Marquis Rebuen, one of the most powerful nobles in the Kingdom of Yestije.

He is now also the largest royal faction in the kingdom, and his first priority is to ensure the interests of the royal family. Other nobles privately call him "the king's lackey."

However, the new king regarded Rebuen Hou as a friend. If it were not for Rebuen Hou's aristocratic power, he, the newly ascended king, would have had to spend a lot of time to control the country.

But what the new king didn't expect was that the reason why those nobles resisted so weakly was entirely due to the Golden Princess's sacrifice to the Demon King.

In addition to Princess Lana and Kuang San, the dead nobles also knew that the new king thought it was his bastard spirit that shocked everyone...

The Kingdom of Li Yestije is located on one side of the sea, bordering the Council State, the Holy Kingdom, the Silian Theocracy, and the Bahas Empire. Apart from minor frictions with the empire every year, it is quite pleasant to get along with other countries, and trade is smooth.

, rich in seafood and extremely advantageous geographical location.

Even if the nobles increase taxes, people can still have enough to eat.

Under the "wise leadership" of the new king, all the nobles who collected taxes privately were destroyed, and even the famous families did not dare to extend too much. Since then, the kingdom has been prosperous.

With the support of the state, the new king even thought about updating the army's equipment.

Inside the palace.

The new king is a fat and ugly dwarf with some freckles on his face. If it were not for the royal uniform, he would not look like the leader of a country in terms of temperament.

It's strange to say that the old king should have been pretty good-looking when he was young, he didn't bring down the empire, and the princesses and queens were definitely not ugly, but...how did he give birth to three weirdos?

Forget about the Golden Princess. She is famous at home and abroad for her wisdom and beauty, and she is considered to have excellent genes. Unfortunately, she is a woman. The kingdom has never had a model starting with a queen, so it is easy for people to subconsciously ignore her.

The eldest prince is tall and strong, and seems to be a good material for martial arts training. However, he is a waste. He grew up in a pampered environment for a long time. He is self-centered and goes his own way. He speaks without thinking and does things without considering the consequences. If

Without the help of the shrewd old father-in-law, the second prince would have been played to the point of being nothing more than a scumbag.

As for the second prince... As the head of a country, his power and strategizing skills are quite good, but his appearance... is really a bit disappointing to the people of the country.

At this time, the second king, no, the new king was sitting on the throne like a pig, watching the leaving nobles without saying a word.

Beside him stood his confidant Reinbuhou.

The king looked up at the wall, where there was a relatively simple map.

"Is the news from the elves accurate?"

Lord Rennbu lowered his head slightly and said: "Yes, Your Majesty. Since the new Elf King took office in the elf country, the royal power has been highly concentrated and the speed of development has made the Silian Theocracy fearful. Legend... that

The elves repelled the attack of the Slian Theocracy."

"Also... according to legend, the Elf King has strength comparable to that of the gods."

"Gods..." The king was silent after hearing this.

If it were before, he would definitely laugh at it, but after experiencing the incident in the fortress city of E-Rantel, he knew that the world was broader than he imagined.

"Those elves have indeed mastered the method of quickly refining steel?"

"Yes, Your Majesty. There are a large number of magic chanters among the elves who are proficient in the water system. They search for mineral veins in the sea and then transport them back to the country for refining, and..."

"And what?"

"I heard they found the long-lost Mother Tree of Life."

The new king took a breath. Being able to use a magic chanter to mine mines was a luxury enough. And the Mother Tree of Life, was it really as magical as recorded in ancient books?

Like a nouveau riche, he tapped the gold handrail with his fingers covered with various gemstone rings.

"Find a way to buy fine steel from the Elf Kingdom. Money is not a problem. Transportation can be by sea. Pass through the Holy Kingdom Canyon and discuss it with the Holy Kingdom when the time comes."

Lord Rennbu hesitated for a moment, "Your Majesty, haven't you heard that there is civil strife in the Holy Kingdom?"

The king frowned and waved his hand: "Send someone to take care of this first. At worst, we will sneak across the strait, which will save a lot of tolls."

"Your Majesty is wise." Reinbuhou flattered him, and seemed to feel that the time had come, so he took out a note from his trouser pocket.

"Your Majesty, the kingdom has been peaceful in recent days. Should you consider the issue of heirs?"

The king frowned, his whole fat face wrinkled together, making his originally small eyes even smaller.

"Want to help me choose a concubine? Or do you want to marry a daughter from a famous family?"

Marquis Rennbu belonged to the Royal Faction, but there were also many nobles in the Royal Faction. There were also some hostile nobles who, in order to protect themselves, were eager to send their daughters over to the new kingdom to serve as concubines.

If a boy and a half girl were born, they wouldn't have to live in fear all day long.

"Your Majesty, this is the list. If you are not satisfied, you can choose others."

Lord Rennbu presented the paper with both hands. The new king glanced at it and found that he knew most of the famous ladies on the list.

The king rubbed his eyebrows with a headache, "We will discuss this later. Let me go for a walk with you."

...

Garden, pavilion, castle, corridor...

When the newly appointed king saw this, he couldn't help but feel emotional.

A long time ago, when he was a child...

"Your Majesty, is it time for lunch soon?"

"Huh?" The former second prince, who had a bulging belly and looked like an old king, was stunned for a moment, then looked at the unique building in the distance: "Go to the library for a walk and then go back."

Reinbuhou naturally had nothing to say. The person in front of him could be said to be the most noble person in the kingdom. Isn't it just his decision to have a meal?

The straight tower-style building was quite majestic in this era. Although it did not reach straight into the sky, it was still considered an advanced design in terms of shape.

In the Wangli Library, there was still the combination of old John and the young boy, who welcomed the new king.

Before that, Old John had moved the old King's books to the second floor, and moved all the books originally read by His Highness the Prince to the first floor.

Old John and Reinbuhou were waiting on the side, and the king nodded from time to time.

The most eye-catching thing about this building is of course the oval glass at the top.

The king glanced up. On the top floor, there seemed to be slender legs passing through the railings. They were not wearing shoes or socks, leaving their delicate white feet hanging there casually.

It seemed that the sun was shining on his eyes, or that he felt dazzled. The new king rubbed his eyes and looked up again.

Old John's expression changed and he winked at the young man hurriedly.

This scene was seen by the new king.

He narrowed his already small eyes, which looked like two slits cut by a knife in a mass of fat.

Regardless of anything else, just lift your feet and step on the stairs.
