Anna actually had an engagement with the son of the Governor of the Island Republic, so Dust deliberately concealed Anna's identity when he came to the Island Republic to seek medical treatment.

But as soon as this incident broke out, the "sick nobleman" was the princess Anna Cornelia Scipio of the Seven Hills Empire, and could not be concealed. After learning the news, the governor of the Island Republic immediately sent a group of servants to take care of Anna. It is said that the chubby son of the Island Republic also visited Anna several times, but every time he came, Anna's condition was not suitable for a long conversation.

Ella felt that the marriage between the princess of the Qiqiu Empire and the son of the Governor of the Island Republic was somewhat strange. After all, the Island Republic was elected. Although the elected Governor served for life, his son would not have much influence in the country after the Governor died. But she just felt it was strange that she did not care about Anna's engagement.

The good news is that Anna's body improves every day, not only does her body temperature drop, but her wounds gradually recover.

Avicenna was also thrown into death row by the Island Republic on the charge of attempted murder. Since he murdered the fiancee of the governor's son, the interrogation process was extremely concise and he was convicted in just half a day.

But not all news is good news

"What did you say? Paracelsus hasn't found it yet?"

Ella's loud voice could almost lift the roof off.

"Yes, the guards of the Island Republic have already searched Avicen's home!" Amy covered his ears and tried hard to make his voice clear. "Avicenna's home, the home of his disciples, the home of merchants selling Avicenna's medical books, and even the large bathtubs that Avicenna went to every day were searched inside and out, but Paracelsus was still not found!"

"What do these guards from the Island Republic eat? Amy, call us all up and go find them with me!"

Ella hurried out of the door, but met Giovanni who wanted to enter.

"Govanni, you're here just right, about Avicenna..."

"We are still inquiring." Giovanni snatched the conversation, "Beyond this, there is something more important to you, the King of Sweden. The materials that the Governor promised to give you have been prepared. Please follow me."

Giovanni took Ella to a warehouse, which was filled with food, weapons and gold and silver. Giovanni turned around and handed a thick stack of paper to Ella's hands.

"From my mission to the Pirate Kingdom to now, I have been in total for four months and thirteen days. The compensation is calculated at a rate of 10,000 times the price of the most elite mercenaries. The Swedish king used 20,000 troops. The troops of Novgorod and Khasa Khanate were not in the agreement, but the governor ordered me to count them together. The relevant list of materials is already here. Please check the Swedish king."

Ella was slightly surprised. No matter how much the price, she started to calculate the time after the troops gathered in Gotland, which was only less than four months. The Island Republic started to calculate the time from the day the messenger arrived in Gotland, which was too generous.

"Our military expenditure is calculated based on mercenaries. How should we deal with Azov City?" Amy asked, "Can we hand it over to you directly?"

"No - the Governor regards the King of Sweden as his partner, not a mercenary. Since it is the City of Azov captured by the King of Sweden, the Governor is naturally willing to invest in the purchase. If you look back, the price of buying the City of Azov is already on the list."

"Well... I didn't expect your governor to be pretty good."

"What's wrong, it's too far from your attitude at the beginning!" Amy cautiously protected Ella behind her, "What's your intention to do this?"

Giovanni smiled and bowed to Ella.

"There is no intention, it's just to enhance relations with the pirate kingdom. However, the Governor also has a plan, and would like to ask the Swedish king if he has the intention to participate."

"What's the matter? It's easy to say! It's easy to say!"

The strings of numbers on the list made Ella extremely comfortable, making her laugh a little hard to stop. Amy even wondered if Ella would just laugh like this and she would leak out of Harazi.

Giovanni took a deep breath.

"King of Sweden, do you think the Seven Hills Empire is too old and decaying?"

Ella's smile was frozen.

"Govanni...what do you mean?"

"We island republics believe that we also have the bloodline of the Seven Hills Empire. The Governor wants to destroy the already unforgettable ancient empire - and then create a new kingdom belonging to the Seven Hills."

Amy was stunned: "You want to go to war with the Qiqiu Empire? Are you not a vassal state of the Qiqiu Empire? Didn't your governor's son have an engagement with Princess Anna? I heard that you also lend a lot of money to the Qiqiu Empire..."

"Borrowing money? That's just diplomatic funding. When the Qiqiu Empire asked us about the borrowing, the Governor wanted to refuse, but after my persuasion, I agreed. Do you know why? Because this is a diplomatic policy I dedicated to the Governor."

Giovanni proudly described the long-term plan he designed in front of Ella:

"Borrowing money to the financially tense Qiqiu Empire can show that we have no ambitions. They cannot repay the money when they expire, and I further propose to slow down the repayment date through marriage. In order to show our 'loyalty', even this engagement is married by the son of the governor. Otherwise, how could the Qiqiu Empire sit and watch us go to war with the Republic of Liguria? How could it sit and see the Pirate Kingdom attack Azov City without regard?"

“…It would be your strategy to treat us as cheap mercenaries?”

"Of course. If you hadn't captured Azo and destroyed the fleet of the Republic of Liguria, how could our war be so easy? But the Seven Hills Empire probably realized that something was wrong. A few days ago, they had sent envoys to mediate our war. We spent so much money to push the plan to this point, how could we easily give up the interests we were about to get?"

"So what?" Ella asked seriously, "The Seven Hills Empire intervened and mediated. How can the Seven Hills Empire and the Republic of Liguria join forces, and the Island Republic will undoubtedly be defeated. How are you going to deal with this scene?"

"I suggest that the Governor agree to mediation temporarily. The mediation meeting will be held in Constantinier in half a month. But the Governor will not go - this half month is enough to eliminate the remaining fleet of the Republic of Liguria and return from the Republic of Liguria. What will begin in half a month will not be a meeting of peace talks, but a war with the Seven Hills Empire!"

After a pause, Giovanni added with a smile:
Chapter completed!
