Dominate the Treacherous Realm
Chapter 652
Salhi II wore a dress adorned with medals, a red cloak, and a cane with a bear head gold ornament in his left hand. Without letting anyone support him, he strode onto the red carpet and nodded his gratitude to the citizens who were stopped by the police at the cordon. Following him were the Stuarts with different expressions in their uniform gray cloaks, followed by other nobles and officials in the delegation.
Similarly, the silver-haired Queen Isabella did not let anyone support her, leading the royal family members and local nobles behind her to greet her.
Behind the queen, Jenkins looked at Salot Stuart behind Salhi II in surprise. His left arm was amputated in the Snow Festival accident, and Jenkins asserted that he had lost his heirship. When Luen saw the prince not long ago, his left arm had been vacant, but at this time the sleeve on the left was actually not empty.
"Wooden prosthesis?"
He saw the part outside the cuff clearly, but then looked at Sarhi II in confusion. Since Salot was brought in, it meant that he believed that Salot was still eligible for succession. In other words, the king didn't seem to mind that his heir was missing an arm.
Chapter 1615 The first thousand five hundred and ninety
"Salute to you, guardian of Fedictelli."
The two kings walked towards each other at almost the same speed, looking at each other as they walked. When there were still ten feet away, Salhi II took the lead to say respectfully, using Hampavo, and the translator behind the queen immediately translated it in her ear.
Salhi II was younger than Queen Isabella of Fedictelli. As a junior, he should be the first to say hello.
"It's nice to meet you, the lion of the Northland, you and your grandfather look so alike~"
The silver-haired, round-faced old man was full of smiles, and he took off his gloves as he spoke, and the same was true for Sarhi II. A few seconds later, the two hands were held together, and then he looked at the densely packed cameras on the side of the red carpet at the same time.
The flashing light that broke out afterwards made the entire auditorium turn white in an instant. This scene will probably be remembered for hundreds of years.
The two kings met and then there was a simple greeting, but they did not leave immediately. In the auditorium, Sarhi II and Queen Isabella sat together, witnessed by the people, reporters and aristocratic officials of the two countries. In a simple meeting, the two expressed their views on the current situation on the mainland, reiterated their respective claims on bordering territories, and jointly recalled the friendly exchanges between the two countries in the past...
In short, they are all very boring official content. Jenkins lost interest when he heard half of it. He raised his head to look at the royal children behind Salhi II, just to see Dolores, who was full of excitement, peering over on tiptoes.
Her Royal Highness caught Jenkins's sight at once, winked at her playfully, and was then reminded by her elder sister to be polite. Jenkins smiled and nodded as a response, some looking forward to the reunion with Dolores and Alexia.
Actually, as Queen Isabella, there is no need to come here to meet Sarhi II in person. Both are kings, and she is still very old, even if she is waiting in the Cold Spring Palace, it is understandable to send only representatives and cronies.
There is only one reason for coming in person, and that is, before the Chesland delegation arrives, to create an illusion of a close relationship between his country and the North, and to show his friendship and expectations to the king of the North.
Anyway, the attitude of the northern kingdom of Hampawo was very important during the war between the Kingdom of Fidiktelli and the Kingdom of Cheslan.
After a brief but exceptionally grand welcome ceremony, amidst the sound of the Royal Orchestra, the convoy returned to the city with a group of people. Sarhi II and Queen Isabella shared a carriage, while the members of the two royal families rode separately. Jenkins sat with Miss Windsor and Miss Capet, and returned to the city again through a rocky and bumpy journey.
Considering the stress of the Northland group of people and boats, the formal banquet will be held tomorrow evening. Therefore, after returning to the city, I just arranged the hotel where the Northland delegation stayed, and today's affairs are temporarily over.
After Jenkins bid farewell to Miss Capet who seemed to have something to say, and Miss Windsor who was a little tired, he excitedly rushed to the place where the North Royal House was arranged with the cat.
That is the royal manor near Cold Spring Palace. It was carefully cleaned and organized a week before the delegation arrived. This also proves that Her Majesty the Queen knew the size of the delegation.
There were guards at the entrance of the manor, but Jenkins didn't care, and a little lie was allowed to enter. There are guards and escorts on patrol inside the manor, as well as visitors who come to visit in a hurry, but Jenkins does not care. The flower beds, plants and fences in the courtyard provide him with the best cover.
As for the people walking in the manor building, they couldn’t see Jenkins either, because Jenkins climbed directly from the back wall to the third floor, and then knocked on the glass in Dolores’ room-he could see the aura directly, confirming The position of the princess is a simple matter.
"Oh, Alexia~"
Julia helped open the window. Jenkins dexterously jumped into the room, then opened his arms and hugged Alexia who was sitting at the desk.
"What are you doing so excited? We only met two days ago."
The short lady said with a happy smile. She wore a brown short coat with decorative buttons on the white lady's pleated-sleeved shirt. This made her look extraordinarily energetic, not because of the long distance. Feeling tired from traveling.
"This is not the same, how long has it been since I hugged you in the territory of Fidicteli?"
He smiled and looked at his beloved girl, and asked again.
"You have never embraced my body in this land."
The short lady said playfully, all the people hugging here before were projections.
Behind the two of them, Julia, who just closed the window and tightened the curtains, turned around and saw her princess and Jenkins' cat sitting on the bed. The faces of each cat were exactly the same.
For the arrival of Alexia and Dolores, Jenkins was so excited and excited that they completely forgot the fact that they would definitely meet Hathaway Britney.
ended the hug with Alexia, and he happily talked about his plans for the last few days. Jenkins intends to accompany the girls to take a serious stroll in Berduran. Although he is not a local, he knows that the ladies of the North will be coming, but he has actually made preparations. This is probably the most exciting recently. Things.
"Travel matters can be discussed later, and there are more important things now. The steam airship has landed several times on the way. We learned from the newspaper that your queen has officially recognized the relationship between the royal family and your family? "
Alexia is still so rational.
"Yes it is."
He then introduced what happened to Bel Dylan in just a few days, and explained his plans and preparations without reservation. Alexia was very happy that Jenkins was able to make up his mind, and Dolores and Julia also felt that this was the right choice.
As for the treasure outside Berduran, Dolores said that it could mobilize enough manpower to participate in the discovery, and thought it was a good thing to cooperate with the local nobles, that is, Miss Windsor.
"We are not locals after all. We must be hindered by many obstacles if we want to support your actions. But is that Miss Windsor really credible?"
Dolores asked.
"Very credible, no one can lie in front of me."
Jenkins said.
"Then what is your relationship with her?"
Alexia asked again.
"Friendship."
Jenkins can swear in the name of chocolate, this is absolutely true.
Chapter 1616 The first thousand five hundred and ninety-one chapters of the soul of ice
"It's just a friend relationship? If you really want to work with her, maybe it's good to make the relationship further."
The short lady casually suggested, seeing Jenkins look at her in confusion, chuckled and said:
"She must have similar thoughts. Simple oral agreements must be unreliable. You are worried that she will have other ideas. Why doesn't she worry that you will not value her when you have more supporters? That Miss Windsor Since in your description, she is the kind of decisive and courageous woman, she will definitely look for opportunities to break through the current relationship with you, even if she knows that you cannot marry her."
"This is politics."
Dolores added that she doesn't worry about the sudden emergence of women threatening her status, she knows that Jenkins is not essentially a carefree person.
"Meow~"
Chocolate thinks that young people are young people. The idea is too simple.
Jenkins didn't agree with them very much. He formed an alliance with Miss Windsor only because of the throne, and didn't think too much about the lady. But that is also something for the future. The top priority now is to arrange a meeting between Dolores and her party and Miss Windsor to formally confirm the cooperation. This is also because Jenkins is not the kind of person who is good at planning large-scale events or long-term plans, so he is also happy that someone can help him to accomplish those things.
As he said this to the girls, he suddenly took out his monocle, then turned to look at Dolores. Dolores faced the strange line of sight that seemed to be able to penetrate people's clothes. Instead, she straightened her chest and faced Jenkins. Unfortunately, Jenkins' glasses did not have a perspective function.
On Dolores’ chest, Jenkins saw a bunch of blue slender flames. It was obviously much larger than the black flame in Miss Windsor's chest, which further proved that Miss Windsor was indeed the one who bred the soul of darkness.
"The Soul of Ice is indeed on Dolores. There can be no one else except her."
He thought of putting away his glasses, and facing the doubtful eyes of the ladies, he thought about it and said about the king's soul. Upon hearing this, Dolores immediately stated that he could give the ice soul to Jenkins now, but Jenkins stopped it:
"The soul of the king represents the qualification to be a king. Although only the extremely four king souls are useful, the [Uncrowned King] corresponds to the emperor of all human beings, and a single soul may indicate that you will become the king of a kingdom."
Jenkins patted Dolores on the shoulder:
"Don't worry about it now, just keep this ice soul. When you reach the throne, I have also found the other three king souls, and it will not be too late to give it to me."
Alexia also agrees with Jenkins. She also saw legends related to the savior when she was looking for the difference engine information on the tower, so she believed that it is best to go with the flow, and it is best not to consciously put the savior's emblem. Pass each other.
After a while, Dolores has to tidy up the room and go to Sarhi II to receive training with her brothers and sisters. Alexia wants to return to the city of Rouen to see the little princess Ajelena Stuya. Is it a good job to handle government affairs according to their arrangements?
Jenkins wanted to leave first and come back early tomorrow morning. But before everyone said goodbye, the door of Dolores' room was knocked. When the owner of the useless room asked who was outside, the voice of the eldest princess Yanni Stuart came in.
Jenkins frowned and turned to look for a hiding place, and then took a fancy to the closet in the corner. Alexia gestured to Jenkins to wait. After thinking for a while, she signaled Julia to open the door directly.
Julia looked at Dolores, who trusted her teacher so she nodded and asked her to follow suit. When opening the door, the beautiful maid deliberately controlled not to open the door wide, so that only those standing at the door could see that there was a man inside, and those a little further away could only see the door.
"Oh?"
The eldest princess of the Stuart family raised her eyebrows and said, recognizing Jenkins at a glance. But she didn't scream or show a surprised expression. Instead, she stepped into the door. Julia immediately closed the door and blocked the servants and servants of the princess.
Alexia inadvertently dropped a mute spell to ensure that the conversation in the room would not be heard by outsiders.
"Jenkins Williams? No, you should be called Jenkins Middleton now."
She didn't care about her sister's vigilant gaze, and went straight to Jenkins and stretched out her hand. It was not a handshake gesture, but a kiss gesture.
Jenkins squinted at Dolores, and Dolores immediately stepped forward, grabbing her elder sister's hand and shaking it vigorously. After Jenkins saw her let go, Her Royal Highness Yanni Stuart had a visible red mark on her hand.
"My name is Jenkins Williams."
He emphasized that the whole family had no idea of changing their surnames, and Queen Isabella did not mention this.
"Okay, but I didn't expect you to appear directly in my immature sister's room."
The princess once again grabbed Dolores’s hand:
"I thought you would come back tomorrow, but I still underestimated your relationship."
"Okay, sister, what are you going to do?"
Dolores pulled her hand out impatiently:
"If there is nothing else, I suggest you go to the kitchen and ask for some hot tea, and then take a book to your room to rest."
"Of course there is something..."
She looked at Jenkins:
"I want to ally with you, yes, that's it."
Yanni Stuart used to cooperate with Tree House in the rumors, in fact, this is also true. It was only after the Luen riots, that is, after her father was seriously injured, that she understood the dangers of that organization, and told the church everything she knew, which to a certain extent helped the church master the further progress of [Tree House] Intelligence and eradicate their power in Luen.
The church did not embarrass her, nor did the eldest princess give up the fight for the throne because she lost the support of the tree house. It's just that during Jenkins's stay in Ruen, the princess has been avoiding confrontation with Dolores, so apart from seeing her several times at the banquet, this woman's sense of existence in Jenkins's eyes is quite low.
But I have to say that the children of the Stuart family are not to be underestimated. The eldest princess has never given up on the throne, even if the biggest obstacle is blocked in front of her brother, she has not given up. Therefore, she wanted to find some partners to fight against the prince together, and she was fond of Dolores, who was praised by King Salhi II recently for the financial reform of the kingdom.
"So what's the matter with your eldest brother? His arm... I thought your father had given up on him. I remember when I was still in Luen, Salot was a little depressed, even very depressed. It's hard to meet him in social situations."
Jenkins then remembered that there was still this doubt.
"Father and elder brother talked about it in detail, and roughly meant that as long as you have the ability, it doesn't matter if you lose your left arm."
Yanni Stuart paused, obviously there was something to say, but in the end she did not comment on her father's opinion.
"But in short, there is a big brother blocking him, I am definitely not better than him, how about it, do you accept my proposal?"
Chapter 1617 Chapter 1592 The Gunner Outside the Door
From the bright side, Dolores has a great advantage in the throne fight, but she is also controlled by her elder brother because of her childhood. Now that the members of the royal family have all left Roen with the king, this is a very good opportunity, especially the temporary alliance with Dolores, which means that she can also draw on the power of the "prince" of this country, Yanni Stuart Quite optimistic about Jenkins.
The alliance she wanted was of course not preparing for an assassination plan together. This was the most stupid act. Yanni Stuart knew that her father's body could not last too long. This trip will be the last show of the Stuarts. Own opportunity.
Alexia showed great interest in this kind of cooperation, while Jenkins remained silent all the way, standing at the window listening to the women discussing politics. He held the cat in his arms and remembered what he had experienced this week when he came to Bel Dylan.
This has become a political whirlpool, attracting more catchers and schools of fish. Everything he experienced will profoundly affect history. The final political event of the Eighteenth Century must be what was happening at this time.
But this tragicomedy has not yet reached its climax, because the third protagonist of the play, the king from Turin, is still on the way.
By the time I bid farewell to the master servants of Alexia and Dolores, the night was already very deep. Taking into account Dolores’ feelings, Jenkins did not stay at Alixia’s, but instead planned to return to his house to rest.
Although this is still a night away, Jenkins does not worry about encountering dangerous things. Now Bel Dylan's hidden dangers have basically been wiped out, and the murder against him is unlikely to happen at this time, because no one knows that he has gone to the residence of the northern royal family.
went all the way back to his house safely, planning to read the divination notes that the ancient fortune-telling girl gave him for a while, and then go to bed and sleep.
sat at the desk in the study room and lit the gas lamp, branded the text from the [Book of Memories] on the blank notebook, erected the notebook and read the beautiful text on it carefully. After a while, a black shadow rose from the back of the notebook. Jenkins looked up and watched his cat stand on two legs, lying on the cover of the notebook, which was almost vertical, and exposing his head and small paws above the notebook.
"Meow~"
It greeted Jenkins, and then slapped the notebook with its paw.
"I'll play with you later, I'm reading a book."
said, "pick" the cat from the notebook and put it on his lap. The chocolate was a bit dissatisfied, but was quickly suppressed by Jenkins's left hand.
When the time came to eleven o'clock, he planned to end this tiring day and go to bed. When I was brushing my teeth in the bathroom in my pajamas, I suddenly heard a knock on the door.
Bel Dylan’s house is an apartment-style building facing the street. It does not have its own garden or yard. The street is outside the door, so there is no way of shouting the door by pulling the bell.
"Who is it so late?"
He thought suspiciously, squinting his eyes and rushing downstairs, but he didn't see aura.
"Strange."
put down the water cup and hugged the cat and came to the bedroom window. He moved his fingers against the wall and looked down through the gap between the curtains. Under the dim street lamp, a man with a black hat was standing next to the door.
