Pendor Empire In Other Worlds - v3 Chapter 96
The meeting between and Zaimeng was arranged on the third day after the city broke, which was the morning of September 27, 1024.
The location of was in a room on the top floor of the Qatar Castle that Zaimeng was familiar with.
The two windows that open to the east bring enough bright lighting to the room. The breeze that came in took away the sultry heat from the burning fireplace.
At both ends of the long table, Lothar and Monroe sat at one end, and the protagonist Zaimeng sat at the other end.
Patrick, Miles, and Simuller, as observers and entourage, sit on the additional chairs at the door.
偌大书房, other than that, there is nothing else.
is neither a cold and dark prison cell interrogation room nor a warm occasion to entertain friends and guests.
Lothar is still a little confident about what kind of environment and what kind of people’s guardianship can be knocked out.
But speaking of it, only two or three days have passed.
Compared to the war, there is a fiery atmosphere inside and outside the city.
After the war, Qatar City suddenly became deserted a lot, to the point where it needed to burn a fireplace to keep warm.
However, this is nothing strange.
At this moment, after all, it is the end of autumn and the beginning of winter, and only one snowfall can officially announce the arrival of winter.
When the temperature drops every day, it is inevitable to feel the chill.
Although in terms of the calendar, the whole world is using the secret calendar that has been created by mages for thousands of years and has been quite perfect.
But because of the environmental differences in various places, the seasonal changes must be divided according to actual conditions.
It’s a pity, because the development time is late and there is a lack of weather professionals.
The resolution of the seasons on the Pass Plain has only determined a rough time period, but has not been specific to a certain day.
This is why it is said that there is only one snowfall before the winter is officially entered.
As for the question of how to count without snowing for a whole year.
This may be possible in other places. In Perth, unless the high temperature continues throughout the year, there will never be a single snow.
The reason does not need to be explained too much.
Of course, except for the environmental factors of cold weather.
After the war, over ten thousand soldiers in the city suffered casualties and thousands of families were crushed as a result of being suppressed during the war.
The general feeling of grief is also an important reason why the atmosphere in the city is not warm.
Even Monroe could not pay for Zaimeng’s military confrontation at this time and issue high-value pensions to the soldiers who died in the battle because they blocked their entry into the city.
For the purpose of inviting people to buy people’s hearts, it is kind enough to forgive him for his sins and attach a small amount of condolences.
However, the people of this era have long been accustomed to obeying the reasonable and unreasonable orders of the nobles in their long-term dependence.
The grief of the loss of a loved one was strong, but they only chose to bear it silently, instead of turning into turmoil.
should be considered lucky.
Still unfortunate?
Finally, we have to add the murderous atmosphere in the middle and upper circles of the city.
As Monroe took over the power of the city, with Lothar’s support, he adopted a high-pressure policy against the nobles and big merchants.
The original management of Qatar City, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as rumbling and everyone is in danger.
The two knight families entangled the guards of some broken soldiers and a few merchants, and focused on Zaimeng and the manpower led by Astana. ) Conflict broke out and was killed.
Under Monroe’s subsequent orders, all the nobles and merchants involved were beaten as Zaimeng’s rebellion, ransacking the house, or exiled.
The liquidation of the rebellious comrades soon affected most of the upper class in the city.
Those who are just ordinary performing their duties are okay to say.
When he was in power, he was in a high position, especially for those who made outstanding contributions during the war between the two sides, but he was severely punished by Monroe without exception.
Lothar’s familiar deputy mayor, Baron Carter, was almost eliminated from his noble status because he still received municipal rights during Zaimeng’s administration and actively recruited soldiers for Zaimeng.
Although he finally found Lothar’s way, Monroe kept his baronial title by ‘remembering his old love’, but his territory was reduced to a super mini baronial with only one small town.
This of course has some arrogant rights.
But at the time of the war, the nobles who were punished were all retainers of the Qatari family. For various reasons, no one raised any objections.
or objections, they were all selectively ignored by Monroe.
On the contrary, the former Earl’s Castle swordsmanship teacher, Sir Agud Matu, who was killed while protecting Monrodu and others from the castle, was highly praised by Monrodu.
In the family of , two direct descendants were promoted to knighthood, and an outstanding descendant was arranged to be a nobleman under his trusted nobleman.
Generally speaking, more nobles are punished than nobles are commended.
‘Encourage’ Monroe to be cruel to the old subordinates of the family, undermining Qatar’s power in disguise. It’s hard not to doubt Lothar’s role and motives in this.
The rumors that Viscount Lothar was embarrassed and bullied the Qatar family by force were spread widely.
But even if among the nobles, the old people who were not involved in the Jin Zaimeng camp repeatedly warned, Monroe just laughed.
If the red and white faces are exchanged frequently, the double-reed partners who are back to each other can’t be trusted.
Can you still trust these so-called old subordinates who were once not reused, but when they were in power, they were not the so-called old subordinates?
bullshit!
……
“Why, you two came to see me, just want to see how embarrassed I am now?
Even so, for so long, it should have been enough. “
Although the eyes of the two opposite people have been staring at it is uncomfortable.
But ignore the other people in the room.
The silent silence filled with sunlight, the refreshing breeze brought in, and the drowsiness after being driven away by the heat in the fireplace.
There is something long-lost for Zaimeng…
’Warm? ’
a feeling of.
‘How can it be’
fiercely waved away the words that suddenly turned up in his mind~www.mtlnovel.com~ A strong sense of irritation surged in Zaimeng’s heart, who had made up his mind not to speak.
, staring at the ceiling, turned his eyes to the two opposite people, and asked with a mocking expression.
“We have no interest in your embarrassing appearance.
not to mention.
The way you are now, it is not embarrassing. “
Looking directly at Zaimeng’s eyes, Monroe uttered a word.
From the outside, Zaimeng’s life has not been treated badly in two days. In addition, he is unwilling to admit failure, and he has cleaned up his appearance before coming. It is indeed not good for him.
In terms of mental state, being able to make a mocking expression is much better than being at a loss when he was captured.
“The reason why I came to see you is that I should see you and listen to what you want to say.”
Compared with Zaimeng, Monroe had too much calmness in his words.
didn’t have the deep hatred when he fled, there was no great revenge, and there was no arrogance and self-satisfaction to make Zaimeng a complete defeat.
is like someone who doesn’t understand what happened…
Unrelated people are the same.
This led Zaimeng’s anger out.
