Chapter 244: Women's Ambition(1/2)
The imperial capital Garcia, Clark Tower, the bedroom of the former Palace of Kriza XVI.? �
Margaret stood on the balcony as high as 78 meters high, standing on the railing. The golden yellow grew and fluttered in the high wind. Her beautiful face seemed inviolable because she was at the highest point of the imperial capital, like a mask covering her majestic as prison.
This woman who controls the fate of the empire stood at the highest level of the Clark Tower in the Empire, looking down at the ground beneath her feet like the emperors of the Pound Empire. The expression on her face was unpredictable, and the light in her eyes seemed even deeper. Even the closest maid around her could not understand the inner world of this woman.
Margaret Kelsman, this ambitious woman stood at the highest point of the empire as she wished, and even the empire emperor was just a puppet in her palm.
She became one of the most powerful women after Evanjelin. Compared with Queen Camilla, the female dictator of the Falco Empire, her authority was more convincing and dominant, because the empire she secretly controlled was a powerful empire that controlled a complete Great Six, and was incomparable to the vassal states that split Noah Great Six.
To outsiders, the Countess's light is really as dazzling as the sun, and others dare not look directly at it.
But for Margaret herself, only she knows the torture and difficulties within herself.
Although she was at the highest point of the empire, the situation within the empire was not stable for her and her family. The Kelsman family was as powerful as ever. The Krenbel family, the mortal enemy of this family, lost a large amount of assets due to crazy escape and transfer. The powerful enemies of the past have become indecent. However, in the turmoil of the empire, a brand new enemy rose rapidly.
This enemy is the God of Light, which has both Crizza XVI and the Countess.
If the Kelsman family is a parasite attached to the body of the Pound Empire, then the God of Light is a parasite that resides on the huge bodies of the Pound Empire and the Kelsman family at the same time!
This religion with extremely amazing reproductive power and diffusion power spreads to every corner of the empire with a jaw-dropping degree, and even the Kelsman family was seriously penetrated!
During the sudden change of the imperial capital, the God of Light and the Kelsman family started a fierce internal battle. Both sides fought for power and profit, and even fought. The three ace Wolf, Black Crow, Haiyan and the fanatical believers of the God of Light started many secret battles to compete for the support of various major families, and both sides had their own victories.
It is precisely because of this that the Kelsman family has never been able to deal with the Krenbel family quickly. Margaret could only use the nobles inside the imperial capital, who were like jackals to wipe out the remaining "rebels" in Tulip County. Regarding the Krenbel family's escape, what made the countess even more worried was that in the distant Neilsia Sea, the black-headed pirate was growing stronger with an astonishing degree.
Sometimes, even in his sleep, Margaret would be awakened by the earth-shaking roars of the unparalleled man in the arena, and he was covered in cold sweat!
To be fair, Tang Jie's strength and power are far less powerful than the threat to the Countess and the Kelsman family by the God of Light, but Margaret always has a deep vigilance towards this man in his heart.
"You will never understand the shock he brought to you without seeing this man with your own eyes..." This is what Margaret said most when talking about Tang Jie with her close maid.
"Sooner or later, the Pound Empire will lose its long coastline in the southeastern waters!" Margaret's hand holding the carved bluestone railing unconsciously exerted force, and a sharp light flashed in her eyes. "He must be stopped, otherwise, the entire Niercia Sea will take his surname! The Kelsman family will definitely not allow another Atos to rise on the ocean!"
But, how to stop him?
Although Kelsman was extremely powerful and basically controlled the imperial capital and the royal family, the situation of the Kelsman family competing with the Kelsman family in other aspects is gradually forming. The powerful imperial royal navy has not yet sworn allegiance to the newly ascended Emperor Luther. If the naval private soldiers within the Kelsman family are used, various dangers will arise due to the long coastline supply. Moreover, the problem that the Kelsman family needs to solve is to concentrate all their strength to solve the provocation of the Kelsman family!
However, you can't let the black-headed pirate sit alone!
The two light eyebrows between Margaret's eyebrows, which were as lightly as ink pens, frowned slightly. She thought deeply: The trick she used to exorcise the wolf-eating tigers in the Principality of Marta was cleverly resolved by Tang Jie. She couldn't get out of her way to deal with him for a while, and she had to find another object that could cause trouble for him...
After a while, Margaret suddenly spoke, "Lisa, pass my order."
Lisa, the maid standing not far behind the countess, stepped forward gently and whispered: "My wife, what instructions do you have?"
Margaret said slowly: "Help me draft a letter to Queen Camilla of the Falco Empire in the name of the Crizza royal family."
"In the name of His Majesty Luther?" Lisa raised her head and asked softly.
Margaret tilted her head slightly, and glanced at Lisa in her eyes: "Of course!"
Lisa was gently swept by Margaret, and suddenly felt like she was overwhelmed by Mount Tai, and she felt like she could not breathe. She lowered her head and did not dare to look up again: "What is the text written in the letter? My wife?"
Margaret was silent for a while, then a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Just say that the princess of the Falco Empire has been kidnapped by Tang Jie, a pirate of the Nielsia Sea, and Prince Kirk, who was married to Prince Angel, also died because of a rebellion. Princess Angel's safety has nothing to do with the Pound Empire. If the Falco Empire still takes care of the royal family's decentness, then rescue her quickly..."
"Is that true..." Lisa thought for a moment, nodded and said, "I understand, I will do what you mean."
Lisa squatted slightly and was about to leave, but she heard Margaret's hand raising and whispering: "Slow!"
"What else do you have to tell me? My lady?" Lisa replied respectfully.
The Countess said: "Don't add the sentence 'The safety of Princess Angel has nothing to do with the Pond Empire', and don't mention Prince Kirk's coup death. Just say that Angel was taken away by the pirate Tang Jie. In addition, in the name of the imperial royal family, a formal official ultimatum to Tang Jiecha of Alcatraz Island, let him send Angel, the princess who married to the empire, within three months, within the name of the imperial family, to send him out the princess Angel, who married to the empire, within three months, or..."
Margaret paused when she said this. She raised her head and narrowed her eyes slightly at the vast sky, as if she was about to make up some decision. After a while, she said slowly: "... Otherwise, the great Pound Empire will send his invincible fleet to level his island!"
Lisa was stunned for a moment, she hesitated for a moment and said, "My wife, as far as I know, this guy is not the kind of man who will surrender because of the threat."
Margaret didn't look back and her voice came coldly: "Will he not surrender because of the threat? Will the Kelsman family and the Pound Empire surrender because of the threat?"
Lisa's body was shocked. She had already heard the extremely dangerous signal in the countess' voice. She didn't dare to say anything more. She lowered her head and walked backwards out of the room.
Shortly after Lisa walked out of the room, a gentle "tuk-tuk" knock came from the door.
Margaret said, "Come in, the door is not closed."
With a creaking sound, the door opened and a man with a burly and tired look came in. It was Carl Porter, the king of the sword fighter who had disappeared for many days.
Hearing the unique footsteps of Carl Porter, Margaret turned around and looked back and forth on him. The woman did not show any unexpected surprises, but nodded to Carl lightly: "Are you back? I thought you could not come back."
Carl smiled slightly, and his voice felt a sense of fatigue that made people's limbs heavy: "Anthony can't kill me..."
Margaret frowned slightly: "Are you injured?"
Carl nodded: "Of course, it's impossible for anyone in this world to escape from Anthony's hands."
Margaret nodded, and asked, "Where is Anthony?"
Carl said lightly, as if talking about the most common thing: "Let's go, he can't kill me, and I can't kill him either, so we two agreed not to fight again from now on."
Margaret only breathed a sigh of relief at this time. She was also afraid that Carl Porter, the King of Sword Fighter, would be killed by Anthony, and then the Sword Saint Anthony returned to the imperial capital Galcia and became the personal guard next to the emperor again.
If Anthony, the swordsman, becomes an enemy of the Kelsman family, it will be a nightmare!
Now this ending is naturally a happy ending.
Margaret smiled slightly: "It's fine if you're fine, go and have a good rest."
Carl nodded and dragged his heavy body toward the door.
Just as he was about to go out, Margaret suddenly asked, "Carl!"
Carl turned around and glanced at Margaret with a dim eye: "What's the matter? My lady?"
Margaret asked, "If you recover all of it, how sure are you to defeat Pope Lauder Leno?"
Carl frowned, pondered for a while, and slowly shook his head: "I don't know, he is the extremely rare magician in this world. The magician is the apostle of the gods in the world. He is born with unparalleled power and talent. I have never fought with the magician, so I don't know what his strength is. I only heard that he has a move to "the arrival of the Supreme God" at the cost of his life, and I don't know the others."
"Is this?" Margaret said slowly. She pondered for a while. Seeing Carl standing at the door and looking at her quietly, the countess smiled slightly and said, "You go and rest."
Carl owed slightly and walked out.
"At the price of life?" Margaret's eyebrows slightly frowned again, and slowly murmured, and a bold and adventurous plan gradually appeared in her mind.
...
Almost at the same time, on the Alcatraz Island in the Niercia Sea, Princess Angel was whispering to her personal guard Christina in her new room.
"Are you still used to living here? Dear Christina?" Angel smiled and looked at the red woman in front of him.
Christina was wearing a close-fitting soft armor as always. Her tall and plump figure showed a wild beauty unique to the tough lines under the constraints of the soft armor. This powerful level 8 sword fighter smiled and said, "It's much more comfortable here than in Galcia's days."
Christina stood beside the windowsill, lifted up the curtains, and looked at the busy scene outside the window, and said with a smile: "Although most of the residents here are pirates and rude 6 people from Nanda, they are very friendly to people, and I see a surprising and amazing vitality in their eyes."
"Sooner or later this place will become a sea kingdom..." Christina said flatly, "I have no doubts!"
"Yes, it will definitely become a powerful sea kingdom!" Angel smiled slightly, and she also turned her eyes out the window, but Christina was looking at the busy people on the castle wall outside the window next to the crane, while Angel was looking at the vast and endless ocean outside the Devil Island.
"But..." Angel sighed quietly, "No matter how good this place is, it's not our home after all!"
Christina was surprised and looked at Angel in surprise: "My Highness, why did you say that suddenly? Did Tang Jie treat you badly? Did you feel wronged here?"
Angel shook his head, and a happy smile appeared on his face: "No, following Tang Jie here is the least regretful decision in my life. I can even understand why my mother never confessed the pirate who robbed her from beginning to end... I guess she must have fallen in love with the rough pirate who hijacked her?"
Christina looked at Angel in confusion: "But, then why did you say that? Do you want to leave here? Don't you want to spend your life with your beloved man?"
Angel shook his head again: "No, dear Christina, I long to be with this man forever, create an unprecedented sea empire together, and then slowly grow old with him."
"But..." Angel raised her head, her plump and sexy lips pursed hard, showing a kind of stubbornness and stubbornness. "Look at me, look at Tang Jie's side, every woman around her has helped and contributed to him in one way or another..."
"Pirate Niya, this is a partner who started from scratch with Tang Jie. His feelings for her are incomparable to anyone. This woman is Tang Jie's right-hand man and Tang Jie trusts the most. I can't replace her at all." Angel said lightly, his voice slightly jealous. "Magic Lilith, this female magician with the 'Awe Blue', has brought Tang Jie a powerful maritime battle ability, and she is also a partner who started from scratch with Tang Jie."
"Agatha of the Krenbel family, this woman is Tang Jie's strongest backing. Without her, Tang Jie would not have such a rapid expansion now. She added Tang Jie's growth and growth."
"As for Maria, this woman was the Haiyan of the Kelsman family. Although I don't know why Margaret allowed such important intelligence personnel to escape, I doubt her loyalty. Despite this, her ability is beyond my opinion on intelligence understanding and analysis and intelligence network establishment. In time, she will become Tang Jie's most reliable intelligence analyst and strategic analyst." Angel said lightly, and the more he spoke, the more he spoke, the sarcastic expression on his face became more and more obvious.
Christina, who was standing beside her, felt heavier the more she heard it. She lowered her eyes and whispered: "Are you jealous of them? My Highness?"
As the captain of the Royal Guards of the Falco Empire, Christina was used to the intrigue and power struggle between women in the palace. She knew that wars between women in the palace often originated from endless jealousy.
Jealousy is the original sin of mankind, especially women.
The current booming situation of Alcatraz Island and the coordinated and stable state in all aspects made Christina, who had been intrigued for a long time, secretly rejoice. She likes this peaceful and isolated island very much, and likes the vitality here even more. She does not want the peaceful and peaceful island to be destroyed by the struggle between women, especially the woman who caused the trouble is still her master.
Angel smiled slightly after hearing Christina's words, and looked at Christina meaningfully, saying, "Do you think I'm jealous of them, so you mock them?"
Christina lowered her eyes and didn't speak.
Angel smiled and said, "No, I am mocking myself, dear Christina?"
Christina raised her eyes and looked at Angel in confusion.
Angel sighed, she turned around and looked out the window, looking at Niya, who was standing on the city tower sweating heavily and directing the black slaves to work, she said slowly: "Look at them, they are all useful people to Tang Jie. Look at me, what can I bring to this man?"
Angel's mouth curled slightly: "Sometimes I look at myself in the mirror, and I even feel like a vase, a vase that was robbed by this pirate and placed at home as a decoration!"
Christina said anxiously: "My Highness, no, your wisdom and power are incomparable to anyone! Captain Tang Jie knows it very well!"
Angel raised his head and smiled: "Wisdom? Maria is not inferior to me at all! Powerful scheming? Can you use powerful scheming in Demon Island? My powerful scheming is used to fight for power and profit. Who am I using here? To you? To Tang Jie? Or to Tang Jie's women?"
Angel turned his eyes to the sea far away from the Demon Island, and she said in a deep voice: "My power and wisdom can only be effective and valuable if it is placed on a stage like Garcia..."
Angel's tone revealed a kind of helplessness and sadness in his tone. After all, life is difficult to achieve both. She got love, but lost the stage to display her talents.
Christina listened to her sadness. She knew Angel very well and had a clear understanding of her ambitions and talent in her heart. She didn't want to see Angel become a cage of golden silk birds. Christina was silent for a while and asked, "My Highness, what do you want to do?"
