Li Xiang stepped forward slowly, looking up at the man who was smiling and couldn't see a trace of flaws at all. His graying hair was combed into small braids and tied up on the golden crown inlaid with a dragon crystal.

In a few months, the man who had ruled the kingdom of West Asia for more than thirty years would be sixty-six years old, and although he still looked energetic at this moment, everyone in the kingdom knew what price he paid in that war thirty years ago.

Today, he still wears the badge of the Golden Dragon Fighter, but no one knows whether he still has the strength to match, but progress is impossible.

George looked at Li Xiang condescendingly, his eyes were still kind and warm, like an elder looking at a younger person who was promising at home.

"Sure enough, it's a hero out of a teenager. No wonder this guy Rosen is willing not to set foot in the royal city for so many years, and broke this case for you. He slowly sat up straight, took a letter from the side, and said aloud: "Archduke Rosen's proposal is to give Karen a noble title, and I want to hear everyone's opinions on this matter." ”

"That's a good thing!" Archduke Taryn Bullock was the first to stand up, "If I'm not mistaken, the two young masters of Lord Rosen's family also have the title of viscount, and now that Young Master Karen has grown up, even according to Lord Rosen's identity, the title of a viscount is deserved." ”

Natto's Antola nodded, "Lord Taryn has a point, and I agree. ”

Li Xiang's face moved slightly.

He thought that Archduke Rosen brought him to the royal city just to hide people's eyes and ears and buy him and the border more time, but he didn't expect him to ask for a knighthood for himself.

There was a lot of discussion among the people, and they basically agreed with the statement of the Grand Duke Tyranny.

George suddenly waved his hand, quieting the crowd. "If that's all there is, I don't think there's anything wrong with it, but ......"

His gaze fell on Archduke Rosen, who had been silent. "Rosen, or, you can tell yourself about it. ”

Grand Duke Rosen was straightforward. "I hope that Your Majesty will grant the title of Marquis of Karen and rule the North on my behalf. ”

As soon as these words came out, not only the people present, but even Li Xiang frowned.

The existence of the Marquis, second only to the Grand Duke?

Unless it is a person who has made a great contribution to the kingdom, or because of the family inheritance, the heir is given a lower title after the death of the Grand Duke, it is rarely obtained.

"Rosen, you're a little embarrassed, aren't you?" Taryn began.

Rosen said lightly: "Lord Taryn, after so many years, I am also tired, I just hope that before I retreat, I can hand over the things that I have accumulated over the years to a reliable person." If there is no accident, one day in the future, you will be like me, don't fight with an old face, and ask for the glory and wealth of a descendant in front of Your Majesty. ”

"However, it is a bit too much for you to ask for a marquis as soon as you come up. Lord Lawson. "Next to him, Nato Antula said in a gloomy voice.

Everyone's eyes fell on Rosen.

Rosen must know better than anyone else the rules of the kingdom's noble titles, but at this time, what is he thinking when he comes over to ask for an impossible marquis title?

Could it be that he wants to step down?

That's the only possibility.

Sure enough, Grand Duke Rosen suddenly walked out, faced George, and said, "What if I take the initiative to ask Your Majesty to revoke my title of Grand Duke?"

The crowd was in an uproar.

Asking for the title to be revoked? And the most honorable Grand Duke title in the kingdom, is he crazy?

George pinched the beard on his chin, apparently also wondering if Rosen had taken the wrong medicine today. "Are you sure? According to the rules, unless you have done something harmful to the kingdom, once you have the title of nobility, it is for life. ”

He could see that Rosen wasn't joking.

Brock couldn't understand it even more. At this time, the Denister family let go of the position of one of the five dukes, which is equivalent to losing the right to speak in the kingdom, and it is even conceivable that the Denister family, which has no right to speak, may soon be kicked out of the center of the kingdom's power.

Looking at Denister's actions before, there is no sign of giving up.

Rosen bowed and said, "In the past few years since I left the Iron Castle, I have deeply felt that this kingdom does not need me. Don't Your Majesty feel that in fact, when I returned to the north, the Grand Duke's decision-making power no longer meant anything to me. And I also believe that the next generation belongs to young people, and instead of occupying the pit and not, it is better to retreat from the difficulties and leave the position to more capable people. ”

In fact, as early as on the way to bring Li Xiang, Grand Duke Lawson had already thought it through.

The upper limit of Agu and Sputin is obviously there, although they both have some means of survival, but they are different from his views on the kingdom and the north, and it is impossible for him to hand over what he has been running for so many years to two natural nobles.

In Li Xiang's body, he saw a glimmer of the possibility of making his ideas come true.

As for the title of Grand Duke, as he said, it has long been irrelevant to Denister.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Rosen finally threw out the most important purpose of coming today. "In addition to Karen's marquisate title, I have one more request......"

George pinched his beard. "You say ......"

Rosen said loudly: "I want Your Majesty to make a promise to the north, that is, within ten years, as long as the nobles in the West Asian Kingdom are allowed to touch any land in the north, and they are not allowed to set foot in the north. ”

The crowd's brows furrowed.

Until this moment, everyone finally understood what Rosen wanted.

What he wants is not only the status of Marquis Karen, but more importantly, ten years, he dares to exchange the rights of the Grand Duke for these two gifts, which shows that Rosen has absolute confidence in this little son.

Ten years of time!

"Your Majesty, by no means. Taryn Bullock stepped out first, and said anxiously, "Not to mention that there has never been such a precedent in the kingdom, and no nobles are allowed to set foot in the north, does Denister want to be independent from the kingdom?"

This is a heart-wrenching question.

Many people secretly wipe their sweat.

Today's highlight seems to be about to begin.

On the throne, George put his hands on the armrests, his right hand had unconsciously ripped off a small handful of beard, and his eyes were coldly staring at the two former best friends below.

He couldn't have been more aware of the two of them, and he never doubted Archduke Rosen's love and loyalty to the Kingdom of West Asia.

Is the balance that the kingdom barely maintains about to be upset?

The Bullock family, together with His Excellency Rion, secretly supported Carmen to become the crown prince, and he naturally knew it in his heart, and he didn't intervene too much, because in his heart, he had actually decided on this for a long time, and now he was just waiting for a suitable opportunity.

And the Bullock family undoubtedly gave him such an opportunity.

As long as this battle is over, the Bullock family, whose strength has been greatly reduced, must rely on the crown prince to continue to maintain, and Rion naturally has to get on this thief ship.

However, once there is no Dannister's constraint, Brock will not make any effort, and if he goes to the next level, I am afraid that no one will be able to restrain him in the future.

He was silent.
