These big shots are actually me - #160 - Chapter 160
Even if that guy Snow is crazy, why does the Duke of the South follow suit?
Without the help of the Grand Duke of the South, Snow, a prince with no foundation, would never be able to do this.
But immediately, Mozo thought of the only explanation – what third-party force was pushing this? !
But who would encourage Snow to attack the Douglas family at this time? What do they want?
With this doubt, Mozo, who bid farewell to Laura Lisi, took Erdalan and the others and quickly returned to the North in an airship.
Looking at the White Castle that he had been away from for a long time, Mozo sighed with emotion for a while and then got on the carriage that came to greet him.
Because Mozo requested to keep a low profile and not alarm everyone, Gawain just sent a carriage from the city hall to pick up Mozo.
However, in the carriage, Verdani was already waiting for her. When she saw Mozo who pushed the door open first, Verdani’s eyes lit up.
But he quickly suppressed the excitement in his heart, and instead bowed his head respectfully and said:
“Welcome home, young master.”
“Long time no see, Verdani!”
Hearing this, Mozo stretched out his hand and touched the top of Verdani’s head with a smile. Today, Verdani was not wearing the usual armor. Instead, she had changed into a noble traveling outfit and had a sword at her waist. The Storm Spear given to her by Mozo.
Naturally, Audrey entered after Mozo. The two girls hugged each other excitedly as soon as they met.
Audrey’s disappearance this time has worried Verdani for a long time. And after many twists and turns, he was finally rescued, only to turn around and disappear again.
Fortunately, the last news came that Audrey had arrived safely at Mozzo’s side, otherwise Verdani wouldn’t know how long she would have to worry about.
But what makes Verdani extremely surprised is that there is someone behind Audrey? !
Looking at the beautiful elf who came in at the end, Verdani was completely confused.
“Young Master? Who is this?!”
Mozuo also said strangely:
“Don’t you know? This elf lady is Erdalan, my new guardian knight.”
Mozo remembered that he had informed Gawain about the existence of Eldaran. Why doesn’t Verdani know?
“Why?!”
Verdani was also stunned, she really didn’t know about this.
But then Verdani suddenly said:
“Ah, I was in Winterfell a few days ago. The servant at home said that Grandpa Gawain did send a letter. But I came here as soon as I came to White Castle. I guess that’s how I missed the news.”
Mo Zuo also suddenly smiled and said:
“So that’s it, then it’s not too late to get to know him now.”
Verdani let go of Audrey and then stretched out her hand to Miss Elf and smiled:
“I am Verdani Grace, the young master’s blood pact knight. We will be colleagues from now on, respected elf lady.”
Erdalan did not answer immediately, but was a little surprised and directly took Verdani’s hand and said:
“Are you a blood pact knight? But I didn’t see the blood pact wound?! Have you healed it?”
This situation made Verdani a little unsure of how to react, but she still said a little uncomfortably:
“Yes, young master thinks it is better not to leave any trace.”
Erdalan nodded and said:
“I see, well, it is indeed a pity to have scars on my beautiful hands. Good choice, Miss Verdani. Ah, I am Eldaran Starry Sky, Lord Mozo’s guardian knight.”
The blood pact knight who completely dedicated himself has obviously won a lot of favor here in Eldaland. At least Erdalan is more pleasing to the eye than Verdani than Audrey.
“Hello, Miss Starry Sky, but why did the elf become the young master’s knight?”
Elves are known to be xenophobic.
Miss Elf shook her head and smiled:
“We can talk about this later, but can you tell Lord Mozo about Heather? The actions of the Heather people seem to be very wrong.”
Speaking of this, Verdani immediately knelt down on one knee and said seriously to Mozo:
“Young Master, it is the Duze Dynasty that supports Heather’s southern invasion of the Douglas family! And this seems to come directly from the instructions of the Lord of Light!”
“Please decide whether we want to interfere with the king’s will?!”
219 Disobedience to the king’s will! (3k)
The Lord of Light? !
After hearing that Heather’s southern invasion of Douglas’s house was ordered by the Lord of Light, the atmosphere in the carriage suddenly became more solemn.
Even Mo Zuo frowned slightly.
As the last dynasty, the Duze Dynasty has great influence in this world.
And now this comes directly from the instructions of the King of Light.
Things are in trouble!
Audrey asked nervously:
“Has it been confirmed that it was the King of Light’s instruction? Could it be just the decision of the Duze nobles themselves?”
The presence of another country in a war usually means that it is the instruction of the supreme ruler of that country, but the dynasty is different.
The dynasty is the country of the kings. To the dynasty, the rest of the countries, even the empire, are just rural areas. Therefore, intervening in the internal affairs and even military affairs of rural areas may only be the decision of the dynasty nobles themselves.
Verdani shook her head regretfully and said:
“It’s impossible, because our spies have determined that the Duze Dynasty has provided a huge amount of military supplies to the southern part of Heather at a cost. Such an amount of arms output can only be authorized by the King of Light himself!”
“Otherwise, it would be disrespectful and rebellious to the Lord of Light!”
Such an answer made Audrey’s head growl.
The king’s will cannot be disobeyed. This is not an iron rule, but few people dare to refute it.
After all, kings and gods are bound!
Once the king ends, it means that the god behind the king may follow at any time.
Mozo didn’t speak immediately because he was thinking about what benefits the Lord of Light could gain by doing this.
There is also a Saragan between the Duze Dynasty and Heather. Why did the Lord of Light come so far to interfere in Heather’s internal affairs?
And it’s not just a simple political interference, he directly allocates armaments and invests heavily!
What did that guy Jon Snow promise to the Lord of Light? No, no, the King of Light doesn’t look down on the poor man’s melons and dates. In the past, Heather could still use the Scary Box as a bargaining chip.
But now they can’t come up with anything good, at least nothing that the King of Light would be interested in and invest heavily in.
So what’s the point of this action?
If the southern part of Heather invades the Douglas family, we in the north and Lorraine will most likely send troops to invade Heather. In this case, it may trigger a war between the two empires and weaken both empires.
But the King of Light is so obviously supporting the Hesse people. With the attitude of mortals towards the King, under normal circumstances, the North and Loland would probably just stand still.
So what is the King of Light planning?
Because he couldn’t understand what the Lord of Light was thinking, Mozo fell into deep thought.
He is not afraid of the King of Light and the Goddess of Fertility, but starting a war is not something that can be decided arbitrarily without fear of two words.
So Mozo needs more thinking and intelligence.
–
In the top garden of the White Castle, Gawain was looking thoughtfully at the information in his hand.
Because he and the old duke teamed up to hide the death of the queen, the young wolf master, so only one of the three queens could maintain the mental strength to govern normally not long ago.
And Queen Yongye locked herself directly into the deep palace. Queen Dawn’s words appeared once or twice from time to time, but as time went by, not only did she not return to the previous attendance rate, but she became more and more deep in the palace. .
Even in the past few days, the Queen of Day rarely appeared in front of the ministers.
The old Duke has already written to ask him whether he should tell the truth to His Majesty.
Otherwise, the old Duke is worried that if time goes on, there will be big trouble, and recently there has been such a big thing in the south of Heather.
After Gawain sighed, he could only write down the details of the young master’s survival. He also said that he and others had been hiding it until now because they were worried that His Majesty the Emperor, as the foundation of the country, would be discovered by enemy spies due to inadvertent mistakes.
After reading it roughly, Gawain sent it out.
By the way, I also took out the instructions sent by Her Majesty the Queen not long ago regarding the Douglas family.
But before Gawain could open it, he heard the knight outside the door say:
“Lord Gawain, the guest is back.”
Guest, but the used one came back, so Gawain knew what it referred to as soon as he heard it.
Gawain also immediately walked out of the study with Her Majesty the Queen’s decree.
Then, in a room not far from the study, I saw Mozzo and Audrey who were finally going home.
As soon as the two parties met, Mo Zuo asked Gawain:
“What does Her Majesty think of the southern part of Heather?”
Gawain directly handed Her Majesty the Queen’s government order to Mo Zuo without any nonsense:
“Young Master, this is just your Majesty’s order. I haven’t even read it yet.”
After Mozo opened the wax seal, he saw the handwriting of Her Majesty the Queen.
After reading it roughly once, Mo Zuo couldn’t help but read it again.
This made Gawain confused and said:
“Is there anything wrong with His Majesty’s instructions?”
Mozo shook his head and said:
“No, Her Majesty the Queen means that since the King of Light’s intention is not yet obvious, and the Duze Dynasty is not directly sending troops, let us attack the southern part of Heather according to the existing policy to relieve the pressure on the Duke of Douglas.”
“And His Majesty also said that she will send the royal regiment and the old Duke to help. Even the Royal Knights will be dispatched together.”
A bit radical, but really nothing to blame. It is in Lorraine’s interest that the Heather Empire falls into a state of fragmentation. For this reason, it is an acceptable price to face the Duze Dynasty, which did not end head-on!
Moreover, the Royal Knights and the old Duke were dispatched, which also showed that Her Majesty the Queen was determined to fight and would not hesitate again and again when facing the King.
Gawain nodded and asked again:
“Then you disagree with Her Majesty the Queen’s instructions? Or do you have other ideas?”
Mozo shook his head and said:
“No, I agree with His Majesty. However, I always feel that there is something wrong with this autograph.”
After saying that, Mozuo said to Gawain:
“Gao Wenqing, come and take a look, do you think anything is wrong?”
Gawain took it over doubtfully and looked at it carefully.
Gawain said:
“It is indeed His Majesty’s handwriting, and there is no code or metaphor. Young Master, maybe you are overly concerned?”
Mozo nodded and then shook his head.
Immediately, Mozo’s eyes lit up and he asked Erdalan:
“Eldaran, do you have any leaves from the Double Sacred Tree? If so, give me one!”
Erdalan immediately took out a leaf from the Double Sacred Tree from behind.
After Mozo took it, he ground it up and applied it evenly on the Queen’s government order.
Not long after, the words on the government order revealed its true nature—the handwriting of Queen Isabelle.
Seeing this, Mo Zuo nodded immediately and said:
“Okay, it seems like I really overthought it.”
“Gao Wenqing, gather our troops.”
