house fighting in another world

Before Queen Udulla arrived at the council hall, His Majesty the Emperor had issued several new decisions, one of which was to give Ryan part of the military power that was taken back from Duke Sweet last night, and let him lead the The guards of the imperial capital have strengthened the defense of the imperial capital; the second is to order people to thoroughly investigate the whole story of Ryan’s attack last night, and we must find out the culprit; this third item is a bit intriguing. Everyone's heart tightened, because His Majesty the Emperor asked all the nobles in the imperial capital to hand over the organization system of their own guards.

Everyone felt like a bright mirror in their hearts. It seemed that His Majesty the Emperor was going to take advantage of what happened last night to make some moves.

His Majesty the Emperor didn't give anyone a chance to refute. After giving the order, he claimed that he was tired, and waved his hands to make people withdraw. Such an obvious evasion move made the nobles who had just raised their hearts secretly relieved. His Majesty the Emperor is still the same , The resolute action from last night to just now may have been prompted by someone, or not necessarily. As he spoke, everyone's eyes glanced at the indifferent Earl Angus intentionally or unintentionally. In the entire imperial capital, only the Ashfield family has the smallest number of guards, but everyone there is an elite!The magicians are all high-level, the knights are also the bottom of the seventh rank, and even the grooms are sixth-rank knights. Looking at the entire empire, no one has such a team!

However, the nobles are easy to dismiss, but Queen Udulla is not so easy. She almost seized the time to block the way of His Majesty. Although she had a gentle and soft smile on her face, her eyes were sharp and compelling: "Your Majesty, Where were you last night?"

The emperor didn't seem to mind the queen's questioning tone as soon as she came up, walked over and naturally hugged the queen's shoulders, with a tone of hatred for iron and steel: "Don't mention it, it's too shameful, the dignified duke and viscount Just because of a woman, do you still think this is the imperial capital? Do they still see me as the emperor?"

A trace of disdain flashed in the queen's eyes, she raised her hand and patted the emperor's chest lightly: "Your Majesty calm down, such a person who doesn't know how to advance or retreat should be sent far away, don't get angry."

The emperor nodded: "I have already driven Casper back to his fief. As for Sweet, after all, his status as a duke is there. His son is really unbelievable. With his status, what do you want? Are there any women? You have to climb other people's walls! I've seen that woman before, and she's not very good."

The queen snorted: "Aren't all you men like this, what you can't get is the best, and if you get it, it's not rare!"

The emperor was taken aback for a moment, as if he hadn't expected that the matter would turn to himself again, so he laughed apologetically and didn't say a word.

Seeing him like this, the queen finally asked what she wanted to ask since the first meeting, her tone was still very bad: "Then why did you run to Angus' house last night?"

The emperor coaxed with a good temper: "Aren't you in a bad mood because you didn't find Amyla? I wanted to try to see if I could get that fantasy beast from Sawyer, but that little guy refused to go with me!"

"Just for this? You, an emperor, stayed overnight in the mansion of a minister. If it spreads, how many guesses should there be?" I am being held in the palm of my hand and protected by someone, even if the person I am protecting is not my true love, even the queen is no exception.

The emperor smiled and said: "Then let them guess, dear, I'm sleepy, you can sleep with me for a while."

The empress flirted with the emperor for a while, and then half pushed and half laid down with him. It wasn't until she fell into a dream that she remembered that she seemed to have something that she forgot to ask. What was it?

When she woke up from a nap, the emperor was no longer around her. The queen also learned from the maid about the emperor's decision in the morning, she blushed immediately, and waved all the items on the vanity mirror to the ground Oh, why did she just forget to ask, what the emperor plans to do with the military power taken back from Sweet!This is good, it's all cheap for that illegitimate child who doesn't know how to flatter!The emperor really wasted that crown in vain for his foolishness!

The Queen squeezed the ivory comb tightly in her hand, gritted her teeth, and her bright eyes were about to burst into flames. Angus, Angus, it's in vain for you to look cold and arrogant, but you have learned to hide it behind your back. To curry favor with the emperor!

"Send a post to let Lisa Manda enter the palace."

……

In view of the fact that Ryan was attacked and injured, the emperor granted him a few days of vacation, and he didn't go to the palace early this morning, so he listened to the old housekeeper with Sawyer in the bedroom about his being banned. Regarding this, He just raised his eyebrows without expressing anything in particular.Sawyer pinched Qiuqiu's tender face: "Didn't you say that military power is a very sensitive thing? You actually handed over all the guards of the imperial capital to you. It seems that there has been a good show recently, and you can also take advantage of the opportunity to fish in troubled waters. "

Ryan shook his head: "That's not necessarily the case. The situation in the imperial capital is unclear now, and there are still many hands waiting to grab people's pigtails under the muddy water. It's better to wait and see what happens for the time being."

Sawyer is really not proficient in this kind of manipulation of power. In comparison, he is better at confrontation on the bright side. It is his specialty to make people feel disadvantaged by keeping a low profile. Right now, I feel that what Ryan said is also reasonable : "That's fine, you can cultivate at home for a few days, and I'll teach you some ways to deal with the demons."

Ryan responded with a smile. For some reason, he is not in a hurry to take revenge now. Maybe it was a success last night, and he also reaped unexpected results. The hatred buried in his heart for a long time had a short-term vent. As for the last move he had planned, he temporarily suppressed it; perhaps it was because he originally had the idea of ​​dying together and planned to leave the imperial capital after seriously injuring the Will family, but now he has changed because of the differences in the people around him.All in all, Ryan now has a somewhat optimistic attitude: "I heard that many people have come these two days?"

"Yeah, it's almost time for the family meeting, but it seems that this year's meeting is very positive."

Ryan said casually: "Maybe something will happen, my people seem to see Lisa Manda getting very close to them."

Sawyer nodded: "After you left yesterday, she brought the first group of people in. It seems that she really considers herself the hostess. It's a pity that she doesn't understand how the dignified countess would go out of the city to welcome the branch in person. family?"

"Do you need me to find out some news for you?"

Sawyer was surprised: "You can even get this out?"

Ryan chuckled: "You can guess a thing or two with just a few words."

"It's no fun to know too well in advance."

Qiuqiu, who had been ignored by the two adults for a long time, finally got tired of playing with the emerald in his hand, threw it into his little treasure house, stretched out his small arms and acted like a baby to Sawyer: "Dear~~~"

Ryan stretched out his arms without hesitation, and brought the little guy to his face: "Baby, as a man, you can't know that you want to kiss all day long."

Unexpectedly, Qiuqiu didn't show any face at all, frowning and kicking his little arms and legs, he wanted to break free from Ryan, and kept asking Sawyer for help.

Sawyer looked at Qiuqiu's small arms and legs, and suddenly became interested: "Come on, continue to learn to walk."

Ryan didn't let go: "Qiuqiu can't even crawl, how can he learn to walk?"

Our fairy was stunned. He really didn't know that he had to learn to crawl first before he could learn to walk. You must know that all the babies in the Tiangong can walk bumpy.

As a result, the poor little guy was cheated by unscrupulous parents again. The benefits of learning to walk in the past are gone. Little Jinqiu, after being teased all afternoon, the little guy was completely indignant, crying so loudly that even Angus, who was discussing business matters with the stewards in the study, was startled, and came to ask in person, but was caught by Qiuqiu. Pounced right on, holding the soft little guy with frankincense, waiting for him to fall asleep before putting it down, the poor Qiuqiu has been reduced to the point where he can only look for it from Angus, who has a similar appearance to Sawyer. Comforted.

……

In the following days, a low air pressure enveloped the imperial capital

It was empty, and the endless banquets in the past also died down one after another. Everyone was watching, hoping to see whether the emperor's previous actions were just a whim, or whether there were other deep meanings.After Ryan rested at home for a week, he changed into a brand-new official uniform and took office. His Majesty the Emperor personally received him alone. No one knew what he said in this interview with the Emperor. They only knew that a few days later, the Emperor Suddenly ordered each family to draw a certain number of people from their own guards to let Ryan conduct a unified drill. After this order, everyone was in an uproar. Immediately, several big families entered the palace, but they were finally dismissed by the emperor in a few words. His Majesty's idea is very simple. Ryan was honed from the battlefield, and it would be a good thing for everyone to let him practice those guards well!

The emperor said so, so naturally everyone could only listen to it. Everyone was at a loss, unable to figure out what was going on, and this suspicion gradually dissipated after Ryan trained for a few days , it seemed that it was really just drills, and taught some skills when facing the enemy. Later, the heads of the families waved their hands and allocated the rest of the guards to train. Magic skills are unheard of, but it does improve the actual combat ability, so why not do it?

……

As one carriage after another drove in, Angus' Earl's Mansion was almost full, and the half-yearly regular meeting came.Due to the large number of people from the collateral branches from all over the country, at their joint request, this regular meeting was held three days in advance, and it was surprisingly grand. They have all participated, and Sawyer will naturally go.

The conference table is rectangular, and Angus sits at the very center of the seat. There is an empty seat next to him. On both sides are several elderly elders of the family. On both sides of the conference table are Angus' brothers, cousins Brothers and cousins ​​are seated according to distance, while the other younger generations are obediently standing behind their elders and are not eligible to be seated.Relying on his status as the eldest son of the direct line, Sawyer has a place at the corner of the table.

Lisa Manda looked at the closed door with cloudy eyes. In fact, without Sawyer's reminder, the family meeting twice a year was enough to make her realize that she was not the real mistress of the Ashfield family. She doesn't even have the qualifications to go in and listen!However, she will soon be able to change this embarrassing fact.

After everyone sat down, Angus glanced around coldly, and said indifferently: "Everyone is here, if you have anything to say, you can mention it now."

There was a moment of silence in the room, and after a long time, an elder coughed heavily and said slowly: "Before this regular meeting, I would like to say that a family not only needs an excellent patriarch, but also a virtuous patriarch's wife." .”

As soon as this remark came out, there was a slight commotion in the room, and Angus's usually calm eyes also had some emotional fluctuations. Sawyer turned his head and looked at the empty space beside Angus, with a very shallow trace of a trace of the corner of his lips. smile.

That's it!
