Conquest

    Chapter 151 [Invitation of the Duke]

    Now is the moonlit, Shaar with this court attendant all the way to the emperor's big tent, the road clearly felt the alert stinging, although the number of imperial Guard patrols did not increase significantly, but imperial Guard have After being heavily armed, and after the Exchange camp, the emperor's big tent around, each set up a new battalion, so that the two teams Imperial Guard stationed nearby.

    The big tent where the emperor is located is like a house. It is a country's supreme travel. This is not so much a tent, but rather a detachable moving palace.

    Big tent actually a few into a few out, on both sides of the guard is obviously extremely elite samurai, a baleful aura, Shaar from between, are obviously able to feel each guard samurai body that kind of strong qi, he these days in Imperial Capital, heard of some royal The business thing, it is said, these emperors around the most trusted Guardian warrior, the name seems to be called what "Nightfall Guardian" and so on …

    When Kontos saw Shaar coming in, he didn't get up, but leaned on a soft couch. The great's face is still with burnout, apparently the day before the drunken, for the old and sick great Emperor of Lance body, is a huge burden, even after a day and a night of rest, the spirit of the great still failed to recover, Shaar came in, looking at the old man, Obviously from each other's face to see a little weak appearance.

    Watching Shaar walk in, the emperor slightly sat a little straight, and then lifted his hand, let the room of the attendant all quit, soon, the emperor's side, only a person–shaar the first time to see the emperor, once seen behind the emperor that plain appearance of the middle-aged, The middle-aged man still stood quietly in the corner, like the shadow of the emperor.

    Shaar looked at the middle-aged man and then stood up straight: "Your Majesty, I am coming."

    The emperor raised his eyelids and showed a smile on his face: "Shaar, I heard that you were hurt a little today?"

    "Mm."Shaar was nervous, but his face was calm and relaxed. Then he waited for the emperor to ask questions. He first went to the forest today to learn how to bring people into the forest to hunt, how to chase an Arctic Fox, how to get lost and his companions lost. When I came to the lake, I happened to meet "a Miss" and then happened to block an assassination.

    When it comes to the assassination, Shaar's tone is more serious, and he carefully describes the appearance of the assassin and his skill.

    "The man's archery is extremely powerful! Using longbow, iron ridge heavy arrow, such an Archer, a certain amount of arm strength, and he seems to be very good at the jungle lurking technique – Your Majesty, I am a hunter from the mountains, I can see that the other is also a veteran! ”

    "Mm."After the emperor listened quietly, he was undecided. He seemed to be somewhat ecstasy and did not say anything immediately.

    The things of today are indeed true.

    To assassinate this kind of thing, Kontos is not surprised at all. Even if he is himself, he does not know how many assassinations he has encountered in his life, just…The goal of assassination is placed on your own daughter-in-law, which is a bit complicated.

    In any case, if it is a hostile force, then you should be the first goal.

    Moreover, the trick is that it happens to be in Daphne's arrival in the royal garden! It was just at that time that her horse was frightened and lost! Just as her servant ran out to find a horse! Just left her alone at the lake! !

    Where is it so many coincidences? ! Hmph!

    Frankly speaking, when I got the news, Kontos even gave birth to a doubt about Shaar: It was just at this time that Shaar had happened to meet the assassination.

    This royal garden has a huge footprint. Even if he is lost, he can't go anywhere. So he happened to meet Daphne? !

    Stop an assassination? Is it intentional or unintentional?

    Don't blame Kontos for being skeptical. It's really in his status. He has experienced too much in his life and has to think about it when he encounters things!

    He also had a careful inquiry about Daphne, but Daphne said very clearly: "Shaar Baron does not know my identity. I only told him that I am a daughter of aristocrat. This Lord Baron seems to have a little understanding of the rules of hunting, so I am not sure about my identity. ”

    If Shaar is deliberately looking for someone to play this movie, come to Bo to save the Crown Princess…Then he should not pretend to be the identity of Crown Princess! if not……Where is his credit?

    Moreover, Kontos also from the bottom of his heart, do not believe that this young man who is valued by himself is so unbearable. This guy was born in the mountains, there should be no potential power, to invite a powerful assassin to sneak into the royal garden, with him to play such a scene…Shaar, he still has no such power.

    So, is it a coincidence? !

    The Imperial Guard, which rescued the two in the woods today, has been immediately transferred back to the city by the emperor and sealed down!

    The Chamber servants of Crown Princess Daphne, the servants who left in the woods to find horses and left the Crown Princess by the lake, were all arrested by the emperor secretly and interrogated.

    As a result of the interrogation, two servants have committed suicide, but they have not left any valuable clues.

    So,Ok, at least that this thing has nothing to do with Shaar. The servants around the two Crown Princess have been with Daphne for several years, a few years ago…Shaar is still hunting in the mountains.

    The emperor was fascinated, and Shaar stood there quietly, and did not speak, waiting quietly for the emperor's movement.

    Finally, the emperor was silent for a long time, only sighed a little, sneered: "Ming spear easy to hide, the cold arrow shot in the dark is difficult to guard! Hey, Shaar, you have worked hard today. I heard that you have an arrow in the assassin. It seems that there is nothing wrong with seeing you. I am relieved. ”

    After a pause, the emperor said faintly: "The girl you saved is a person who has a great relationship with my royal family. It is aristocratic aristocrat. However, you should not mention this matter anyway, no matter what you see today, what you hear, It’s all in the stomach, understand?”

    Shaar Zheng nodded and he was relieved – well, it seems that it has nothing to do with himself.

    "Oh, assassination of this kind of thing, I have never known how many times I have encountered…Hey! If there is anything, I would like to see if these clowns hiding in the dark are exactly who! ”

    The emperor seemed to be even heroic, laughing and standing up.

    Shaar hesitated in the heart and looked at the old emperor and looked at the kind of spirit that was forcibly supported by the emperor's face. Shaar suddenly had a hint of pity in his heart.

    To be honest, Shaar has a good impression of Kontos. After all, in his life, after coming out of Primal Wildfire, he came to the outside world. The best person, besides General Adrick, Chubby Ruhr, etc., is the Great Emperor of Lance.

    Regardless of the motivation of the emperor, he was very appreciative of himself after seeing himself. The first time in the Imperial Palace, although he had some disguise, the emperor still encouraged himself. Some time, then the prince is also promoted, and this time will be hunting the day, but also in the public to carry themselves. The number of naked clothes hurts, the kind of heroism, and it really makes Shaar's heart can not help but give birth to a few points.

    Thinking of this, Shaar bowed his head slightly and sincerely said: "Your Majesty, please be sure to take care. These assassins dare to sneak into the royal garden, I am afraid it will not be good for you…"

    Hillbilly was in the heart, and then he untied his coat and took off an elliptical thing from the close-fitting. It was the side of the dragonscales.

    Shaar held both hands and took two steps. He slowly said: "Your Majesty, this is my self-defense, solid and abnormal, the sword does not enter! Please also take down your self-defense! ”

    Kontos the Great stunned and looked at the things in Shaar's hand. He was the Emperor's esteem. What kind of treasure hasn't seen? At first glance, I suddenly saw a glimmer of singularity in my eyes, and even the shadow-like middle-aged man standing in the corner couldn’t help but have a hint of surprise in the eyes of the hibiscus.

    "Is it? ThisThere was some shock in the voice of Kontos: "This…Could it be ……

    "It's dragonscales."Shaar said: "This is the self-defense thing I got from chance. Please take it down!" There is such a thing close to the body, even if there are some assassins attacking, you can keep your peace. ”

    Kontos the Great was really touched by this moment.

    He naturally knows the value of dragonscales! Such a powerful armor, for a warrior, the value can even be a second life! Such powerful protective equipment can save a soldier's life at a critical moment! What's more, Shaar is about to go to the frontiers to take office. In the land of the frontiers, there will inevitably be some wars. It is the most need for such strong armor to save lives. This kid actually took it out and offered it to himself without hesitation, which is enough to explain his mind…

    The emperor moved slightly and looked at Shaar carefully. The young boy’s face was sincere – he didn’t know, this dragonscales, Shaar had at least a hundred pieces! However, most of them exist in the old homes in the mountains, and there are only three or five pieces.

    The emperor’s heart was happy, he smashed Shaar, haha ​​smiled: “Put it up! I am an imperial emperor, I can accept your loved ones! Well, you are in the army for the battle, for the empire to fight the battlefield, these things are needed. ”

    Then the emperor proudly said: "I have thousands of armor, loyal royal guards, forgive those mice hidden in the dark can not hurt me, your red heart, I received!"

    Shaar laughed, but did not take back things. He said calmly: "Your Majesty, this dragonscales, I have some, I use enough, so I don't have to be polite with me."

    As he said, he insisted that the dragonscales be placed on the table in front of the soft couch, and that was a few steps back.

    The emperor was moved and looked at this kid. Shaar said the truth, that is, the meaning of not relying on merit. Such a loyal and loyal young man made the emperor happy.

    He glanced at the dragonscales on the table, and his heart moved… The strong defense of dragonscales is indeed well known. It is indeed very beneficial to have this thing to be stored close to the body, that is, light and secret.

    After thinking about it, the emperor smiled and said: "Well, I will accept your things!" But I can't take your things with you. ”

    After looking at Shaar’s heroic appearance, the emperor slightly sank and raised his voice and said: “Come on!”

    There was a response from the outside immediately.

    A middle-aged warrior in soft armor strode in and stood next to Shaar. When I walked in, the man broke his hair, wearing soft armor, brown eyes, dark skin, steady pace, standing next to Shaar, Shaar immediately felt as if he felt something, just felt like standing beside a beast!

    The middle-aged man’s eyes are full of light, watching the emperor steadily say: “Your Majesty!”

    "Junker."The emperor had a very easy-going attitude towards this middle-aged man who came in: "This is Shaar Thunder Baron next to you, and it is also my young favorite."

    This middle-aged warrior named Junker glanced at Shaar and nodded slightly: "Lord Baron!"

    Hey! Kid, you should have heard of the name of Nightfall Guardian, who is the head of Nightfall Guardian and one of the most trusted people around me. ”The emperor smiled slightly and immediately said: "Junker, I have one thing to tell you to do! Shaar Baron is about to go to the frontier to take office, and the borderland is in danger. After returning to the city, you will find Shaar Baron from the Imperial Palace arsenal to find a good set of equipment. Well, Shaar, I don't know what weapon you use the most. Anyway, I will give it to Junker. I will give you a set of weapons and vests. ”When the emperor said it, he slammed Junker again: "That's good!"

    Hearing this, Junker deliberately looked at Shaar again, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes. He has been with the emperor for many years. Although the emperor has promoted the young generals in the military in recent years, especially to vigorously enrich the power of the eagle, it is extremely rare to express love for a general.

    The Kontos Emperor spoke for a while and was a little tired, and immediately signaled Shaar and others to leave.

    Shaar got out of the tent, and the Junker followed him and called Shaar: "Lord Baron."

    Shaar stopped and turned to look at Junker. I don't know why. In the face of this Junker, Shaar always has an unnatural feeling in his heart. It is like standing in front of a beast at a close distance. This Junker looks ordinary, but always let Shaar has a feeling that "this person is extremely dangerous."

    "Well, Junker General, what else?"

    Junker said faintly: "I am Flag Battalion, General's name please don't say it anymore."His voice was a glance, not humble: "Your command is made, let me choose the weapon for Lord Baron, please also inform your address, after I go back, I will send it immediately."

    Shaar left his address at Imperial Capital and left quickly.

    I stayed in the royal garden for the night, and the next morning, I ended up hunting.

    The emperor held a grand ceremony in a symbolic manner, and encouraged some of the aristocrat children who were outstanding in the hunting. Naturally, including Shaar, he did not have a lot of prey in the past two days, except that the emperor had a carriage horse to carry the younger Baron, who would be stupid at this time. Picking faults?

    Several young people, including Shaar, were encouraged by the emperor in public. Each of them rewarded a bow and arrow and a robes. These things are not necessarily in the eyes, they can stand here. Is the child of the giants, who will spend the time? However, it can be favored by the emperor and attracts the attention of the emperor. Therefore, the future is much better.

    These two days, the emperor's attitude toward Shaar, the family aristocrat are in the eyes, secretly confessed to their young disciples, looking for opportunities to close the Shaar Baron.

    So the commendation is only the end, these and Shaar together reward young aristocrat, have come to find Shaar talk chat, quite intimate after some, on the spot about a few reception invitation, Shaar is not afraid, although he understand the Emperor's meaning, do not like himself to show too drill, But people to show good, they do not need to make a preaches look.

    Immediately after the camp was returned to the city, the Imperial Guard opened all the way, and thousands of people returned to Osgiliath.

    Back at the residence, Shaar took a rest for a little while, and Solleater came in to announce that someone was visiting.

    Visitor

    Shaar thought about it, and he really has no friends at Imperial Capital…Is it Carvesylver to find trouble for himself?

    Then Solleater's face was rather weird, adding: "Lord…The person said, it is Duke Minas's home. ”

    Shaar jumped up!

    Duke Minas? !

    This name, he is no stranger! !

    Duke Minas, the Empire is now the oldest and most prestigious military Senior Elder! Although he has not mastered the military power, in recent years, even the official positions have retired, and at home, he is idle, but who does not know his prestige in the military? Most of the eagle's main squadrons are from the old man! Even the warlord party is no shortage of the old duke of the old duke!

    Among the people they know, Adek, Ruhr, the two empires, can be said to be Duke Minas students! Mmm…And Green, Mad Dog is also! !

    Now, in such an emperor, Senior Elder, send someone to see yourself?

    Shaar suddenly jumped in my heart! !

    After he came back, he had a little inquiries at home and already knew the origin of the Crown Princess he met!

    That Crown Princess, it seems to be the little daughter of Duke Minas…

    Eh ……Is it that I have teased my daughter, and now that Father is coming to take revenge? !

    After a few minutes, Shaar immediately went out to meet in the yard.

    I saw a man standing in the yard.

    The man was covered in a coarse linen robes, as if it were just a normal servant dress, with short blond hair and long limbs. His body was very burly and straight, and he was deserve to be called under the door of Senior Elder in the army. Even a servant was so magnificent.

    Can see the appearance of this servant, so Shaar could not help but stay.

    This person…

    Eh, how do you say it? This guy is also looking like he is in his thirties. A face should have belonged to the kind of heroic spirit, but…He just left a face with a big beard!

    However, anyone who keeps a beard will always give people a feeling of wildness and boldness. But this pair of eyes is a little slender. His original heroic spirit is a bit more feminine, plus one. It’s a bit weird to have a beard and a beard.

    Even though the other party is just a servant's dress, but under the door of Duke Minas, maybe it is also a duke disciple and so on – know that Duke Minas's apprentice, there is no waste! Look at Adrick and Ruhr Green and you will know.

    Moreover, although this person just stood casually in front of him, it seemed to be lazy, but in that bone, it made Shaar feel a kind of incomprehensible British spirit!

    So, Shaar nodded very solemnly and didn't look down on his eyes. He said, "I am Shaar Thunder. I am under the door of Duke Minas…"

    "I am the next man next to the Duke. You can't help but ask, Lord Baron, if there is any order, let me call Rhody."The people grinned, but the smile was a bit more flamboyant. After a deep look at Shaar, he smiled and said: "I heard that Shaar Baron was born in the grass. Today, I really don't take it away."

    After that, he pointed out that there was a horse carriage on the street outside the courtyard: "Lord Duke has Shaar Baron to go to the meeting. If you are convenient for Mr. Baron, please follow me."

    Duke Minas invites people of this identity to look up and down the empire. Which one would say a "no" word? Don't say it's okay, even if it's really something to be done in your hand, you will let it go first.

    Shaar didn't hesitate: "Okay, I will go with you!"

    After that, the U-turn gave Solleater a few words, and as the servant went out, he came to the door. The servant pointed at the horse carriage and smiled: "Baron please get on carriage."

    Shaar shook his head and said: "I haven't seen Lord Duke, but I have heard a sentence from Lord Duke: solider, not carriage!"

    Say, Solleater has already brought in the horses, and Shaar turned over and looked at the servant immediately: "Please also lead the way ahead, I will follow the horse."

    This is called Rhody, the servant slightly stunned, and then squatted deeply, Shaar, a smile appeared in the corner of his mouth, not much to say, jumped on the horse carriage, sat in front, raised the whip and sipped a lifetime, rack The horse carriage took the lead.

    Shaar saw the movement of this person's whip, and the eyes suddenly became bright!

    Although this Rhody is a servant, but the whips of the whip, the wrist is only a slight shake, the soft whip suddenly shakes straight into a line, the way can not tell the crisp and neat! !

    The strength and skill of these wrists, even if Shaar is self-satisfied, I am afraid I can't do it! If it is said that this Rhody will not be a martial skill, it is a deceit! !

    This Duke Minas is under the door…Really "hidden dragon! Even a small groom has this out of the ordinary strength!

    Shaar was awe-inspiring and slowly followed the horse.
