Schliemann looked at Connie who was trying out the orbit and said to Apton: "Believe it or not, my Crescent can now defeat your entire Air Guard in Valance."
Of course Apton believes it. The speed is fast, the flexibility is high, and the range of the cannon is far greater than those steel spears with little destructive power, not to mention the destructive power of this thing.
"That's not my Valance yet. If I were to sit on the throne, I would also move the cannon to the flying ship."
Valance continental island, Linxue City, the castle of Lord Yumes.
"Fabuin, the only way I can help you is not to report you to Lin En XI... you should leave quickly."
Farbuin was not panicked at all. He spoke calmly and asked, "Where is the Youmis I know who dared to kill the prince in anger?"
Youmis let out an annoyed look on his face, as if he was regretting what Farbuin had mentioned.
"At that time, I was too young and thought that it was for the king to eradicate dissidents...
After all, he is a member of the royal family. Can there be no consequences if he is killed? Look at me now, I have been given the title of a marquis and thrown into this fiefdom near the top of the mountain. To put it bluntly, I am waiting to die. "
"Then do you want to wait to die?"
"What can I do if I don't wait to die? I have a total of about thirty soldiers including the guards, and there is not a single knight on the foot of the horse.
When I go out, I ride in a one-horse carriage, you know? One horse!
There are only three horses in the whole castle, and there is also a mare who is pregnant with a calf. She dare not ride one for fear of an accident.
Lin Xuecheng...is this even a city? The total population is only a little over 2,000, and the tax collected is less than one-third of that of Acorn Town!
They say that we are the lord of a city, but the city wall collapsed and there is no money to repair it. The city gate is narrow and it blocks the big cars. Now the people don’t go through the city gate, so they just come and go through the collapsed city wall...
Alas, it's a good thing that Lin Xuecheng is a cold place and doesn't attract bandits. Otherwise, if hundreds of thieves and bandits came, the city would have to be cleaned up. "
Fabuin quietly listened to Yumis complaining about life in Lin Xuecheng. The more he complained, the more confident Fabuin felt.
"So, you don't want to go back to your cozy Oak Manor?"
"Aren't you talking nonsense?"
"Then do it with me. I'm sure this time."
Youmis calmed down and drank all the wine in the cup. The wooden cup stopped on the table with a bang.
"You thought so too ten years ago. What did you get in the end?"
A trace of pain flashed across Farbuin's face. The betrayal ten years ago left too many scars on him.
"This time is different..."
"What's the difference? There's a reason for this kind of thing to happen in the first place. Your beginning last time was a bit far-fetched...
Yes, Bronn's tip was indeed a fatal blow, but think about it, even without Bronn's tip, even if you succeeded in the surprise attack on the royal city, what would happen next? Why should the nobles of Valance recognize you as their king?
It is true that you, Fabuin Dimi Nielan, are a member of the royal family, but your uncle is still a cousin, and his bloodline is not close to the Linn royal family. "
"This time is indeed different. I have found the heir of the Cervisi family."
Youmis opened his mouth wide and looked around carefully.
There were only the two of them in the deserted castle hall, and a crackling fire, like a furnace expressing opinions.
"It's a capital crime for you to look for him...and you found him...why didn't you know to stop? Can't you just live your life peacefully?"
"Hide in a corner like this and warm yourself by the fire like you?"
"Did I do this voluntarily..."
"Lynn Eleven threw you here. In a sense, he protected you. With your upright temper, hanging out with the old nobles in the palace will only harm you.
Don't worry too much. Although the prince's cronies quickly distanced themselves from each other after the incident, they are also very worried about you getting letters or other things from the prince.
Their desire to get rid of you is no less than my desire to get rid of Bronn. "
Youmis snorted twice, as if he was laughing at those dirty guys who only used conspiracy methods in secret.
"According to what you say, I have to thank Lin En XI for saving my life?"
“He should have listened to the Queen Mother.
Lin En Eleven was only a teenager at that time and had no intention of protecting you. It was the Queen Mother who really wanted the whole incident to end.
After all, what you killed was the son of Lin En X and the dead Queen Manna, which was a thorn in the Queen Mother's eyes. "
Yumis clicked his tongue and sighed, as if he was regretting the past time.
"Palace battles and stuff... it's so boring... When did our Valance become like this?
Oh, those who rush into battle are not reused, while those who flatter and fawn are promoted step by step? "
"Yumis, you are a sword. You are very good at not throwing it away after use. And you are still rising higher and higher? By keeping you in the palace, will more people think that the Queen Mother ordered you to kill the prince?"
Youmis was choked, and for a long time he muttered like he was defending.
"I didn't kill the prince for the Queen Mother... I did it to quell the upcoming rebellion and to ensure the peace of the country..."
Farbuin sighed, as if he was feeling regretful, or as if Jumis's shallowness made him realize what a precious friend he was.
"The next words may make you feel uncomfortable, Yumis, but I must say that I don't want you to live in regret for your decision."
Youmis grabbed the empty wine glass and stared, as if waiting for a sentence.
"The prince has no intention of rebelling. The mobilization of troops and the correspondence with most of the generals are all fabricated, in order to induce a righteous man to kill the prince in anger.
And you, my friend Yumis, you are the righteous man with strong patriotism, and you have been taken advantage of..."
After a long silence, Youmis frowned and pulled the old sofa under his butt in disbelief, almost touching Fabuin's sofa.
"No way! This logic doesn't make sense! If the prince has not made any rebellion, then why does the queen mother think he is a threat?"
"Because he may be recommended as the regent. If he becomes the regent, what will happen to the Queen Mother?"
There was a creaking sound, and Yumis's big hand had already smashed the wooden wine glass into pieces.
He had an angry face, and his red beard swayed with his breathing, like a flame ignited by anger.
"The royal family of Lynn...makes me sick."
"Then join us in overthrowing it."
Youmis hesitated no longer and asked a question.
"Is there support from other nobles?"
"Yes, including Marquis Gilly Palmsey."
"The monarch of Weidilan County? Why does he want to go through this muddy water?"
Fabouin curled his lips and said, "We all believe that the thieves who stole the country two hundred years ago should be hanged. The Cervisi royal family is the real and only royal family."
