Chapter 814, The Queen of the Empire Arrives
"About the five hundred apprentices of Nuer, have they all decided to come back to Brittania?" Ryan took Suria's hand and said softly: "I heard that Emilia said this , but I haven't seen the news."
"If there is, I must have told you a long time ago." Suria smiled and leaned on Ryan's shoulder, and the female knight's voice was very calm: "Emilia is coming soon, and the five hundred students will follow Ai Milia came back together, you can ask her when the time comes, Emilia did not send me a special letter about this matter, but just mentioned it."
"Well, these five hundred students who graduated from Nuer University are very important, they are the hope of our country's future." Ryan nodded slowly: "Emilia has done a great job recently, and she is now famous all over the world Now, she is hailed as 'the uniter of the empire', 'the great patriot', 'the savior from Nur', 'the coquettish bitch of Nur (as the electors say)', and her efforts successfully prevented the empire from splitting and Into the chaos of the Three Emperors."
"Yes." Suria didn't seem to be very interested in this topic, and the queen said meaningfully: "Emilia is now very powerful, maybe she won't recognize me as a sister again?"
"That's not enough." Ryan smiled and hugged Suria to his lap. Under Teresa's envious eyes, the king hugged his queen and kissed her on the face: "Suria, Why are you worried about this?"
"Her territory under direct control is fifty times the size of mine and twice the size of your territory." Suria obviously resisted being too intimate with Ryan in front of Teresa, but her husband's arm was very Powerful, the queen struggled for a while and saw Ryan's firm attitude, so she had to lean on Ryan with some awkwardness, and said in a low voice: "Ryan, you didn't have so much trouble when you married her."
"Hahahahaha! My wife, you are testing me again." Ryan laughed loudly. He stretched out his hand and scratched Suria's delicate nose, and said with a smile, "I really didn't know Emily from the beginning to the end. At most, I only guessed that she was the daughter of some great nobleman, or escaped from war or downfall, or escaped persecution. Who knew that she would be the Duchess of Nuer, the Elector of Brescia, and the Grand Duke of Wissenland? The first claimant of the top title of the empire?"
"...Is this the reason you came to approach me after you had Emilia?" Su Liya also knew that she was a little unhappy for no reason. After all, her identity and wife's status were beyond doubt. But the well-behaved little maid who had lived with him for many years and who had been with him for many years, suddenly became the queen of the empire, with countless elite troops under her command, and even the most powerful woman in the empire. The military industrial center, the academic center, and the ownership of the southern town of Nur.
Emilia then gave birth to another son, Frederick von Loebowitz Bernardino.
"It's okay, Suria, Emilia is not a bad-hearted person. Teresa was not feeling well when she was taking risks with me, and Emilia took care of her. I was in the hotel with Teresa back then. I discussed this issue, am I right? Dear Teresa?" Ryan said to the sorceress, holding his wife in his arms.
"Ah, um, yes, Emilia took care of me very hard at the beginning. She deliberately scolded me roughly so that I would not pay attention to her." Teresa smiled: "That's not What a great experience."
"Ha, Emilia didn't trust anyone at the time." Ryan nodded, and he continued to chat with Suria: "Ma'am, let me tell you, Emilia and I lived in Marienburg for a while, At that time, this little maid..."
Talking about some interesting things in Marienburg,
Suria listened with interest, and couldn't stop laughing when she heard something interesting. Ryan took the opportunity to lick Suria's beautiful legs and feet in stockings, enjoying the leisure time of the trip.
Teresa was very envious of Suria being able to become Ryan's wife. She had thought about what would happen if she became Ryan's wife more than once, but the sorceress was stubborn but not a fool. She knew that she could not be like Suria. Get on the horse to manage the army and dismount the horse to manage the people, and manage Ryan's territory and court in an orderly manner.
If she became Ryan's wife and got a lot of resources, Teresa knew that her life would be a lot of magic experiments, potion refining, workshop making and meditation, and it would be great to accompany Ryan at most two or three days a week .
The sorceress remembered Aurora's instructions again, about having a child.
Teresa knew in her heart that what Aurora said was not wrong. Aurora was not only thinking about herself and the witches under her command, but also really thinking about Teresa. Teresa and Ryan The connection between them is actually very weak. It is only the relationship between the noble lord and the magic advisor, and at most the relationship between the private female courtiers. If you can imagine it with your head, you can know that this is not a strong relationship.
In terms of appearance, Teresa's appearance and figure are naturally top-notch, but who is Ryan now? If he hinted that he wanted a new maid or female courtier, the entire kingdom would be quickly mobilized. In fact, many knights and nobles had already hinted, but they were all blocked by Suria, and Ryan also made it clear that he was not interested. The same is true for the Garland Council.
In terms of strength, Teresa is still stuck at the peak of the legend, and Olika, Morgiana, and Veronica beside Ryan are already strong in the sanctuary, and Ryan no longer needs Teresa on the issue of magic.
Staying in the duke's castle for the past two weeks, the only role the sorceress can play is...
you know.
Therefore, Teresa often doesn't know why Aurora is so anxious, but the chance of a spellcaster getting pregnant is always small, and she has been with Ryan for a long time. She is in her forties this year. If there is nothing, there is nothing. Method?
Ice witches do have a special secret method. They are frozen by ice magic power and then activated by secret medicine, which can guarantee relatively smooth pregnancy. This is why Kislev gradually becomes dominated by ice witches. The female czar always An important reason for being able to pass on the family line, but it must reach the strength of the sanctuary, and Teresa is not enough at present.
"Theresa?"
what to do? The sorceress was thinking wildly.
"Theresa?"
If you want to consolidate the situation as soon as possible and avoid being marginalized, you must have a child as soon as possible, but you must have the strength of the sanctuary to use secret methods and secret medicines, then...a very terrifying thought suddenly appeared in the heart of the female sorceress idea!
No, absolutely not!
"Ms. Teresa!" Ryan's voice became louder.
"Ah? What's the matter? Ryan." Teresa's thinking was interrupted. She found that her face was scorching hot. The female sorceress held down her skirt and put her fleshy legs together: "I'm thinking about something."
"I'm asking you, when are you going to leave and how long will you be driving?" Ryan looked at the scenery outside the window, and then turned his attention to the sorceress.
"The big rally will only take three to five days. My mother and I will set off in three days. Veronica will not be with us, she will teleport there by herself." Teresa nodded: "After the big rally is over, we will be in Skydome Stay for a week or two, deal with some follow-up matters, and it is very likely to move."
"Well, I understand." Ryan nodded.
The carriage traveled for another two hours, and the place arrived. Although Teresa was a little bit reluctant, she still kissed Ryan goodbye, put on a half-breed elf horse and headed to the Ice Wizard Tower.
In this way, there were only Suria and Ryan left in the carriage. The female knight immediately felt that Ryan was looking at her with malicious eyes, and she quickly refused: "No! Ryan, you must not be here!"
"What are you talking about, Suria, I just want to hug you." Ryan hugged his wife to prevent her from escaping: "Let me hug~ I like to hug you."
Suria nodded shyly. The female knight leaned on Ryan's chest. She thought for a while and asked tentatively, "Did Emilia say when she will arrive?"
"It should be just these two days." What Ryan likes most is to make his noble lady show a shy and strange expression. The king put his arms around his queen and let her sit on his lap, smelling her golden hair The scent of irises: "She said clearly that she doesn't want us to greet her, and she doesn't want us to make any ostentation. Since she likes it, then let her go."
"What about your brother Fulgan?" Surya nodded, and she continued to ask.
"Fulgan is not so fast, it may take a while." Ryan thought for a while: "I guess I will go to Bordello to meet him and his Legion of Ashes."
The two chatted for a while, discussing various internal affairs and trends in the kingdom, as well as foreign policy. Suria felt that Ryan's hands were becoming more and more dishonest, and the female knight quickly reached out to stop her husband from doing bad things: "Wait... …Wait! Ryan, you said that if what Beria said is true, Kislev’s situation is already so bad, the country is in such a state of turmoil, and the empire doesn’t care? I remember that the empire has always supported Kislev Right? Why haven’t you been there recently?”
"Recently, Karl Franz has been devastated by internal strife. How can he have the energy and spare financial support?" Ryan said casually: "Ostland has always had a good relationship with Kislev. This time North The Cardan Expedition also distributed a lot of wealth to them, and Kislev had better not fall, although the situation in this kingdom has gone from bad to worse after the Great Holy War, but no matter how you say it is the first line of defense in the old world."
"Don't look at the recent financial difficulties of the empire, but that's because Emperor Karl asked Gelt to rebuild the Solland and spent a lot of money and energy. As long as the rebuilding of the Solland is completed, the new trade tariffs and fiscal revenue will A steady stream of subsidies to the empire's treasury, the empire will also get a new elite army, this deal is generally a good deal." Ryan continued: "It's just that Emperor Karl has to overcome the current difficulties."
"So, Ryan, you said that the whole old world knows that we are currently the richest, will the emperor come to ask us for a loan?" Surya is concerned about the next thing, the queen's political talent has been acquired in the past two years enough exercise.
"It's possible." Ryan was not surprised by this: "If he comes in person, we might as well borrow some, the return will definitely be greater."
"Well." Suria nodded first, and then tentatively said: "By the way, as for the new chief tax officer, I tend to let Sylvia's father, Vincent, be an upright person and do his best. , and Sylvia's father, enough to be trusted, what do you think?"
"My wife has said so, what else can I do but agree? Okay, I will appoint Mr. Vincent as the new tax controller when I go back. Gasparton has worked for me for nearly 20 years, and it is okay. Retired." Ryan nodded.
Even if this decision was passed, Ryan suddenly thought of the tax system in his mind. Not only did he feel a little bit emotional, but neither he nor the empire had encountered the most difficult tax system issue in this world.
What did he not encounter?
He did not encounter the very famous "gentlemen's preferential treatment" in the late Celestial Dynasty.
Since the reorganization of the empire by Ludwig, both civilians and military nobles have the obligation to pay taxes.
In Britannia, the great nobles actually have to pay taxes, including the king's shield tax and the tithe tax of the Church of the Fairy of the Lake. Dare not to pay, and Ryan's close relationship with the Fairy of the Lake and the Witch of the Lake God destined him to directly invoke the amazing wealth of the Fairy of the Lake Church.
Due to Ryan's strength, the entire kingdom is now paying the shield tax except for the Principality of Carcassonne. The Principality of Carcassonne is specifically exempted by Ryan, because as long as it can block the invasion from the south, it will be the greatest contribution to the kingdom.
All classes are paying taxes, which greatly relieves the country's financial pressure, and also allows Ryan's administration to guarantee strength. With the full support of the Church of the Fairy in the Lake and his personal prestige, the king's orders, the dukes Dare not to listen, have to listen, and not like Guo Jia in the late period of Dameng who was extremely poor, and the local gentry was rich and enjoyed the gentry, it was Ryan who cheated.
Of course, if he doesn't cheat, he will use a knife, and the country cannot continue to rot like this.
That's the problem with Kislev, the Boyers don't pay taxes, and neither do the great nobles.
"Suria, let me ask you something." Ryan thought of this and asked, "Did Lilith say the specific time?"
"Time? Yes." There was a playful look in Surya's sea-blue eyes: "Can't wait, my husband?"
"Hey hey~ Didn't you make an appointment with Lilith?" Ryan kissed his wife's cherry lips: "Tell me."
"Madam said that this year's Fairy Day in the Lake, she will consummate the house with you in the tower." Surya blushed: "Madam also said that I will also participate at that time, and do it for you and Madam." a testimony."
"Well, I see."
………… I am the dividing line of the gentry giving preferential treatment to the world’s invincible………
A few hours later, Ryan returned to his Duke's castle. He pulled Suria's men out of the carriage. The couple looked at each other and smiled, only to find Angron squatting in the corner of the castle gate and laughing loudly: "Hahahahaha !"
"Brother, what are you laughing at?" Ryan asked Angron curiously, "What is so funny?"
"Hahahahaha~" Angron couldn't help covering his face with a smile, and the Primarch of the World Eater pointed his thumb inside the gate, laughing non-stop: "Ahahaha~"
"???" Ryan hurriedly stepped forward to listen.
Inside, there were two children's voices arguing.
"My dad is the most powerful dad in the world!"
"So is my dad!"
"No, my father is, he is the most powerful!"
"Nonsense, my father is the strongest!"
"No, my father is the strongest, my father is a great hero!"
"So is my dad!"
"Hmph! Let me tell you, my father is amazing, he dares to eat Xiang!"
"My dad dares too!"
"My dad dares to make a prickly prickly pear!"
"My dad can do it too! He not only dared to shoot a prickly pear, but also dared to stuff oo into the barrel of Hawk's gun. Can your dad do it?"
"Of course my father can! He can stick his head in Nurgle's soup and stir it! Can your father?"
"My dad can not only stir, but also drink!"
Ryan frowned when he heard that, he wondered where the two brats were arguing here! Still so arrogant?
The king hurriedly walked towards the castle.
Taking a closer look, Little Devonshire and Little Frederick were arguing with two toys together, and the quarrel was very fierce. Not far away, the Lady Empire was sitting beside her, laughing so hard that she couldn't straighten her waist up.
Ryan suddenly felt that the blood all over his body was rushing to his head, and the veins on his head were exposed.
OK! It turns out that you are talking about the same father! ! !
Inverted! Inverted! ! !
