Heroes of the Invincible Knight

Dragon City

In Rennes' bedroom.

The gray-haired Ren was half-sitting on a large carved wooden bed, which was carved with cloud patterns, but embedded with a few evenly cut rubies.

If Richard sees it, he will definitely feel a strong sense of disobedience, and he will complain about Aragorn's distorted painting style in this world.

However, the people in the palace have long been accustomed to this four-faced decoration and architectural style, and they don't think there is anything wrong with it.

There was a round stool directly opposite to the big bed. I don’t know who it was for.

Anyway, kings generally wouldn't sit on this kind of single stool that didn't even have a place to lean on.

According to the rules of the royal palace, all discussions must be in the main hall, but occasionally there will be a drama in the bedroom.

Occasionally, the king would call some of his soon-to-be-retired courtiers to the bedroom to chat about household chores as a show of favor, which was to give them a bit of bragging rights in the future.

The summoned courtiers would sit on that round stool, facing the king.

But today, there was a young man sitting on the round stool that was supposed to be reserved for veterans.

The young man's face shape was about six to seven points similar to that of Ryan. He was not restrained at all when he sat on the stool, not to mention his legs were crossed, his hands were still clasped on his knees, and his posture was very casual.

"Father, you are so uncomfortable to sit on this stool. Someday I will get you a leather sofa."

"Let me tell you, that sofa is really comfortable. It's stuffed with cotton and cashmere, and it's sewn piece by piece with snow rabbit skin. When you lie down, it's like being wrapped in cotton."

"I don't know how the group of merchants in the North came up with it. My brother-in-law's territory can always produce something new."

"However, I ordered someone to imitate some sea animal skins in the south. Although the skin is not as soft as snow rabbit skin, it is smooth and tough, and it is also moisture-proof. It has robbed merchants in the North of a lot of business."

"Anyway, it's much more comfortable than your wooden stool. After sitting here for a while, my butt hurts."

Using a round stool as an introduction, the young man chattered for a long time.

But King Ren just sat on the bed, staring at him intently.

"Fourth, what are you nervous about?"

With a word from Ren, Prince Paley, who had been talking, was interrupted.

The fourth prince who was still eloquently introducing the sofa was suddenly taken aback, and unconsciously put down his crossed legs, and fell silent all at once.

The room suddenly became eerily quiet.

"Ah"

After a long time, Paley let out a chuckle.

he was really nervous

He sat in front of Ren, deliberately swaying, talking endlessly, seemingly casually.

In fact, it was just covering up the fear in my heart.

At this time, being pointed out by Rennes, he really relaxed a lot.

"It's the first time that the boy launched a coup, and he is indeed a little nervous."

"snort!"

"The blood you killed in the south has flowed into rivers, so why are you nervous here?"

"Ahem!"

When Ren spoke a little excitedly, he coughed a few times, and Ren, who was extremely healthy some time ago, suddenly looked like he was dying.

"Father, don't get excited, I haven't done anything yet..."

"What did you do?"

"Does your father think I have this ability?"

Although the fourth prince Paley is a fine individual and has managed a lot of forces, he has no way to poison Ren who has been living in the palace.

The entire palace was run by Ren like an iron bucket, and it was impossible to poison him.

But even so, Ren's body quickly collapsed as if he was poisoned, and he seemed to be decades old in a month.

The originally full head of black hair turned into silver threads, and a great knight-level master suddenly couldn't even walk.

It's not like any poison can do it at all, it's more like a spell.

Seeing Ren's physical condition, Paley felt a little chilled.

"Do you know that the Charlemagne family will never compromise with the church?"

"Of course I dare not forget."

"Don't dare to forget what?"

"Don't forget that I'm a Charlemagne."

Hearing Paley's answer, Ren's face relaxed a little, and he said slowly:

"Among the brats, you are the most like me."

"The same shameless?"

"hey-hey"

After hearing Paley's words, Ren not only didn't get angry, but he laughed and lay back on the bed.

"Go do what you have to do, I'm tired."

"Father, rest well, the child will leave first!"

After a while, Paley came out of the bedroom.

The soft "creak" of the door opening attracted a lot of attention.

The waiter who was supposed to be guarding outside the bedroom has long since disappeared, replaced by a mass of black soldiers.

Judging by the style of armor on their bodies, it was obviously not the golden armor of the palace guards, but foreign troops from the south.

Several soldiers with the status of military officers went forward, only listening to Paley's calm instructions:

"Your Majesty is dead, and the whole city hangs white banners, calling a group of ministers into the palace to discuss matters."

"Yes, my lord!"

"Withdraw!"

Following Paley's order, the armored soldiers who had originally surrounded the hall quickly withdrew, and the surrounding area became empty.

An old man also hesitated outside the house for a moment before slowly leaving.

Only Paley was left standing in front of the hall in a daze.

The stool in the room is really uncomfortable, I have to replace it with a Beidi sofa...

…

That night, several orders came from the palace:

The "old" King Wren died of a serious illness, and the whole city hung white flags for ten days.

When King Rennes was dying, he appointed the new king as the fourth son of the king, Paley. The witness was the fourth prince himself, and the enthronement ceremony of the new king will be held in the palace city ten days later.

The Praetorian Guards swore allegiance to Paley, and the Army of the South was reorganized into the City Guards on the spot.

The Northern Army is a foreign army, and it is not suitable to be stationed in the capital for a long time. It should be changed immediately.

A few pieces of news, just one out, is enough to cause a huge disturbance.

The king who was in his prime fell ill and died suddenly after being ill for a month. What kind of disease could inexplicably kill a great knight in his prime?

The new king is the fourth prince Paley?

The Iron Guard of the eldest prince is not far away in Krystal City.

Even if he has mastered the Imperial Guards and the Southern Legion brought by the fourth prince himself, he has a numerical advantage over the Iron Guards, and it is difficult for the eldest prince who holds a heavy army to be captured without a fight.

Besides, there are too many doubts about Paley's ascension, and the process of passing the throne is like usurping the throne written on his forehead.

The undisguised approach even made the officials and nobles in the capital feel that maybe this outrageous process of passing the throne is real?

And the blatant plan to expel the Northern Army from the city?

This order is also like being kicked in the head by a donkey. Who gave the fourth prince the courage to provoke those barbarians in the Northland?

Binding all the forces in the capital together is no match for the Northern Army.

The Northland Army is obediently guarding the light gate on the southern city, why are you provoking him?

When these news came out together, the impact became much smaller.

Or because of too much information, everyone has become numb...

The water in the king's capital has already turned into ink, and the minds of any sophisticated politicians and counselors have been muddied by this messy situation.

They had never seen such a complicated and outrageous situation.
