Public trial?You deserve it too!

Claude was shocked, why are you stopping me?This doesn't mean it's time for the emperor to test himself. If I pass this, I can officially become the eagle dog under the emperor's command. You don't want to make trouble at this time, okay?

Who did you learn from the mysterious operation that slowed me down at this critical moment?Is your dad?

"No matter what it is, as long as His Majesty needs me to do it, I will stick to it to the end."

Claude directly blocked other possibilities, and he didn't even talk about the knight's morality - after all, loyalty is not absolute, but it is absolutely disloyal, and he is clear about this.

In short, there are no two suns in the sky, and there is only one sun in his heart, His Majesty the Emperor.

Christina was silent, she looked seriously into Claude's eyes, and Claude also looked at him firmly.

"What if you need to kill a lot of people?"

"I am a knight and a soldier of the empire. In the future, countless enemies of the empire will surely fall in my hands."

"What if, many people may be unarmed, just crying and begging for mercy?"

Claude paused, his eyes still firm.

"If His Majesty orders me to kill them, I will definitely kill them, because they are the enemies of the Empire, and I am His Majesty's sharp blade - if they are innocent, I will go and ask His Majesty for pardon, and raise their children. If I die at their hands, I will have no complaints."

Her Royal Highness looked at Claude who did not dodge his eyes at all, and finally understood why the emperor was so sure that the Ninth Knights could replace the First Knights as the knife for this big cleansing.

The man in front of me who I adore is undoubtedly the loyal minister of the empire and the future pillar!

"I see, I will go back and tell His Majesty."

Christina nodded. Of course, she knew the meaning of Claude's execution of this matter. She said it before, but she was just worried that he might not be able to accept the killing task.

——Of course, Christina doesn't know what kind of painting style Claude's previous battle scenes were like, and His Majesty the Emperor... naturally knows.

"Your Highness, may I ask a question?"

At this time, Claude raised his own doubts.

"Just ask."

"I'm called back to Beijing this time to cleanse the nobles?"

The girl looked at Claude in shock.

"Where... did you hear that?"

"Guess."

Claude said softly.

"You said, Your Majesty thinks that I will not refuse this task, obviously it is in line with my wishes, and I can't have any doubts about killing the enemy - but you think that I might not do it, obviously It is because the ones to be killed are not real enemies, but innocent people may be killed, which is why you want to refuse for me."

"Now, I, all my troops are near the imperial capital. Obviously, it is impossible for His Majesty to order me to drive the knights into the imperial capital and kill those hard-working civilians. In addition, in the imperial capital, the knights are needed. The only forces with a level of power that won't make me merciful are those nobles."

【Have you overdone it?Guessing the intentions of the emperor and the future emperor in this way, won't you be afraid of being photographed? 】

'I'm afraid of shit, only those in positions of authority who have ghosts in their hearts will worry that their subordinates guess their own minds too accurately. This emperor—no, the emperors of the entire empire are obviously following the bright and righteous way, and they will only be happy for their subordinates More people understand what they mean and do things well, instead of suspecting that the other party knows themselves too well, so they have to chop it up with a knife. '

Cloud scoffed at the theory of the system.

"I want to change their stereotypes of me as soon as possible. Christina may have changed her opinion of me because of her ability, but for the emperor, I still need an opportunity to tell him that my brain is as powerful as my strength." ——Christina is the perfect bridge of communication. '

At this time, Her Highness the Princess had just finished digesting her shock, and she looked at Claude with somewhat complicated eyes.

Surprised, and somewhat proud.

This is who I like!

"Yes, Claude, you guessed it right, His Majesty is going to make a complete settlement with the great nobles during this year's annual meeting of nobles!"

Christina confirmed his guess.

Sure enough, they are great nobles, but it is a bit strange. If it is really necessary to cleanse the great nobles, what is the situation with Augustus... now?

Claude feels a bit tricky, he hasn't forgotten that the time bomb he sent over, Mr. Gutenberg Barr, is still so bored that he didn't even get a fart out, but this matter has been dragging on for almost a year , why hasn't the mine exploded yet?

You won't play around, will you?

But about the eldest prince, he couldn't ask Christina, after all, he had just established himself as a loyal soldier, and then you turned around and asked what's going on with Augustus now...

Why, want to intervene in party struggles, want soldiers to interfere in politics?

And most importantly, Claude has gradually realized that on Christina's side, a point of contradiction has formed that may erupt at any time.

You know, the other party is no longer the princess who would throw all the information to herself, and then drink afternoon tea while peeking at her princess. She is now a royal child who has entered the family, and it is obvious that the emperor is holding her hand Educate her, so many methods that could be used before, including the skills of stereotypes, can no longer be used.

And not only can't it be used, but also can't make the other party aware of the problem, otherwise it will not only reveal your intentions, but if you make Christina suspicious, and try to replay the conversation between the two before...

Tsk, let those memories of Christina be full of youthful rosy, after all, this kind of meeting has a girly filter, at least it will not be reproduced as a deliberate and politically enthusiastic big careerist Claude come out……

Although he is that kind of person.

After a lot of thought, Claude showed an expression of suppressing his excitement, and clenched his hands into fists.

"Finally...is this day finally coming?"

Christina was a little curious about his reaction.

"Claude, what are you talking about?"

"This is a question I once asked His Majesty the Emperor."

Claude took a few deep breaths, and seemed to suppress his surging heart, before he could barely speak coherently.

"How should the conflict between the common people and the nobles be resolved? This is the question I asked His Majesty after experiencing the rebellion in the province of Provence. At that time, His Majesty did not answer me. Now, His Majesty is obviously Officially answered my question!"

"If the nobles are resolved, then naturally there will be no conflict between the nobles and the commoners! Your Majesty is even willing to let me organize their 'funerals' in person. This kind of reward is what I dream of!"

Claude looked at Christina eagerly.

"Your Highness, please don't worry about me. I won't make it difficult for me to get through my inner barrier—so I would also like to ask you to tell Your Majesty that Claude Kaos is willing to be the sharpest in the hands of His Majesty the Emperor." Stab the sword into the hearts of the nobles!"

joke.The emperor chose to use the army instead of the Imperial Intelligence Bureau as the knife for the purge, which is already very illustrative——

This is simply the election ceremony of the Ministry of the Interior!

"I understand."

Christina looked at Claude's unchanging firmness from beginning to end, and nodded slightly.

This time, she didn't see any falsehood in Claude's eyes. He really wanted to do this for His Majesty with all his heart--Claude, as His Majesty the Emperor said, is a true Imperial Knights!

She was of course very proud of it.

"Then, I will tell His Majesty that you are willing to be the sharp blade of execution and cut off the necks of those great nobles."

Christina also formally agreed to Claude's request.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Claude smiled, apparently getting what he wanted.

"Then this matter has been decided in this way-the next thing is another matter, which is also decided by Your Majesty." Her Royal Highness relaxed again, after all, the business has been discussed. "In order to paralyze those nobles, and cover some people In the name of "accepting His Majesty's compulsory recall order", you have to show your face in the imperial capital and join Leticia in some noble receptions and salons."

Claude nodded in understanding. This is a very reasonable method. A knight leader who was recalled urgently cannot bring his own troops back with him, which can lower the vigilance of some people with malicious intentions.

"I understand. During this period of time, I will always be with His Royal Highness Leticia and fulfill my responsibilities as a fiancé."

"...You don't need to perform too well. Most of the time, just continue to train Leticia. After all, you only need to do it once in a while in public. You don't need to go out with her every day - she has too much energy. Well, let’s keep it in the manor to avoid a little trouble.”

The temperature of Christina's voice dropped a little.

"After all, the imperial capital is not very stable recently, and it's not good to go out all the time. You should also pay attention to this. Don't let Leticia say anything, just follow her. Sometimes you have to be tough and refuse her request, otherwise If so, some negligence is always inevitable."

"...I see, Your Highness."

Claude sighed helplessly from the bottom of his heart, saying that Her Royal Highness really learned the essence of the emperor - to use high-sounding words to be domineering, and to say that others have no temper or reason.

"But I've just come back, so it's best to show up right away, so that others will think that I came back in a hurry. Let's start going out tomorrow."

"Your Majesty and I also think the same way—this time when I returned to the manor, His Majesty approved my three-day rest, so Leticia and I will take you to the Imperial Capital to attend some gatherings tomorrow, so if there is no other It's over, you should go back and rest early, we will need you as our flower protector tomorrow."

"It is my duty! Please rest assured, Your Highness, I swear by my family that I will never let the two Highnesses fall into danger."

Claude stood up and solemnly swore.

"Well, of course I do."

Christina smiled sweetly.

--------------------------------------------------

Naturally, there is nothing to say about the next thing. Christina took Letitia and Claude and swaggered around the capital for three days, as if she wanted to push her sister and future brother-in-law into the social circle of the capital. So no one suspected that there was something wrong with Claude's sudden return.

On the surface, the nobles and officials smiled and seemed to accept Claude, but in the dark, their evaluation of Claude was not rising but falling—everyone thought that the newly established Ninth Guard What kind of character is a young boy of the Knights, but he turned out to be an empty general who would be drawn back alone by his fiancée for a single reason.

It seems that His Majesty the Emperor did not intend to let this so-called knight genius be in charge of this knight order at all. He is just a gold-plated man with a resume. Then come to think of it, the nature of the Ninth Knights of the Guards is probably the same as that of the Fourth Knights of the Guards. Almost, they are all pure gold-plated knights.

Even some people with more active minds are already wondering if this is a cover-up expression from His Majesty, and he gave another place for gold plating, indicating that those people can start preparations?After all, how can there be a Knights of the Guards with only 4000 people?What is this enough for?

Isn't this obviously dissatisfaction with the editor, leaving a carrot hole for others to fill?

So the turmoil brought by Claude disappeared quickly. Instead, the nobles came out to say that the emperor seemed to intend to show some kindness to the nobles. He is preparing to restore his surname—maybe this Ninth Knights of the Guards is for nobles!

This made many people breathe a sigh of relief. After all, since the emperor is willing to give a step down, it means that the market seems to have risen again on the side of the eldest prince, because he has gathered most of the noble forces. It means to support each other.

And what happened next seemed to prove this point again, because the knight Claude soon disappeared from the social arena again, and only lived in Ludwig's manor. The emperor had no intention of continuing to make him popular. It's just that I occasionally see him taking Letitia out hunting, so I think he's just a simple husband-in-law of the princess.

"It's really good. After this set of deception tactics, the nobles are probably going to be dizzy."

Claude is enjoying the sweet coffee comfortably. No matter how much he eats, he will not get fat. For a person who likes to relax by eating, it is really wonderful——like this Adding coffee to milk and adding a lethal amount of sugar cubes to the drink, obviously, Leticia, who was training as a knight, absolutely couldn't touch it.

[So what's the point of adding coffee?Why don't you just drink sweet milk? 】

"The taste is too simple, and it's easy to get tired of drinking." Claude taught the younger generation how to consume more sugar with a calm demeanor, "It's like occasionally I have to do some very sunny tricks, after all, if it's been so dark, It is easy for me to let myself enter a state of exhaustion—after all, it is not so easy for me to dig a low limit."

【For example, relying on seduction to maintain the relationship between myself and Christina?】

"How can this be called breaking the lower limit? This is obviously just a simple use of one's own advantages."

Claude asked and shook his index finger slightly.

"Sometimes, feelings are a problem that has to be faced. What you have to do is to take precautions before the relationship starts to change."

【...Are you trying to say that you have a wealth of experience in fighting against sickness? 】

"It's bragging, if I meet a sick girl, I will marry directly, and they love me so much, why should I hang on to her." Claude rolled his eyes, "It's better to find someone you love than to find someone you love Your—you may not understand, after all, you are not human.”

【…】

"Speaking of which, you've been learning better and better recently. It seems that no matter whether you want to delay your graduation or not, I may not have anything to teach you in this world. Maybe it's possible to graduate early."

Claude felt a sense of satisfaction from his accomplishments.

"I didn't expect a guy like me to have a successor, although speaking of what I learned is just a hodgepodge."

【you……】

The system seemed to want to say something, but stopped talking.

"Well, what's the matter?"

【Didn't you feel angry and dissatisfied because you were involved in such a bizarre thing?After all, if you really want to say, this can be regarded as a kind of random interference and use of you by a higher civilization, right?Before you came into this world, no one asked you if you wanted to come into this world, right? 】

The system hesitated to say what she had been thinking about before. After Claude taught her so many things, she had already started to use her teacher's thinking skillfully to think. Over time, she has become accustomed to bringing Claude She used Claude's perspective to think about various things—until one time, she unconsciously used Claude's perspective to think about the meaning of her existence to him.

Then she realized, maybe the teacher doesn't like this kind of life?Don't you like being your own teacher?

After all, in the final analysis, how many layers of Claude's mask are in total, and even she dare not say that she can really understand it.

Because the first rule she enforces is that she cannot resonate with thoughts of people who are not of the same race—in other words, she cannot directly see what Claude is thinking.

Even if she clearly has no entity now, she is temporarily living in Claude's thinking space.

"Oh... so you are such a simple creature?"

Claude's voice was obviously surprised.

"Then my previous temptations felt a bit like being self-indulgent..."

【Um?You test me? 】

As soon as he spoke, the system realized something was wrong——

Because in her memory, except for that dinner party, she has never noticed that Claude made any moves that seemed to be probing at other times.

"Didn't you find out? From the very beginning of our meeting, I have been testing the information of your race, starting from asking your gender, slowly confirming that you are not a race with a physical body; and then asking you to enter various worlds The purpose and purpose of the game, I know the faction that you——the clan belongs to; Then I asked why you need to learn these things from me, and learned that you can’t directly copy my memory, and there will be other people besides me It is also your [teacher]."
