Rise of the Empire Total War

　　 The next day, Richard left the city of Ravana with the early generals and headed east for the city of Luwen.

　　 Before setting off, Richard asked Lawrence and Burris to convey his thoughts: Since he is not yet an adult, he has no idea about marriage at the moment. It was a tactful rejection.

After 　　, he embarked on a new journey.

　　 Before he could go far, Richard met an acquaintance. It is not always true to say that he is an acquaintance. It is just a fate at the banquet. He is Jill Joyce, the heroic knight who was canonized as the new baron before Richard.

When Richard saw him, the new baron was riding a horse on Broad Stone Avenue with one of his knight attendants. Although he had become a nobleman, he was still like a poor knight-a horse. A horse, a shield, a long sword, a lance, and a cloth bag containing belongings or other items are all his property.

　　 looks very poor on the outside, but his cloth bag is actually full of gold and silver rewarded by King Harous, which is enough for him to spend several years.

　　 If I remember correctly, the fief of the new Baron Gil is in Solenburg, south of Luwen, and Richard's heart came up with the idea of ​​walking with him, and immediately put it into action.

　　 "Of course there is no problem, Your Royal Highness Richard."

　　 After learning Richard's intentions, Jill said respectfully. He fought side by side with the Nordic Tomahawk cavalry in the war. He was deeply impressed by the ferocious exotic knights, and he naturally had respect for their lord without realizing it.

　　 Even if he hadn't witnessed the performance of the Nordic Tomahawk Cavalry, he would be very respectful to Richard.

　　 With the addition of Baron Jill, Richard’s journey has increased a bit more fun. He drove a horse to keep pace with the former, talking and laughing.

　　At the same time, Lawrence and Burris, who learned that Richard had responded, got together again. When they could not use their marriage to form an alliance with Richard, a conspiracy against him gradually emerged from Lawrence's mind.

Just before it came up, Burris, who was still wise, stopped in time and said: "I still feel that you should not take hostile behavior against Richard as a last resort. If he sees it through, he will set up a big enemy for himself. "

　　 "Then you said what should we do," Lawrence asked.

"Since Richard does not accept the marriage, we will send people to him directly, so he has no choice but to refuse." Burris spreads out with both hands. Report to us in advance."

　　 "This method is good." Lawrence nodded in agreement, but immediately raised a new question: "Compared with Sophia, Stephanie, which one do you think is more suitable?"

　　 "Of course I chose Sophia." Burris couldn't laugh or cry. "My dear brother, Richard has great potential. Whoever marries him can get a huge help."

　　 "To be honest, I still think that Stephanie should be married to him. After that, no matter what the future development is, he will fight for Stephanie to maintain your throne."

　　 "Then I will get Stephanie ready immediately and go to Louwen City to find Richard."

After 　　 Lawrence finished, he hugged his brother a little moved, "Burris, I am very touched by your support."

　　 "This is the sacred oath I made since I was a child, my dear brother, I will always support you."

"The vow made since childhood..." Hearing Burris mentioning it, Lawrence seemed to remember the past, slowly letting go of his brother, and said: "You can still remember the vow made when you were a child, but Bandak I have completely forgotten it, and are strangers to us."

"Ugh……"

　　 In the sighs of the two, they slowly recalled the past decades, when they were just ignorant children who were ignorant of the outside world, and looked at power as if they were looking at the waste leaves on the side of the road.

At that time, they may have gradually understood their respective positions in the words and deeds of the nearby attendants, but they still did not care. Instead, they each made a ridiculous oath-Lawrence vowed to protect his brother and subjects forever, Burris and Ben. Darke vowed to always be loyal and always support Lawrence.

　　 The vows made as a child were extremely fragile. After only a few years, as the three of them grew older, they finally broke. Bandak showed his ambition to fight for the crown prince's position, and Lawrence was forced to fight back to protect his position.

　　 Only Burris stood by his vow silently and supported his brother as always.

Facing Lawrence’s request, his daughter Stephanie agreed without much consideration. This beautiful and generous princess only took a team of royal cavalry and a few maids, and followed Richard to the strange Luwen city~ www.readwn.com~ What she didn't know was that a few minutes after leaving the city gate, a figure reported her itinerary to Princess Sophia.

Sophia’s hatred for Stephanie began when she was young, and the latter has always been compared to her since she was young. Don’t think that the royal family will not have children from other families. There are tens of thousands of parents in the world, but The essence is still the same.

It was precisely because of countless comparisons that Sophia became disgusted and compared to her sister. She started to compare everything with Stephanie, whether it was the mastery of royal etiquette or the religious scripture "The Holy Scroll". I understand, all of them are compared by her, but she is basically at a disadvantage.

At the same time, the attitude of the people around her and Stephanie also gave her a lot of stimulation. After all, Stephanie is the eldest daughter of His Royal Highness. Can be counted as collateral.

　　 Various reasons have made Sophia's disgust towards Stephanie more and more profound. Although she will not show it on the surface, she is a close sister in the eyes of outsiders, but she still keeps small movements in private.

This time she finally found a chance to overwhelm Stephanie-that is to marry Richard, as long as she can marry Richard, who is currently the most popular in the kingdom, and Stephanie, who is regarded as a candidate together with her Will be overshadowed.

　　 In addition, Richard's status as the orthodox heir to the Kingdom of Winster made her even more heart-warming. According to her idea, Richard's ability may be able to restore the rule of the Stuart dynasty in her lifetime, and she will become the most dazzling woman in the entire kingdom.

　　 "I want to go too, I want to go to Richard, and I can't let the woman Stephanie get ahead!"

　　 Sophia clenched her fist and said firmly.
