Chapter 69: Fiefdom: Haotian City

His Majesty the Emperor's face sank suddenly, and he looked in the direction of the voice, his eyes were as sharp as an eagle, staring at the person who spoke: "Yang Xiong, what is your opinion?"

Yang Xiong was shocked in his heart, how many years had he not seen this kind of look in the eyes of His Majesty the Emperor? A cold feeling suddenly rose on his back, but it made the Jun family's power increase greatly, he would never be reconciled, so he had to bite the bullet and say: "Your Majesty is wise, Jun Gongzi is still young and not yet an adult, Your Majesty is so rewarded, I'm afraid it's ...... I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate, this is not in accordance with the etiquette law!"

"Doesn't it conform to the etiquette law?" The old emperor snorted in his nostrils, looked at Yang Xiong with a smile, and said indifferently: "Yang Xiong, have you eaten all the food in the dog's stomach for so many years? Which etiquette law in the empire stipulates that there is an age limit for knighthood fiefs!"

"This, this ......" Yang Xiong immediately turned his eyes for help to the prince, and the nobles below didn't dare to take a breath, now they can see that where is the banquet held today, it is clearly a gathering for this young man!

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's eyes were gloomy, he lowered his head slightly, he didn't look at Yang Xiong at all, and scolded him in his heart for being a fool, for the benefit of his family, he actually dared to disobey the emperor in front of so many nobles, isn't this that he is tired of being crooked?

However, although I hate it in my heart, I can't completely abandon Yang Xiong, after all, the Yang family is powerful, and I still need such a family to support me when I inherit the throne in the future.

"Father, the child has something to say. ”

The prince took a step forward and said respectfully.

"Hmm. His Majesty the Emperor snorted with obvious displeasure.

The crown prince glanced at Jun Wuxie, and then said calmly: "Father, the city of sin has always been under the jurisdiction of the second brother, with stable development and developed economy, and as one of the towns with the highest taxes in the empire, it is still an important strategic city, which is a military powerhouse, and it is not suitable as a fief to reward nobles. ”

His Royal Highness the Prince's words made many people nod secretly, over the years, it has been rumored that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Second Highness are not on good terms, and there are even rumors that His Royal Highness the Southern King has signs of rebellion, which has become more and more noisy in recent years. But judging from the performance of the prince in protecting the interests of his second brother today, those rumors are self-defeating!

And. The prince also has a point. Sin City serves as a military stronghold. It is indeed not suitable to be rewarded to nobles as fiefs. In fact. Most importantly. It's these aristocrats. There is hardly anyone who is not jealous of the innocent luck of Jun. You can get a fief like Sin City!

To know. Even if it is a western province of the Yang family's fiefdom. Every year, the land tax is created. It's not as high as Sin City, which is like a cornucopia. So many years. It has always been like a pearl embedded in the southern map of the empire. Sparkling. Dazzling and splendid!

So. This statement of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. It was immediately unanimously approved by almost all the nobles. These people represented the backbone of the empire. It is also impossible for His Majesty the Emperor to completely ignore their opinions.

It's just that. I announced it with such great interest. Then it was denied by almost all the locals. The old emperor's face rose with anger. He squinted his eyes and glanced around the gorgeously dressed nobles below. These are the upper class people who enjoy all the privileges of the Empire. None of them dared to look at the old king. Everywhere the eye looks. They all bowed their heads.

It's innocent. I don't care if I have a fief or not. And. Sin City is too noisy. He didn't like it either. It's just that the old emperor said in front of him that he wanted the monarch family to check and balance the second highness. Jun Wuxian has no way to refuse. Now I see that everyone is against it. Jun innocent heart. but there was more joy.

"Then you say. The Jun family is such a heroic tiger. Where should I be rewarded as a fief?" the old emperor's face calmed down. He looked at the prince quietly and asked.

The prince smiled slightly, and said unhurriedly: "This son of the Jun family really deserves to be rewarded, and he must be rewarded heavily! Otherwise, wouldn't it chill the hearts of the heroes, and if this kind of thing happens in the future, who else will dare to care!"

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said a few words impassionedly, and many people were even made to stay there by him, he was the one who raised objections, and he was the one who wanted to be rewarded, His Royal Highness the Prince...... What exactly do you want to do?

The old emperor's eyes narrowed, his face was expressionless, and when he looked carefully, the muscles of his face were somewhat stiff, and he said lightly: "Then what do you mean?"

"The meaning of the child, to reward the economically rich towns that are also in the south, Haotian City, to Jun Wuxian as a fief!"

As soon as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said this, the nobles present who were a little older were stunned for a moment, and then they turned their sympathetic eyes to Jun Wuxie, and they all said in their hearts, no wonder the prince said that just now, feelings, this is foreshadowing!

The astonishment in the old emperor's eyes flashed away, Haotian City is a peninsula city, the size of ten sin cities!

And the prince is right, it has always been a place of economic wealth, and there is a deep-sea port near the sea, which leads to the Zichuan Kingdom to the west and the other Blood Cloud Empire to the southeast by sea.

The northeast of Haotian City, adjacent to the Penzes Swamp, where there are many spirit beasts, and there is also a fairly large group of spirit beasts living in it.

Originally, Haotian City, as the southernmost city of the empire, was indeed a good place, both in terms of commercial and military status, it was only a little worse than Sin City, but it was precisely because of the war between the humans and the spirit beast race in the south that the value of Penzes City in people's hearts decreased rapidly!

There are hardly any people there except for the aborigines, and who wants to go to that kind of place now. The Spirit Beast Race has already entered the Sin City, so Haotian City, which is closer to the Penzes Swamp, will the day when it be sacked by the Spirit Beast Race will be far away?

The prince's vicious intentions are simply obvious, but aren't you a hero in the fight against the demons? Since you can resist the invasion of the demons once, then this time, what is there when you change to a spirit beast?

Fiefdom of Jun Wuxian in Haotian City is also equivalent to nailing a nail in Li Wutong's territory!

Just like Li Wutong knows the prince, the prince also knows his brother's character very well. As the saying goes, on the side of the couch, how can you allow others to snore?

Not to mention that the 100,000 troops of the Southern King are stationed near the Penzes Swamp all the year round, and Haotian City has always played the important role of supplying the army! For Li Wutong, its significance is even higher than that of Sin City!

The prince's move is simply equivalent to a slash in Li Wutong's heart!

The old emperor's eyes seemed to be more and more cloudy, and when he glanced at the prince, he was shocked in his heart, as if... Some underestimated this eldest son, that is, he bought the hearts of the people and stimulated the king of the south, and in the same way, he did not offend the Jun family!

The place is a good place, as long as you have the ability, you can also make a lot of money!

"Haotian City...... Oh, hehe, what a good place!" The old emperor stretched out his hand and patted his mouth: "Then it's decided......! Haotian City! Okay, the next time is your carnival time!" As he spoke, the old emperor walked towards the palace under the support of a group of people, his body was a little rickety.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince approached Jun Wuxian with a gentle smile on his face: "Viscount Jun Wuxie, congratulations!"

At this time, Yang Xiong also had irrepressible joy on his face, with a sincere smile on his face: "Viscount Jun Wuxie, yes, it's really good! Haha, the general of the Jun family, is really promising, he is still a nobleman with a fief before he is a minor! Congratulations!"

"Old thief, you don't have to be coy. Jun Wuxian had a faint smile on his face and whispered to Yang Xiong.

Yang Xiong's face changed, but then he returned to normal, and said with an indifferent smile: "I don't know whether to live or die, waiting for your fiefdom, be drowned by spirit beasts!"

"That's my business, don't bother with you old guy, if you have that time, let's find more doctors for your son, so as not to have no queen, haha." After Jun Wuxian finished speaking, with a bright smile on his face, he ignored Yang Xiong, who was iron-faced, walked towards Jun Bing'er, and then said gently: "Let's go, let's go home!"
