"Don't have any worries, this is not a bad thing..." The corner of Elizabeth's slightly pursed mouth draws a beautiful arc

"I have arranged a grand parade for you, and I hope you can participate."

"This is a stage specially built for heroes. You are the protagonist..."

(~▽~)

Chapter 58: Monthly Ticket Plus

"A grand parade?" Merlin frowned, seeming not to like this thing very much.

"Yes, I think you know that too?" Elizabeth paused and continued, "Now there are a lot of people outside who want to see your grace."

"So what? The group of people outside has nothing to do with me." Merlin voiced helplessly and hated being entangled. He was a big demon, and somehow became a hero. If the demon knew about it, he would treat himself Treat it as a mutineer.

If Merlin was an ordinary demon, he would really not worry about these things, but he happened to be a noble monarch.

Even if he is being fired, his words and deeds will represent the position of the Demon Race, and it is easy to be passed on to the ears of the Demon Race Council, severely poked on the backbone, and said something bad.

Now Mei Lin is very fortunate that he has always been wearing a mask, no one knows his own old bottom, otherwise the human empire will not be able to mix, and there will be great dissatisfaction on the demon clan's home.

"How can there be no relationship at all? You are now a hot figure in the empire, and your reputation has spread to other empires. As a public figure, you have the responsibility to guide your followers." Elizabeth Yuqing Yu Li said.

A big bead of sweat shed on Mei Lin's forehead, thinking what the hell is a believer!?When did you become the faith of a certain cult?

"Well, even if I have some responsibilities, there is no need to make it so troublesome. What kind of grand parade, can you just use a little bit of strong voice?"

"It's a pity that I have tried the method you mentioned, and I can't get rid of it. Now it's a critical moment for the rejuvenation of the imperial capital. This kind of thing is really a headache~" Elizabeth rubbed her forehead with her hand. My eyes secretly looked at Merlin's expression, "I have already prepared the money for your Excellency, but now this matter makes me a little bit overwhelmed, there is no extra energy to fulfill the agreement~"

"Tsk! You guy... really cunning enough." Merlin gritted his teeth, finally understanding what it means to owe money to the uncle

Elizabeth is a human being, I am afraid it is a fake to disperse the onlookers, it is true to use my reputation to stabilize the current situation...

In fact, the real situation is similar to Merlin's guess, and Elizabeth has her own little abacus.

The prestige of the imperial royal family is indeed at a disadvantage compared to Elgin's great swordsman, and its appeal is extremely strong.

Therefore, it is a bit unwise to choose armed confrontation, one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers.

In addition, the strength of Elgin's great swordsman was there, and it was not a hard bone that the imperial royal family could bite.

But fortunately, Elizabeth doesn't think Merlin has great ambitions. It's relatively safe. You don't mess with me. I don't bother to mess with you.

The most important point is that the entire empire needs Elgin Great Swordsman, and absolutely cannot be hostile.

The reason is that an empire standing in this world requires a very strong deterrence of force, that is, the hole card, otherwise it is easy to cause other empires to covet and suffer brutal aggression and plunder.

The world is now in a period of relative peace. Isn't it because the forces of each empire are more balanced?

Now the fairy in the lake has fallen into a long dormancy, the British Empire has lost its cards, and its deterrence against other empires has weakened.

Under this circumstance, the great swordsman of Elgin seemed extremely important. Elizabeth was thinking about making full use of the reputation of great swordsman to make him the nominal guardian of the empire.

All the factors added up, Elizabeth chose to treat Elgin's great swordsman with a gentler strategy, and wanted to take this ride.

It means to rub the heat of Elgin's great swordsman so as to achieve Elizabeth's two goals

One is to let all the people in the empire see the friendship between the great Elgin swordsman and the royal family, stabilize the situation within the empire, and show the broad mind of the royal family.

Second, it's acting for other empires who are eyeing the eye. In layman's terms, we are very familiar with the Elgin swordsman. Don't think that the fairy in the lake can't be used, we are just soft persimmons.

In fact, Merlin knew the little abacus that Elizabeth was playing in her heart. He was also a ruler. How could Xiao Jiujiu of this level not know?

Merlin had her own considerations in her heart, mainly because the idea of ​​living a peaceful life prevailed.

He must be unwilling to keep the empire in turmoil at all times, and it is easy to break his still peaceful life.

Even if Merlin doesn't take the initiative to find trouble, some things will come to her door by herself. What's more, there is still a stinky lady in the family who shouts "Justice will win" every day?

Anyway, Merlin won't admit to worrying about Elizabeth's promise, so he agreed to go out for two laps!

The next day, the grand parade planned by Elizabeth herself began

A ray of sunlight rushed out of the horizon and just projected on the central street of the imperial capital, illuminating the statue of the founding emperor of Britain.

Although the current imperial capital is a bit dilapidated and no longer prosperous in the past, it is difficult to stop people's enthusiasm.

I saw outside the walls of the imperial capital, crowded with people, and I couldn't see where my face rested, and there would be small-scale chaos from time to time.

But everyone seemed to be here for Elgin's great swordsman, and it seemed that nothing major would happen.

In this parade, all the remaining bauhinia knights were dispatched, there were thousands of people, to maintain order on the scene.

Several newspapers and media rushed to take pictures of Elgin's great swordsman and used them to make big news.

Many reporters squeezed forward with the enthusiasm of breastfeeding, just to find the best shooting location, and almost fisted each other.

There were more people in the square, and everyone walked up and down, and the darkness was overwhelming, like a continuous stream of waves in the sea.

Many admirers of Elgin's great swordsman wore the same silver masks and black robes, and they held the indistinguishable "Vientiane Jialuo" in their hands.

I have to admire the eyes of the businessmen. In order to make money, you can really make anything. As long as you get in touch with the great Elgin swordsman, you can make a lot of money.

However, if the elders of the Demon Council see this situation, they will probably vomit blood in anger, because forging the king's weapon is a capital crime and cannot be forgiven!

In the corridor of the palace

Chapman led several bauhinia knights and escorted Merlin, and he also wanted to prevent the Diao people from rushing to do things.

Merlin was also heavily wrapped today. Although there was not much change in the outfit, the black robe he was wearing was much more gorgeous than usual.

The pure black robe is bordered with gold thread and the collar is raised high, giving the whole person a lot of energy.

I don't know if Elizabeth deliberately reverberates the audio and video, Merlin's black robe chest is embroidered with the royal emblem, a golden lion.

At this time, a few people walked towards the end of the tunnel, intending to meet the cheers of the crowd.

Chapman respectfully followed Merlin, his expression nervous, his forehead was sweaty, and he hesitated for a while and said, "Great...Your Excellency, I...I have a small wish, I don't know if you can satisfy me. After going out for a while, I am afraid there will be no chance again."

"Ah? What?" Merlin turned around as he walked, looking at the man who is not too young.

"It's... yes..." Chapman awkwardly took out the pen and paper from his arms, his face blushed because of his excitement.

"Can you sign me?"

"Actually, I have admired you for a long time..."

(???????Ω??????)?

Chapter 59: The Same Return

"This one……"

Merlin hesitated, looking at Chapman's hopeful little eyes, it was kind of arduous.

"Just write down your name. If it is really inconvenient, then forget it." Chapman smiled awkwardly, and didn't make any impudent demands. "Actually, the day after tomorrow is my daughter's fifth birthday. She admires you just like me, so... I want to get your autograph and give her a birthday present."

Merlin frowned slightly. Although he didn't like the trouble of signing, he was a little moved by Chapman's father's mood.

Children's requirements are generally not high, and maybe a gift that can make people happy is enough.

Merlin had a slight impression of Chapman, who at first seemed to have seen him at the guard in Wrexham.

At that time, Chapman's attitude was not very good. He thought he was a liar who was talking nonsense, and he liked to say big things.

Merlin still remembers these things, but normal people will look down on Merlin. It can't be blamed on Chapman for not knowing the goods. Who would have thought that this is such a dark iron adventurer without magic and vindictiveness, who is the famous Elgin swordsman of the empire?

Merlin wanted to laugh a little now, recalling Chapman's attitude back then, and seeing how Zhan Zhanhe asked for an autograph at this time, it was very interesting.

Merlin didn't intend to embarrass Chapman. After all, he was not a small-bodied person. He was guilty of losing his identity to a small person, and the other party was still a good father.

"What's inconvenient for this kind of thing, I can sign as much as I want."

Seeing Elgin Great Swordsman stretched out his hand, Chapman quickly handed over the pen and paper respectfully, "Then...then I will trouble you..."

Merlin took the pen and paper, and started to write as soon as he came up, but when he first wrote two pens, he was shocked.

Because of her own habits, Merlin almost wrote her real name on it, revealing her true identity.

There was a drop of cold sweat on Merlin's forehead, and his eyes were a little surprised, almost making a big mistake.

Chapman noticed the abnormality of Elgin Great Swordsman and asked in surprise, "What's the matter with you? Is it okay?"

"It's nothing." Merlin shook his head, quickly crossed out the front, and wrote Elgin Great Swordsman on the back, and added a happy birthday, before handing it to Chapman.

"Thank you, thank you so much..." Chapman was delighted in his heart, took the signature of Elgin Great Swordsman and looked at it, his smile gradually solidified on his face, ashamed of thinking

This one……

how to say?

The words of the Great Swordsman is a bit ugly.

At the end of the tunnel.

The four thorn knights are waiting here, and they need to be present with the Elgin Great Swordsman, but they are a foil.
