After the army marched south for two days, the temperature gradually increased.
The empire is in autumn, and the weather in early autumn does not feel hot and dry, and a cool breeze blows from time to time makes people refreshed.
The current location has penetrated into the territory of the empire, and the imperial capital is right in front of us.
Finally arrived, the imperial capital is the main battlefield,
Gradually approaching the imperial capital, you will occasionally encounter merchants on the main road. When these merchants see the army, they immediately drive their carriages to give way, their heads lowered, and they dare not look directly at the army.
But after seeing the blue-haired female general at the head of the team, the merchants were obviously a little surprised.
"General Esdes is back, hasn't she rushed to the battlefield in the extreme north?"
"not¡¡"
A peddler dared not speak further.
"Don't talk nonsense, look at the momentum of the army. Is this what it looks like after a defeat? It's clearly a triumphant return."
"But a battle of that scale will take at least a year and a half."
The merchants whispered, the previous fear and resentment had dissipated.
If the empire has an army that is supported by the common people, it must be the current one.
The marching direction of the army is not inside the imperial capital, but the military camp outside the imperial capital. The news of the victory in the extreme north has been sent back. In front of the military camp, there are three generals who are waiting for the return of Esthers. All three are Teigu envoys, collectively referred to as the Three Beast Warriors.
Among the three are an old man, a strong man, and a cute girl?
Dressed as an old butler, his name is Liwa. He is a former general of the empire. He was imprisoned for offending the powerful and powerful, and was rescued by Esdes later. He has a high degree of loyalty. Tools that can manipulate any liquid.
The name of the strong man is Daidas, the battle madman, and the name of the Teigu is 'Two Big Axes Belwak'. The two big axes are usually one, and can be disassembled from the middle. After the ax is thrown, as long as the ax returns If you have power, you will track down the enemy.
The last 'girl' dressed as a cute girl is called Niu. Although this guy looks like a cute girl, she is actually a cute girl, meaning a man in women's clothes.
Niu's Teigu is "Military Music Dream¡¤Scream", this kind of Teigu is a flute, playing different music can manipulate the enemy's emotions and physical state, and it is an auxiliary Teigu.
The three of them were standing straight in front of the barracks at this time, and after seeing Esdeth's figure, the three of them immediately went forward.
"General, you have worked hard all the way, and your subordinates have prepared a welcome banquet for you."
The old man Liwa spoke, and leaned forward while speaking, with one hand on his chest, the white gloves on his hand and the clothes he wore looked like a housekeeper. He was the captain of the Three Beast Warriors.
"I don't need the banquet yet, I will take you to meet the little emperor later, but first introduce you to a colleague."
The three beast warriors were a little puzzled.
"Colleagues? Could it be that the general recruited talents in the extreme north."
"Well, this time I found a treasure and took in an Anbu from another country."
Hearing what Esdeth said, the old man Liwa frowned slightly. Members of the assassination team generally have complicated backgrounds.
Keliva won't say anything, this is Esdesh's will, and he won't defy it.
"Let me tell you in advance that your colleague is the top-level member of the assassination team. I have fought against him before. If you use your ability to fight alone, your strength may not be weaker than mine."
The three beast warriors were shocked, and looked at Esdeth in a daze.
"Strengthnot weaker than you, the general?"
**Cute girl Niwu swallowed, his voice was neutral.
"White Night."
Esdeth shouted to the rear of the army, and the three beast warriors stared in that direction.
A man with black hair and black eyes with a long knife on his waist came. The man's figure was not burly, but he gave off a sense of sharpness. .
"This is your future colleague, Bai Ye."
Estes looked at Su Xiao.
"These three are also my subordinates."
"Um."
Su Xiao replied that he had recognized three people.
The three-person group is called the Three Beast Warriors. Although they are not weak, they can all receive lunch in the next mission. Among them, the strong man died the most simply, and he was killed within five minutes of playing.
"Pay attention to the tone of your conversation with the general."
The old man Liwa spoke with a bad look.
"Don't pay attention to this, Bai Ye's character is like this, the members of the top assassination forces have flaws in character, he is the most normal."
"I took the liberty, General."
Liva bows again??.
Su Xiao didn't care about Liwa's tone, why should he have trouble with a guy who just came out and took a box.
"It's getting late, let's go meet His Majesty."
The four of them boarded a carriage and went to the imperial capital. The imperial capital covers a large area and is a large city. The whole city is in the shape of steps, the higher the center is, the higher it is.
The center of the imperial capital is the imperial palace, which can be called the city within the imperial capital, which shows how large the imperial palace is.
The entire imperial palace is a bloated circular shape, with layers of pointed buildings, and the highest point is even hundreds of meters.
The carriage passed through the imperial capital, and there were many pedestrians on the streets of the imperial capital, dressed in gorgeous clothes. This is the capital of a country, and economic prosperity is a matter of course.
The sun hangs listlessly on the horizon, and the entire imperial capital is shrouded in dim sunlight. It is already six o'clock in the evening.
The carriage drove to the front of the palace, which was supposed to be a heavily guarded place, but after seeing the sign on the carriage, the guards in front of the door only asked a simple question and let Esdes show up.
The scope of the palace is not small, and the carriage arrived in front of the main hall of the palace after driving for a while.
This made Su Xiao a little surprised. You must know that this is the palace, how could the general drive the carriage to the front of the hall? Get off outside the palace and walk to the main hall.
It seems that the little emperor is more useless than imagined, at least Esthers doesn't care much about the little emperor.
Get off the car and enter the main hall. The main hall is very solemn, with a red carpet on the ground, and a gold-cast seat on the innermost side. The seat is higher, which is the emperor's table.
A thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy is sitting on the seat. This is the little emperor.
The little emperor was thin and weak, giving the impression that he was a little malnourished, and his purple clothes were even more nondescript, making him look a bit sissy.
Although he is an emperor, he has no sense of majesty. Su Xiao feels that this is a very imaginary boy.
Esdes took Su Xiao and the others into the main hall, walked a few meters in front of the little emperor, and knelt on the ground.
Rather than saying that Esdeth is half-kneeling, it is better to say that she is half-squatting on the ground, and the leg that was kneeling did not touch the ground. This posture explains a lot of problems.
Looking at the little emperor again, his complexion hasn't changed, it seems that this is a normal situation.
Su Xiao also followed suit, squatting halfway, kneeling is absolutely impossible.
At this moment, he had already considered whether to capture the little emperor, and the young man looked like a soft persimmon.
Beside the little emperor stood a fat old man with a big beard.
The obese middle-aged man has white beard and hair, but because of his fat body, his skin has no wrinkles. The rich clothes and good food make this old man look old. If he is not full of gray hair, people will believe that he is a middle-aged man.
This fat old man is the minister, the minister who controls the little emperor.
The minister held a plate of meat in his hand and stood beside the little emperor with his big belly. The plate of meat was for him to eat, not for the little emperor.
After a preliminary observation of the situation, Su Xiao decided to give up. He was not sure whether the key was in the little emperor's body, which required a long-term plan
