Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Means of Her Royal Highness

"Ladies and gentlemen, please stay. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Juana's gaze swept like a blade over every nobleman present. At the award ceremony just now, Her Royal Highness canonized fifteen nobles at once, you must know that such a large-scale award is very rare in the history of the kingdom, and some angry nobles wanted to leave but were stopped by the guards at the door.

Twelve knights, a baron, a viscount, and an earl, these promoted upstarts have formed a small team of Her Royal Highness. There is no doubt that these people are all followers of Her Royal Highness, and they all fought bloody battles for Her Royal Highness on the night of the mutiny, which they 'deserved'.

But the problem is that what Her Royal Highness Juana thinks is 'right' in the eyes of most nobles is a naked provocation, since the kingdom, since the first king of Galicia and the nobles jointly recognized the Treaty of Abraham, no king in the history of the kingdom has dared to shake the foundation of the nobles, not to mention that Her Royal Highness who presided over the award is not a king now!

(PS: The Treaty of Abraham was created by Charlemagne the Great in ancient times, and its text clearly stipulated the conditions for the canonization of nobles, and stipulated many provisions to protect the interests of nobles, and almost all kingdoms (empires) in later generations adopted and recognized the Treaty of Abraham.) ）

"You have no rights, it's a violation of the Treaty of Abraham!" a certain nobleman stepped forward, but in his heart he did not approve of the female heir, and thought that it was better for the woman to stay at home. Just kidding, what kind of people are these people who have become nobles all at once by virtue of their achievements in the First World War? Not only will he not approve of it, but the vast majority of nobles will not approve of it. In fact, the twelve knights are easy to say, after all, it is just a fictitious title of nobleman, and the knight, as the lowest first-class nobleman, has no fief. This does not involve the core interests of most nobles, but the baron, a viscount, and even an earl?! These are all real nobles with fiefs! And this time it is not from the direct domain of the king (princess) to divide the nobles, these people are canonized titles that are inherent in the past!

If someone is canonized to a former title (title), it usually means only one thing, and the person who originally held the title was stripped of the title and had his title revoked for various reasons. The nobles present secretly felt sorry for themselves, Is Her Royal Highness finally going to attack them? Therefore, the great nobles in the north of the kingdom have no way to retreat, and Her Royal Highness must give them an 'answer' here today.

"Well, why don't I have the right?" Her Royal Highness Juana, dressed in a blue evening dress, picked up her sword, and she slowly walked towards the nobleman who spoke.

"I remember you, you are the only son of the Marquis of Leon, what is your name?" Juana scratched her head playfully, as if she really didn't remember the son-in-law of the great nobleman.

"Alfonso Leon. The brown-haired young nobleman did not bow to His Highness Juana, this was not a way for him to express his displeasure, and the real reason why he could not bow and salute was that Her Royal Highness's sword of love was already on his neck.

"No nobleman would recognize you in such a way. Alfonso León stared into the eyes of His Royal Highness, and he didn't dare to say anything to Juana.

"Doesn't anyone approve of it?" Her Royal Highness's sword moved, and a strand of Asuo's hair was cut off.

"You are a naked humiliation!" Asofang did not retreat from Juana's actions, not only him, but also the hereditary nobles present thought that Her Royal Highness's actions were provocative.

More and more nobles stood behind Alfonso, and although they did not speak themselves, the position itself represented an attitude.

Would Her Royal Highness dare to kill them all? Of course Juana would not, not to mention that Her Royal Highness was not so stupid. It would be easy to kill these unarmed nobles, but what about after that, their relatives would stand firmly on the side of Prince Aldrich for revenge, and the hereditary nobles of the whole country would have a hostile attitude towards Her Royal Highness, and without the foundation of the country, Juana would not be able to gain a foothold at all.

Juana and Alfonso looked at each other, no one dared to speak, and the scene was a little cold. At this moment, no one noticed that the guard at the door seemed to have a 'big' box in his hand, and the guard quietly walked into the hall, and he whispered a few words in General Armitage's ear.

General Armitage strode towards Her Royal Highness with the big box in his hand, and along the way, he unceremoniously pushed away several nobles who were in the way. This 'barbaric' behavior of General Armitage was despised by the hereditary nobles who claimed to be 'civilized', and they could not accept 'such people' in their circles.

"What does General Armitage have to say?" Alfonso kept his title the same, he would never approve of such a 'commoner' being promoted to a nobleman. (The Treaty of Abraham explicitly stipulated that commoners could eventually be promoted to knighthood, and the offspring of knights could be promoted to knighthood.)

(PS: Knight is an honorary title, not considered a nobleman, the highest honor a commoner can receive in his life.) ）

General Armitage deliberately moved his muscles, the rattling sound made him look like a beast about to burst out and hurt people, and several nobles standing behind Alfonso all took a few small steps back after seeing General Armitage's actions.

"Boy, you're still a little capable. "General Armitage still showed the most basic respect for Alfonso Leon's face, it seems that the hereditary nobles are not all mixed wine bags and rice bags, and there are still some people among them who have not fallen into the prestige of their ancestors.

Alfonso Leone stared at the large box in Armitage's hand. 'What's that?'

Just as Alfonso Leon thought, the hereditary nobles behind him looked at the large box that seemed very obtrusive, and they knew that Armitage would never have done such a strange act without the permission of Her Royal Highness.

General Armitage didn't explain, but after getting the nod from Her Highness Juana, he tossed the box gently.

The large box, which seemed to be very abrupt, was thrown by General Armitage right in the middle of the hereditary aristocracy. Without hitting anyone, these sharp-eyed nobles were ready to evade the moment the big box was thrown over.

'What does Her Highness Juana mean?'

"What do you want to do, Your Royal Highness?" the nobles around the big box had their own thoughts, and none of them stepped forward, as if none of them wanted to be the first to eat crabs.

Her Royal Highness had laid down her sword, for she had no need to threaten. Juana made a gesture of please, and Alfonso León walked over to the big box that no one dared to touch.

'A bunch of old foxes. Alfonso Leon walked briskly towards the big box, and along the way he saw the playful expressions of the nobles, and he thought very highly of himself, and he also looked down on these fellows who only played tricks in secret, and they had long forgotten the glory of their ancestors.

"This is!" Alfonso Leon's eyes widened, he didn't expect Her Royal Highness to be so decisive, is this still the 'cowardly' Her Royal Highness who is rumored to be outside?

The three human heads were scattered in the box, which was actually very neat, but General Armitage's toss made their position a little messy.

The smell of blood spread, and many nobles covered their noses, and most of the nobles present with the three heads recognized that they were the original Count of Ourense, Viscount Lessa, and Baron Ferrol!

The nobles were furious, they once thought that Her Royal Highness would not dare, but it seemed that they were wrong, Her Royal Highness had really done it, and those nobles who were determined to disobey Juana's orders had turned into a headless corpse.

The death of the three nobles does not make these nobles feel frightened, they are more angry, if Her Royal Highness really wants war, then they will give Her Royal Highness war!

All the nobles present were silent, they looked at Her Royal Highness indifferently, this little girl was giving them a horse, every nobleman's heart was very blocked, if it was just like this, no one would be willing to give in. They could have sworn allegiance in front of the palace and then proceeded to their own careful thinking after returning to the fiefdom, and it was impossible for Her Royal Highness to be enemies of all the nobles in the north.

Juana looked at the expressionless nobles, and she knew in her heart that doing so would only provoke the nobles' hatred of her, and that killing alone would not solve the fundamental problem.

"Boom. The old duke, who had been silent for a long time, slammed his marshal's staff on the ground, and everyone's eyes were focused on this senator-level figure.

Juana walked back to her seat, but she did not sit down, and Her Royal Highness looked down on the hereditary nobles who did not really approve of her.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Her Royal Highness will be crowned in Sintra in six days' time, so please stay in Sintra for a few days. "The news thrown by the old duke is undoubtedly a bombshell, and no king in the history of the kingdom has ever been crowned outside the royal capital.

The nobles were outraged, Juana had broken too many conventions, she had violated the collective interests of the nobles. However, the nobles present were not fools, and after seeing the three heads, no one would express their dissatisfaction with Her Royal Highness. knew that this was house arrest in disguise, but the situation was stronger than people, and the nobles present had no choice but to endure it temporarily.

"Charles Navarre Bourbon, Grand Duke of Burgundy, envoy of the Reims Empire, will have the honour to attend the succession ceremony of Her Royal Highness. The old duke then threw out an even more shocking news, in fact, when the envoy of the Reims Empire, Charles Navarre Bourbon, who was in the high position of the duke, appeared, most of the nobles had already smelled something. But when these words were officially announced by the old duke, it still deeply shook the hearts of every nobleman present. They know what this means, it means that the Reims Empire has officially recognized the legitimate status of Her Royal Highness, and anyone with a discerning eye knows that the Reims Empire has sided with Her Royal Highness!

"Please give way. Alfonso León wanted to leave through the gate, Juana had achieved her purpose, and there was no need for the banquet to go on.

The soldiers remained on guard, their spears holding Alfonso León out.

"Let him out. Juana sat on the main seat, she felt a little tired, Juana made this series of decisions that the country has come to a crossroads of fate, she needs to be responsible for all kinds of situations that may be triggered, she needs to carry the whole country with the thin body of a young girl.

"Good means. Alfonso Leone left the venue in style, but his heart was tumbling, and Alfonso Leon's heart was not as calm as his expression.

All the people underestimated her. For the first time, Alfonso León felt the strength of the female heiress, which had a huge impact on his deeply ingrained beliefs. Alfonso León understood that Her Royal Highness was drawing a salary from the bottom of the kettle, and Juana was going to tie all the nobles present to her chariot, no, she was going to tie all the nobles who came to the succession ceremony to her chariot. And Her Royal Highness has already told them with practical actions that if they are unwilling, then there will be more upstarts to occupy the position that should belong to them.

Juana does not ask all the nobles to be on her side sincerely, she only hopes that these nobles will not 'cause trouble' for her in the short term, and Her Royal Highness needs to concentrate on dealing with the enemy from the south.

After this night, all the great nobles in the north are much more honest, they know that they have to make a choice, the princess's move is really ruthless, if their attitude continues to be ambiguous, the two camps will regard them as enemies, and they are always on guard against speculators from their side. (PS: There are also conflicts between the nobles of the various fiefdoms, and they need to guard against the knife behind their back.) ）

"Your Royal Highness, I wish us a happy cooperation. The brown-haired man appeared in front of Her Royal Highness out of place, and he picked up a goblet and was toasting to Juana.

"Who said I was going to work with you. Juana sat high on the main seat, and she deliberately emphasized the words.

"Your Highness, of course you need to cooperate with us. Jarvis drank it all, he was confident that he would be able to convince Her Highness.

"Oh, now is not the time to talk, come to my study at night. Her Royal Highness Juana remembered a young man who saw with her own eyes the anxious back of Yu Chen's departure.

"I obey your orders. Jarvis bowed slightly to Her Royal Highness, and he nodded to Navarra Charles Bourbon, the envoy of the Reims Empire.

"This kid is quite good at being a man. The Grand Duke of Burgundy looked the young man up and down, and unlike the rotten nobles, he saw in Jarvis a vigorous vigor, a naked thirst for power.

"I'll go down first. Her Royal Highness Juana pulled her skirt at the Duke of Burgundy, the envoy of the Reims Empire, and she trotted all the way to someone's room.
