The guards who came afterwards began to clean the battlefield. Luo Jie took the reins and turned on his horse. "Chelsea" looked back and took a deep look at the huge pothole caused by the explosion. He urged the horse to catch up and walk alongside Luo Jie.
"Master Night Dire..."
"Are you nervous? But you should know that this day will come." Luo Jie turned sideways and threw a compass-like object to "Chelsea."
"Chelsea" was stunned: "This is Teigu [Dimensional Square·Shangri-La]?"
"Yes, you should be able to use it?"
As a space transfer imperial tool for the transfer of personnel and materials, [Dimensional Array·Shangri-La] is very universal and can be used by almost anyone who meets physical conditions.
"Chelsea" nodded and said in doubt: "But...I already have Teigu [Transformed Free Gaia Foundation]."
"I don't want you to replace the emperor, but temporarily lend you to use it...because next, I will send you to perform a very important task."
Luo Jie straightened up on the saddle, and cast his deep gaze to the far north.
...
One month later, the imperial capital.
After the daily regular court meeting, the empire's courtiers dispersed one after another, leaving only the little emperor and the "Ornest" minister next to the throne in the solemn hall.
The little emperor let out a sigh of relief, no longer his previous majesty and stability, sitting on the wide throne, looking bored at the colorful murals on the dome.
Only then can he show the side that belongs to a child every day.
"My minister, why do I have to sit here? Obviously you can manage this country well without me..."
"Your Majesty can no longer say such things. It is the duty of a courtier to share worries for your Majesty, but the rules that should be followed are still to be observed."
"Well, maybe this is the emperor."
The little emperor sighed. It was not that he did not have the consciousness of being the king of a country, but the nature of a child made him bored with this boring life day after day.
"By the way, the minister's son "Sheila" heard that he went to Taidong Province to collect taxes. That... 10 million gold coins, isn't it too much? After all, that is the fief of General "Esdes", "Esdes" is still on the front line to wipe out the remnants of An Ning Dao. Isn't it inappropriate for us to tax her fief in this way? "
The minister "Ornest" took a bite of the pig's elbow in his hand and smiled: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the minister has his own measure... But, even if the tax is difficult to collect for a while, Sheila should at least give it away. When the news came, he took the Digu [Dimensional Fangyuan·Shangri-La], and it was very fast to go back and forth. It is indeed a bit abnormal if there is no news for so long."
"The minister, are you too suspicious?" The little emperor waved his hand disapprovingly. "Over there is the territory of General Esdes, and it is impossible for the ordinary bandit to bring so many powerful entourages to the son of Shira. Hurt him."
"Your Majesty, what I am worried about is not the bandit, but the young man named Tazmi."
"Oh? Is that the lover of General Esdes?"
The little emperor has always been curious about the man who is said to be able to conquer the strongest female general in the empire, and he has seen him from a distance. He is very fond of being about his age.
"Your Majesty, this young man is not easy. Since he took over Taitung Province, the originally lifeless place has shown prosperity no less than that of a major town in the south of the Yangtze River in a short period of time. Recently, he even defended against pirates and rebels. The army has expanded to nearly 200,000..."
"The minister, do you mean that this Tazmi has a rebellious heart?" Although the little emperor doesn't interfere much in political affairs, he usually hears the rebellion here and there, and he is a little sensitive to similar disturbances. "This ...No? Didn't you say that General Esdes is loyal to the empire and asked me to boldly hand over the power to her."
"General Esdes is absolutely trustworthy, but what this young man named Tazmi has done has to be guarded against...I ordered Sheila to collect taxes this time, just to test that young man, if he If you cooperate with the empire to pay taxes in full, you will naturally be a loyal minister you can trust, but if you shirk or even resist, your Majesty will be ready to put down the rebellion."
Although the minister "Ornest" had a grandiose laugh on his face, deep anxiety arose in his heart.
What he was worried about was not the young man named "Tazmi", but the "Esdes" behind the opponent.
That cold woman is the biggest trump card in his hand. It is precisely because of the existence of this woman that he can restrain the loyal forces headed by General "Bude" in the court, and unscrupulously ravages this huge empire. .
If everything that "Tazmi" did was not out of his own intentions, but "Esdes" was manipulating behind...no! impossible! With the arrogance and arrogance of that woman, if she really wanted to rebel, she would not even bother to use this kind of conspiracy to cross the warehouse, she would only use her terrible strength to crush her all the way.

The two have worked together for so many years, "Ornest" really knows the woman's temperament too well.
"Get out! I want to see your majesty!"
After a brief noise, a man appeared at the main entrance of the hall.
The man was tall and burly, dressed in heavy blue armor, and the angular face under the short golden hair was not angry and prestigious. He was a great minister of the empire, the imperial envoy of the Emperor [Thor's Wrath·Yad Miller], and the guard. The army commanded the general "Bude",
The little emperor hurriedly sat down so as not to be accused of "losing the prince" by the old-fashioned courtier. With a guilty smile on his face, he said, "Hey, General Bud, you have retreated, why are you...well, Is there anything to report?"
"Bude" had a cold face, his eyes stopped for a while on the oily fat face of "Ornest", and he took out a note with a special mark from his arms.
"Your Majesty, there is news from the northern intelligence personnel that the Border Legion under Esters's rebellion!"
The little emperor hadn't reacted yet, but "Ornest" was so shocked that all the chicken legs in his hand fell.
"What? It's impossible! General Esders is so loyal to the Empire, how could he rebel?! This news must be fake! Go catch the person who sent the news and torture them! Maybe it was sent by the southern rebels. A spy who disrupts our military's mind!"
"Bude" turned a deaf ear to the clamor of "Ornest" above, and knelt down on one knee and continued: "The minister did not believe the news at first. Although the minister did not agree with the many practices of General Esdes, this People's loyalty to the empire is indeed beyond doubt...but the intelligence personnel stationed in the north are the confidants of the ministers. He did see with his own eyes General Esders entering the barracks, and then all the northern troops launched the flag of rebellion.
