Whispers of the Gods

Chapter 56 Sigmund III (3)

Mrs. Xancy Bean sat in the middle of the seat of the Piasic family. She was wearing a yellow silk robe with a white lion and a black rooster embroidered on it, the symbols of the Bean family and the Piasic family. .

She was wrinkled and looked older than "patient" Julius Doctor.Mrs. Bean's light brown hair fell to her shoulders and she had a ruddy complexion.

A lioness never leaves her herd, and Xancey Bean has always had a strong bond with her family.

The Bean family in Alcurica City has always been a big family under the Piasic family, and their marriage relationship can be traced back to before the birth of the Vivalia Kingdom.

After the death of "Wooden Rooster" Yakub Piasik, although the 19-year-old Jessek Piasik inherited his father's title of duke logically, his influence in the Pingdi City Territory and his Zancy Bean, the mother of his mother, was tiny by comparison.

"Master Sigmund, you don't seem very happy." Alan Apollon sat on the left side of his bench holding a silver wine glass.

Alan has a weak figure under the golden silk long coat. He has the beautiful pale blond hair of the Korva family, and his soft face is very much like his mother.

"His Royal Highness Prince Allen." Sigmund nodded and saluted.

A 17-year-old child can see that he is unhappy, is his face so obvious?
Of course he is not happy, how can he be happy?

That reckless Drake Apollion had killed Prince Leo Corva, and his father insisted that Her Majesty marry him.

The Dukes of Vivaria bullied the Colvas, and now the Apollians of Hastza want to take a share.

After Sigmund found him in Vigrich Apollion, he advised Queen Lozaria to be careful of Emperor Hastza's plot.

But I didn't expect the old fox to hide the strategy of Jarus Perk in his hands.If Her Majesty rejects Drake Apolion, then with the support of the Hastza Empire, the Zarek family, the Jagoron family, and the high priest Bathorik Zarek will fall to the "Hornless Bull" ".

If the war really comes, the three dukes in the west will probably just sit on the sidelines and reap the benefits, and will not fulfill their oath as vassals of the Korva family.

How much can the vassals of the Korva family's own territory contribute?

Earl Horati Gratz of Willow City is considered to have the largest number of soldiers among the vassals of the Korva family, and he probably can't afford a hundred knights and five hundred trained infantry.

The Earl of Eagle Harbor City, Kesma Broda, may only have a poor 20 knights and more than 100 trained soldiers.

Without the help of the other dukes, the Korvas would not be able to stand against the Hastza Empire.

What's funny is that the person who is most likely to support the Korva family after this is the reckless "reckless bear" Konrad Welker.

"I heard from my mother that Uncle Leo was a good man during his lifetime." Allen interrupted his thoughts.

"He is." Sigmund affirmed regretfully, "He has a brave heart like his elder brother Rudomir. If he is still alive, he will definitely become Her Majesty's right-hand man."

"I'm sorry for my brother's reckless behavior, Lord Sigmund." Allen said guiltily.

Sigmund looked at him and replied, "You don't need to apologize for your brother's crimes. It is he who should apologize to Vivalia and Her Majesty the Queen."

He looked towards the end of the hall, where Zhuo Ke Apollion was sitting with his family, tearing the beef off his cleaver.

The double golden dragon and gray star flag of the Apolion family and the gold and red letter flag of the Hastza Empire are particularly dazzling behind them.

It has been more than 120 years since the Kingdom of Vivalia got rid of the oppression of the Hastza Empire. Is Vivalia going to bow its knees to the Apollon family again under the rule of Queen Lozaria?
Before the death of King Izdor, Sigmund swore to the star gods that no matter which prince or princess was elected by the nobles as the king of a country, he would do his best to assist him.

Though oaths might mean nothing to dukes, he would never be an oath-breaker.This was a promise he made to those who trusted him the most, and he owed so much to King Izidor.

But there was no regret on the face of this bastard Zhuo Ke Apollion, even in the living room, he felt that he was not wrong to kill Prince Leo.

"No, I insist." Allen said, "Uncle Leo shouldn't have died like this. Mother's heart is broken."

"How is your mother now, is she better?" Sigmund asked softly.

"I'm afraid not." Allen shook his head in frustration. "She feels trapped and used. Sitting in this hall makes her feel painful. She is very embarrassed now."

Sigmund's eyes softened. Poor His Royal Highness Dia, she was caught between the Apollon family and the Corva family at a loss.

Vigerich Apollion did not love His Royal Highness Dia, nor would he understand his wife's difficulties.

"Good boy, after the banquet is over, say hello to your mother for me." Sigmund asked Allen.

"I will, Lord Sigmund." Allen smiled kindly, "Do you know when Uncle Leo's funeral will be held?"

"Prince Leo will be buried in the King's Grove, Your Highness Allen." Sigmund replied, "His Majesty will hold his funeral in the middle of the hunting celebration. He loved hunting during his lifetime, and he belongs to the King's Grove."

Although he cannot be buried in the catacombs of Jaegerska Palace like previous kings, his body and his sword will be guarded by Vivaria's kingdom guards.

"Lord Sigmund," the sloppy manservant Ansiwa reported to him, "the envoys of the Republic of Drax have arrived, and they are waiting outside the door."

"I see," Sigmund drank the blue dragon flame in the cup in one gulp, "Excuse me, Your Highness Allen."

Accompanied by Ansiwa, Sigmund came to the door of the hall.

The envoys of the Republic of Drax consisted of more than ten people. The envoys wore white velvet coats and thick gemstone necklaces around their necks to show their wealth.

They embroidered the flag of the Republic on their chests, which made Sigmund frown slightly.

After deposing the king of the Korva family, the people of the Drax Kingdom became self-reliant. They embroidered white cloth on the head of the blue dragon on the flag. The citizens of each city elected their own mayor, and the six mayors elected A Governor-General is appointed for a one-year term.

God knows how proud they are. These kingless robbers call themselves Bumin, and they fantasize about trampling blue dragons under their feet.
