　　 One by one barrel-like buildings are emitting dots of lights, and thousands of lights, singing and dancing, are the best way to describe the capital of this empire.

　　 However, under this prosperous scene, what hides is the turbulent situation of the empire.

Business women don’t know how to hate their country, and they still sing the famous phrase “Hou Ting Hua” that has been circulated in the heavens for thousands of years. It’s not a violation of peace at all. The royal family’s situation is quite dangerous, and no one knows when. Which great nobleman will rise up against the rule of the royal family.

They are all ambitious. Although they had no ability to resist under the Redka Kingdom army led by the emperor, once the empire showed its weakness, they would pounce on like the most ferocious wolves. Chew away the last trace of flesh and blood of this young empire.

　　 No one knows when this situation will happen, but it is certain that as long as the condition of the current imperial emperor Winks Morland does not improve, then this kind of thing will inevitably happen.

At this time, outside the magnificent and magnificent palace, there was a group of dignified nobles waiting outside. They had been asked to urge them for several times. Only then did they get the queen and the Earl of Weasley, the Grand Duke of Mabra, and Count Redmara and other royalist nobles will receive their news in the palace hall.

　　 There are about forty or fifty of these people, and each of them is dressed in extremely gorgeous clothes. They are obviously high-ranking officials of this empire or great nobles who are loyal to the royal family.

　　 Under the guidance of the guards, a group of people walked quickly to the side hall.

It seems that the graceful and noble queen is holding the prince who is only four or five years old. Next to her sits the Earl Weasley in a luxurious robe. As the closest branch of the royal family, he has this huge territory and toughness. His military strength is one of the most important supporters of the royal family.

On the other side, the Earl of Redmara, who has inherited his father’s title for more than three years, is different from her father. He grew up under the imperial family since he was a child. He just inherited his father’s title. Become a staunch supporter of the royal family.

His territory is very close to the imperial fiefdom, just to the northwest of the imperial territory, bordering the imperial family. It is completely different from the ghost places in the north where birds do not shit. He has a huge amount of food production, and has a lot of He was driven by the regular army.

　　 And it goes without saying that Grand Duke Mabra, he is the younger brother of His Majesty the Emperor now. He has an extremely prosperous business and developed agricultural output, with a total area of ​​80,000 square kilometers.

This is a territory equivalent to one-tenth the size of the entire Northern Territory. Such a large territory means that his people will not be few. He has more than 2,500 regular troops including the vassal army. If It is not impossible to really launch a ruthless mobilization of seven to eight thousand troops including the serf signs.

　　 With the support of these powerful nobles, coupled with its incomparable strength, the royal family can steadily suppress the lords in the empire that cannot resist.

But now the emperor is seriously ill, coupled with the loss of some troops during the Eastern Campaign~www.wuxiahere.com~ The current royal family can be said to be quite weak, although recently a two-hundred-man well-equipped and powerful combat force has been formed. The heavy cavalry but still cannot effectively deter those ambitious nobles.

"Grand Duke Mabra! Your Majesty the Queen! Now the lords of the empire who keep saying that they are loyal to the empire have completely exposed their fangs!" An elderly nobleman stepped forward and said angrily: "Shen Buji from the south. The Duke has led his vassals and minions to seal up our southern trade road! Our goods cannot circulate to the south at all!"

　　 Countless commodities and wood can't come to the imperial capital, come to the royal territory and our territory to sell, and we can't go where to do business, now our financial situation is very bad! "

And after he finished speaking, another nobleman also spoke: "It's not just the south! The **** Count Zhebo in the north, that **** North Barbarian has integrated many lords who have been loyal to the royal family to the north. The road to the interior of the empire is completely blocked!"

"Although the Northern Territory does not have much benefit, we can't get all kinds of precious furs and woods from the Northern Territory, and most importantly, our source of iron materials has been completely locked by the **** northern barbarian. !"

　　The iron mines in the inland of the empire are so small that they are not enough to support our army expansion and armor building plans! Now even the iron pan we eat has melted and used to make weapons and equipment! But it's still a drop in the bucket! "

"If the damned Count Zhebo sells iron materials to forces that oppose the royal family, then we will become very passive in the following activities and struggles! We must pay attention to this matter! This is far better than the southern merchants. It’s even more important that the road is locked! It's about our army!"
