The Last Frontier of Fire and Sword

After the two Swedes were sent to the castle, Chechen was soon summoned by Prince Janusz.

While Chechen and others were drinking in the tavern, Prince Yanush met with Senator Karl Lebenhaupt. Congressman Karl Lebenhaupt conveyed the cordial greetings from His Majesty King Carl X to Prince Janusz and told the Prince about the invincible Swedish army's violent advances in Poland and Poland.

"Krakow has been besieged, and now Krakow General Stefan Czarnieski has become a bird in a cage. Apart from surrendering and dying in battle, he has no second way to go. And the Cossacks Chief Khmelnitsky also sent an envoy to His Majesty the King, willing to proclaim his vassal to the Kingdom of Sweden. His Majesty King Carl X very much hopes that one day he can meet with His Majesty the King of Lithuania in Warsaw."

In the conversation, Karl Lebenhaupt used the "King of Lithuania" to refer to Yanusz Laziviu. This greatly satisfied Prince Yanush's self-esteem. When MP Karl Lebenhaupt asked if Lithuania was ready to welcome the arrival of the Swedish Marshal General Brahe Wieschensburg, Janus vowed: The whole of Lithuania is ready to welcome the Marshal. .

The entire Lithuanian region is indeed ready to "welcome" the Swedes.

Less than twenty minutes after Prince Yanush made his statement, the triangular-eyed servant passed the news that the servant of Senator Karl Lebenhaupt had been beaten to the Prince's ears.

After hearing the news, Prince Yanush flushed with anger. I just promised the messenger of the King of Sweden that this happened, and it was slapped in the face. And the phrase "welcome" now sounds particularly harsh.

"If the Swedish army in Lithuania had received such a welcome, I don't think the Marshal Marshal would be willing to come." Congressman Karl Lebenhaupt wiped his goatee and said with a smile.

In Yanush's eyes, that smile was a mockery of himself.

"I am very sorry about this matter. But I hope this matter will not affect your mood at the dinner. As for those who injured your servant, I will take care of it." Yanush assured the councilor.

"I am honored to be able to attend the dinner of His Royal Highness the Prince."

With the assurance of Prince Yanush, Congressman Karl Lebenhaupt bowed slightly and said goodbye to the Prince.

After Congressman Karl Lebenhaupt left, Prince Yanush did not immediately deal with Anjay and Mihav as he said, but fell into deep concern.

Originally, Prince Yanush thought he had gained the support of most lords and generals by making vows and buying off officials. After all, Mihavu, Anjay and others are grateful to themselves. But the beating incident made Prince Yanush vaguely feel that if he wanted to betray the Republic and throw himself into the embrace of the Kingdom of Sweden, there would not be as many people supporting him as he thought. Some people will even fiercely oppose themselves. The former Lithuanian deputy commander who was standing alone will regain a group of supporters.

In particular, this dinner will be a historic moment when Prince Yanush announced to all the nobles that Lithuania has joined the Kingdom of Sweden. If there is a basket in the dinner, the consequences will be disastrous.

After thinking about it, Prince Yanush called the triangular-eyed servant in again and asked him to repeat the events at that time in detail. Just now because of Karl Lebenhaupt's presence, the prince did not fully understand the whole matter.

"You tell the truth, you can't lie to me at all," Prince Yanush said.

In front of the prince, how dare there be a lie in the triangular eyes, he racked his brains to recall every detail at that time.

"Are you saying that only Mihavu and Anjay were the only ones who beaten?"

After listening to the reminiscence of the triangular eyes, Prince Yanush confirmed.

"Yes, yes. The Grand Prince."

"Did that Cheerchen and his companions not participate?"

"No, no."

The prince nodded with satisfaction. He asked again:

"Knight Mihavu said he would come to the dinner party tonight?"

Triangular eyes gave another affirmative answer.

Prince Yanush waved his hand, indicating that the triangular eye could go down.

"The situation doesn't seem to be as bad as I thought."

Prince Yanush lay down on the recliner and sank his whole body into the soft cushion.

"Chechen and his mercenaries did not participate in this incident and rescued the two Swedes, which shows that he and his mercenary group are trustworthy. Even though Mihavu and Anjay beat people, But they did not abscond, but frankly attended the dinner, showing that they are still loyal to themselves. What if they beat the Swedes? After all, they don't know the relationship between me and the Swedes. Maybe they did it to show me. Loyalty, everyone knows that the next goal of the Swedes is me. And what can I get if I deal with two people who are loyal to me? Swedes’ friendship? That thing is only useful when I am full of energy~ www.wuxiaspot.com~ Prince Yanush thought.

Prince Yanush wanted to be intact but was not at ease, he planned again:

"But you still have to be careful. Give the guarding work of the dinner to the foreign mercenaries in your guards, Victor de Labska can still be trusted in his loyalty. Let him take care of it. Chen's mercenary group also brought it. He just forgiven the child's fault, he is grateful to himself, and there is no doubt about his loyalty."

I have to say that people sometimes tend to think about things that are good and that are good for them. Prince Yanush is now guilty of such a problem. Although he has seen the crisis, he is still willing to mistakenly overestimate his acquisition of Mihav and Anjai, thinking that they will be loyal to him because of fame and fortune.

And this will also make him encounter an extremely embarrassing situation in the evening banquet, and eventually lay the groundwork for his fall.

Yanush shook the bell on the desk, and the attendant outside the door quickly appeared at the door.

"Is Cheerchen still outside the door?"

"Yes. He is still waiting for your call from the Prince."

"Tell him to go down, I know everything. Let him go to Victor de Labusca, and it means that he and Victor de Labska will be the guard for the evening dinner. Then the two will come together again."

After the prince had finished the order, the attendant stepped back to convey the order.

Prince Yanush took out a huge golden cross from the drawer of the desk and put it to his lips and kissed it.

"God, please protect your most loyal servant."

The jewel of the cross reflected Yanush's pious face, but not his heart.
