"You wolf-hearted things, you beasts in human skin......"

"Stay away from our house!"

"I'll let the dogs bite you to death!"

In the neighborhood of Kislev City, when the conscription team arrived at the scene, there were already a lot of civilians gathered here, and those who were about to lose their houses gathered and shouted at the conscripts. Some yelled at the guards, while others cursed. Ever since Pavel announced the rebuilding of the city of Kislev, similar incidents have been happening.

The original intention of the king's order was for the good of the people, to rebuild the city, so that the people could have better living conditions. However, large and small affairs could not be handled by the king himself, but could only be left to the ministers, various dukes, and nobles. When orders are conveyed layer by layer, there will always be people who will take advantage of the loopholes in the policy to make their own profits. The nobles who had risen to power through the Pavel uprising did not receive tangible benefits after the Tsar's accession to the throne, so they profited themselves in various places in order to recoup the "losses" caused by supporting Pavel in those years.

The demolition of civilian homes by order issued by the Tsar was one of them.

"Calm down, I will tell you one last time, it was the order of Tsar Pavel to collect your residence and build the Grand Theater. The compensation has been delivered to each of you, do you not know that you are satisfied, and do you want to disobey the king's orders?"

Baron Fars, who had come with his troops to ask for a house, read it out loud to the people and shouted. However, the faces of the people were not much better because of the baron's sophistry, on the contrary, the civilians who were about to lose their only property were even more agitated by the threat.

"Compensation? you! That money isn't enough for us to buy half a month's bread! What are we going to do after half a month? Are we sleeping on the streets?"

The angry crowd shouted at the conscription, at the high Baron Fars.

"Well, I've heard enough of your endless protests. This is the king's order, and if there is any dissatisfaction and demand, go to His Majesty Pavel. Now, please get out of the way, this house has been acquired. ”

Ignoring the agitation of the population, Fars did not change his face and calmly demanded that the refugees get out of the way. Yes, they should be called refugees, penniless except for a house.

"You don't want to touch my house!"

"Is the king going to drive us out of our house and live in the streets?"

"Oh, no...... It's going to freeze to death in this weather!"

The emotions of the people became more and more agitated, and some people began to push the guards who came to expropriate the houses.

However, Fars just said lightly-

"Let them go. ”

With this sentence, the scene completely spiraled out of control, and the angry crowd took stones, sticks, and everything that could be used as weapons, and smashed them all on the guards. The baron's guards were not as heavily armed as the Praetorian Guards around the King, most of them were dressed in leather armor and improvised helmets, and several of them were besieged by angry civilians, bleeding profusely on the spot.

"Get rid of them! damn it, get rid of them!"

Fars sat in the carriage and cursed loudly. The guards began to carry out the orders of their masters.

Suddenly, an agitated man rushed up from the side and threw himself into the baron's carriage. The guard pulled out his long sword in a panic, and this sword stabbed just into the man's chest. In an instant, the tip of the sword pierced through the man's chest, and it stabbed into the chest, and with the sound of screams, the emotions of the people were completely out of control.

The angry civilians began to shoot the guards to death. More and more civilians joined, and the baron's carriage was almost surrounded...... "Withdraw, protect me......" Fars could only hastily order the guards to retreat.

"They attacked Fars and wounded him. This is contempt for royal power!"

At the Bandagarh Palace, news of the civilian attack on Fars reached the ears of King Pavel. The ministers talked a lot, and Fergus even demanded that the new emperor Pavel severely punish the people who made trouble. Faced with the chaos of the situation, Pavel only felt dizzy. He didn't even understand what was really going on. It's obviously a very good thing, but in the hands of these nobles, how can it completely change its taste. He was angry and wanted to establish his prestige among the commoners, but in the end he was screwed up by these nobles. But Pavel also knew that he could not directly attack them, otherwise, the entire nobles of Kislev would unite and his throne would be lost.

In a dilemma, he can only suppress his anger for the time being.

"Your Majesty, you must arrest the rioters and whip them in the Ice and Snow Square. Otherwise, this kind of thing will happen again in the future!"

Fergus continued, saying that it was admonition, but it was like persecution. Make it difficult for Pavel to step down.

"Your Majesty, please make a decision at once! You must teach these mobs a lesson! Give Baron Fars justice. ”

"Your Majesty......"

"Enough!"

All kinds of troubled voices sounded in the hall at the same time, and Pavel finally couldn't help it. He patted the armrest of the throne hard, making a crisp, high-pitched sound.

"Are you kings or am I kings?!"

Pavel's shrill voice echoed through the hall, and everyone fell silent.

"Give me an explanation...... Hmph, how am I going to give an account? Arrest those homeless civilians and flog them, do you want to see more civilians riot? Is there still a shortage of riots in Kislev all these years?"

Pavel's angry rebuke was so hysterical that everyone present did not dare to speak. They knew the "mercy" of the new king. However, governing a kingdom cannot be done by mercy and kindness alone......

"The budget for the construction of the Grand Theater includes resettlement money for the people who have been demolished, and who can tell me why it is not enough to buy half a month's bread and rations in the hands of the people?"

Pavel's anger burned Kislev's officials, big and small. They bowed their heads and did not dare to look directly at the king.

......

In the Tsar's bedchamber, when Pavel returned to his room with a gloomy face and told Queen Dennis about what happened in the hall today, Dennis looked so calm. She already knew, or guessed. Pavel's character, and the current situation in Kislev, are destined for such a thing......

"Don't you see their ugly faces, beasts in human skins, eating people and not spitting out bones. I'm going to get to the bottom of it! I'm going to get to the bottom of it!"

An angry Pavel sat at the head of the bed, his face resentful.

In stark contrast, is the calm and ordinary queen.

"No, you can't figure it out. If it is really to be thoroughly investigated, there are problems with Kislev's officials, large and small. Are you going to put all the officials in a dungeon?"

Standing behind Pavel, Dennis said coldly. These words could not help but make the young king's scalp tingle. His heart was pierced like a sharp knife, and it was extremely painful. The reality is so dark and cruel, he wants to clean up the country well, but everyone is like a selfish and greedy demon, eager to strip others and fill themselves.

"My husband, the new king of Kislev, you must know that there are no absolute good people and no absolute bad people in this world. When I was a little girl, I saw many such dark things. The former Kislev School of Magic was full of shady deeds, and my sisters, if you were really serious, each of them had done something for the Snow Queen. Am I going to settle old scores with them?"

Dennis rubbed Pavel's shoulders and gradually persuaded the young king of Kislev. He had to grow up, if he wanted to really stabilize the country, if he wanted to pull Kislev out of war-torn poverty.
