After Transmigrating to Become the Daughter of a Duke, I Just Want to Pursue a Career

As soon as these words came out of his mouth, Duke Aldan saw a bright light suddenly shine in the eyes of his little daughter, as if the stars in the sky were crushed and melted into the girl's pupils.

Facing the little daughter who suddenly became active, Duke Aldan couldn't help but sighed, and before waiting for her to answer, he said first,

"I came to you this time just to take you to see your sister. Now go and pack up your things. We are going to go home."

At this moment, facing Duke Aldan's words, Diana's face was almost full of joy, but soon, as if something happened, the girl suddenly looked at her father timidly, and asked hesitantly. road,

"But............."

"Father, didn't you say before that you must graduate from college before you can meet your sister?"

"I'm going there early now, will I cause trouble for my sister?"

"Hehe~" Regarding his daughter's question, Duke Aldan pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled softly, and then he didn't say much, but simply explained a few words,

"Today is different from the past. With your sister's current ability, you can no longer cause her trouble."

"Hurry up and pack your things. We'll head home right away, and I'll send you to your mother's place. The Aaron family is planning to split off a branch to go to Burrose to spread its branches. Your mother is the leader of the team. Arrive It's time for your mother to take you there."

On the other side, after getting a definite answer from Duke Aldan, the girl's eyes flashed with joy, and the joy in her expression was like a trickle overflowing, gently wrapping around her brows, In an instant, the girl who had always been a model little lady in front of Duke Aldan suddenly became lively.

"Understood, father, I'm going to pack up and salute now."

"Please wait a moment, it will be ready soon!"

As if she was afraid that her father would change her mind, Diana nodded like a chick pecking rice, and at the same time stood up neatly, and rushed to her room, even forgetting to salute.

Behind the girl, looking at the little daughter who couldn't hide his joy, Duke Aldan sighed slightly, a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes, but it disappeared soon.

And the moment Diana's figure disappeared in the living room, as if it had been discussed, the door of the villa was opened again, and then, the figure of the butler Karbas appeared at the gate.

"Master, good news......"

After a while, Karbas approached the Duke, only to see the chief steward of the Duke's mansion bowing slightly, reporting to his lord with a happy face,

"Our people just sent the news that the eldest lady has now taken over the entire Principality of Buzeledo, and at the same time the canyon in the Yabuprofen Mountains has also been controlled by the eldest lady. The war is over!"

"So fast?!"

"Is the news accurate?"

At this moment, upon hearing the steward's report, Duke Aldan rarely showed a hint of surprise on his face, while on the other side, Karbas seemed to sense the doubts in his lord's heart, and quickly added,

"Reporting to the master, it has been confirmed, and the news is correct. The eldest lady has indeed taken down the entire Principality of Buzeledo at this time."

"According to the news from there, after the Battle of Victorville, the troops and supplies promised by various countries were quickly put in place, but the eldest lady did not rush to attack, but continued to let the troops repair on the spot."

"On the other hand, on the Principality of Buzeredo, Grand Duke Zenosi hastily summoned [-] troops under his command, preparing to unite with the remnants of the Empire, declaring that he will fight to the death with Missy."

"Originally, everyone thought that the eldest lady wanted to take down the Principality of Boozeredo, and there were still a few tough battles to be fought. As a result, no one expected that an army under the command of Grand Duke Zenosi suddenly rebelled. When it went to the front line for inspection, Kill him and his successor together."

"Afterwards, the entire Boozeredo Principality fell into total chaos, and the eldest lady sent troops at this time, defeated the remaining resistance forces in one fell swoop, and successfully took down the entire Buzeledo Principality!"

When the voice fell, he seemed to understand that the news he brought contained a huge amount of information. In order to give Duke Aldan time to react, Karbas stopped talking, and the living room suddenly became quiet until after a while, Only then did I hear a faint sound of emotion,

"It's amazing~~"

At this moment, Duke Aldan, who had straightened out his thoughts, didn't know what he thought of, and a warm color flashed across his expression, and then he heard the Duke sigh softly,

"That child was not prosperous when she was young, and she had a rebellious personality when she was young. I was once worried about her future, but I never thought that she is now standing at the pinnacle of the world, and the glory of the Tianqing family shines because of her."

"That's right, sir."

As soon as Duke Aldan's words fell, Karbas, who was also flickering with joy between his brows, immediately followed the words with a smile,

"What a majestic imperial cavalry, sweeping across the countries, unstoppable."

"But now, the most elite knights in the empire have suffered such a miserable defeat at the hands of the young lady. It can almost be regarded as annihilation of the entire army. Even the legendary Duke Girton was defeated and died."

"From now on, looking at the world, who would dare to underestimate the descendants of the Azure Sage."

Hearing the butler's sincere praise, the smile on Duke Aldan's face gradually grew stronger, but after a while, as if he remembered something, he suddenly turned around and asked with a frown,

"Is there any news from our people in the empire? What is the reaction from the empire now?"

Regarding Duke Aldan's sudden inquiry, Karbas was taken aback for a moment, then restrained his smile, and responded with a serious tone,

"Reporting to my lord, there is no useful news coming back. Since the end of the Battle of Victorville, the empire has only issued an emergency summons order to a number of high-ranking nobles, and there has been no other response. The army There are no signs of large-scale dispatch by the public or private sector.”

"On the contrary, the allied countries reacted greatly. After learning about the battle situation, all the allied countries are stepping up to form new legions."

"That's not right..." After listening to the steward's report, Duke Aldan narrowed his eyes slightly like a dozing lion, and murmured to himself,

"After suffering such a big loss, how could the empire not respond at all?"

"Could it be that............"

At this moment, thinking of something, Duke Aldan's eyes suddenly lit up, and then, a stern voice sounded in the living room,

"Karbas, order to go down immediately, change the itinerary, we will not go back to the duke, go directly to the Royal Pier, and prepare to take a boat to Chris."

"Master, what do you mean..." Hearing the Duke's sudden order, Karbas widened his eyes, and then asked tentatively,

"The empire might be unfavorable to the second lady? It shouldn't be possible, right?"

"Hmph!" Facing Karbas' doubts, Duke Aldan snorted coldly, and then responded with sarcasm,

"Nothing is impossible!"

"The imperial people have always been cunning and insidious. The reason why countries hate the empire so much is not entirely because of the cruelty of the imperial army, but also because the imperial people never know what shame is!"

"Especially the imperial family. For hundreds of years, all kinds of ruthless political methods have emerged one after another, and they don't have the slightest awareness of being a high-ranking person."

"Now the situation is very obvious. The new tactics developed by my daughter have made the empire completely passive on the battlefield. Once they determine that they cannot regain their advantage on the battlefield, they will inevitably look outside the battlefield."

"In this way, there is a high probability that Diana will become their target. I even suspect that the hyenas of the empire are already on their way."

"Understood, master, I'll go and arrange it now." After hearing Duke Aldan's explanation, the steward immediately nodded with a serious expression, but just as he was about to turn around and leave, Duke Aldan stopped him suddenly,

"Wait, Karbas."

At this moment, Aldan was silent for a moment looking at the butler who was looking back at him, and then he spoke again in a calm tone,

"It's up to you to take care of this trip. First escort Diana to her mother, and then accompany them to Burrose."

"But, master, what do you do then?!" Facing Duke Aldan's explanation, Karbas subconsciously widened his eyes and wanted to raise objections, but before he could persuade him a few more words, he was forced by Duke Aldan interrupt,

"Okay, no need to say more, let's execute the order, and I will arrange other things myself."

At this moment, looking at Duke Aldan whose attitude was particularly stubborn, Karbas's face flashed with intense struggle, but in the end, under the stern gaze of Duke Aldan, the chief butler of the Duke's mansion still gave up and continued. Persuading, after slightly bowing and saluting, he turned and left the living room.

Following the departure of the butler, only Duke Aldan was left in the living room. Accompanied by a faint sigh, the sunlight passed through the transparent glass and projected into the empty hall, stretching the lonely figure of the Duke into a long, old long......

Section 211 207. Responses from all parties

Three days later, in the imperial capital of Bernode, a meeting was held in the political hall of the imperial palace. The scene of the meeting was quite grand, and the standard of the meeting was very high. The members participating in the meeting covered most of the middle and high-level nobles in the empire who held real power. All the bigwigs from various aristocratic factions of the empire were present. As for the subject matter discussed at this meeting, it was the Battle of Buzeredo Principality that shamed the entire empire not long ago.

The tragic ending of the Battle of the Principality of Buzeledo, for most of the countries that did not directly participate in it, although they were shocked by the outcome of this battle, it can only be regarded as an extra piece of talk, but for the rulers of the upper echelons of the empire As far as they are concerned, the final outcome of the Boozeredo Principality is tantamount to a terrifying catastrophe like the top of Mount Tai!

This is not an exaggerated statement. After learning about everything that happened in the Battle of the Principality of Boozeredo, the rulers of the empire really felt a fear of impending doom.

As for why the rulers of the empire reacted so violently, it started with the empire's military system and war thinking.

The current military system and war ideology that the empire is pursuing follows from the era of the old kingdom. At that time, the empire was not as powerful as it is today, but the territory of the empire occupied a considerable part of the fertile plain area.

Because of its special geographical location, the empire is like a piece of fat. It has been watched by the surrounding countries, and it is under tremendous military pressure almost all the time.

For its own safety, the empire at that time invested huge resources in the field of national defense, and with the accumulation of a large amount of resources, various new tools of war and new tactics emerged in an endless stream.

In the end, among the many new tools of war, the "new" arms built on the basis of war horses - the cavalry, withstood the test of war after battle.

Since most of the empire's territory at that time was a plain area, and most of the wars the empire faced at that time were homeland defense wars, relying on the Great Plains, the advantages of cavalry tactics were fully demonstrated.

Relying on the strategic advantages formed by the cavalry, the empire not only successfully defeated many invading enemies, but took advantage of the defeat and weakness of various countries to reversely annex a large amount of land, laying a solid foundation for the birth of today's empire.

It is precisely because of this that the empire that has come all the way from the Old Kingdom has always regarded the development of cavalry as the foundation of maintaining its own security and defending the hegemony of the mainland after tasting the sweetness of cavalry.

In the following hundreds of years, the empire has always pursued the idea of ​​​​large cavalry, and has continuously invested a lot of resources in the field of cavalry.

To this day, the entire empire, from the nobles to the common people, has long regarded the imperial cavalry as the most important part of the national belief. In the hearts of countless imperial people, as long as the iron hooves of the imperial cavalry are still roaring on the earth, the empire will always be on the mainland. the most powerful country.

However, this belief that has been steadfast in the hearts of the imperialists for hundreds of years was crushed to pieces not long ago by the Azure Queen from Burros!

At the very beginning, when they heard the news of the demise of the Girton Knights, most of the imperial people couldn't accept such a cruel reality, and they kept trying to find a suitable reason for the fiasco.

However, as more and clearer news came back from the front line, the imperial people who knew the inside story became more desperate to discover that the destruction of the Girton Knights was not an accidental event, but an inevitable outcome that was already doomed. .

Just like the imperial cavalry in the past, born in response to the call of the times, suppressing the mainland countries with a domineering posture, now, the times already have a new favorite.

Facts have proved that the imperial cavalry, which was extremely powerful in the past, has no advantage at all in front of the new rifle regiment. When the two meet, the imperial cavalry, which consumes more resources, is the one that is slaughtered.

Faced with such a cruel and cold reality, the high-ranking officials of the empire, whose beliefs have been shaken, have to start thinking about a frightening question. …

When the Imperial Knights can no longer continue to defend the glory of the empire, what should the future of the empire do?

In order to solve this problem, all the high-level officials of the empire gathered in the political hall of the imperial palace and started a long discussion, but until now, they have not been able to come up with a suitable solution.

Due to the inability to solve the problem for a long time, anxiety began to spread among the crowd, and the original discussions began to turn into meaningless quarrels, followed by mutual accusations and shirk responsibility. The meeting of fate, in the end, turned into a meaningless emotional vent.

At this moment, the nobles standing in the central area of ​​the political hall are like enraged fighting cocks. They stare at each other with ferocious faces and red eyes, as if they wish to rush forward and tear each other into pieces. , I can't see the slightest demeanor at all.And in the area where the great nobles of the empire are located, the big bosses of various noble factions sitting around the throne, although they are not as dispirited as their subordinates, they all put on a sinister face with each other, obviously Many issues related to core interests have not been discussed.As for the imperial emperor sitting on the throne, he has kept his eyes closed since the beginning of the meeting, and he has not spoken a word from the beginning to the end.

When Crown Prince Reinhardt arrived at the political hall, he saw such a scene. The entire hall was immersed in an atmosphere of anxiety, rage, and fear, which made people feel extremely depressed.

"His Highness Reinhardt is here—!"

As the servant's roll call sounded in the hall, the oppressive atmosphere warmed up slightly. Everyone's eyes subconsciously turned to the source of the sound. As the focus of everyone's attention, Reinhardt ignored the sight that fell on him. He walked towards the throne without looking sideways.

Before and after arriving at the throne, Reinhardt bowed to his father, and the moment he raised his head, the Emperor of the Empire, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly said,

"Lian? Are you back so soon?"

"Girton Duchy, what's the situation now?"

"Report to Your Majesty..." At this moment, facing his father's inquiry, Reinhardt raised his head and glanced at the other party, and then replied in a respectful tone like an ordinary courtier. ,

"Things have been settled. The Girton family already has a new Duke. The successor is Duke Rockman's eldest son, who belongs to the orthodox line of succession."

"The whole process went very smoothly, and there was no trouble. After completing the witness ceremony, I rushed back."

"It's fine if there is no trouble~~" After listening to Reinhardt's answer, the emperor rubbed his temples with a tired face, and then he waved his hands to his son and said,

"You came back just in time. An emergency meeting is being held here. As the crown prince of the empire, come and talk about your own ideas."
