Anna was actually engaged to the son of the Governor of the Island Republic, so Dust deliberately concealed Anna's identity when he came to the Island Republic for medical treatment. But as soon as this incident broke out, it became clear that the "sick noble" was Anna Cornelia Scipio, the princess of the Seven Hills Empire. The governor of the Island Republic immediately sent a group of people after learning the news. Servants come to look after Anna. It is said that the chubby son of the Island Republic also visited Anna several times, but every time he came, Anna's condition was not suitable for long conversations.
Ella finds it somewhat strange that the princess of the Seven Hills Empire marries the son of the Governor of the Island Republic. After all, the Island Republic has an electoral system. Although the elected Governor serves for life, after the Governor dies, there will not be many sons in the country. Influential. But she just felt it was strange. She didn't care about Anna's engagement.
The good news is that Anna's health is improving every day. Not only has her body temperature dropped, but her wounds have also gradually recovered.
Avicenna was also put on death row by the island republic for attempted murder. Since he murdered the fiancée of the governor's son, the interrogation process was extremely concise, and he was convicted in just half a day.
But not all the news is good news——
"What are you talking about? Paracelsus hasn't been found yet?"
Ella's voice was so loud it could blow the roof off.
"Yes, the guards of the Island Republic have already searched Avicenna's house!" Amy covered her ears while trying hard to make her voice heard clearly by Ella, "Avicenna's house, his The homes of his disciples and grandchildren, the homes of merchants who sold Avicenna's medical books, and even the large baths where Avicenna went every day were searched inside and out, but Paracelsus was still not found!"
"What do these island republic guards do? Amy, call all our people and come with me to find them!"
Ella hurried out of the door, but met Giovanni who wanted to enter.
"Giovanni, you came just in time, about Avicenna..."
"We are still continuing the interrogation." Giovanni said, "Compared with this, there is something more important to you, the King of Sweden. The supplies that the Governor promised you have been prepared. Please come with me."
Giovanni took Ella to a warehouse filled with food, weapons, gold and silver. Giovanni turned around and handed a thick stack of paper into Ella's hand.
"It has been a total of four months and thirteen days since I went to the Pirate Kingdom as an envoy. The compensation is calculated at one and two times the price of the most elite mercenaries. The King of Sweden used 20,000 troops. Novgorod and Khazar The Khanate's military strength was not originally included in the agreement, but the governor asked me to include it. The list of relevant supplies is already here, please check it with the King of Sweden."
Ella was slightly startled. Regardless of the price, she started to calculate the time after the troops were assembled in Gotland. In that case, it would only be less than four months after the full amount was calculated. The island republic started counting time from the day the envoy arrived in Gotland, which was really too generous.
"Our military expenses are calculated as mercenaries, so what should we do with Azov City?" Amy asked from the side, "Should we hand it over directly to you?"

"No - the Governor regards the King of Sweden as a partner, not a mercenary. Since the King of Sweden captured the city of Azov, the Governor is naturally willing to pay for the purchase. King of Sweden, please look back and see the price of Azov City. It’s also on the list.”
"Hmm... I didn't expect that your governor is quite nice."
"Something's wrong, this is so different from your initial attitude!" Amy carefully protected Ella behind her, "What's your intention in doing this?"
Giovanni smiled and bowed to Ella.
"There is no intention. I just want to improve the relationship with the pirate kingdom. But the governor has another plan and wants to ask the King of Sweden if he is willing to participate."
"What's the matter? It's easy to talk about! It's easy to talk about!"
The string of numbers on the list made Ella extremely comfortable and made her smile from ear to ear. Amy even doubted whether Ella would laugh so hard that she would burst out laughing.
Giovanni took a deep breath.
"King of Sweden, do you think the Seven Hills Empire is too old and decadent?"
Ella's smile suddenly froze.
"Giovanni...what...do you mean?"
"We Island Republic people believe that we also have the blood of the Seven Hills Empire. The governor wants to destroy the ancient empire that has become alienated - and then create a new country belonging to the Seven Hills people."
Amy was dumbfounded when she heard this: "You want to go to war with the Qiqiu Empire? Aren't you a vassal state of the Qi Qiu Empire? Isn't your governor's son engaged to Princess Anna? I heard that you also lent a lot of money to the Qi Qiu Empire... "
"Borrowing money? That's just diplomatic funds. When the Qiqiu Empire asked us to borrow money, the governor wanted to refuse, but after my persuasion, he agreed. Do you know why? Because this is what I dedicated to the governor. A diplomatic approach.”
Giovanni proudly described his long-term plan in front of Ella:
"Loaning to the financially strapped Qiqiu Empire can show that we have no ambitions. They still cannot pay back the money when it is due, and I further proposed to slow down the repayment date through marriage. In order to show our 'loyalty', even this engagement is The son of the governor was adopted. Otherwise, how could the Seven Hills Empire sit by and watch us go to war with the Republic of Liguria? How could it sit by and watch the pirate kingdom attack Azov City?"
"... Treating us as cheap mercenaries is your strategy, right?"
"Of course. If you hadn't captured the city of Azov and destroyed the fleet of the Ligurian Republic, how could our war have been so easy? But the Qiqiu Empire has probably realized that something is wrong. They have sent envoys a few days ago to ask for mediation. Our war. We have spent so much money to advance the plan to this point, how can we easily give up the benefits we are about to obtain?"
"So?" Ella asked seriously, "The Seven Hills Empire has intervened to mediate. If the Seven Hills Empire and the Republic of Liguria join forces, the Island Republic will definitely lose. How are you going to deal with this situation?"
"I suggest that the Governor temporarily agrees to mediation. The mediation meeting will be held in Constantiniya in half a month. But the Governor will not go - this half month is enough for us to eliminate the remnants of the Ligurian Republic. fleet and returned from the Republic of Liguria. What will begin in half a month will not be a peace conference, but a war with the Seven Hills Empire!"

After a pause, Giovanni smiled and added:
"Of course, when I persuaded the Governor to lend money to the Qiqiu Empire, I had already anticipated that this war would eventually come. The Governor has already been prepared. Once we declare war on the Qi Qiu Empire, there will be many Allies came to help - King of Sweden, if you are willing to join us, the governor promises to give you a more generous reward than this time."
