Tome of Blood

Chapter 310-160- The Duke of Violet

"What are you still doing, didn't you hear what I said?"

Seeing the unmoved Violet Knight, the third prince frowned and his expression turned cold.

However, the next moment, the knights suddenly took a step forward and surrounded him.

The third prince was stunned for a moment.

He suddenly felt vigilant, and snapped:

"What... do you want to do?"

Violet Knight still didn't answer.

They drew out their weapons and surrounded the third prince and others. Some knights took a step forward and directly handed over the soldiers' weapons, while others aimed their weapons at the third prince.

The third prince was immediately angry:

"What are you doing here? Are you rebelling?! Don't you know who I am?"

This time, the Violet Knights finally responded.

The knights moved aside, and a violet knight who looked like the leader came out.

He came in front of the third prince and said calmly:

"Your Highness, of course we know who you are."

"You have seriously violated many important regulations of the "Holy Code" and "Contract of Kingship". According to the provisions of the "Code of Law" and "Treaty", we have the power to temporarily disarm you. Please do not resist."

The third prince was stunned for a moment, and then said angrily:

"You guys are crazy?! I am the Prince of the New Moon! The second heir to the throne! The grandson of Duke Violet!"

"Which family do you belong to? Who gave you the courage to attack me? Is this going to be an enemy of the royal family and the Bois-Lint family?!"

The knight leader glanced at him and said lightly:

"We don't belong to any lower-level noble family, but the knights directly under the duke."

"It was not us who ordered you to be disarmed, but His Excellency the Duke."

"Your Highness, please cooperate a little bit, otherwise, we will have to be rough."

Hearing what the knight leader said, the third prince was stunned for a moment:

"Duke...Duke? Grandpa?"

He widened his eyes and shook his head in disbelief:

"No! This is impossible! How could Grandpa give such an order?!"

"Fake! What you said must be false!"

However, the leader of the knights was not interested in continuing to entangle with the third prince. Instead, he waved his hand and ordered to the other knights:

"His Royal Highness is not emotionally stable, tie him up and send him to the carriage."

Hearing this, the tall and burly extraordinary knight immediately moved into action and walked towards the third prince.

The third prince's expression changed drastically.

He suddenly struggled and said in a panic:

"No! You can't do that!"

"I am the third prince of the new moon! I am the second heir to the throne! You are violating the majesty and authority of the king!"

"I'm going to Lint City! I want to see my grandfather!"

"..."

Looking at the terrified third prince, who was stern and inwardly, the knight leader's eyes flashed with disdain.

"Your Highness, you will have a chance to meet the Duke."

"Of course, we don't know if His Excellency the Duke is willing to see you."

As he spoke, he beckoned the knights to tie the third prince into the carriage.

"no no--!"

"You bastards! I will remember you!"

"When I ascend the throne, I will definitely kill you! Kill you!"

The third prince kept roaring, cursing, and struggling, but in the end he was controlled by the extraordinary knights and "sent" into the carriage.

...

Violet Principality, Lint City.

In the deep and solemn castle, an elderly nobleman wearing a dark purple noble robe was standing in front of the flower bed, watering the flowers tremblingly.

His appearance was roughly similar to Earl Lint's, but he looked older and more majestic, especially those silver-gray eyes, which were cloudy and vicissitudes.

Geoffrey de Boit-Lint.

He is the patriarch of the Bois-Lint family, the current Duke of Violet, and the court advisor of the New Moon Kingdom.

As one of the nine powerful dukes of the New Moon Kingdom, he is also in charge of commanding the most powerful standing army of the New Moon Kingdom—the Second Guards Corps of the New Moon Kingdom.

Of course, this Boulder-Castel war was a civil war among nobles, and the Royal Guards had neither the right nor the ability to dispatch it.

"My lord duke, there is news from the north that His Royal Highness has arrived at the border castle, and the Knights have captured him."

A nobleman with the appearance of a housekeeper came behind Duke Violet, saluted respectfully, and said.

The kettle in the old prince's hand paused slightly.

"Any news from Victor?"

he asked.

The nobleman hesitated for a moment and replied:

"The news came from the rout of the Northland that the Earl should have been captured by the Castel family, and the Duchess of Bold, Eleanor, was also captured with him."

After hearing the nobleman's words, the old duke was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly:

"I see."

"Let the Knights take a good look at Philip, and then prepare an envoy to negotiate with Castel."

The nobleman hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help but said:

"My lord, are you...really planning to use His Royal Highness as a bargaining chip to negotiate with Castel?"

"After all, he is the second heir to the throne and His Majesty's favorite child, and he is also your grandson..."

After hearing the nobleman's words, the old duke turned around slowly.

With a blank expression on his face, he snorted coldly and said meaningfully:

"His Majesty's favorite child?"

"Hmph... Whether he was in the past or not, from the moment he was defeated a week ago, he couldn't be."

"Eleanor of Boulder was captured, and I'm afraid he can't hide his dirty things. Let's throw this hot potato to Castel."

Having said that, the old prince paused again, and sighed:

"Also, go down and get ready. After the negotiation with Castel is over, I will go to the capital to meet His Majesty the King in person..."

...

The recovery of lost ground in the North was much faster than Charlotte had imagined.

As the news of the collapse of the Boulder-Violet coalition army spread, the nobles who surrendered turned their backs one after another, and once again fell into Castel's embrace.

Its speed is so fast that Charlotte has to sigh that the skins of these grasshoppers are really thick enough.

"Whoever wins will they help."

Under the feudal system, these independent noble lords are so realistic.

Charlotte has no time to deal with these repeatedly jumping nobles for the time being.

She just memorized it secretly, and planned to wait until the war was completely over before slowly rectifying.

After the news of the great victory in the Battle of Beigang spread, noble envoys from all over the kingdom continued. An envoy is sent.

Some congratulated, some expressed goodwill to the Castel family, and some extended an olive branch, with a solicitation in their words.

Obviously, the Battle of Beigang, which was more victorious with less, shook the entire kingdom, and everyone knew that the end of the entire war was doomed.

Castelland is destined to part ways with Bold, and it is likely to become the new direct vassal of the New Moon Kingdom, and it is also one of the most powerful forces in the north.

And after receiving another noble envoy from a neighboring territory, Charlotte also got the news:

The envoy team of the Violet Principality's peace talks has arrived in Castel.
