Black Iron Crown

Rainer attended the funeral in full dress, expressing his sorrow for the death of His Majesty the Emperor on behalf of the entire Northern Territory.

The funeral was not completely over until the emperor was put into the catacombs of the Tesca Palace.

But while the funeral is over, some other implied politics are just beginning.

This is a rare opportunity. The lords of the entire empire are gathered in the imperial capital, and activities such as forming gangs are happening all the time.

"Count Reiner, we finally meet again!" After the show ended, Earl Redmara walked to Reiner's side and greeted him with a smile on his face.

There was respect in the words, and he placed his position very well, knowing that Reiner was also a respected earl at this moment, not the little baron back then.

Reiner smiled, and complimented casually: "Yeah, it's been a long time since I haven't seen you, and you still look so good!"

"Hehe..." Earl Redmara smiled and said, "You are still proud of your spring breeze! Such a large territory in the northern border is in your pocket, and now you are the number one lord of the empire!"

Reiner frowned slightly when he heard the words. He had a very good impression of the Earl of Redmara at the beginning, but later, through Waxie's description, Reiner secretly had a little bit of it in his heart. vigilance.

Although I don't completely believe what Waxie said, I still have some doubts.

Now when I listen to Earl Redmara's words, I find it harsh.

Reiner said without smiling: "What kind of lord am I? I'm Earl Redmara, but you are a celebrity around Her Majesty the Queen! Your Highness the Crown Prince is not yet an adult, so you need to support my distant brother a lot in the future." point!"

Reiner spoke to Earl Redmara with thorns in his words, but the other party seemed not to notice, and continued to smile and said: "Of course, after all, I am a loyal vassal of the Merland family! If I want to Your cooperation is still needed to support His Highness the Crown Prince, after all, the current situation in the empire is precarious, without your and my strength it would not be possible!"

Earl Redmara said to Reiner with a smile.

"How could it be? Aren't the Grand Duke Mabula and Earl Wesley still there? I believe that with their rebellion, the rebellion can be quelled!" Reiner frowned, and Earl Redmara was clearly trying to win him over.

But what is the need to set up a time to win over yourself? I am also a royalist, so there is no need for it!

"I don't think so!" Unexpectedly, after listening to Reiner's words, Earl Redmara said: "Although Earl Wesley and Grand Duke Marbula are members of the royal family,

But after all, they all have the right to inherit the empire, if they have any other ideas... wouldn't it be..."

Earl Redmara did not continue speaking, but the meaning of his words was already very obvious.

Reiner squinted his eyes and glanced at Earl Redmara. To him, it doesn't matter as long as a member of the royal family becomes the emperor. May not know this.

Reiner frowned slightly, smiled and said haha, and then passed on the matter. Earl Redmara seemed to realize that his words were not appropriate, and deliberately moved on to the next topic.

"Understood!" Reiner narrowed his eyes subconsciously: "He wants to win me over to fight against Grand Duke Mabula!"

After chatting with Earl Redmara for a while, he found that Grand Duke Mabula was walking towards him. He looked rather haggard now, and the golden beard that he used to be proud of had become neglected and became Untidy.

"Is it Earl Rainer?" Grand Duke Mabra looked at the coat of arms on Rainer's clothes and asked tentatively.

Reiner nodded with a smile. He still had an impression of the Grand Duke Mabula. During the funeral, he stood beside the emperor's coffin: "Yes, you must be the Grand Duke Mabula, right?"

Redmara saw that the two seemed to have something to say, so he greeted casually and left.

After Earl Redmara left, Grand Duke Mabula chatted with Reiner.

"Count Rainer, you have done a great job in the northern border! You have made the situation of the royal family no longer so bad!" Grand Duke Mabula patted Rainer on the shoulder and praised.

Reiner nodded with a smile, he knew it was just a small talk.

For his uncle's relative, Reiner always had a good impression in his heart, and he gave people a sense of integrity inexplicably.

Although Reiner knew that he could not be fooled by his appearance, in the final analysis he still trusted Grand Duke Mabula because of his royal status.

Waxey had already made him a little wary of telling Count Reinered Mara that he had a problem before.

Coupled with what the other party said just now, the more Leiner thought about it, the more he felt that there was some deliberate element in it. It seemed that Leiner was trying to separate the two when they had nothing to do with each other. Earl Redmara inevitably had some doubts.

After all, the royalist party now has a common goal, and he is also a member of the royalist party. Why would he do such a thing internally?

Wouldn't it be best to rally against those who would overthrow the Moreland family?

All of this made Lena full of doubts.

What's more, even if the crown prince is no longer the emperor, and Grand Duke Mabula is the emperor, it doesn't make much difference to them. Although the emperor has his own loyal loyalties, Grand Duke Mabula is his own younger brother after all.

Maybe things will get better when he really becomes emperor.

"What is there to beware of?" The more Reiner thought about it, the more suspicious it became.

"Earl Rainer?" Seeing that Rainer was in a daze, Grand Duke Mabula reminded him gently.

"Ahaha... After all, I am also a descendant of the Moland family, so I should do these things! Next, I will supply more steel for the lords to forge weapons and armor! Besides..."

Reiner looked at Mabula and said: "I am also willing to give you fifty sets of full-body chain armor for free! If you want to buy armor from me, I will try my best to give you some discounts!"

Now that he has doubts about Earl Redmara, Reiner's suspicions will become more and more serious, and he can't help but wonder what is going on with him.

After thinking about it like this, he distrusted Earl Redmara even more, and he felt that there must be something going on here.

Since he wants to deal with Grand Duke Mabula, he will help Grand Duke Mabra. Although he doesn't know what Earl Redmara wants to do, at least this will not go wrong!

After exchanging pleasantries with Grand Duke Mabula for a while, Reiner said goodbye to him and began to wander around.

"What's going on? There must be a reason, right?" Reiner's heart was like claws scratching his heart, and his curiosity was very serious.

He was extremely eager to know the reason why Red Mara wanted to fight against Grand Duke Mabula. After all, there was no unreasonable love, nor unreasonable hatred. They must have conflicts in some interests.

Thinking like this while walking, the Tesca Palace is very huge, after walking for a while, he found that he could not find the location of the room, and could only scurry around like a headless fly.

At this moment, he suddenly heard a faint groan beside his ear...

"Um... ah... hoo hoo... ouch... hurry up... try harder..."
