Chapter 1422 Xia De's Mission (Part 2)
The Britannia Empire was the Franks' greatest enemy.
Therefore, the number of spies sent by the Frank Empire to the Britannia Empire was almost the total number of spies sent to other countries.
From traffickers to lackeys in the palace, you can almost see spies from the Frank Empire in various professions.
Every once in a while, these spies lurking in the Britannia Empire will compile all the slightly valuable information they have recently discovered, and then submit it to Shade for browsing.
Although the information submitted to Shade for browsing has been screened and has some value, most of it is still unavailable.
Often there is nothing found after browsing through a piece of paper full of records.
However - even though browsing the various information sent back by the spies often yielded nothing, Shade still enjoyed reading it.
After all--you might get lucky one day and learn some valuable information.
Shade patiently read all the information recorded on the paper.
But gradually—Xia De began to feel impatient.
During this period, Shade has been busy and anxious every day. Now that he wishes he could grow a dozen hands to help him work, his patience is no longer as good as before.
If in the past, after seeing that the spies lurking in the Britannia Empire did not return any valuable information, Shade might still be able to treat it with a normal heart.
But Shade is gone now.
Now seeing that the spies lurking in the Britannia Empire had returned only information of little value, Shade only felt more and more angry.
Just when Sha De felt that he could hardly stand it anymore and wanted to tear up the document in his hand, a line of words on the document suddenly attracted Sha De's attention.
[Emperor Ilsa Augustus of the Britannia Empire would read a book without any cover in her room whenever she had free time. According to rumors-the book Ilsa read was a kind of helpful book. Yu Zhiguo’s Wonderful Book]
Behind this piece of information, it was also marked which spy provided this information - it was provided by a maid lurking in Baiyang Palace.
Seeing this information, Shade's brows frowned unconsciously.
This is not the first time that Shade has seen this information.
As early as three years ago, information similar to this appeared in front of Xia De.
Shade didn't pay attention to this information at first.
I feel like this is just one of many worthless pieces of information.
But this piece of information has kept appearing in front of Sha De's eyes over the past three years.
The original belief that this was just a piece of worthless information finally began to shake.
"Books that help... govern the country..."
Shade whispered in a low voice that only he could hear.
A bold idea suddenly emerged from Shade's heart.
——That Ilsa...she has such strong skills in governing the country at a young age, and has built the Britannia Empire into an unprecedentedly powerful state...could it be all because of this book? !
As soon as a bold idea came out of Sha De's mind, this idea started to attack the city crazily in Sha De's mind.
It occupied most of the "territory" in Sha De's mind at an extremely fast speed.
The more Sha De thought about it, the more he felt it was possible.
Ilsa is only 15 years old.
At such a young age, he possesses such strong skills and courage in governing the country.
Shade has always found this incredible.
If... Ilsa can have such a powerful ability all because there is a set of textbooks teaching her how to govern the country, then everything will make sense.
Ilsa can possess such a powerful ability to govern the country just by reading books and studying on her own, so this set of books is really scary...
At this moment, another bold idea popped up in Shade's mind.
——If... I could own the set of books that Ilsa is reading now, then... could I quickly restore the Frankish Empire to its former glory...
This thought lingered in Shade's mind.
Didn’t leave for a long time...

…
"...Erwin."
Shade expressionlessly put down the document in his hand, which was filled with all kinds of information sent back by the spies, and called Erwin beside him in a calm tone.
"exist."
And Erwin quickly responded to the call of love.
"Erwin, go and call Ebel for me."
Shade continued to speak in his calm tone.
"I'm going to... give him a... arduous task that may only be accomplished by him carrying the 'No. 1 Spy of the Frank Empire'..."
…
…
Luo Lin Empire, somewhere within the territory.
Barr, Gill, Eugene, Charles, and Jeanne were walking in a dense forest with dejected expressions on their respective horses.
Barr thought with his butt and could deduce that Su Cheng would definitely send a large number of cavalry to hunt down them who were still trying to resist.
Therefore, in order to avoid the pursuit of the Britannia army, Barr and the others specially walked through "undeveloped areas" that did not even have dirt roads.
For example - dense jungle.
The reason why they looked so listless was because they were all so hungry.
They have become numb to this kind of hiding and living without a meal...
"Hold on a little longer." Bal encouraged the people behind him, "I've been here before. As long as we pass through this jungle, there will be a village ahead. Then, we can ask the villagers for some food."
After hearing Bal's words, the people who were already a little exhausted finally managed to raise some spirits and physical strength.
Bal did not lie to them.
After passing through this dense forest, a small village really appeared at the end of everyone's field of vision.
In order not to attract attention, Bal and others hid their war horses in a more hidden place in the dense forest.
Wrapping their swords with layers of cloth, pretending to carry them on their backs as ordinary luggage, and then quickly walked towards the village they had finally encountered.
While walking towards this village, they also prayed secretly-hoping that the villagers in the village they were about to enter were kind and friendly people who were willing to give them some food.
Bal and his friends were very lucky-their prayers came true.
After Bal and his companions entered this seemingly wealthy village, the villagers only looked at Bal and his companions with curiosity, without looking at them with hostility.
Not long after Bal and his companions entered the village, the village chief immediately came up to them and asked Bal and his companions why they had disturbed their village.
After learning that Bal and his companions were just asking for some food, the village chief warmly welcomed Bal and his companions into his home and planned to entertain Bal and his companions in person.
Bal and his companions were grateful and lucky to receive such a warm hospitality from the village chief.
After all, they had not felt such great kindness from others for a while, as they were living a life that was no different from that of a fugitive.
