Lord: Marry the villain's daughter at the beginning?

Chapter 422 Completely Delayed Information



Chapter 422 Completely Delayed Information

Although the nobles of Castile lived a very luxurious life and even used spellcasters for the most basic lighting, Gonzalez VI was quite frugal and could only use the simplest lighting equipment, the effect of which was not even as good as the magical lamps used by the Gray Robes in the Roll Empire.

Under the dim light, the incomplete letter, wet by sea water and soaked in blood, slowly appeared before Gonzalez VI's eyes.

Looking at the letter sent from the national teacher whom he personally promoted from far away in Mu Continent, Gonzalez VI sighed even more.

"Gray Robe, Gray Robe, it would be great if you could just fail..."

Gonzalez VI fell directly on the throne.

This was not because Gonzalez VI was cursing the death of the national teacher whom he had promoted personally, but because Grey Robe and Rosaline's voyage and their tacit death were facts known to all nobles and the royal family. If possible, that group of people even wanted to push Grey Robe and Rosaline directly to the guillotine, but in the end they chose a decent death for the two of them. Sailing for the country, at least it sounded pretty good.

Gray Robe and Rosalin were forced to sail not simply because they were the troublemakers of the war faction, but because the water was too deep and Gonzalez VI could no longer control himself. After Gray Robe sailed, the nobles even began to recommend new candidates for the national master to Gonzalez VI without hiding it.

Fortunately, because the struggle was too fierce and no one was willing to submit to anyone else, the position of national teacher is still vacant.

Of course, this is not a good thing for Castile.

But what no one expected was that Gray Robe and the little princess actually succeeded. Not only did they successfully arrive at Mu Continent, but they also became guests of honor in a country called Capet.

Gonzalez VI gently stroked the damaged stationery. If it weren't for the special stationery made by Gray Robe, it would have been rotten on the way.

A powerful country called Capet, whose main cities on the border are as prosperous as the central cities of Castile. It has a means of transportation that can quickly travel between cities and has a large cargo capacity. It even has firearms technology that is several times more powerful than the artillery smuggled by the Avars.

Because this letter was written by the Grey Robes soon after they arrived in Capet, and it was badly damaged along the way, many detailed information is no longer known. For example, the Grey Robes only said that they had met the princess of the elves, and the subsequent content was completely soaked by sea water and was severely damaged beyond repair, so that Castile did not know what the elves were like. But this was still very important to Castile. Of course, the most important thing was that Rosaline was still alive.

Not only did he survive, but he also learned a lot of knowledge, because in that country full of wisdom, the ladies actually sat together to do exercises during their afternoon tea time. When he saw this message, Gonzalez VI took the glasses from the maid beside him, put them on, checked them repeatedly, and put the letter back into the envelope several times. After taking it out, he carefully read the context and finally made sure that it had not been tampered with. This is what the gray robe wrote.

The ladies in that country actually had the hobby of doing exercises, and Rosalin made rapid progress in her studies while doing the exercises with them.

"..."

Gonzalez VI confirmed once again that he was not mistaken and continued reading.

The following long paragraph introduces Capetian political system, but again, there are large sections of damaged content. Fortunately, it can still be read smoothly in the context.

After reading the entire process of Capet's coup and knowing that the country was now ruled by the Governor of the North, Gonzalez VI put the letter back on the table.

The flickering lights were just like Gonzalez VI's mood at the moment. Judging from the letters, Capet's situation at that time was not much better than Castile's today. A queen from another family was in power, and the princess below was staging a coup. Compared with Castile, Capet was truly in a mess.

Moreover, the final outcome was not very good from the perspective of Gonzalez VI. The king's power fell into the hands of others. Although the Gray Robe praised the governor who ruled Capet in his letter, he was not the real king after all. From the perspective of Gonzalez VI, the governor of the north was an out-and-out traitor, and he did not usurp the throne only because the situation in Capet was too complicated at the time.

In fact, the content about how the Northern Governor saved the capital was almost completely destroyed. In addition, the Grey Robe had only heard about the situation at that time, so what was finally presented to the people of Castile was that a Northern Governor took advantage of the crisis in the capital, joined forces with the queen who was killed in a coup, led his troops into the capital and seized power.

Although this is indeed the case, the story is completely distorted without many details. Without the content of the defense of the royal capital and the scene of Lind's tank armored army crushing the descendants of the demon god, Lind, the governor of the northern border, looks like a cunning and long-planned rebel.

The reason he did not ascend the throne directly was because the situation in the royal capital was chaotic at the time.

The person Gonzalez VI could identify with the most was Augustine III. He could not sleep at night when he thought that after his death, the next king of Castile would die early, a queen from another family would succeed him, and then his son or daughter would stage a coup, and in the end the nobles who came to support would reap the benefits.

Moreover, at least from a few words, Gonzalez VI could infer that at least Augustine had no major problems with the issue of succession, and the queen of a different surname was purely an accident, but Castile was now on the verge of collapse just because of the issue of succession. The best outcome would probably be division, and the worst outcome would be to be annexed by the great nobles like Capet.

But Gonzalez VI was powerless to change the current situation. Almost every one of his children was supported by great nobles who owned real land in various regions. The royal power of Gonzalez was like the envelope that was delivered to him. At first, the small nobles might have given some respect, but the great nobles he met along the way did not care about Gonzalez VI's feelings at all and directly opened the envelope to see what was written inside.

After the envelope was opened, the following petty nobles no longer had any scruples and directly checked what was written in the envelope. Some even dared to slowly make a backup copy for themselves, so it took so long for the letter to reach Gonzalez VI.

Castile did not have a round table meeting mechanism similar to Capet, but on the day after Gonzalez VI read the letter, nobles continued to come to the palace to request an audience, including Gonzalez VI's second son Garcia.

"I'm really happy to hear that my sister is still alive."

Garcia bowed to his father, although there was no sign of happiness on his face, and he did not explain to Gonzalez VI where he got the information.

"But father, the country across the sea may not be a friend, and the Gray Robes may have already defected to them. Sister Rosalin may have been controlled by them."

The prince, with a worried look on his face, was selling an irrational conspiracy theory to his father. The core idea was that the Grey Robes were no longer reliable and might have rebelled, and that one must be cautious with this country across the sea. After all this meaningless nonsense, the prince finally stated his ultimate goal.

"And father, although those rich countries in Mu Continent have firearms, they cannot use super-level magic. In Mu Continent, a place full of magic, they may not be much stronger than us. Those countries must have been conquered by the Avars and dragons. After all, you know that no country can defeat a group of dragons, and those dragons have already flown to Mu Continent in droves."

"The Avars may have even conquered Mu Continent with the dragon. Even if they haven't, they have already made a lot of money in Mu Continent. If we don't cooperate with the Avars, we may not even get a share of the profits."

Garcia's expression seemed extremely anxious, but that was indeed the true thought of most of the nobles. After all, in the continent of Sauron, there would be information gaps between cities, not to mention the entire Sea of ​​Impermanence. They could only speculate about the situation in the continent of Mu based on the incomplete letters sent by the Gray Robe and the movements of the dragons on the continent of Sauron.
