Common Sense of a Duke’s Daughter

By mistake with Bern, Tanya brought Lyle and Dida back to the room.

That's a good time.

"I'm sorry I'm so quick when I get back... Tanya. Bring me the report on the stockpile in the realm now. Then, Lyle Dida. the current number of private soldiers in the Guard and the Armenian Duke's house, and then the number of personnel able to command them."

"I'm in awe"

"I'll get right to it. But, ma'am. Is something wrong...?

Tanya immediately bowed her head, followed by Lyle and Dida, too, but Lyle has asked such questions as whether she had doubts about my instructions.

Well, that's what happens when you say it all of a sudden.

"I just got a report from your father via Bern. That there was a note that the army should be dismantled."

"" Become... ""

I kept my surprise out to the Trinity. Sometimes it's because he's from the Armenian Duke family, but he's a grandfather's apprentice who's a general, and he's worried about his grandfather.

"Fortunately, it stopped around your grandfather and father..."

To the following words, all three exhaled in a ho.

"The problem is the flow, the facade on it, and the content on it."

"... what does that mean?

"Turn it down first, but this is just my personal view. Sometimes you're wrong."

To my forefront, the three of them nod.

"First, flow. This case begins with the whining of Baroness Yuri Neuer."

"That woman's, is it?

Without even trying to hide it, Lyle said the words offensively. It's unusual for him to expose his emotions so far, and to be grumpy.

"I don't know what form Tanya's report is, but I think she's connected to the Twilight Nation."

At what level and how? Maybe... maybe he's threatened, he's just being used unconsciously. again, maybe it really is the other spire.

They are uncertain, and there is no certainty that they are connected. However, I thought about this one on the assumption that I didn't want you to hit me.

"While the father of the Pledge of Pleasure couldn't move because of my faults, what a disbandment of the army...... a proposal I never wished for for for the Twill Nation began to move. In retrospect, that attack on me by Pope Darryl, to prevent your father from moving, Master Yuri... or whoever was behind it might have pulled the thread."

That's better, it sticks. I guess it was also promised by them that the Pope was moving forcefully towards my exclusion.

In my remarks, the three of them were so uncomfortable that they could hear their tongues pounding.

"So. This is the problem from here... I agree with you on this one."

"Naturally, you're a second prince, aren't you?

Lyle gave me what I expected.

"That's it, that's not all. As a matter of fact, this time, the Neutralists gave me an endorsement."

"Even from the Neutralists, is that..."

Lyle squeaks as surprised. Next door, Tanya and Dida also had a rugged look on their faces.

"But what's in it for them?

"... legally expanding armaments, I thought."

"What do you mean?

"Lyle and Dida, as you know in particular, once we lords possess the least amount of military power... we are largely sized by territory."

This is the remnants of a time when the Lord's authority was greater.

There was considerable opposition when it came to concentrating troops, and he said that this was the halfway point as a result of the quest to organize one as a “national army” at the very least.

"Where the lords hold each other down and have excessive power, surveillance will come from the kingdom."

By doing so, the aim is to prevent the departure of the lord.

"So, the plan that was put out at the same time as the play of this military dismantlement is that after the military dismantlement, each lord will distribute the soldiers, and each lord will take his/her place in military expenses by keeping them in the custody of each lord, and if something happens, will give them to the state.... Oh, my God, it's just a reversal of the old days when lord authority was the greatest. There are a few neutral aristocrats who want it..."

"I want to secure my strength for when something happens.... Well, in a tangible way, you mean you're only looking at the kingdom?

Dida went on to say what I was supposed to spin.

"That's the thing. I don't know if you want to be aggressive or pull into territory."

"So? Confirm your strength and the princess wants to fight a fight with someone like that? You think we're going to be shields of the kingdom, swords, and fight together?

"No way. It's for what if. In order to protect our territory in times of internal distress."

"Hmmm...... But..."

Dida's tone was, as always, drifting but somewhere serious.

Is that why... I don't know if it's because I'm shocked by the content of the song earlier, but Lyle is usually quiet too, blaming the tone.

"At that point in time, it's the princess acting for the lord who gives orders to soldiers who belong to the territory, isn't it?

"... right"

Probably, though.

Your father falls prey to central politics.

Assuming I did not have the status of Lord's Representative, I would still have given direct instructions from the King's Capital, even if the decision on a case that weighed so much took time to instruct.

Even Sebastian, who has a proven track record of being entrusted with territory until now, does not have the authority to make that decision.

But if I had the same authority as the lord, I wouldn't have to.

Rather, there will be a need for rapid response, and are there people who can use them and do not use them?
