Episode 9 Legends in the Ancient Scrolls Section 3 Dragon Knight 3
The next day, Kerui rode Yin Dian back to the imperial capital quickly.
There is no concierge team that warmly greeted us here in the past, nor are there any cheerful people. Outside the imperial capital, the city guards are disposing of the bodies of the deceased, only separating soldiers from civilians. There are no enemies here, and the dead are all their former comrades and compatriots.
.
The people in the city were cleaning the streets spontaneously. Looking at the silver light group appearing in the sky, both the people and the soldiers stopped what they were doing and bowed in the direction of the palace before starting to get busy again.
The Imperial Guards saw Corey entering the palace and stood silently on both sides of the passage. Gioranu came out and bowed deeply, making an invitation gesture with a serious look on his face.
"General Gioranu, has the unrest in the country subsided?" Corey and Gioranu walked side by side.
Gioranu sighed softly: "It has subsided. At least one legion has been lost, and there are countless injured soldiers. There are no accurate statistics yet. The nobles who participated in the rebellion have been guarded in their respective homes by soldiers from all over the country. Now
The Six Nations Allied Forces that His Majesty is concerned about."
Corey nodded slightly and couldn't help but quicken his pace.
Arriving at the Royal Back Study, Corey stopped and was about to wait for the official's announcement. However, the aide knelt down and said, "Your Majesty has an order. No matter when Grand Duke Corey comes, he can see Your Majesty directly without notification."
"Corey." Warner stood up involuntarily when he saw Corey coming in.
"Your Majesty..." Corey saw that the kingdom's dignitaries and ministers were all there, and immediately prepared to salute first, but Warner waved his hand to stop him: "Quick, sit over here."
An attendant brought a chair and placed it under Warner's throne.
"Grand Duke Cory, how is the war in the north?" the Prime Minister asked eagerly.
"General Muharlin has retreated to the newly built fortress on the original border of our kingdom. The enemy has retreated. However, only General Kamo is in charge of the rear, and only three hundred people in the entire legion came back alive." Corey said about the Kamo Legion.
, couldn't help but look sad.
When all the ministers heard the news, they bowed their heads and remained silent.
At this time, the Minister of the Interior stood up and said: "Your Majesty, please give a generous reward to the Camo family and the officers who died in the battle, especially the three hundred warriors who are still alive. This is to comfort the warriors who died for the kingdom and to show that your Majesty
Your loving heart."
"Yes." Warner immediately agreed to the Home Secretary's proposal.
"Your Majesty, gentlemen. Now we need to discuss what to do next. In the name of the Dragon Knight of the Grand Duke of Corey, the six countries in the mainland will not dare to be enemies with our country anymore. However, our national strength is extremely damaged at this time. We need to
To rest and recuperate, I propose to hold talks with the six countries." The Foreign Secretary put forward his own ideas.
Warner's teacher knocked on the table: "Your Majesty, I believe that the six countries are more afraid of our country using the power of the Dragon Knight to attack, so they will definitely form a long-term alliance and place heavy troops of the six countries at our borders to defend against our attack.
The veteran minister of Hetan also agrees, but how to discuss it must be carefully considered."
When Warner heard what the two ministers said, he thought they were very reasonable and looked at the Prime Minister.
The Prime Minister also understood that it was time for him to speak, so he stood up and bowed slightly to Warner, then said: "The old minister thought that peace talks must be held, so let the six countries and our country stand in a stalemate on the border first, and then
If we continue to divide slowly, the great cause of our Yasi Kingdom to unify the continent will be completed in your dynasty."
"Wait a minute, I can't let the Dragon King participate in our war to annex the six countries. The dragons are a nobler race than us. I am very grateful to help us resist foreign enemies this time." Corey said suddenly.
When Corey said this, not only Warner but also all the ministers were stunned.
The Prime Minister suddenly shouted: "The Guards, level one alert." After footsteps sounded outside the window, the Prime Minister suddenly laughed: "What Grand Duke Corey said is not entirely correct, but the Six Nations will not think that we do not need to use the Dragon Clan.
Attacking them for helpers, so they are also very scared."
Corey thought to himself, that's right. It was an agreement between the Dragon King and him not to participate in human wars, but only they knew about it. Now that all the ministers from the Warner faction knew about it, it was impossible for the enemy to know about it at will.
"Then, how long will this stalemate last?" Corey asked again.
"Maybe one or two years, maybe ten years or even longer," the Prime Minister said with a wry smile.
Seeing that Kerui's expression was not good, the Minister of the Interior hurriedly explained: "This stalemate is beneficial to our country. We, the Yasi Kingdom, can take this time to recuperate and develop our national strength. But they have been worried all day long, and in addition
We sent people to sow discord among the six countries, and the one who will benefit in the end will be our Kingdom of Yasi."
Corey had no interest in such political matters and sat there with his head bowed and silent.
The ministers discussed it for a long time, but when they saw that Corey didn't say a word, they all looked at Corey.
Warner asked: "Corey, what do you have to say."
"Me, me!" Corey came back to his senses and smiled: "This is going to be a stalemate for a long time. I have nothing to do. I plan to go out for adventure. Maybe I can find some good things to come back."
"Ah!" Warner was speechless with his mouth half open at that time. Corey immediately explained: "I can't say yet, but I can find good things every time I explore. Maybe I will gain more this time."
Big."
What Corey said makes sense. Not only Warner, but all the ministers also knew that it was definitely not an accident that Corey received help from a large group of magical beasts. Look at Corey's side, there are holy beasts and sub-dragon beasts, and this time there are actually
The legendary mythical beast-level dragon clan, no wonder Corey likes to explore.
"Then where are you planning to go this time?" Warner couldn't help but ask.
"I'm getting ready to go to sea and am already building a big ship." Corey said a little excitedly.
The Foreign Secretary said with some confusion: "There is nothing outside the sea, and there are countless dangers. Although our country is the only kingdom on the mainland that can see the sea, it has been recorded since ancient times that no one has left the seaside for more than 20 kilometers. It is extremely dangerous outside.
ah."
"Records from ancient times, hehe, I'm afraid they only have records of a few thousand years. Twenty thousand years ago, there was a legendary..." When Corey said this, he hurriedly covered his mouth and shook his head: "Can't say, can't say.
"
Corey's weird expression surprised everyone present. Even Warner, who knew Corey very well, didn't understand why Corey suddenly acted like this.
But Warner understands that since Corey said he couldn't say anything, especially in front of his friend, blood brother, and emperor, he must have made an agreement with someone else, maybe with the Dragon Clan, maybe with other god-level beings.
Agreement.
Thinking of this, Warner said: "Then what do you need to go to sea?"
Corey lowered his head and thought for a while: "I don't need anything anymore. My province has already made a lot of preparations. Now I just need to wait for the big ship to be built. By the way, I am trying every means to collect information from the mainland.
The Elder Scrolls."
Warner nodded: "Minister Prime Minister, in my name, collect the Elder Scrolls at all costs. And then keep Corey's going to sea strictly confidential."
Since the ministers saw the Dragon Clan with their own eyes, Kerui has become a very mysterious figure in their hearts. It is normal for Kerui to have any strange requests.
"However, Corey, you can only leave after cooperating with the six countries. I need you to appear at the peace talks." Warner saw the excited Corey and couldn't help but dampen Corey's excitement.
Corey chuckled and agreed.
At this time, in the Tucani military camp, Marshal of the Tucani Army was drinking heavily. In front of him sat Marshal of the Imperial Army of the Allied Forces, Sibei Hanmo, and Marshal of the Imperial Army of Nora Kahun.
