Ling Xiao's face was calm: "I thought that Your Majesty thought that he was not sick. ”

The king stared at Ling Xiao for a long time before shaking his head and sighing, "You are different from your father! Then he added, "If you say yes, Cameron Town...... It's yours! Of course, how to make it completely surnamed Ling depends on your means, but I believe that my second son knows how to forbear better than the boss! Also, I allow you to have private soldiers, as for the number... It's only three thousand! This is already a number that can only be possessed at the earl level!"

"Isn't Your Majesty afraid, I'll do something to control Your Majesty from now on?" Ling Xiao said lightly with a faint smile on his face. At this moment, he fully understood why the king was in such a hurry to find himself, and he didn't shy away from Marshal Qiu. It is clear that he has fallen into a shocking conspiracy to poison His Majesty the King and the Generalissimo of the Imperial Army at the same time...... It seems that the entire empire, there will be no more than two people!

It's not the crown prince, it's the king of the south!

The king's somewhat emaciated body slowly leaned back in the chair, and the fire-bursting lion king embroidered by hand on his robe came to life with the movement of the king's body.

"I'm sure you won't do that!"

His Majesty said with certainty: "Because you are a wise man!"

"Since Your Majesty has such a mind, then it seems to be a mistake for Old Marshal Qiu to appear at the banquet today!" Ling Xiao asked.

"Error?"

The king smiled coldly, and did not answer Ling Xiao's meaning, the old marshal Qiuchen appeared at this banquet in order to deter those people, the king has reason to believe that he is afraid that the day he can't do it will be the moment when the country is in ruins.

When the old marshal Qiuchen was poisoned, His Majesty the King was angry about it for a long time, thinking that it was done by some hostile force, and the biggest suspicion was the Zichuan Empire!

Who knew that since this spring, the king has felt that something is wrong with his body, and often has a feeling of fatigue and sleepiness, and at first he thought that it was because he was too tired, and who knew that this situation was getting worse and worse.

When it was time for the imperial physician to examine him, he finally found a virus in His Majesty's blood, and this virus was something they had never seen before! But these experienced doctors could confirm one thing, that is, the poison in His Majesty the King was obviously not the effect of a day or two, but could only be felt after a long period of accumulation!

Now the king finally got angry, and when he thought about the old marshal Qiuchen, the minister who was only loyal to himself, the king seemed to understand everything. His Majesty the King is a person who has taken the Vatia Holy Fruit, and his strength is also a second-order demon swordsman, although he is the king of a country, but his cultivation has never been interrupted, if there are no special circumstances, it is normal to live to be over ninety years old. And this year, he is not yet seventy years old!

His Majesty the King, who was frightened and angry, secretly investigated for a long time, but failed to find any clues, but this kind of thing, it seems that there is no need for obvious evidence, and when I was sad in my heart, I suddenly got a secret report from the Imperial Academy that Marshal Qiu's illness for many years was actually cured!

His Majesty the King was overjoyed by this news, and immediately, he endured the turmoil in his heart, secretly got in touch with Qiuchen, and learned that the person who cured him was the third son of the imperial general Ling Tianxiao. Then, yesterday he suddenly announced that he was going to hold a grand banquet, the purpose of which was to celebrate the first battle between humans and beasts in hundreds of years, and achieved a great victory!

Then, when the banquet was going on, it was announcing an earth-shattering news - the old marshal of the empire, Qiuchen's strong return!

At present, except for Qiuchen's family, Shangguan Yutong, and His Majesty the King, no one knows that Qiuchen was cured by Ling Xiao, so Qiuchen suddenly reappeared in front of people as a fifth-order demon sword master, in addition to reassuring most nobles, the emperor [***] god has returned, it will definitely make some people frightened!

As for the canonization of Ling Xiao as a viscount, the fief Cameron Town, this can see the old spicy coming of His Majesty the King, the reason is very simple, Ling Xiao found and killed the murderer Haitian who was slaughtered by the Marquis!

After all, after the tragedy of that year, for a long time, everyone was in danger, and the nobles were silent, and it was also from that time that those nobles realized the terrible things about high-level warriors, and began to recruit high-ranking warriors with heavy money as family staff or worship.

However, there is only this one, the title of Viscount Ling Xiao, the crown prince will definitely object, the Ling family has already produced a third-class duke, although it is not hereditary, but it is already worthy of squeezing into the ranks of the first-class families in the empire, if there is another hereditary viscount, the Ling family's power will definitely become more and more huge! Especially the nobles who have fiefs can have their own private soldiers! The prince is already not on good terms with the Ling family, how can he let the Ling family become bigger.

But the old king set Ling Xiao's fief in that tax-heavy land, one of the richest cities in the south, Cameron Town!

I believe that as long as people who are not stupid, they will see that the old king's move is to use the Ling family to balance the king of the south, in this case, His Royal Highness the Prince, who has always been deeply jealous of the second brother, will never raise objections even if he is unwilling in his heart.

He wished he could see the Ling family and the king of the south fighting to the death! As for the collusion between the Ling family and the king of the south...... The prince wished to see such a scene, then he had the best excuse to attack his brave second brother.

In this matter, it seems that the one who suffers the most is Li Wutong, the king of the south, although he will get some rewards because of his merits in fighting against the orcs, but a piece of fat in his hand has been carved up by others!

And on the contrary, this person is still his son's close friend!

Although in the face of interests, the friendship of the children's generation may not be as hard as window paper, but for the sake of long-term consideration, Li Wutong must not want to offend the Ling family! An ally like Ling Tianxiao is obviously better than an enemy like him!

Therefore, behind the seemingly absurd reward of the old king, there are so many twists and turns hidden!

Using a small child to completely balance his two sons! Although this is tantamount to taking advantage of the Ling family, the old king thinks that he has given the Ling family enough benefits! Moreover, everyone in the entire Blue Moon Empire should be loyal to the Great King! Isn't it?

To be honest, without experiencing this kind of struggle between high-level leaders, Ling Xiao could not have guessed so many insiders, but there is one point, Ling Xiao first wants nothing from external things, and in the eyes of the world, he is above everything else, and he can even give his life for the word fame and fortune.

So in this, the starting point of the old king's first speculation about Ling Xiao's mind was already wrong!

He couldn't have imagined that as a son of a nobleman, what Ling Xiao's mind was thinking was completely different from other people!

So, some of the things he wants to see will not be seen at all in the future.

"Viscount Ling Xiao, later, I will personally award you a medal!" The old king looked at Ling Xiao gently, and then said: "Now, it's time for you young people, go and get to know those noble ladies, maybe, they will like you very much!"
