This is already 50 years ago. At that time, the École de l'Saint Laurent had not yet opened. At that time, Marshal Corneli had just turned twenty years old and was one of the Sun King's attendant knights. At that time, although the young Corneli was a young genius and powerhouse in the imperial capital, he was only born as an ordinary landless nobleman. If nothing major happens, he may be able to become the head of the Emperor's palace guard before he retires, and then retire with the honorary title and pension of an unhereditary sword-wielding baron.

Similarly, the Sun King of the year, Gaius the Great, was 33 years old and had been on the throne for just over 10 years; The 28-year-old Empress Estelle, known as the "Estelle of the Holy Light", finally became pregnant again after the two daughters she gave birth to before died. According to the judgment of the court prophets, this time she was pregnant with a healthy boy. In fact, they were right, the son that the queen later gave birth to, that is, the father of the future world's first princess, Her Royal Highness Crown Prince Dirios.

At that time, the Sun King's attempt to restore the central authority had finally aroused the alarm of many princes and lords. The entire Imperial Capital and Yongchen Palace were plunged into a tense atmosphere, and it felt that as long as he took a slight breath, he could feel the suffocating smell of gunpowder. According to some of the intrigues that circulated in the streets, even the two princesses died in infancy, and they were all poisoned by the princes, who had intended to kill Empress Estelle, the emperor's most important supporter, and the princesses just happened to be scapegoats.

Although Queen Estelle is a descendant of the famous Auckland family, this wealthy family that existed during the Griffon Dynasty had already declined during the previous Warring States period in Auckland. faded out of Auckland's state politics early, and fully transferred most of the family's strength to Neosfia. Invest in the industrial and commercial industry. If we look at Lu Xi, who has a modern view of history, the ancestors of the Ashut family can be said to be quite far-sighted. The traditional territorial aristocracy transformed itself into a new mercantile aristocracy. If the transformation to a pure capital chaebol can be completed in the future, then even in the future "democratic era" when the imperial power is bound to come to an end, even if those kings who stand up to the sky and the earth are turned to dust, and the royal family is forced into a dead end one by one, these families who have completed the gorgeous transformation will still be the well-deserved rulers of this world.

Of course, at that time, the Ashut family, who had abandoned their territory in favor of commerce and had frequent dealings with the maritime merchants of Neosphia. In fact, it is regarded as a typical depravity by the mainstream aristocratic society in Auckland.

However, it was this "degenerate" family, in the generation of Empress Esteel's father, Joshya, that officially became one of the largest and most powerful chaebols in Neosfia, with four large chambers of commerce in its hands alone, and shares in several banks, including the Ocean Vault; Her mother, Miss Eschat, was born into a Jude minority. This is a warrior people who inhabit mainly in the hills of the southern section of Cape Storm. The people all worshipped the goddess of radiance and established a hermit order, the Sword of Glory. Although their teachings of the Radiant Goddess differed from the official texts of the Great Sanctuary, they themselves did not obey the orders of the Great Sanctuary. But on the whole, it is a simple, strong, upright and strong ethnic minority. Miss Aisha is not only the daughter of the patriarch, but also the saint of this "sword of glory".

If you have to understand the relationship between the Great Sanctuary and the Jude "Sword of Glory" Order, it can barely be regarded as the difference between official and officially authorized doujin.

In a word. The marriage of wealth, blood, power, and faith gave birth to the future "Estelle of Light". She herself worshiped the "Platinum Sword Saint" Calblatt and the contemporary High Priest of the Goddess of Radiance. Cardinal Unor, known as the "Sage", studied swordsmanship and divine arts. He became famous at a young age.

She is such a talented woman, beautiful, intelligent, powerful, and heroic. It also has the gentleness, kindness and tolerance that are unique to women.

"Well, it seems that except for the last one, it is indeed similar to you in every aspect." Lu Xi thought about it seriously, and then stared at Karin with an unfilial expression: "It seems that His Majesty Estelle has taught you something...... In addition to character. ”

"People are very gentle, kind, tolerant, and magnanimous, otherwise how could they tolerate your messy things! At least in this respect, I am much more generous than my grandmother! Xiao Luxi, don't be cheap and sell well! ”

As long as a girl raises the issue of the Crystal Palace, even if Lu Xi has the reputation to break through the boundary, there is still no room or way to refute it. He could only sneer, bury his head and continue to be a turtle.

Such a fellow disciple and sister, in the eyes of the disciples of the two strongest contemporary people, is naturally a well-deserved goddess of class flowers. What kind of characters are the disciples under the command of the "Platinum Sword Master" and the "Contemporary Sage"? With Estelle's prestige in the minds of this gang alone, she could summon a team composed entirely of extraordinary powerhouses, and maybe she could kill them back and forth when she ran to the Palace of Eternal Night.

All in all, with a huge amount of wealth and funds, a team of mercenaries under Fortune, and a wide range of connections among the powerful people in the world (this one is honestly suspected of being a green tea), such Estelle, although the world is saying that she and Gaius the Great are known in Weimo, and they are true true love. But what can never be avoided is that from the day she became the queen, she became the biggest supporter of the Sun King, who had no soldiers and no money.

The nobles of Auckland may not dare to harm the legitimate supreme of a holy spring royalty, but secretly assassinating a "woman of the Ashut family" has no psychological shadow at all.

"At that time, the only force that His Majesty the Emperor could control was the Imperial Capital Garrison of less than 20,000 people, the 5,000 Yongchen Palace guards, and the 5,000 new troops personally trained and commanded by His Majesty Estelle."

"The New Army? That was the predecessor of the Central Forbidden Army, right? Karin asked with interest.

"The Central Forbidden Army was indeed established on the basis of this new army. However, at that time, it was far from the atmosphere it is today, not to mention only a few thousand people, and the quality of the soldiers was really unsatisfactory. Most of them were landless peasants who wanted to earn a penny of military pay and have enough to eat. The young sons and concubines of nobles who have no inheritance rights and no property, try to fight a born adventurer and mercenary...... Of course. There may also be some hot-blooded young people who are really attracted by the ideals of the two Majesties. An excellent knight born in a wealthy family is not willing to waste his years in such a unit, so. This unit, which has been given high hopes by the two Majesies, naturally cannot ask for the comments of the rabble. The old marshal smiled calmly and said: "It takes time to strengthen a strong country and a strong army, and at that time, what His Majesty Gayus lacked the most was actually this ......."

No matter what the Sun King does, he is the representative of the supreme imperial power of the empire, and the nobles dare not really lift the table no matter what, so he can also find room for growth in the princes who check and balance each other with his flexible wrists. However, when the Northern Overlord Stemsun, who had unprecedentedly strengthened the fighting power and national power of the Nords. After conquering the Great Wilderness of Orgrimmar and leading an army of nearly a million to the top of Mount Tai to press on Auckland, the young Sun King realized that in the face of absolute power, all political skills and struggle tactics were just children's games.

Auckland was almost divided by then. The princes and lords went their own way, but at least maintained the existence of a supreme emperor. This prosperous ancient civilization has found it difficult to come up with the strength to resist the Nord army, and the danger of the country's demise is imminent. That period. Although his beloved queen conceived a healthy child for herself, this joy did not dilute the sorrow in the Sun King's heart. The Holy Monarch, who later ushered in the glorious era of his reign, was in the midst of the most difficult and painful time of his life.

"In this case, anything that can change the situation. Or to increase the possibility of our chances of winning, Your Majesty will be willing to try, right? The marshal seemed to have entered the memories of that year, and a look of remembrance gradually appeared on his face.

"Later. His Highness Helamis then told His Majesty that Emperor Knous the Great was in the vault of the Eternal Palace. Left behind an army of extraordinary strength, only the patriarch of the Holy Springs royal family and the emperor of Auckland. to be eligible to open. This is a hole card left by the emperor for his children and grandchildren, and it is absolutely not allowed to be opened unless it is absolutely necessary. ”

"His Highness Heramis?" Lu Xi was sure that he had not heard of this name, and it took Karin nearly half a minute to finally remember the name of such a distant relative who was only recorded in the internal records of the palace and the royal family genealogy, and did not even have the qualifications of the official historical materials: "I took it, well, it should be the emperor's grandfather's...... Uncle Cousin? He was awarded the title of Duke of Tulavin. However, he never had any heirs, and after his death, the fief was cut off and placed under the direct control of the central government. ”

"His Royal Highness Heramis is the third Duke of Tulawen, who was already nearly 80 years old at the time, and the oldest member of the royal family at that time." The marshal said: "He serves as the chief of royal ceremonies in the imperial capital, and is in charge of the patriarchal norms of all members of the royal family of Shengquan. It may be that it is in this critical position that His Highness has access to many secret stories. ”

For example, the official position of the head of the royal ceremonies is correct to say that it is a key position, but this must be in the case that the royal family is not a mascot that is vacated by the princes. At that time, it was a pity that Di Marhia was really in such an embarrassing situation. Even the heroes of the Sun King and Queen Estelle took nearly 10 years to pull up a rabble, and the situation of the rest of the Holy Spring's disciples can be imagined. After all, they are just a group of poor urban aristocrats with no money, no power and no territory, and they have no royal name, and the chief of the royal family sounds very lofty, and to put it bluntly, he is just the director of discipline for these people.

Of course, the royal master of ceremonies in this position can enter and leave the inner court at any time and consult all the most secret historical records, which is perhaps his most "important" authority.

"So, the old ancestor said, this is the most critical juncture of the empire, and it is time to show the hole cards left by Cloeus the Great...... And then grandfather believed so? Karin couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and glare, and her voice suddenly became much higher: "So naïve? It really doesn't look like a grandfather I knew. ”

"Your Highness, you must know that when a person is cornered, even if he knows that it is just a straw, even a poisonous straw, he will catch it. His Majesty the Emperor was still very young at that time, and he was far from being as wise and martial as you have seen. The old marshal showed a wry smile: "Actually, at that time, when we, the most trusted followers of His Majesty the Emperor, heard the news, our first reaction was surprise...... Or rather, ecstasy that has lost its mind. Except for His Majesty Estelle and Teacher Elder Pahi, who were more cautious, at that time, no one, including His Majesty the Emperor, had much suspicion. ”

It's so abnormal. Lu Xi and Karin looked at each other, and they both saw the doubts in each other's eyes.

"Sun King" Guy the Great is such a masterpiece, even if he adds the big chess he arranged in his later years, which will damage his wisdom, purely in terms of the merits of cultural governance and martial arts, in the vast history of the entire Auckland for more than 8,000 years, three dynasties and two troubled Warring States eras, he is definitely the top five Men of the world. There is "Estelle of the Holy Light", and Queen Estelle, who is rumored to be the reincarnation of the goddess of light, is what a heroine. Think about her ability to enter and exit the phase, Wen can raise the pen to settle the world, Wu can go to the horse to determine the world, retreat can return to the palace and teach her husband and son to fight Xiaosan by the way, the five latitudes add up to definitely more than 450 terrifying abilities, even if it is 10,000 years later, it can be used to be the ultimate idol of women and the totem of feminists.

Naturally, the first followers of these two masters could not be fuel-efficient lamps, just look at the old Count of Corneli, who has become a marshal. He has now reached the point where he can intimidate the nations by his name alone, but at the beginning, he was only one of the Sun King's brilliant and starry Zhongxing ministers, especially the small characters.

How could such a wise and wise leader, such a gorgeous team, be fooled by some sweet traps that are not in the blue? Could it be that the word Ling Li Zhidu, even among these tens of thousands of people, is useful for dragons and phoenixes?

"For the first time, I have seen the Golem of Belatmeia, already gathering dust, in the deepest part of the royal Neku...... There were only two Majestys, the only ones present at that time, except for me, the Chamberlain of His Majesty, the Lady of the Court, who was known as the court clerk at the time, and Lord Yark, who was still serving as His Majesty's personal adviser...... And, of course, His Royal Highness the Master of Ceremonies, Heramis. The old marshal said: "It is also the first time I have heard that in the treasury of the Holy Spring Royal, there are such magnificently placed tokens of the demon gods, and they have been handed down from the time of Emperor Knoeus the Great. ”

Arupashi and Yark don't talk about it, one is the emperor's teacher, the other is the emperor's friend, and they are both two virtuous ministers in the era of the Sun King, it is estimated that the emperor and his wife trust them the most. However, what is it like for your little trick back then to run over and mess in? Looking at it this way, Karin's grandparents were really open-minded enough. If it were me, I would have found a way to kill you......

"According to His Highness Heramis, the Golem is a key that can open some empty subspace where a large army of Immortals is stationed...... There were tens of thousands of people, all of whom were the souls of ancient heroes of various races who had died in battle from the Age of the Gods. They had a pact with Emperor Knous the Great, and they fought for him and now for his children and grandchildren. And only the direct bloodline of the Great Emperor, the members of the Holy Spring royal family who possess the true red of the Holy Spring, can pass through the spatial passage created by the Golem and enter the subspace to activate this army. ”

"The more I listen, the more suspicious I become......" The voice of Her Royal Highness the World's First Princess sounded a little muffled, as if she was shocked by the actions of these old people back then: "Don't you feel suspicious at all?" If it were me, I'd kill that Heramis right away. ”

Anyway, it's the elder of your three generations, right? What do you want to make trouble by calling it by name? Lu Xi glared at Karin, feeling that this sister paper was simply incurable.

"Actually, that's what His Majesty Estelle thinks, too. As you all know, she was a genius favored by the goddess of radiance, and her sensitivity to evil was far beyond our imagination, and she drew her sword on the spot when she saw the golem, but it was too late......" (To be continued. )
