Chapter 551 Continues
In the Aphrodite/Luna Hall of the Pablo Palace, there were bursts of chants of long titles one after another.The envoys of the princes and princes of the Netherlands, wearing peacock-like dresses and soft hats, and ribbons, badges, and scarves of various colors, also entered in a file.

They are from the Counties of the Netherlands, Zeeland, Flanders, Hainault, Vermandois, Artois, Boulogne, Etinois, etc. Eleven northern vassal territories including the Earl, Eber, Brabant, and Limburg.

Of course, before meeting with them, the vast majority of them made preliminary negotiations and contacts with the Freedom Army/National Salvation Government who entered the city of Seine through Rafaro, the new acting mayor; The diplomatic envoys reached a new package agreement on this.

For example, including the counties of Avatu, which was a distant branch of the former royal family, and the three coastal lowland princes including the counties of the Netherlands, Zeeland, and Flanders; in order to continue the obedience and vassal obligations to the new dynasty/government , in exchange for re-opening the sea trade route and anticipation of military assistance.

Another example is that one of the costs of rebuilding the affiliation of the princes, in addition to the export of minerals and animal husbandry; these four counties will use the young and strong population in their territory as part of the tribute, and will be the new dynasty/government in the next ten years. Provide labor/soldier sources ranging from thousands to [-].

As a subsidiary clause, the new dynasty will restore the practice of the Flanders Legion, station a certain number of garrisons in the above-mentioned counties, and have long-term ownership of several military fortresses/fortress cities.At the same time, when the corresponding territory is invaded by the British Isles, troops will be sent to support.

Therefore, the Third Army, which has first gone north to take over the frontier provinces, will wait for the opportunity to crusade and is now entrenched between the Counties of Zeeland, Netherlands and Avatu, and has already occupied more than a dozen cities and many towns; And for a time sought to become the British coalition of Burgundian vassals.

In contrast, some of the princes headed by the inland Duchy of Brabant have much more complicated demands.In addition to traditional affiliation and large-scale trade agreements, they in turn demanded a variety of assistance from the New Kingdom, from loans of food supplies to weapons and equipment.

Therefore, in the face of these apparently tentative asking prices, the new government will not suspend negotiations because of habit.But this does not prevent them from joining the first meeting of the new dynasty in the name of watching the ceremony under the leadership of the other four counties; it is just to avoid standing directly on the opposite side of the new dynasty.

But when every envoy from the princes arrived at the gate of the Pablo Palace and saw with his own eyes the giant remains of the scorched blood tree erected in the vestibule square as a spoil of war, he couldn't help being horrified. They successively lowered their posture and spirit, and became more pragmatic.

After all, after hundreds of years of celestial change, it seems that only the powerful force represented by the Free Army has a strong enough stand and strength to eradicate and destroy with ease in the wave of rampant and frequent changes. These exist with great threats.

In contrast, the princes of the Netherlands, who were relatively small and few people, had no time since ancient times, and they were even reluctant to protect themselves.After all, if this level of alien disasters appeared in their territory, relying on their vassals and army alone would be useless.

Therefore, in addition to the four counties that have reached an agreement; there are also the Duchy of Limburg, the Counties of Hainault, the Counties of Vermandois, and the Counties of Boulogne; A package solution offered by the military, a request to restart negotiations and negotiations.

The Duchy of Brabant, which is the most powerful among the princes of the Netherlands and is known for its abundance of mercenaries, and the counties of Etino and Erb, who are close to each other, have also loosened their attitudes.After presenting gifts representative of the place, ask for grace time to contact the respective lords.

In addition, the most eye-catching people in this ceremonial meeting are the new acting mayor Rafaro, who is the former imperial ceremonial officer; Mr. Treusi Nisit, Advisor to the Capital Region Regulatory Commission.

Because, this undoubtedly also represents the regime of the new dynasty. For the old and new nobles inherited in the royal capital, it is the only chance of pardon and redemption.But at the end of this audience ceremony, with the sound of the heavy armored guard knight's spear knocking, another person came up.

However, after seeing this person, inside and outside the Aphrodite/Luna Hall, the citizens, guilds, representatives of business groups, church people who were fortunate enough to be present at the ceremony, and the people of all walks of life, could not help but let out a low sigh. There was an uproar; because he was the archbishop of the former dynasty.

At the same time, he is also the Archbishop of the Capital Region / Metropolitan of Seine / Roussillon, the first seat of the Sacred Heart Cathedral.It's just that at this moment his double crown is missing, his eyes are lifeless, his hair is disheveled, and his white robe is also stained with mud; he staggered to the atrium under the chains that bound his arms.

Just when everyone was discussing whether to let the once glorious archbishop repent; Rodrigo, who was full of scars but his armor was full of scars, suddenly walked out from the flanking knights with a big sword in his hand; Er Zhishi swung his sword and cut off Roussillon's head.

Following the spray of Lao Gao's blood from the headless body, and the flying head that fell to the ground, everyone present held their breath for a few moments.Then, it turned into uncontrollable screams.Because almost no one thought that the new king would execute the archbishop on the spot,
However, an even more unexpected change happened immediately.The head of Archbishop Roussillon, which rolled to the ground, continued to hiss and roar before being dead, and then violently wriggled and transformed into the appearance of another person.Then he was picked up by Rafaro who walked out of the hall with a rapier.

"Have you seen it? The venerable archbishop of the kingdom has already been killed and replaced by a demon, and his body was thrown into a deep underground pit." He shouted with all his strength: "The rebels in Burgundy The churches in the capital region are no longer pure and pious under the rule of

"As a result, it lost its sacred brilliance, failed to protect the people, and instead became an accomplice who sheltered the alien and harmed people. Therefore, according to my king's order, the members of the church in the capital region will be screened and purified to eradicate those who have mixed into the sacred place. of the demon and his accomplices . . . "

It was night, and compared to the continuous hustle and bustle in the city, the Pablo Palace was peaceful; only a small team of guard knights were patrolling.Because Paulina, the head of the Overseas Legion from the southern front, also arrived in the city of Seine and was summoned into the Pablo Palace overnight.

It’s just that in the Venus Hall at this moment, her clothes are half-undressed, revealing a large area of ​​smooth skin. Her body is lying on the huge oak desk; In a beautiful figure, there is a statue of a goddess representing youth and love.

　My boss’s grades came out, and I was upset. I didn’t write a little until now.
