Conquest
Chapter 496: [Late Night Visit]
Serenbonelli was uneasy, but there was no better way. He could only send an effective subordinate from his powerful home to quietly inquire around the Dukes of Minas. (Reading novels)
The little seal of time has passed by the throne of time. The old prime minister's heart has never been so nervous. Even when the last time the city of Osquilia was broken and the rebels entered the city, the old man had never been so frustrated. At that time, although the situation was bad and almost in desperation, the idea of the old prime minister was simple: if he had lost his country, then the prime minister himself was nothing more than a death.
But tonight's situation is different!
In his anxiety, most of them had a guilty conscience. Although he trusts that these elite warriors stocked in his home are in the empire after all, each wealthy noble has a tradition of breeding elite private soldiers. The private soldiers supported by these families are equivalent to the private army of noble wealthy. Both honor and disgrace have been fully maintained with the family, and there is no doubt about the loyalty to the family, and there is little possibility of rebellion. Nobles often do not condone the acts of rebellious families. Once this happens, "rebels will be cast aside by the entire aristocratic class."
He made preparations today. The goal is naturally that the Duke of Minas has decided to come to the banquet to meet him, but suddenly canceled the trip before going out. Is it ...
Did the savvy old guy find out what he was doing?
It stands to reason that it is impossible! The elite dead men of his own family will never act rebelliously!
But the old prime minister of Erhai all his life knew a truth: there is no absolute thing in the world! Often it is those seemingly impossible things. Once it happens, then it is a disaster!
With the deep inside information of the Duke of Minas family in the army, if the old Duke learns that he actually intends to kill him, then the rebound and revenge that the Minas family will follow will also be
Gently shook his head. The old prime minister tried his best to suppress the thoughts in his heart.
Will not! If he has noticed that "the counterattack has been launched at this moment! Don't look at the old duke who has kept his eyes down for a few years, he is very peaceful", but he is old and invincible, but Saran Bonelli is also an old man But personally experienced the period when the old Duke of Minas reigned in the army! At the time, the Duke of Minas was determined and determined, and never hesitated! If he knew that he wanted to harm him, then at this moment, the old duke had sent him the elite department in Dukes of Minas to fight!
The old duke was a horse in his life, and the elite warriors stocked in his home were undoubtedly second to none in terms of quantity and quality among all the imperial nobles! The quality of the private soldiers of the Minas family is comparable to that of the Emperor's personal armed "Dark Night Royal Forest"!
If the Duke of Minas is really determined to fight back, then everyone will fight hard, and they must lose themselves!
This is a life-and-death moment!
The old prime minister didn't think his thoughts would be too exaggerated!
He knows the Duke of Minas so much! This guy seems to be in harmony in recent years, but his temperament will never change! As the prime minister, the emperor is the number one minister to whom he trusts. "If the old duke knew that he was going to fight him, then the other party would interpret it as the emperor's own meaning! Once he was identified as the emperor's own right "The Minas family started", then the counterattack of the Minas family will no longer have any concerns!
"I hope the gods can keep their promises." The old Prime Minister looked grim. His eyes were full of cold light: "If the Minas family can have no heart" to serve the royal family, it will be a great fortune for the country! If it really becomes a mess ... then, This is the calamity of the Empire! "
Until it was completely dark, Lao Zai never had half a bite for dinner, waiting quietly in the study.
Finally, almost midnight, the talents sent out to inquire about the news finally came back to sue.
The close guard of the old prime minister was sent out. This was a lean middle-aged samurai who ran into the prime minister's study room and was sweating on his forehead. "It was clear that the journey was very hard.
"Sir! There is news!" The head guard was about to kneel and salute. "The prime minister frowned." Say! What time is it, no need to salute! Say it! "
"Yes!" The guard had a cautious and careful temperament and took a breath before whispering quickly: "I split my hands two times, one team went to the city gate to check, and the other team hid with me in the Ducal Mansion. Nearby. Just a while ago, "finally got the news. The team of Knights brought by Lord Roddy returned to the city from outside the city. At night, the gates were closed to impose a curfew. Only then did the generals guarding the city open the gates and let them in. My person was nearby, and I saw it very real and could not go wrong. "
After a pause, the captain added: "There is an unusual detail: when Lord Roddy took people out of the city, they were all horse teams. When they came back, there was a light carriage in the team." The carriage was very rude. Obviously, it was temporarily collected outside the city. Some of my staff recognized that "it was a truck but it was temporarily modified." The carriage was shed! When they entered the city, the horse team held the car in the middle of the team, the carport was lowered, and the cover was rigorous. Obviously, they didn't want people to see what was inside. Because they brought the old duke's handwriting, they kept the door. The generals did not dare to interrogate them, and they were released directly into the city. After entering the city, the group returned directly to the Ducal Palace. "
"What else?" The Prime Minister nodded.
The captain groaned slightly: "I saw the carriage outside the Duke's Mansion. From the mark of the wheel, the carriage was not heavy, and the mark on the road was light and shallow."
"Very well, you are very careful." The old prime minister nodded again, but frowned, "Do you think" ..., what will be hidden in the carriage? " "
"The subordinates don't know or dare to guess." The captain shook his head honestly: "After the carriage entered the house, the Duke's Mansion closed the door. It can be seen that their entire house is under high alert and the number of guards is high. At least doubled. "
Salenbonelli took a deep breath and "walked around the room for a while, then quickly walked to the table" and wrote a warrant, handed it to the captain: "Now the curfew is sealed "You immediately took my warrant" to get out of the city to check the news. Where did Roddy take the person to go out of the city, and where did he meet? "And where did the carriage come from? Ok……"
Speaking of this, the Prime Minister was a little hesitant in his heart, the head of the guard was moved, and he whispered: "Is the adult" PS to do a little cleaner, if you ask the relevant person, do you want it? "Hesitated, he Made a single palm down cut.
"... No need." The old Prime Minister smiled suddenly, the haze and tension in his eyes had disappeared: "The situation does not seem to be as bad as I thought. Well" look carefully "just don't show the trace, don't Let people know that you are in my house. Are n’t the Military Department transferred a lot of garrison troops from the south these days? You put on the clothes of the garrison troops and went out of town to check the news. "
After the guard commanded him, the old prime minister breathed a long sigh of relief, and slowly returned to his chair.
It seems that "the change of the Minas family was not because they found their movements. It was something important in their own house ...
In the wagon that Roddy brought back, "what was secretly loaded?"
What can fit in a small carriage? Prohibited things? Prohibited things, of course, will not be. The first choice is ordnance weapons and equipment, but the Duke of Minas has been in the army for a long time. Those prohibited weapons and equipment may be rare items for others, but in his house There must be a lot. So ... is it a private good?
The Duke of Minas is not short of money either.
Could it be ...
people! !!
Or did the old duke contact some of the old guards of the southern guards and went to the city to meet and discuss any secret events?
The old prime minister thought of this, "Suddenly a bitter smile, it seems wrong to think so: unless it is to convene the old ministry to rebel, otherwise the old duke will never start to call on the old ministry to hide his talents for so many years, and has been low-key. Faced with the need to call up his subordinates before resurrection, drew suspicion from others. He should only be more low-key now!
Thinking of this, the old Prime Minister moved in his heart "thinking of one thing ...
"Calculate the days, it should not have arrived yet." The brigade rushed from the north, even if they walked fast. There should still be half a month before the Seal of the Seal of God was "...", and waited for the dawn almost "Guard Changcai finally returned with the results of the inquiry.
The captain was very effective in doing things, and the information returned was very detailed.
"When Lord Roddy went out of town", he was taken to a small village in the northwest direction, less than twenty miles from the emperor. I took someone to inquire about the news in the village. The carriage was also bought by a carriage and horse dealer in the village. We asked the people at the carriage and horse line. At that time, the little duke took people to surround the carriage and horse line, so that no one was allowed to come in and out, but the people with the carriage and horse line heard the cry from afar. The voice, even the little Duke Roddy, had red eyes when he came out, but his expression was very excited, as if he was very happy, "I see. The Prime Minister ’s response was much calmer this time, and the news that was clearly brought back further confirmed his guess.
"Master, we ..."
"Come on, let everyone rest, there will be no major events." The prime minister breathed a sigh of relief. "The following things are not something you can understand." "
After the guard went out, the old prime minister called his own housekeeper.
"Get a car, I'm going out."
The steward looked at the tired face of the master, "Can't help but said:" Master, you haven't had a bite tonight, it's not too early to seal the throne ... "
"What do you know, I can't make a big deal, and it's tonight! Hurry up, don't follow the guard, change to an obscure old carriage, I'm going to the military."
The old prime minister lightly Jane horse, quietly out of the gate in the middle of the night. "Only two close attendants followed, even the groom was in charge of the house.
He visited the imperial ministry in the middle of the night, and the old prime minister did not show up. He only let his subordinates show a high-level permit, and the guards of the military ministry immediately released it.
The person to be visited by Salem Bonelli is Adrik ~ Although it is midnight, the old prime minister has no doubt that Adrik must not have fallen asleep at this time.
Although the old prime minister knew that his goal in government affairs was to limit the chief of the army who was too powerful. But in private, he admired the pillar of the empire's current army. Adrik is selfless. Since he took office, he has been a busy official who has been "abandoning his bed and forgetting about food" for almost one hundred years.
Although everyone is in a different camp, "Lao Jie admires the diligence of a government like Adrik.
For the Prime Minister's late-night visit, Adrik seemed surprised, but he immediately realized that the other party must have some major secrets to discuss with himself before choosing to run at such a time.
Adrik calmly met the Prime Minister and asked his guard to guard the room where the two met tightly.
He closed the door with his own hands before Adrik turned around. "Looking at the old prime minister who was sitting in a chair leisurely.
"Master comes late at night, I don't know ..."
Before Adrik had finished, the prime minister had a long sigh: "General Adrik, you do the work of imperial affairs, and sleepless and forgetful food, I really admire it."
With that said, the prime minister's eyes deliberately landed on Adrik's table. It was a food dish, which was obviously Adrik's dinner. There were two cold and hard pastries in it ~ www.readwn.com ~ There was only a slice of bacon in the middle. Because it has cooled down, there is a layer of disgusting white oil on it.
The dignified imperial minister, the emperor's number one, actually eats so simple! The prime minister naturally could see that the noodle cake was made only with the most common coarse grains. As for the bacon, it was no different from what ordinary soldiers ate.
Adrik saw the prime minister's eyes and smiled slightly: "The prime minister speaks heavily. Such a meal is already good, at least meat. If the food in the march and the field army, it is good to have bread to satisfy the hunger. Yes. "
The old man nodded, his eyes were a bit complicated, and he sighed longly, looking at Adrick's tired face, and whispered, "Master, how many days haven't slept?"
"..." Adrik frowned slightly, and said lightly, "Prince Prime Minister makes everything late at night," I'm afraid not to come and talk to me about accommodation and food? "
In fact, Adrik hadn't closed his eyes for two days, and now he was tired and a little impatient.
"The general is hard." The old prime minister said lightly: "I just want to ask you what you think." What is the hardest thing for you now? "
