Chapter 678
"Well said--!!!"
Angut count, who had been depressed for a long time, stood up directly, roaring and waving Iron Fist: "Bye En has elected her new duke and told the Emperor of the Sky Palace that if he disagrees, we will stay with him to the end!"
"As a vassal of the empire, Byrne will naturally obey the Sky Palace. And the will of the Imperial Family of Desalion."
The proud Charlotte coldly snorted has an unabashedly sharp look: "But while Byrne offers his loyalty, he also invites the Empire Maintain the minimum respect for her, not the duke who is rudely accusing us like he is now!"
"The Byrne people have endured the humiliation for three generations, isn’t that enough to prove us Are you loyal?!"
The solemn Eckert count also took a step forward, looking towards the young duke, neither humble nor overbearing: "The round-table council is the ancient tradition of Byrne, and the election of a new duke is also worship Please don’t intervene in the Vault of Heaven without permission."
"Loren Torino was held by the Round Table Council. He accepted the testimony of the Holy Cross and all Knight’s allegiance, and drank the gold that represents the blessing of All Byrne. Cup-Until the end of his life, Byrne will only offer all his loyalty to him."
"Please be sure to tell your Majesty of the Sky Vault...The thing about the Byrne people, please leave it to worship."
" Benefactor!"
His voice fell, and countless excited shouts rang out in the hall immediately; the Knights, who had just been pressured to breathe, all smiled heartily. .
Even the eyes they looked towards Loren have become more pleasing and reverent from the beginning of doubt and worry.
The thing of the Byrne people is that they should be left to the Byrne people, and outsiders have no room to intervene.
Even the Sky Palace, even His Majesty the Emperor is the same!
In the middle of the hall, the indifferent Yuli Wiertz is still the same as before, not paying attention to the impassioned voices just now, and the noisy shouts right now; a pair of silver pupils are as sharp as a blade, look The steadily forward stared at Loren.
As he said, only one person in this hall is qualified to talk to him.
"Very well, I understand."
The clear and serious tone of the Duke of Allerman sounded again: "I will report this matter to the Vault of Heaven, and will tell you and Byrne’s reply on this matter was relayed verbatim to His Majesty Eckhardt II, who will be judged by His Majesty himself!"
"That's really great." Loren said neither humble nor arrogant. solemnly: "I believe that your Majesty will uphold the fair attitude during the imperial trial, so that the old town of Knight can regain the glory that belongs to us."
"I hope this matter can be in the Sky Palace and Byrne A proper ending is obtained between the believers of the Holy Cross and those loyal to the Empire not to kill each other, loss of life."
Yuli Wiertz nodded slightly: "Avoid meaningless civil wars. , Let this matter have a proper ending-this is also the purpose of my coming to Byrne as the imperial envoy."
As the meeting between the two officially began, the atmosphere began to gradually ease. The noise in the hall was gradually decreasing, and the Knights who were not noisy gradually became really attentive to listen to the conversation between the two.
"When the news of the Scarlet Blood Castle reached the Sky Vault, His Majesty Eckhart II was furious. He immediately ordered the Royal Council to investigate the matter and quickly came up with a solution. The method of the whole thing."
Duke Eileman looked around for a week, his eyes calm: "The document is lengthy, so I will briefly announce the final decision of the Vault of Heaven to you."
"First, as the first culprit, Gaspar Wien will be held accountable, his immediate family members will be demoted to serve in the western mines, the Wien family will be removed from the imperial nobility, the family crest will be destroyed, and no one will be allowed within three generations. Regain the title."
"But at the same time, anyone who provokes revenge for this matter will be severely punished by the laws of the Empire;
Ulrich Wiltz’s expression remained indifferent, and continued to open the mouth and said:
"Secondly, given the bad influence of the Blood Order incident, the Sky Vault will not appoint a new imperial governor. duchy, the thirteen generals of Byrne are back under the control of the Duke of Byrne."
"The tax rate of the empire, the number of recruits, the period of regular service, and the enforcement of duchy and the laws of the empire, temporarily Return to the state of the tenth generation."
"For detailed content, wait for the two parties to discuss one by one in the future before making a decision."
"Third, after discussion with Holy Cross Church , The church agreed to reduce a portion of the Mithril trade share and leave it to Byrne as compensation for this incident."
"The cost of repairing the cathedral shall be borne in full by Byrne. At the same time, Byrne Church must recommend one as soon as possible. A new bishop, let the Holy Cross believers in this land rediscover their faith."
"The above is the final decision of the Sky Vault." Yuli Wirtz raised his eyes and said his voice. Still serious: "This is also the best plan that the Empire has put forward after discussions to express its concern and sympathy for Byrne."
"It's reasonable." Loren nodded, this result also agrees with him. The thought was almost the same: "Byrne will also support the imperial verdict, and we will renew the church as soon as possible..."
"At the same time!" The young Duke's eyes suddenly raised, interrupting Loren's words:
"The Vault of Heaven has shown its sincerity to the utmost, and I would like to ask Byrne to make the most basic gesture to show his loyalty to the empire!"
His voice fell. The younger counts in front of the round table showed confused expressions like Knight in the hall, wondering what the Lord Duke was talking about.
On the contrary, several people headed by Eckert Count frowned and stared at the indifferent Duke Elman.
Expressing loyalty to the empire... The most loyal act to the empire is, of course, that the Duke himself leads his army to serve in the fortress of Duanjieshan!
Now Loren has just taken the throne, and he still has an unsteady foothold in Byrne Duchy; now let him go to the fortress of Duanjieshan to serve it is no different from house arrest-the sky palace does this, the purpose is still to want Take the opportunity to control Byrne.
If you agree, Loren Torino will stay in the fortress of Duojieshan for four or five years, completely unable to interfere with the Empire’s every move towards Byrne; and the fortress of the Dujieshan fortress is still Connold’s chassis. Only heaven knows what will happen.
But if you refuse, it is tantamount to issuing an ultimatum to the empire, so that Byrne, who is currently unprepared, will welcome the Battle Emperor country Legion and the 100,000 coalition forces of Elman, and completely break with the empire.
In the silent hall, all the eyes of Knight and count turned to Loren Torino.
Charlotte looked back slowly, with a solemn expression, and the silent black hair wizard reflected in her pupils, her hands clenched fists tightly.
"Very good!"
In the next second, Loren suddenly smiled and spoke, a sonorous voice echoed in the hall: "Since the empire has shown its sincerity, Naturally, Byrne should also fulfill its due obligations!"
"Knights of Byrne, you guys! Maybe you don’t know it yet, but right now, we are arguing over all of this. Now..." Loren took a deep breath and shouted in a deep voice:
"Our brethren in the east, Boy Duchy, brave hussars; they are using their flesh and blood to defend us against the centaur The iron cavalry, tens of thousands of alien hybrids, are ravaging the territory of the empire, wantonly massacring the herdsmen living in the big green sea!"
Speaking, Loren suddenly took out of his arms He wrote a letterhead and held it high above his head: "This is a letter of help written by Grand Duke Laszlo Varna of Boi. One hundred thousand centaurs have swept across the east of the Great Green Sea and are coming towards the hinterland of the empire!"
There was an uproar in the hall.
Everyone's expressions have changed-the impassioned Knights, the Knight lords from astonishment to surprise, Charlotte holding back a smile, and Ike with a calm smile on his face. Special count, Ayton Glenwell with a "snorted look"...
The lightly snorted Anget count patted his chest and stood behind.
The real request for help is still in his arms.
The indifferent Yuli Wiertz stared at Loren Torino, who was "generous statement", and pressed the corners of his mouth tightly with a solemn expression.
He has seen through this guy's thoughts.
"As the Duke of Byrne, I will accept the request of Grand Duke Laszlo Varna and lead all the Knights who are willing to follow me to the Great Green Sea, and follow the steps of our ancestors to bring these alien races The bastards rush back to their hometown!"
"Byrne will use iron and blood on the battlefield to prove his loyalty to the empire!"
