Proof of the Sun King

At the beginning of the year 2523 of the imperial calendar, an army of about 1,000 people walked out of Athel Loren, which was covered with snow. Lead this army to Sylvania to rescue the little queen Elisara, who is still trapped.

To be fair, Alaros doesn't want to do this. For the wood elf hero, Alaros, who just made a great contribution in the battle to destroy Mogul, he just wants to enjoy the peaceful days in the forest and continue to think about it. how to please his goddess Lilith.

For Alaros, the eternal little queen Ella Ruili is indeed a top-level little beauty, but it is not his dish, and it has nothing to do with him. As for the high elves, although they call them verbally, but in the bones of Alaros He also dislikes high elves, especially the arrogant attitude of the high elves and the perception of Athel Loren as an overseas colony.

The presence of the Eternal Queen Elarelli in Athel Loren really surprised the wood spirits, especially since the two sides had not communicated for many years, and the Eternal Queen never left Ulthuan.

Isa's first divine choice saw Isa's deity. At this time, Queen Ariel's memory was a little confused. She only remembered that she was Isa sometimes, but she knelt down and begged the wood elf to rescue her daughter in Ela Ruili. At that time, Ariel still agreed and sent Alalos and a smaller army of wood elves, more than a thousand people.

The Twilight Sisters' frontier Ariel was left in Britannia to continue fulfilling the covenant with the Kingdom of Knights.

In addition to the passers-by like Alaros, the high-level trio who arrived in the empire a few days ago, Azharion, Belanaar, and Attila also found the emperor of the empire. Karl Franz felt very embarrassed about this— - The empire is now in many disasters, and all the extra troops that can be deployed are dispatched to the northern front. The emperor has to write to two people, the Elector of Marius of Avi and the Butcher King of Karak-Cadrin, asking them Send troops to help.

In fact, almost every faction hopes that the knights of Brittany will be dispatched. In this dark age, only the Brittanians have been victorious and kept their country away from corruption, plague, production reduction and various This kind of threat, but an amazing news spread in the old world, and everyone knew that the Knight Kingdom might not have the energy to lend a hand.

Everyone expressed understanding, but also felt deeply disappointed.

Hubald, Duke of Carcassonne, informed everyone in the entire Knight Kingdom.

That's not a rumor, that's true.

The fairy in the lake is really Lilith, the goddess of the moon.

At the moment of hearing the rumor, I don't know how many knight nobles wept bitterly, and I don't know how many young men with dreams of knighthood collapsed.

Duke Hubbard couldn't face all of this. He couldn't accept that his family had been holding on for thousands of years because of a scam, but at the same time, what the fairy in the lake criticized also made him speechless, and he couldn't even make any refutation. .

Yeah, Britannia wouldn't exist at all if there wasn't a fairy in the lake at that time, how dangerous was the situation in Britannia at that time? At the hardest, the number of Breton knights and the number of greenskins was 1:300! Almost all Bretons were desperate, most of the army was defending the castle, and the remaining few were almost completely scattered.

If it wasn't for Arthur, Randuin, and Sirruf, who had received the encouragement, guidance and the glory of the Holy Grail from the fairy in the lake at the time of despair, and found the meaning, purpose and courage of their own fighting, the entire kingdom would have been over. .

So, what to do? Betrayal or compromise?

Duke Hubbard didn't want to do either, and the disheartened Knight of the Grail announced that he would no longer obey anyone, including the Lagoon, including the Sun King, but he would continue to guard the Castle of Carcassonne until the end. For a moment, as for the future, leave it to his descendants to make a choice!

Just when Duke Hubbard was disheartened, Knight King Ryan officially announced to the whole of Britannia:

"The Kingdom of Brittany will hold a kingdom knight meeting in the capital Curona in early February, about the truth of the belief in the fairies in the lake, about the next national policy of Britania, about the future of Britania, It's all going to come out here."

This is the second meeting of the Knights of the Kingdom after an unknown number of years. Only a small number of people still remember that the last meeting of the Knights of the Kingdom was held after John II defeated Badshuihe.

Ryan appeals, whether you are willing to continue to believe in the fairies of the lake, whether you are willing to continue to stay in this country, whether you are still planning to fight for the old world, any kingdom knight should come to Curona and participate in the kingdom knight conference .

Many people regarded Ryan's actions as a threat. After all, as the god-chosen champion of the fairies in the lake, the Sun King would undoubtedly stand on the side of the fairies in the lake.

So is it possible that our Majesty the Sun King intends to gather us, the opposition, and sweep them all in one sweep?

Many knight aristocrats have this idea, including Campbell, the new Duke of Le-Angouran of the "Free Brittany" faction, and Jihad, the Duke of Lyonnaise, who do not want to participate in the kingdom's knight assembly. What is wanted is a coup, a military coup.

On the surface, Free Brittany gave Sun King Ryan fifteen days of "preparation time", which seemed to be generous, but in fact they also reserved enough preparation time for themselves to facilitate the gathering of the army.

What the Free Brittanian faction never imagined was that these **** serfs refused to answer the call of the knights! Refuse to follow the knights to seek justice in Curona, and even refuse to do anything to the temple of the fairies in the lake!

Inverted! Inverted! The serfs don't listen to the gentlemen anymore!

The knights were very angry, but this time was different. No matter what they said, the serfs were unwilling to accept the call.

So are the serfs really stupid?

Not at all, in fact, the serfs did the math very well.

Are our days getting better or worse under the brilliant leadership of the Lady of the Lake and Sun King Ryan?

Of course it's better than ever!

So, what did the Lady of the Lake do to us serfs?

Obviously it's also very good, the serfs don't know anything else, but they know the following three things.

First of all, the Lake Fairy Church announced a tax cut a few years ago, reducing the original ten taxes to fifteen taxes.

Don't underestimate these points, these points are often the difference between starving, eating bran and drinking water, and barely enough food and clothing! There are also various activities held by the church throughout the year and festivals, such as giving out sweets and liqueurs according to household registration, occasionally cooking porridge and organizing barbecues, as well as various worship activities, bards, circus tour performances, etc. But they are very popular among the people, especially in recent years because of too much food, the church has come to "tithe tax rebate" from time to time, and the life of the serfs is much better!

Secondly, how good His Majesty the Sun King Ryan has been to our serfs, needless to say? As long as His Majesty Ryan is mentioned, the first reaction of any serf is to give a thumbs up, and to the simple heads of the serfs, isn't the Sun King bound to the lady in the lake?

We do not oppose His Majesty the Sun King. On the contrary, we will blow up whoever speaks ill of His Majesty!

In the end, the serfs finally lived a good life. They were most afraid of returning to the dark times of the past. You must know that the existence of the fairies in the lake also provided the Bretons with 7 days of legal holidays every year. This Holidays must be taken off. We don't believe Ms. Huzhong. Are we going to take this holiday?

As for whether the lady in the lake is a human **** or an elf god? What does it matter? Are not elves the model of noble civilization? What is not to believe?

Makes no sense.

The knights found that they could not incite the serfs, and some knights planned to force them.

At this time, the method that Ryan had planned for many years in advance came into play.

Now, what are those petty bureaucrats, village elders, those militia captains, those freemen sergeants, rangers, those peasants, small traders, and self-employed people who are filled with the grassroots of the serfs in Brittany?

Veterans! He went on the Great Expedition with His Majesty Ryan! Many soldiers have even fought more than one Great Crusade! These veterans returned to their hometowns with glory and wealth, and they soon became the most prestigious group of people in the local villages and even towns. What about the crotch pants?" and so on.

Who do these veterans recognize? Do you recognize His Majesty Ryan or Lord Knight?

you guess?

The grassroots army can't be mobilized at all. Basically, if the mobilization is really strong, the knights have to dispatch the army to suppress this group of "mobs" first.

There is no time, and there is no way to do a military coup. The military coup will not work. We can only go to the Knights Conference together and see what Ryan has.

In this way, the knights who belonged to the "Free Britannia" faction could only rush to Curona with their family knights and squires, and were forced to participate in the Kingdom Knights Conference.

In early February 2523, inside the Curona Palace.

During this period of time, the city was full of knights and gentlemen who came from all directions of the kingdom, and the capital entered the most severe military control, but there were still more than tens of thousands of knights, knight squires, and aristocratic private guards arriving in Curona.

The whole city was facing a great enemy, and at the center of the storm whirlpool, Ryan also hurriedly moved his court to Curona.

In the king's study, there were red and blue tapestries on either side of the bright yellow carpet that symbolized the king's power. Ryan sat behind the desk, dealing with endless documents.

It was tiring, but it was necessary. Teresa and Aurora provided a part of the list of knights and nobles who entered the city, while Beria provided another part. Last night, Ryan and Surya stayed up all night and put these The list of knights and nobles is divided.

According to years of statistics, there are now 3,369 great nobles in Brittany.

There are 357 Holy Grail Knights in total (12 others are still missing).

210 people who have been awarded the title of Earl or above.

There are 1169 people who have been awarded the title of baron or above.

There are 4,655 knights in the kingdom and 21,274 with the title of knights of the knights.

That is to say, if Ryan is desperate for a national mobilization, Britannia can explode close to 30,000 knights in an instant, which is already the limit for the kingdom of knights with a population of 9 million.

So, how many of the 4,655 kingdom knights (about 4,100 people in Curona) are firm supporters of Ryan and the Fairy of the Lake?

Not many, only 21%.

So how many are of the Free Breton faction?

Not a lot, almost 33%.

The most knights can be said to maintain a neutral attitude. On the one hand, they cannot accept the fact that the fairy in the lake is actually an elf god, but on the other hand, just like Duke Hubbard faced, it can be said that there is no fairy in the lake. Without Brittany, in the tangle and pain, most of the knights remained neutral.

So the next knight meeting is extremely important, which will decide whether Brittany is divided, which will decide whether to regroup and start again, or completely fall into civil war.

"Dear, Duke Campbell and Duke Jihad are frantically forming gangs." Veronica was sitting on the sofa not far from Ryan, and the female speaker was drinking a hot drink with ease, and said lazily: "Why don't you hurry up and win the hearts of the people?"

"..." Ryan rolled his eyes at Veronica, and the Sun King shook his head: "That would be a disadvantage, I am the king."

"Tsk tsk, our dearest is the king." Veronica said sarcastically: "Tell me, Ryan, it's hard enough for you to be a king. You haven't slept for two days, haven't you? Since you became a king , have you ever had a comfortable life for a year? The whole day is war, internal affairs, diplomacy, endless public affairs, I have never been a king, but I don't think many nobles have been as tired as you, you are half-hearted God!"

"People have to live for themselves, but people can't just live for themselves." Ryan stuck his head out from behind the thick file, then shook his head: "Forget it, what am I telling you about."

"Then don't say more." Veronica put her hands on her hips, and the female speaker said imposingly, "Isn't your Royal Legion just outside the city? There are also the Lengxi Guards and the Old Guards! Transfer to the city! The Emmanuel Land Cruiser will also drive in for me, and crush all the rebels, those who are dissatisfied, and those who dare to challenge your authority!"

Ryan: "..."

The Sun King waved his hand in annoyance, indicating that if you don't understand, don't talk nonsense.

It is not easy to transfer troops into the town to suppress these rebellious nobles, not to mention his royal legion, even if it is only him and the ten Grey Knight recruits, plus the magic knights of the Son of Brittany directly under the fairy of the lake , enough to suppress the rebellious nobles.

and then? 1200 kingdom knights did not die on the road against the enemy, but died in their own hands?

What would the neutral knights think? What would the whole old world think? What will the civilians of Brittany think?

Furthermore, these "Free Britannia" knights have come to the capital to hold the Kingdom Knights Conference. They have agreed to come to the negotiating table with you, and Ryan wants to use a knife, so is he the choice of Tzeentch or Khorne? God's choice?

This made Ryan also feel very entangled. Because of the abandonment of the "New World" plan, the fairy in the lake can of course tell the Bretons confidently that I am here to collect debts, you ate my money and used me Yes, if you take mine, of course you have to fulfill your rights and obligations. The whole kingdom is given to you by me. Do you really think you don’t need to pay?

It's just that the goddess is enjoying it~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The mess left behind must be cleaned up by Ryan. The 33% opponents are the 1,300 elite knights of the kingdom who have undergone military training and proved themselves. If this ratio is calculated , behind them are nearly 10,000 Breton knights!

If they are "suppressed", what will Ryan use to fight the next war?

And those neutral knights are waiting for the Kingdom Knights Conference, waiting for Ryan's statement, Ryan can imagine why so many knights are neutral? Why is everyone not talking now?

It's not because of Ryan's prestige and powerful strength that he is willing to wait for him to explain.

But now Ryan is also very distressed. He has repeatedly deduced many times, but he can't find a solution that can solve this problem without bloodshed. He must not compromise, but he is not willing to kill these people, just like Duke Hubald. All the same, they are all good and should not die at the hands of their own people.

So, what to do?

That night, inside the palace, Ryan was sitting in his bedroom, thinking hard about what to do.

There was a knock on the door: "Lane, are you inside?"

"I'm here, Suria."

The dressed queen came in, and she looked at Ryan: "My dear, there are guests."

"Guest?" Ryan asked subconsciously, "is it a lady?"

"No, it's His Majesty the King." Suria said softly.

"King? Your Majesty?" Ryan was puzzled: "Which His Majesty the King? Dwarf? Elf?"

"Neither, it's ours, His Majesty the King." Surya laughed and went out.

Our Majesty the King? Lane's pupils shrank.

The door opened, and a green light and shadow walked in.

"Sun King, I think today is a good time."

"I think we should talk."
