Gargo put his arm around Charles's shoulders in a bold way.

Charles watched his father vomit blood, and he couldn't keep his calm, but he couldn't break away from Gargo's palm. Bare. Humiliate him naked.

In the midst of Gargo's laughter, Luo Lan suddenly spoke: "Gargo, why don't you salute when you see Prince Ben?" Your father is seriously ill and can be excused, but you can't. ”

Gargo's face turned cold, and he said in a deep voice: "Your Royal Highness, I have already saluted you, what do you mean?" ”

"According to the law of the Sea Spirit Kingdom, the little lord must bow whenever he sees the big lord, and I don't give you the privilege of not having to bow, so you should kneel down and salute me just when you enter the door."

This law is actually basically invalid, because it is too complicated, and it is very unnecessary, and there are not so many concerns between lords in general, just bend down and say hello.

But if Luo Lan had to care, then Gargo had to kneel down and salute.

Gargo let go of Charles, and Charles hurriedly went over to pick up Count Abbe and called the maid in.

The maids hurried in, and the room was in a mess.

In such chaos, Gargo stared at Luo Lan coldly, and neither of them gave in the slightest.

Gargo was not a reckless person, and he also saw that Luo Lan was not easy to deal with, so he saluted when he met before. But Luo Lan asked to salute when he asked to meet, which was really a great humiliation to him, and only the most unflattering little lord would get such treatment.

At this moment, some ministers and officers ran outside the door, looking at the strange confrontation in the room and bewildered.

"Humph!"

Eventually, Gargo shook his hand and left, and he did not salute.

Luo Lan looked at Gargo's back and said, "It is a felony for you to ignore the Great Lord, and I have the right to hang you." ”

Gargo paused, then laughed maniacally.

"Interesting, are you pushing me to rebel? Luo Lan, you are indeed different from what I imagined, so I can't intimidate you, but it doesn't mean that I will be afraid of you. I have made it clear that it is impossible for the Southern States to accept your rule, and if you force it, see if my subjects will agree!" ”

Gargo's voice was rough and arrogant, and many of the courtiers also sneered, as long as Gargo made a statement, the courtiers did not hide their contempt for the royal power.

The maids in the room trembled, and they witnessed the most direct confrontation between the big lord and the little lord.

It was a long time before the place calmed down, and Gargo and his party had long since left.

Count Abbe woke up, but he was even weaker, and it was difficult to open his eyes.

The maids were driven away, and Charles pulled Luo Lan over and whispered: "Your Highness, thank you for helping me out of the siege just now, but you are too reckless, we have no room for maneuver." ”

What Charles meant was that Luo Lan was too rigid and forced Gargo directly to the end, and he had no choice now.

"From the beginning we didn't have room to manoeuvre, I was just looking for a reason to clean up Gargo. He wouldn't kneel, and that's why I cleaned him up. Luo Lan smiled indifferently.

Where would he be afraid of Gargo, even Barron was his imaginary enemy, what was a mere Gargo?

The trouble is the 20,000 peasants, and how to get them back is the primary problem.

Charles groaned, Luo Lan's approach seemed reckless, but in fact, it was just tearing his face, and Gargo still didn't dare to kill Luo Lan, which made things clear.

"Has the prince thought of a way?" Charles asked, feeling that Luo Lan was sure that he would let the peasants return, otherwise he would not have forced Gargo so much.

Luo Lan didn't shake his head or nod, he looked at Count Abbe.

Earl Abbe squirmed his lips and stretched out his hand into the air: "Charles......"

Charles hesitated for a moment and took his hand.

"Kid...... I don't have the energy to think about anything more, I ask you...... Will you inherit my title? ”

Count Abbe uttered astonishing words.

According to the hereditary system of titles, the heirs could inherit the titles and territories of their fathers, which was a rather rebellious policy, allowing the power of the nobility to grow forever.

Earl Abbe is now going to hereditary the Southern State to Charles, which has legal effect.

Charles was stunned for a moment and looked back at Luo Lan.

Luo Lan nodded, indicating that he didn't mind, the current southern state still needed a lord.

Seeing Luo Lan nodding, Charles also agreed. Count Abbe exhaled and took out two pieces of parchment from his bosom, both of which were densely written.

"Kid, go and slap the door three times."

Earl Abbe said weakly, and Charles went over and tapped the door three times.

But after a while, a neat maid walked in, and she brought a pen.

Earl Abbe grabbed the pen and trembled to write Charles's name on two pieces of parchment, then handed one to the maid and said, "Go to the Sea Spirit Imperial City at once and hand it over to the king." ”

The maid said nothing, rolled up the parchment, and left.

A piece of parchment remained, which Count Abbe handed to Charles.

After doing this, the old earl had no more strength. He hoarsely said to Roland: "Prince Luo Lan, since Charles trusts you, I also trust you once, hey, there is no way to trust it." ”

"I have paved the way back, Gargo has not been given a hereditary title, if he refuses to give up power, you can ask your father to send troops to help Charles seize power, and your father will help me."

Count Abbe said, gone.

Charles lowered his head and sobbed silently.

Luo Lan didn't bother, he walked out gently.

Outside the castle, there was a lot of noise, and there were people everywhere talking about Luo Lan's arrival.

The elite soldiers on the city wall also talked a lot, and there were even archers who compared bows and arrows, and secretly aimed their arrows at Luo Lan, who had just appeared.

The contempt for royal power is beyond its power to reverse. The southern states, from the lords to the peasants, were reluctant to accept the rule of the king.

In this case, Luo Lan should be angry and angry, but he was very calm, and even found Barrett's guards and walked around the city of Gargo together.

Under the strange onlookers of the people, Luo Lan and the guards drank wine and ate meat in the tavern, laughing loudly.

Luo Lan is natural, but Barrett is not natural, he is too scared.

"Your Highness, let's go back, there is also wine and meat in the hotel."

Luo Lan kicked him under the table, and then talked to himself: "Barrett, I had that dream again last night, I dreamed that a volcano erupted and sprayed a lot of beautiful stones, what do you mean by that?" ”

Not only Barrett, but even the people around looked at Luo Lan, wanting to see what medicine he was selling in his gourd.

Luo Lan said again: "Those stones, they are big and yellow, but they are beautiful, and I don't know what kind of stones they are, I want to put them in the palace to admire." ”

Barrett's face was full of confusion, and some people around him couldn't help but speak: "Are you talking about sulfonous stones?" There are a lot of volcanoes in Nanjun, choking to death, you still have to appreciate it, you are not afraid of being poisoned. ”

"yes, yes, isn't big and yellow a sulfonite? That thing stinks. ”

Hearing the people's discussions, Luo Lan showed a surprised expression: "You have here?" I searched all over the north and couldn't find it. ”

"There is only next to the volcano, and there is talent in the north."

The people are simple after all, and when they talk to Luo Lan, the antagonism has been eliminated somewhat.

Luo Lan slapped her thigh happily: "Great, I'll buy it, ten kilograms of silver coins, how many you want, I always dream of sulfur stones, it must be God's instructions to me!" ”

The people looked at each other, and their eyes clearly said: The eldest prince is really a waste fool.

However, the price of ten kilograms of silver still shocked everyone, even if everyone thought that Luo Lan was talking stupidly.

"Prince of the North, are you serious? Lao Tzu will get you a hundred kilograms, and you will have to give me a gold coin. ”

"Of course it's true, I won't leave the Southern State for the time being, you can go to the Nanjun Volcano to pick sulfonite stones and come here, one hundred kilograms and one gold coin!"

Regardless of whether Prince Luo Lan is a fool or not, the price of one hundred kilograms of gold coins is too tempting.

The city of Gargo was in an uproar, and many herders really rushed to Nanjun after repeated confirmation.

By the evening of the same day, the news had already spread to many places, and the 20,000 people living in Utan Pradesh were densely populated, and the news spread quickly.

Everyone knows that Prince Luo Lan dreamed of a sulfur stone, and he wanted to buy a sulfur stone, saying that it was an instruction from God.

For a while, many farmers were ready to move, thinking of slaughtering Luo Lan with a knife, and they would not make money in vain.

And Gargo's palace was also quite noisy, and the courtiers were very surprised, not knowing why Luo Lan wanted sulfur stones.

Galvao, who was angry during the day, had a cold light in his eyes, he stroked the sword, and said coldly: "Don't sell him sulfonous stones, he won't give him what he wants!" Also, send someone to Nanshan Country, I want more trebuchets and horses, I want to see how this Luo Lan can recover the Southern State! ”

In the face of Gargo's anger, no one dared to refute, only the closest minister hesitated: "New king, I'm afraid there is some trouble in procurement, we are exchanging grain for weapons, but this year's spring harvest has not yet come, and the grain storage cannot be given to Nanshan Kingdom." It's about sulfonite...... If Luo Lan really wants to buy it, we can make a lot of gold coins with sulfur stones, which is not a small business. ”

"That's right, Luo Lan is a waste material madman, he has a dream and wants a sulfur stone, why don't we take the opportunity to kill him? Since you can't kill him, make all his money! ”

The courtiers proposed one after another, and Gargo's eyes flashed, he got up and walked for a while, grabbed the hilt of his sword and shouted: "No, Luo Lan is definitely not a waste maniac, and he can't be taken lightly." To collect grain, every household must pay grain. Remember, it is strictly forbidden for anyone to sell sulfonous stones to Luo Lan, and those who violate the order will be beheaded! ”

The crowd did not dare to say any more.

At this moment an officer of the guard suddenly rushed to him and shouted, "The new king, the Earl has died. ”

The palace was in an uproar, Gargo was stunned for a moment, and then forced a smile and said, "Hey...... Go, go and bury my father, don't tell the people for the time being, now you have to deal with the enemy in the north first. ”
