The King of Knights in a Different World

As the new king, he represents the new regime, and being by his side certainly represents the greatest opportunity. But at the same time, it also means a huge risk, and Morgan's identity is doomed that once she is involved, she will only end in failure.

Of course, it's okay if she's talented. But sadly, she doesn't have that talent. This can be seen from the previous British turmoil.

If Lucifer stood in her position, no matter whether he got Wang Jian's approval or not, Lucifer would directly stabilize the situation first, and then lead the government as regent until a new king was elected.

As long as domestic conflicts can be resolved and foreign enemies defeated at the same time, then a new king will appear. If you want to be a virtuous minister, you can return the power to the king. If you don't want to, you can also choose to directly take away the power of the king. There are even many other ways.

But unfortunately, those princesses didn't do anything, and even the four grand dukes didn't approve of her very much. With these examples, Lucifer didn't think it was a good thing to let her join them.

Listening to Lucifer's narration, Semiramis also made a decision in her heart, and she said the worst-case solution that she had thought of before.

"Since this is the case, I suggest that the king execute her for the crime of treason. Kill all possible rebellions during the enlightenment period. Or simply let me do it. I can make our princess die in a sad accident." Semiramis now displayed a cruelty to rival her beauty.

The princess of the old royal family is definitely a huge hidden danger to the new king, and the safest way to not leave hidden dangers is to make that princess disappear completely. The Duke of Poison now uncovers the poisonous sting from her beautiful face. *

no.52 I object (asking for votes, asking for flowers)

As the Grand Duke of the West, her words are equivalent to rebellion. But this also proves that what she wants to protect is this country, not the so-called royal family. Who the king is is not the most critical thing to her, the key is whether the king can lead the country to prosperity.

For this reason, even if the matter is revealed, she is willing to bear the notoriety of killing the master.

Lucifer was silent at this moment, he looked at Semiramis calmly, he could be sure that what she said was not a joke. For a moment, he even felt that the woman in front of him was a little dangerous, but then he thought, if it is used properly, it may be safer.

It's just that your strength is a bit heartbreaking to shoulder the darkness of this country alone.

Lucifer hasn't said anything yet, but Liya behind him has already expressed strong opposition.

"Absolutely not!"

Whether as an upright knight or as a member of the royal family, she could not agree with such a decision.

"Leah, don't worry! How about trusting me more?" Lucifer smiled.

His silence just now was probably taken by the lovely Knight Ji as she was thinking about the feasibility of this proposal.

"I'm sorry, please forgive my sin just now, king!"

"No! Sins are sins. I will save your crimes to be executed at night. Now let's return to the issue at hand. As I said just now, I have promised St. George to treat the royal family well. Therefore, this proposal is also rejected. "

"My lord, being too kind is sometimes a virtue, but it is not a virtue." Semiramis changed his tone.

What this country needs is not a benevolent holy king, who cannot save this country. What it needs is a decisive king who combines the eight virtues of knights with the seven original sins of demons and will not be affected by them.

"Benevolence. Mira, do you think I am the kind of king whose decision is influenced by kindness?"

kindness! I may have a heart of kindness in my heart, but that also depends on the target. Not everyone is entitled to their own pity, nor will they show their pity all the time.

"No. So..."

At this point in the conversation, Semiramis thought of another possibility.

"That's right! Regarding the old nobles, I have a better solution. As for Morgan, I have asked St. George to show her my attitude."

"Won't St. George become a villain then?"

"Since he wants to preserve the former royal family, this is the price he has to pay. Being misunderstood as a villain may even damage his reputation. In fact, I also want to know how far he can go to fulfill the vows in his heart."

If St. George can't persuade Morgan, and Morgan ends up going against him and making the situation worse, then he can only kill her. But at least before that, I had asked St. George to give her a chance to do what she could.

Semiramis is also much more relaxed, since the king has made a decision based on this, she will not interfere. She will put forward her own suggestion, as to whether Wang accepts it, that has nothing to do with her.

"I hope so. After listening to you, I suddenly thought of a question that has been bothering me before."

"I'm starting to be a little curious about what kind of problem can make wisdom as troubled as you are."

"It's that you just issued a lot of decrees. I don't think there are any others, but one of the key ones is to distribute the nobles' domains equally to all sons, and the official heirs only have a little preferential treatment. I am very happy about this. Confuse."

"Beautiful! Interesting! As expected of you, you immediately discovered the problem. A friendly reminder, it hides the key to solving the problem of the old nobles."

"Deal with the old nobles... So that's the case. It seems that you still have a backhand."

"Have you figured it out, my Prime Minister." Speaking of this, Lucifer's smile was mixed with a hint of pleasure and cunning.

That wasn't some impenetrable ruse. As long as you are a wise person, you will understand if you think about it. But after that, seeing the problem and solving the problem are two different things.

As for Semiramis, of course she figured it out.

"I figured it out, but it's useless to figure it out. This is a decree that directly tells us there is a problem, but we haven't rejected it. If it's a conspiracy, your plan will be aborted the moment it's revealed, but it's not, even if you tell us If you don’t get those people your purpose, they can’t do much.”

The king declared that all the sons of the nobles had the right to inherit the territory, which was equivalent to dividing the nobles from within. It may not be obvious in a short period of time, but by the time the problem is discovered, these divided nobles have long lost the ability to gather against the central government.

After all, it is far more difficult for thirty people to discuss rebellion than three people to discuss rebellion.

It is often said that there is great power in numbers, but when there are more people, their wisdom will be lowered, making them a mob.

"I like to call it a conspiracy." Lucifer said the word.

"Very good! I found that we are getting more and more harmonious. The king needs to maintain his glorious image, and it is best not to use conspiracy. The part of the conspiracy is left to me, and you have been using your Yang conspiracy as it is now. "

"Have you really decided, Mira?" Hearing this, Lucifer suddenly felt a little sorry for the woman in front of him.

"Huh! Did I hear something wrong? Is the king concerned about me?" Semiramis's smile suddenly became very beautiful, and even Leah felt a little bit moved.

"Well, you heard me right, I just care about you. If you do this, you will undoubtedly absorb all the shadows on my body, and the price of my brilliance is your sinking. People who face the abyss, they themselves will also suffer from the abyss." affected."

The king is the son of glory, and the prime minister took the initiative to take the blame. In this way, everyone will think that the king is very kind and all the evil deeds are on the prime minister. Such a combination can give full play to the strongest strength of the king and the prime minister, but at the same time it also requires the absolute trust of the king and the prime minister.

At this moment, the two of them entrusted their trust to each other as if they were connected.

Lucifer's words made Semiramis feel a warm current in his heart. She is ready to go to hell for this country. There would be no place for her in heaven anyway, she had thought, but now, at least someone could walk with her, if only for a moment.

"Don't worry! I'm just enjoying the fun of intrigue, and I'm not really as dark as you think. So, I will leave it to me to play a black face in the future. Believe me, I am very good at this kind of thing." At this time , her tone softened.

"Really! Then please, my Prime Minister."

Semiramis left here with a satisfied smile. Although today's meeting did not achieve her original goal, it unexpectedly brought more benefits than expected. She looked up at the sky, feeling the moonlight was so dazzling for the first time.

After Semiramis left, the hall returned to calm. After hearing the words just now, the knight Ji behind Lucifer hesitated.

"King!" she said softly.

This is probably her first official contact with the so-called shady. It is still the shady scene between the king and the prime minister.

"A king's body is not only radiant, but also dark. Walking in the dark, but he has light in his heart; he is in the light, but always remembers the darkness. Walking between light and darkness, keep his own heart, use light and darkness, Merging into light and darkness, until finally surpassing light and darkness, this is the king." Lucifer did not defend himself, nor did he say any ambiguous words such as that he would use less of this method. He just said the kingly way he was going.

"You know, Leah, I sincerely hope that all the people in this country can maintain the virtues of knights like you. In this way, even if the darkness of the whole country is concentrated on me, I will become the only villain in this country, I also think that my efforts are not for nothing."

Yes. Light and darkness always coexist. If the whole country is as bright as the sun, then the only person who bears the darkness of this country is the king, and he can only be the king.

"No matter when and where, your sword will always be my direction." Leah took the initiative to hug Lucifer tightly for the first time in public.

She didn't say big things like taking responsibility together, she knew that she couldn't do it, and the only thing she could do was stay by his side as a sword, if he wanted to use it.

"Well, no matter how time changes, you will always be my scabbard." Lucifer gently held her hand.

All in silence. *

no.53 a year

With the start of Lucifer's reform, a year has passed. During this year, Lucifer absorbed a large number of talents from the common people and the new aristocracy, and let them take up positions in his territory in the name of righteousness. Because of their own lives, these people were originally not liked by others, but now they can become the direct subordinates of the king, which naturally comes from their loyalty to the king.

However, for the time being, Lucifer did not assign them too important positions, but mostly based on the basics. This also made those original old aristocrats let go of their guard. During this period, some nobles died, and Lucifer distributed their domains to their children according to the new law.

After the first, there is the second. In this way, no one will suspect that the new king is just talking. Coupled with the economic construction that Lucifer carried out with the war compensation he received, the territory belonging to the royal family gradually became more active.

Lucifer also began to try to let his subordinates practice with this territory as a model, so as to fill in the large power vacancies that will appear when the power is fully centralized later. The current Britain can't help but remind Lucifer of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period in his memory.

Private territory, a country within a country. After seeing the sexuality of those old nobles, Lucifer no longer wanted to continue talking with them.

Lucifer also reopened the Royal Military Academy which had previously closed down due to lack of funds.

After a year of preparation, the place finally has the appearance of a college. But Lucifer didn't intend to just use it as a military academy, but planned to build a comprehensive academy.

At present, after handing over the affairs to his clerk, Lucifer and his knight Ji are preparing to go to the Royal School for the most important task today, which is to recruit teachers for this school. Of course, not the military aspect, but other aspects.

After coming to a huge classroom, Lucifer sat at the front desk. In front of him was a classroom that looked like a university in his memory. The rows of seats in front were filled with people who had come to apply this time, and the corridors outside the classroom were also under strict martial law by knights.

After reading these resumes, Lucifer asked them questions one by one, and the directions of the questions were all the directions that they were good at in their resumes. Then, many people just left the classroom with shamed faces amidst Wang's question.

After a long time, in the end there were only two people with real talents left in this classroom, instead of fooling around like before. Of course, this was within Lucifer's expectation, it would be good to find two in the interview on the first day.

He didn't expect those people to be all talents, and if he could find one out of ten, it would be regarded as earning money.

However, these two seem familiar!

"Hornheim? Judging from your resume, what you are good at is more like alchemy than magic." Thinking about it, Lucifer asked.

"If you say I'm good at it, what I'm good at is actually the application of the five elements." With that said, Hohenheim showed his manipulation of the elements.

Five small orbs of different colors circled the dagger in his hand like satellites.

"On the basis of the four elements, put forward the fifth element, that is, the overhead element ether. It turns out to be a master! As far as what you just said, it is not a problem to be the teacher of this college." During the speech, Lucy Phil also showed his hand. A group of crystal-like crystals rose from his hands.

Crystallization spell, the magic researched by White Dragon Sith. Later, it was inherited by the big hat Logan and placed in the big library.

"This is!"

"The magic researched by a scaleless white dragon in order to obtain dragon scales, I habitually call it the crystallization spell."

As soon as Lucifer finished speaking, the lady next to him impatiently leaned over.

"Wow! Awesome! So much fun! This is the type of magic I've never seen before, and coming to this country is the best decision I've ever made. Hello, King of Knights, I'm Leonardo da Vinci .He is von Hohenheim Paracelsus." The woman was happily introducing the two of them to Lucifer.

"The legendary Almighty and the creator of the Philosopher's Stone, it's a pleasure to meet you. I'll just cut to the chase. I want to invite you to join the magic department of this academy. Of course, there is no official magic department under the magic department. You are the tutors, and the names of these subjects can be decided by you." Lucifer directly explained his thoughts.

The two in front of me have undoubtedly passed the interview. Since they came here, it proved that they are also interested in the work here, so there is no need to say too many polite words.

"No problem. However, in addition to the normal salary, we are actually more interested in the magic you just used."

"The highest level of the Wangli Library, where I used to write my research experience. This is the key!"

Lucifer took out two official employment documents and put a key on them.

Da Vinci and Da Vinci looked at each other, and they were not polite.

"make a deal!"

"You two are welcome to join."

After continuing to deal with some academy affairs, Lucifer returned to the palace. He asked Artoria to ask the kitchen to make some desserts, while he was about to take a break.

Due to the incident of poisoning Lucifer before, Artoria is now paying special attention to Lucifer's diet. The previous incident was discovered by Lucifer in advance, and it did not cause any problems. It even brought out a bunch of nobles who had private transactions with France. Naturally, there is no need to say much about the fate of these people.

The current Praetorian Guard has completely changed its blood. And thanks to Artoria's outstanding performance this year, she was called the 'King's Shield' by outsiders. Although she herself may prefer the title of 'King's Sword'.

The waiting time didn't last long, or it could be said that it was still time for Lucifer to relax. Semiramis came here with a bunch of documents, and she put these things that needed to be decided into Lucifer's hands.

"This is a decision to be made today."

"That's all? Just find a reliable person to deliver this kind of thing. It's not like your style to deliver the documents in person." Lucifer said jokingly while browsing the paper documents in his hand. .

Over the past year, although the cooperation between the two of them could not be said to be perfect, at least they were intimate. Lucifer didn't even tell Arturia about many things on the dark side, but he discussed with Semiramis and asked her to carry out them.

If the Kingdom of Glory that they were looking forward to together really came, they might become the country's only evil, or their accomplices.

"The king knows me very well. In addition to these written documents, there are also verbal communication from the old aristocratic faction. They asked me frequently before and wanted me to help propose a bill. As for the content of the bill, it is to restore the war tax .”

Seeing no one, Semiramis directly picked up the black tea in Lucifer's hand and drank it. The moment the tea entered her mouth, she frowned. The tea here was obviously not Lucy's work, she put down the cup boredly, and had no intention of continuing to drink. *

no.54 You are looking for your own death (asking for tickets, asking for flowers)

The so-called war tax is a law left by the former king. The content of this law is actually very simple. That is, once the country goes to war, everyone is obliged to pay taxes and prepare for the war.

On the surface, it seems to be a law that is beneficial to war, but in fact it has long been abused. This decree existed until a year ago, and was later abolished by Lucifer.

"Restore the war tax. Here again! How many times has this happened, they don't seem to be well behaved at all, or they don't have brains at all, so they can't understand what I said?" Lucifer put down his hands The document that has already been read, the voice is full of sarcasm.

In fact, before that, those people had proposed many times to restore the war tax, but they were all rejected by Lucifer. The righteousness that Lucifer said made them completely unable to find any reason to refute.

Since the king can't say anything, he can only talk to the prime minister. The prime minister is also a great nobleman, and can also benefit from the war tax. In the eyes of the old nobles, their interests are the same. However, this is only in their opinion.

"I don't think that's the case, it's just because they are too greedy. Before that, the war tax was a major source of income for them. As long as the money was tight, they would start a war immediately. Of course, most of the time it was a war with other territories in the country."

"War with other territories? It's a show. Will those miser who are afraid of death really go to war? At most, they will collude with each other, show it to the common people, and then use it to extract money."

Lucifer couldn't help but think of a year ago. At that time, because of the victory in the war, I got a sum of compensation. After these people heard the news, they immediately ran over and told themselves that that so-and-so was a knight of their own family, saying that since he joined the king's command, they would not will prevent them, and will not allow them to return.
