Rogero, who was wearing a cloth robe, was also quietly looking at the ceiling with simple patterns; and slowly thinking and recalling what he had experienced during this period after returning to China. At least after encountering so many things, he had already
Be mentally prepared for repeated scrutiny and long-term confinement.
Therefore, he did not expect that the senior officials of the Knights and the ministers of the Holy Kingdom would believe what he saw and heard. Despite this, he was just released and received incredible courtesy and preferential treatment; especially those who
Nobles and high knights from Aquitaine.
An almost endless stream of people came to visit him, bringing various gifts and making various conditions and promises; there were even several heads of regional knights trying to win over him, a Castilian, to their side.
Serve as deputy, military judge, chief coach, etc.
Of course Rogrigo knows why. Because as one of the three core territories of the Holy Royal Family, the Principality of Aquitaine, inherited from the consort family of Saint Laurent, has long been lower than Britannia, the hometown of Saint Laurent, and
The Catalan end of Saint Laurent’s base of rise.
Therefore, when the local armed and military factions of Aquitaine, headed by the Knights of Enoli, broke the Holy Kingdom's general policy of "limited intervention to protect the crown" and rashly intervened with large-scale armed forces, the southwestern part of the Kingdom of Zealand was in chaos, and
After actually suffering a disastrous failure.
Naturally and inevitably, it triggered a shock from the upper echelons of the Holy Kingdom. Because in the hundreds of years since the establishment of the Holy Kingdom, due to the temporary rise and fall of the country's power and the threat of the rise of powerful enemies, knights became institutions that were destroyed in foreign wars.
There are only more than ten groups in total.
The most recent major defeat was in the Chivalry War in the 1940s. As a result, in this partial intervention war of the Kingdom of Zealand, a regional general regiment and multiple regional knight divisions were easily lost.
Regiments and sub-regiments, and hundreds of honorary knights.
This also gave some powerful people and factions in power in the Holy Royal Court to further promote investigation and liquidation. The aristocracy in the Aquitaine region and many knights with interests formed political factions, acted without authorization and defeated foreign troops.
culpability and deprivation of more local rights.
Therefore, the key to a certain political struggle situation invisibly fell on Rogrigo, the only witness and witness who was released. Therefore, on the one hand, his early mentors and witnesses were brought out, implying that
He was able to truthfully report the "truth" about the defeat in every detail.
On the other hand, someone sent a message through his former fiancée, Simone, who had just married and became Countess of O'Dono's Court in the Principality of Lyon. I hope he can see that the late San
His Majesty Qiao was kind enough to protect the relevant political factions.
For this reason, the Grand Duchess of Urraca, who has a deep relationship with Aquitaine, can designate him as the teacher/assistant knight of the grand duke's heir; even if there were rifts and conflicts in the past that caused him to have a home in the south and be unable to return, the current Grand Duchess can
Prince Alfonso VI of Catalonia also participated.
He secretly stated that he could forgive Rodrigo's disrespectful offense, but he must make a contribution. Therefore, in addition to the Breton faction who temporarily stayed out of the matter, a political trend targeting the Aquitaine faction in the Holy Kingdom was taking place in the kingdom.
There are fierce brewings between political factions, large and small.
However, he was tired of all these political intrigues and just wanted to get rid of it all and return to the south as soon as possible. Whether it was Valencia, Aragon, or even the royal court in Zaragoza; at least there was
Chaos can also allow him to express his full potential.
Therefore, after one long and boring hearing and question session after another, Rogrigo finally couldn't help but explode. He made an impassioned speech on the spot, accusing certain powerful people of having
Abandoning the original intention of the Holy Kingdom and the chivalry of Saint Laurent:
He also denounced some leaders of the knights for their pursuit of power and interests; they have surpassed the oaths and beliefs they originally swore to establish the order. They put their own selfishness and greed above the various classes and groups they swore to protect.
; Only then will we fail in a war that lacks justice.
Therefore, his speech also won the sympathetic echoes and applause of many knights and small and medium-sized nobles who were present. But in the end, when he tried to talk about the strange things that appeared in the Kingdom of Zealand, he was unexpectedly surprised.
Unexpectedly, he was stopped and scolded on the spot.
As the most respected host and witness present, the Archbishop of Galicia from the ancient city of Santiago de Compostela, the resting place of St. James the Twelve Apostles, one of the pilgrimage sites second only to Jerusalem, announced on the spot that he
The words are delusions and hallucinations.
Because according to the ancient oath, under the blessing of God and the glory of the Lord, it is absolutely impossible for those noble classes who share the rights and justice of the world to have a place for these evil spirits. Therefore, it is more of a deception method by people with despicable backgrounds.
; Or some people’s tricks and tricks.
Therefore, he was sentenced to go from the mansion where he was originally under house arrest to the underground of the Knights' headquarters; the oldest prayer room secretly opened by Christians who were persecuted by the Romans, to receive reflection and inner baptism. This result made Rogrigo unable to help himself.
I was greatly disappointed and doubtful.
Because, at this moment, he was no longer sure; was this just a formulaic denial by the upper echelons of the Holy Kingdom to whitewash peace; or was it to cover up other taboos and existences that could not be named? This rare and suspicious mood made him worry about gains and losses.
be terribly upset.
Because, compared to the previous long discussion on the internal issues of the Holy Kingdom, the last words were what he really wanted to pursue and test. However, the authority from the Archbishop of Galicia interrupted everything without hesitation; it also made him
My mind suddenly sank to the bottom.
All of this seemed to be understood by the words of the leader of the Free Army before he left. Compared with the resolute and decisive attitude of the Free Army towards killing those entities hidden in the darkness and making them public; the Holy Kingdom's
The authorities and the church are working hard to cover it up.
However, in the dead of night, when Rogrigo, who could not sleep, kept asking himself, and recalling bits and pieces of what he had seen and heard in the past, there were suddenly chaotic footsteps outside;
There was a crash to the ground, and then the door opened.
Under the dim light of the wind lamp, several young and anxious faces were revealed. They were young knights who had served as Rogrigo's apprentice and retinue at the Holy Thorn Knight Academy: they were also from a radical reformist background in the Holy Kingdom.
Members of the association; I saw them shouting hastily:
"Mr. Diaz, is that you?"
"Senior Rogrigo, we are here to release you."
"Did you know? The Archbishop of Galicia has officially initiated a motion to exile you overseas to Novaya Zemlya."
"Several grand captains and censors have already agreed and stamped their seals. The only opinion left is the opinion of the local lord, His Majesty Alfonso."
However, Rogrigo couldn't help but let out a heavy sigh again; but it was the leader of the Free Army who told him the next change in the situation... Soon after, a dozen people shrouded in cloaks
The figures flew out of the ancient Colosseum and scattered in the streets.
Standing on the only remaining terrace at the top of the Colosseum, the Grand Master of the Knights of Barcelona, with thick limbs and stocky appearance, stood side by side with Ordonez, the count of Madrid and the chief steward of the palace guard, who was wearing a rich uniform, and they were watching silently.
In this scene, it was not until everyone disappeared that the head of the group spoke:
"Why? Why is His Majesty Alfonso willing to help such a rebellious minister?"
"Your Majesty just feels that exiling him to Novaya Zemlya overseas will not completely solve the problem." However, Ordonez, the palace guard chief, who was dressed in brocade and white collar, but could not hide the red scar on his face.
He opened his mouth and sneered: "What's more, with him here, all parties have shown too much restraint."
...I am the dividing line between scenes...
And in the Dome Mountains of the Kingdom of Zealand. As the moon goes down, most of the battles in the large secret settlement of the old nobles in the cliff castle have ended. Even if there are new horses and weapons, there are no heads.
The black-armored knights came to help, but they still couldn't prevent their destruction.
In fact, ever since this black knight, riding a ferocious bone-armored war horse and wielding a long and a short weapon, appeared in the flames, he was unsurprisingly targeted and attacked; he was approached head-on.
Repelled by rotating hand cannons and thrown explosives, knocked over in the fire field...
When it neighed in a low voice again, emitting a dizzying fierce sound wave; and when it leapt out of the burning fire again, part of the black bone armor and stomach that had been exploded and shattered had already recovered.
As before, the weapon in his hand also became a moon-blade axe.
However, the next moment, several black shadows were thrown out from a distance, roaring and slamming into the black headless horseman; they were stone spirits/statue monsters carved into human bodies and animal heads. Although
The headless horseman easily dodged it, but he didn't hesitate to grab the horse's leg.
Under the weapons wielded by the black knight, with sparks flying and clattering, and a heart-wrenching clang, these stone spirits with human bodies and animal heads were suddenly knocked back several steps by debris; but they were also pushed back several steps.
Taking advantage of the situation, he tore off three black horse legs with bone armor and threw the black knight to the ground...
I don’t know how much time passed. As a heritage knight led the siege team, regardless of the cratered and severely deformed plate armor, he once again swung his hammer desperately to knock down the headless knight with black armor and black horse to the ground; risking losing his ride.
The smoke-black horse also suddenly lost its spirituality and became sluggish and stiff.
