Chapter 661 The Past
Liszt recalled his past. The year he was born was exactly the end of the year when his elder brother Qin was born, which was almost a year apart.
If the mistress had not given birth to a boy, perhaps he would not have come into this world.
But Liszt had no complaints. In fact, it was precisely because of this time difference that his childhood life could be considered happy.
That year, the principality had just been established, and the Augusta family became a member of the southern continent that could not be ignored.
As the illegitimate son of the Grand Duke, his life was actually much better than many small nobles.
At this time, Tiona suddenly spoke: "I remember that year, the little wooden horse you played when you were a child was sent by me, and Qin also had the same one."
The memory of childhood came back to life. Liszt still remembered the wooden horse that had accompanied him for several years, but he never thought that it would be sent by the mistress.
"I used that wooden horse too," Hans recalled with a smile. He and Qin were exactly two years apart, so he had used obsolete toys.
In this regard, the Augusta family was no different from ordinary families. The new wooden horse was not even as attractive as the one left by the eldest brother.
Similar toys are more likely to resonate.
There was a touch of emotion in Lister's eyes. It turned out that he was not ignored.
Tiona saw it and felt a little guilty for no reason. A little bit of care could make this child grateful.
In fact, her thoughts at that time were completely different from now. She gave Lister a wooden horse just to remind him to abide by his duties.
Speaking of it, it was really childish and ridiculous when I was young. I even cared about a child.
Speaking of the wooden horse, Elf and Michelle also remembered their important toys in their childhood.
"We also have a small wooden horse." Elf showed her emotions and seemed a little excited.
In this way, the eyes between each other softened a little, and there was really a taste of family affection.
So several people began to take turns to recall the past, and the atmosphere gradually became warm.
Gradually, the food was served, and everyone was not in the mood to eat and drink. They had a simple meal and were more reminiscing about the past.
Lister has a good memory. The details of his childhood are vivid, which can easily resonate with others.
Tiona also listened patiently. Not only did she not feel long-winded, but she could also occasionally interject a few words.
The atmosphere was surprisingly relaxed.
…
Overseas colonies, after a long journey across the ocean, Sanger finally returned to his own territory.
After returning from the prosperous Great Xia Empire, he obviously did not adapt well.
Fortunately, this time he was different from before, he had obtained the status of Lord of Great Xia, and he would not be the same person as the Lionheart Kingdom in the future.
Look, he cooperated with Prince Charlie as Lord of Great Xia Empire, and immediately received a warm reception from Councillor Joey.
In the past, he and Councillor Joey had similar status, and he had never seen how enthusiastic the other party was.
This time, in cooperation with Prince Charlie, Councillor Joey not only sent someone to meet him in advance, but also waited in person.
Prince Charlie also came, he came back one step earlier, and had achieved certain results.
The Overseas Colonial Parliament wanted to expel him, but unfortunately the fortress had been breached from the inside.
So Prince Charlie was in a good mood, and this start was much better than expected.
When two large warships approached, Prince Charlie looked far away with a happy face: "Joey, with these two battleships, we don't have to be afraid of them anymore."
Congressman Joey publicly supported Prince Charlie, and naturally he would be suppressed.
After all, the Lionheart Kingdom is a traditional power in the Western Continent, and it began to learn the military and science and technology of the Great Xia Empire early, and various small warships can be completely self-sufficient.
In the past ten years, the Lionheart Kingdom Navy has been replaced. It is incomparable with the Great Xia Empire, but it has no problem bullying other competitors in the Western Continent.
If it weren't for Congressman Joey's batch of ironclad ships, he would have been killed long ago.
At this time, he saw two warships that were attacking at a reduced dimension, and he was naturally very happy.
"Your Highness, give me two months, I will definitely be able to block those guys from the mainland."
Congressman Joey was full of confidence, and there were only warships in his eyes.
Prince Charlie nodded. If he couldn't get anything done with such support, he might as well go home and farm.
This batch of materials brought by Sanger was very large, especially standard weapons and equipment, which could equip an army urgently.
Prince Charlie was no longer naive, and knew that it was useless to rely on eloquence to seize colonial power.
He was ready, and it was worth it even if it meant bloodshed and sacrifice.
Anyway, it was not the turn of the nobles to bleed, and there were a large number of lower-level soldiers to sacrifice.
As the two were talking, Sanger's ship finally arrived.
According to the procedure, they began to dock, and then Sanger jumped off the ship first.
Prince Charlie happily stepped forward to greet him and took the initiative to reach out and hug him: "Sanger, my good brother, you are finally back."
Sanger was frightened by the overly enthusiastic Prince Charlie, but when he saw Councillor Joey accompanying Prince Charlie, he seemed to understand something.
Anyway, the two were not ordinary familiar with each other, and there was no problem in being more intimate.
He also hugged Prince Charlie and said very sensibly: "Your Highness, I am back, I will obey your call and take back the glory that belongs to you."
This was almost a naked rebellion. After all, the Queen Lionheart was still in power, and it was not his turn as a prince to talk about taking back power.
However, the people present did not change their expressions, and they obviously knew what they were doing.
As the saying goes, wealth and honor are sought in danger. Since you have chosen this path, you naturally understand the consequences.
Councillor Joey was already heavily tied to Prince Charlie, but now he has strengthened his determination.
Prince Charlie gradually demonstrated his political power in order to give confidence to his allies.
After all, it is too difficult to overthrow the rule. If they are not given a little confidence, I am afraid they will not be able to hold on.
Sanger came at the right time, bringing various weapons from the Daxia Empire.
These weapons can arm a group of people and boost morale.
The fact that they can bring these weapons means that they have the support of the top leaders in Daxia.
For example, Councillor Joey immediately felt relieved.
He is also very motivated to do things, and you can see that he is full of confidence.
Of course, the most important thing now is to unload the goods.
With Sanger's order, the fleet began to unload the goods.
These are all goods from Daxia, and they finally arrived at their destination after crossing the ocean.
This time Qin made a great effort. Many weapons are very sensitive and it is too difficult to make them.
