Chapter 597: Rebellion

Soon, gossip spread throughout the kingdom.

"Hey, did you hear that? His Majesty seems to be very dissatisfied with the nobles of the Tskma Kingdom, as if he wants to exile them all! ”

A middle-aged man dressed in sackcloth and wearing sticky fur whispered to an acquaintance next to him that he had been a Dark Dagger man a long time ago, had been lurking for nearly ten years, and had already had a life of his own, of course, these were all disguises for espionage.

"Really? But how come I've never heard of it? His acquaintance said in surprise.

"I swear to the Holy Father that what I say is true!" The middle-aged man said.

"You know, His Majesty has asked all the nobles to give him two of their incomes as taxes!"

The middle-aged man said mysteriously: "Who doesn't know, the nobles in the past never had to pay taxes to anyone, and now the king asks for this, how can those nobles be happy!" ”

"That!" The acquaintance said in horror: "Then it won't make Your Majesty have the idea of exile or killing them, right?" ”

"What do you know?" The middle-aged man denied: "Do you think these nobles are so honest? They have long been secretly conspiring against the legitimate rule of His Majesty the King! ”

"What?" This acquaintance was very shocked, as a city dweller, and also ran some small businesses, his insight was not comparable to that of serfs.

He knew very well what terrible things would happen when war broke out, and the tragedy that had been there would be again, and the stability and prosperity of the kingdom that had been so hard to come on would be interrupted.

"And how do you know?" The acquaintance was very curious about the middle-aged man's intelligence source, so he asked.

"Hey, hey!" The middle-aged man pretended to laugh proudly and said, "You know my brother-in-law's brother, right? He's the captain of the palace guard! ”

"Now this matter has spread all over the palace, and that's how I found out!"

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he pretended to be mysterious and said: "Don't tell others, I told you only because you have a good relationship with me!" If anyone else knew that I wore it, I would be hanged! ”

Although the middle-aged man said this, he wished that he would publicize this matter to everyone.

On the contrary, human nature is so wonderful, if he doesn't say don't spread it, maybe this acquaintance will forget it after a while, but as soon as he said this, it immediately aroused the excitement in the other party's heart.

Although he had already warned himself in his heart at this time that he would never spread the word, he would never be able to keep this secret.

After telling him, the middle-aged man would go and tell the others again, and at the same time, the dark dagger that had been planted all over the kingdom years ago would be activated again.

They spread this rumor, and their identities varied, some were serfs, some were wandering troubadours, some were wandering wounders, and even some wandering knights were pawns buried by the dark dagger.

Under such a lot of publicity, a new rumor appeared in the Kingdom of Lorik, and this rumor spread throughout the Kingdom of Lorik, and even the lowest serfs knew about various versions of this matter.

How could the nobles not know about this, although they were slightly disturbed after learning about these rumors, they still did not fully listen to them, they did not believe that William would really do anything to them.

But later, although William did not express his position directly, he indirectly expressed his dissatisfaction.

This immediately frightened the old nobles, who were at home almost three times a day, fearing that one day William's army would appear in their territory, and then attack their castles, take them out of the territory, and exile them elsewhere, or kill them.

And William didn't react much after knowing the panic of these fates, and as a king, he could make most people panic as long as he had the slightest inclination.

At present, it is not yet the time for William to make a move, after all, they have not been connected in tandem, and there is no move to raise troops.

So William is still holding his arm, but according to the information sent back by the Dark Dagger, some nobles have already contacted in private, and it seems that they are discussing some shady secrets.

However, since the Dark Dagger hadn't fully penetrated them, it was not known what they were talking about.

But William didn't have to guess to know, it was nothing more than how to deal with the current situation, and maybe even they were already discussing how to rebel.

But none of this matters, everything is ready, William has already made all the preparations, just wait for these nobles to rebel, he will send a large army to encircle and suppress them.

William was confident that the army of the nobles had no ability to resist.

During this time, William also spread the news of the canonization of vassals, and the specific date was set for June 15.

Although the nobles knew that they would definitely be canonized, they were still ecstatic when they received this clear news.

The old nobles, on the other hand, felt the urgency of the increase, knowing that William was most likely to announce the news of his exile at the canonization ceremony.

Soon, time passed, and the old nobles finally united, and although only a few did not join them, most of them did so.

This is the news that William got from the Dark Dagger, and after many inquiries, they finally learned the news of their union, and at the same time, every move of their army was also monitored by William.

In the early morning of May 12, 1234 A.D., the Viscount of Fort Lunborn blatantly rebelled in his own territory, and at the same time called on the old nobles of the Tskema Kingdom to respond to his call.

His slogan was to reclaim his rights and put an end to the king's tyranny.

His slogan was instantly echoed by many nobles, who all said that William's policy was too harsh for him to bear.

At the same time, they stated that they would return to their own territory to continue their allegiance to William as long as William announced the abolition of his policies.

Of course, these words are all prevarications, not to mention whether William will abolish these policies, and even if William does abolish, they will think that William is weak and can be bullied and become even worse.

What's more, for the sake of his own majesty, it is absolutely impossible for William to compromise with these rebellious ministers and thieves, not to mention that he has a more powerful army.

In fact, this time the real nobles are also desperate, of course they know that they are not William's opponents, but after all, William cannot have any flaws in a short period of time, so in order not to be exiled, they can only rebel desperately.

If you win, there is no danger, but if you lose, you can face the judgment of fate.

They have done their best, and if it still doesn't work, they can only accept their fate.
