Blood Princess and the Knight

"Icehelm City has fallen." Austin sat on the high throne and looked at the subjects below with a solemn expression.

"The pagans who believe in the ancestral gods have already invaded Luobo City. Everyone, the defense strength of Luobo City will definitely not be able to survive. Cypriel's side

We have to send troops to support us. But now, even in the imperial city, there are not many troops that can be mobilized. Therefore, we must send a brave and resourceful general.

Go and fight, who of you is willing to take the initiative?"

As soon as the emperor said these words, the scene was silent

We have lost all our elites and no one dares to fight anymore?" "Your Majesty, I am willing to share the emperor's worries. "-A tall man in fine clothes stood up and bowed deeply towards Austin.

"Oh? Sir Orin, are you willing to lead the troops in battle?"

"It is the honor and obligation of my subjects to serve His Majesty, so I naturally do my duty.

Okay, great! You can lead 10,000 troops to support Ice Helm City. "Austin said with a happy face.

"Your Majesty, I have a small suggestion."

Oh? What's your suggestion?" "The Forbidden Army deployed to guard the imperial city may not be enough. I understand that not only the Forbidden Army is needed, but I also have to send my own troops there. "

"Oh? Mr. Olin is really loyal." Austin praised.

"Of course, it is my honor to serve your Majesty! Your Majesty, this army needs to purchase a variety of military weapons and equipment, and the expenditure may be

"It doesn't matter. How much you want, I will ask the treasury to allocate it to you later.'

"Thank you, Your Majesty! I will definitely make a triumphant return. If you fail and return, I will raise my head to see you!" After saying that, Olin stood up with his chest straightened out.

The court was over, and Austin was convinced by Olin's impressive assurance, which also relieved a piece of his heartache. "Miss Maid, isn't today the day for the court? Why didn't I see that stupid female knight?"

"Your Majesty, Miss Bai Ming is not of high enough rank to attend court." The head maid explained to Austin.

"Ah? Isn't she high enough?" Austin was stunned. "Then why was she able to come up to listen to politics last time?"

"It's because of your Majesty's order that Miss Bai Ming was made an exception to go to court."

Is that so? Then what is she doing now?"

"Your Majesty cares so much about Miss Bai Ming, why don't you go find her in person?" the head maid laughed. "Where do I care about her?! It's just that without that stupid woman to cause trouble for me, life feels a lot less fun."

"Shin snorted. "Then, do you want me to call her?" "No, why do you do this? It's like the emperor is begging to see her. "

"But isn't His Majesty worried about how to deal with those heretics these days? Miss Bai Ming may be able to take care of your worries."

"Is she, that dull-minded person, so smart that she understands what I'm talking to her about?"

"Don't underestimate Miss Bai Ming. She has specialization in the arts. Miss Bai Ming is indeed not proficient in chores such as raising flowers and feeding horses, but war, that is her

Isn’t it useful?”

Okay, just invite her here, and remember to ask her to wear normal clothes, not just any uniform!"

"Okay." So, the head maid came to the Shenglun Courtyard with great interest and found Bai Ming practicing swordsmanship in the backyard.

"Miss Bai Ming, His Majesty asked you to go to the palace. He said that he needs your help with some government affairs."

"Your Majesty's order is obligatory." Bai Ming nodded.

Oh, by the way, Miss Bai Ming, when you come here, please wear normal clothes, not just a uniform. This is your Majesty’s clothes.

The instructions given.

"Proud? I understand."

Sitting in the backyard of the palace, Austin adjusted his collar several times, fearing that his collar would be crooked and cause him to lose his majesty. However, he was treated well.

When he saw Bai Ming walking towards him led by the guards, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

"Didn't I ask you to come here wearing normal clothes??"

"Your Majesty, don't you want to discuss government affairs with me?" Bai Ming, who was wrapped in plate armor, tilted his head. “Isn’t this just normal clothing for discussing government affairs?

Austin was speechless, and couldn't find the words for a moment.

"Even if Austin sighed, he was almost used to Bai Ming's abnormal thinking mode.

"Sit down and let's have a cup of tea."

"Is this an order?" Unexpectedly, a trace of resistance flashed in Bai Ming's eyes.

"Of course not, what?" "Oh." Upon hearing this, Bai Ming poured the tea in his cup into the grass without saying a word. "What do you mean?" Austin said angrily and funny. "Since this is not an order, I have the right to refuse." Bai Mingyi said seriously. "I don't like drinking tea.

"You girl, sit down for me! Then, obediently raise your tea cup and drink tea with me, do you understand?"

"This time it's an order!" Austin added.

"As ordered." Bai Ming didn't say much. She sat down and the maid next to her made tea for her.

"Why don't you like drinking tea?

"Bitterness." "Bitterness? Just because of this reason?" Austin thought there was another profound reason, but the other party's answer turned out to be so simple.

Meaning cough.

"Well, it doesn't taste good, I don't like it.

"It's really a lack of taste. Isn't it the sweetness that comes after all the hardships that you enjoy in something like tea?"

"Yeah." Bai Ming didn't refute, as if you said it was what you said.

"Hey, woman, can I ask you some questions?" Austin looked away and said awkwardly.

"You are Your Majesty, so of course I know everything.

"Icehelm City fell, did you know?"

"I've heard it all." Bai Ming put down the tea cup and said calmly. “Icehelm City is a strategic location, easy to defend but difficult to attack.

"In that case, such a city has been lost. Do you think these pagans are just a ragtag group?"

"I don't care whether it's a mob or not, Your Majesty." Bai Ming put down the teacup and analyzed. "The empire's military system originally called for all knights to fight.

The military power is concentrated in the heads of the knights who are trained as soldiers and know how to fight. Now the Blood Spirit War has wiped out all the knights and elites, leaving only the leaders of the cities.

The Lord's own garrison. ""The knights are gone, the generals who directly obey the emperor's orders are gone, the centralization of power is weakened, and the status of the lords is rising, because the emperor relies on

The rock lord fights wars, so the lord's status naturally becomes higher. "Under such circumstances, if some lords with no military ability and evil intentions come to the fore, the consequences will be disastrous." Bai Ming held the

Tea said slowly.

Austin was slightly stunned after listening to these words. He didn't expect that this dull-looking knight actually knew so much in this area. He was so eloquent.
