Hercules was clearly unhappy with Frank as well, so he simply stabbed him. www.biquge.info After he raised the name of the old mage, everyone present suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. The emperor came directly, "Ha, it turned out that the teacher was out of the horse, no wonder the Grand Duke of Shiratori succumbed? Not to mention the Grand Duke of Shiratori, even I, I am often blackmailed by the teacher to the point of dying or living!"

"Ahaha!" everyone burst out laughing. In fact, all of them know that what the emperor said is absolutely true, the old mage is indeed very capable of extortion, if anyone provokes him, he must be knocked and vomit blood!

"It's just a pity, the teacher's appetite is still too small, why don't you ask for more?" The emperor said somewhat dissatisfied: "If his old man had told me earlier, I would have promised to mobilize at least 100,000 elite soldiers to the border of the Duchy of White Bird to cheer him on! If Grand Duke Shiratori is slightly dissatisfied, I will destroy him by the way! I even dare to rob our people, I am really impatient!"

"Yes, yes, the teacher is indeed a little anxious this time!" Frank also followed: "If you had discussed it with Your Majesty earlier, there would definitely be more than two cities, and when the time comes, Your Majesty can also divide one!"

When this guy said this, he was clearly accusing the old mage of not thinking about the emperor in this matter, and Frank's intention was nothing more than to provoke the relationship between the old mage and the emperor.

Everyone can see this, and the fat man was so angry that he wanted to shoot Frank to death, but now it is difficult to do it in public, so he can only laugh and explain to the old mage: "Your Majesty, you know, the ancestor has always been reluctant to trouble others, maybe it is because of this that he did not inform Your Majesty." ”

"Am I someone else?" said the Emperor with a slight dissatisfaction.

Obviously, at Frank's instigation, he also developed a trace of resentment towards the old mage. You know, the income of a city is very huge, although those two cities nominally belong to the state, and he also has 10% of the right to collect taxes as the emperor, but after all, 90% of the profits go to the Stephen and Hercules families. If he had gotten the news earlier and participated in it, how could he have obtained a city as an emperor, and then it would be 100% of the benefits, which is much stronger than now!

Although the fat man is cunning, he doesn't know what to say at this time. Fortunately, Hercules, who is now known as a wise man, was on his side, and when he saw that the fat man was speechless, he hurriedly helped: "Your Majesty, I think it's not that the teacher doesn't want to inform you, but that the situation was urgent at that time, and it was too late!"

"Oh, how do you know?" said the Emperor curiously.

"Your Majesty, you also know that the dragon leader has recently hoarded a large army on the border of the Duchy of White Bird, which is obviously related to this incident. And the dragon collar and the white bird principality have always been in the same vein, so the purpose of the dragon collar this time is very debatable. But no matter what, the attitude of the dragon leader is definitely towards the Duchy of White Birds. In this case, the teacher is likely to take a quick approach, first forcing the Grand Duke Shiratori to compensate for these two cities, and then he is not afraid of the intervention of the dragon leader. Hercules then said, "Therefore, it is likely that the situation was so urgent that the teacher did not have time to report to you before making a decision. Please also ask Your Majesty to be aware and not to be deceived by villains. ”

Hercules is almost a naked name-calling, where can Frank still sit still, angrily pointing at Hercules and asking, "Your Excellency Hercules, who do you say is the villain?"

"I just mean, you~" Hercules unceremoniously pointed at Frank's nose and scolded: "The teacher is so old, he has worked hard to fight thousands of miles, running for His Majesty, opening up territory for the kingdom, not only do you not talk about his merits, but you are here to sow discord between the teacher and Your Majesty! You are not a villain, who is a villain?"

"You said it lightly, he was busy with it, not for his own benefit?When did you put Your Majesty in your eyes?, I have forgotten, you Hercules family also benefited, no wonder you spoke for him so much!" Frank immediately sneered.

"I also understand, you must have slandered the teacher because you didn't get any benefits, a typical villain!" Hercules said immediately and unceremoniously.

"Nonsense, I'm thinking about your majesty!" Frank hurriedly argued.

"You just said nonsense, Your Majesty got two cities, not only became the first person in the kingdom to open up territory in a hundred years, but also received hundreds of thousands of taxes every year. These are not all the merits of the teacher!" Hercules scolded: "You villain, you don't have the ability to make meritorious contributions to the country, but you are still slandering the meritorious heroes here, which is really despicable!"

"You~" Frank is the opponent of the wise Hercules? You know, Hercules was in charge of diplomacy when he was young, and he once represented the griffin kingdom in the world. The one with a powerful mouth has never suffered a loss all over the mainland. Frank was speechless after a few rounds. Not only did he lose face, but the people around him also showed disdain for him. After all, what he did today was indeed a bit boring. After all, the old mage has just made a great achievement, and it is too late to praise him, so how can he take the opportunity to slander it? Even the unspoken rules in the aristocratic circle do not allow such a thing to happen.

Fortunately, at this time, the emperor also understood, and casually stopped the two of them from scolding, and then said directly: "The teacher has made meritorious service to the country this time, and he should be rewarded heavily, oh, but what is the reward?" The emperor then asked everyone with a wry smile.

When everyone heard this, they were all stunned. You know, the old mage's current status in the griffon kingdom has reached a peak. In terms of titles, people are hereditary first-class dukes, and then there is the prince, and people who are not related to the royal family must not be sealed. In terms of money, there is nothing to say, I am afraid that in the entire griffon empire, except for the emperor, he is the richest.

The rest of the reward is to seal the land and children. The Stephen family already had a large territory, and now they have obtained a large piece of rich land, and if it is sealed again, Huang Yanjing will not be at ease, for fear that their family will rebel! As for the title of princess, it is also nonsense, there are only three people in the Stephen family, except for the old mage, the fat man also inherited the title of first-class grand duke after taking over the position of the patriarch of the family. The only kid who is an old evil, and now he is also an earl. And then he became a duke.

You know, the old evil is only 16 years old! It's fine if it's the inherited duke, but if it's promoted because of merit, it's too much. Although the old evil marquis's previous title was basically earned by the old mage when he was very young, the earl's title was earned by saving the elven prince Arthas himself. And only a few months have passed since the last incident, and if this is sealed again immediately, no one will frown. That's why the emperor was a little embarrassed.

Just when everyone didn't know what to do, Hercules was worthy of the name of a wise man, and first stood up and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the teacher is actually a person who doesn't love fame and fortune, and this time he just took care of it secretly and didn't come forward himself, so you don't need to use the official name to reward, as long as you write a letter of thanks yourself!"

"Ah, yes, that's true!" the emperor nodded in realization, but he immediately frowned again, "But if this is the case, the credit falls on those two little ones, how can I reward them?"

"Hehe, this is simple!" Hercules smiled: "Little Girl and Little Stephen are not people who value fame and fortune, and they don't need the usual rewards, but there is one thing that may need His Majesty's help!"

"Oh, you say, as long as I can, I will help you!" the emperor immediately laughed.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Hercules then smiled and said, "Here's the thing, although in the elven kingdom, they have already married once, but that marriage is really a bit ridiculous!"

When he said this, Hercules couldn't help but blush in embarrassment. Isn't it ridiculous to say in my heart? My daughter was robbed by someone else at the wedding, what is this called?

"Haha!" the Emperor and the others couldn't help but laugh when they heard about the event.

"I see, you want to marry them again here, right?" said the Emperor with a smile at once.

"Exactly!" Hercules then laughed, "If Your Majesty can come forward to be a witness in person, it will be the best reward for them!"

"Haha, of course no problem! I promise you!" The emperor immediately smiled happily: "However, as a reward, it is not enough to have only one witness, I will authorize them to hold a wedding in the palace!

In fact, the emperor also saw that the reason why Hercules asked for this was just to give him a step down. The identity of a witness, neither money nor gifts, can also receive red envelopes, even if there is no such thing, the emperor will definitely agree. Therefore, he was also very moved by Hercules's considerate behavior, so he offered to hold a wedding for them in the palace and have the state pay for it.

You must know that a wedding is only tens of thousands of gold coins to survive, and compared to rewards such as knighthoods and fiefdoms, this amount of money is nothing at all. In addition, the benefits obtained this time are too great, a tax of more than 100,000 yuan a year, and more than 1 million yuan in ten years, in the face of such a rich gift, the emperor is embarrassed to be too stingy, so it is rare to be generous once.
