Following the spacious corridor paved with gold bricks and arriving at the door of the meeting hall, Lin Qi suddenly felt a few strange eyes looking at him. Www,QuanBen-XiaoShuo,CoMHe frowned and pushed open the main door of the meeting hall as if nothing had happened.
Hanging on Lin Qi's belt was a badge for walking freely in the palace. This was a method learned from the Blood Qin Empire. The token on Lin Qi's body can be freely passed through any corner of the palace. Even if he wants to break into Alda's bedroom in the middle of the night, no one will stop him.
The guards along the way just glanced at Lin Qi and stopped paying attention to him. Only among the palace guards near the main hall, a few unfamiliar faces appeared. Unlike the well-behaved palace guards of the Longshan Empire, these guys looked at Lin Qi unscrupulously.
The guards in the Longshan Empire Palace are all carefully selected heavenly warriors, and they have all signed soul contracts. Under the training of evil spirits such as Hazy Nightmare, they are as rigid as granite. While standing guard, even if a wasp stung them in the eye, they would not move at all.
These guys who stood crookedly and stared at Lin Qi with wide eyes were obviously outsiders who had sneaked in through some means. Moreover, their strength is similar to that of the few people Lin Qi felt in the Black Spirit Continent. They have the soul aura of the lower-level gods, but their physical strength is relatively weak. At most, they can exert the equivalent of the real lower-level gods Liuqi. The strength to succeed.
With a sneer on his lips, Lin Qi pushed open the heavy door of the Chaoyi Hall and walked slowly into the hall.
There are many important ministers gathered in the main hall, and all the nobles and ministers of the Longshan Empire who are qualified to attend the official court meeting are gathered here. The military representatives headed by Blackbeard, the government representatives headed by Yun, and a man sitting lazily on the throne yawning , Emperor Arda, whose eyes were deeply sunken, and a group of people were discussing whether to send more troops to the eastern plains.
In the past month or so, Diogo's Demon Dragon Legion has been particularly active. The two countries' coalition forces under Dragon City were ambushed several times by the Demon Dragon Legion. Several famous generals of the Dayan Dynasty suffered heavy losses. More than 200,000 troops were lost.
The Dayan Dynasty was a little overwhelmed, and they sent a letter asking for help to the Longshan Empire. Now they are discussing whether the Longshan Empire should continue to send reinforcements, and if so, how many should be sent. Blackbeard advocated sending troops, and he followed the inertial thinking of pirates and bandits. He firmly believes that only by sending troops can the Longshan Empire seize greater benefits.
In addition to agreeing to send troops, Yun also led a group of civil servants to calculate how much food and ammunition should be prepared.
As for the great nobles of the original Vyas Commercial Federation, they intervened from time to time, hoping to obtain greater benefits from the Eastern Great Plains. They worked hard to persuade Arda, hoping to obtain a certain fiefdom from the Eastern Great Plains, and they hoped that they would purchase goods from the Eastern Great Plains. Being able to get preferential tax treatment in Longshan Empire and so on.
So when Lin Qi opened the door and came in, the courtiers in the hall were noisy, and Alda was already sitting on the throne and almost dozed off. Just look at his sunken eyes and two big dark bags under his eyes, you can tell that this guy must have been living an excessive life recently. With his demon body and demigod strength, his body is about to collapse.
But it's no wonder, who allowed him to have so many beauties from Milo Sect and so many succubi from the abyss around him
Both hands hold a gold box. Lin Qi appeared with an extremely strange expression on his face. A group of nobles and courtiers from the Longshan Empire looked at him at the same time. Yun and Blackbeard both had happy smiles on their faces, except for one marquis who was originally from the Vias Commercial Federation without eyes. The old man who now serves as the deputy tax supervisor in the Longshan Empire yelled at Lin Qi loudly and arrogantly.
"Who are you? How did you get here? Guard, guard! Arrest this guy with unknown origins!"
Alda, who was sitting on the throne and was drowsy, heard the scolding of the deputy tax superintendent. He lazily opened his eyes and suddenly saw Lin Qi. He suddenly became energetic and straightened his waist. He grabbed the wine bottle in the hand of the maid next to him and threw it at the deputy tax superintendent.
A group of heavily armed guards had already rushed in, but before they could figure out who they wanted to arrest, the dancing and shouting deputy tax superintendent had been knocked flying by a heavy wine bottle. A splash of dazzling blood spurted out from the back of his head. The poor old man was knocked away by Alda with a bottle of wine. He rolled his eyes and fainted.
Alda stood up and opened his hands to Lin Qi enthusiastically: "Ah ha, our Minister of the Navy is back. How are things on the Black Spirit Continent?"
Many courtiers and nobles who did not know Lin Qi in the hall looked at each other in silence. They suddenly realized that it seemed that the Longshan Empire had indeed established a navy department, but the navy minister seemed to have never been found. Could it be that this strange Easterner in front of me is the Navy Minister of the Longshan Empire
As a traditional maritime power with a long coastline, the former Vyas Commercial Federation's navy was far more powerful than its army. The Longshan Empire, which replaced the Vyas Commercial Federation, established a naval fleet that was several times larger than before. The Navy Minister of the Longshan Empire is undoubtedly a pivotal role, and his position in the imperial party ranks among the top three.
What these courtiers and nobles don't understand is why the Navy Minister of the Longshan Empire is an Oriental? And he was so strange that most of them didn't know Lin Qi at all.
Lin Qi solemnly held the gold box and took a few steps forward. Alda waved to the guards impatiently: "Pull this blind guy out! What a disgusting guy! Deprive him of it." All official positions, keep his title of nobility, and let him go home to retire! Damn it, a mere deputy tax inspector dares to be so rude to the Imperial Navy Minister!"
A group of guards immediately grabbed the unconscious former deputy tax superintendent of the Longshan Empire and pulled him out like a dead dog.
Standing in front of the throne away from Arda, Lin Qi nodded to Blackbeard and Yun, and then sighed deeply: "Your Majesty, my dear cousin, I must inform you of some not-so-good news. .”
Alda, Blackbeard, Yun, and the members of the Silver Iris family, who had received Lin Qi's notice a long time ago, had already made plans in their minds, and had made all preparations, all showed a smile of reminiscence, Then they stopped smiling at the same time and put on the same sad expression as Lin Qi.
"What happened?" Alda's voice was calm, his eyes were firm, and he looked at Lin Qi seriously. At this moment, he acted like a truly young and promising monarch, as strong and determined as An indestructible mountain.
As for the nobles who didn't know who Lin Qi was, they were dumbfounded. Their eyes widened in surprise, and they looked at Alda in confusion, and then looked at Lin Qi. This Imperial Navy Minister who suddenly appeared is actually Alda's cousin? But Alda has the characteristics of a typical Western continental citizen, and Lin Qi is undoubtedly an Oriental. How could they be cousins
Lin Qi glanced at the courtiers and shouted sternly: "Quiet! Silence! Do you still look like ministers of the Longshan Empire? Do you still have the consciousness of being a noble? As a noble, you must remain calm at all times, otherwise How can I safely leave such a huge empire to you to manage? Please be quiet!"
The faces of the courtiers and nobles became more and more weird. They closed their mouths at the same time and stared at Lin Qi silently and blankly like a quail that was struck by lightning. What does this mean? How could Lin Qi trust such a huge empire to be managed by them
This should be said by the guy sitting on the throne, right
With a slight cough, Lin Qi opened the gold box in his hand, revealing two ancient and colorful space rings inside. He lowered his head sadly and whispered: "Very unfortunate news. Mr. Wan En Longshan, the Imperial Foreign Minister, the Imperial Palace Manager, and has served the family loyally for nearly a thousand years, has died in the Black Spirit Continent."
"The evil orcs attacked him, and then, a terrifying force that we couldn't understand destroyed everything. Only the two magic rings on his body were preserved!" Lin Qi sobbed sadly: "For the empire, This is really unfortunate.”
Alda's body twitched violently, he raised his hands, and then wailed in pain: "Great God, this is so, so, so unfortunate! Old Wan'en, why did you abandon me like this? You Why is it just like this, just like this..."
Seeing Alda, who had superb acting skills, crying bitterly, Lin Qi handed the gold box to Yun who was standing aside, and then said calmly: "In addition, there is another one that may not be very good for you, but for me That said, it’s not a bad thing.”
Alda twitched a few times. He wiped the snot and tears from his face and looked at Lin Qi blankly: "What happened? Is there anything more unfortunate than old Wan'en abandoning me? Without him, Wan En, I don’t even want the throne anymore. In fact, I don’t want to be an emperor at all. This is all because old Wan En forced me to do so!”
There was an uproar in the main hall, and the courtiers of the Longshan Empire, except for a handful of people who had already known this in their hearts, all started shouting at the same time. The emperor of an empire, and he has no legal heir, not even a brother. He suddenly talks about wanting to give up the throne. This is simply the end of the empire! (To be continued.)
