Black Iron’s Glory

 

Chapter 532 tit-for-tat conversations

 

When Claude’s mouth said that after the First World War, there would be no longer the Stellin royal family, the atmosphere in the tent suddenly calmed down. Prime Minister Blanchard just smiled and watched Claude not speak, and Abrent General looked at Claude and then looked at Prime Minister Blanchard, but couldn’t say anything. As for Claude, he stared closely at Prime Minister Blanchard’s face, watching the change of expression on his face …

 

I don’t know how much time has passed, it seems to be long, it seems to be very short, just when the general of Abbott was made to want to be loudly roared by this depressed atmosphere, Prime Minister Blanchard finally put the empty cup in his hand. On the table: “Another cup …”

 

It was like the balloon was pierced with a needle, and it felt like the light leaked. Prime Minister Blanchard said in this sentence that the tension and depression with swords drawn and bows bent were no longer in the tent. Claude opened the remaining bottle of fruit wine in silence, and slowly poured the orange transparent wine into the empty glass of Prime Minister Blanchard.

 

Prime Minister Blanchard raises his glass and tastes slowly, Claude doesn’t say anything, fills his glass with fruit wine, and puts the remaining half of the bottle of fruit wine in front of Albert General And motioned to him. Albert did not pour the fruit wine into his empty glass, but grabbed the bottle directly and poured it at the mouth of the bottle …

 

This time, Prime Minister Blanchard did not finish the fruit wine, but only looked for Claude after a few sips: “What do you think of the Kingdom of Aueras without the Stellin royal family?”

 

Claude shook the head: “I don’t care about the consequences, even if Kingdom will get worse, it’s not my concern. Because we have all returned to the Overseas Dominion at that time, we can’t care what will happen to Kingdom in the future … “

 

“Actually, these things can be deduced.” Prime Minister Blanchard laughed: “First of all, the army of your Overseas Dominion will become an alien invader because you occupy Royal Capital and lose the Stellin royal family. . Then all the nobility factions of Kingdom will give up the dispute and unite, and call on the Kingdom people to fight against you invaders from the Overseas Dominion, as well as the crime of killing the King couple and the Stellin royal family.

 

You will defeat the Alliance troops, help Kingdom reunify the heroes of the Eastern Region, become a rebellion in the hearts of the Kingdom ’s people, and be the culprit again in bringing Kingdom into the war and foul wind and bloody rain. Even if you can use the powerful battle strength to suppress the riots in the Kingdom, you will not be able to stay in the eastern region for a long time. Because you only have two Legion troops, you can’t control the territory of Kingdom now.

 

The so-called improper name, I can’t imagine what kind of name and excuse you used to rule such a large Kingdom after occupying Royal Capital. With Thunderbolt Legion and Rock Legion, the only thing you can control is the Kingdom of Kingdom, and you have to face ups and downs of the local rebellion. So are you all ready to give up in Kansas Prairie, Eskilin, Rimodera and Xidings? So what’s the point of the second great war victory in the eastern region?

 

We at the Kingdom of Aueras haven’t been given time to regain Kingdom strength since the end of the Great War in the Eastern Region. From the colonial war provoked by Hicks Kingdom to the Kingdom civil war that took place in the battle for the Second King, until now the debt war and the second great war in the eastern region after the majesty of Frederick I Your Majesty, the people of Kingdom have been affected Enough the suffering of war, they are very eager for a peaceful and peaceful life, and no one wants to continue the war.

 

So for your invasion of Royal Capital, King Your Majesty has maintained the greatest kindness and tolerance. He believes that your Overseas Dominion will not destroy this hard-won peace. This is also my appearance as Prime Minister of Kingdom. The reason your army came. If you use a small misunderstanding as an excuse to wage war and undermine the peace in Kingdom, I believe that the people of Kingdom will be disappointed and angry with your Overseas Dominion, and they will spontaneously fight against each other.

 

The current Royal Capital is an undefended city for you. You can rush in, kill, rob, set fire, and commit adultery. Just like the sins that the Alliance Army has done, you can do it again, and let the entire population of Royal Capital fall into the fiery and tragic World again. If this is your wish, then I congratulate you, and you will soon reach your wish. King Your Majesty, Minister Royal Court, including me, and the people of Royal Capital, let you do whatever you want … “

 

“Uh …” General Abrond jumped directly from his chair: “Prime Prime Minister, our Thunderbolt Legion is not an enemy of Kingdom, please don’t describe us as that Alliance Army, our Soldier of Thunderbolt Legion We will never do anything against the people of Royal Capital. We are soldiers of the Overseas Dominion, not criminals … “

 

Claude shook his head and grinned, mourning for the poor political intelligence of General Albert. Couldn’t he hear that this was the intimidation of Prime Minister Blanchard, and responded exactly to what Claude said after World War I, and there was no more threat from the Stellin royal family.

 

“Since Royal Capital is an undefended city, I believe that we will not encounter resistance when we enter the city tomorrow. This is a good thing. I believe we can quickly complete our task and escort our members of the Overseas Dominion and Jin The officer’s representative, and the huge capital of 30 million kronor embarked on the return journey. “Claude watched Prime Minister Blanchard raise a toast:

 

“If our parliamentarians and representatives of Jinjue officers have not suffered any personal injury, and the capital of 30 million kronor is not bad, then I believe the misunderstanding that king Your Majesty said in the letter must be true. Queen Your Majesty also transferred the funds and funds to the imperial palace for the personal safety of us parliamentarians and military officers. It is understandable that a small error occurred during the period. Do you mean it, my dear Prime Minister ? “

 

This time, the smile of Prime Minister Blanchard suddenly became bitter. He dodged Claude’s gaze, lifted the glass and swallowed the fruit wine. Then he said with a reluctant smile: In fact, the guards of the Imperial Palace sent to help that night were really in a hurry that night. They were anxious to complete the order of His Majesty, not at all, explained to your people clearly, and even a little happened with your parliamentarians and military officers. A few people were injured in a skirmish, but I guarantee that they are not in any danger to their lives … “

 

Claude coldly snorted, put the wine glass on the table: “Let’s be honest about what happened that night. As for any excuses, we all know it well and need not mention it. All I want to know is that we How many people are injured, how many are safe and sound, and how many are still in prison by you.

 

You can not say now, but tomorrow we will find out the truth of the matter soon after we enter the city. Do n’t blame us for revenge without saying hello to you. Because first of all you deceived us and concealed the truth … “

 

“Mr. Marshal, we at Freia Continent have a saying saying that you can’t make a guilty conscience, I believe you have heard this sentence.” Prime Minister Blanchard said sincerely:

 

“The meaning of this sentence is not to say that as a courtier, you cannot blame the king for his fault. It is to say that after a king has made a mistake, as a courtier, he is not to blame the king for making such a mistake. It is the responsibility of the courtier to actively deal with this wrong situation and to minimize and eliminate the serious consequences of this mistake made by the king.

 

You and I understand the cause of this time, what King Your Majesty said in the letter was indeed an excuse, but he was also helpless. After all, it was the queen Your Majesty, his wife, Prince’s Mother, who is now pregnant and cannot be greatly stimulated.

 

So even if she makes such a big mistake, King Your Majesty can only endure her anger and clean up her head and tail. Just like ordinary families, conflicts and quarrels sometimes occur between husbands and wives, but this time things have become a lot bigger …

 

I know that your Overseas Dominion is very dissatisfied with Your Majesty ’s refusal to give you discounts and offers, but what you do n’t understand is that it ’s not Your Majesty and my Prime Minister who do n’t give discounts and offers. But we have no choice.

 

Do you know how much Kingdom nobility has firmly opposed her family dominion after receiving hereditary clan territory? For Your Majesty and my Prime Minister, the pressure is really great. It was so difficult that you did not give you discounts and concessions to make your Overseas Dominion also eligible for a seal order.

 

In a way, the benefit of the granting order to Your Majesty and the treasury is really great, so much that many Kingdom nobility Aristocratic Family are jealous. After we finally repaid the huge military expenses owed over the years and the money borrowed from the nobility Aristocratic Family, there is not much money left in the treasury.

 

This is for the new Kingdom which has been abolished, and is unable to support the implementation of my Kingdom economic revival plan, so we can only put our minds on the wealthy Overseas Dominion, and hope to receive the Jinjue fee from you And land selection fees can solve this funding problem.

 

Frankly, this is the best time for Kingdom revival. Your Majesty used the gift order to lift the old Nobility Aristocratic Family power of Kingdom to the Kingdom’s economic, political and military constraints.

 

A large number of veterans of the old nobility Aristocratic Family forces in the army were cleared, and they truly controlled the direct jurisdiction of the three major Legions: Red Dragon, Griffon, and Guard. There is no need to worry about mutiny and so on chaos. The only thing lacking is the huge amount of money to implement the Kingdom’s economic revival scheme.

 

But what we didn’t expect was that your MPs and officer representatives of the Overseas Dominion thought this was very unfair, refused to accept the hereditary clan territories, and placed the huge 30 million kronor funds in imperial The small square in front of the palace sensationalized the entire Royal Capital.

 

Although your Majesty and I, the Prime Minister, are jealous of your huge sum of money, they never have the idea of ​​using this money. Only the queen Your Majesty was annoyed at the impoliteness of your four representatives at the Royal Court Imperial Court Great Assembly, and wanted to resolve the distress and lack of funds of Your Majesty, so she sent her imperial palace guard to your Royal Capital. Office, made a mistake … “

 

“You shut up 1” Claude raised his hand to stop the Albert General who was about to speak. This guy was almost taken in by the Prime Minister’s full-hearted words. Claude was very afraid of his brain. Hot shot chest promises something …

 

Watching Albert General closed his mouth full of grievances, Claude turned his head and looked towards Prime Minister Blanchard, his eyes slowly sharpened: “Master, as a soldier of the Overseas Dominion, What I want to know is how much error did our esteemed queen Your Majesty make that night, and how much harm did the Imperial Palace guards she sent to our autonomous parliamentarians and officers represent?

 

I do n’t want to know how wise the King Your Majesty lost his hair for the Revival kingdom economy, and I do n’t want to know how the 30 million gold crowns brought by our dominion are helpful and significant for Kingdom. In my opinion, things are actually very simple, as our President Henderman said on the Royal Court Imperial Court Great Assembly, this is actually a transaction. Now that prices are inconclusive, the deal is naturally untenable.

 

If it is a general commercial transaction, one party offers too much and the other counteroffers too low. If the two parties ca n’t reach an agreement, they can only slap. This is a normal situation. If you like it, no one can blame anyone. . It’s just our Overseas Dominion. The object of this transaction is king Your Majesty. In the case that we can’t counter-offer, we think the bid is too high and we can only give up this transaction. In order to show our sincerity, we have specially shown you the funds we carried.

 

What we didn’t expect was that you actually met Caiyi, arrested our MPs and representatives of Jinjue officers, snatched the huge sum of 30 million kronor we took, and sealed us Overseas The Dominion is based in the Royal Capital office. Is this something a king and queen can do? If our Dominion does not have a strong military force, I believe that our people will succumb to death in the cell, and you will enjoy our funds with peace of mind …

 

Lord Prime Minister, you just told us a lot of heartfelt words, it sounds like we should forgive your faults, understand your difficulties, and understand your helplessness. But after speaking for a long time, you still haven’t answered the question we are most concerned about. Let’s talk to the point about the resolution of this incident. How do you want to solve this problem?

 

The first thing we want to know is the situation of our people, whether they are dead or alive. The Prime Minister must give us an account of the Overseas Dominion. Secondly, the wealth belonging to us must be returned by a lot of penny, because that is the wealth belonging to the dominion. Third, we want to know if the queen Your Majesty who did the wrong thing will be punished, and what kind of punishment. Finally, does King Your Majesty have a compensation plan for us? “

 

The smile of Prime Minister Blanchard is about to hang on his face, Claude ignores his words at all, only referring to the words of the core issues makes him feel very uncomfortable. But he couldn’t help it. Now that he was ready to come to meet him, he couldn’t avoid these most critical issues in the end …

 

“I’m sorry …” Prime Minister Blanchard lowered his head with thick brown hair: “The imperial palace guard was ordered to go to your Royal Capital office that day. There was a small conflict between your parliamentarians and representatives of Jinjue officers. Both sides used weapons, but fortunately, they were stopped quickly without causing major casualties.

 

Fortunately, only 47 of your MPs and Jinjue officer representatives have been injured. They have received the best treatment and no life threatening. The original staff of that office and a large group of guard soldiers did not participate in the conflict because they were stopped by Bolognik Marshal. They were only disarmed and are now under house arrest in the barracks … “

 

Claude’s mouth slowly twitched upwards, showing a mocking smile: “I don’t understand, Prime Minister, our parliamentarians and officers representatives were injured in the conflict or arrested for severe punishment. Wounded by torture? We went to nearly a hundred delegates, and we were almost half injured. How could this not be the same as the small conflict you claimed?

 

If wounded in the conflict, even Bolognik Marshal will not be able to stop the counterattack of the guards, otherwise they will be negligent and subject to military law. Only if they are unable to resist after being arrested, will so many members of Parliament and Jinjue ’s officers be injured, and the guards will be helpless … ”

 

“This is mainly because your parliamentarians and officer representatives were arrested and offended by the words of King Your Majesty and Queen Your Majesty, which led to the imperial palace guards giving them some physical anger. Punishment, which caused the injuries of many people … “Prime Minister Blanchard explained in a daunting manner …

 

“hehe …” Claude sneered: “If we didn’t send a post from the Eagle Eagle, telling you that without me and Allen and Bick’s signature, no one would have the right to use the 30 million With respect to King Krona ’s huge funds, I believe that there have been more than sixty of hereditary nobility of our Overseas Dominion, which has just been used as their promotion fee and land selection fee, and has fallen into your pocket. Isn’t it? “

 

“No …” Prime Minister Blanchard reluctantly argued: “We do need your huge sums of money to implement the Revival kingdom economic plan, but Your Majesty and I, the Prime Minister, will not use your dominion without permission. The money Your Majesty has made a mistake, but Your Majesty is trying to eliminate the impact of this error.

 

We don’t want war because of this small mistake, so we ruin the Kingdom revival. Even if money is needed, we can borrow it from you, or borrow it from you, without using deception to get your money … “

 

“So how do you punish the queen Your Majesty for making this mistake?” Claude asked again.

 

Prime Minister Blanchard opened his mouth, and finally bowed his head in vain: “You know, Claude Marshal, Queen Your Majesty is pregnant. This is her second child with king Your Majesty , So we ca n’t blame or punish her … “
