Chapter 601 Every Family Has Scriptures that Are Hard to Recite
On the other side, at the Brunswick Royal Hotel, Ryan and the others finished their dinner and were sitting around the fire enjoying the snow. There were snowflakes flying outside the window. Brunswick was still in the midst of the Winter Veil holiday. From now to At the end of February, the snow will not melt.
The two children in the room happily played together. Although Devonhill was still very young, he often asked Sylvia to help him up, but the little guy learned quickly. He half crawled and half walked, following his brother's lead. Behind the ass, shouting loudly brother brother.
Frederick could also feel a strong sense of intimacy from Devonhill. The little boy played with his younger brother and went crazy.
Everyone by the fire was chatting about some topics. Both Ryan and Suria focused their attention on Emilia. Now, as the Countess of the Empire, Emilia, who holds the titles of the three top nobles, Milia talked the most. After staying in Nur for two years, Emilia actually encountered a lot of depressing things. If she hadn't relied on her longing for Ryan and the support of her son, she might have died a long time ago. Couldn't resist going to Brittania to find Ryan.
Between the words, the Duchess of the Empire could not help revealing some secrets of the empire. Ryan and Suria often smiled and said nothing after hearing this, but they kept it in their hearts.
Emilia said helplessly that when she returned to Nur, she was naturally supported. Among them, the two elite troops of Nur, the Nur Iron Armor Army and the Black Stone Guard, were the two elite troops of Nur, followed by the Black Lady of Nur. The Amethyst Academy of Elspeth von Drakken, the great wizard of the domain, and finally, Theodore Bruckner, the sanctuary powerhouse of Nuer, also represented more than a dozen knights of Nuer to support Emilia's mission. rule.
But as Emilia said, she is not as good as Ryan after all. Noor's nobles will only find her when the city council is arguing endlessly and when they need to consult her on important matters, and let her make a decision.
And Emilia is very smart. Ryan's little maid has accumulated a lot of experience in dealing with internal affairs under the influence of her years with Ryan. Every time Her Majesty the Countess encounters a problem, she can solve it relatively perfectly, mediate, and Making both parties feel acceptable strengthened her authority at court.
Then, Emilia can always get a big deal.
That is, a huge arms order.
In two years, on the Britannia side alone, relying on Ryan's relationship, Emilia brought in a huge arms order of more than 30,000 gold kroner for the Nuer gun factory.
Because of this, Ryan got the title "Nur's close friend" in Noor.
Then there is Fulgan's Legion of Ashes recently. With Ryan's intermediary, Fulgan placed a huge arms order of more than 50,000 kronor. The amount made Nuer dumbfounded. This guy is simply here to help Nuer clear the inventory Yes, the entire Nuer munitions warehouse was almost completely wiped out. The Nuer gun factory is currently producing at full speed and at full capacity to supply Fulgen's needs. In the old world, only the Nuer gun factory has the ability to produce in a short period of time. Complete such a huge order within time.
Fulgan also let go, I'm not afraid that I don't have money, but I'm afraid that you, Nur, don't.
And for an industrial city like Nur, what does a series of huge orders mean, no need to say more?
Therefore, the little maid is highly respected and loved in Nur, and her life is considered to be good.
"So what is the relationship between Nuer and Brunswick now?" Suria is still concerned about this. The female knight took off her high-heeled boots and wore a pair of long black silk legs. She sat side by side with Ryan, and Suria In fact, she is not very afraid of the cold, but she is obviously happy to put herself in the warm and friendly atmosphere.
The long-sleeved and dancing duchess pioneered the "Fireside Chat" activity when Ryan went out to fight. The female knight often invited people from the outside world, including nobles, businessmen, free people and even many serfs who worked in person, to come to the castle. Inside, by the fireplace in the reception room, the duchess had a cordial conversation and answered questions. The duchess was dignified, elegant, graceful, and approachable.
Surya established a stable communication bridge between nobles and serfs, and her strong affinity won people's understanding and respect.
In a sense, the image of Mrs. Suria is more deeply rooted in the hearts of all residents in the territory than Ryan. If Ryan is as breathtaking as a mountain, then Suria is as refreshing as a trickle. .
Compared with Suria, Emilia is a little more tender, and the way the little maid governs is to never leave her elector's palace.
"It's okay, Karl Franz seems to think about the problem too simply." Emilia laughed a little: "Nur is theoretically under the jurisdiction of the emperor, but it is a free city after all. When the title of duke was vacant, the city council was already in an autonomous environment. Karl felt that I had a good relationship with his family, and that my arrival would allow Nuer to take orders from his court in Brunswick, but he I don’t even think about it, I went back to Nur. Nur has a ruler, and the city council won’t listen to Karl’s orders. Could it be that I will fight against the city council for him? My existence at most is to improve the emperor’s status in Nur. little influence."
"But it's better than nothing." Ryan looked at Frederick who was playing: "At least he got a godson."
"The Nuer people's sense of identity with the empire comes more from the savior Ludwig, after all, it is his hometown." Emilia stretched out her white satin gloves to hold her beautiful and charming face, and complained: " As for Karl Franz, the Nuer people are not interested in him at all, or in other words, the Nuer people are different from the Ricklanders in that they are not interested in everything outside, and generally despise all outsiders."
"What about Wesson collar?" Suria continued to ask, the female knight was interested in another title of the little maid.
"Historically, Nuer and Wessonland were not one, and now they can be merged together because I have these two titles at the same time." Emilia obviously struggled when talking about this: "The fact is that the Wessenland People never regard the Nuer people as compatriots in a province. They look down on and resolutely despise the luxurious style and arrogance of the Nuer people. And they use guerrilla and ambush tactics to deal with greenskins and beastmen all day long. In the eyes of the Nuer, muskets, heavy artillery, steam tanks, line shooting and knight group charges are the unique romance of war."
"Hahahaha!" Ryan couldn't help laughing, Duke Musilon smiled wryly and shook his head, but he didn't say anything else.
The dark elf was sitting on the other side of Ryan wearing a black and white maid outfit and white thick pantyhose, leaning on Ryan's back and hugging his neck from behind. Olika smiled strangely: "It's really stupid human beings. Why make it so complicated, it’s very simple, launch a war of conquest, and all the people who lose will become slaves.”
"Hahahaha!" Ryan laughed even more happily.
"What's so funny! You're still laughing!" Ryan's laughter aroused Emilia's dissatisfaction. The little maid lifted a slender, straight calf wrapped in black velvet pantyhose, and grabbed the slippers on the silk feet , Throwing it directly towards Ryan's face, the Duchess of the Empire was a little annoyed: "Do you know how much energy I spent in order to balance the people in the two territories so that they would not fight among themselves? I am not you, you are now in Brittany Ya can solve the problem with one sentence, but I can't!"
Ryan reached out to hold the slippers, and the Duke was still smiling: "I understand you, Emilia, your temper has grown a lot in the past two years!"
"Hmph!" Emilia snorted with some resentment: "This is all forced out, talking too well will only make people bully."
Surya held Ryan's hand and was about to say something when suddenly heavy footsteps came from the door.
"Who?" Sylvia, the head maid, was a little strange. It was already almost seven o'clock in the evening. Who would make a surprise visit at this time?
Careful Sylvia thought about it for a while. This is the Imperial Royal Hotel. At this time, there are not many people who can visit directly without disturbing the guards, Ryan's servants, and the old guards. She decided to wait and see what happened.
Sure enough, there was a sound of opening the door very quickly. It was obvious that Ryan's knights and old guards heard the movement, but they just said a few words to the person who came, and then immediately returned to their room and closed the door.
Soon, the door rang: "Boom~dong~ Is anyone there?"
"Who is it?"
"Protector of the Empire, Conqueror of Darkness, Heir to All the Sacred Legacy of Charlemagne from Mountains to Seas, Emperor himself and Son of Emperors, Elector of Reikland and Grand Prince of Reikland, Grand Duke of Brunswick , Karl Franz is here." The visitor officially reported a small part of his name.
The door opened, and Ryan, Suria, and Emilia hurried out to greet them: "Welcome!"
Emperor Karl Franz was wearing a set of purple and gold casual clothes, and walked in from outside. To everyone's surprise, besides Emperor Karl Franz, his queen Helena also came. This is a A mature and beautiful woman with a slightly plump figure, with long golden hair, wearing a thick woolen coat and a long skirt studded with pearls and emeralds.
What surprised Ryan even more was that Emperor Karl Franz was holding a boy who looked about seven or eight years old. A robe with skulls, iron crosses and laurel wreaths on it. He looks very similar to Emperor Karl, with a tiger head and a tiger head, and his eyes are slightly hostile.
The servant at the back was still holding a little girl about three years old in her arms. This little girl was not afraid of strangers, and stared openly at Ryan and the others.
"Godfather! It's Godfather!" Before Ryan could say anything, his eldest son, Frederick, shouted happily. The little boy trotted unsteadily to the emperor: "Good evening, Godfather!"
"Hey~" Karl Franz immediately hugged Ryan's son. The emperor didn't put on any airs at this time, but rubbed Frederick's little face with his stubble lovingly: "F Redrick, Brunswick is fun!"
"It's fun, there's dad, mom, godfather, and Grandpa Ludwig and Uncle Geert!" The stubble made little Frederick scream, the little boy was more excited, compared to Ryan, Little Frederick is obviously closer to Karl Franz, after all, the two sides have met more often.
This made Ryan a little upset, so the Duke took the initiative to say: "Your Majesty the Emperor, you really brought me a big surprise!"
"I hope I didn't bother you." The emperor put Frederick Jr. down with a smile, and he shook his hand: "This is an informal family visit, don't be restrained, you are not the Duke, and I am not the emperor, I just think we fought We’ve gotten to know each other quite a bit, and it’s time to get to know the family members… This is my wife, Helena, this is my son, King Luitpold II, and this is my daughter Anna.”
"Hello!" It was the first time for Ryan to meet Empress Helena and Karl Franz's eldest son Luitpold II. Judging from the performance of his family, the emperor's family is still happy. of.
It seems that there have been rumors in the imperial court that Emperor Karl Franz is a strict wife, because the emperor has not had a female courtier since he got married, and he has only two children, all of whom are raised by his wife Helena. out.
His eldest son Luitbold was the name of his father, the last emperor of the empire, so this little boy is generally called Luitbold II.
"Come on, son, let me introduce you. This is Ryan Malcador, the Duke of Musillon, the champion of the Lady of the Lake, the hero of mankind. The old world." Emperor Karl took the hand of his eldest son, pointed at Ryan and smiled: "Didn't you always want to see him? Father brought you here today!"
The emperor's tone was very calm, but it seemed to be a little different. What was the difference? It just gave people a feeling of inexplicability. Ryan was still a little strange. The eyes of the seven or eight-year-old prince lit up, and he walked up quickly , First saluted Ryan, raised his head again, his eyes lost a bit of hostility, and smiled, he said seriously: "Your Excellency Ryan, you are a hero of mankind, I grew up listening to your heroic deeds since I was a child! It is a great honor to meet you today!"
After finishing speaking, the prince raised his head, his eyes were full of little stars, he looked like a fanatical fan who had finally met his idol and fit all his fantasies.
Looking at Frederick Jr., who was closer to Karl Franz, and Luitpold II, who admired him, Ryan felt unspeakably awkward and strange, feeling uncomfortable and weird.
Looking up, Ryan saw that Karl Franz had the same expression. The two fathers looked at each other, and suddenly there was a kind of sympathy for each other, and everything was silently understood.
That is called the tacit understanding of men.
The two sides introduced their family members in turn.
"Emmanolie, you are indeed here!" The emperor smiled at Emilia.
"You can be here, why can't I?" Emilia waved her hand impatiently: "You are the godfather, but he is the child's biological father."
The emperor smiled ambiguously, and said nothing more. Suria, Emilia and Helena, three extremely powerful women in the human kingdom, hit it off when they hit each other. Suria took them to see her with a tacit understanding. Favorite, Carl and Lane sitting by the fire remained.
"I knew you would come." Ryan's face was calm.
"I came as a friend, not an emperor." Karl Franz looked at the flames in the fireplace, and the emperor was silent for a while: "I just don't know, do you regard me as a friend?"
"Is there a difference?" Ryan said with a smile: "It's not the same. We are allies, that is, friends, and we must be friends. If one day we are not allies, then we will not be able to be friends."
"Heh ~ also." After hearing this, the emperor not only smiled, yes, some things are inseparable, he is, why isn't Ryan?
"In this case, let me ask you a question as a friend." The emperor pondered for a moment and said: "Suppose you are the emperor of the empire now, facing the candidates for the three chief wizards of the royal family, the Supreme Court of Guangming Academy Chief Odo, the former Chief Wizard and Supreme Dean of the Flame Academy Gehrman, and the newly-emerged Great Alchemist Gelt, how would you choose?"
"Ok……"
