Chapter 187: The Prince's Test on
readx;
"I will follow the arrangement of my father, Duke Webster, and it is my wish to be able to bring peace to the two countries. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 Ace and King Byron looked at each other, not panicking in the slightest, for she had learned to lie calmly in front of others.
King Byron said "um", "Our Kingdom of Salins will definitely continue to maintain allied relations with the Duchy of Dlaman, please rest assured that you and your father will not change the status quo even after Walter returns." Byron didn't dwell on Cose's answer, and Coss didn't give a positive answer, but from the glance that Ansoil cast on him, it was clear that what Amsoil wanted to hear most was the answer "marry the prince".
The banquet was soon over, and all the ministers went about their own thoughts, and as they left the palace, they walked together in twos and threes, and discussed in a low voice the matter of King Byron's appointment of the prince. And many nobles and ministers who supported the second prince Ansu surrounded Ansuo and congratulated the prince.
"King Byron still understands things! You are the wisest choice to choose Prince Amsoon!"
"Yes, the throne of the king should not be decided by age and mother's origin! the most capable person should be the future king of the Kingdom of Salins, this is what everyone expects!"
King Byron must have heard the voice of the people of Mallot, and with your achievements, Prince Amsol, not even three Bradley can compare. ”
The nobles talked loudly and unscrupulously, and the ministers of the rest of the faction were silent, as if they were in the wrong, and left the palace with their heads bowed. And Ansu didn't show a happy expression, he still walked with a serious face, and he didn't know if it was to pretend to be like he didn't want to be discovered, or because of King Byron's words later-"The prince is not sure, and he has to pass my test!"
This is what Amsoil is most concerned about, after all, only by passing the test given by his father can he become a true prince, and until the last resort, Amsoil will not resort to the plan he has been preparing for a long time...
When King Byron returned to his bedchamber, the young Queen Rosemund, hurried to meet him.
"My king, have you declared the prince's belonging?"
"It's said that women can't talk about politics!" Byron waved the queen away, and took off her coat herself, "You have also got what you want, let Amsoil be the temporary prince, and then it will be up to you to see if your plan is feasible." ”
Rosemund walked behind Byron and began to give the sixty-one-year-old king a shoulder beat, "That's just a proposal from a concubine, I didn't expect my king to really implement it, if I can, I really hope that the three princes can be treated equally, but there is no way to be equal in terms of birth and age, just like my own child..."
The news of Ansol's appointment as the prince soon spread, and the Kestrel Academy exploded like a pot, and all the students were talking about it. Although the head of the academy, Dugol, made it clear that no one at the military academy should be involved in the internal politics of the kingdom, the young cadets were very concerned about the future leaders of the kingdom, and they all wanted to know who the loyal masters would be in their future.
"Students, Prince Ansoil has become the prince of our Kingdom of Salins, although King Byron claims that this is only a temporary decision, and it will give the three princes different tests, but we believe that Prince Ansoil is the best choice at this moment!" a student who supported the second prince Ansoil stood at the bottom of the academy building during the recess and shouted, many students stopped to listen to this student's political opinions.
"The second prince's ability is obvious to all, the aqueduct he built for Mallotte to improve the bad effects of the rainy season, the division of the city he advocated made Mallot's law and order better, he advocated the reduction of taxes, the lowering of the threshold for doing business to make the kingdom of Sarins richer and stronger... These achievements are strong evidence that Prince Amsoil can be a wise leader! We should continue to study hard!
An academy teacher walked over quickly, trying to drive away the student who was wantonly promoting political ideas, but the student who supported Amsoil still shouted Amsol's name, intending to call more academy students to the side of the second prince in this way.
Avi also heard the other party's "declaration", but he did not change his position - the eldest prince Bradley is the best candidate for the successor of the Kingdom of Salins.
At this moment, all the students heard someone's voice coming from the top floor of the academy, "Is the second prince Ansu really the most suitable candidate?" I plan to test him with my own method. ”
All the students ran to the top floor, and so did Avi. Avi saw the man standing on the top floor of the academy wearing a white hood, covering his face with a cloth, wearing a shabby brown robe, and all parts of his body wrapped in mystery.
"Wow! It's a college ghost!"
More and more students are coming out of the classroom, and some teachers are rushing up the top floor, trying to catch the pretending guy.
"If you also want to know whether the second prince Ansu has the ability to become the prince of the kingdom, then please cooperate with me and use your righteous heart to cleanse Mallot's sin and greed!" As soon as the academy ghost finished speaking, several teachers with good skills climbed up to the top floor, while the academy ghost ran to the other side of the top floor, where there was no way to escape.
The Academy Ghost stood on the edge of the roof, ignoring the Academy Faculty who was chasing after him, he suddenly untied the robe that wrapped him and leaped straight forward. All the students let out a burst of exclamation, but the academy ghost did not fall from the height, he took out two soft boards like butterfly wings from the robe, and kept stirring, like a beautiful butterfly, slowly sliding towards the outside of the kestrel academy wall. It wasn't until he slid down to a large tree that grew outside the walls that the students who had developed a sense of adoration for the ghosts of the academy breathed a sigh of relief.
"Damn! Escaped by the ghost of the academy again!" a student standing next to Avi was dissatisfied.
"But what is the test he is talking about? Sounds very interesting, and it has something to do with our Kestrel Academy, so I'm kind of looking forward to it..."
Avi suddenly remembered that Mr. Rost had asked him to pay attention to Celenos, because many teachers suspected that the ghost of the academy who kept playing ghosts was Celenos. Avi immediately ran back to his class and found that the senior of Sylanes was sleeping backwards, and he had never left his seat at all, and the person who was standing on the roof of the building just now and making a statement was obviously not Silanos.
Early the next morning, when Avi returned to the Kestrel Academy with Stitch, he saw that several large sheets of paper were stuffed into each classroom, and the same thing was written on each large piece of paper—" Marlot's water magistrate Karl was corrupt and most of the workers who built and maintained the canals were oppressed by Carl, and their wages were deducted and became commonplace; Mibo, the magistrate of the northern part of Mallot, used his power to determine the intensity of governance according to his own will, and even accepted bribes and funds, making Mallot's northern city a breeding ground for criminals; Mallot's deputy tax governor Gallinari was favoritist and always added more taxes to those caravans from other countries, while treating some merchants in the kingdom differently, and even allowing some merchants to evade taxes, resulting in problems in the kingdom's tax revenue。 These three Mallot's officials were all appointed by the second prince Anso, and they are all tumors and stains on the kingdom of Salins, which is also a test for Prince Anso, as the prince of the kingdom of Salins, he should dare to deal with these three officials appointed by himself, and give an explanation to the people of the kingdom of Salins - the messenger of justice. ”
The students of the Kestrel Academy exploded in an instant, and they all took the large papers distributed by the ghosts of the academy to find the various teachers, asking to deal with this matter seriously.
Avi was also angry at what was said on paper, after all, the Kestrel Academy had always sent a message to all students that it was important to be fair and impartial, and that even cheating on exams would result in expulsion. If these three officials really broke the law and abused their power for personal gain, as they said on paper, they would definitely be spurned by the people of Mallot, and they would also be punished with the most severe legal sanctions.
Those enthusiastic and righteous students even rushed into the room of the head of the academy, Dugol, and demanded that the head of the academy thoroughly investigate the situation of the three officials.
The head of the house, Dugol, and the other teachers looked at the large papers, and they frowned, and they had to consider reporting this matter, after all, such things can be big or small, and if the truth is really what this "messenger of justice" said, then the news will definitely reach the ears of King Byron. King Byron was notoriously harsh, and he would never allow such corrupt officials to "parasitize" in the capital.
"Think twice," said a professor of law, "Carl, Mibo, and Gallinari are all members of the second prince Amsol, and if this matter is reported to the higher authorities, it will definitely affect the reputation of the second prince, who has just become the prince..."
"Even if we don't report it, this will definitely get out!" another teacher objected.
The law teacher said, "Then it shouldn't be reported to us, if the second prince really becomes the king, and we are causing trouble for him now, the Kestrel Academy may..."
"Hmph, didn't the ghost of the academy say it yesterday, this is a test he gave to the second prince, what does it have to do with us? Besides, I believe that the second prince has a big heart, and he will definitely punish these corrupt officials with his own hands. ”
"I don't think it's better to make up your mind so quickly, maybe all three of them are innocent, but it's just fake news spread by the ghosts of the academy. ”
Dugol looked at Rost, "What do you think, Rost?"
Rost looked at the names of the three officials, they were all representatives of the second prince's political achievements, "Everyone, we are shouldering the future of the Kingdom of Sarins, and all the students are watching, so it is necessary for the current prince to solve this matter personally." ”
