Vol 4 Chapter 11: Confrontation Yuqian (Part 1)

At dawn, the sky dome.
The dark-haired wizard with his eyes closed sat on a cold stone chair, and the left and right sides were fully armed and equipped with royal guards with tower shields and halberds, staring at his every move without any meaning of words.
This state has been maintained for almost four hours ... almost since they have not moved since they searched.
There are many affairs, and His Majesty the Supreme Emperor, who has forgotten to sleep and eat, will certainly not waste his precious sleep time just because he sees a small "Wizard Advisor."
So the exact time of the meeting was before the court meeting of the Yuqian Cabinet ... But according to the law of the Sakran Empire, all the courtiers who accepted the meeting must enter the palace half a day early ...
Therefore, Loren had to sit and wait here from midnight until His Majesty the High Emperor allowed him to see him.
You must prepare yourself.
While closing his eyes and raising his mind, Loren adjusted his state as soon as possible, thinking about how he should face His Majesty the Supreme Emperor of the Sakran Empire ... and the royal prince of the entire Yuqian Cabinet.
Although Brandon said that he had won the agreement, the sighting was just a formal transition, but ... for all expectations and beyond the possibility of the plan, Loren was deeply disgusted.
The most perfect ideal model should be that all "surprise" can be notified three days in advance, and all accidents have a complete preparation plan.
No one is a god, and no one can predict the future ... but we can take advantage of what we see in front of us to perform what we haven't seen yet.
A royal bodyguard walked in front of him, and the dark-haired wizard, who readily understood it, got up; under the leadership of the other party, he was "escorted" by the other two bodyguards behind him, and walked forward step by step.
Through countless porches, palaces, steps ... At the end of a promenade, Loren and the guards behind him stopped in front of a gate. The black crown was carved with an iron crown lifted by three dragons.
This is the power center of the Sacrament Empire. The core of the core determines the decree of the empire, the deployment of the legion, the collection of taxes, the appointment of titles ... all things, all rights ... small rooms.
Yuqian cabinet.
The two guards behind him stepped forward and opened the door; the dark-haired wizard with his hands on his back adjusted his breath, and his mind began to recall Brandon's description of the Yuqian cabinet before coming:
"... nominally for the purpose of efficiency and concentration of responsibilities, my father's cabinet may be the smallest of the emperors of all dynasties, almost streamlined to the point where it could not be more streamlined; in fact ... just for autocracy ..."
"... So you can also imagine that anyone who is qualified to enter my father's cabinet is either the one with superior ability and the one who must let him in ..."
"... or, the one that had to let him in ..."
Hurrying into the room, the door slammed closed behind the dark-haired wizard; a long table with a red carpet was facing the door, right in the middle of the room.
On both sides of the long table, there are six armchairs of different shapes, and also six people with completely different dresses. A pair of eyes with different emotions are cast on the dark-haired wizard who walked into the room.
"This is the one ... the wizard wizard who is called" genius "by Master Corona and still works on the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain, Lord Loren Turin, right?"
The first to speak was an elder in a purple wizard robes sitting at the end of the long table. With a very kind smile on his pale face, he even got up and nodded to the black wizard.
Loren, who raised his head, quickly paid tribute to the other party, and there was a little more respect in his words: "Master Albert, you are so ridiculous, I really can't afford to be so praised!"
"... Albert Tarot, the former wizard counselor, the honorary dean of the Royal Wizard College, one of the veterans of the wizard tower, proficient in the three disciplines of prophecy, astrology, and mystery, and the only one who may have a good opinion of you. Guy, you do n’t even have to please him, he will speak for you ... "
"... Of course, this master is also notoriously soft, with a very good temper, and is ignored by people all year round; so although he will be on your side, don't expect any help ... … "
The relatively smiling voice of the two had just fallen, and just before Alberd sat down, another very heavy voice came.
"Thousands of believers who have dedicated themselves to the Holy Cross in the ice and snow!
It was a middle-aged man with a beard sitting at the other corner of the mouth opposite; coldly glanced at the imperial wizard advisor, while Al Bird still smiled as if he had n’t seen it, making him sneer Aimed at Loren:
"I ask you, wizard! What are you doing when the believers fighting for faith fight with the monster ?!"
The fists behind him clenched hard, and the dark-haired wizard still had a smile on his face.
"... The Chief Judgment Officer of Holy Cross Church, Terrace Lufu; full-time responsible for the judgment of cases involving religious affairs and the transfer of church knights. Archbishop Innocent is a non-secular saint, so he is really in This is the real power in the church ... "
"... In addition, this Lord Telles is actually a good person, but he is more stubborn; so be careful not to confront him head-on, if you are to blame, just follow his words ..."
In the eyes of the other party, Loren nodded slightly: "I'm doing what I can do ... After His Highness Brandon went north, he first went to the Blood Skull Valley to investigate, and then went deep into the northern glaciers and snow mountains to find the movement of the monsters. I have fought alongside several church knights. "
"Just in that ice and snow deserted glacier wasteland, I and two other partners who accompanied me, without any reinforcement or supplies, went deep into the snowy mountains ... The glaciers collapsed, the snow closed the road, and thousands of Thousands of monsters are chasing and killing, amidst the hunger and cold, they are unexpectedly ... "
"But ... as you said, it is those soldiers who do not count the sacrifices and bloodshed that really hold the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain, not the merits of the next person."
After speaking, Loren bowed deeply to the other party, and the church judge in a sneer turned his face. Obviously, he was not very cold about Loren's flattering answer.
Straightening these two, Loren turned his eyes to the other four behind him who had not spoken, but were silently watching his cabinet ministers, his eyes narrowed:
The old man sitting in the church magistrate looked down on himself;
"... The former Chancellor of the Exchequer, Siscott Zahn, the kind of guy who had to let him into the cabinet ..."
"... The history of the Zahn family can be traced back to the ancient Sacran kingdom, and Grandpa Siscott is one of the most powerful of the" old conservative nobles "of the imperial capital. It is very difficult ... I remember he launched it a few years ago After the proposal to return the imperial capital to East Sacran, although it eventually failed, it was also huge ... "
The middle-aged man in the upper right hand of Master Albert has a sharp eye;
"... The former Chief Justice Victor Hughes, the 'newcomer' promoted by his father, but is almost fifty years old; although he is easily emotionally guided when judging the case, he is a rare and fair judge; the most important point is this The guy is a civilian, and was used by his father to deal with the old nobles ... "
A middle-aged man with a beard and a beard, knocking on the armrest of the chair anxiously without looking at him;
"... The former military minister Severin de Salion, a side branch of our family; the same as Ernst Dresis, deputy commander of the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain ~ EbookFREE.me ~ was promoted by his father. Coming up; capable and faithful, the last thing you need to count on is him, because he says what his father says ... "
"I once heard an interesting‘ fun story ’from Lotel about the heir to the Principality of Lotel, Earl Ruben Friede.

With a bland smile on the corner of his mouth, Loren clenched his fist secretly, looking at the one who opened ... wrinkled face, gray hair but extremely spirited, and the dark green pupil was clear like water.
"... Metternich Leopold, the Minister of the Imperial Seal, the father in the cabinet who most trusts and has the most power, has the privilege of regency and arbitrariness in general affairs, and is one you must deal with carefully ... … "
"In the past two or three months, the young earl regained the land and power of the deep forest with the help of a noble rebellion, and even reached an alliance with the elves of the ancient wood forest; it is said that ... this was planned by a wizard consultant. Is this the case? "
Metternich Leopold's voice was very soft, but at the moment his voice fell, the eyes of five people gathered on Loren at the same time.
On the go!
