Amy's face was covered in dust, her eyes were bloodshot, and she looked exhausted, but she didn't seem to cry all the way.

But now, hearing Leon say this, Amy gradually lowered her head, and a tear fell from her eyes to the ground: "I only want to be a knight, a knight like Countess Valera." ”

She has indeed become a strong knight.

"Amy, originally I sealed off Lion City and asked Risa Dilan to call you back, just so that you could avenge Aunt Filina with your own hands."

Li Ang said softly, this was indeed his original intention.

When he first saw Lady Filina fall from the building, Leon asked the guards to blockade the Lion City for revenge - neither the prophet nor the king were the enemies who killed Filina, and he didn't want anyone to let anyone go.

Risa Dilan was asked to bring Filina to Godric, mainly to prevent the Three Prophets from desecrating Filina's body.

It's just that he didn't expect the three prophets to disappear inexplicably.

"But now...... The Prophet is gone, the King is dead, but their enemies are not the only ones - the Lion Knights have slaughtered the Raven Village, your brother Andrew's whereabouts are unknown, the heretics who framed you are still rampant, and the conspirators who are with the heretics are still alive and well. You can't just be a princess knight until you kill them, Amy. ”

Leon reached out and wiped away the tears from Amy's face: "You can only sit on the Silver Throne, or our enemies will sit on it." ”

He's talking about 'our' enemies.

“…… But Ulrique has a daughter, and the little princess should be the queen......"

Amy was silent for a moment and looked up at Leon, "She should be in Barranley." ”

"But she's not the king's daughter......"

Leon shook his head slowly: "Moreover, she has been controlled by the Duke of Brennus, if nothing else, Brennus and his son Malbert are in the same league as heretics." ”

Amy was stunned, then closed her eyes weakly and sighed in resignation.

"How's your father?"

Leon also sighed and asked about Godric.

"My father swore to avenge my mother, and he said much as you said - he was going to find Andrew, he was going to destroy the heretics in the Raven Village, and he was going to kill the Lion Knights...... So he wanted to stay in the crow village to hold off the enemy, and he didn't want those guys to escape. ”

Amy replied, "He asked me to come to Lion City and let me do what you want." ”

This is inevitable, seeing Filina's body, then Godric will definitely do the same - since Leon will solve the troubles of Lion City, then Godric will naturally have to deal with the enemies of Fox Town and Raven Village.

Godric knew that since Leon would call Amy to Lion City, it meant that Leon was sure to control Lion City, and Amy's safety was guaranteed.

Then, Godric will be able to let go of killing people without any worries.

"So...... We've got to give him enough support as fast as we can, Amy, and we'll have to go to the throne room tomorrow morning. ”

Leon nodded—let Amy take charge of the country, and then quickly declare the Lion Knights illegal, and then all the problems would be solved.

Godric is not short of troops now, although his Red Arrow longbowmen are not strong, but the cost of formation is very low, and there are already seven or eight hundred people at the moment. Coupled with the fact that Klose brought the Silver Hand to help in the battle, and Sir Roland would also rush from the Dark Falcon Castle to Foxtown to deal with the heretics, it is estimated that it is almost here.

As long as Godric is free of constraints and relieve his worries, it is the best support.

"Li Ang, you once said that you want to unify the Pande Continent, and you want to take in more power for your safety...... So, do you want to be the king of the Lion Kingdom? ”

Amy asked suddenly.

"I don't want to."

Leon shook his head slightly.

Amy raised her head and looked at Leon in surprise: "Don't want to?" ”

Leon's expression was very serious, he looked at the tired Amy, took Amy into his arms, and patted her thin back: "Yes, I don't want to." If it were possible, I would prefer Aunt Filina to live...... However, we must protect ourselves and those who care about us. Therefore, the silver throne of the Lion Kingdom cannot fall into the hands of outsiders. ”

"But I don't want to ...... either"

Amy rested her head on Leon's shoulder, hugged Leon, and closed her eyes to rest.

Leon took her to the steps of the House of Lords and leaned her on his shoulder.

"Let's go......"

After a few minutes, Amy looked up again, reached out to wipe the tears from her face, and stood up: "Tell me what to do." ”

At this moment, she has re-established herself as the determined princess knight.

…………

The next day, early in the morning.

Throne Room.

King Ulrique's coffin rests in front of the Silver Throne.

Amy, dressed in a white cloak, stood in front of the coffin to preside over Ulrik's funeral.

This is where only the heir to the king is qualified to stand.

And at this moment, in the Lion City, only Amy has such qualifications.

Just yesterday, the same afternoon that Amy had just arrived in the Lion City, Leon ordered all the nobles in the Lion City to be summoned to the throne room this morning to say goodbye to the king's body.

Normally, after the death of a king, the body will be kept for at least half a month, this is to wait for the arrival of the local lords, and also to determine the successor of the king during this period.

After the heir is determined, the lords will swear allegiance to the next king in front of the body of the previous king before the funeral ceremony.

When a king dies and no heir is appointed, the next king is usually chosen by the nobles, but in most cases it is determined by the order of succession - no matter who is chosen, the authority goes to the most powerful lord.

Unless an heir is strong and strong, no one dares to mess with him.

But Leon didn't intend to give the nobles a choice.

He told the nobles of the Lion City straightforwardly that Amy was now the only heir.

Moreover, he had the cavalry troops brought back by Amy besiege the palace.

The griffon-claw women even entered the throne room, replacing the palace guards.

At the same time, Leon's Noldor Guard still held on to the only main gate that could be passed, and no one would want to leave the Lion City unless Leon agreed, and no one else could even get the news of the king's death.

Leon himself entered the throne hall with a sword and armor pierced and fully armed.

This morning, all the nobles in the Lion City can realize that Amy is now the heir of the 'strong and strong horse that no one dares to mess with', and if his fist is not as big as Leon and Amy combined, then it is best not to say anything......

But skepticism is still there, and it must be.

"Lord Leon, I don't doubt the truth of what you said, but I wonder why the city gates are still blocked?"

The one who spoke out was a middle-aged aristocrat, dressed in a bachelor's gown—he was the one who succeeded Igor after his death and the one who should be the most skeptical, as he was responsible for documenting the history of the kingdom.

Leon nodded at him very kindly: "I can let the people of the Lion Knights tell you about this......"

As he spoke, he waved his hand.

Several lion knights, shackled, were escorted into the throne room by a group of female soldiers.

"They are the knights of the Lion Knights, the left-behind personnel of the Lion City garrison."

Li Ang pestle his sword and glanced coldly at the lion knights: "At the same time, it is also the internal response of the traitor Malbert who was planted in the Lion City, or the accomplice of the conspiracy of treason with Brenus!" ”

"You're lying! This is a planting! ”

A lion knight roared angrily.

"Shut them up, bring Sersi up......"

Li Ang ignored him at all, and commanded the female soldiers on his own, bringing the fat cook lady of the House of Nobles who was in charge of exterminating the mouth to the throne hall.

"Sersi, under the watchful eyes of the goddess Unomea and the king, speak of all that you have done. This is the funeral of His Majesty the King, His Royal Highness Amy will not kill people at this time, tell the truth and you can live. ”

Li Ang gave the cook a real way to live.

Sersi nodded and knelt in the center of the hall: "I was arranged by the Duke of Brenus to ...... in the House of Nobles"

The cook explained Brennus's various orders to her in public, including killing the former queen's maid, concealing the little princess's background, monitoring the king's movements, etc., as well as the queen's adultery with Brennus and the beginning and end of the little princess being picked up by Brennus - especially the adulterous part, which is extremely detailed.

"Now you understand why I'm locking down Lion City? Because the Lion Knights can't be trusted! Once a royal order, now a traitor! ”

Leon sneered and said, "In order to prevent these rebellious dogs of the Lion Knights from jumping off the wall in a hurry, I must be careful!" ”

"What this woman said...... Is it all true? Princess Denise is the ...... of Brenus and the Queen"

Some of the nobles expressed some suspicions that Dynice was the name of Ulrik's youngest daughter.

But most people already believed it—Sersi told the brocade between Brenus and the queen in great detail, and many of the older nobles knew it wouldn't be false when they heard it.

Moreover, two of the gagged lion knights were already dead.

Sersi just didn't mention Elian, everything else was true, and when combined with some orders within the Lion Knights, several of the Lion Knights already knew that there was something wrong with Brenus.

There will always be people with poor psychological quality, and those two whose faces have changed greatly, if nothing else, are the people who participated in taking the little princess Dénice out of the city and sending her to Cragy Rock Bay.

"If you don't think Sersi's confession is credible, then you can keep your skepticism alive - but those who express skepticism, I must first investigate whether you have anything to do with the rebellion of Brennus, in order to ascertain your public intentions, and hope you will understand......"

Li Ang said lightly, looking very generous.

Indeed, it is doubtful, at least you have to make sure that you have nothing to do with rebellion, that you are suspicious out of public conscience.

However, who would dare to let Leon 'investigate' at this time?

As a result, there was no doubt in the entire throne hall, and all the nobles unanimously said that the Lion Knights were rebellious, and they must be recognized as an illegal knight order, and an army should be sent to exterminate them!

"After ensuring the safety of the Lion City, I will be responsible for chasing down the Lion Knights...... In fact, my troops are now on the hunt for the Lion Knights. Now, do you still have questions? ”

Of course, there will be no problem, this scholar has been 'convinced' by Li Ang the night before, and today he is just cooperating with Li Ang.

Leon selflessly stated that he would be responsible for cleaning up the rebellion, which really gave the nobles more trust.

After all, even this kind of deadly work, what Marshal Li Ang said should indeed be the truth, and it must not be - even the Lion Knights are confident to exterminate it, so who dares to oppose him at this time?

In fact, even if Leon planned to refer to the deer as a horse, these nobles would have to recognize it.

It's just that Leon and Amy still used a relatively gentle way, and they really didn't kill anyone.

So, under the watchful eyes of the goddess Yunomia and the former king, Amy was unanimously voted by the nobles to become the princess of the prison country.

- The little princess is regarded as the rebellious daughter of Brennus, Andrew is missing, and now there is no other heir to the throne except Amy, and it must be a unanimous vote.

Of course, Amy is not the queen at this time, but only temporarily supervises the country.

For fifteen days, she could only stand in front of the Silver Throne and could not sit down.

After half a month, the lords from all over the country rushed over after receiving the news of the king's death, and the big lords would crown her together.

Merely......

The lords who can receive the news first are the ones that Leon is willing to let him receive the news.

For example, Baron Heriward, Lord of Misty Castle, Baron Leofrick, Lord of Fort Shield, Lord Grandlon, Lord of Fletcher, Charles, ......

Anyway, it's all their own people.

Moreover, the Lion Knights have been designated as rebels, Brenus has become the leader of the rebels, and after half a month, Leon and Amy will no longer be polite to talk to people.

Because Amy's first order after being imprisoned was to declare war on Fieldsway!

This must be done, because Ulrike died at the hands of the Fieldswie, and this kind of national enmity must be declared at war, and it can easily inspire the determination of the same enemy at home.

And Leon, because of the upcoming war, is in full charge of all the military affairs of the Lion Kingdom.

It was Amy who held the funeral for the late King Ulrique, and it was also Amy who started the war of revenge for Ulrique, and the marshal Leon also explicitly supported Amy.

Such an heir is already difficult to shake.

At the same time, when it was about to face the revenge war with Fieldsway, as long as it was a nobleman out of public will, no one would mention anything like another king.

Because this kind of war to avenge the former king is different from ordinary conquest, at this time, to interfere with the battle, that is, it is clearly against the entire Lion Realm.

Only selfish and stupid people would cause trouble at this time, and most likely Brennus's people.

This was the main reason why Leon let Inna go.

In order to simplify complicated things, and also to kidnap all the neutral nobles, and even the smarter enemies.

Letting Ulrique's killer escape alive back to Fields is both a reason to start a national war and an easy way to identify those with ulterior motives.

It's rare for a fool to mess around at such a time, and during the war, Leon could have done things by military law – that is, he could kill without trial.

At the same time, Amy promises that whoever can avenge the king in the war against Fieldway will become the Duke of Lion Lake.

As for Brennus, Amy also made it clear that whoever can take out the rebel Brennus and recover Cragy Rock Cove will become the Duke of Craging Rock.

The goal, the future, and the opportunity to rise are all clearly placed in front of the nobles of the Lion Kingdom.
