Roland!
This is the capital of the Great West Empire, named for its abundance of Roland. However, because it is so incompatible with the style of the Great West Empire, it is jokingly referred to as the soft spot in the heart of a muscular man.
After all, the Great West Empire was known as the "Iron-Headed Empire of the West," a typical macho empire that would fight anyone who disagreed. Now, it had a capital city named after a flower, which was quite amusing.
However, the people of the Great West Empire greatly admired this flower, considering it a symbol of mystery and nobility.
Abaddon admired the blooming Roland, a rare moment of peace settling over him.
During this time, he finally managed to defeat Abide Leier and force him to retreat from the Great West Empire, allowing him to catch his breath.
"Your Majesty, it's been so long since you've come to keep me company!" A beautiful woman said with a resentful look in his arms.
Abaddon kissed her, then said with a helpless expression, " Hill, I am the Emperor of the Great West Empire, and you are a married woman. You need to be mindful of your image!"
The woman was his lover, Hill, but she was a married woman, the wife of the city guard officer Amur.
The two met at a dance, and then it was like lightning striking.
The two often communicated and mediated with each other afterward. Even after Abaddon ascended the throne, they maintained this relationship as lovers, though he visited her less frequently.
His victory over the people from the Land of the Far West had put him in a great mood, so he came to rekindle their old friendship, partly to vent his frustrations.
"Pay attention to the impact?"
Hill rolled his eyes and said irritably, "When you were sleeping with me just now, didn't you care about the consequences? You're an emperor, for goodness' sake. Are you afraid of a mere city guard officer Amur?"
Abaddon couldn't help but chuckle, without answering her question.
How could he possibly be afraid of a city guard? To put it bluntly, he's just a gatekeeper. But the problem is, he needs to be mindful of his image.
If an emperor were to sleep with the women of his ministers every day, who would respect him? His ministers might even rebel.
He immediately changed the subject, laughing, " Hill, this time we defeated Abide Leier and obtained a gem necklace, which I came specifically to give to you!"
After saying that, he took out a necklace from his pocket and placed it on Hill's chest.
The latter's eyes lit up when he saw the deep blue gemstone. This was an extremely rare and exquisite sapphire necklace, an absolute treasure. This man had really put his heart into it.
Beep!
She kissed her hard, and said sweetly, "Help me put it on!"
Ha ha!
Abaddon laughed heartily and put the necklace on her.
The deep blue gemstone on his fair chest became the most beautiful embellishment in the world, prompting him to kiss her passionately.
Hill toyed with the sapphire in his hand, reluctant to let go, and asked curiously, "Your Majesty, what kind of people live in those Land of the Far West? Do they look different from us?"
"Haha, they are indeed somewhat different. Their skin is darker and rougher, and most importantly, they smell terrible," Abaddon laughed.
"It stinks! Don't they ever take a bath?"
Hill looked disgusted upon hearing this; such a smelly person must be a lazybones, it was truly repulsive.
Abaddon laughed heartily, thinking how charmingly naive this little woman was.
Just as he was about to speak, he was suddenly startled by a strange whistle. This was his guard's signal, so something must have happened.
At this point, Abaddon forgot all about the pleasures of love, pulled Hill aside, and then beckoned his men over.
What happened?
"Your Majesty, there's a problem at the border!" the guard said gravely.
Abaddon's pupils contracted, and he said in a deep voice, "What's going on? Is it the Frostwest Empire?"
"No..."
Without hesitation, the guard immediately brought up the matter of the border.
Upon hearing this, Abaddon's heart skipped a beat, and he frowned, saying, "A force called the Great Han has appeared on the border and wiped out the Black Skull Army?"
"Yes, Your Majesty!" the guard nodded.
Hiss!
Abaddon's expression immediately turned serious. The Black Skull Army fought extremely bravely, yet they were defeated by this Great Han. This must mean they have ill intentions!
He muttered to himself, "What's going on? It feels like the situation is getting out of control."
First there was this Xue Rengui from the Great Tang, and now there's this Great Han. It's completely different from what I imagined. How come it's so different?
However, there is one advantage: someone will be able to share the burden of Great Liang in the future.
The strength of the Great Tang and Great Han dynasties is unknown, but their ability to rise above the northern powers indicates they are not to be underestimated.
So in some ways, this is good news.
However, a problem arises: if the Great Han can defeat Frostwest, he can also defeat him; he must not be careless!
Thinking of this, he said in a deep voice, " The Great Han is marching south. What is their target? Do they threaten our borders?"
"No, they went to the Frostwest Empire and are launching a fierce attack on the Great Jade River."
"They went to fight Bill IV?"
Upon hearing this, Abaddon's eyes lit up; if that were the case, it would be good news.
Not only will someone share the pressure from Great Liang in the future, but it will also weaken the Frostwest Empire further, which is definitely a good thing.
Although he was going to Great Liang alongside Frostwest, he could absolutely accept it if Frostwest were to be slapped a few times; in fact, he would be happy to see it happen.
This Great Han is incredibly understanding; I should probably get to know him better.
After a moment's thought, he immediately came up with a solution and said in a deep voice, "Let's reinforce the border. The enemy is powerful, and we cannot be careless in the slightest, or we will suffer a great loss!"
Also, send someone to contact the Great Han, see what his attitude is, and try to befriend him!
yes!
The guard nodded and made a note of these things.
However, a problem occurred to him, and he whispered, "Your Majesty, now that we are allied with the Frostwest Empire, I'm afraid Bill IV will want us to help them."
Given that the two countries are allies, the Frostwest Empire would never let this opportunity slip by and allow the Great West Empire to watch from the sidelines.
"That makes sense!"
Abaddon nodded slightly. That was indeed a problem. He couldn't help but chuckle, "In that case, I'll leave Roland first. If the Frostwest envoy arrives, tell them I've gone to contact the Land of the Far West. They need to hold them off!"
He then turned to Hill and smiled, "Honey, I should be fine staying here with you for a few more days, right?"
"Real?"
Hill beamed, instantly becoming excited. She pouted and said, "If that's the case, you'd better get rid of Amur, otherwise you, the emperor, will be cheating on him!"
"Haha, I'll just promote him and send him to the border! But Hill should thank me properly for this promotion!" Abaddon pinched her cheek and said with a smile.
"..." The guard on the side twitched his lips. The emperor was too smooth!
