When Gwenlith arrived at the council chamber, the anger on her face had not completely dissipated. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

If she hadn't given birth to Amy, Gwen would have wondered if she was her own.

In the past, when Connor and Leon had a conflict, Amy did not choose to help his own brother Connell, but sided with Leon's side. When Gwen intervenes and settles the matter, Amy and her inevitably quarrel over it, and now that Leon is in exile, the situation is not getting better.

"The Queen Mother, you're here. "Home Secretary Colin is waiting outside the door.

The council chamber is where the king convenes his ministers to discuss matters after the court meeting, and today the ministers gather here to discuss the affairs of the Knight of Conan, and Colin is the Minister of the Interior, and this kind of council must be attended.

As the queen mother and not the minister of the court, Gwenlith was not allowed to participate in the parliament, but the king was not yet of the age to rule, so she could participate in political affairs and give the king some advice. When the king was old enough, she could no longer participate in the council.

"Colin, why aren't you in there?" Gwen couldn't help but wonder when she saw Colin outside the door. The court meeting has long ended, and he should discuss it in the council chamber at this time.

"His Majesty has not yet arrived, and I don't want to listen to the nagging of those people inside, so I have to breathe outside, and I want to tell you one thing by the way. Colin deliberately lowered his voice as he said his last words.

"Say it. Gwen didn't want to lose time.

"Leon discovers ore in the town and makes a deal with the merchants of Whitemist City. Colin replied.

Gwen didn't send someone to keep an eye on Leon all the time, but as the queen mother's henchman, he was always careful in doing things, so he secretly sent someone to spy on him.

"Colin, will he still turn the sky upside down? Now you should think about what to do with the Duke. Gwen looked a little dissatisfied after hearing this, and found out that the ore could do something big, the royal family had 10,000 elite soldiers, and they could crush him to death like an ant at any time.

Colin nodded in agreement, but he still didn't feel like he had done anything wrong, he just did his part.

Gwen entered the council chamber, followed by Colin.

The former Prime Minister Qiao Shuhua was standing behind the door pacing, and the king had not shown up, so there was no way to proceed with today's deliberations.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer and the Commander of the Praetorian Army were talking, and the scholar had his eyes closed and wondered if he was asleep.

"The Queen Mother. The ministers stood up and saluted.

"Queen Mother, when will Your Majesty come?" Prime Minister Qiao Shuhua asked first, today's matter cannot be sloppy, and the consequences of not handling it well are likely to lead to war.

"Don't worry, Lord Qiao, I've already sent someone to find it. Gwen said to the crowd as he stepped into the chief's position.

This seat was originally occupied by the king, and now that he has not come, Gwen sits down to hold a council. She didn't expect the king to have a solution anyway, and if he had, he wouldn't have done such a thing.

"If you have any ideas, let's talk about them. "The fact that the king did not come, perhaps it was a good thing for them.

"The title of Duke O'Dohono is not inherited, but the reward he received for King Jamie's pacification of the war, and his territory is not weak in strength, and the general compensation may not satisfy him. "The scholar spoke first, but it was all nonsense, and if general compensation could solve the problem, they wouldn't be here today.

Gwen selectively ignored the scholar, a man of great age, with white hair on his head whiter than snow, and his face was full of wrinkles, and he thought he had his eyes closed if he didn't pay attention. The chains around his neck were strung with various iron rings, which were symbols of his knowledge. Now that he is living more and more, he should have quit the ranks of parliamentary ministers a long time ago in Gwen's eyes.

"What are you afraid of, scholar, can't Xue Man's troops still be able to defeat a lord?" The commander of the forbidden army is in his forties this year, and he participated in several battles when he was young, and the blood in his bones has not cooled down after more than ten years of peace.

"Today is here to discuss countermeasures, not to start a war. The scholar was obviously dissatisfied with the ridicule of the commander of the forbidden army, and in the eyes of the scholar, these people who wielded knives and guns were war maniacs, and they were about to go to war casually.

Gwen only felt a headache when she heard their words, and now that the problem was in front of her, the two men not only did not help, but quarreled with each other.

"Let's get back to business. Qiao Shuhua couldn't listen to it anymore, as the prime minister for so many years, he has solved the contradictions between the two.

The council chamber fell silent, and everyone stopped talking without a good idea.

"The duke came up step by step by relying on battlefield merits, money has little effect on him, and reputation is what he values. I think it's through a marriage with the royal family that this matter is handled. Qiao Shuhua thought for a while and said, although he and the duke are not very familiar, they still have a certain understanding of him.

Gwen nodded, and finally someone had something useful.

Gwen actually didn't like Qiao Shuhua in his heart, he had openly opposed some of his own measures before, and he had secretly investigated the cause of King Jamie's death in the past year, if it weren't for his too stable position in the court, Gwen would have ousted him from power.

This is not the time to take him down, and he will need to put a lot of effort into dealing with the matter of the Conan Knights.

"Marriage? Now that the Knight of Conan is dead, who will he marry?" the commander of the forbidden army didn't like the mother-in-law's approach, what a big deal was the son of a duke.

"Knight Conan is gone, but he has a sister whom His Majesty can take as queen. "Qiao Shuhua did research before coming up with this method, and everything was not casual.

But his sister was only ten years old, and it would take a few years for him to become queen. "Home Secretary Colin certainly looked into it. There are still a few years to go, and the king cannot wait that long, and when he reaches the age of consulship next year, the king should have a queen bear children for him.

"Is there a better way for Lord Colin?" Qiao Shuhua didn't mind Colin's questioning, this was the best way he could think of at the moment.

The hall was silent again.

Gwen quickly made a decision: "I think marrying the Duke is the best option." ”

Colin: "But ......"

Gwen knew what Colin meant, and she said, "It's not the queen, but the princess." ”

Qiao Shuhua: "The duke's second son was born to a concubine, even if he becomes the heir, he can only be demoted to an earl in the future, do you want the princess to marry him?"

Gwen shook her head meaningfully: "Princess Amy must be a duchess, and she is going to marry Duke O'Dohono. ”

The ministers couldn't believe their ears that the Queen Mother was going to marry the princess to the father of the Knight of Conan.
