I will be crowned king

Chapter 978 News of departure

The requirements given by Fabian were also very simple... Although his originally perfect plan had a slight change due to the assassination of the mission, several of the most important goals were still achieved in the general direction.

For example, they have allowed the Ambassador of the Free Confederacy to gain control of the Cecil family (no). For example, their personal friendship with the ambassador himself (cannot be discussed) has made Furaura become the key point between the Cecil family and the Free Confederacy. The bridge of friendship (does not exist).

All in all, with Fabian's careful planning and the girl's perfect execution, they have taken control of both the mission and the Cecil family!

The problem lies in the details: due to the assassination of the mission, Beigang and the Cecil family will inevitably pay more attention to the security of the mission. If they want to sneak in another person, especially "an outstanding young girl like Laura Fula", they will It’s very difficult, so we must adopt a more low-key and obscure approach.

Laura completely agrees with this, especially the "outstanding young girl" part.

And this low-key method, simply put, is to let Laura and a certain person who will never be noticed by Beigang and the Cecil family, but who is very respected, leave early and wait until they arrive in Clovis City to meet with the envoys. Group rendezvous.

As for such a suitable candidate, Fabian has already found one, which is why he must first go to Anson to report the situation - he must have his permission.

"Master Christian Bach." Fabian said solemnly: "He is the brother of the commander-in-chief. The guest invited by Beigang himself can be said to be the most suitable candidate."

"On the day of departure, you will pretend to be Lord Christian's maid and leave on the steam train. For the sake of the Commander-in-Chief, the Cecil family will not investigate too seriously."

"We have already discussed with Mr. Christian. You and he will get off the bus at the stop after North Port and wait for the Storm Legion to arrive. The power of the Cecil family is only within North Port. Even if they notice the problem by then, it will be too late. It’s too late.”

"At that time, Fula, whether you plan to leave alone or go to Clovis City with us, it's all up to you. I will never stop you, but..."

The deputy commander of the legion who was half-crouching in front of the girl suddenly took the girl's red right hand, looked up and looked at each other: "If the ring of order protects the humble Fabian to have this honor, I sincerely hope that you can and We...no, we are going with me on a journey that only belongs to you and me."

"This is just my personal extravagance, not any mandatory requirement. If it is difficult for you, I will totally..."

"No!"

The blushing Laura suddenly broke in and said, "Pah!" and held Fabian's hand in turn, staring at the honest and responsible man in front of her: "Fabian, this is not just It’s your dream alone, and it’s also...also..."

"It's also our common wish!" Although she mustered up all her courage, the girl still spoke euphemistically: "From the day we met, I clearly realized that only you can give me what I desire most. The kind of life you ask for but don’t get!”

That's right, because at that time we all have to count on you to say a few nice words in front of the mayor of Beigang. Of course, I will say whatever you want to hear... Fabian was unsmiling and his eyes were also extremely serious: "Miss Fula Laura, you You are a very brave girl, but I am also really worried about whether you have the consciousness to pay the price?"

"Of course!" the girl replied without any hesitation:

"Wealth, status, I don't care about these; there is only one thing in my heart, and that is to become what I want, not what my family forces me to be!"

"I want to experience the most thrilling adventures, I want to witness events that change the continent, I want to challenge the most impossible mission, and I want to embark on a never-ending journey!"

"In short, I want to bid farewell to my past self forever and start a new life that belongs only to me; my life must not be mediocre that can be seen to the end at a glance!"

The impassioned Laura stared at Fabian who was squatting on the ground, and shouted her declaration in her loudest voice. Her bright red cheeks were accompanied by the girl's slight gasp, as if she was being electrified. Trembling slightly.

The silent Fabian was in awe of this. He was very sure that this time the girl definitely did not copy the lines from any novel, but the words that had been imagined countless times in his mind and finally got the chance to say it.

After all, no newspaper would be willing to accept this kind of crappy content, even if it were a children's book - including the New World's "The Good People of Beluga Harbor".

………………………………

Fabian here is trying his best to comfort the girl, praying with all his heart that the eldest daughter of the Cecil family can finally retreat and not cause any trouble to himself; Anson on the other side has already brought the little secretary with him Visit the mayor of Beigang and prepare to directly tell him the unspeakable secrets between his daughter Fula Laura and the deputy commander of the Storm Legion.

When the Storm Legion set off from North Port to the colony, they still needed to see the face of the Cecil family. Of course, certain things that could easily cause conflicts and misunderstandings between the two parties should be concealed as much as possible.

But now the situation is different. It is the Cecil family who in turn seeks help from the Storm Legion, which gives Anson sufficient bargaining chips to resolve the personal emotional issues of his loyal subordinates.

This is not only a personal issue for Fabian, but also related to whether the alliance between the Cecil family, Anson himself, and even the entire Storm Legion is stable; as we all know, from ancient times to the present, the most effective guarantee for a covenant is the hostage, so the wealthy family Families will happily marry each other just to prove their sincerity to their allies - or in the words of the little secretary, it is "handle".

From this point of view, Laura Cecil's identity is simply perfect.

First of all, she is a direct relative of the Cecil family. She is young and of the right age but has no marriage partner yet; Fabian is an army colonel, deputy commander of the Storm Legion, and Anson's most trusted subordinate - except for the fact that he is not a noble. There are some flaws, but they do meet the standards of marriage.

Even if Fabian or the Cecil family did not agree to the marriage, Anson had considered it, and the solution was straightforward - they did not need to actually get married, as long as Flora Cecil could be free As a non-staff member of the Confederate mission, it is enough to accompany the Storm Legion to Clovis City.

Anyway, he has done everything he can. Whether the loyal deputy commander welcomes true love or kills a girl's fantasy with his own hands, it all depends on him.

With sincere blessings for Fabian, Anson waited expectantly for the mayor of Beigang's affirmative reply, and then...

"Sorry, I cannot agree."

The mayor of Beigang, who was silent for a long time, seemed to have made a huge determination and expressed his refusal sternly: "Please stop this matter here. How about I just pretend that you have never been here?"

"..."

Before the stunned Anson could think of how to answer, the little clerk next to him immediately took over the topic: "Excuse me, what is not in line with your wishes? Is it the identity of Colonel Fabian?"

"If that's the case, I happen to have a genealogy of his family here. I can use facts to prove that the colonel has at least one-thirty-second of the royal bloodline, and has had connections with at least twelve wealthy families in Clovis City that are over a hundred years old. in law……"

"No, no, no, that's not it!" the mayor of Beigang quickly interrupted: "I have no dissatisfaction with Colonel Fabian's family background. Really, even if he is just a civilian - ah, of course he is not a civilian - but Even if it is, I don’t care about it.”

"Then... I guess it must be status?" The little secretary nodded thoughtfully: "I understand this very well. It is indeed wronged for a daughter of a wealthy family like Miss Fula to deign to marry a colonel. A little bit more; but Colonel Fabian has just turned thirty this year and is still in his prime. In the foreseeable twenty years of his military career in the future, he will definitely be able to continue..."

"It's not this!" Mayor Beigang said again:

"I'm actually very satisfied with this. For such a young colonel, the whole kingdom can count on his fingers. Besides, Colonel Fabian rose to power based on his own abilities rather than his family background - this is even more rare!"

"It's not family background, it's not identity. I understand..." The little secretary suddenly realized and frowned slightly:

"Indeed, property is always the most important topic in marriage. Many sensible people - including me, of course, and our Commander-in-Chief - believe that this issue is at least as important as feelings, and it is natural to pursue a better life. If Miss Fula Laura can not change her living habits, or even just maintain the 'poverty' she perceives, it may not be possible without enough wealth."

"But I am very honored to tell you that you don't have to worry about this little thing at all; Colonel Fabian's wealth...how can I tell you simply and straightforwardly..."

"Let's put it this way, before he left Beluga Port, his property was at least equivalent to one-tenth of a gold mine, a steel factory, a manor with three thousand acres of arable land, plus..."

"Etc., etc!"

The mayor of Beigang hurriedly stopped the little clerk who was about to continue talking, and looked at Anson with a pleading look: "You misunderstood, the reason why I want to refuse is not because of Colonel Fabian, but because of Laura!"

"Miss Fula, are you worried that she will be wronged?" The little secretary still refused to give up.

"no!"

"Are you worried that she won't be able to accept military life?"

"No!"

"Oh, what exactly is that?"

"I'm worried that she will cause trouble for you!"

"..."

The little clerk turned around without saying a word and looked into Anson's eyes.

"It's absolutely true. I'm definitely not exaggerating." The mayor of Beigang said earnestly: "You don't know my daughter. Even though she looks cute and cute on the surface, she seems to be a qualified lady, but she is just for coping. Other people’s appearances!”

"On the contrary, she has been immersed in novels for no reason for a long time. She always regards herself as some kind of criminal who is so arrogant that she loves to perform, and she is always carrying out her so-called carefully crafted 'criminal plans'!"

"But that's not the most terrifying thing! The most terrifying thing is that she always feels that she hides it very well, and people around her can't notice it at all." The mayor of Beigang's expression became more and more frightened: "You can never imagine that in order to deal with her troubles The troubles that came out cost our family so much effort!"

"After so many years, we finally got many wealthy families in Beigang to accept her existence and are willing to cooperate with us and pretend to turn a blind eye. But the consequence is that she even thinks that she is actually quite successful, so she continues to do more and more. I... sigh!"

The mayor of Beigang sighed heavily: "Of course I am very happy to let her marry Colonel Fabian; but your destination is Clovis City, where the big families and dignitaries will not accommodate a foreigner like her. Girls; if your self-righteousness causes you big trouble, then it will be the responsibility of the Cecil family!"

"In order to avoid the most dire consequences, although I also know that doing so can increase our trust in each other, please allow me to politely refuse - my ridiculous daughter is really not suitable to live anywhere other than Beigang. !”

Anson: "..."

This reason somewhat caught the two of them off guard, and they were completely unprepared; especially looking at each other's expressions, it didn't seem like they were deliberately making excuses or lying at all - besides, if this was the reason, it would be too far-fetched.

Just when the three of them were at a loss as to how to continue the conversation, Viscount Bogner walked in very coincidentally, along with Carl Bain, who was originally there to appease the soldiers.

Neither of them said what happened, but their solemn expressions were enough to show the seriousness of the problem... Anson stood up, hesitated for a moment and then said, "Something happened?"

The corner of Viscount Bogner's mouth twitched, but he still looked at the chief of staff silently. The latter nodded slightly and looked at Anson with a somewhat complicated look: "Half an hour ago, the envoy from Clovis City arrived at North Port. .”

So fast... Anson couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Although due to various reasons, the Storm Legion set out nearly half a month later than the Clovis Crusade Army, it was only half a month; from arriving in Clovis City, explaining the situation to the Privy Council and the royal family, to The Privy Council and the royal family reached a consensus and sent envoys to announce their opinions on the Storm Legion...

With such a long process, even if the rulers of the entire country exert extraordinary efforts and reach a unified opinion, it will never be possible within two or three months.

Then the answer is clear. Ludwig Franz's opinion on how to deal with him had already been decided before he returned to Clovis... Anson, silent in his heart, looked at the two of them: "...how? explain?"

"Brigadier General Anson Bach and all the officers and soldiers of the Storm Legion failed to stick to their posts during the colonial rebellion, and interfered in the internal affairs of other countries without any notification to the kingdom or permission, and acted on their own during the Holy War, which has seriously constituted a serious problem. All charges of violating military discipline and betraying the oath of loyalty!" Karl said word by word:

"According to the laws of the kingdom, immediately report to the Supreme Court of Clovis City with the review officer of the Ministry of War, and wait for your decision!"
