Rise of the Plants

"By the way, don't forget about the banquet tomorrow night and remember not to be late." Sophila turned around and said.

"What kind of banquet? What is it for?" Chi Nan asked strangely.

Sophila said angrily: "You should really get to know some of the customs of the kingdom's nobles. Every time a war occurs, a banquet is held. This time it is between countries. Of course we have to hold."

With that said, Sophira turned and left. But while leaving, Sophila did not forget to take away the box of tea leaves that Chi Nan placed on the table. It seemed that Sophila was also addicted to tea.

But is this kind of behavior really possible for a princess? Chi Nan had a dark look on his face. But no matter what, Chi Nan also felt waves of warmth in his heart. At least this kind of behavior showed that Sophira really regarded him as a friend. Coming to these two worlds, it is a great honor to have a friend.

In the past two days, the atmosphere in the entire kingdom has become increasingly tense, and teams have set off towards the west of the kingdom. Various communication tools were flying back and forth over the royal capital.

But on the surface, nothing happened. It was still peaceful and seemed more prosperous than before.

If you look carefully, you can find some problems. For example, the prices of various weapons and metals on the market are constantly rising. When you go to the blacksmith shop, you will find that the blacksmiths are always busy.

And unfortunately, because there are so many orders, Blacksmith Gate will not have time to receive various other new orders in the next month. In the market, the prices of various foods are also increasing.

Especially all kinds of grains are becoming less and less available on the market. On the contrary, the prices of luxury goods in general have begun to drop, because many people are saving their limited funds and preparing more practical things for themselves.

Chi Nan even discovered that some small nobles actually took out some collections in their homes and sold them in exchange for things that could be used in the war. The entire royal capital suddenly became like a high-speed machine. A chilling atmosphere filled the sky above the royal capital.

On this morning, through his sense of plants, Chi Nan sensitively discovered that some flying things were flying away from the sky above the royal capital, and the direction was exactly to the west, where the war was about to take place.

"Over there, it should be the Kingdom of Karimsi. There are so many flying in the sky, it seems that the Griffin Legion is dispatched." Chi Nan was sitting in his home, not making much movement.

In the war between the two kingdoms, it is not surprising that the Griffin Legion is dispatched. I just don’t know how far this war will go. Chi Nan didn't do anything in the past two days. Instead, he studied the war histories of some nearby kingdoms. War between kingdoms is also a normal occurrence.

Most of them are just small fights, fighting each other, and there are not many truly tragic battles. Large-scale wars that directly annex the opponent's land have not happened many times, and Chi Nan doesn't know what the extent of this one will be.

"Hey, the key is to see how far those nobles want to go. Is it to alleviate domestic pressure, to solve their own problems, or to be ambitious and want to take a step closer. In any case, I will take care of myself. Just do it yourself.”

Time flew by and it was already night in a blink of an eye. On this day, there was not only one army that set out from the royal capital, but several teams secretly left one after another. Chi Nan could vaguely feel it. Although the common people don't know it on the surface, the nobles should still know something about it.

At night, when the time arrived, Chi Nan got up and walked towards the banquet hall next to the kingdom.

"Chi Nan, why did you come out alone? Don't you have a dance partner? I don't have one either, so I'll go with you." As soon as he went out, Chi Nan saw a gorgeously dressed Numisi standing near his door.

Chi Nan smiled and walked up, gently extending his hand: "Thank you so much, Miss Numisi, let's go together."

Numisi put her hand on Chi Nan's and followed him onto the carriage. After getting on the carriage, Numisi said nervously: "Chinan, do you want to go to the battlefield for the next battle?"

"That's right. According to the situation, it should be like this. It just so happens that I also want to test some new weapons."

Numisi was a little disappointed: "I'm so sorry, I can't go with you. My father just sent a letter asking me to go back, saying that the battlefield is too dangerous. Really, I have been to the battlefield before."

Chi Nan smiled. "Okay, your Excellency the Governor is also worried about your safety, so he asked you to go back."

Numisi is indeed very capable, but this war and war are not the same thing. In the past, Numisi was in Remas, and her subordinates were all Remas's own troops. What Numisi participated in the most was just some activities to suppress bandits.

Usually when I stay in the army, I don't encounter any danger. The biggest war was the previous war between Remas and the Wild Orcs, but at that time it was a coalition, and Numisi had no effect.

Perhaps in the governor's mind, Numisi is just a little girl who likes to command the army but has no ability. Besides, of course his children will be worried about their safety. This battle is not in Remas's home field.

"Then you must be careful. With your ability, just stay behind. It's easy to get any credit."

Chi Nan nodded lightly: "Of course I know, don't worry, I'm not going alone, I have my guards as well." He brought a lot of guards with him, and he will definitely take them all away this time.

As for the business in the royal capital? Of course, your own safety is more important. Let's develop our business by ourselves. Even if it fails or something goes wrong, Chi Nan doesn't have to worry about it that much. However, as long as they still want the breath of the forest, they probably won't mess around.

As they were talking, the two people had arrived at the banquet hall. This is on the side of the palace, actually in the palace. The entire venue is very large, and there is a garden outside, which has been decorated magnificently.

"The Second Earl of Chinan and Miss Numisi have arrived." The guard at the door saw them both and shouted loudly.

"You recognized us at a glance. Sure enough, we were prepared. The palace guards are very qualified." Chi Nan said with a smile. Numisi glanced at Chi Nan angrily, how could the banquet not be prepared in advance.
