The Secret Service is also known as the Shadow of the Crown, or the Hounds of the Shadow. Its origins can be traced as far back as King Alstorfo who established the Kingdom of Gaul/Sealand outside the mountains, and the era of the fourteen original noble families; the Wings were established in order to deal with domestic and foreign spying and infiltration.
The first regiment leader was also one of the fourteen original nobles, Deugosh, a Magyar from Samatia; he was also the light cavalry/hunting cavalry commander of the new kingdom. He was known for his cruelty and unscrupulousness in dealing with enemies and potential threats at home and abroad, but he was eventually killed in the Black Forest.
However, after the death of Deugosh, the Wing Regiment he led was continued by the Rose Dynasty and continued to be a sharp blade against domestic rebels and potential rebel forces; until this sharp blade was unexpectedly put on the throne, he was known as the "Sleeping King" "Otto I, the "lecher", broke it with his own hands.
The mother of Otto I, who was originally destined to be the emperor, was just a palace maid from a minor noble family. Therefore, as a young son without a strong natal family, he entered the monastery very early and became one of the royal family's high-level arrangements in the church. As a result, a plague caused heavy casualties to the royal family, and he suddenly ascended to power.
However, the severely depressed life in the monastery distorted his spirit and body; so much so that after he ascended the throne, he did not hesitate to indulge in the sensual enjoyment of men and women; he left the royal capital for many years, spending several days at a time, It is famous for its ten-day orgy of hunting and feasting.
As a result, not only the ministers far away in the royal court complained about this, but also the many large and small noble territories on his patrol route were troubled and burdened. Because in addition to the royal guards and Tokiomi, he also brought a large number of personal followers and retinue groups to patrol across the border.
The parasitic groups related to these kings were eaten up like locusts, and the large and small territories passed by the throne parade also caused the nobles who, according to tradition, must provide services to the transiting monarchs, suffered heavy losses and even went bankrupt; Centrifugalism led to radical changes.
A vassal/retainer of an earl was forced to commit ignominious suicide because he failed to provide a satisfactory diet for the throne; he was also deprived of his fief and title by his master under pressure. Therefore, the son of the deceased decided to fight to the death and summoned many knights who had suffered the same fate to rise up and attack.
They dressed up as local petitioning monks, and were caught off guard by the palace guards. They rushed into the temporary palace in Soissons and rushed to Otto I who was holding an unobstructed meeting. However, because the companions vented their anger and hunted down those courtiers, people were full of resentment;
As a result, he missed the best opportunity to assassinate the king and left the leading retainer's son to the hastily arriving palace guards and royal knights. Even though he tried his best to fight, he only had time to use his throwing dagger to kill Otto. I had a scar on his face and was cut into pieces on the spot.
However, the consequences and impact of this incident were extremely serious. While causing the Earl of Soissons and a large number of nobles waiting on the border of Amiens to be implicated and punished, it also greatly shaken and corrupted the authority of the royal family. Otto I, who was frightened by his narrow escape, became even more insane.
He even ignored the dissuasion of his ministers and expanded the scope of his involvement and liquidation several times; even his blood cousin, the Wings Group, an institution directly controlled by the royal family, was not spared. Just because he suspected that the other party was involved in the conspiracy because of his childhood grudges.
So, when this sharp blade hidden in the darkness was broken for such a ridiculous reason, the ears of "Sleeping King" Otto I suddenly became clear, and the undercurrents of the Rose Dynasty finally converged into Within the kingdom, there was a huge fight among several noble lineages.
In the end, it was the distant branch of the royal family that rose on the border, the Marquis Philot from Cherbourg, who quickly conquered the rebellious nobles and cities along the way. In the end, he won the battle of Sena involving the seven original nobles. Holding the flag of the Lily high, he entered the royal capital in the face of public expectations.
Then, Marquis Philo ordered to drink the powerful wine from the East to death of Otto I, who had rebelled against his relatives. He also married Otto I's only unmarried sister, Lenore, and was consecrated and anointed by the archbishop from Reims. A new generation of Lily Dynasty lineage was born...
Of course, the new dynasty learned the lessons of Otto I's perverse behavior. On the one hand, it reversed the chaos and formally renewed the oath and favored those local vassals; on the other hand, it reestablished the Wings as the king's eyes and ears, and further expanded its authority. and sphere of influence…
But as the saying goes, things must turn against each other. With the continuous expansion of generations of kings, the Wings Group under the rule of the Lily Dynasty has become a bloated and huge vested interest group that is parasitic on the royal power; it is filled with a large number of noble children, and is accustomed to Rely on this status to make money.
But gradually lost their original basic functions as the king's eyes, ears and minions. Finally, during the reign of Philo VI, an unexpected incident reached the limit of everyone's tolerance. These members of the Wings Group, who were regarded as a cancer in the capital, actually openly kidnapped and hijacked a team that was sending a bride off.
However, when the families of both men and women, who were born into noble families, reluctantly handed over enough ransom, they only brought back a bride who had been ravaged and went crazy. Many of the accompanying female guests were insulted to varying degrees. This result also caused the royal guards and knights to go berserk.
Led by many interested parties, they rushed into the Wing Regiment's headquarters/residence, hoping to capture the culprit who was sheltered within. However, the members of the Wing Group also have strong family backgrounds; therefore, the conflict quickly intensified into a fire that spread throughout the city.
When Philo VI heard the news and rushed back with the Royal Guards, the situation was out of control. Less than half of the royal capital was ignited, and at least dozens of hatred-filled noble families fled from the royal capital, Seine City; then news came that they had raised a rebel flag in the south and elected the Duke of Valois as their leader.
And Philo VI was just a relatively mediocre lord of the establishment. He could neither cut through the mess of severely divided ministers in a timely manner, judge the guilt of any party, and decisively win the support of the other party; nor could he form a crusade army. He was hesitant to pacify the South.
Because the leader of the Wings Regiment who caused the situation and was jointly and severally responsible for it was his closest favorite and half-brother. He was worried that he could not ignore the calls of several powerful aristocratic factions in the royal court, who rarely stood together to share the same hatred. As a result, the situation slipped into the abyss with repeated delays.
In the end, it turned into a chaotic war that lasted for more than 20 years between the royal family factions in the country and the local noble factions; they had to give up the suppression of the royal family branches, and fought against a certain Count of Besançon. He was famous; in the end, Philo VI died of mental exhaustion.
Vlad III and Philo VII, who succeeded to the throne, were too short-lived to see the outcome of this domestic war. In the end, with the backbone and direct members of the Lily royal family severely withered, the royal court could only send the young Compiègne II to the shaky throne;
Then on the 137th day, the army was greeted with the acacia flag high. Because the royal faction headed by the Count of Besançon had defeated most of the coalition forces of the rebel nobles in the Battle of Bourges on the Central Plateau, and thus took advantage of the victory and became the well-deserved royal regent.
However, it was not until the third generation of the royal regent family that they completely defeated the last group of rebellious border nobles and reached an armistice agreement with neighboring countries; and the only remaining lily flag at the top of the royal capital was completely replaced by the acacia flag. But the Wings Group was also completely banned and banned.
The vast majority of people were labeled as unforgivable, suffered brutal liquidation and implication, and were swept into the garbage dump of the historical stage. However, to meet the needs of governance, the new royal family/Besançon family also established a new royal judicial knight with similar functions.
The main members no longer have public identities and are known for their low profile and secretive behavior hiding in the dark; thus the name of the Wang family's hound was born. Until the celestial change more than two hundred years ago, during that period of chaos that lasted for several generations, the White Iris Dynasty rose.
Therefore, there are also rumors that the predecessor of the Royal Confidential Bureau of the new dynasty is said to be derived from the royal judicial knights of the old dynasty and several survivors of the replacement court; therefore, it also inherited its structure and part of the legacy and inheritance. But no matter how ferocious a hound is, it will grow old and decay.
In the era when the King of the Burning Sun and the Lord of Terror co-existed, it was also the most glorious period for the Royal Secret Bureau; their spies and assassins could even be active abroad for a long time through the channels of money and businessmen, and became defectors and enemies. Organization, the inescapable nightmare.
Then it turned from prosperity to decline, and became more and more obscure as the rulers on the throne for the next few generations. So much so that on the eve of the May storm, under the turbulent public opinion and undercurrents that could shake the royal family, no one could give sufficient warnings and suggestions to the royal family...
"The former chief of the Royal Confidential Bureau, Dean de Beaumont, known as the cross-dressing knight, was once one of the best patrons for those of us on the fringes." The old hunter Ajax recalled to Jiang Tian again Said: "Although he is a bit stingy with money, or he likes to worry about details, but most of the time, he is still an honest knight who values credibility and honor, honors his promises, and never breaks his promises."
"It's a pity that since King Burning Sun and King Scorched Sun passed away one after another, and King Gu Gao was assassinated and disappeared in the seventeenth year of his reign, the functions of the Secret Bureau have been deteriorating to the point of paralysis. Even the remuneration of temporary informants has been unable to be paid. came out; otherwise, why would the former royal family in the capital have failed to escape several times and leaked information about external contacts, and finally fell into the hands of the mob..."
But in any case, compared to the capital, which had been destroyed in the riots and had been dug up and burned from the inside out, the headquarters and various strongholds of the Royal Confidential Bureau; this place is located in the Southern Crown Territory. The secret storage space beneath the ruins of the palace may be the last trace of its existence.
Especially among them, many records and items scattered and lost from the disintegrated ancient hunter organizations and various factions were actually collected and collected; it was even more complete than what Ajax remembered. This makes people a little curious; is the collapse and dispersion of the ancient hunter organization actually related to the royal family's secret situation?
