After the meeting, Andrew immediately sent a messenger and worked day and night to report the news to the royal capital. After learning the news, the king immediately organized an emergency meeting to discuss preliminary plans for emergency response measures to border emergencies.
According to the king's idea, this meeting will first determine the basic principles of the treatment plan, and then the next few meetings will formulate preliminary plans, and then subsequent meetings will formulate preliminary measures, and then subsequent meetings will make preliminary revisions to the measures...
But knowing that Sophia only gave him one day, the king suffered a serious blow and almost fell into coma on the spot.
"This arrogant woman!" Prime Minister Spindu gritted his teeth. "She didn't even leave us enough time for the meeting. This kind of unreasonable and barbaric behavior is really intolerable."
After some strong condemnation and protest, Home Secretary Edmund asked a key question: "What is the situation of King Beyer? Judging from Andrew's letters, he suffered a disastrous defeat and his life or death is uncertain.
.”
"Even if a friendly country encounters difficulties, can we betray our friendly country?" Prime Minister Spencer said righteously, "Even if we encounter an unfavorable situation in the war, can we give up our friendship with our friendly country?"
Edmund said: "But if we refuse Sophia's request, it will be equivalent to declaring war on her. She defeated Silverpine City in just one night. Are you sure we want to be her enemy?"
"Who do we want as our enemy? Minister of the Interior, do you have any special ideas?" Spindu pointed at Edmund and said, "The king has already said that the purpose of this meeting is to clarify our principles and specific measures.
It will be decided at the follow-up meeting!”
Edmund shook his head and said: "Prime Minister, according to the conditions proposed by Sophia, we no longer have time to hold a follow-up meeting."
Spindu shouted: "This is a rude request and we cannot accept it!"
Chief Bachelor Conrad shook his head and said: "I think we should hold another meeting to discuss this issue."
The meeting hall fell into silence, and King Ronnel finally recognized the fact that these ministers could not solve the problem at hand, and they had to find a few people who could put forward constructive opinions to participate in the meeting.
Two names appeared in his mind. The first was his third son, Charlemagne Lane.
The third prince Charlemagne is the pride of the king and the pride of the Kingdom of Lion. His extensive knowledge, calm character, and handsome appearance make him appreciated by everyone. The prince is thirty-one years old this year, and almost everyone
Believe that he will become the successor of the kingdom.
The only flaw that can be found in Charlemagne is that he has not been able to achieve convincing achievements so far. The king has given him many opportunities, but in the end his achievements always fall short due to some inexplicable reasons. In the words of the queen, this child
My luck is really bad.
Just last year, a group of thieves robbed several nobles and killed an earl. It only took Charlemagne three days to capture the suspects, and he quickly interrogated the whereabouts of the other thieves.
Unfortunately, the perfect beginning did not lead to a perfect ending. According to the clues provided by the suspect, Charlemagne did not catch the other thieves, but was ambushed by the thieves. Although with the help of the Golden Lions, Charlemagne escaped unscathed.
, but this incident had a very bad impact on him. Even a cautious bachelor once said: "Before inheriting the throne, the prince needs more opportunities to prove himself."
Now the opportunity has come. If he can successfully solve the crisis in Cotai City, all negative comments will disappear.
Of course, the king did not forget another person, the Demon Prince Chris. This name often appeared in his nightmares. Although he did not want to see Chris, he had to admit that he was a person who could solve problems.
He defeated the bandits, put down the rebellion, controlled the plague, and even repelled the foreign enemies. This devil's luck is really good. Maybe he can give some help in this matter.
Chris, who had been grounded for two months, was in a bad mood, but he cherished this opportunity. The king sent someone to remind him that as long as he could give a reasonable suggestion, he would regain his freedom.
So he patiently listened to the arguments at the meeting. After listening to nonsense for four hours, he finally couldn't help but speak.
"Ministers, I just want to know one thing. What is the focus of today's debate?"
Prime Minister Spindu shook his head in disappointment: "Your Majesty, it's rare that Your Majesty has high hopes for you. Haven't you seen the complexity of the problem clearly now?"
"Sorry, Mr. Prime Minister, I have lived in the castle for too long and I am not very clear-headed. Could you please give me some advice as to what is so complicated about this problem?"
Spindu sighed and said: "If we agree to Sophia's conditions, it will be tantamount to offending His Majesty Sean. If we reject Sophia's conditions, it will be tantamount to facing a terrible war."
"A terrible war," Chris sneered. "What did we send Andrew to do? Admire the snowy scenery in the north? We sent the army, wasn't it just to fight?"
"But," Spindu swallowed, "the current war situation is somewhat unfavorable to His Majesty Sean, so we are considering whether to ease the relationship with Sophia."
"After all I have said, I have never heard you mention the name of Golden Light City!" Chris gritted his teeth, "That is our territory, where our people live, and where the best ironware in the Lion Kingdom is produced, and now it turns out that
It has become a bargaining chip for us to please the enemy!"
"Watch your words, Chris!" the king shouted, "Bair is our friend, not our enemy!"
"Whoever invades our territory is our enemy! Since Andrew took away the Golden Lion Army, he must take back Golden Light City. This is his bounden duty as a general!"
Chris' emotions were a little out of control. He was extremely disappointed with this meeting, although everyone's performance was within his expectations.
But Edmund's words made Chris calm down immediately: "Your Highness, Reginald participated in this war. He captured Silverpine City in just one night and used a special weapon to destroy it.
A city wall."
"Reginold, does he have a special weapon?" Chris sat back on the chair, his expression changed.
Although he didn't want to hear Reggie's name, the king still smiled when he saw Chris's fearful expression: "My child, you finally know how complicated the problem is, and you finally know how serious our situation is."
"Reginold is difficult to deal with. We must find a proper method." Chris fell into deep thought. Seeing his serious state gave the king a glimmer of hope in him again.
After ten minutes, Chris thought of a countermeasure.
"Does anyone know why Reginald helped Sophia?"
The Prime Minister said: "Of course it is for profit. As far as I know, Sophia used Hanmaple Fortress as a bargaining chip to bribe Reginald."
"Han Maple Fortress?" Chris's eyes lit up, "He really does exist. He was able to snatch land from the Bayers. I really admire him."
This sentence was very harsh. The king frowned and said: "Chris, I'm waiting for your advice!"
Chris said: "Reginold is a tricky factor. We can't fight him head-on, but we can't let him do whatever he wants. He wants to expand his territory. We can also sneak attack his rear. I suggest sending an army immediately.
Go to Zhilin City and prepare to attack Shattering Snow City! Reginald will definitely retreat when he is threatened, and Sophia will not be afraid of losing Reginald!"
