The King of Knights

Despite the headache, Lucifer insisted on continuing the meeting. After all, he has already taken over the crown, and now is not the time to complain about the past and find a way to solve the current problem. However, some things still need to be said in advance.

“Hostility? This is no longer hostility, but the rhythm of wanting to take advantage of the fact that we have not recovered and do not give the opportunity to directly ask for human life. I won’t ask how much of that ‘lot of land’ still remains, but in the future, I think you can focus on my new national policy. ”

After Lucifer’s words, the four dukes also said that there was no big problem.

“It’s nature.” Gominiad spoke first.

Then came Budica.

“No problem.”

“I will follow the king’s decision.” Joel Jos also expressed his position at the same time.

The only person who did not say anything was Semiramis. She was looking at Lucifer with an artistic gaze, and after a while she spoke slowly.

“I want to remind you, my king, that as you said, the situation in Britain is very dangerous right now. If you don’t solve the immediate matter, I’m afraid there will be no future. ”

Lucifer didn’t say anything big or anything like assurance, he knew that against the Duchess in front of him, it was always more useful to do than to say.

“Duke, what do you know about Holy Rome?” He said directly.

“What do you want to say?” Semiramis subconsciously retracted his smile.

She instinctively thought that Lucifer wanted to use this as an excuse to hold her accountable, but that was just a misunderstanding. Lucifer has never had such an idea, now the enemy is current, don’t say that she has no problem, even if she really has a problem, as long as it has no impact on the current overall situation, Lucifer will pretend not to see it.

“Sorry! There may be something wrong with my statement, and I apologize to you in advance, my lady. I mean, can your intelligence network reach Shinra. Especially the members of the Shinra Elders. ”

Lucifer’s words did not fully explain, but Semiramis already understood what he meant. It’s also her favorite practice.

“Hey, what do you want to do?”

There was no response, but the rhetorical question itself already speaks to her abilities.

“Is it okay to say that it can affect even if it’s only partially. Very good! Tell them that I am willing to talk to them, with money equal to time. Even if our two countries are really at war at the moment, they will not get the slightest benefit, and the battle merits will only belong to the generals and governors. Tell them this. I believe that those people will not live with money. Lucifer carefully analyzed the current situation.

The Senate of Rome has a certain influence in the country, as long as the conditions are well opened, it should not be difficult to use them.

“Stop sending troops? Don’t expect too much from those people, the usual small actions don’t matter. But this decision could not be completed at all, and there was no point in talking to them, especially since they would also worry about the emperor’s wrath. ”

Semiramis immediately poured cold water on Lucifer.

“I’m not naïve enough to rely on them. I mean, let them argue with others about the necessity of this war. There is no need to completely stop it, as long as the time to send troops is delayed, there is no need to anger the emperor at all. Up to two months, with a minimum of one month as the bottom line. As long as they can do it, we will pay them a salary that will make them excited. Lucifer stated his intentions.

If you let those guys directly stop the troops, considering the anger of the Roman emperor, they probably don’t dare to do it. But if it’s just a month of delay, they can do it. After all, talking is what they do best.

Just talking nonsense can take money, and this is not a betrayal of the Motherland. Those senators should be happy to help their wallets.

Semiramis’s eyes lit up and he thought that this method was not bad.

“It’s not hard to do. Where are you going to take this money from? I would like to remind you that…. ”

“The Royal Palace. I looked at the decoration of the palace before, and if nothing else, the royal family should still have a lot of private money. I am now the king, and the money belongs to me. It is not difficult to come up with a part. ”

“The problem of money is solved, and there is one more problem. Only two months, what about two months later? ”

“That’s exactly what I’m trying to say right now. Britain in front of us may seem very dangerous, but the key source is not the north, nor the east, but the south. As long as the French in the south were quickly defeated and forced to make a truce and peace, all problems would not be a problem. Lucifer stood up, pressed his feet on the table, and looked at the four Grand Dukes present.

In the chaotic situation, Lucifer quickly found the crux of the problem. Not north, not east, but south. The north and east sides are at most taking advantage of the fire and looting, and they will retreat if they don’t see the result, but unlike the south, they will not retreat until they are pressed to the ground and rubbed.
