When he came back to his senses, Misha
Then he stammered: "Then...then, who is...who is chasing me?"
"Unfortunately, I can't be sure about this!" Archduke Feo shook his head, "But these are no longer important to the current Orma Empire. Your Highness, the top priority is to return to Tire as soon as possible.
City, your Royal Highness, Princess, will take control of the royal power and restore the stability of the city of Tire. When you take over the power, you will have enough time to find out the guy behind it. Before that, my loyal knights and I,
We will do our best to protect your safety, Princess Princess!"
"No! No -!" Misha shook his head quickly, "I can't leave now! I have to wait for Brother Lin and the others to come back, and I have to explain this matter clearly to my aunt. I have to listen to whether I want to go back or not.
Let’s talk about Brother Lin and Auntie later.”
"I'm sorry to invite you, Your Royal Highness, to come here in this way." Archduke Feo first bowed and apologized, and then said seriously: "But Your Highness, the situation in Tire City no longer allows us to wait any longer.
We must set off immediately. You can leave a letter to let someone inform you about Brother Lin and your aunt, Her Highness Ning Lier, but we can no longer stay in West Wind Fortress!"
After saying that, Archduke Feo immediately waved his hand vigorously, "Everyone listen to the order, break camp immediately and return to Tire City!"
"Yes——! Your Majesty the Duke——!"
"I don't—!" Misha yelled unwillingly, "I don't want to go back, I want to see Brother Lin!"
"Your Highness, please don't be so willful. The people of the Orma Empire are waiting for you to go back! Yisi, take Your Highness to the car!"
"Yes! Master!" With that, Yisi walked up to Misha, bowed gracefully and said: "Your Highness, let's go!"
Lin Zheng's eyes were full of smiles, but there was a look of helplessness on his face, "There is no way, Your Highness Princess, I am a mercenary, and the order I received from my employer is to bring you here. If you don't
In this case, you won’t come with me!”
"Liar! Big liar!" Misha cursed angrily, and then shouted to Archduke Feo unwillingly: "You can go back if you want me to, but I want this liar to be by my side as my slave!"
"No problem!" Archduke Feo replied readily, and the mercenary played by Lin Zheng looked at him with a surprised expression, "Your Majesty, the content of the commission does not seem to include this, right?!
"
"If not, then add it!" Archduke Feo said expressionlessly, "As long as you can make Her Royal Highness calm down, I will give you a hundred times the commission!!"
"Don't give it!" Misha shouted angrily, "Don't give him a penny!"
Archduke Feo immediately responded: "Okay! Don't give it to him!"
Lin Zheng swallowed his saliva and looked as if he was shocked by Archduke Feo's promise. As for saying no, everyone knew that Archduke Feo was just trying to make Misha happy.
After a tangled struggle, Lin Zheng gritted his teeth, nodded and said: "Okay! I admit it!"
As soon as these words fell, the mercenaries on the side couldn't help but look at Lin Zheng with a little more contempt. It's so shameful for him to become a slave just for a little money! Of course, they are also a little bit jealous.
, after all, they also really want to have such a humiliating opportunity. It’s not like they don’t know Misha. She is usually a very well-behaved and kind-hearted girl. Just now she just said a few angry words. Even if she really becomes Misha’s slave,
Then there's no need to worry about being treated cruelly by Misha, this deal is such a good deal.
Watching Lin Zheng's performance, Misha almost couldn't help but laugh. Brother Lin's acting skills were really outstanding. Oops, it was so dangerous that he almost laughed! After suppressing his laughter, Misha became angry.
She kicked Lin Zheng, and then walked quickly towards Archduke Feo's mansion. If she stayed any longer, she was worried that her secret would be revealed soon!
