Chapter 427

Watching griffins, having breakfast, tearing down the study, and then having a three-person show of two old and one young, wasted the first night of returning to the capital, but Lu Chen's figure really entered the eyes of the important officials of the kingdom.

After the three of them cleaned up and changed the room, Dwyen, who could not hold back his joy, took Lu Chen to start a decisive meeting with only a few important officials.

Because it was a temporary idea, no one prepared anything. After Dwyne pointed to the people below and introduced Lu Chen one by one, he asked Drake and the kingdom marshal Claudio to make a brief report on the current situation inside and outside the city, saving other finances and civil affairs.

In addition, Dwyne personally mentioned that his eldest son wanted to force Ulysses to abdicate when he was in the process of rebellion, but because Parn led the 34th Legion to unexpectedly and toughly defended the north gate of the royal city that was originally controlled by Angus, forcing several legions who were subordinate to the other party to enter the city, which eventually led to his inevitable failure to force the palace.

It's okay if my nephew is plotting rebellion, after all, there is a reason for the matter. Dwayne has long been mentally prepared, and there is also a letter sent back by Lu Chen before. But he thought of taking advantage of the situation, especially the few legions gathered from nearby in a hurry and wanted to support the academy to complete the sacrifice mission, which actually belonged to Angus, which made him feel heartbroken and felt that he was very failed. Because that means that the eldest son, who was the first-ranking eldest son, had already made this plan, and his usual filial piety and other things were pretending.

It makes sense that Delgado and other mercenaries could leave the capital at will, but after watching the King who was obviously in a much worse mood after talking about Angus, he secretly thanked Lu Chen, who was given timely reincarnation water, and then had a headache. How to comfort this future father-in-law.

However, the effect of advancing to the holy level seemed to be better than he thought. Before Lu Chen could think about what to say, Dwyne breathed himself and turned to Yin Qing and continued: "Now, the academy team is back. We are no longer alone. Let's talk about how to go next? It's best to solve this problem before the New Year so that everyone in the kingdom can celebrate the New Year happily."

Unfortunately, as soon as these words were said, the room became quiet. The important officials who had not had any trace of dark clouds were covered with their faces. Nye, Dwyne could only point at the old marshal and asked him to speak first.

"Uh~ Your Majesty, the situation in the royal city is complicated, and the three forces restrain each other. If the law is the only one, the second prince's 10,000 reinforcements will only cause a lot of losses. Please forgive me for being able to do so. Apart from waiting for the reinforcements to arrive, I really can't think of a way to quickly break the enemy." The named Marshal Claudi Euro could only admit his bad luck and speak straight.

Since someone started, Edoard, who was also the Prime Minister, could only give the king a sentence with face: "Your Majesty, just as Marshal Claudi Euro said. No matter how good the students are in battle, they cannot be considered as reinforcements. Their loss here is a great misfortune for the future of the kingdom; and according to Prince Drak, at least half of the reinforcements of the second prince were scattered soldiers, and our city guards were crippled during the rebellion. There were only four armies that could be effective, so it was not advisable to act rashly."

Then, others were forced to express their opinions. Some people asked how Lu Chen and Delake broke through the siege and entered the capital. After learning about the flying monsters like griffons, they were overjoyed and sighed at the blessing of the kingdom. In particular, a few people who arranged their daughters to Lu Chen secretly gave His Majesty the King who forced them to "sell their daughters", secretly rejoiced in their wisdom, and arranged several incompetent daughters without dealing with the matter.

However, the good news of the griffin monster only relieved everyone's frown and could not really dispel the haze that enveloped the royal capital, because the result of everyone's calculations was: Even if the griffin was sent as a messenger now, the reinforcements that received the order set off immediately, and the recent reinforcements will take a week to arrive. Moreover, the end of the year is approaching, and it will be more difficult to prepare food and grass than usual, and the marching speed will be slowed down due to the cold weather.

"Also, except for the rebels and the legions we now have, there are no more than thirteen legions that can be used on the surface. It is absolutely impossible to come all of them. If you want to have an overwhelming advantage, you must also mobilize the legions on the border." As the kingdom marshal, Claudean made the final supplement.

"The closest to this place is the northern border. The defenders have fourteen legions. Let's draw five from there and come back. There are five more places..."

"Wait, your Majesty, no army in the north can move."

Just as Dwyne made the decision, Lu Chen suddenly interrupted him.

"Why? Ulysses has failed. What you said in your letter cannot happen. Could it be that Belic was a fool, or the empire that had endured decades was willing to risk invasion of war, and really planned to seize the nineteen cities in the northern border?" While Dwyne couldn't figure it out, he was also worried that the chaos in the kingdom was not serious at present, but if it was accompanied by the invasion of the empire, it would be different.

"This~ Let me talk about it... Rossel was dead, was attacked by Federic and killed by a sneak attack. Bishop Jules was also killed by the assassin's poisonous sword." Delake wanted to hide this for the time being, but now he has to say it.

"What! Is it the Sixth Prince of the Empire who came here as a communicative student?"

"What should I do..."

"They actually dare to attack the bishop of the Holy See!"

"Even if Ulysses is captured alive this time, it will probably not be of any effect..."

"The conspiracy is definitely a conspiracy..."

As soon as Drake finished speaking, the ministers were shocked. After all, everyone here had been told, and only Dwyne looked at Lu Chen without saying a word; one was that the possibility of this matter was also written in the letter, and he had long guessed that Federic would succeed, and the other was that he saw the young junior brother's desire to speak but stopped. Obviously, there were other reasons that were not thought of.

"There are people here that I absolutely trust, just say whatever else." After waiting for a while, the room gradually calmed down. Seeing that Lu Chen was still hesitating, Dwyne had to speak. This sentence also attracted everyone's eyes to Lu Chen.

Although the king said this, considering the harm of the disaster scepter, Lu Chen still walked to Dwayne's desk without doing so, and wrote the word "artifact" with his pen. At present, the three of them knew the whereabouts of the scepter, and he really didn't want to make any more troubles.

But this made the hearts of the important officials beat wildly again, because they saw the look of horror on the faces of the King and Drake.

Lu Chen, who was worried that it would not be enough to stop Dwyen from mobilizing the Northern Legion, after thinking for a while, added in a voice they could hear: "Digren believes that the Empire is worried that we will take the initiative to attack with it, but no one can guarantee that the other side will miss the opportunity of emptiness in the north. Mufat was critically ill and the Empire was in a very delicate state. Dustin stared at Belic. If Belic made a contribution at this time or returned to the capital in disappointment, it would be a peaceful evolution. Only by leaving him on the border and not daring to take action against us for the time being is the most beneficial."

"That is to say, continue Ulysses' plan, just replace Dustin's partner with us... I like this idea. If you destroy Kaisting's main force, the kingdom will have at least a few decades of peace." After hearing the thoughts, Dwyne smiled a little sinisterly. Of course, if he knew that this was part of Lu Chen's plan to help "dead Rossell" seize the throne, he would be very amused. Fortunately, this did not affect his original intention of hoping for peace and stability in the kingdom.
