214. Chapter 214 Kingdom Capital Line

    The merchant fleet sailed north along the Scarlet Water River tributary and passed through Silver Light City into the Grand Canal leading to Kingdom Capital.

    Tasa remembers reading it in The Chronicles of Greycastle, which was a wasteland two hundred years ago. In order to transport the silver mines from the nearby mines to Kingdom Capital, Wimbledon I convened the Stonemason Society and nearly 10,000 handyman. It took twenty years to build this canal connecting Kingdom Capital and the Silver Mine, and a silver mine was formed around it. The city was later named the Silver Light City by the first king.

    However, the scene displayed in front of him is difficult to associate with the wasteland two hundred years ago. The banks of the canal are dense farmland, and further away, it is a piece of village. This made him think of Border Town’s Kingdom Road. When the road is repaired, I am afraid that the foot of the mountain will become dense.

    “I heard that you used to be a Kingdom Capital person?”A woman’s voice rang from behind.

    Tasa turned her head and found that it was the owner of the caravan Margery. He nodded. “Before becoming a palace guard, I have lived in the inner city.”

    “How does it feel to return to the place?”

    “To be honest, okay,” he said. “If it weren’t for my appointment, I would rather stay in Border Town. Although Kingdom Capital is prosperous, it has a feeling of poor breathing. ”This is especially true for the underlying noble, Tasa thought.

    “Do I?”Margery smiled. “You are against Roland.How much does His Royal Highness know? ”

    “What happened?”This question gave him a slight glimpse.

    “I think he is such an incredible person. It is very bad when you are at Kingdom Capital. You should have heard a lot of rumors about him, but in Border Town…It’s not like the rumors, it’s unpredictable both in behavior and in thoughts,” she paused. “If the Steam engine is just a testimony to his versatility, why even the soldiers he trained are so popular. different? ”

    Tasa glanced at the First Army soldiers sitting on the deck – considering that the activities at Kingdom Capital nearby should be as concealed as possible, they were not equipped with muskets, nor were they wearing uniform uniforms, but instead replaced them with a variety of leathers. Armor, carrying a wooden gun behind him, looks like a caravan of the caravan. Most of them were far from the Western Region for the first time. Although they were curious and looked around, there was a lot of discussion, but no one took off their shoes or put down the weapon.

    On the other hand, the mercenary of the caravans, many of them have already drilled into the cabin in order to avoid the sun. The three or four people who stayed on the deck took off their shoes, untied the weapons and put them aside, lying flat in the shade.

    “I don’t know too much,” Tasa said helplessly. It’s not that he wants to hide, but he doesn’t know it – since Fourth Prince arrived in Border Town, it has become very different from before. “Probably His Royal Highness has been pretending to be himself.”

    YesIs this the case? ”Margery was undecided about this answer. She was silent for a moment and suddenly extended her finger to the front. “Look, that is the wall of Kingdom Capital, we are coming.”

    At the end of the horizon there is a hazy gray, just standing here, can feel the grandeur of the city wall-this is the stonemason will be dissolved before the most outstanding works, whether the height or thickness in the greycastle are the premier, heard that the walls of the interior and even left rooms and passages, Can accommodate up to thousands of soldiers resting, allowing for no-interval patrols and quick support.

    When the walls were clearly presented in front of Tasa, the figure of the refugees also entered his field of vision.

    A large number of civilians gathered outside the suburbs of Kingdom Capital. They built a simple shed along the city wall. The fire in front of the shed was white smoke, and it seemed that they were cooking wheat porridge. For the time being, these people have not yet broken their food, and their looks are not bad. However, Kingdom Capital’s relief food will certainly not be released endlessly. When the nobles select the right labor force, they will send troops to drive away these people.

    “What are you going to do?”Margery was curious, “Is the soldiers under the Highness going to promote the pull people?”

    “No, it’s so inefficient, and it’s easy to get noticed by others,” Tasa shook his head. “If you want to work at Kingdom Capital, either buy an official or hire a Mouse, you should know it.”

    “Yes,” she laughed. “I wanted to remind you two sentences. It seems unnecessary. Then, if there is a need for money, come to me. ”Margery handed him a sign. “As soon as this is displayed, the store manager will contact me immediately. Of course, a hundred gold royals can be directly borrowed from it. ”

    “Thank you.”Tasa took the token – it was a deep red stone, covered with a line of words that had never been seen before.

    “You’re welcome,” she chuckled. “These money will be repaid to me along with the interest.”

    Upon arriving at the Canal Dock, Tasa left the First Army soldiers in the suburbs to wait for news, avoiding the sight of the Kingdom Capital patrol as much as possible, and entering the city with the caravan. When passing the city gate, he noticed that the guards were strictly strict, and apparently did not want the fountains of the eastern region to be mixed into the city.

    Entering the city, the first thing that caught his eye was a row of towering gallows.

    The woman who was tying up four boss hands was screaming in the scorching sun. This scene caused Tasa to frown.

    “Timothy screamed for the witch in the city, they were all unlucky to catch,” Margery sighed. “But it’s not accurate. Some witches are nothing but noble, just take the opportunity to get rid of it. It’s hard to say that it’s better to continue being imprisoned in a dark room where you don’t see light, or to get rid of pain as soon as possible…Anyway, I hope they can get rest. ”

    In the six months of Border Town’s, Tasa has realized that witch is not as unforgivable as Church’s propaganda, and that they have no difference from ordinary people except for their strange ability. The woman on the gallows judged from the figure, the smallest may be only fourteen or five years old, which made him feel a little depressed, and the feeling of breathlessness came back.

    The outer capital of Kingdom Capital has not changed much since half a year ago. Except for the main road facing the city gate, the other roads and alleys are muddy. The midsummer sun caused cracks on the ground, and as soon as the carriage passed, a yellow dust was raised. It is hard to imagine that the capital of the kingdom was lost to a secluded small town outside the Western Region in municipal construction.

    After crossing the two streets, the caravan went to the market area, and Tasa waved goodbye to Margery and turned into an alley.

    He was familiar with the road to the entrance of the “ground trumpeter” pub, and walked straight into the door.

    Hey, you floating shred! It is only open here at night! ”Someone shouted.

    Tasa ignored it, went straight to the bar, and rubbed the brew man whispered on the wine cup: “Remember me?”

    “Which stone are you smashing out of the grasshopper, didn’t you hear the pub open at night?”He impatiently put down the wine cup, his face was raised, and the two waiters who sorted the tables and chairs were also surrounded. “Now I count three times – Tower, Lady Tasa?”

    “It’s me,” Tasa spit aside. “I have a good business to hand over to you.”
