Vol 2 Chapter 1216: The eve of the event

On February 1, 1205 in the Seven Lunar Calendar, the sky in Heimdall was clear and cloudless. The always rainy winter in the imperial capital also seldom sold mortals a face on this day; looking at the blue sky, the employees of the imperial capital hall unanimously breathed a sigh of relief. The good weather means that they can be a little less busy, after all, they can't let the protagonist attending this ceremony, the imperial emperor Ukent Lezer Yanor, be soaked by the heavy rain.
Today is a special day, because this is the first time that the emperor Ukent has appeared in a public place open to the public in ten years. Usually, in scenes that require the presence of the supreme ruler of the empire, he will only let Prime Minister Osborne and the three members of the royal family do it for him. The immediate boss of the Imperial Capital Hall, Karl Regnitz, was nervous as never before, and even his subordinates felt the same. Compared with the media, they are more concerned about the political significance behind the emperor's abnormal behavior. They are more concerned about how to achieve perfection, so as to avoid irritating their old superiors.
According to the previous plan, the emperor Ukent will give a speech to the audience at Dreikaels Square at 10 o'clock in the morning. Although the huge square itself can accommodate hundreds of thousands of listeners, for the basic consideration of maintaining order and safety, only a few thousand people will be allowed to watch the emperor's appearance up close. After the speech, the emperor will board the luxurious car exclusive to the royal family, and then pass through the Triumphal Avenue, the Avenue of the Holy Flame, the Sankt District, and the Leica District, and finally arrive at the Imperial Racecourse, where the award and commendation ceremony will be held-the object is the previous one. The military and civilians who made outstanding contributions in the civil war. After that, the emperor will allow the media to ask him a few questions for the first time ever-this was absolutely impossible before; at the same time, including Prince Olibat, the media will have the opportunity to invite people they are interested in for exclusive interviews. , If the invitee doesn’t mind.
Since Prime Minister Osborne was sniped in the square just two months ago, this time the imperial capital’s alert will be increased by several levels: the first, second, and newly transferred fourth mecha division. The elite of the group will be distributed throughout the imperial capital to ensure that no clues will be missed; a group of top masters who are well-known in the mainland will accompany the VIPs to avoid accidents. But until now, they have not received any news to confirm whether Prime Minister Osborne participated in this event.
In addition, many people want to know whether the "Gray Knight" Lien Schwarzer, who has made outstanding achievements in the previous civil wars, will attend this ceremony: not long before, the imperial government commissioned this hero in the civil war. Go to Closbell with the giant knight statue to assist Governor Rufas in expelling the invading Republican army. Under the highly mobile breakthrough power of a huge humanoid named "Mountain God", the airboat formation proud of the Republican army can hardly break through the defense lines of the imperial army. As for the imperial army, which originally dominates, it is even more powerful than the friendly army. Encouragement and air superiority to repel the offensive of the Republican army again and again next time. After another squadron’s air-ground mixed formation was repelled by the Imperial Army with almost zero casualties, there have been reports that the top military leaders of the Republic lacked confidence in further expanding the scale of military operations, and even had to take the initiative to engage the Empire on the Crossbell affairs. Willing to negotiate.
Here, many people can once again clarify the fact that even though they have just experienced a civil war that affected many people and even lost their loved ones, the hostility of the imperial people towards the Karvard Republic has never diminished. A young hero who crippled his mortal enemy through direct military action quickly occupied the core of many rumors. However, this young hero, who is said to be still studying at the Thorz Military Academy, has always acted low-key, and at the same time refused any interviews and talks, so many people could not get a glimpse of his true appearance; and this time the emperor personally attended the ceremony, many people I thought that no matter how low-key he was, it was impossible not to give the emperor this face-maybe today is the perfect opportunity to get an interview with Lien Shuhuaze.
As for Helica, which is relatively more conspicuous and more exposed, at this moment there is not so much media attention. Not for anything else, it’s just that Heliga itself is no longer so mysterious—just a week ago, this young hero who also shines in the Empire has accepted an exclusive interview with the "Empire Times" and talked about it. His acquaintance with Prince Oribat, his vision for the future of the empire, and his evaluation of the current situation in the empire. Except for the personal love life that many people are interested in, Heilijia does not shy away from almost anything and dares to say anything—this kind of unexpected frankness has made Heilijia lose the value of continuing to dig deeper in the eyes of the media. . However, this is exactly what he wants: to solve these troubles all at once, and save someone who has nothing to look for, which adds to his troubles.
Therefore, he persuaded Lien in the same way-at this time Heliga was chatting with Lien, who had just returned to Tolz from the front line of Closberg, through "ARCUS", and the latter mentioned that he was hesitant to participate in this meeting.
"It doesn't matter if you want to come or not... Your Majesty doesn't want to disturb you because of such trivial matters." Heliga said, "However, the more you avoid the media's understanding of you, the more they want to dig into everything about you. …I think you might as well just accept an interview, which will save a lot of rumors. Don’t you have a good relationship with Mr. Norton? You can talk to him and avoid some sensitive issues in the interview."
"I see... I'll think about it." Li En said after a moment of silence, "But...I have other things to worry about. I might...not be ready to meet him yet."
"Are you talking about Prime Minister Osborne? The news I heard was that he would not come forward... It is said that his Majesty still asked him like this. Of course, he did not say that to the outside world, but that the Prime Minister is busy with business and may not be free. In fact, he I'm busy taking care of Kane's father." Heilijia understood Lien's concerns, "So if you want to come, don't worry about this."
"Did your majesty take the initiative?" Li En looked a little surprised; obviously, like most empires, he believed that the emperor had complete unconditional trust in the prime minister, and such actions would undoubtedly be regarded as the emperor and the prime minister. The rift in the relationship, "I thought..."
"You are right... Your Majesty did this not to be dissatisfied with the Prime Minister, but to have other deep meanings. I don't know the specifics..." Heliga was silent for a moment-which involved a possible core guess, "In short, this Think about it yourself. If you want to come, you can directly contact the Dean of Van Dijk. He also said that this is the last time he has done something for Tolz. After all... he has also decided to return to the regular army."
