MTL - Heroes of Silver Moon-Chapter 759 : someone else's child
Attacking the Blue Kingdom is only the beginning of the war.
In the next period of time, Guy led the Silver Moon Fleet, and successively opened the ports of more than a dozen coastal countries, and began to dump a large amount of luxury goods looted from the Sea Clan Kingdom.
All of a sudden, a lot of complaints and pleadings poured into the imperial capital, and the human kingdoms that were attacked demanded that the empire fulfill the obligations of the leader and send troops to crusade against the Silver Moon Kingdom!
In the imperial palace of the imperial capital, the regent summoned Filippo, the Minister of the Navy, and asked, "What do you think of this incident?"
Filippo, who is nearly sixty years old, after a moment of silence, replied quite maturely: "People in the Silver Moon Kingdom are not fools. Since they dare to stir up trouble, there must be some support behind them. If we can't find out as soon as possible, If we rashly send troops to attack, I'm afraid we will suffer a lot!"
The regent nodded after listening. He also thought so. If he didn't have the confidence to defeat the empire, why would the Silver Moon King dare to provoke trouble? !
After thinking for a long time, the regent sighed: "Well, first, in the name of the Holy Alliance, go to reorganize and coordinate the fleets of the coastal countries, and build up a certain combat power as soon as possible. I will send others to the Silver Moon Kingdom to steal information. In the shortest possible time, figure out the trump card of the Silver Moon Kingdom!"
He is very clear that the compromise at the beginning has turned the Silver Moon Kingdom into a fierce tiger that devours people, and if he is not careful, the empire will fall into a big fall.
But now, under the pressure of the human kingdoms and the temples of the gods, he must deal with this tiger!
However, in recent years, there have been constant conflicts between the imperial family and the temples of the gods. Now that a war is launched, the temples of the gods will inevitably delay in secret.
After all, as servants of the human gods, these hypocrites never cared about the interests of the empire. They only wanted to gain greater voice for the gods they believed in by suppressing the authority of the royal family.
There are also those human nations that move slowly and have their own thoughts, and they are even more scattered. It may be difficult to organize and coordinate their fleets.
The seemingly glamorous empire is now so strenuous to deal with such a small country. How can this not make him, the regent, feel tired? !
After Filippo left, the regent shook his head and sighed: "The temple of the gods, a greedy and shameless fat pig; the Kingdom of Silver Moon, a tiger that devours people; and the giant dragon that is already corrupted by the empire, what a pity!"
To be honest, he is not optimistic about this upcoming crusade, but the position of the empire is here, and he has to fight it!
If you win this battle, then push the Silver Moon Kingdom flat and wipe out this scourge in one fell swoop!
It doesn't matter if you lose, just take advantage of a big defeat to clean up the maggots on the empire!
…
Taking advantage of the sudden attack, the ports of the coastal countries have been opened, and the sail fleet of the Silvermoon Kingdom is wandering around the route, protecting the safety of the merchant ships.
The human nations and empires shrank their fleets, and they would not take the risk of wave after wave of conflicts with the Silver Moon Kingdom before the reorganization was completed.
Therefore, it is rare for a calm sea to appear on the sea today...
But this is just the calm before the storm. Everyone knows that the conflict between the Empire and the Silvermoon Kingdom is inevitable, and a big battle is coming.
However, thanks to this short period of tranquility, Simon, the king who was too busy, finally had time to eat with his family.
At the dining table, Simon was drinking black tea absent-mindedly while watching the navy's request for appropriation report.
He has been busy with government affairs these years, and he has little time to spend with his son and daughter. Arthur and Elizabeth don't know much about this father, so it is inevitable that the atmosphere will be a little awkward when they get along.
If it wasn't for Irina, who is a mother, chatting with her husband and children from time to time, acting as a bridge of communication between the two parties, the atmosphere at the dinner table would have been even more deserted.
Elizabeth has a somewhat introverted personality, so she just sits restrained in her seat, dines elegantly from time to time, and maintains her image of a lady and princess.
Arthur, on the other hand, tossed the food back and forth, showing dissatisfaction, and complained: "What's the matter with the cook today?! Why did you only cook one meat dish!"
Simon raised his head thoughtfully, staring at his eldest son, then looked at Irina dissatisfied, and Irina could only bow her head guilty.
A few years ago, Silvermoon Kingdom was still relatively short of supplies.
In order to call on the people to be thrifty and enhance the cohesion of the army, he, the king, set an example and required the dining standards of the royal family members to match the army, and extravagance and waste were strictly prohibited.
Simply put, what soldiers eat, what royals eat...
But now it seems that Ai Ruina obviously didn't follow the standard, secretly prescribing small things for her children...
However, Simon didn't want to make things too difficult for his family because of such a trivial matter, so he just gave Irina a look and didn't make a big deal out of it.
But obviously, Prince Arthur, who was pampered and spoiled since he was a child, couldn't accept the soldiers' food. He kept picking and picking dishes, but he just refused to eat them, and kept clamoring for the cook to change the dishes.
Seeing the virtue of the eldest son, Simon was so angry that he slapped the table and stood up: "If you don't want to eat, don't eat it at all. Come on, take his food away from me. He won't be allowed to eat it all day today." Have a meal!"
Simon's actions startled Arthur and Elizabeth, and Irina complained immediately: "What are you doing, you scared the children!"
The maid and the attendants also looked at each other, hesitated for a long time but did not dare to step forward.
The queen has always been responsible for the big and small things in the palace. If the queen doesn't speak, who would dare to take away Prince Arthur's food? !
Arthur was also a little aggrieved, and stood up angrily: "Huh, if you don't eat, you don't eat, who cares!"
After finishing speaking, he turned around and left the dining table, completely ignoring his father's increasingly dissatisfied gaze. Anyway, his mother would definitely ask the servants to bring him more delicious meals later.
After complaining to Simon for a few words, Erina also hurried away with Elizabeth to comfort her son.
Simon looked at the empty dining table and let out a long sigh helplessly. The family reunited with great difficulty, but ended up breaking up unhappy.
…
After confirming that Simon had left the palace, Irina ordered the cook to make barbecue and brought it to Arthur's room, but even though he was hungry, Arthur hid in the room in anger and refused to come out.
There was no other way, Arina could only call Momet and ask him to enlighten her son.
Momet is the only son of Alicia and Guy. Just like Simon named his son Arthur, Guy also referred to an ancient hero in the Silvermoon Kingdom when naming his son.
This is also a common problem among fathers, who always hope that their offspring can make great achievements like those heroes.
Momet is much older than Arthur, but the relationship between the two has always been good. With his enlightenment, Arthur quickly walked out of the room.
After finishing the delicious barbecue, the two happily played court martial arts as a pastime after dinner.
But after all, Momet was a few years older than Arthur, and he had been studying at the military academy. His physical strength and skills were beyond the reach of Arthur's family.
So after a few moves, Momet's model sword hit Arthur's right hand, and under the pain, the model sword in Arthur's hand fell directly to the ground.
Looking at the sunny and handsome Momet, who is superior in knowledge and martial arts.
Arthur shook his sore right hand, and complained: "If my father's son is you, I think he will be very happy!"
Momet joked: "Why, from what you said, it seems that you have a deep prejudice against His Majesty?"
Arthur complained: "He is too strict with me, really, it is obvious that mother is usually in charge of us!"
Momet stroked his hair helplessly. From his point of view, His Majesty's actions were not harsh, but Arthur was indeed spoiled by Her Majesty the Queen.
At this time, Arthur seemed to think of something, and looked up at Momet: "By the way, are you going to graduate from the military academy this year?"
Momet's heart jumped, and he asked, "Why are you asking this?"
Arthur said with a sad face: "I heard that my father also wants to send me to the military academy. Really, I am a prince, and I don't have to go to the battlefield. Why do I go to that unlucky place!"
At this time, an old man came from the side and said with a smile: "Arthur, if you can't endure hardship, you can't be considered a real nobleman!"
"Grandpa!"
Seeing Grand Duke Gaseppe approaching, Arthur ran over excitedly and hugged him. Apart from his mother, that is, his grandfather loved him the most.
"Grandfather!" Momet bowed to Grand Duke Gasepe somewhat restrainedly.
He and Arthur have different status and status, and Grand Duke Gasepe is the ancestor of his line, so of course he should be more respectful.
Grand Duke Gaseppe looked at his two juniors, sighed in his heart, then took out a letter, and handed it to Momet with earnestness: "Don't regret it!"
"what? What?"
Arthur directly snatched the letter from Momet, opened it and looked at it: "God, this is the employment notice from the Intelligence Department, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com You are going to the Intelligence Department after graduation?! Uncle Guy do you know?!"
As the only son of the navy commander, Momet should go to the navy after graduation, right? Why go to the mysterious intelligence department every day? !
Momet pouted, and snatched the letter from Arthur again. If his father knew, would his grandpa need to work on it? !
After collecting the letter and chatting with Grand Duke Gaseppe and Arthur for a while, Momet walked out of the palace, looked at the blue sky, and breathed a long sigh of relief.
The previous him, in the eyes of others, was never him, but the son of the navy commander! Or the ancient hero who made great achievements!
But starting today, he will not be the son of the Admiral, nor the ancient hero of the same name, he will be Momette Willie! Be true to yourself!
…
After Momet and Grand Duke Gaseppe left, Arthur hid back in the room sullenly, the shadow of his father lingering in his heart all the time, making him a little out of breath.
In the evening, a servant knocked on the door of his room, and Arthur suddenly shouted dissatisfiedly: "Get out!"
A servant's voice came from outside the door: "Your Highness, Lord Laurent invites you to the banquet."
"Roren?" Arthur frowned suspiciously. His father had always disliked this man, but now this man was unprecedented. What is the purpose of inviting him to the banquet?
Arthur, who was in the midst of rebellion and middle school, hummed after thinking for a moment: "Why should I think about that guy? If he can't tame people, it doesn't mean I can't tame them!"
Dressed up by his attendants, the wise and mighty Prince Arthur, with a team of palace guards, decisively accepted the invitation and went to Lauren's banquet.
