"No, Your Majesty, you can't take him with you!"

Ian took a step forward in a bit of a gaffe, he even forgot how terrible Chaman Rumba was, unaware that the man in front of him was the supreme ruler of the entire kingdom.

"You can't take Prince Tails with you!"

Count Nazaire frowned slightly, and whispered to Lisbane beside him, "Strange. ”

"Yes," the regent of Lisbane also showed a puzzled look in solemnity: "Once that hostage prince falls into the hands of the king, the situation will be reversed, but ......"

"Shrewd and ruthless as Rumba, why does he think that our Longxiao City will bow to the king's authority obediently and obediently hand over the hostages?"

"Unless," Count Nazaire narrowed his eyes, "he has the handle that we have to compromise?"

No one noticed that Lisbane's breath was slightly stagnant.

"Or," Nazaire pondered, not noticing his old rival's gaffe, "he thinks that Prince Tails' whereabouts have nothing to do with the overall situation, so he casually remarks." ”

This time, Lisbane did not respond to him.

In the hall, King Chaman squinted at a panicked Ian, as if he were looking at a clown.

"Hmph. ”

"Prince Tails is concerned about the future of the two great powers of the Western Continent," King Chaman's eyes seemed to be frozen with winter snow, "If you want to use him as a bargaining chip to negotiate directly with the Fuxing Palace, then the king of a country should come forward." ”

The king turned around and faced the whole hall, and his voice was loud: "Don't you think so?"

Ian took a deep breath and adjusted himself.

No one spoke up.

Everyone looked at King Chaman with heavy faces.

Tails' mind raced, sorting through the clues in his head.

The prince knew that the turmoil he was facing, whether it was the envoy of Qiyuan City or the marriage of the female archduchess, seemed to take place in Longxiao City, but the actual key was actually focused on the struggle between King Chaman, the Black Sand Leader in the south, and his subordinate vassals.

As Putile explains, it all started with King Chaman's new edict on the division of the nobility: the ambitions of the Grand Duke of Black Sand caused a backlash from his vassals.

King Chaman also revealed his biggest flaw while being anxious, and Qiyuan City took advantage of the situation to pursue the fallen stones.

The two sides of the board enter the game and start a game of gradual raising.

In the first round, external forces led by Qiyuan City took the lead: the Grand Dukes such as Ronnie supported and instigated a number of vassals under the Rumba family behind the scenes, so that they had the confidence to continue to resist the king's decrees, trying to send the already notorious king of family murder into the abyss of discrediting his prestige and betraying his relatives.

In the second round, the counterattack that began with the Black Sand Collar: the strange accident of the Freedom Alliance brought about a fire in the backyard of the Ronnie family, making the Black Sand Collar families who are determined to "oppose tyranny" no longer so confident, who dares to expect the Grand Duke Ronnie, who is in the middle of a long war, to free up his hands and fulfill his promise to send troops to support them in case of emergency?

In the third round of this game, Qiyuan City faced the response of King Chaman and turned over the next card: under the mediation of Ian Ronnie, Longxiao City, which had the heaviest weight in the kingdom but had been weakened for six years due to internal discord, finally reached an agreement. The princes of Longxiao City gathered under the banner of the female archduke, promising to use their strong forces to conquer the west to solve the worries of Qiyuan City, and in this way, they made a gesture to join the list against the king and ensure that the struggle of the ministers of the Black Sand Domain continued.

After Long Xiaocheng made a statement, the scales returned to the strategy of Tails, Selma, and Ian in favor of Qiyuan City, which was at this step.

Tails silently looked at the king facing the hall, looking at the quiet vassals in the hall, and felt that his might was growing stronger day by day.

Just like King Nunn back then.

"Your Majesty!"

Ian, after all, was the Viscount of a city, and he adjusted his emotions and spoke decisively and firmly.

"Negotiation with the Kingdom of the Stars...... We'll do it ourselves," Viscount Nasty Devil, who had just arrived in Longxiao City but was already famous, said coldly, "The war of the Freedom Alliance is the same, we don't need the Black Sand Collar to interfere. ”

"You don't need the king's help. ”

King Chaman didn't answer, he didn't even glance back at Ian.

For the first time, Earl Curtson, who had been most disgusted with Ian, also spoke unceremoniously at this time, as if echoing Ian's words.

I only heard Curtson sarcastically say: "You better take care of your own backyard, the 'Majesty' of the Black Sand Collar heard that the Earl of Mende in Songhai Town has almost posted a notice condemning the king to the Sentry Collar." ”

He snorted softly, "We can't count on a king who can't even govern his own territory. ”

Obviously, the sarcastic remarks about the instability within the Black Sand Collar had helped: Viscount Kambida, who was behind King Chaman, couldn't help but frown fiercely when he heard this.

King Chaman's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"Your Majesty. ”

Thelma, who hadn't spoken for a long time, had a tense face, unable to hide the tension in her heart.

"Those who have a vendetta with the Freedom Alliance are Longxiao City and Qiyuan City after all," the Archduchess said seriously, "This is a battle that only belongs to the Walton family and the Ronnie family. ”

"For the sake of Exeter's victory, it stands to reason that Prince Tails will play a greater role in Qiyuan City than in Black Sand City. ”

Tails nodded slightly, but his eyes darkened.

That's a good point, Thelma.

But the last thing King Chaman needs at the moment is probably the reason of "being reasonable and reasonable".

The king stood still for a few seconds, as if to savor the air of this moment.

He slowly turned around, showing half of his face to the angry Curtson and Ian, who were on the verge of archenemy, and then looked at the Grand Duchess and nodded to Tails.

"You really like this boy, don't you?"

In the quiet hall, King Chaman's pupils shrank, and he let out a rather uneasy voice: "Are you counting on him to force the stars back?"

In the face of the king's cross-examination, Ian had to bite the bullet and salute:

"This is the internal affairs of Qiyuan City. ”

"It's not about you. ”

Listening to the crowd fighting for himself in the field, Tails couldn't help but sigh softly: whether it was himself or Selma, what they were facing now was an unexpected accident.

It can also be said that it is the fourth round of the chess game:

The Xingchen army that suddenly entered the game made the clear military strength comparison erratic again, shaking the original overwhelming advantage of Qiyuan City's side;

Xingchen's army is a threat that cannot be ignored in the battle of the Freedom Alliance, and their attitude determines how much trouble the Freedom Alliance can bring to Qiyuan City.

This put Tails on the cusp.

Once Tails arrives in the Black Sand Territory, it means that the bargaining chips to negotiate with the stars and the initiative in the western war situation have fallen into the hands of the king, which means that the Black Sand Territory has eaten Qiyuan City to death In the face of the undoubted defeat of the Ronnie family behind the scenes, the skeptical Black Sand Territory vassals will lose confidence and hope and give up resistance to the king.

The plan set up by Qiyuan City against King Chaman, trying to make him ruined, basically failed.

But what's worse is that because of Tails' departure, the prince couldn't help but sigh and sigh that the relationship between the stubborn female archduke and the vassals had reappeared, and it made Longxiao City, which was originally expected to send troops, return to a state of indecision.

So he couldn't sit back and watch any longer.

Tails looked at King Chaman, who was not supposed to be standing here, and thought with a heavy heart: he had to take the last hole card.

A costly, dangerous hole card.

"Twenty years ago, however, His Majesty Nunn set out to conquer the Freedom League in the name of the whole of Exeter," Charman sighed, "Now that the Freedom Alliance has changed again, as his successor and nephew, I can't sit idly by." ”

When the vassals of Longxiao City heard the name of His Majesty Nunn, they looked at King Chaman's face and became more and more unkind.

"Why did the Liberal League inexplicably change at this time......"

Count Linne's face was indifferent, and he continued to exert his ability to speak sharply: "Just like eighteen years ago, your father, the former Grand Duke of Black Sands, inexplicably lost his life in the midst of the guards, under your care, at the hands of the defeated soldiers of a few stars. ”

"Don't you count in your own heart?"

"The king of the murder of relatives without a bottom line?"

At that moment, the stubble on King Chaman's face trembled slightly.

Listening to Count Linne's visibly vicious hints, a dark sneer rang out in the hall.

Kambida and Croahi, who were on the king's side, turned cold and were about to step forward to speak, but were stopped by Chaman's gesture.

Tails silently looked at King Chaman, who was silent.

Ever since this man was given the reputation of "the murderer of relatives", especially after his coronation, whether it was a noble family or a reckless people, the whole kingdom has never stopped talking about him, whether it is really true, or pure malicious slander, rumors and slander.

Exter's Killer.

The King of Parent-Killing, Chaman I.

This name, which will truly accompany him throughout his life, will even be written in the history books, followed by Chaman to the grave, and passed on all the way to future generations.

But even so, the man ......

Tails looked at Lombard's calm and calm eyes, and the vigilance and fear in his heart deepened again.

"Madam is very clear, and we mean it very clearly. ”

"It's just a local conflict," said Count Kierkegaard's gaze, "We didn't call you, Your Majesty." ”

"Less self-inflicted. ”

King Chaman's brow twitched slightly, and he nodded, silent.

With the three Counts of Dragons joining forces with the Grand Duchess and Ian, the King seemed to have nothing to say for a while.

But Tails sighed, he knew if Rumba was such an easy person to deal with......

Then he wouldn't be here now.

Ian raised an eyebrow and seemed to regain some confidence: "Now, Your Majesty, if you don't have anything else to do......"

King Chaman turned his head sharply, a pair of cold eyes staring at Ian.

Ian was startled, and the words of the heir of Qiyuan City seemed to be choked for a moment, and he didn't continue.

I saw His Majesty the King sneering and shaking his head.

"Local conflicts?"

The king looked up slightly, and Tails noticed that the dark red gem in the center of his crown was faintly reflected.

Reflects the light throughout the hall.

"But the stars have intervened, haven't they?"

The king said softly, "So, I'll check again......"

"King Kessel seems to have a lot to say about the Free Alliance, so he sent an army to the Free League?"

I saw him slowly turn his head and look at the Prince of Stars again:

"Tails?"

"Is that so?"

Everyone's faces changed.

Tails took a deep breath.

Once again, all eyes of the audience were focused on the star guests.

Many figured out something and looked nervously at the prince.

Among them, Ian and Selma and Nicolai are especially important.

But in the face of Ian's anxious gaze, Thelma's puzzled eyes, and the angry color of the Meteorite, Tails looked as usual.

The prince did not even fluctuate in his eyes, and calmly spoke, as if in a trance, and spat out the only word:

"Yes. ”

As soon as these words came out, Ian's expression changed first.

"Tails," Viscount Windy City of Qiyuan City breathed heavily, and said in disbelief, "Are you, are you really...... Really on his side?"

Ian looked bitterly and anxiously at the prince of the stars.

How is this possible?

Tails didn't speak.

Ian seemed unwilling, and his facial muscles twitched violently a few times.

In the next second, Ian swooped forward and grabbed Tails' shirt!

Waiter and Rolf, who had been prepared, both grabbed up and stood in front of Tails.

Ian was about to step forward, but Monty behind him just waved his hand and firmly clasped his shoulder.

"Calm down, Ian. The Death Crow said coldly.

Ian, who couldn't take a step further, took a few sharp breaths, and then calmed down, he unceremoniously shook off Monty's hand, gritted his teeth, and said angrily:

"Answer me, Tails!"

Tails closed his eyes and sighed.

The whole hall watched in silence.

"I've always stood by you, Ian," the prince said to himself, as if he hadn't seen Ian's half-reprimanded, half-surprised look, "don't you think it's best to leave this matter to His Majesty Chaman, to the king to whom you are all in allegiance?"

Listening to Tails' words, many people frowned.

Ian looked at Tails in a daze, and shook his head in pain: "You...... You ......"

Tails didn't answer, his face was unwavering, as if he had lost the ability to change his expression.

He just silently stared at the air in front of him.

At that moment, even Selma slowly lowered her head, her eyes full of amazement.

"It couldn't be clearer," Nazaire whispered to Lisbane with a cold gaze, "we took this hostage, but he was playing with outsiders and applauding." ”

Lisban looked at Tails from afar and sighed slowly.

So, this prince is really the king's ally?

Is...... Irony.

King Chaman laughed, and his voice echoed through the hall again:

"So, that's the action of the state, it's no longer a local conflict!"

"For the sake of the entire Dragon Nation, the Disrespectful actions of the Freedom Alliance will not be let go lightly," the King snorted coldly, no longer looking at Tails and the soulless Ian, "This is not only the interests of Qiyuan City, nor is it just the face of Longxiao City. ”

With a smile of both majesty and irony, he waved his arms boldly at the ugly nobles in the hall like a general with a chance of victory.

"That's my answer to you, and to your father, Tails, and I'm going to act. ”

King Chaman's voice was soft, but it carried weight.

Tails closed his eyes and quickly opened, still without a trace of waves: "Good." ”

As if Charman wasn't talking about the country behind him.

King Chaman laughed again.

He is usually stingy with a smile, as if he wants to use half of his smile in this life today.

He paced in the direction of the Grand Duchess, and said slowly:

"Then, as the co-king of all the territory of Exeter, I hereby declare"

His words once again lifted the hearts of many nobles: what was he going to do?

And the king did not "disappoint" people.

"For the sake of stabilizing the situation of the Free Alliance, to deter our potential enemies, and for the sake of the enduring friendship between the Rumba and the Ronnies," said King Chaman, with pleasure and confidence, in an unquestioning voice:

"Black Sand Leader, I will send reinforcements to Qiyuan City to deal with the Freedom Alliance!"

As soon as the words fell, an exclamation suddenly sounded in the hall!

Thelma looked at her regent in bewilderment, but Lisban only had a bitter look on her face and her lips tightened.

Many of the vassals looked at each other in bewilderment, and there was a lot of discussion, but none of them understood King Chaman's actions.

"Reinforcements, from the Black Sand to Qiyuan City?" muttered Ian.

Ian Ronnie, who had already been devastated by Tails' unexpected betrayal, was staring blankly at King Chaman, his mind in turmoil.

He, what is he doing here?

Emulate Longxiao City and earn fame with justice?

No, what other reputation can a family killer have.

Hurt ourselves and others, help us pacify the Liberal Alliance?

How can it be.

Or do you want to use violence to take Qiyuan City?

More unlikely.

And Tails was wondering.

Black Sand Collar...... Send troops to Qiyuan City?

At that moment, Tails frowned and thought hard, his brain spinning wildly.

Wait, what is the most desired thing for Rumba at the moment, and what is the most pressing problem?

That's certainly ......

In the next second, Tails, who had figured out the inside story, opened his mouth wide in surprise!

He wasn't the only one soon.

For the mighty voice of King Chaman spoke again: "As I said, we are here to help......"

"Soon, from the northern plains to the tributaries of the Dusk Snow River, from the hills of sighs to the great needle forests of the east and west......"

"Every village and town, every castle, every fief nobleman in the Black Sand Territory will receive my conscription order. ”

The king looked at every nobleman in the hall with a grim face, and cast a special look at Risban and Ian:

"For the sake of Exeter, my vassals will gamble their fame, give their money, recruit warriors, send their heirs, and come westward to witness the unbreakable friendship between the Black Sand Leader and the city of Qiyuan from the foolishness and ultimate defeat of the Free Alliance, and how we love this great kingdom together!"

As soon as these words came out, the old spicy vassals such as Lisban and Nazaire were shocked and looked at each other in amazement!

They had already understood the king's intentions.

No way?

The hall slowly fell silent.

Ian took a few deep breaths, and then he frowned:

"Gambling on fame and money?"

A wave of anger suddenly rushed to the chest of His Excellency the Viscount.

"No way. ”

Ian's face was distorted, and he couldn't help but say loudly to King Chaman: "Do you think that in the name of aiding Qiyuan City, you can make the world think that we have secretly made peace with you and are in cahoots?"

"Can you make the vassals who have opposed you all the way in the Black Sand Territory waver?"

"Will it break their confidence in resisting your tyranny?"

"It can't be!"

His Excellency the Viscount trembled slightly, and the indignation in his eyes was clear.

"The entire Black Sand Collar is despising you, spitting on you, and opposing your bullshit decree!"

Ian glanced angrily at Tails, still resentful of his backlash.

His Excellency the Viscount of Windy City turned back to the king and said unceremoniously: "Help us? Hmph, who can you move at such a moment?

Viscount Cambida on the king's side snorted coldly, as if he was very dissatisfied with the other party's disrespectful tone.

Tails frowned, staring at King Chaman.

It's been six years.

Your means......

It's still just as terrible, it's horrible, and even worse than it used to be.

Friends.

The Regent of Lisbane coughed softly.

"Lord Ian," said the Earl of Lisbane, who had seen through something, solemnly, "don't you understand?"

"That's exactly what he wanted for disobedient vassals. ”

Ian was slightly stunned at first.

But then, he gradually understood.

Disobedient vassals?

Ian was struck by lightning, and his face turned from red to white, and then from white to blue.

What the?
