The Face Changing Warrior

Storms are raging in the imperial capital - even ordinary civilians feel that the love money in the imperial capital is a bit wrong these days.

A large number of soldiers from the Central Cavalry Corps lined up to take to the streets, replacing the soldiers from the former imperial capital's police station. They were fully armed to patrol the streets.

The Royal Guards responsible for guarding the palace also looked as if they were facing a major enemy. Almost all of the 50,000 Royal Guards were mobilized. They patrolled the walls of the palace. The gates of the palace were guarded a little more tightly than before. Times!

The entrance and exit inspections of the city gates of the imperial capital are much stricter than in the past. People who enter and exit, whether civilians or nobles, are all subject to strict inspections-these actions have fully demonstrated that the current situation is somewhat wrong.

The high-ranking nobles of the empire all learned the news that the emperor was critically ill, and then the palace officially announced the news that the queen was pregnant with the prince... Be smarter and immediately thought of an important question: the battle for the throne is finally about to be set. Here comes the countertop!

Even some dull-minded guys, after receiving the news that Prince Balang had suddenly returned to the imperial capital from outside the city, they understood--he came back at this time, naturally he was going to fight for the throne!

Nicole almost lived in the palace and stayed by the Queen's side every day-from the bottom of her heart, she didn't like this very much in her heart. Facing a woman whose emotions are somewhat out of control is not a pleasant thing. But Nicole can understand the queen's mood at this time-she is in an extremely flustered, melancholy, and fearful mood!

The only person the queen can rely on at the moment is the Tulip family—in fact, Nicole is so worried that she can’t eat every day.

Commander Gordon passed in one message after another:

Prince Balang is back to the city!

General Bayi, the commander of the Central Cavalry Corps, is in contact with Prince Balang!

The movement in the Central Cavalry Corps barracks is abnormal! The army is gathering!

The Marquis of Caroline and Prince Barang make contact!

The Northern Army began to gather unusually!

Every time Nicole heard a piece of news, her sadness increased a little. According to common sense, the Marquis of Caroline and the Lionheart family are the confidants of His Majesty the Emperor, and they have always been at odds with Prince Barang. At this moment, the most capable force is the Marquis of Caroline.

However, this road was firmly blocked for two reasons!

The discord between the Lionheart family and the Tulip family is well known! Now that the queen relies on herself, it is almost impossible to win over the Lionheart family! The Lionheart family will never stand on the same front as Tulip.

Of course, there are no permanent enemies in politics, and Nicole certainly understands this truth. But now the Marquis of Caroline absolutely understands that at this moment, it is Prince Barang and the child in the belly of the queen who are vying for the throne. Whoever succeeds is the emperor-and now, the Marquis of Caroline is facing a standing position. Problem. If successful in supporting the new emperor, then the Lionheart family will become the greatest contributor to the succession of the new emperor!

This is a great opportunity for the Marquis of Caroline who wants to make the Lionheart family over the tulips and become the first family of the empire!

Moreover, from the current situation, Prince Barang is naturally more likely to win than an unborn baby!

Although the Marquis of Caroline has always been loyal to Abbas XI, he is not a foolish person!

And another reason is: the child in the queen's belly is not the emperor's at all!

What makes Nicole a little relieved is that the Royal Guards are still loyal to the royal family, especially the Gordon commander who has been loyal to her side almost without hesitation!

The Imperial Military Command Department has also clearly rejected Prince Balang’s contact. The old generals of the empire announced that they have maintained their neutrality. Everything will be discussed until the Emperor’s condition improves-God knows if the Emperor has any hope of waking up!

Nicole believes in her heart that once things change drastically, and with the appeal of the Tulip family, the Imperial Command will not hesitate to support her side!

But there is a ridiculous problem!

How much strength does the current imperial commander have?

In order to reduce the influence of the Tulip family, His Majesty has weakened the strength of the Imperial Command in many ways-the four major legions of the empire, the Northern Legion handed over to the Lionheart family of the Marquis of Caroline! The Central Cavalry Corps was in the hands of the royal aristocratic general Bayi-the Northern Corps was originally loyal to Abbas XI (at least Abbas XI himself thought so), but now, in fact, the North The Legion has become a bargaining chip in the hands of the Marquis of Caroline, no doubt now they have fallen to Prince Barang!

And the Central Cavalry Corps-General Bayi has a close relationship with Prince Barang, and now he can't count on it!

At present, only General Elliot, the commander of the Northwest Army, is from the traditional forces of the imperial military and belongs to the command. Naturally, he can count on his support-but the Northwest Rayantal Eagle looks at the wolf, can the Northwest Legion be mobilized back? Besides, after the Northwest War, the Northwest Army was almost maimed! How much strength is left?

The Southern Army Corps is also a traditional force belonging to the military of the High Command. At this moment Roddy is heading south, but there is no news until now...

The Northern Army has already begun to assemble. Although there is no next move yet, God knows when the army will go south and arrive at the Imperial City!

Nicole sighed and tried to sweep away the sadness in her mind, keeping a calm expression on her face. She knew in her heart that now she was almost her backbone. Her Majesty the Queen also relies on her own support-but from the bottom of her heart, Nicole is always a little uneasy...

Is it right to do it yourself? After all, the child in the queen's belly is Set! Not the royal blood! Speaking of it, it is Prince Barang who is the orthodox descendant of the royal family, and his side seems to be conspiring for imperial power...

"Site, Set, is this your conspiracy? Although you are gone, you still firmly control the development of things according to your plan... You tied everyone to your chariot... "

Nicole sighed with hesitation in her eyes.

But, will things really be like this?

•

The soldiers responsible for guarding the gates of the imperial capital have all been replaced by members of the Central Cavalry Corps. A team of soldiers wearing "Thunder God's Whip" uniforms held their hands at the four gates of the imperial capital, and strictly checked the passing of pedestrians-according to Prince Balang's intention, they would simply close the gates and prohibit entry and exit. But at the suggestion of the Marquis of Caroline, he finally dispelled the idea.

After all, I have not yet had a coup, let alone rebellion. His Majesty the Emperor hasn't died yet... If he really ordered the closure of the city gate, he would give his opponent an eloquence!

This afternoon, on a road in the south gate of the imperial capital, a dozen horses were walking slowly. At first it was a fat man with a bloated figure. A horse behind him was a young man with a pale face, but his brows were a little depressed. , A dejected look. Behind them are a dozen people with indifferent expressions, everyone with indifferent eyes and calm expressions.

The fat man looked at the city wall in the distance, turned his head and shouted at the young man on the horse behind him: "Little bat, is that the emperor capital? We are almost here, why are you so downcast?"

The young man behind him smiled bitterly: "You are naturally relaxed, but I am... after all... I have done so many things for you, which is tantamount to betraying Lord Simang. If you get caught, hum... you know Do our blood races punish traitors?"

The fat man raised his eyebrows and exclaimed: "Let me see which one dares! You are now Lao Tzu's attendant, who dares to move you?"

Immediately he looked at the city wall in the distance and said with a grin: "I don't know what the boy Roddy is doing now? Did the lady Nicole who was holding his arms kiss me and me? Alas... this boy looks honest, But it’s very windy. I sent me a girl a few days ago, but it annoys me to death... If I didn’t stare and get angry and took that woman on the road, I don’t know when I will get to the imperial capital. !"

Having said that, the fat man turned his head and shouted at the young man: "I ask you! That kid, when will the injury heal?"

The young man rolled his eyes and said, "There are still seventeen or eight days."

The fat man breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, I hope Dak will be sick for a few more days... Only in this way can the two troublesome women be dragged on for a while..."

Immediately he looked at the imperial capital city wall in front of him and smiled openly: "I don't know if the palace is really that interesting... If the emperor dares to touch the Roddy boy, I will really light his palace and set off fireworks! Hahaha... ...It must be very interesting to take a dozen blood races to make trouble in the palace!"

The young man behind him couldn't help but stabbed him: "In the imperial capital, there is the imperial sorcerer association, and the religious institute of the religion. The pope is also in the imperial capital. If you dare to make a big fuss, most of it will be dead."

The fat man snorted coldly: "What sorcerer association, a bunch of sorcerers, I will see? And what pope, who burned his religious institute on fire! It's not a big deal! But you , You have talked more in the past two days. Is your bones loose?"

The young man shuddered immediately, and immediately squeezed out a smile: "How dare I? Lord Tianlie, you are the sun in the sky, and I am a little firefly, how dare to compete with the sun and the moon?"

Tian Lie was in a good mood and was about to laugh twice when he heard a person jump out of the roadside.

The man was wearing clothes that he didn't know where he had stolen. The sleeves of his trousers seemed to be pieced together. He had a face with a crooked nose and slanted eyes, his hands and feet were of different sizes, and his legs looked like It's almost one long and one short.

The man walked to the middle of the road and shouted: "I drive this road, and I plant this tree. If you want to pass this way...that..."

As soon as he rolled his eyes, he immediately cried out: "Leave a horse!"

silence……

Immediately, Tian Lie burst into a burst of laughter, and laughed almost immediately. The young man on the horse behind him also laughed wildly, looking at the guy standing in the middle of the road with pity in his eyes...

The man in the middle of the road looked at Tian Lie laughing wildly without being angry. He stood there calmly. When Tian Lie’s laughter gradually stopped, he said slowly: "What are you laughing at? My old man and you Is it ridiculous to ask for a horse?"

Tian Lie raised his eyebrows, and the young man behind him immediately flew up, stretched out a paw and grabbed the man...

Hearing a scream, the young man flew out and hung himself on a tree by the side of the road!

"Huh?" Tian Lie's eyes lit up with a weird expression on his face. He stared at the guy standing in the middle of the road and couldn't help but said, "You are a thief who is a bit capable..."

The man curled his mouth, grinned, and said, "Then you give me a horse and let me go on the road with you."

Tian Lie's eyes widened, and he held back a smile: "What did you say?"

The man sighed and said loudly: "Now the gates of the imperial capital are heavily guarded, I don't have the ability to fly around in broad daylight... I'm like this, most of them won't let me enter the city... So, I had to Please do me a favor."

After finishing speaking, this person sat on the ground with a carefree attitude. That posture seemed to mean: "If you don't agree, I won't give way!"

Tian Lie rubbed his nose vigorously, and said with a smile: "You guy, it seems that you are not too talented. Someone blocked the city gate, so you can just break in, or fly in from above. I'm afraid it's not too difficult... "

The man turned his eyes and looked at Tian Lie like an idiot, and said in a strange manner: "Don’t you know that the Imperial Capital is now more guarded than before? It is said that vampires appeared in the Imperial Capital a few days ago. The religious institute sent a large number of sorcerers to patrol the city. Did you fly in? Just as soon as you flew to the sky, seven or eight sorcerers surrounded the city! It’s not difficult to get into the city, but it’s turned upside down, what else should I do? thing?"

After saying this, he whispered to himself in a voice that only he could hear: "Aren't the domain experts so mindless?"

Tian Lie's eyes widened: "What did you say?"

The man chuckled and said, "You fellow, you borrowed a horse from me and let me follow you into the city. It's good for you and me..."

Tian Lie rolled his eyes, looked at the person in front of him, his curiosity became more and more serious, his hands were itchy, and he wanted to go up and beat him up--the thief who dared to beat Master Jie Tianlie, would he still live?

But looking at this guy's mysterious and weird appearance, he couldn't help but feel curiosity again in his heart-Tian Lie's curiosity was the heaviest, and this was almost his biggest flaw.

"Okay!" At last the fat man gritted his teeth and waved his hand: "Give you a horse, and you will enter the city with us. I will see what tricks you do. The more weird things are, I will be interested in Lao Tzu. !"

Hearing these words, the man on the ground grinned, jumped up, and sat down on the horse of the young man just now.

Then Tian Lie shouted to the young man hanging on the tree: "Little bat, if you are not dead, you should hurry up. If it's late, be careful that I will take care of you!"

Having said this, he rode a horse and whip to lead the way towards the imperial capital.

On the horse behind him sat the strange man. The person seemed to sigh: "Well, this is interesting. A fat man with a weird mind is a domain expert. I don't know what is going to cause trouble in the Imperial Capital... Oh, boy Roddy, you Why don't you show up yet? My old man will surprise you!"

`

Mr. Qiu stood outside the hall, quietly looking at the clouds in the sky. His complexion was calm, but his heart was indeed surging...he hardly dared to see the queen again these days. Every time he saw the queen's resentful gaze, his calm heart immediately became confused...

Nicole didn't know when she came behind him. Looking at Mr. Qiu's back, she sighed in a low voice.

Mr. Qiu suddenly turned around and smiled: "Miss Nicole, what are you sighing for?"

Nicole’s charming face showed a trace of sadness, and said in a low voice: "Mr. Qiu, I know your heart is very bitter... You are driving Sete away for the sake of your Majesty the Queen... But you have to understand that the Queen does not I don’t really hate you, it’s just that when a woman falls in love, there’s no reason."

Mr. Qiu shook his head and said lightly: "I know, I know all of these. I am not upset for her...I am for myself."

"yourself?"

"Yes." Mr. Qiu looked at the sky, with a bitter smile on his face: "I am laughing at myself. I have broken through kendo and reached the ultimate martial arts, I have reached the realm that others dream of, the world's best Big, where can’t I go? But I’m still waiting in the palace for her... Don’t you think I’m sad? A person, even if he has the strength of a peerless powerhouse, how about? The human heart is inherently fragile Even though you can control everything in the world, you cannot control your own heart."

Nicole was silent, looking at the sky with Mr. Qiu's gaze, with a helpless expression on her face.

She thought of the current situation again in her heart-will things really go on step by step according to Set's plan?

At this moment, there were rushing footsteps in the distance behind him, Gordon commanded a suit of armor and ran in stride, saw Miss Nicole, and said loudly: "Miss! The Pope is down! He asked to see Your Majesty the Queen!"

"Your Majesty the Pope?" Nicole frowned. What is he doing? Is it possible that the religious cults who have always been aside from the struggle for imperial power have to join in?

She glanced at Mr. Qiu, did not speak, and immediately left with Gordon.

A wry smile appeared at the corner of Mr. Qiu's mouth...

He suddenly remembered the words before Seth disappeared: "Mr. Qiu, I remind you that the Pope has known your secret long ago..."

After sighing, Mr. Qiu smiled bitterly: "Already know it? Did I hide my strength for so long, hiding my strength, not daring to be noticed, and finally being discovered by him?"
