It's a memorable moment, the first time I've written a book, the first time I've written a hundred chapters, keep it up!

========================================================

July 1, 1223 in the new continental calendar, may be a very ordinary day for the whole continent, but not for the people of the Kingdom of England. Because on this day, a young girl claims to be the undisclosed daughter of the previous king of England. She claimed that the prisoner riots that occurred in the city of London some time ago were planned by the current king Alpens, in order to eradicate the orthodox successor, the second prince Alcius.

And the second prince, Alcius, told her the truth before he died, and asked her to replace him as the new king of the Kingdom of England. Therefore, she hereby calls on the people of the whole country to rise up and rebel against the eldest prince Alpens, and defeat the great prince who intends to usurp the throne.

Regardless of whether the people of the whole country want to conform to this girl, whether her identity as a princess is true or not, and whether the second prince really knows her, whether he is dead or not, whether he has contact with her, in short, no matter what the truth is. What everyone knows so far is that this girl has the strong support of Yas, the lord of Nick City, and the surrounding city lords, and that is enough.

A group of forces led by Nick City made it clear that the royal identity of the girl, that is, Artoria, was real and conclusive, and the city lord Yas still had a handwritten letter that the old king had given him to keep, and it was written that he also had a daughter who had not been disclosed to the public, and her name was Artoria. Because of some unspeakable secrets on her, she has never made it public.

This statement is naturally nonsense, but the letter does exist, and it is the product of both truth and falsehood that Wang Xiaoming single-handedly imitated. It is said to be fake because it was not written by the old king himself, and it is said to be true because the handwriting on the letter is indeed the handwriting of the old king, which is also something that Wang Xiaoming made with his ability.

Yas was a prominent figure who followed the old king, and his reputation in the country was extremely high, and many people believed in it, and they also knew why the new king kept sending soldiers to search for the traces of the second prince in the country, and at the same time issued search orders in various cities. It turned out that it was not to rescue him, but to kill people. Now, the second prince is dead, but it also leads to the mysterious second princess daughter (Artoria claims to be born before Fili).

As a result, the people of many cities verbally expressed their support for the princess Artoria and accused the eldest prince Alpens of usurping the throne. Of course, it's just words, what should be done usually is still what should be done, after all, they won't be stupid enough to help this unknown princess who suddenly jumped out.

But, at the very least, the advantage in public opinion has been grasped by Artoria. Because she has Yas, the most powerful figure, to help. As the old king's most trusted minister, what he said naturally had to be believed. So in Nick City, most of the people welcomed this handsome girl very warmly.

Of course, Wang Xiaoming still has a lot of self-pity: "It's really the era of looking at faces! If it weren't for Al being so "cool", how could the masses accept her so quickly. It's all a group of appearance associations. ”

"Haha, Xiaoming, isn't this a good thing? Adam said. He was also a little surprised by this, because the people accepted it too simply. They don't need to do much propaganda work at all.

Yes, they are "my king". It's a little thing, it's so easy.

The same can be said for leading an army.

With the help of Yas, Artoria finally began to master the army. On the occasion of the first meeting with all the soldiers, through a declaration of righteous words and a small "show of strength", the 5,000 soldiers were immediately convinced by Artoria. Among them, there is naturally the credit of Wang Xiaoming's dream prediction, and the strength and charm of the girl herself are also indispensable. And under Wang Xiaoming's advice, the training is carried out with the soldiers at all times, and the amount of training is more and more difficult.

As a result, the soldiers also trained more diligently, and their morale grew higher and higher. Artoria's prestige in the army also grew.

Seeing such a scene, Yas sighed with great relief: "Although His Royal Highness Alpens is not bad, if it is led by His Royal Highness Leah, the Kingdom of England may have a great position on the continent. The future of the kingdom will be brighter. ”

He instructed Adam, "Adam, you must work hard, or you will not be able to keep up with His Highness Ria." ”

"I understand, father. Adam understood this, too, so he was involved in the training of soldiers like the maiden.

This atmosphere of hard work and diligence has also spread throughout Nick City, whether it is a commoner, a nobleman, a mercenary, or so on, all of them are infected by Artoria's pragmatic and sincere temperament. At least in Nick City, no one would object to a maiden being king.

And among them, it is unknown whether Wang Xiaoming is secretly making a stalk.

Anyway, as time went on, more and more territorial powers in the Kingdom of England expressed their support for the girl. Suddenly, the kingdom was divided into two factions, one was the eldest prince's faction, and the other was the newly emerged Lia royal faction.

Artoria's career is thriving, while Alpens's is a little bad.

Although the military power is still in the hands, it is obvious that the people's hearts have slowly been lost, and even in the army, there are beginning to be unstable emotions. Once Artoria really leads his troops, there is a good chance that these unstable soldiers will defect.

However, even in such a bad situation, the eldest prince Alpens remained unfazed, and he made a move that surprised everyone: he sent a letter to Artoria of Nick City, asking for a decisive battle outside London to decide who would become king of the Kingdom of England.

"What's the matter? Why is the wise prince so stupid at this moment, does he think that Queen Leah will agree to this ridiculous request? He asks to fight with the soldiers of only one city, but the city of London has a full number of 15,000 soldiers, and the city of Nick is only 5,000 at most, can such a gap be beaten?"

"Princess Leah will definitely not agree. Regardless of the support of more and more people in the country, only relying on Nick City to fight against the capital of the kingdom, no matter how strong she is, how can she defeat the tens of thousands of troops in London City with only a few thousand men?"

"yes. Moreover, there are no cavalry, only infantry. There are thousands of cavalry in the city of London. ”

Many thought Artoria would not agree to Alpens's reluctance request. Artoria's response made the eyes of those who insisted that she would not agree to the request widen, and their glasses shattered to the ground.

Artoria agreed.

He agreed to use only the army of Nick to fight against the army of the royal city, so as to determine the true king of the kingdom of England.

This incident spread throughout the kingdom in an instant, and even spread to several surrounding countries, including the Mukas Empire and the Orc Empire.

There are those who praise the girl's upright character, and there are those who ridicule her IQ problems. In short, all parties have different attitudes towards Artoria's decision, and different people have different understandings.

The only thing that is clear is that although the matter was raised by Alpens, the focus was almost entirely on Artoria. As for the proposer, no one has the leisure to pay attention.

Alpens Bedchamber

"These people are so hateful. It was obviously a request from Brother Wang, but in the end, all the attention was paid to Xius. The third prince Altais said angrily.

"Theis, there's no need to be angry about this kind of thing. Sometimes, it's good to avoid the limelight. Especially at times like these, when you have time to get angry, you might as well go and calm the demoralized army. When the time comes, we will have to rely on these soldiers to fight outside the city. Alpens looked calm and spoke very calmly.

"Moreover, she is not called Alcius now, Alceus is dead. Now she is Artoria. Got it?" Alpens chuckled to himself.

"Yes......" Altais sighed a few times when he saw Alpens laugh, "I didn't expect her to be so fatal and able to escape under General Karn's self-detonation." Is this really the favor of the gods?"

"Whether it's the favor of the gods, I don't know. But with the character named Wang Xiaoming helping her, it is certain. ”

"That guy...... Brother Wang, can you really believe what he said to us before?" Altaïs hesitated.

"If you don't believe it, you have to believe it. At least judging from the current situation, what he said is not unreasonable. Alpens took a sip of tea and said slowly.

"If we do not win or lose a decisive battle, the infighting will only continue, and in this case, it will only be the surrounding countries that will benefit, and our kingdom of England will fall into a state of no return. At that time, we will only become sinners, which is something I don't want to see. You know what? Tyce. ”

"I understand. At the beginning, Brother Wang was because he thought that Xiusi was ...... felt that Leah was not qualified for the position of king, so he planned to replace her. ”

"Yes, at the beginning, I didn't think she would be able to bring a future to the country. But now, it's different. She already has that potential. I probably can't compare to her. ”

"Brother Wang!"

"But even so, I'd like to be able to give it a try. I hope to be able to defeat her now and prove that I am also capable of succeeding to the throne. My father's decision was wrong, and I am qualified to be king. Alpens looked serious and spoke loudly.

"I will always support Brother Wang. Altaïs said with a smile.

"Thank you, Tess. In the end, you are the only one in the royal family who supports me. Alpens said helplessly.

"As long as Brother Wang can win the decisive battle. Everything can be reversed. ”

"Well, you're right. Get ready for the showdown now. ”

"Yes. With that, Altaïs walked out of the dormitory.

Alpens lifted his teacup and looked at the slightly flowing surface of the tea. He liked it so that he could think quietly.

...... A trial for Leah......

Wang Xiaoming, who are you and why are you doing this?

Alpens looked at the teacup, his eyes not moving.
