Black Iron Crown

The matter has come to this point, and it can’t be changed. Leiner simply didn’t pass the news to the imperial capital. He felt that the Arshan tribe might not dare to have a large-scale conflict with the empire. After all, although the empire was weak, it was still a thin camel than a horse big.

An Arshan tribe is not enough to defeat such a revived empire.

In the imperial capital at this time, the turmoil caused by the young emperor's removal of Count Redmara was about to end, and now is the time to reap the fruits of victory.

There are so many vacancies, and everyone is working hard to find the official position they want.

These spies arranged by Reiner in the imperial capital are no exception. Climbing to a higher position can better collect information, and becoming an official can also enjoy better treatment. When His Majesty the Grand Duke succeeds in his career, he can still be judged for his meritorious service. Why not do it for a reward.

The previous spy in charge of personnel affairs managed to become one of several managers in charge of personnel affairs after some operations. This position is not particularly prominent in the imperial capital, but it is definitely considered a right.

Staying in this position, Reiner's intelligence network will be much safer in the imperial capital. Except for him, the rest of the people are also climbing on their own promotion routes.

The land controlled by the imperial family is so large that it is simply unrealistic to rely on the past pure aristocratic politics to manage it. Therefore, various officials came into being, and the old emperor also set up many official positions to determine the responsibilities of each official.

While these people are working hard to climb up, the imperial capital is also busy welcoming the Alshan Mission.

The news that Prince Liepei Wuxun was in the mission had already been conveyed to the imperial capital early. In order to show that he attached great importance to him, the little emperor spent a lot of money to order people to arrange it.

The current little emperor is not short of money. After the removal of Count Redmara, he did not hold back the slightest bit. Count Redmara's territory and property all became his pocket.

Although the distant and near relatives of Earl Redmara wanted to inherit those things through blood, they did not dare to offend the little emperor, so they had no choice but to give up.

Earl Redmara has been in charge of the empire for such a long time. Naturally, his family has a lot of money. After his family property is confiscated, the little emperor can spend money lavishly for at least five years.

In addition, although the political turmoil in the imperial capital is over, the upstarts scattered everywhere still need to win over. The little emperor believes that they have also heard about what happened in the imperial capital.

But up to now, they haven't made any statement to explain their attitude. If they were really willing to help the Earl of Redmara, they would have stood up a long time ago, and they will wait for three or four months?

These upstarts have long been waiting for the little emperor to summon them. Although they were all supporters of Count Redmara in the past, now that Count Redmara is dead, they are willing to support the little emperor in exchange for benefits.

In their view, although the little emperor resolutely removed Count Redmara, he was still just a child after all. They didn't take the little emperor seriously. To die, and to continue to be loyal to him, is already a great compromise.

Therefore, they didn't feel that after the death of Earl Redmara, the little emperor would cancel their interests, and they didn't even think about it.

Prince Liepei Wuxun arrived in the imperial capital soon, and the little emperor personally welcomed Prince Liepeiwuxun in order to show his sincerity.

And a grand banquet was held for him.

At the same time, the upstarts scattered all over the place also came to the imperial capital with a group of followers.

In addition to them, a small number of lords in the south and all the nobles in the west also gathered in the imperial capital.

Most of the lords in the south are hostile to the royal family. Although they still maintain their obedience to the empire on the surface, they have actually stopped obeying the royal family's orders.

Since the last rebellion was quelled by Leiner and the royal lords, they stopped annuity, the most collapsed symbol of suzerain-vassal relationship under the feudal system.

And the royal family under the leadership of the Earl of Redmara in the early days was also very sensible and never recruited them to fight.

However, in the final analysis, there are still a small number of southern lords who do not want to bear the name of disloyalty, so they came to the imperial capital with their own strength. After all, they were still the vassals of the little emperor in name in the early days.

The arrival of the lords of the western region seemed logical. Although they had set off a rebellion led by the nobles in the south, they had always been very submissive after being quelled.

Not only is the annuity paid on time, but it also responds to various calls from the royal family...

Except for military service!

The land of the lords in the western region is not fertile, and the business atmosphere is not strong. They don't have the mountainous piles of grain like the northern region, and they don't have the commercial torrent like flowing water in the south.

They could only guard the barren land to maintain their rule, and the Bazaran Kingdom invaded them a few years ago, which made them even more frightened.

The lords of the western region are relatively united, but even if all of them are united, they are not even the opponents of the royal family that is currently in a weakened state.

The royal family had already weakened to the point where the south dared to ignore it, and the Grand Duchy in the north dared to provoke. However, if the little emperor wanted to destroy the lords in the west, it would be very easy.

The upstarts and the rest of the lords gathered in the meeting hall of the Tesca Palace, reconfirming the relationship with the little emperor as suzerain and vassal.

At the same time, the little emperor welcomed the arrival of Prince Lie Peiwu Xun.

The little emperor picked up the wine glass, and with a smile on his face, he said loudly, "Let's toast to the arrival of Prince Repe Wuxun! To the alliance between the two countries!"

The spy in charge of personnel affairs under Reiner's command, Sir Dylan, is among these people. He has already climbed to a relatively high position. As an important courtier, he is qualified to participate in such a banquet.

He also raised his wine glass and cheered among the crowd, but the eyes he looked at the little emperor and Prince Lie Peiwu Xun were meaningful.

The banquet had no real significance, it was nothing more than a welcome to Prince Repewuxun and other envoys from the Arshan Department.

After the little emperor arranged a room for Prince Liepei Wuxun, he began to receive the upstarts one by one, and then the lord of the western region.

As for the nobles in the south, in the eyes of the little emperor, they are a group of rebellious officials and thieves. They set off several rebellions and brought huge losses to the royal family. in the counterinsurgency war.

Such a group of capricious people, a group of people who don't know what loyal ministers are, will need to be eliminated sooner or later.

However, just when the little emperor was planning to win over the upstarts and the lords of the Western Region, Prince Liepei Wuxun felt a little dissatisfied.

It has been seven or eight days since he arrived in the emperor with the mission, and he has never met him at all except for the welcome banquet held by the little emperor on the first day.
