Chapter 1,268 The Envoy From the Empire Comes
,!
The two people left behind looked at each other, what could they say. He is a god.
Reluctantly, Lin turned his head and asked the old Duke next to him: "Have you ever been to the Kingdom of God, sir?"
"This really doesn't exist. Is there anything I should pay attention to?"
"There is nothing to pay attention to. His Majesty Ke Yin's territory is very deserted, and there is nothing important. It is very empty. His Majesty Ke Yin did not spend much time granting me the qualification before. Sir, you need to explain it to your people first. Something?"
Although Lin could run away with his men, Kawei Gong could not resist. But this is not a cooperative attitude. It is not difficult to respect people, so Lin asked this question.
However, the young deacon who was the only one who came with the old Duke seemed a little panicked. Originally, when the duke travels, at least half of the duke's guard must follow him to protect his safety.
But the old man relied on his extraordinary strength and the speed of his custom-made car, so he always had a way of leaving those who should protect him behind. Now he has to go to the Kingdom of God again. Regardless of whether this is true or not, it doesn't matter which god's Kingdom he goes to. The young deacon is a little at a loss because this is beyond his ability.
Kawei Gong was also a resolute and resolute person in his work, not only because he was not in favor of the emperor. Moreover, the partner he was cooperating with this time was a god, and the things he wanted to do were helpful to Him. The old man did not think that he was in danger at all. Not to mention that with the magician who is known as the best at escaping by his side, his safety is absolutely no problem.
To put it another way, if you really want to be safe, you shouldn't appear in front of such a person. Whether it was a god or a magician, when he appeared in front of them, he was undoubtedly putting his life in their hands. If you don't even have this trust and courage, you should stay away.
So when faced with the magician's question, the old Duke didn't say anything to the deacon he brought. He just said, "Let's go. Let me see His Majesty Ko Yin's Kingdom of God."
But before he left, his apprentice came to disturb him again. The taciturn Kaya walked into the small living room, saluted the old Duke and her teacher, and said, "Teacher, a special envoy who claims to be the Emperor of the Gwana Empire is here and wants to see you."
Before they could leave, the two people looked at each other in confusion. Neither of them knew the purpose of this special envoy, and they were not even sure whether this envoy was the real one.
Lin asked: "Do you know who the person is? Did you tell me your name?" At the same time, he turned to the old man next to him for help. This is to hope that the other party can rely on his own understanding of the aristocracy to confirm the authenticity of the person coming. Your Majesty, the Emperor, would never send an unknown person out.
Kaya replied: "The name of the person who came is Evren Muchashebesi."
"Ah!" "Ah, it's him." The old Duke and a certain magician both reacted at the same time.
As a vassal of His Majesty the Emperor, how could the old Duke be unfamiliar with this family of tax collectors. And Efren should be the last male among the youngest generation in their family. But what is this kid doing here? The old Duke was puzzled.
In Lin's mind, this name was the poor boy who had been chatting up the demon prince Azad who was dressed as a woman, but was frightened to the point of peeing again. He seems to be a member of the emperor's trusted family, so he doesn't know what he is doing here? The magician was puzzled.
Although he didn't know what the emperor of the Gwana Empire had behind his sudden arrival, he knew that he couldn't ignore such a guest. On the other side, the matter between the old Duke and the Gold Coin Goddess also needs to be dealt with. So Lin didn't think much and said, "First invite the guests to the conference living room and wait on them. I'll go see them after I've taken care of things here."
One side is just the emperor's 'special envoy', and the other side is the Grand Duke himself and the goddess of gold coins. It is very clear which side is more important. Anyway, he is a magician and is not under the control of the Gwana Empire. In addition, the emperor's special envoy came before him, and his bossy attitude made Lin even more uncomfortable, so he just asked to wait over there.
"No." The old Duke stopped him and said, "Xiao Gai, let's go see the special envoy first. You can give your name as you like. I'll know at a glance whether the person is genuine."
The old Duke was in no hurry to meet the gods and obtain the identity of the elect. On the contrary, the movements on the emperor's side were more important to him. If something changes, he will know it immediately so that he can adjust it immediately. As for recognizing faces or something, that's just an excuse.
Even though he was not doing well in politics, it seemed that his survival to the present was due to his friendship with the emperor in the past. If it was just like this, he would have been ripped apart and eaten long ago!
Duke Carvey's strategic vision is unmatched by ordinary people. It's just that he doesn't like political hypocrisy, so he takes retreat in order to advance. On the surface, he seemed to be excluded from the political core circle, but in fact, he firmly grasped the emperor's movements, followed the other party's will, and became a competent opposition and troublemaker.
Without his role, the group of people surrounding the emperor would not be able to go to heaven. It was precisely the existence of such a person who could replace anyone in the court at any time that made others restrain themselves and made it easier for the emperor to control.
Therefore, the monarch and his ministers seem to be distant, but in fact they are closer. The old Duke's rivals, the Risa family, have only been trying to kill this old rival for so many years, but they have never been able to do so. Under such a premise, it is impossible for Duke Kawei to not care about the emperor's movements.
The calculation behind the old duke may not be understood by a magician who has not reached that level of a certain pattern, but he has no reason to refuse Duke Kawei's request. After telling the green mouse hidden in the hood to let Hefquin notify the goddess waiting in the Kingdom of God, he and the old Duke went to the conference living room to meet the guests who came from afar.
While walking through the corridor, through the window, I saw that the carriage parked in front of the main entrance of the courtyard was indeed a familiar one. It was a very tacky two-passenger carriage decorated with gems and various precious metals.
But this carriage was not the only one. There was another carriage with a slightly different shape but the same tacky shape parked side by side. There were more than ten knights serving as escorts. They all rode quietly on their horses without dismounting, as if they were about to leave at any time.
Lin was slightly puzzled by this situation. The old Duke felt the same way. The other carriage came from another emperor's valet family. It was not clear why the other party came here. I only knew that it was not a 'forced attack' gesture.
The two people walked into the conference room with doubts. The difference between this place and the small living room is that the conference room is more like a conference room for negotiations. The long table runs across the center of the room, dividing the living room into two.
There are velvet curtains on the side near the window to block the sun. Inside, magic-driven chandeliers emit soft natural light, illuminating every corner of the room quite brightly.
The maid brought by Marquis Balan is serving elf tea to the guests. The tea, which is so light that it has no taste, is the best thing for entertaining among the nobles.
When Lin and Kawei Gong appeared together in the conference living room, the two waiting people stood up in a hurry and saluted and greeted them. But the appearance of the old Duke surprised them.
Duke Kawei also noticed at this time that the head of the other family of the emperor's servants actually appeared in person. Baron Mahmoud was one of the six families who accompanied the emperor. From delivering water and making tea to doing laundry and folding quilts, members of these six families took care of everything. In layman's terms, a handyman.
But even for a handyman, there's something not quite right about his appearance. Because the position where Baron Mamud stood was the follower position headed by the boy from the Muhashebesi family.
When nobles travel, unless there are special circumstances, the ranking is generally determined by the level of title and class. If the title and rank are the same, the family background and blood relationship to the emperor will be looked at first, and the family strength will be looked at last. Established families that have been passed down for a long time are always more powerful than new aristocrats.
But Efren Muchashebeshko has not yet inherited the title of baron. At most, he is a knight, which cannot be inherited. This just means that he has officially entered the aristocratic circle, and there is still a distance between him and the real aristocrats. If you want to stand in front of Baron Mahmoud, you are not qualified.
Unless it is, the boy from Muhashebeisi's family has other bargaining chips. For example, the monk's robe he wore was embroidered with Koyin's holy symbol.
Two envoys from the Gwana Empire first greeted the old Duke. He said: "Your Majesty the Grand Duke, I really didn't expect to see you here. Please forgive me for the long absence." As an imperial noble, status comes first. After greeting the old Duke, it was revealed that the owner of this place, Guybrash Tripwood. "Good day, Your Majesty the Great Magician. We bring His Majesty the Emperor's greetings to you."
Lin returned the greeting and said, "Please give my regards to the emperor of your country."
The envoy from Midi is just a messenger, and there is no such thing as "it's like I'm here in person". Therefore, it is enough to salute according to the status of both parties. Of course, there is no need to kneel down three times and kowtow nine times.
If it were a purely aristocratic interaction, it would naturally be a lot of hypocritical politeness. Only by doing some communication activities would there be a chance to "inadvertently" highlight the theme. But Lin is a magician, and even before time travel, he was a fat nerd, so he doesn't care about such nonsense. He got right to the topic and asked, "I wonder if the two of you who are here as His Majesty's special envoys can give you any advice?"
After all, Efren, a young boy, is not as calm as Baron Mahmoud. His eyes were wandering, unable to hide a trace of worry, and finally he asked: "Where is His Highness the Fourteenth Prince?"
Um? Is it related to that person? Lin was confused, but still politely replied: "His Royal Highness occasionally lives here, but most of the time he still takes his big demon followers with him, and I don't know where he went."
Although the Arch Devil's teleportation talent is not as useful as the flash technique, it can also be used to replenish the energy of the Haggiri clan. So for the sake of the Insadu in his hand, the demon prince let the big demon run around with him while recharging it. During this time, he happened to be missing.
Efren breathed a sigh of relief when he got the answer. Seeing this expression, Lin guessed that the young man was frightened by the transvestite.
In short, after confirming that the volatile prince was not around, Efren returned to his normal expression and said: "Your Majesty the Great Magician, we are here to represent the wise, kind, heroic, and lion-like Al." His Majesty the Emperor Ming Kazalnia sincerely invites you to visit the Imperial City of Nineveh in person. His Majesty the Emperor hopes to meet you in person."
