Heroes of Silver Moon

Paper, after all, cannot contain fire.

Several actions of opponents are not without trace.

After a month of urgent investigation, the king dispatched the intelligence department to enter the aristocratic area to arrest those involved nobles when the evidence was conclusive.

Headed by the Earl of Hamilton, nearly a hundred nobles who directly participated in the operation were arrested and deprived of their titles and imperial guards.

Many of them thought that they had made contributions to the Silver Moon Kingdom. Simon did not hang them, but placed them under permanent house arrest as political prisoners.

Looking at the officials from the Intelligence Department, families forcibly taking people away, and standing on the rooftop overlooking the aristocratic district, Lauren's heart couldn't help but hang up.

Although he did not directly participate in these actions, he also contributed a lot...

Fortunately, it may be because there were relatively few traces left and no definite evidence was found. Even if Simon knew that he was suspected, there was no way to directly convict him.

It wasn't until the people from the intelligence department withdrew from the aristocratic area and no one came to knock on the door of the Hood family's mansion that Lauren let go of his hanging heart.

A mysterious man in a cloak appeared next to Lauren: "Without evidence, even if you suspect in your heart, you won't be convicted. Without direct participation, the family members of the sinner will not be implicated. I have to say, I admire us a little bit." His Majesty the King!"

Lauren seemed to have known about the arrival of this mysterious person, and nodded expressionlessly: "Yes, if it were changed to before, the entire aristocratic district might be cleaned up. From this point of view, the new law implemented by the king is also It's not that it's not good for us!"

The mysterious man smiled: "I don't understand, isn't His Majesty the king just tying himself up?"

In the past, under the premise that the king had absolute force, the king wanted his ministers to die, and the ministers had to die. Simon wanted to kill their opponents, which was just a matter of order.

Why do you have to implement the new law to complicate simple things? You must know that although the new law abolished many privileges of the nobles, to a certain extent, it also curbed the power of the king.

Lauren said with a gloomy face: "This is what makes him terrible. He broke the old order and re-established new rules. If everyone wants to obey the new rules willingly, he must set an example.

By the time he establishes the credibility of the new law, we will all be defeated!

Because, this new rule itself was made by him, within this set of rules, no one can beat him! "

The mysterious man was silent for a moment: "So many people have died, but the king still remains calm. This is a bit too cruel!"

Simon is the king, he has a righteous name, he controls all the country's troops, he is a legendary powerhouse, and he has the support of the Moonlight Goddess.

From the very beginning, the nobles had no possibility of overthrowing him, so the goal of the nobles has always been the new law enacted by the king.

As long as Simon is completely irritated and violates the rules he set, the nobles can follow suit and openly treat the new law as bullshit.

But now that he has lost so many relatives and friends, the king is still not overwhelmed by anger. Anyway, the mysterious man thinks that he cannot do this.

Looking at the aristocratic district shrouded in uneasiness, Lauren's eyes gradually narrowed, and then he was startled suddenly, and his hairs all over his body exploded.

The mysterious man asked concerned: "What's wrong with you?"

Lauren's face was gloomy, as if dripping water: "I suddenly thought of a possibility. You said, the reason why the king left the capital was because he was waiting for us to make a move?!"

In this contest between the nobles and the king, the king lost several important people.

From a personal point of view, this is indeed very sad, but from the perspective of Silvermoon Kingdom as a whole, the king's faction has only lost a few insignificant figures.

On the other hand, not only did they suffer heavy losses, but even most of the Anzi lurking in the dark were wiped out, and they lost the qualification to compete head-on with the king ever since.

No matter how you look at it, it feels a little bad...

After listening to Lauren's analysis, the mysterious man also fell silent: "If this is the case, then our king is a bit too scary!"

You think you caught someone's weakness, but in fact it was just a bait thrown by them, and then a group of idiots were caught willingly.

False and real, true and false, can't figure it out, if things go on like this, I am afraid that every time they act, they will have to consider whether they are luring them to make a move.

If you fall into internal friction for a long time, even the perfect plan will be greatly compromised.

And, if the king is really trying to lure them to make a move this time, will this ruthless king really have a weakness?

The two people on the roof were silent for a long time, the cold wind howling, and finally Lauren broke the silence: "Whether he is really negligent, or setting up a trap to lure, this contest will ultimately be a complete defeat for us. Come down for a while, you must be dormant!"

The mysterious man nodded and sighed, "That's natural. Next, we can only wait for the right time!"

The nobles have little capital, so they only have one chance to counterattack. Once this counterattack does not cause a substantial blow to the king, they will have no power to fight back.

The strength of the opposing forces has been lost by half, and if they continue to jump, the king can handle it at will, so they have to wait for the next opportunity.

And the nobles with a long heritage, the most indispensable thing is patience!

 …

In the king's study, Cirillo saluted Simon: "Your Majesty, all the nobles involved have been arrested. What do you think we should do next?"

Looking at the list in his hand, Simon fell silent. The most difficult thing about being a king is how to distinguish between friends and enemies.

Among these lists, many people have made contributions to the Silver Moon Kingdom, and some even have blood or marriage ties with those around him.

Thousands of years of mingling and marriage, and the intertwining of noble forces have never been empty words.

Take the most influential Earl Hamilton in this arrest operation.

For him, the king, this earl had participated in the battle of Yelin River, UU reading www.uukanshu. Com stood up when the Silvermoon Kingdom was most in danger, risked his life to fight and saved the country, he is a meritorious minister.

But in the later unification war, the earl also openly rebelled against the king for the fiefdom.

For Harris, the earl was a somewhat snobbish father-in-law, and for the murdered Xiludi, the earl loved her father the most.

Who would guard against those closest to them?

In addition, the Hamilton family had also married with the royal family and many prominent families in the royal capital, and they were either relatives of this family or that family.

One hair can affect the whole body, using these words to describe the relationship network of nobles is simply too appropriate!

All the other nobles who were arrested were also like this. Either they had made contributions to the Silver Moon Kingdom, or their in-law relationship directly involved courtiers loyal to the royal family, or both.

After cleaning up all the empty nobles and reducing the vassal forces of the noble forces, there are probably more than 800 nobles in the Silver Moon Kingdom.

Among the more than 800 nobles, those who are completely loyal to the royal family or the king can add up to a maximum of 100 families, and there are about 200 families that oppose the new law.

There are more than 500 nobles who are in a wait-and-see state, but they obey the righteousness and obey the king's orders on the surface.

If these nobles involved are executed recklessly, it will only chill the hearts of the courtiers loyal to the royal family, and push the nobles of the neutral faction to the opposition!

People's hearts are the most unpredictable. For the stability of the Silver Moon Kingdom, even he, a king with absolute force, cannot do whatever he wants.

Therefore, even if his teeth itch with hatred, he can only deprive these people of their titles and put them under house arrest for life!

As for why he left the capital at the most critical moment in the early days of the implementation of the new law?

who knows...
