The dungeon is a trading city, and most of the people in it are itinerant merchants, as well as nobles who are responsible for guarding the halflings, and they themselves have industries in the other halflings, so they also have their hearts in each realm.

The royal terrier has no position of its own, and takes the position of a halfling as a standpoint, and the Duke of Pude attaches too much importance to his own rank, and during the period of acting for the imperial privileges, it can be said that it is very unfriendly to the halfling on the other leader.

Instead of taking advantage of the power and buying people's hearts, he offended many people, and without the restraint of royal power, various laws and decrees in the territory could be issued arbitrarily, so many very unreasonable policies were issued.

For example, a high tax was levied, and a large amount of labor was levied on the grounds of the need for defense, so that even the halflings in the rank of the Duchy of Pude were complaining, and they did not like this Duke of Pude.

"During the period of valuing the country, we often scattered soldiers and looted our villages and towns, and now the warehouses are relatively empty, can we slow down the tax revenue?" A few small Hou Guo asked.

"Absolutely." Lockedo doesn't mind much, as long as it is giving, it means surrender, and after the unification of the second half of the people, it will become stronger and stronger, and naturally it will slowly become rich.

"Our borders are still under attack from the gnolls, and we hope that the King of Halflings will send someone to help." There were other princely states who made requests, implying that if they needed to submit, they would naturally fulfill their obligations as kings.

"Don't worry, I will take the expedition in person." Loktor immediately made a promise, and now he has recaptured the dungeon, and with the ability of the Bandless Organization, the original equalization team has been restored, which is enough to protect the safety of the halflings under ordinary threats.

Seeing that Lockedo was so sincere, everyone also expressed their agreement, but they had a lot of complaints about the behavior of the Duchy of Pude during the reign of the king, but naturally everyone would not say anything in person.

But during the break of the feast, someone secretly told some of the crimes of the Duchy of Lockdorpold, and Lockdord laughed it off, gave the whistleblower some reward, and then there was no follow-up.

At this time, his foundation is not stable, and if he rashly takes the initiative against a certain lord, it will inevitably cause the other lords to worry, and then it will inevitably lead to the lords collectively opposing him, in this case, Lockdo's situation will become very dangerous.

Han Sanyuan participated in the banquet publicly, but he used the face pinching system, pretending to be a soldier, and secretly entered the banquet, while Black Rose walked around the celebration by himself, but in order to avoid Wen Ruyan's sudden move, Han Sanyuan hired some secret bodyguards.

"Today we have talked about all the matters, and then the party will come to discuss the last objections to everyone, if it doesn't make sense, then we will sign a new covenant together." Lockedo placed a handful of a code of laws in front of him.

As long as the King of Halflings, the Eight Duchyes of Halflings, and the Twelve Princes of Halflings sign at the same time, then this code will officially begin to be implemented, and the Halfling Empire will be officially re-established.

"I disagree." Although Duke Pude didn't say much when he saw that the atmosphere was wrong, if he didn't speak at this time, he might really have no chance.

"Does Duke Pude have any objections to the Codex?" Lockedo had expected this for a long time, so he seemed very calm.

"First of all, how do you prove that you are a descendant of the royal family?" As soon as Duke Pu's words came out, everyone was stunned.

If Lokdo had not re-ascended the throne as a descendant of the royal family, there would have been no halfling to return to the country, and most importantly, when he had regained the dungeon with him, when he fought against the Black Dragon King, Duke Pu was the first to respond.

If you can be a puppet, you can be a puppet, and when you see that Lockedo is now going to return to power, you directly deny the identity of the other party, which is a bit of a surprise to everyone, and you can understand how you want to fight, but on the surface, this is too explicit.

"I've got the crown here." Lockdo took out the crown and took it off, which is something that has been passed down from the royal family through the ages, "If you don't believe it, you can also take a blood test, plus the recognition of the alliance, I think it is enough to prove my identity." ”

"The crown can make you kill the royal family and rob it, and the royal bloodline can be tested, but they are all halflings, everyone is of the same race, and it is inevitable that there will be people with relatively similar bloodlines, as for the recognition of the alliance, it is entirely possible that you bribed the alliance to engage in layers." The Duke of Pude and the Son of Affection denied all three of Locke's claims.

"So, what is the way for Duke Pude to prove that I am not a descendant of the royal family?" Lockedo asked rhetorically.

"I can't prove that you are an impostor, but you can't prove that you are really a descendant of the royal family, the matter is about the fate of the entire halfling, we need to be cautious, so for the time being, we don't agree to this, and before we can prove that you are a descendant of the royal family, for the time being, there is still my Pude Principality acting as the king." Duke Pude directly argued.

Although it seems to be very reasonable, the actual meaning is to continue to maintain the status quo, or let the Duchy of Pude take power, and put Lockedo aside, and Locke, who has no power, will naturally be easy to deal with for a long time.

This statement seems to be understandable, but there are many lords, some of whom are inclined to this statement, although they don't like Duke Pude's explosion, but they also don't want Lockor to be too powerful.

"In this way, everyone votes, if you want to continue to exercise the king's power, raise your left hand, and raise your right hand if you agree to my accession to the throne, and the cloth raise your hand is regarded as abstention, come on, everyone votes." Loktor threw the problem to the lords.

After weighing the pros and cons, everyone still insisted that Lockedo ascended the throne, and there were a few people who planned to hold the Duke of Lockdor, or the cloth raised their hands, but seeing that most of them were holding Lockdor, in order to avoid unnecessary troubles in the future, they all ostensibly held Lockdor.

"Now that the blow is against me, then at that time I will be in charge of the king's power, and when I am derelict in my duties in the future, how about you come back to take charge of the king's power?" Still, Lockado made a humble gesture.

"You have all been deceived by him, I am the real ruler of the Halfling Empire, and I must not let you people destroy the Halfling Empire." At this time, the Duke of Pude saw that the people had betrayed and left, and decided to take the risk.

A short knife commonly used by halflings was pulled out, and a sword wave was sent out and immediately slashed towards Lockdo, but the surrounding area was naturally protected by the mage, and a shield was released, which was blocked by this sword wave.

However, Lockkdo still heard about it, and the combat effectiveness was not enough, and the surrounding armor soldiers hurried to protect Lockedo, but helplessly, these people were just miscellaneous soldiers, and their natural combat strength was not as good as that of the entire principality, and even the dukes whose materials for other vassals to pay tribute were used to strengthen them.
