When Gilgamesh entered the city of Baron, Faust was also ordered to arrive at the new capital of the Assyrian Empire, Reese. He was the chief high priest of the Empire, and he should preside over such an important ceremony as the coronation of the queen. To sinnah's surprise, Faust also brought another queen, Semir.

Sinnah was displeased. Although he had not consulted Semir on his decision to marry Princess Qian, he also hoped to marry first and then to amend the imperial decree while creating a fait accompli. Instead of blaming Faust in public for his troubles, he asked semile, "how did you come here in the Duke plain

Semile replied, "I come to ask your majesty, do you want to abolish me and establish another queen, or do you want to marry Princess Xiaoqian as princess? If you are married to the imperial concubine, I think I should be present. The sage and the master of the state also ask for it. If you want to abolish the queen and set up a new one, I will listen to my face-to-face to see what my fault is? "

Sinnah looked embarrassed. He wanted to attack, but he held back. He waved and said, "white, please show me my empire blueprint."

White, the great magician of the court, bowed to the center of the inner hall, waved his staff to show a piece of light and shadow. The light and shadow appeared as a battle sand table. After unfolding, it was a three-dimensional topographic map of the Tianshu continent. Different regions were marked with different colors.

The golden area is the territory of the original Assyrian Empire. Neville city is a golden light spot. There are two yellow areas. One is the six city states of the newly occupied kingdom of Baron. The location of Reese city also has a gold dot. The other area borders the Assyrian Empire through the Assyrian plateau, occupying half of the northern part of the thousand mile fertile soil of the DUK plain. The location of Salem is also shown by a gold dot.

Obviously, the yellow area in the DUK plain is the land planned to be occupied by the Assyrian Empire. In the mind of sinah the great, Salem already belongs to the Assyrian Empire.

What is more intriguing is that there is also a pink area in the map, which not only includes the present territory of the kingdom of balun, but also extends westward, including the land occupied by the khati Kingdom on the West Bank of the Youdi River, the former city of Marduk, and the southern part of the DUK plain.

This is sinnah's vision for the Assyrian Empire, not only to control the entire kingdom of balun, but also to extend his sphere of influence beyond the Western Bank of the Euphrates River and occupy the entire DUK plain. By then, it will be an unprecedented Empire, with the Euphrates and the Rhys rivers, including the Assyrian plateau where they originated, within the Empire.

In this inner hall are all the important officials of the Empire. In addition to Semir, Faust and white, there are also the prime minister alpha of the Empire and the generals of the two frontline armies. Sinnah pointed to the blueprint and said to semile, "do you see the position of the three gold dots on it? It is the three capital cities of the Empire. Neville is needless to say. We are now in the city of Rhys, the secondary capital. The queen of little Qian will live in the palace here, symbolizing the rule of the Assyrian empire over the kingdom of Baron. "

Semil frowned and asked, "who are you preparing for the other capital?"

Sinnah said with a smile, "for my queen, you! That's another capital I'm going to build. It's going to have the most beautiful palaces and shrines in the city. The palace in DUK plain belongs to you. "

There was no surprise in semile's expression. He said faintly, "Your Majesty, it's very thoughtful of you."

Sinnah pointed to the position of Salem and said: "although the battle of the giants was defeated, the war in the kingdom of Baron has subsided. I will soon send the elite troops into the DUK plain and smash the resistance of Salem. As long as Salem was captured, the northern part of DUK plain was the Xinjiang region of Assyrian Empire. In addition to the existing city of enril and the city of Salem, the eastern and western regions are enough to develop three new city states. At that time, a new palace will be built for you and me and for the queen. "

"The great king, the invincible Assyrian emperor, the whole continent will be subject to your majesty," he said

Faust frowned in secret, and the blueprint clearly outlined sinach's ambition. His strategic plan was obviously to be divided into three steps. The first step is to capture the east of the Rhys River and the northern part of the DUK plain in the kingdom of Baron. At present, this step has been generally realized. The only "small mistake" is that the city of Salem has not been successfully attacked.

The second step is also close to success, which is to control the whole kingdom of Baron through Princess Xiaoxi, marry her as Queen, and then make her queen baron. Sinnah's public display of such a strategic blueprint is both a consolation and a warning to Semir. He is going to build a new capital for her, symbolizing the rule of Xinjiang in the DUK plain. At the same time, it is also a reminder to Semir not to make trouble and to marry Princess Xiaoxi is the strategy of the Empire.

Semir didn't say anything. He felt tired after the war and withdrew from the occasion of the celebration of the monarch and his ministers, while the ministers offered their blessing and praise to sinnah.

Sinnah was discontented when Queen Semir withdrew. In recent years, the queen has been so indifferent to him that she almost never smiles, and even refuses to live with him under the pretext of practicing advanced physical skills. However, sinnah has always been able to tolerate. The reason is very simple. Compared with a woman, a nine level warrior who is almost invincible on the battlefield is much more important. Besides, this warrior is still the queen, which is a great inspiration to the morale of the imperial army.Looking at Semir's departure, sinach asked Faust in a low voice: "the sage's teacher, the queen seems to be in a bad mood. Why do you let her come?"

At the moment, if you are not satisfied with the way, your majesty will not be satisfied! Perhaps you don't know much about women. What queen Semir wants is not a new capital and a palace specially built for her. "

Sinach looked at Faust: "Oh? Is it true that the sage, who has been single and pure, knows women better than I do? "

Faust lowered his head and said, "maybe I don't understand."

……

Princess Xiao Qian's motorcade had been on the road for more than ten days and spent the night in the last town on the West Bank of the Rhys river. The next day, she was going to cross the river to enter the city-state of Rhys occupied by the Assyrian Empire. The big river ahead was the new boundary between the Assyrian Empire and the kingdom of Baron. Sinnah sent heavy troops to wait at the ferry on the east bank. The name was to greet the princess, but it was also a show of force.

On that night, in a mountain jungle not far from the crossing of the Rhys River, the great magician Jackie led a group of deities and warriors to camp quietly. They did not light a fire. Their weapons flashed faintly in the night. They were discussing the plan of assassinating Princess Xiaoxi all night. These people have to do it before crossing the river. When Princess Qian crosses the river, they will have no chance.

In the moonlight, there is a sand table model in the middle of the open space. It is the place where they arrange the ambush. It is a Valley Road between the two mountains. A string of small stones are placed on the road, representing the motorcade and the escort of Princess Xiaoxi. Jackie pointed to the sand table and said, "it's just as soon as we get to the daris river ferry. It's the most relaxed time for them to be safe for so many days.

The most elite guard force in the motorcade is the Assyrian Imperial Guard of honor walking in the front. The commander is a great warrior. At the rear of the team, there are a group of warriors from the kingdom of Baron to protect them. In the middle, there is Princess Xiaoxi's guard. We don't have to fight all the guards, choose the narrowest part of the road and suddenly strike from the middle.

After success, they quickly dispersed to the mountains according to the original plan, and no one was allowed to stay. I have arranged for good people to spread news in the kingdom. Some people will say that Princess Xiaoxi committed suicide, while others will say that she was assassinated by Assyrian military fanatics. "

A deity nearby nodded his head and said, "we have spread the news that someone in the Assyrian army is trying to assassinate Princess Xiaoxi, so let sinnah investigate it himself We set up a magic array on the mountain. Before we started, we suddenly collapsed the rock and cut off the convoy. We must make a quick decision But Peili, the great magician beside the princess, is not easy to deal with. Now it is said that there is another medanzo who is in charge of business

Another man interposed: "leave it to me. Lord Jacques and general ace entangle medanzo. The others attack the princess's carriage with all their strength. Don't be obsessed with war. When the guards before and after react, everything is over." The man, with his face covered and his sword on his waist, looked like a warrior, but his voice was Cain, the great magician.

Cain also joined the assassin team, but he didn't come to assassinate the princess. Jackie wanted to lay a trap on the mountain road to cut off the princess's motorcade. Unexpectedly, this plan was known by Perry in the morning, and there was a trap waiting for Jackie. The deities brought by Jackie from the Baron theological academy and the dead men of the Baron army will be caught in the mountains, and Prince von Nuel will be charged with the crime of the emissary behind the assassination of the princess.

Cain and Jackie discuss the plan of the assassination, to make sure that every detail will not be flawed. He can't help but smile. He seems to have seen himself and Perry join hands to capture Jackie alive. Just at this time, Jackie suddenly raised his head and made a warning gesture. All of them stopped their voices and took up arms.

"Don't be nervous. I was sent by his Highness Prince von Neuer!" A group of warriors came out of the forest in the distance. Behind them were dozens of deities. In the middle was Robin, the commander of the Baron army and general of the kingdom.

Jackie was surprised. He put up his staff and saluted, "my Lord, how can you find here?"

Robin replied, "Your Royal Highness has known what you want to do for a long time. A group of deities and samurai suddenly disappeared. How can they not be noticed? He has ordered me to pay attention to your actions for a long time. Your Highness has forgiven your plan to assassinate the princess of the Kingdom, but only if you stop immediately and can't put it into practice! "

Jackie said anxiously, "but you should understand why I did this. Now everything is ready, just need to..."

Robin interrupts his words decisively: "I have found this place. Can you guarantee that the Assyrian Empire did not think of you? If you really go to assassinate, it is likely that you will only die, but you will put your royal highness in a disadvantageous position. I'm here to carry out your Highness's orders. If you don't want to betray your country, go back with me immediately! "

Cain was greatly disappointed. Seeing Robin's appearance, Cain realized that his plan to trap Jackie and others had failed. Both Jackie and Cain were not reconciled, but their warriors saw that the commander of the army was coming, and with the latest orders from his royal highness, they had already bowed their heads and walked past. Before the assassination was carried out, they were declared bankrupt.

……

The next morning, when Princess Qian's motorcade set off again, madanzo found something wrong. Instead of sitting in the original car, the princess changed into a carriage guarded by the dark cloth magic array and mixed in the dowry delivery team. Many guards also took weapons and hid in the motorcade, but somehow, some new faces appeared in the team. They all looked like experts. They dressed up as ordinary warriors and accompanied them on both sides of the convoy. It was obvious that they were ambush, waiting for the assassins to come!Medanzo asked Perry what was going on, and Perry told him that there was a long and narrow road between the two mountains, which was the most suitable terrain for ambush and assassin, so he should be prepared in advance in case of any accident. Medanzo did not say much. Today should be the last day for him to escort Princess Xiaoxi. The purpose of his coming is to protect the safety of the princess. It is better to be prepared.

Not long after their departure, they entered a mountain road. The Valley Road was narrow and long, and the mountains on both sides were steep. It was very suitable for ambush.

However, until the motorcade came out of the mountain, the surrounding was always quiet, and nothing happened. When the motorcade reached the plain, another group of warriors appeared in the dense forest on both sides. The leader shook his head at kripps, which means that there was no discovery. It seems that not only the motorcade is ready, but also there are ambushes in the mountains. If the assassins really choose to start here, they will be caught in a net.

After she stepped out of the mountain and entered the plain, she returned to her carriage. The river crossing was not far ahead. Medanzo, still dressed in red and riding a white horse, followed the princess's car. The two teams of warriors who came out of the dense forest joined the guard team. They were relieved.

At this time, people heard the intensive sound of horse's hooves, and the guards could not help but get nervous again. Medanzo looked back, and saw a team under the banner of Prince Feng Niu was chasing after him.

They blatantly displayed the banner, and Prince Feng Niu himself also came, which obviously could not have come to assassinate. Just listen to a voice and shout, "Princess highness, Prince von Nevin came to see you off." The speaker was Robin, commander of the Baron army.

When the motorcade stopped, Prince von Neuer came to Princess Xiao Qian's carriage from the side. She picked up the curtain and asked, "my dear nephew, how did you come here?"

Prince Fengniu saluted on the horse's back and said, "my dear aunt, you want to marry far away, and Feng Niu is very reluctant to give up. A few days ago, I was worried about state affairs and didn't have time to see you off. Today, I went to the border line. I will personally take you to the ferry, where I will hold a banquet for the warriors of the Assyrian Empire and express my thanks on behalf of the kingdom of Baron

Princess Xiaoxi laughed, looked at him and waved: "it's rare that you have such a heart. You've chased me so far away! Come on, take my car and we'll go to the ferry

Prince Fengniu turned down from his horse and said, "my nephew has this intention. I want to ask to go with my aunt in the same car." He left his guard and got into the carriage of Princess Xiaoxi. Besides him and the princess, there were two maidens beside the princess.

Prince Fengniu and Princess Xiaoxi are traveling in the same car, and medanzo is also paying attention to what they will say in the car? As soon as Prince Fengniu sat down, he said frankly, "my aunt, I have an agent who tried to assassinate you. The original plan was set today. Fortunately, I found out and stopped it in time."

"I can understand why they want to do that. Thank you so much for stopping it! Perhaps the success of my assassination will be more beneficial to your position in the kingdom. "

Prince von Neuer shook his head and said, "no matter what happened between us, you are innocent at this moment. On the other hand, whatever the reason for your marrying sinach, it may not be a bad thing for the kingdom of Baron. "

Princess Qian looked at the nephew, who was two years older than her, and said meaningfully, "those people under you who want to assassinate me are not only impossible to succeed, but also do you no good at all. If you really have such a trick, be careful next time. Don't let people prepare in advance. Instead, it will become a trap for you

Prince von Neuer in the car and madanzo outside the car were surprised at the same time. Princess Xiaoxi's words clearly reminded that the assassination plan had been leaked for a long time. In such a secret operation, spies of the Assyrian Empire were mixed in. This kind of reminder is also a bit sad, because Princess Xiaoxi is also implying that if you really want to assassinate me, you can't make such a mistake. If you don't have the ability, don't do that kind of thing! If you can't do such things well, how can you be a competent monarch in the future?

Peili and the watchers of Assyrian Empire could hear every word of the dialogue between Princess Xiaoxi and Prince Fengniu. If Prince Fengniu gave her something or conveyed any message, even if it was only written on paper to Princess Xiaoxi, the detection magic array in the carriage could be detected at any time, and they had no chance to discuss any conspiracy.

When the motorcade arrived at the ferry, Prince Fengniu personally helped Princess Xiaoxi to get out of the carriage. At this moment, the expression of Princess Xiaoxi suddenly froze. Feng Nu had a plan! He took her arm and got out of the car. When he let go, he gently brushed the back of her hand. There was one thing missing and one more thing on Princess Qian's hand.

This is a decorative Sequin that the princess sticks to her fingernails. It's made of thin curved shells. It's very beautiful. Prince von Neuer replaced one of them, and the new one was as flawless as before. However, this piece of nail plate has been specially treated with divinity. It contains a magic message that will disappear immediately after it is sent out. The content is a word that can be heard only by Xiao Xi.
