The knights of Fort Frecy set out again, this time to the royal city, and Anka, who had a letter written by the elven king himself, and Milton, who was the messenger of the dwarven leader, were already waiting for Christian near the royal city, representing the attitude of the allies.

The Knights of Sorenburg led by Leopold joined Christian halfway through, along with Prince Edward and the Knights of Burt Castle. Duke Bert, like the Duke of Sorenberg, had a very clear position and supported Christian's immediate coronation.

However, that's all Christian can muster. Duke Adelin, who has an interesting personality, chose to stand by and watch, not only that, but he also ordered the small lords around him not to interfere in the battle for royal power and not to help Prince Christian. Of course, a stricter order is that if anyone dares to get involved with Archduke Ferdinand, it is tantamount to making enemies of him, Duke Adelin.

"I can't tolerate traitors!" The haughty Duke put it this way: "But it is his duty to leave these matters to the heir of the kingdom himself." ”

Duke Adelin's attitude was not surprising, but it was surprising that Archduke Lancelot chose to sit idly by.

"A two-faced villain!" Leopold gritted his teeth in hatred: "It was you who risked your life to slay dragons in his territory, otherwise how could he have survived to this day?" It was we who helped him clear his reputation for being in the company of demons, and that's how he treated his benefactor?! ”

"The attitude of the queen family is understandable." Christian calmly replied, "They want someone to stand up and lead the Order against the demons, but they are not willing to give up their power. The demon has gone back, and it is actually me who threatens the king's rule right now! I'm the heir of half lowly blood! In this case, I am not surprised that they chose to cooperate with Ferdinand, after all, Ferdinand has now lost all the bargaining chips to overthrow the royal power, and he can only stay in the position of regent at best. ”

"They didn't dare choose to work with Ferdinand." Prince Edward sneered: "The news of Ferdinand's cooperation with demons has spread throughout the kingdom, and Lily wrote Ferdinand's story into a magical message after you left, and she used a wide enchantment to spread to all adventurers' taverns in the Bloodleaf Kingdom. ”

"What a genius!" Leopold smiled: "Now it's up to Ferdinand to deceive the public." ”

"Don't worry, even if we don't have many people, the advantage is obvious." Prince Edward said confidently: "The position of the church is very clear, the crown prince is the only paladin today, the guardian of the holy sword of Aris, the leader of the demon war, and the person who can really inherit Alfred the Great and continue to protect the kingdom, you have a very high prestige among the people and knights." ”

"Prestige among the people and knights is of little use to Chris," Leopold took over with a wicked smile, "Chris just wants to have a good image in your little Lily's heart." ”

Prince Edward was silent for a second before replying, "As the next Duke of Bert, of course I want the queen to come from my family, but as an elder, I want Lily to choose her husband according to her own heart. You know, she's a very lively alchemist, and I'm not sure if she really likes court life. ”

"I know I'm selfish," Christian said, looking at Prince Edward, in a sincere and urgent tone, "but I still hope that Lily will choose me as her husband." I can assure you, to Duke Bert and Earl Bert, that I will give Lily the utmost freedom to live the life she wants. As long as she wants, she can do anything, she can live in the palace, I can do it, really! ”

"I believe in your sincerity." Prince Edward smiled at Christian, "But these words are useless to me. As I said, I want her to be free to choose her husband. ”

Christian nodded and stopped talking. Prince Edward was right, the most important thing he should ask was Lily's opinion, what kind of life she wanted. And the most important thing he should do now is to fight for the throne as soon as Lily wants, so that he can provide the life Lily wants.

Outside the royal city, Christian joined up with Anka and Milton, and he camped on the plain not far from the royal city, and sent messengers to the city to deliver two letters, one of his own declaration of war to Archduke Ferdinand, and the other to Adrian III, Duke Frecy.

After receiving the declaration of war, the self-proclaimed regent Archduke Ferdinand did not panic, believing that he still had a chance of victory. And what about the crown prince having the support of the Duke of Bert and the Duke of Sorenberg? He is still the strongest lord in the entire Blood Leaf Kingdom, and the knights in his hands are strong and strong.

And Christian besieged the royal city with the Knights, this is a rebellion! In the name of the regent, he could have mobilized the royal city guards to participate in the suppression of the rebellion.

Archduke Ferdinand is full of confidence, but there is one person who is not as optimistic as him, and that is the beautiful Princess Marianne, the jewel of Archduke Ferdinand's palm.

Princess Marianne knew very well that her father had failed. News of a deal with the devil has leaked, and her father is a despicable traitor and power-hungry villain in the eyes of the knights of the kingdom. Although their army seems to be quite numerous, most of the knights, whether it is their Knights of the Guards or the Guardians of the Royal City, are actually on the side of the crown prince in private, and they are just waiting for an opportunity to rebel.

Princess Marianne did not want to sit still, she did not want to be tried at the stake with her father as a traitor and accomplice to the devil. If she drew a line with her father now, she thought, maybe she would not only be able to keep her title and territory, but also achieve her original purpose.

On the night that the declaration of war was sent to the royal city, Christian's realm welcomed a special visitor. Marianne had gone out of the city secretly, and she had only taken a personal maid with her, and she took out a token from Archduke Ferdinand and asked to see Prince Christian alone.

"Who did you say asked to meet Chris alone?" Leopold looked at the guard officer in surprise: "Princess Marianne? The only daughter of Archduke Ferdinand? Did I hear me right? ”

"It was a noble woman with a hood, I couldn't see her face clearly, but she took out a token of Archduke Ferdinand." The guard officer reported one by one: "She only brought a maid, and she did come from the direction of Wangcheng." ”

"You go and tell her," Christian commanded calmly, "it's impossible to meet me alone, but I can meet her with Leopold and Prince Edward." If she accepts the conditions, you bring her straight over. ”()
