The streets of Ashtiton are bustling with people. As the capital of the Yakee country, the dense population is an inevitable consequence, but Ashtiton does not usually have such a large number of people. The reason for this crowding was the tragic death of His Majesty's third prince and the lavish funeral of King Qadir III, which caused the streets of Ashtiton to be restricted to traffic, forcing the already dense crowds of people to squeeze into the narrow alleys, creating the current situation.

In a small hotel at the corner of the alley, a figure quietly watched the bustling crowd and leisurely poured the wine into his mouth. Although this man is not particularly tall but very strong, the bare parts of his limbs can clearly see the muscles, a short silver-gray hair and a beautiful mustache with a pair of bright amber eyes in the middle, in terms of appearance, it is quite handsome, but there is a chilling chill all over the body.

This man is really famous in the country of Yaqi, and he is Viscount Libera. As one of the few low-born generals in the court of the Yakee Kingdom, Viscount Libera can definitely be called an outlier.

The reason why this seven-year-old man, who is now Chinese New Year's Eve, was able to obtain the title of viscount was entirely due to his unparalleled martial bravery and practical ability to command battles. Since the day he participated in the war, Libera has made his successive commanders have a lot of blood, because Libera has never been a person who obediently obeys orders, as long as the commander's judgment and command are wrong, Libera will not hesitate to jump out and point out his shortcomings, and each time the result is that the commander is so angry that his face is red and his neck is thick. Although almost every time Libera's opinion was rejected by the prefect, as long as Libera was there. He will use his martial prowess to turn the tide. One of his mantras was, "Even though you're a shitty chief, as long as I'm here, you can turn things around with your bravery!" You have to remember, though. The reason why our army has suffered such huge casualties is entirely due to your mistakes! ”

The chiefs who heard this were all so angry that their mouths were crooked. However, Libera made unshakable achievements in front of everyone, so Libera's status continued to rise, and he also became the least popular among his colleagues. Because today's colleague may be his commander yesterday, and he is likely to be your commander tomorrow, but Libera is very popular with the soldiers, because it turns out that following Libera has the highest chance of surviving, and there is nothing more reassuring for them as soldiers.

As Libera looked up, his light finally entered the eyes of King Kadir, a capable young general who did not belong to any one faction and was the important pawn that Kadir wanted to hold in his hands. So Libera received the title of viscount at a young age. He has become a legend in Yaqi's country. Kerbera did not change his temper because of this, except for a few famous generals he approved, he was ignorant of everyone, even the prime minister Usubu and the royal brother Aiyuka, he did not buy it, and his approach made Kadir more satisfied.

Of course, Libera's maverick behavior has led to his failure to play in the last few major wars, because the prime minister Usubu is afraid that he will accumulate greater merit by letting him go to war again, and when Libera's power expands, he will threaten his own authority and deliberately hide him.

In this way, Libera, who had nothing to do, hung out in Echtiton every day. He knew better than anyone about the suffering of the people of Ashtidon and the rumors of the people, so much so that the commoners and slaves were surprised to see him walk through the streets.

"What a misfortune for the royal family," Libera whispered to herself, "Now that there is only one direct heir left, it seems that the future of the Yakee Kingdom is really not optimistic." ”

Libera drank the last glass of wine. He threw down a silver coin and strode out of the tavern.

As Libera pondered how to spend the rest of the day, a strangely dressed figure caught Libera's attention. At first glance, this man is from a noble family. Because the way he walked and his temperament showed this, but this man deliberately wore a commoner's shabby clothes. This extremely incongruous scene is in Libera's eyes like a poor performance by a crappy actor. In general, this situation may be that the children of a noble family are trying to escape from the shackles of the family without permission, or for the sake of a certain folk woman. This was not uncommon, and Libera didn't want to be a snitch, so he turned and walked in the other direction.

But this strange thing followed. Within a few steps, Libera had already heard this person's purpose, and this person's martial arts were not weak! Libera immediately became alert, reached out to confirm the position of the dagger at his waist, and then paced slowly, as long as he was on guard, Libera was confident that even if the other party had a few more people, he would not be able to help himself.

"Lord Viscount, the villain is His Majesty's personal follower Hader, this is polite." The deep voice behind him stopped Libera's impending desire to fight. The other party was obviously alert, and revealed his identity in time before entering the range of Libera's attack, avoiding his own disaster.

Since the other party had already shown that there was no malicious intent, Libera asked as she walked, "What do you want to do secretly?" Still dressed so strangely. ”

"Back to Lord Viscount, Your Majesty has a secret decree to ask Lord Viscount to enter the palace with the villain."

"Oh? What's wrong? ”

"Yes. The situation is urgent, so please come with the adult. ”

Libera knew that something big must have happened to the king in this way, and she didn't want her courtiers to know. As far as Libera was concerned, Kadir was a wise man who knew him, and he had to listen to him, so he nodded and followed Hader.

Entering the palace, before seeing Kadir's face, Hader told Libera the general situation. Therefore, after meeting the king, Kadir directly explained the purpose of inviting Libera here: "This time the thief army unexpectedly appeared in the rear of our army, captured the city of Epsommiton, and cut off the food route of our army, and half of our army is still north of the Epsmilton area, so our army urgently needs a new commander to lead the army to retake the Epsmilton area and reopen the grain route." Among the Yaki generals, there is no one more suitable for this position than Qing. ”

After listening to Kadir's words, Libera couldn't help but sneer in her heart. The situation is of course very urgent, and he is indeed one of the competent candidates, but Kadir has secretly brought himself in to discuss the matter, which is clearly aimed at Prime Minister Usubu and Minister of War Andrasiu. No matter which of the two factions of the generals is appointed to lead the troops, it will not help Kadir in the end, it will only increase the strength of the two factions. It seems that Qadir III has finally made up his mind not to use the power struggle between Usubu and Andrasius as a counterweight, but to set out to regain power in his own hands. This may be a good thing for Yaqui, but unfortunately he will inevitably be the vanguard that Kadir uses to upset this balance. It seems that his leisurely days are coming to an end, and he will be forced to get involved in a bloody political struggle.

Thinking of this, Libera lowered her head and said, "Your Majesty has sent something, and Libera is duty-bound." However, how should Your Majesty overcome public opinion and make Zai Xia the new commander-in-chief? (To be continued......)
