Chapter 115 Take office

A fiery red cloak was like a ball of burning fire, and horse boots made a crisp sound on the ground of the corridor, like a sudden horse galloping. Four servants followed behind tremblingly, and even a trot could not catch up with the steps of Grand Duke Butani.

He just returned from the army, and the domestic situation is so tense. The big bosses in the army must appease him. He must rely on the army to suppress the various contradictions. At this time, the army is in chaos.

The footsteps stopped at the entrance of the magnificent bedroom. The ground inside was covered with long carpets. Even if you stepped on it, you would not make any sound. The handsome face of the Grand Duke Butani had an unconcealed anger, and his cheeks were ashen, which made the maids who were in and out bow down in fear until the Grand Duke disappeared in front of him like a gust of wind. He didn't dare to raise his head.

In the bedroom, a charming woman was sitting in front of the dressing table, combing her hair. She had just come out of the shower, wearing a pair of snow-feets and a soft and white robe. Her whole body was wrapped in a soft robe, and her seductive curves were looming.

Her beauty is the stunning and sexy feeling that comes out at first sight. Her beauty is the water droplets on the insteps, which makes men willing to lick off as sweet dewdrops and gently with the tip of their tongue when they see it.

The fresh and charming melon-shaped face, thin willow eyebrows, was half-covered by the fiery red brows; the straight nose as straight as jade, and the tender little mouth made people want to kiss it; she is Elizabeth Susu, the queen of the Apia Kingdom, and the current Lady of the Grand Duke Butani.

She was already a young woman, but she was as curvy as a girl. Her pink and jade-carved skin was less plump as a young woman, but she had a girlish skin. Inside her soft and half-open robe, the naked delicate pigeon breasts were like half an upside-down jade bowl, soft and white, with two fishy red spots on the top of the peak, like a scorched agate on the snow ball.

Her lips were slightly raised, her expression was a little lonely, and she was arrogant, which easily made men unable to resist the desire to conquer and destroy while they developed a pity.

Grand Duke Butani had rushed to her back, holding a horse whip in his hand, and his blue face was chilling. His figure had been projected into the mirror, but Queen Elizabeth seemed to have not seen him, and still slowly combed her fiery red hair.

"I hope that you can let the people of Apiah know who is the master of this country!" Grand Duke Butani spoke coldly.

"What's wrong with my people? They have always been kind and gentle, like mules, and they always know how to give but not ask for it. I don't know how to blame them." Queen Elizabeth said lazily without looking back.

The combination of Grand Duke Butani and Elizabeth Susu was first praised as a combination of the golden boy and jade girl. A few days ago, Von Hell's army approached the capital, and the queen guarding Kyoto called on the whole country to serve the king and fight against the war, and strongly supported Grand Duke Butani's military operations.

Although countries are now very cautious about the ambition of Grand Duke Butani, they still deeply admire the tacit understanding and feelings between the couple. However, now it seems that their relationship is not as good as the legends outside.

"Is that true? They are as sinister and cunning as you!" The Lord Butani roared angrily, and the loud voice echoed in the inner hall, which scared the maids to avoid: "I have had enough of their slanderous disobedience! These damn untouchables! They evade taxes and shirked my decrees. Now, they reject Butani's currency inflow, causing the entire principality to be in a depression. This is all their good things."

Her delicate eyebrows frowned, and the ivory comb was placed under the dressing table with a snap. Queen Elizabeth turned around gracefully and faced the Grand Duke Butani, her clear eyes with a sarcastic smile: "The Butani coins can now depreciate eight times a day. If you buy a chicken, you need to hold a bulky Butani banknote like a cow. Anyone with a little brain will refuse to accept this currency. Although the people of Appia are kind, they are not stupid. If I were to do this, I would do it like this."

She stood up, floating past the Lord Butani, and turned a blind eye to him. The Lord angry pulled her arm and roared: "Stop it, your husband hasn't finished his words yet!"

"Let me go!" Elizabeth Susu suddenly screamed. She swung her hand, and her slender arm actually broke free from the palm of the grandfather. With this force, the strap of the nightgown was pulled open, and the robe swung open, revealing a graceful and erotic body inside.

The delicate neck curves of the girlish body and the small and firm breasts are enough to make people saliva, let alone the delicate and stylish willow waist, the slender legs like pink and jade-like, and the round and fragrant buttocks that are well-proportioned and strong as virgins. Her body is only wearing a small garland, and the wonderful appearance is revealed, which is very attractive.

"My people provide you with food and to keep your soldiers; my people pay taxes for you to forge weapons; when you are attacked by others and bring the enemy into the country, causing people's hearts to fluctuate and the minds of the army change, it is me who rely on the firm support of the people of Apiah to let you have no worries. Now, are you shirking the consequences of the defeat on them?"

She has a petite figure, but she is not afraid of the tall, big Duke Butani, who is known as a lion, has no fear. Her pretty face turned red and she clenched her pink fists and yelled loudly.

The grand duke said in a slower tone, "Susu, it's not that I want to blame you, but that the Apiya territory is actually causing trouble for me. They have refused to believe in the Holy Church of Light so far, and the nobles of Butani have made many remarks about this. If I hadn't mediated it, they would have long since cleared out the Goddess of Hope as heresy.

Now they refuse to accept the currency of the Principality, and the transactions between the two places are almost completely stopped. They are in the north, and my Principality of Butani borders Norman and Cloa. Now the only trade port to the north is in the north. They refuse to trade. Even if the merchants of Butani travel directly through Apia and communicate with the northern countries, they have to pay huge taxes along the way, and no one can afford such a high cost."

"I'm sorry, my husband, as a hereditary grand duke, you should understand a truth. My vassal is not my vassal. As the queen of Apiah, I cannot restrict those city lords, and lords exercise their rights in their territory!"

Those beautiful eyes narrowed: "Duke, when you win, all the scenery belongs to you; when you fail, all the reasons belong to others, this is the place where you fail the most.

In fact, putting down your arrogant airs and using your intelligence and talent may not be able to think of a solution. Don’t count this guilt on my head.”

After she said that, she turned around and left, "Stop! You haven't listened to me gently for me to finish my words!"

Grand Duke Butani couldn't listen to the accusations and lessons. Although what Queen Elizabeth said was very reasonable, he was still furious and reached out to grab it. He pulled the nightgown off.

The Grand Duke's wife is now only wearing a close-fitting robe as thin as a cicada's wings, but she goes to the outside without looking back. She can tell that she has a very graceful figure when she is wearing a nightgown, but now she takes off her nightgown.

The underwear is white, and because of its soft and close body, it looks beautiful on the buttocks. The two charming mounds appear very prominent under the slender waist. There are many women with graceful figures, but there are not many extremely perfect gourd curves like her.

The most conspicuous thing was her shoulder, which was covered with a rose as big as a bowl of mouth, which was bright and colorful. The delicate skin that was so shattered that it made her delicate body full of wild charm. The feeling was indescribable.

"Is there anything else? My grandfather, I have fulfilled all the responsibilities that a wife should do!"

Somehow this sentence angered Butani. A sharp roar sounded, and he raised the horse whip in his hand, and with a "pop", the horse whip whipped without hesitation on the crystal clear skin.

Queen Susu's delicate body was so clever that she felt so clever. The underwear was ripped and a blood mark seemed to be visible. Blood quickly oozed out. The blood wet the underwear and flowed onto the roses, and the roses seemed to have turned into freshness.

The queen clenched her fists, and two angry flames ignited in her eyes, but she didn't say anything, just gritted her teeth and continued to walk forward, only showing an extremely resentful sneer on her lips, but Grand Duke Butani never saw it.

Grand Duke Butani couldn't bear it anymore. He wandered around the room for a while, suddenly kicked Jin Dun and hit the mirror with a bang. Several cracks suddenly appeared in the mirror, and his image in the mirror became ferocious.

The Grand Duke whipped another whip on the carpet hatefully, then left. Returning to his office study, he sat heavily on the chair, the Grand Duke held his forehead in annoyance. He had never suffered any setbacks since he was a child. After he succeeded as the Grand Duke, he had always been invincible. With him, flowers and applause were always accompanied by him, and he could not bear the blow of failure.

But this time he was defeated, and he was pushed off the altar by Von Hell with a heavy blow. I heard that Von Hell has been framed to death in the internal struggle of the Principal of Norman. Once Von Hell died, he would never be able to recover this shame.

The operation of the government requires money as lubricant. Now, after his first defeat, he wants to make a comeback, and it is time to use money, but the economy has encountered great difficulties. The entire principality is his country, and he cannot rob it, and it is not his strength to govern the economy. This really bothers him very much.

If this continues, it would be easy to say otherwise, the most worrying thing is the mutiny of the army. Butani had long abolished the knight service system and implemented the recruitment system. It would be difficult to maintain without military pay, and the big men in the army actually refused to accept Butani coins.

He rubbed his eyebrows irritatedly, and unexpectedly remembered what Cardinal Christopher said: "Hisser Dagong, I know your plight very well. I am willing to agree to your request to help you solve your current troubles. But... you know, it is not easy to make believers willingly take out money.

They are devout in faith, and this is the only viable aspect that allows them to help the government of the Principality. If you can ban the existence of the Hope Goddess..., of course, this may cause forceful resistance from a small number of radical opponents in the area, but I believe that the army of the Grand Duke can quickly calm the civil unrest, or... it is completely left to my Knights."

The eldest prince rubbed his forehead in distress and sighed like a trapped beast in his mouth.

When he heard that Emperor Tagore wanted to recruit him as his son-in-law, he hurriedly married Queen Elizabeth Susu, and thought that he would kill two birds with one stone, which would not only conceal personal affairs, but also strengthen his own strength.

Unexpectedly, the little Queen Apiah was not so easy to control. The hasty union of the two countries left so many troubles, and what was hidden in Elizabeth Susu's delicate and petite body was a rebellious heart that was no less than him.

Is it really using force? But in that case, Bishop Christopher must take the opportunity to arrange his people to engage in politics. In order to obtain the support of the religion, he has made enough concessions. He must not let these charlatans be on par with his ruler like the Ross Empire and point fingers at everything he has done.

"I am the only one, supreme!"

Grand Duke Butani put down his hands, and his eyes gradually emitted a fierce light: "This is what you forced me, a stinky bitch, my patience is limited. If my difficulties cannot be solved, then... let Apia blood flow into a river."

"Dear Evlin, are you worried again?" He put his hands on his strong and powerful shoulders, then slid to his broad and white forehead, and stroked affectionately.

The Grand Duke's study was where he usually handled state affairs. There were often mountains of files piled up on the table. He was very diligent, so he even set up a bed next to him. Sometimes he would sleep here late at night when handling official duties. So this is actually the place where the Grand Duke stayed the most in the palace. Even the Grand Duke's wife was not allowed to enter without permission.

Now someone broke in without notice and dared to call his nickname affectionately. Grand Duke Butani immediately knew who was coming.

He sighed deeply, straightened his waist, leaned tiredly on the back of the chair, raised his face and said, "The Duchy of Butani has been passed down for thousands of years. Every generation of grand dukes is called Grand Duke Butani, and then they die and are obliterated in the long river of history. The new generation continues to use this name forever.

I want to have a name that belongs to me. In a thousand years, as long as I mention it, everyone will remember it as me. But it is so difficult. If I lose a battle, I can quickly cheer up. The domestic problems that cannot be solved with swords are the problems that make me feel very troubled. I hate those hypocritical politics, Tserney, I am really tired."

Standing behind him was a burly and handsome palace guard, with gorgeous uniforms and golden tassels. He seemed to be of good quality. He also had thick blonde hair, divine eyes, and sexy lips, full of mature male charm.

"My sweetheart, you should have some effective ministers to assist you so that you can save some thoughts." Tsainey said, kissing Grand Duke Butany gently, and it looked very sweet.

Grand Duke Butani smiled, stood up and hugged him, and said softly: "Like Grand Duke Norman? No, I must take all power in my own hands. My Tsainey, only when you are by my side can I forget my worries."

The two hugged each other and kissed each other passionately, gradually retreated to the edge of the bed, and then Grand Duke Butani fell on his back.

While kissing him gently, Tsini unbuttoned his clothes, as if he was looking at his beloved woman. Grand Duke Butani looked at him affectionately. As soon as his snow-white and plump chest was exposed, he held the guard Tsini passionately. The two of them entangled again in a "silly" sound...

"Welcome to you, Commander Picasso, Commander Jady!" Level 4 Knight Elliot introduced them to the headquarters of the Blood Rose Knights with an excited smile.

He was stabbed by the ruble of the Knights of the Radiant in the battle of the suburbs of the city, and witnessed these two young knights of the sect showing their power and making the unscrupulous Holy Sect of Light. Elliot was very happy that they could be promoted to the Executive Deputy Commander of the Knights of the Blood Rose.

Jady retained the title of Paladin, which was the result of the joint discussion between the three Paladin bosses and the high priest Garfield.

Putting aside the contribution of Jady's delivery of a large amount of gold to the country, his martial arts and his former performance in the political and officialdom also show that he is definitely a top-notch talent. What the Blood Rose Knights lacks most now is the talent that can become a soul figure.

No matter whether this paladin is qualified or not, he must raise the wrong ones. The dying Hope Goddess Church now needs a hero and a role model to boost the morale of the army and attract more young people who admire heroes to join, so as not to be disobedient.

Because he was given the title of Paladin, he became the first deputy commander, while Picasso was the second deputy commander. The offices of the two were next to each other. This was an ancient church-style building with colorful glass windows, the room was vast and the light was severely insufficient.

The room was filled with mold, and the original color could no longer be seen on the floor. The statue of the goddess of hope was enshrined on the altar. Only two eternal lights were lit in front of the shrine, and they were not very bright. It seemed that the financial situation of the Blood Rose Knight was very unhappy.

"I'm sorry, two adults, this was the office of the clerk before, so it was a bit messy. Your two offices were inside, on the left is Captain Jedi's room, and on the right is Captain Picasso's, which has been cleaned."

The two of them walked into their offices and looked at them. They could see that the place had been cleaned with all their hearts. The office of the deputy commander was very clean and the decoration was pretty good.

"Hey, this won't work. Elliot, come and see!" Brother Picasso shouted.

Elliot hurried in: "Captain!"

"Look, such a narrow window is blocked with such thick glass, and it is so colorful and dim. Should we light candles on the table when the sun is shining?"

"Grand leader, this ancient style was Victorian..."

"No! Everything is improving! Ancient styles should be thrown into the garbage dump! In the Victorian era, thousands of years ago, people did not brush their teeth, and they were even afraid of taking a bath. A knight or woman only took a bath twice in her life, and had to constantly spray perfume on her body. The more she sprayed, the more smelled it became. Are you not taking a bath now?

Please remember that in addition to the eternal belief in the great goddess of hope, everything will change with time and place. People who are unresolved will also be swept into the garbage dump by the times. Replace me with thin and transparent glass and skylights."

"Yes, the leader," Elliot had no choice but to agree.

"Tsk tsk tsk, the sofa and seats are so old that I feel like a judge from the Inquisition when I sit on it. What is this? Is it a document?"

Picasso picked up a thick file and opened it for a while.

"Oh, no, this is about the doctrines, Scriptures and other books of the Goddess of Hope. Every knight in our Blood Rose Knights must memorize and remember all the commandments of God and the sages." Eliot said proudly.

"This is terrible!"

Picasso said in disbelief: "We are knights! We are the swordsman! We are war horses under our feet, war songs in our mouths, we are knights who use force to defend the dignity of God! I think I know more about practice than you. Have you heard of this saying that the same destination is the same?

There are many roads to practice, and walking on the sword is one of them. Well, engrave this sentence on the door so that every knight who comes in can see it, and write: Knight is a person who uses sword to practice faith. That's it, by the way, take me away this pile of things thicker than the dictionary!"

"Yes!" Elliot just made things difficult for a moment and followed the order, because Captain Garfield, the nominal supreme commander of the Knights, was not very responsible. Since the two deputy commanders, he had been drunk for three consecutive days. Elliot knew that in the future, the head of the entire Knights would be the two commanders in front of him.

Elliot went out with a stack of religious sacred books that were higher than his head.

Jady held her arms and kept smiling at him. As soon as Elliot left, Jady immediately walked over and sat down on the sofa.

With a "bang", Jady immediately became much shorter.

Picasso hurried over and said excitedly: "What's wrong? What did you find? Is there any mechanism? Ancient cellars, treasures, magic scrolls, the beauty princess who have been sleeping for thousands of years..." He said, his saliva was about to flow out.

Jady knocked his head with a lot of laughter and cry: "Don't think about it, it's just that the spring of the sofa is too old and has lost its elasticity!"

"Oh!" Picasso was disappointed and sat down next to him with a "bang". After pressing the two of them, the sofa was approaching the ground.

"Haha", Jedi looked at Picasso with interest. The intriguing smile and eyes made Picasso, who deliberately pretended to turn a blind eye, gradually became uneasy. He moved his butt to the side and said a little furiously: "Cough! Cough! Jadi...I...my sister has always liked you..."
