Chapter 461: Ready to Move
"How long has it been since Grand Duke Muria left?"
"Sir, it's been nearly two years. ”
"Two years, unconsciously it's been so long. The old man with an old face but bright eyes and a look of good spirit showed a contemplative look on his face, "After enduring it for so long, you can try it, and let the queen know that we are not lambs to the slaughter, but the cornerstone of the kingdom, and it is almost time to take back the rights that belong to us." ”
"Need to inform the other nobles?"
"Well, tell them that you can choose a few vassals to test it, but you can't let me do it alone. ”
"Understood. ”
...... In the sixth year of Queen Remilia's accession to the throne, eight nobles signed a petition requesting the repeal of the new tax law issued by Muria and the restoration of the legislative power of the nobles, on the grounds that these were not good for the country.
Such a request was naturally rejected by Queen Remilia without hesitation, and she could not repeal any of the decrees established by Muria, but would do her best to maintain all this.
The eight nobles, under the orders of the instigators behind them, did not give up, but contacted more nobles to continue to petition the queen, demanding that the queen restore the rights of the nobles and repeal some laws that hindered the development of the Rockman Kingdom, or hindered the development of the nobles.
These eight nobles desperately fought for the interests of the aristocratic group in front of the "brutal" queen, and won a lot of support and favor from the nobles, making their petition more and more powerful.
But Queen Remilia once again refused mercilessly, and as a "little" girl in her early twenties, her patience was exhausted by the death of these nobles, and she directly arrested the eight nobles for treason, and ordered them to be executed.
Not only that, but the seemingly young queen also ordered that all the noble titles involved in the petition be cut down by one rank, and that some fiefs be withdrawn, leaving only the ones equal to their titles.
Such a cruel punishment decision caused an uproar among the noble groups of the Rockman Kingdom, and filled the hearts of many human nobles with resentment, and each of them was indignant.
Because in this order, many nobles were directly cut into commoners, and they were directly knocked out of the aristocratic circle, and in terms of status and status, there is no difference between them and those lowly commoners.
Just when the nobles were boiling over, an exciting news spread from the royal city, on the day when the eight nobles who took the lead in the petition were about to be executed, an unknown soul-level powerhouse came to the rescue, and the legend belonging to the royal family intercepted it, but it was not stopped.
This news directly caused a sensation across the country, it was too shocking, and there were too many meanings in it. The person the queen wanted to kill was actually saved, and the legendary shot was not intercepted, which is very exciting.
Only a legend can deal with a legend, but it is a well-known thing, eight nobles were rescued, which means that there is a legendary duke who is also dissatisfied with the queen's order, so he intervenes to show resistance.
Such a powerful news made many nobles who were dissatisfied with Queen Remilia and wanted to regain their rights high-spirited and ready to move, and under the condition of ensuring the safety of their lives, many people dared to do many things.
As a result, the third aristocratic petition was even more vigorous, and under the impetus of many people with intriguing intentions, hundreds of nobles once again began to submit petitions to Queen Remilia, asking for the return of the nobles' rights.
This time, Queen Remilia didn't have any nonsense, and sent the Knights of Formation, as well as the metal dragon nobles she canonized, to arrest people directly according to the petition, and kill the righteous law on the spot, without the slightest intention of backing down, and her attitude was extremely tough and decisive.
Remilia, who has received the ideological education of the tyrant of the golden dragon lady Beatrice, and Muria's words and deeds, knows that no matter how arrogant the nobles are, how many forces support and participate in it. I must not give in half a step.
The aristocracy is a creature that gains the slightest bit of inadequacy, and when they give in, they feel that they can get more, become more greedy and arrogant, and their royal authority will be weakened, and people will lose their sense of awe, and all kinds of things will be disgusted by Remilia.
Thus, the massacre that shocked the Rockman Kingdom occurred, hundreds of nobles were beheaded in their castle estates, and dozens of noble badges were erased, representing the demise of those noble inheritances.
The brutality of slaughtering hundreds of nobles at once reminded them of the horrors they had brought to them during the reign of Muria.
But at that time, the Grand Duke of Muria had ten ancient dragons to suppress everything, and what kind of courage did this queen have to do such an outrageous thing, the Rockman Kingdom fell into an eerie silence for a while, and countless nobles entered a wait-and-see state.
However, after observing for several months, the eyes of those nobles scattered in the royal capital did not find the formidable figure of the young man with black hair and golden eyes.
"That tyrant didn't show up? Why did that little girl dare to kill so many nobles, why did she? Just rely on the five legends of the royal family?"
"Isn't five legends enough?, and according to some secret rumors, some of the ten ancient dragons invited by the tyrant have not left, and are still staying in the royal capital of Scarlet, maybe this is the confidence of our queen!"
"It's just nonsense, we've all seen it with our own eyes, the ten ancient dragons have already left, and even if they haven't left, what will that little girl do to raise ancient dragons? The royal treasury has been emptied by that tyrant. ”
"That's right, the royal family doesn't have any money now, hehe, that little girl won't start such a crazy massacre because of lack of money!"
"It's really possible, there are a lot of legions that the royal family needs to support, especially the demon hunting group. ”
"That legion," the nobles present all looked jealous, "doesn't it mean that after the end of the demon plague, it has been disbanded? ”
"Hmph, you've recruited just some eliminated garbage, the real elite of the demon hunting group, I heard that some of them left with the tyrant and went overseas, and some stayed in the royal capital to form a secret royal guard. ”
"Why don't I know what you heard from there?"
"This is what my shadow guard probed out, of course you don't know. ”
"Hey, this is still really tricky!" Thinking of the terrifying combat power displayed by the two guys who claimed to be the elite of the Demon Hunting Regiment, the face of the nobleman who appeared to be a little fat turned a little blue.
While these nobles were still silent, waiting for something, new news came from the royal capital again, and Queen Remilia issued a new decree again, the Decree of Grace.
