Yes, on this important occasion of the new emperor's ascension to the throne, everyone noticed that one important person was missing.
Among the crowd who had previously pledged allegiance, people quickly noticed that there was an empty seat at the very front of the civil servants. Yes, as the head of civil servants, Prime Minister Taillard did not attend such an important occasion, which still surprised many people.
It is true that they have also heard the news of Taillard's illness. They knew about it a few days ago. However, being sick is sick, and the new emperor's enthronement ceremony is such an important occasion that he did not attend. Either it is really too sick, or... what happened?
Everyone's first reaction was that Prime Minister Taillard must have been killed by the new emperor. Because Linton hacked the ministers really smoothly. Although Taillard said that he was sick these days, everyone went to visit and saw no one. Taillard completely refused to receive visitors.
This makes people think that Taillard has been chopped off by Linton. If we don't announce it now, it's just because the new emperor directly kills the prime minister. of. This kind of operation is not unheard of. For example, the queen of the previous dynasty also "died of illness"?
Yes, this former court is talking about Linton's father-in-law, Yalan's father Wigley. Didn't his queen rebel with the Duke of Rennes, and died in the palace afterwards. But this is actually how it was done. Linton killed the person first, but he didn't announce it to the public. After a while, he announced that the person had died of illness.
Many of the ministers actually knew what was going on, but these truths are not important at all. The more you know, the sooner you will die, let alone the emperor who Linton likes the minister so much.
So I haven't seen Tairad for a few days, and someone has already whispered that the Tairad people are gone. Anyway, the last time he saw him was when he went to find Linton, and he hasn't seen anyone since then.
Of course, regardless of the rumors, Taillard is still alive. He is really sick now, and he is completely angry at Linton.
After hearing about Linton's so-called big plan, Taillard really smoked it on the spot, can he still do it like this? And now Taillard is indeed recuperating at home, and the reason for not seeing guests is not because of confidentiality considerations.
Taillard knew very well that although Linton didn't know what was going on here, he didn't dare to spread the matter. If the news got out, a large number of ministers would probably go to persuade the new emperor soon, and then... Linton probably got annoyed and hacked a group of them to death on the spot.
And as one of the few people who knew about Linton's plan, if the news got out, Linton would definitely feel that he was the one who got it out. It couldn't be Linton himself or Yalan and Jola who stabbed it out, there were only a few people present at that time. And Tyrade didn't know what was going on with Jorah and Yalan at all.
He himself would certainly not take the initiative to say it everywhere, but if any spy or the like really revealed this matter, he would definitely be suspected by Linton. So in order to avoid suspicion, he directly closed the door to thank the guests, since he was really sick anyway.
Linton didn't think too much about it, and he didn't care whether the news would be exposed. But when someone came up to persuade him and annoyed him, Linton must have stabbed him on the spot, and Taillard guessed it right. ....
On his side, he also simply thinks that Taillard is very useful, not to mention his professional skills, and his work is also quite reliable. He really didn't want to replace him with a familiar butler who had even named him.
Knowing that the other party was sick in bed, Linton once wanted to pull the other party up and continue working. The pull up mentioned here is the literal meaning of pull up. Linton didn't know how to turn a sick person into a healthy person, but he knew how to turn a dead person into a living person. He felt that it would be faster to save him if he killed him directly.
But before Linton lost his mind, he was stopped by Yalan next to him. Yalan said that Taillard helped her with a lot of things when Linton was away, so can she let this little old man who is about to retire? Stop torturing him.
Linton's suggestion to his wife was kind, saying that he could wait, and if he still couldn't get up, he would hack him to death on the spot.
So the preparations for the enthronement ceremony were handed over to other ministers to prepare.
Ladd just rested for several days, and has not returned to work until now.
Back to the current situation, because Taillard asked for sick leave, Linton didn't tell others that he had a big plan, so the other ministers were only prepared according to the general enthronement ceremony. The list in Linton's hands is really just a list of participants. If Taillard had prepared it, he would have helped Linton to select it, but it was a pity that he passed it.
That inexplicably declared his vassal state, which made Linton a little confused now. After thinking about it, Linton chose to skip this step directly, picked up the list and looked at the next name.
"Is the envoy of the Looferard Empire here?" Linton read directly.
"Oh?" An ambassador in the group of ambassadors next to him made a strange voice. He was naturally the ambassador of the Looferard Empire, but he didn't know why Linton called him.
It cannot be said that the Loofirard Empire and the Yin Lan Holy Empire have nothing to do with each other, it can only be said that they are completely irrelevant. The two empires are separated by a long distance, and it is not a question of whether they will meet or not. Apart from meeting each other on diplomatic occasions, they simply do not know each other at other times.
It is estimated that most of the people of the two countries have never heard of each other, and they obviously don't know that there is such a country on this continent.
They don't know each other at all, and of course they don't have any kindness or enmity, just a simple and unrelated relationship.
To be honest, sending an envoy from the Looferrad Empire this time is considered an act of goodwill. After all, the reputation of the new empire in the entire continent is now at its peak. Although the emperor of the Looferard Empire didn't even know where the Yin Lan Holy Empire was, there shouldn't be anything wrong with showing kindness to the strong.
But he was wrong. It never occurred to him that a show of favor could also show a problem. And it's not that they did anything wrong, it's just that they happen to be on this list. Because that's the list for the ceremony, and by the time you decide to come, something has happened.
"You bastard! How dare you humiliate our Yinlan Holy Empire? You're deceiving our empire?" When Linton saw the position of the other ambassador, he slammed the table violently as usual to grab everyone's attention. ....
"Huh?" The ambassador of the Looferard Empire looked confused. We have nothing to do with your empire. Even the last diplomatic meeting at the ambassadorial level was more than ten years ago. This kind of humiliation is Where did it come from?
The ambassador didn't know how to respond to this inexplicable situation, and was stunned for a while. As for Linton, of course, he still had no idea what was going on with the other party. Just as he was about to declare war, a voice came from the police next to him.
"Well, His Majesty Emperor Linton, our side..." The person who spoke was Sakamp, the ambassador of the Kingdom of Scraton, who had just been proclaimed. He also wanted to ask what was going on, how they were announced by their suzerain country for no reason, why did you suddenly get skipped by explaining the situation clearly?
"Shut up! Do you have a place to speak? Didn't you see that serious matters are being discussed here? You still say that you are loyal to the Yin Lan Holy Empire? Look at your attitude, you said you were declared, and you were wronged Already?" Linton shouted directly.
"Uh..." Sa Camp was stunned, could he not be in a hurry? As far as their small country, the Skreton Kingdom, survived by relying on a big empire like the Yin Lan Holy Empire, they certainly didn't have any thoughts of being rude to the suzerain country, let alone any humiliation.
Now that Linton's messing up really made Sakamp not know what to do, he announced them first when he came up, do you think they can be in a hurry? If you still don't let me ask about this matter, if you ask, you will have a bad attitude. Isn't this driving them to death?
"Go back and ask your king to prepare his army for war. It's time to teach you a lesson, so that you understand what is suzerain and what is vassal!" Linton said with a wave of his hand.
"No, Your Majesty the Emperor, we have no intention of going against the empire at all, we have always been loyal to the empire." Sakamp shouted anxiously. As far as their small kingdom is concerned, how many troops can the entire country gather? 2000? 3000?
Facing the Yin Lan Holy Empire, which randomly pulled out an army of 700,000, who would dare to commit such a death. Linton
And let them go back to prepare for war? Prepare a fart, what is there to prepare for.
"Huh? You mean that we have wronged you? Then you are so loyal, you dare to question the suzerain." Linton said, "Come on, take this guy out and kill him, and send his head back to you." Their king, prepare him to meet our host."
"No...Your Majesty, you are wronged, Your Majesty..." Sakamp really felt wronged, but of course he couldn't do anything and was dragged away. As for their small vassal state, it is impossible for anyone to speak for them. Originally, what they could rely on was the blessing of the suzerain Yinlan's holy empire, but now that Linton wanted to mess with them, they had no choice.
Asuna next to her raised her forehead. The others didn't understand the situation, and they probably thought that the Kingdom of Skreton might have done something in private to offend the suzerain. Because if they didn't do it, Linton, a small country like this, probably wouldn't spend much energy dealing with them, it's pointless. They don't care what the Skreton Kingdom did, because such a small country is not important at all.
But Yalan knew that her husband became angry again, and Sakamp was really just unlucky. .
