Empires Start with Lords

After a few seconds of silence, the crowd in the square dispersed. After a while, only the guards were left beside the Great Elder.

"Pfft—"

I saw the first elder spat out a mouthful of blood, and his already old face looked a little old again.

"Ancestor!" the guard leader shouted anxiously.

"Cough, it's okay." The elder said weakly as he stood up, "Help me back."

"Yes, Old Ancestor!" The leader returned.

With the help of the leader of the guard, the first elder slowly walked towards the Extreme Ice Palace.

Inside the Ice Palace,

A man in his thirties, wearing a blue cloak, sat on a high ice chair directly above.

He held a letter from the capital in his hand, and his left hand trembled slightly, causing a rustling sound from the letter on which the message was written.

The letter reads: Chief of the Ice Clan, the Royal Capital army will arrive at Haidong City in a month to quell the rebellion of the female thieves. The army will rest at your clan's place, and I hope you will prepare supplies in advance.

And the Ice Clan chief in the letter was glaring angrily at this moment, looking angrily at those idiots who were usually brave and fighting.

"say something!"

Hearing his roar, all the people standing in the hall shuddered. Everyone trembled, and no one dared to say a word.

Seeing this, he became even more angry.

He continued to roar with rage: "Are you all dumb? Where's your usual zeal for bravery? Ah?"

After speaking, his eyes scanned the entire hall. What they saw was that everyone buried their heads low and looked at the ground, wishing to bury their heads in the soil. And the hall was still silent.

In the end, his eyes were fixed on a person in the front row on the right, who was wearing a purple robe and looked like he was in his prime, and said, "Ice sacrifice, tell me, what should I do?"

The person who was called the Ice Sacrifice raised his head with difficulty, his eyes just met the wide-open, angry eyes on the knight's chair, and he instantly shrank his neck subconsciously.

After being silent for a while, he said: "Now the blessing of the ice **** has been taken away by the demon girl, and the Truman family is just about to attack Haidong City. Taking this opportunity, we might as well..."

The man on the knight's chair couldn't help but get even more angry when he saw him faltering. He threw the sacrificial tool next to the knight's chair and roared impatiently, "Why not? Hurry up and say it!"

Hearing the words, Bingji instantly knelt down, with his forehead pressed against the ground, and said, "It's better to agree to the request of the Truman family first, and get my family's sacred artifact back first."

The words of the ice sacrifice were like a stone thrown into the water, causing ripples, and a whispering voice suddenly erupted in the hall.

Although everyone, including the man on the knight's chair, knows that the so-called garrison is actually to let their ethnic group fully integrate into the empire and lose the power of independence and self-government, which is no different from surrender.

But at this time, no one in the entire hall denounced the Truman family. Instead, they regarded the Truman family as the savior of the world.

Looking at the faces of these people, the man has an indescribable feeling in his heart.

At the same time, a person on the left stood up and echoed: "Team leader, I think the Ice Festival is right. If we promise the Truman family now, the Truman family will never kill our family. As long as we survive, there will always be opportunity."

Another person echoed: "Yes, patriarch, I also think that the method of offering ice sacrifices is fine."

The man looked at the crowd and pondered for a long time. In the end, he let out a long sigh and looked at the first person on the left, who was wearing a purple robe and said, "Hanji, what do you think?"

When Han Ji, who never said a word, heard the words, he put his hands together, arched them high, and lowered his head and said, "My minister, I agree."

Seeing that the people of the Manchu Dynasty were in harmony, it was rare to reach an agreement. The man closed his eyes in pain.

He thought in his heart that the Ji Bing Clan has gone through thousands of years, but how did it end up in his hands, so unwilling!

After being quiet for a while, the man slowly opened his eyes, as if he was about to announce a painful decision.

"Patriarch—"

At this moment, a soldier ran in quickly while shouting, and then said loudly: "Patriarch, there is a letter from the Land of Hope."

……

……

At this time, the self-proclaimed Empress had returned to Haidong City.

Yes, this empress is the lord of Haidong City,

Ever since she got the secret report, the Truman family has already begun to mobilize troops to go to Haiwongcheng. The empress resolutely declared herself emperor, although Haidong City only had a small city-state.

It can be seen that there is a reason why this rare woman can sit where she is today. This decisiveness alone makes most people shy away.

At this moment, she is sitting in her palace carefully looking at the scepter blessed by the Ice God.

She remembered that it seemed to have its own consciousness when the scepter appeared at the time, but now it looks no different from an ordinary scepter.

Looking at the things in his hand, he said in a puzzled way: "Could it be that I have been tricked? This so-called ice **** scepter is just garbage?"

The scepter listened to the woman's self-talk, and cursed in her heart: You are trash~www.readwn.com~ Damn stinky woman, don't let me take a chance, or the scepter will definitely beat the underdog.

However, it only dares to say it in its heart.

Because it also knows that this woman's strength is unfathomable, and if it is discovered, it will suffer.

At this time, the woman was obviously not very reconciled.

I saw that she raised the scepter and waved it in the air, and then said, "Frozen!"

Scepter: "..."

She changed her posture again and said, "Freeze!"

Scepter "...!"

So,

In her bedroom, this scene appeared.

A mighty empress, holding a scepter and constantly changing positions. Then chanted different mantras.

But the scepter didn't react at all, just like an ordinary scepter.

I don't know how long it took, maybe the woman was a little tired. She finally stopped the movement of her hands, sitting on the steps with one hand on her head, not knowing what she was thinking.

The scepter was lying quietly beside her, as if she had fainted and fainted.

at this time,

There was a call from outside.

"Report to the Empress, the messenger to the Land of Hope has returned."

The guard walked in and spoke to the Empress.

This announcement finally awakened the Empress from her trance.

She looked up at the guard and asked, "How about the Land of Hope?"

"Hui Empress, the land of hope is willing to make good friends with us, and will provide us with some material assistance." The guard replied.

She was stunned when she heard the news. She didn't expect that at this critical juncture, someone would actually want to stand up and help her in an open and honest way.
