Chapter 488 "Proposal"
One has to say, Prince Son is a very hardworking ruler.
At the very least, he didn't slack off on government affairs after taking control of the empire. And he would often work late into the night … … Especially when he encounters some particularly difficult problems.
During these times, the Prince Regent would lock himself up in a study room in the palace. This study room is where the previous emperors of the empire would think about important national policies.
And when the Prince Regent is working here late at night, no one outside would dare to disturb him.
But … … Of course, there are always exceptions to everything.
•
It's already a cold night outside, but the huge study room is as warm as spring. This specially built study room is divided into an inner room and an outer room. The outer room is a spacious reception room with a warm fireplace and a burning flame. At the same time, the walls of this house were double-layered. The space between the two layers of walls was hollow, and the burning fireplace outside would flow into the hollow interlayer of the walls of this big house according to a specially designed channel.
After this constant cycle, the room is filled with warmth. Even if it's a harsh winter outside, it's still as warm as spring inside.
Prince Son is simply draped in a robe as he leans against the wall to take a nap. In front of him is a financial report from the south that has been sitting there for a full hour. But in fact, he hasn't even read a single word.
This young monarch is thinking about the same problem as Du Wei: How to solve the problem of the throne?
Just then, a soft knock came from the outside.
Prince Son frowned as a trace of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes: "Who is it?"
"Your Highness, it's me."
Prince Son's complexion slightly softened. He can tell that the voice belongs to the court magician he trusts. Otherwise, no one else would dare to knock on his door at this time.
"The Duke of the Tulip Family has an important matter and wants to see you now."
Prince Son's eyes lit up as he jumped up from his chair: "Let him in! Quick! "
When Du Wei came in, he immediately noticed Prince Son's red eyes. Poor guy, I'm afraid he hasn't been sleeping well these past few nights. It seems being the ruler of an empire doesn't necessarily bring happiness.
Prince Son pointed to the only soft chair in the room: "Sit, Du Wei …. Tell me, is there something wrong with 'him'?"
"No, no, no!" Du Wei shook his head, looking very relaxed. Then the Duke of the Tulip Family pulled out a thin booklet and gently placed it on Prince Son's desk.
"What is this?"
"An official document, Your Highness." Du Wei smiled. "I just wrote it overnight."
Prince Son frowned, feeling somewhat unhappy in his heart: You're right here in my palace. If there's anything you want to say, just say it face to face! Look at the situation now, and you still have the energy to waste time writing documents?!
Seeing Prince Son's frown, Du Wei smiled: "You don't want to take a look? I wrote this out with great care! "
The Prince Regent finally flipped to the first page and saw a crooked headline. I have to say, Du Wei's handwriting is really clumsy!
"Proposal to rebuild the Continental Knight's Association"
Huh?!
Prince Son was stunned.
Rebuild the Continental Knight's Association?
What's the point of bringing up such irrelevant things at this time??
Continental Knight's Association? Who has the heart to care about that right now?
Prince Son suppressed the urge to fly into a rage and looked at Du Wei, waiting for an explanation. He's not an idiot, and he knows Du Wei is even more so. At this time, there must be a purpose for him to bring up such seemingly irrelevant things.
Shifting the target? Diverting the public's attention?
That doesn't seem to be the case … …
"Tell me about your intentions." Prince Son frowned and put the proposal aside: "Continental Knight's Association, does it have anything to do with the problem we're facing now?"
Du Wei's smile was very strange: "If we want to solve our current problem, I'm afraid this is the best opportunity."
That night, the two talked through the night until dawn. The light in the study room was not extinguished at all … …
•
The news of the Duke of the Tulip Family's urgent return to the capital has already spread. Early in the morning, several groups of messengers flew out of the palace and issued a summons to all the nobles in the capital.
At noon, almost all of the nobles who control more than 90% of the core power in the capital were summoned to the palace to participate in this emergency meeting.
Before the start of the meeting, everyone warmly greeted the Duke of the Tulip Family. As for those who have the deepest friendship with Du Wei, they also warmly exchanged greetings for a while.
However, everyone intentionally or unintentionally tried to get Du Wei to talk. After all, the Duke of the Tulip Family was suddenly summoned back to the capital. Could it be that something big happened?
Prime Minister Robescher was the last to arrive. Along with him was his distant grandson-in-law, one of the three new kings of the Empire: Deputy Minister of Military Affairs, Lord Camisiro.
This young Deputy Minister of Military Affairs is also Du Wei's old friend. Du Wei first congratulated him on his new marriage, then apologized for not being able to attend the wedding. Finally, he also offered a big reward: a box of precious Nanyang pearls.
Camisiro smiled very happily, but he also quietly pulled Du Wei to the side.
Here, Count Biliaibuer, Delan Mountain Beast, and others are also present. Obviously, they are a small clique.
"Tell me, brother." Camisiro lowered his voice and laughed: "We are all old friends here! Why did you come back? And I heard you have been living in the palace for the past two days! Did something big happen? You should tell your old friends about it first. "
Du Wei smiled at the group and whispered: "There is indeed something. I came back to the Imperial Capital this time to submit a proposal to His Highness. Today's meeting was held for this matter. When His Highness asks for everyone's opinion, I ask for everyone's support! This proposal must be passed! "
Listening to Du Wei's words, several people had the same thought in their mind: Since you are the one who proposed this matter, and you have been living in the palace for two days, you must have already made a decision with the Regent! Today's meeting is most likely just a formality! No matter what you say later, we just have to support and agree with it! It is absolutely impossible to oppose it! Otherwise, it would be stupid.
Count Biliaibuer thought for a while and said with a smile: "Du Wei, since you proposed this matter, it is most likely something new and good. This time, I am afraid everyone is going to make a fortune with you! Previously, regarding the Imperial Air Force's hot air balloon production, we all followed you and got a lot of benefits, this time … "
Du Wei smiled: "I will be honest! This time, I am afraid that not only will we not get any benefits, we will also have to pay a bit of blood! However, this matter must be supported by all of you. After this matter is done, I, Du Wei, will definitely repay you in the future! "
Because Kami Siro and Du Wei were tied as the Imperial Newcomer King, Du Wei seemed to be particularly friendly with him. After giving Du Wei a light punch, he smiled and said: "No problem! Du Wei, as long as you don't want us to go bankrupt, no matter how big the matter is, we will support you! "
Du Wei laughed: "I won't go bankrupt. Well, everyone, after the meeting is over in a few days, let's go to my auction house and have a look. Recently, I got a new batch of fun toys from Nanyang … "
While talking and laughing, the etiquette officer in the back of the palace called out, and then the hall quickly quieted down.
The Regent, who was dressed in luxurious clothes and had a long fur cloak draped over his shoulders, walked up to the highest throne with his head held high and his chest puffed out.
"Everyone." After sitting down, Prince Son's voice was a bit hoarse. Du Wei knew this was caused by the lack of rest after staying up all night, but his voice was still very clear: "Today, I urgently called everyone here to discuss a big matter … … Now that the Knight's spirit is in decline, the martial spirit of the Roland Empire is gradually declining … … You must know that the martial spirit is the foundation of my Roland Empire! Therefore, I intend to rebuild the Continental Knight's Association! "
With that, Prince Son clapped his hands.
As he clapped, a side door of the hall slowly opened. A middle-aged man who looked to be in his fifties walked into the hall with his head held high and his chest puffed out.
This man was tall and straight, but on his thin face, he was very handsome. Although he was a bit older, his demeanor was still very good.
He was wearing a full set of standard black Knight's heavy armor. It's a bit strange to wear this kind of equipment to attend a court meeting. Moreover, the cross-shaped sword under his crotch was also the most standard and most traditional Knight's equipment.
When this person walked in, he was holding a knight's helmet in his arms. On the helmet, there was a bright red feather.
This man came to the front of the Regent and kneeled down on one knee. There was a trace of excitement in his voice: "Honorable Lord of the Continent, His Royal Highness the Regent of the Roland Empire. I, the current president of the Continental Knight's Association, the ninth level knight of the continent, the hereditary title of 'Guardian Warrior', the hereditary head of the 'Sword of Roland Knight Corps', Alex Del Valori Delon, greets the Regent for the glory of the King!! "
This man is the current head of the Continental Knight's Association!
Regarding this Delon Knight, all the dignitaries present actually recognized this guy. It's just that when they saw this guy, they all showed a look of disdain.
It's clear that although the "Continental Knight's Association" and the "Magician's Guild" are the two major organizations of the continent in name.
However, this president of the Knight's Association doesn't seem to have a high status … …
