(It was only realized that the title of the supreme leader of the Republic of Cunha was the honorable governor rather than the speaker, so I revised the previous one.)

After all, the war with the Republic of Cunha did not break out. After taking the entire territory of Ulif, Richard left enough garrisons to return to the court, but this time he did not intend to confess new nobles, at least He will not entrust a new lord until the threats in the east are calmed down.

Soon after he led his corporals back to Nord City in the wind and snow, the envoy from the Kingdom of Ravana brought back Queen Stephanie’s reply, in which the beautiful young queen explained herself I missed Richard and agreed to Richard’s proposal, but because of the diplomacy between countries, Richard still needs to send a diplomatic officer to go through the diplomatic channel.

In addition, Stephanie mentioned in the letter that Richard could not help frowning. After she took control of the state, such a young and beautiful queen quickly attracted the coveting of neighboring countries, especially those unmarried monarchs. Or the country where the heir is unmarried, in just one month, unexpectedly welcomed nearly ten envoys who proposed marriage.

Richard's face was a little dark, how do you feel now, as if his beloved toy was about to be snatched away, although it has not been snatched away, it is enough to make him angry.

How can you do this? Obviously I came first!

Fortunately, Stephanie resolutely rejected their proposal, which made Richard very gratified. Even so, Richard felt a dangerous message in his heart. It’s no good to continue like this. He must let Stephanie become as soon as possible. His official wife, whether Stephanie or the Kingdom of Lavana, can only be his own, no one should try to get involved!

...

A few days later, the diplomats recruited by Richard finally arrived and came to Richard's court.

Unlike his colleagues in affairs, the young foreign affairs officer initially had two stars, and his subordinates were good, so that Richard, who had no expectations, suddenly lit up his eyes.

Ornus von Frank

Age: 24

Diplomat influence: ★★ (Even his wife often turns a deaf ear to this person)

Specialty:

Diplomatic talent: This person is born with the ability to persuade others calmly (influence +1

Be cautious: this person is trustworthy and will not reveal any secrets to others (influence +1)

...

Yo, you are also a nobleman surnamed Feng (crossed out)

Seeing that this person has a two-star initial level, Richard has no worries. Appointing him as the head of diplomatic affairs on the spot, there is no way, Richard’s looks the most suitable to become the head of diplomatic affairs, only this authentic. Diplomat, even if his rank is too low.

Therefore, before the newly appointed Director of Diplomacy of Ornus had time to get acquainted with other cabinet colleagues, Richard was ordered to represent the kingdom for the first time to officially envoy the Kingdom of Lavana and submit a marriage diplomacy to the royal family of Lavana. proposal.

As the diplomatic director of the two countries’ first official visit, Ornus’s pomp was naturally a little more magnificent. Richard sent twenty elite Imperial knights, fifty heavily armed sergeants, and thirty arquebuses. Set off with him, this posture is more to intimidate the robbers who may appear on the roadside.

Perhaps because of the war, even if peace has been restored to Leone now, thieves are still rampant in the area. From time to time, reports of thieves robbing caravans passing by are placed on the desks of Condela and Richard, Earl of León. Condra, who had just been sealed shortly, was unable to solve it.

Richard didn't want to hear the news that the diplomat he sent was kidnapped by the band of thieves. He couldn't afford to lose that face.

In addition to the **** army, there were three carriages. These three carriages were filled with gifts for Queen Stephanie. They contained gold and silver jewelry obtained from the homes of various nobles in the country, and some were bought from the chamber of commerce. Expensive silk cloth.

Then, under Richard’s watch, Ornus slowly drove out of the gate of Nord City with the convoy and drove to the west. The snow brought by the wind and snow made the heavy carriage a little strenuous, but it didn’t Can't stop their progress.

After sending out the Director-General of Foreign Affairs, Richard set out to deal with the government affairs that he had accumulated during his expedition. Although a large part of it was handled by his loyal cabinet members, it was finally necessary for Richard to take the king’s favor. Sign the name for confirmation.

In many government affairs, what Richard is most concerned about is the military report from the border garrison. According to the commander of the Second Army, Earl Charles, the scout cavalry sent by him found the enemy's army when entering the territory of the Republic of Cunha. It has been mobilized to build a garrison fortress on a small hill not far from the border.

Although the number of Cunha's main force was not as large as the Second Army under Charles's command, Charles' vigilance was greatly increased.

After thinking about it, Richard still wrote to Count Charles to continue to strengthen the defense of the garrison fortress~lightnovelpub.net~ and send more scout cavalry to investigate the army of the Kingdom of Cunha.

In addition to this incident, there is also news about the Kingdom of Ramirez. The power of Prince Gaia, who had been fighting against the Royal Government, was finally destroyed. Under the instigation of King Croft supported by Chad, Prince Gaia There was a split within the court of the renegade, and the traitor finally attacked the unsuspecting residence of Gaia, captured it, and escorted it to the capital of Yakik.

It is said that no matter how strong the fortress is, it is broken from the inside, not to mention that it is not strong Gaia. According to the news from the garrison in Kara Castle, Prince Gaia will not end well, as the loser of the throne struggle. , He will have his eyes gouged, his legs broken, and he will be locked in a dungeon for the rest of his miserable life.

In this regard, Richard has no more emotions besides sighing. The struggle within the royal family has always been like this. The loser will encounter all kinds of tragic endings, and the winner will have the last laugh.

It's just that I don't know if Richard's future sons will have this kind of fratricidal tragedy.

...

On January 25, 1112 in the continental calendar, Richard came to this world for the seventh year. Ornus, the head of foreign affairs who was sent to propose marriage in the Kingdom of Lavana, finally brought back good news. After the Queen and the cabinet discussed, he His marriage proposal was approved, and Richard could marry his beloved girl with only a grand wedding.

This will be a great wedding. One is the Queen of the Kingdom of Lavana, who is slowly rebuilding after the civil strife, and the other is the King of Winster, who has restored the Stuart dynasty and united the kingdom through two methods: tenderness and iron and blood. Once the two get married, the two traditional allies will be closely connected as never before.

What's more, King Richard of Winster also possesses the titles of Lord Protector of Ravana and Duke of Cuban.
