Katalin’s manor is located in a relatively remote place outside Marienburg, about 15 kilometers away from Marienburg. It is not particularly safe, but for Kata Lin said that the threat is actually very small. As a Sacred Domain powerhouse, is she afraid that the wild beasts and marsh monsters wandering in the wild will not succeed? Or those green skins from Jinte Mine?

After the failed attempt to regain Kieslov, Katalin brought her last followers to Marienburg. She declined the Rick, Midden, and Oster collars. The female czar was rather discouraged at the invitation. After successive failures, she gradually began to understand that, with her military talent, perhaps it was an extravagant hope to regain Kislov.

Schultz offered her a high salary, and she became one of the Guardian and guest official wizards of Marienburg. After repeated abolition and careful selection of the Romanov Guards, Three hundred people were left, and all the rest were disbanded. The original huge court was also reduced one after another. In the end, only forty-fifty individuals were left, as well as the Ice Witch Club, which was not as strong as before. These five hundred people Stayed in the large manor donated by Schultz.

This stay is 7 years, from 2516 in the imperial calendar to the winter of 2523 in the imperial calendar.

at first Katalyn also has great expectations for the countries of the old world. She thinks that Kislev has done everything to protect the old world. Now several millions of Mrs. Kisler are displaced. Relying on the bloody battles of the generals, ice witches, Boyer and Kislov fighters, the disaster of Mortkin’s invasion was greatly delayed. Without Mrs. Kisler, the empire would not have time to form a defense line, and the entire north of the empire Under the cloud of chaos, the tragedy of the great Holy War will be staged again.

So, in the face of Mrs. Keisler’s sacrifice, the old world nations as it should be by rights should appreciate, provide support and help, assist Keisler in the restoration of the country, or at least say something Is the hero immortal?

However, although both the empire and Bretania recognized Kislev’s tenacity, there was really no aid, and the empire had no resources. Emperor Karl-Franz and Emmanuel Jueyou gave a few funds, but there was no sound later. Bretania simply made it even better. They established the Northern Legion, supported the Grand Duke of Olengrad, and recruited Kislev’s last field Legion — -Rokosovsky’s winged cavalry Legion.

The female czar seems to have been forgotten.

To make matters worse, in reality, the escaped Mrs. Keesler was not at all welcomed as imagined and had a miserable life.

After entering the empire, these refugees have occupied and replaced a large number of low-end labor markets. Under the influence, not only Mrs. Keesler had a miserable life, but even the living environment of the empire’s natives was affected. Deteriorating, when External Race people were robbing jobs, the contradiction between the two sides escalated instantly, and soon there appeared hostility, hatred and bloody conflict, and the contradiction intensified, until it developed into universal discrimination and hatred.

If these were just rumours for Katalyn, then the living conditions of the dismissed Kislov soldiers and veterans were directly exposed to the female czar.

She saw with her own eyes a former Lien Captain officer, about 30 years old, who came to Marienburg’s talent market to look for a job. The sweet and lovely female front desk asked: “What will you do? What?”

“I can command a company, a phalanx, or if necessary, I can also go to battle myself, as a mercenary, as a guard, or anything else.”

“It’s a pity that we have too many people like this.” The female receptionist opened a scroll, and the long name on it followed the parchment directly to the ground and rolled out more than one meter long: “You don’t have it yourself. Equipment, we don’t think about it. Even if you have a full set of equipment, there are 6,324 people in line before you. Do you have a horse? If you are a Knight with a horse, we can arrange work for you now.”

“I don’t have a horse.” The veteran said dullly: “I don’t have equipment either.”

“Then, besides military and martial arts, do you have any other skills?”

“I can go to the dock to be a worker, to work in a workshop, to deliver goods on the street, and to…”

“Then the daily salary is only 2 Copper Coins, except for the Mannán Holy Day Can you do it all year round except Sundays and Sundays?”

“…Yes.”

Two Copper Coins! Even the cheapest and most trash restaurant eating brown bread, hard beans, and rotten cabbage will cost two Copper Coins for two meals a day!

Katalin couldn’t help intervening, and the veteran told her the cold truth.

“The money is gone, we need to live, I have sold my jewelry, my cart, my armor, my fur coat, my saber, my bearskin hat, My medal, I sold everything, my Your Majesty, and now my child is hungry on the damp floor of the basement, but I have nothing to sell.”

At that moment , Catalyn finally realized that the strongest and most tenacious country in the old world had been turned into ruins, and this was only the beginning of all sufferings, and the cause of all these tragedies, except for the damn chaos, she was the biggest responsibility people.

“The czar Your Majesty? My czar Your Majesty, are you listening?” Beria’s voice came from far to near.

Looking at the shining Orson Medal on Beria’s chest, Katalyn shook her head vigorously, barely came back to his senses.

This is not Bokaha Palace, nor her ice palace. Now a reception room of less than 50 square meters is where she usually meets guests, the treasure accumulated by the Romanov Imperial Family for thousands of years. There is still some wealth and wealth, but it is far away from the splendorous and majestic of Bocaha Palace. Catalyn sneered. She gave Beria’s “recovery plan” indifferent expression: “Okay, you say I know it.”

Beria was a little disappointed. The Urgols looked up cautiously and found that Katharine was not at all very angry, slightly sighed in relief in his heart, as Romanov Descendants of Imperial Family bloodline descendant and Miska’s ice bloodline. Although Katalyn’s appearance is not comparable to Queen Suria, she is still a beautiful woman. The female czar sitting on her throne is wearing a winter high-necked striped sweater Wearing a crown of ice on her head, a bokaha cloak, a long azure skirt, and a pair of brown leather boots, she looks like an lonely and arrogant ice beauty.

Even though she is not a czar now, she is still a high-level ice attribute wizard of Sacred Domain! Beria warned herself.

“Beria.” Catalyn leaned back in the chair, and the female czar motioned to everyone to go out. She sighed: “Beria?”

“The foreign minister is here. “Beria quickly straightened her posture.

“Beria, you said, I have inherited the throne of father for so many years, so many mistakes, how can no one dare to persuade?” Catalyn pursed her mouth, and the czar grows a She sighed and closed her eyes, and she laughed bitterly to herself: “The team that my father left for me was taken apart by me. Felix and Lev, why don’t they be more resolute?”

“To rule this icy and snowy country in Kislov, it is already harder. The all-powerful prince, the invasion of chaos is beyond human resistance. Your Majesty need not be too self-blame.” Bailey Ya put his hands on his knees, and the Urgols considered their tone: “As for the ministers and generals, they have also done their duties. Dimitri, Fedosov, Konev are all I have already fought and died, Constantine has done his best, and the soldiers who died in the battle have done their duties. Please Don’t blame yourself for Your Majesty.”

Beria is really doing it. I don’t understand Katalin suddenly asked what this is doing.

This question is very difficult to answer, Beria immediately decided to follow Talleyrand’s instructions.

“Don’t blame me, do you still blame the Empire and the Kingdom of Knight?” Katalyn smiled bitterly and shook his head: “It’s me, it’s me. After I succeeded, the ministers and generals are always there. Teach me how to do things, but I hate others commanding me the most. I am the bloodline of Queen Miska. I am born with all ice magic and the leader of the ice witches, so I don’t like being instructed. I replace them. , And then replaced, until I changed to obedient, I did not do the right thing, these years, how many people have I wronged, how many loyal ministers and good generals I have killed? Beria, you are also a party, so many wrongs, so many tyranny , How did you come here?”

“Bokaha came from Kurgan, and we have bathed in the grace of Romanov Imperial Family for generations. Treating Your Majesty, we can only respect and sincerely. , Don’t think about it.” Beria paused for a while, showing a slightly aggrieved expression: “If Your Majesty really can’t tolerate us, we have no intention of confronting Your Majesty. It’s nothing more than… leaving your hometown and going to another place to ask for a living. that’s all.”

“Ai, Lav Lianji, I have heard too much of these words after taking the throne.” Katalyn shook her head slightly, and the Tsar’s face showed a very tired expression: “Say It sounds very good, it’s useless. I would be very happy to hear you say this before, because I think I didn’t do anything wrong, but now it doesn’t work, it doesn’t work at all, Beria, do you think this can fool the problem?”

Beria complexion slightly changed, but the Ugol people are not too self-control to lose. He thought that after so many experiences, the female czar finally changed.

Indeed, it’s time for some dry goods.

“Your Majesty said that, the foreign minister has to tell the truth that is not very nice.”

“Say~say, it doesn’t matter how bad it is, I forgive you Not guilty.” Katalyn nodded repeatedly.

“Kislov was founded around 1500 in the imperial calendar. It has a thousand years of history. Under the leadership of Queen Miska, we have settled in a place that is actually not suitable for human habitation. Defeated the Ugol people and incorporated them in, and since then formed the Kislev nation and country.” Beria slowly said: “The whole kingdom is like a pair of brothers, three cities, count Bai Boye, between the darkness and the wolves, each step of Kislov is full of hardships and sufferings, but we have proved that we are the most tenacious nation in the old world, and we are a family, and we are here to carry forward. “

“en.” Katalyn nodded.

“The millions of creatures living in the ice and snow are like children in the family, and the czar is like the grandfather and grandmother of the family. As for us generals, boys and ministers, they are like The daughter-in-law in the family can do everything as much as possible. They have to listen to the grandfather and grandmother and take care of their children. This is a hard work. If there is no way, they can only consider the requirements of the grandfather and grandmother and sacrifice temporarily. Children.” Beria said slowly: “The people who stayed behind, generally think so, and do so.”

“Yes, yeah, because the children are wronged, it’s okay to say If the grandfather and grandmother are not satisfied, they can change their daughter-in-law. The daughter-in-law does not want to be replaced, so she can only do her best to meet the requirements of the grandmother.” Katalyn pursed her mouth, and the czar’s eyes were moist. She remembered what she had done after she ascended the throne. Everything, those ministers who tried hard to admonish themselves, those marshals and generals who died in battle, those Krim guards and ice witches who sacrificed to cover their escape, vivid faces flashed before her eyes, but they were frozen. .

“Yes, it’s me, it’s all me. I didn’t take care of my country. I didn’t become this grandmother.” Tears had blurred Katalyn’s vision, she was wrapped in white lace gloves Her slender fingers squeezed the handle of the seat, and then opened it lightly. The tone that had always been stern and full of commands finally softened. She raised her hand, and a thick nasal sound followed the trembling voice: “But… but now I understand What’s the use? The country is gone. Those great names and soldiers are either dead or scattered. I’m really not suitable to be a czar. I am an excellent ice witch, but I am just an ice witch. “

The tears flowed down her ice face, and Katalyn finally cried. The czar bit her teeth hard, and she inhaled hard: “Beria, I know I made a lot of mistakes, many, But…but I really don’t understand sometimes. Can you tell me what I did wrong?”

“Since Your Majesty asked, let me talk a little bit.” Leah sighed again.

Katalin finally woke up, but it was a little late.

“Your Majesty, as everyone knows, Kislov is actually not a very suitable territory for human life. It is supreme cold, too remote, and always facing threats from the north.” Beria slowly said: “Especially in the Great Holy War, Kislov was completely defeated once. Although the kingdom was rebuilt after the victory of the Great Holy War, it was immediately followed by the bloody Queen Catalina. After decades of terrifying rule, let me classify it a little bit. After Katarina’s bloody rule is over, what are the dilemmas that Kislev will face.”

Beria will himself According to his views and explanations, he subdivided the dilemma into seven.

One, the threat of chaos, two, the army is rotten, three, financial exhaustion, four, the aristocracy infighting, five, the ice witch engulfing national interests, six, Kislov’s land is barren and the environment is harsh, Seven, the low-level civilians are overwhelmed.

“First of all, the most important thing is the threat of chaos. As the only way for chaos to go south, as long as chaos can’t be stopped, then everything will rest.” Beria first said: “Only hold the territory. , We have the possibility of existence.”

“Since we want to defend our territory, we must have a strong army. Kislov does not lack brave soldiers and excellent generals, but the army Without weapons and armor, no city wall camps, no logistical weapons, no wages, and no food, what about battle strength?”

“So if you want to have a strong enough army, you must have money. “

“But the kingdom’s finances have dried up. This is the problem of three, four or five. First of all, the nobles are corrupt. In addition, Kislev’s basic national policy is Boye autonomy. We cannot collect from the nobles. When it comes to taxes, there is also the Ice Witch Club, Your Majesty. You must know very well how far the Ice Witches have moved the country’s finances and resources.” Beria said solemnly.

“…Yes.” Katalyn nodded painfully.

“But maintaining the army, the Boyer aristocracy, and the Ice Witches are the foundation of the country. This is untouchable, but the finances have dried up, so I can only increase taxes on the civilians.” Leah shook his head: “Although most of the increased taxes cannot enter the treasury, this is the only way. Then it is the sixth and seventh problem. The poor land is inherently low productivity, too much tax increases, and the tax burden is too heavy. It can’t be supported at all. If this goes on, there is only a vicious circle that’s all, Your Majesty.”

Katalin understands that this is a hardly solved problem.

Do something against the Ice Witch Sisters? No czar would be too stupid to do this! Furthermore, if there is no Ice Witch, who will deal with the Chaos Wizard?

So to do with the Boyer system? Doesn’t that mean directly challenging the Knight system in Bretania?

From the State Duma to the country huts, up and down, in all aspects, the Boyers control money and funds, rising channels, land resources, food crops, and even church public opinion! The Bloody Queen Katerina was successfully overthrown by these people!

Your Majesty, do you want to rebel again?

“So, Your Majesty, sometimes, things really can’t be blamed on you.” Beria shook his head: “Although your ability is not as good as the Red Tsar Boris, but in the history of Kislov Shang is by no means an incompetent monarch. It’s just bad luck. You happened to encounter the invasion of Motkin.”

Yes, I just didn’t have good luck, plus the ability is not good enough, Kata Lin finally stopped her tears, and she agreed with Beria from the bottom of her heart.

“But Your Majesty, I know that you have made a lot of mistakes and are not suitable for ruling Kislov, except for you, except for the Romanov Imperial Family bloodline and Miska Queen bloodline. , Who can rule Kislov? You are impossible, others are even more impossible!” Beria suddenly said sharply: “If you give up, then everything is really over!”

“But, what should I do?” Katalin has been said to have no master.

“The Bokaha family has made great contributions to Kislov over the centuries. Mrs. Kisler will be remembered. Don’t ruin this greatness just because of your weakness. Family!” Beria immediately struck the iron while it was hot, and he said seriously: “You just need to do what I said, haven’t you seen the power and power of the Sun King? This is the only chance, Your Majesty!”

“But… But, my noble Bokaha Imperial Family bloodline, as the last descendant and heir of Romanov…” Katalyn was still entangled.

“Your Majesty! If you are unwilling to save Kislov and Roman Imperial Family, then who else will come?” Beria was angry: “Can those insects be able to govern the country well? Is it?????!!!”

There was silence in the house.

Finally, Katalin’s hesitant voice sounded.

“Then just do what you said…try it.”
