A few days later, Hariand finally saw Richard and at the same time received an invitation from him to travel to the Osa Peninsula.

Although he was surprised at this invitation, Hariand remembered what he had heard from passers-by a few days ago about the war that broke out on the Osa Peninsula, and he agreed with it.

"Your Majesty," he said politely, "I heard that war broke out on the Osa Peninsula. If your country needs our military's assistance, for the sake of the friendship between the two countries, we can join the war at any time."

Richard almost laughed when he heard the words. He thought that Hariand might have misunderstood something, and said: "General Hariand, the Osa Rebels on the Osa Peninsula have been suppressed by our army, please don't worry."

"This trip to Ossa Peninsula is just a tour, and relax by the way. And I invite you to go with me because I want General Hariand to know more about our country."

"So that's it." Hariand nodded, but couldn't help but spit in his heart. As soon as the war on the Osa Peninsula ended, he dared to go there to play. If he was attacked by a hostile force, it would not be finished. .

Of course, he only dared to keep this complaint in his heart.

…

On May 23, after several days of preparation, Richard's family and the Romans headed by Harand left Vienna, escorted by the Janissaries in a carriage, and drove towards Paisikia Port. As the most important port from the Vadasiya Peninsula to the Osa Peninsula, Paisikia Port not only stationed a garrison group, but also stockpiled several warehouses of military supplies, and a large number of berths were also anchored in a large military port independent of the trading port. The transport ship can transport the local army to the opposite shore in a short time at any time to support the Osa battlefield.

In order to protect Richard's safety, the two Karak battleships and several Hawke gunboats that had been launched shortly afterwards were transferred to form an **** fleet. Although the prestige of the imperial navy deterred the country, the mad pirates could not keep the imperial imperial family from being held hostage to win wealth, so such caution is still useful.

Hariand originally wanted to transfer the Roman navy **** he brought, but it took a long time for the navy to bypass the Valdasia Peninsula and enter the Osa Sea. When the navy arrived, they would have landed long ago, so He also planned to mobilize the navy.

The next day, the fleet sailed into the port of Lyktos.

This is the first time Richard has set foot on the land of the Ossa Peninsula. The port of Lyktos has no traces of shelling nine years ago, and a brand new stone building stands in the port area with a new look. The port was cleared by the army because of Richard’s arrival. No civilians could approach it. Not only the port area, but also the city of Lyktos was forced to clear the site. Every household was told that they could only stay at home if there were people. Leaving home without authorization, not only will he go to jail, but the whole family will be implicated.

The brutality of the imperial army has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The civilians did not dare to question their words. They all stayed at home obediently, while holding the most naughty children away from their sight. They knew very well that it was impossible for their own children to be obedient. Those who stay at home will have nowhere to cry if the whole family has an accident because of a bear kid.

In the small palace in the city of Luctos, Richard met with Osama, the king of the city-state. Nine years later, the boy who used to be ignorant and pushed to the throne has become a young and strong boy. , The glory of his ancestors made him unwilling to become the puppet of the empire. He wanted to resist all this, but he was powerless. Because the court of the Kingdom of Lyctus had people from the empire everywhere, and the eyes of the empire were always watching this poor king. Exaggeratedly speaking, as long as Richard wants to know, he can get it after snoring several times at night.

King Osama knew his situation very well. He looked at the Holy Roman Emperor who could almost be his father in front of him. His face was full of respect, but there was a trace of imperceptible hatred in his eyes, and he said respectfully: "Your Majesty the Great Emperor. , It is our honor to be able to visit the city of Lyktos."

"King Osama, I have seen your loyalty to the empire over the past nine years." Richard said lightly. The young king knew what he thought of him clearly, but he did not intend to deal with him because he If nothing is done, if you deal with it hastily, it will cause the Luctus people to panic.

"It is the greatest honor to be a vassal of the empire!" King Osama said respectfully, with a flattering tone, so that Harand and others beside Richard listened with a strange look on their faces.

"Pouch."

A slight chuckle came from the crowd, and the air instantly solidified. Everyone turned their eyes to the place where the sound was made. It turned out to be Princess Elizabeth, who was being led by Stephanie. Seeing everyone staring at her, the little princess immediately realized her own. Wrong, blushing and lowered his head.

Being laughed at by such a small girl made King Osama's face a little uncontrollable. Even if he deliberately exercised his city, he was still a teenager. He forcibly held back his anger, with an unnatural face on his face. With a smile, he said: "His Royal Highness is so beautiful, even the most beautiful woman in Luctus is less than one ten thousandth of her."

"That's natural." Although he knew it was a rainbow fart, Richard, as a daughter slave, still listened very comfortably. He triumphantly said: "My princess is the most beautiful person in the entire empire."

"Yes, yes, you are right, I am narrow-sighted." Usama nodded repeatedly and agreed.

He looked at Elizabeth, who was like a porcelain doll at the same time. Even though she had just made him foolish, Osama was surprised by Elizabeth’s beauty. He rolled his eyes and suddenly thought of a strategy, he was bold. Asked indifferently: "Your Majesty, do you know if your Royal Highness has someone you like?"

"No, what's the matter?" Richard replied looking at him strangely.

"The beauty of the princess made me fall into it as soon as I saw her. Your Majesty, please allow me to express my love to Princess Elizabeth. I am willing to marry Princess Elizabeth as my queen with the Kingdom of Luctus."

"???"

Elizabeth, who was hiding behind Stephanie, suddenly widened her eyes and looked at Usama inconceivably. How could she not understand the meaning of Usama’s words, not to mention that she is only nine years old this year, but living in the court is better than girls of the same age. Even more precocious, but usually living with parents, behaved neatly and purely.

"I disagree!"

Without waiting for her to object, Richard’s gloomy voice suddenly exploded in everyone’s ears. Osama stepped back and looked at Richard in horror. He didn’t expect Richard to have Such a big reaction.
