Kingdom’s Bloodline Chapter 46: The battle of the princes
The four grand princes looked at Rumba with different expressions: Olesiu frowned and looked suspicious, Trudida looked sideways, extremely suspicious, Grand Duke Lecco’s eyes remained motionless, as if froze in place. Ronnie clenched his fists, his eyes were full of disdain.
After a long while, Grand Duke Olesiu asked everyone's heart softly: "Are you crazy?"
Crackling.
Six large braziers, mixed with other fuels such as eternal oil and firewood, burn more vigorously.
At this moment, the half of the black sand Grand Duke's body was hidden in the darkness, and the half of his body was reflected in the fire in the hall.
Rumba turned around, looked at the empty theme in the rectangular table, his thoughts moved slightly.
When I was young, the scene of playing here with Harold seemed to reappear.
He unconsciously pressed the saber around his waist.
"Who knows," Rumba's expression was indifferent and his eyes were cold: "Probably so."
Olesiu's expression became more confused, and his brows began to tremble slightly.
At this moment, Trudida, who had been squinting his eyes on Lombard, let out a chuckle.
The other princes all looked at him.
"Dongxiao City, hahaha...Dongxiao City," Trudida's right hand rested on his horizontally hugged left arm, against his chin, his shoulders shaking with laughter, embroidered on his chest The radiant blade also swayed up and down: "Partition?"
The Grand Duke of the reconstructed tower laughed a few times again, as if he had just heard a good joke.
Obviously, his sense of humor did not affect the other four: they all looked at Trudida quietly with a cold expression.
"Sorry...haha..."
"Forgive my gaffe, everyone." Grand Duke Trudida grinned and shook his head, still resting his right hand on his left arm, swinging freely toward the princes.
But there was no apology in the words.
"Sitting in the seat of the Grand Duke, I don't often hear such amazing words." Grand Duke Trudida's smile slowly faded, but the smile still remained on his face, with deep meaning in his eyes:
"Especially from another Grand Duke."
Rumba looked at him and snorted, his expression unpredictable.
"Very good," Grand Duke Olesiu of the Weiland leader interjected coldly: "We will take down the vast land of Longxiao City and countless people, and eat and drink..."
"Then, just let your business go, right?" He was thoughtful, but his eyes were getting worse and worse:
"Like a good business?"
"The king's territory, exchange the king's life?"
Rumba didn't even look at him. He just stared into the air and said silently: "Don't overinterpret what I mean, you've been biased against me since Rebian was young."
Olesiu sneered, his face ugly.
The only sitting Grand Duke Lecco sighed long.
"Ignore His Majesty Nunn's assassination, ignore someone's domineering and betrayal?" The oldest prince shook his head, his expression was rare and serious: "This is not a good proposal."
Rumba looked at Lecco, her eyes sharpened.
"I'm sure this is a good proposal, Rogers, respected elder," he said respectfully, "Dragon City is in the heart of Exeter, with countless ways, abundant resources, and vast territory. The land is fertile and there are many people."
Rumba's eyes moved slightly: "It has a natural suppressive advantage over other territories."
"In the days when Nunn was in power, you also suffered deeply from his army crossing the border, setting up cards, cutting off supplies, collecting food, emigrating, opening up wasteland...He has some tricks against us."
Grand Duke Lecco sighed, his eyes blurred.
"So, solve Dragon City," Rumba stretched out his right hand, looked around at the princes, and slowly clenched his fists: "This is to make the shackles named Walton cease to exist, and to understand... …All of you here."
He glanced at the other four.
But the other princes were not moved.
Only Grand Duke Ronnie lifted his chin slightly, first showed a smile but not a smile, then his eyes turned cold.
"Really..." He said solemnly.
"After you did all of this, after you shamelessly killed the monarch, after you marched into the Palace of Valor with your troops," Ronnie's voice gradually revealed a suppressed anger: "I actually want to use His Majesty’s interests and territory, in exchange for our understanding, in exchange for our complicity?"
"Speaking so well-sounding..."
"As if you are on our side and have to do this for our sake."
Grand Duke Ronnie took a cold sip in front of Rumba: "Fuck you, Rumba."
Rumba looked back at him blankly.
Although Kulikun Ronnie of Qiyuan City is as bold and upright as the rumors, he does not compromise, but this is the first time I have seen him.
Maybe it will be a problem.
Grand Duke Lombard closed his eyes, then slowly opened them.
"I must reiterate that although I have an insoluble misunderstanding and even enmity with His Majesty Nunn," he slowly said: "But the whole tragedy of last night?"
"You have all heard of the secret planning methods of the stars, and some people may have seen them."
"The reason why I am here is to save ourselves before the trauma they left on the dragon kingdom worsens."
Olesiu interrupted him unceremoniously.
"So what is this?" The grand prince of Wellland collar glanced at Rumba with an ugly expression: "Find enough price, and then buy us to endorse you?"
"So, you put this Hall of Glory... Olesiu's volume suddenly increased, and his face turned angrily: "Is it a bazaar where the inferior people drink and bargain? "
"Don't tarnish our dignity, Lord."
Lecko watched the conversation of several people coldly, without speaking.
Rumba's face sank, he lowered his head slightly, and exhaled slowly.
"So, don't you accept this price?" His voice was a little low: "The same thing was born three hundred years ago. Without Sarah's regency, Walton would have been lost because of the death of the lord. The rule of Longxiao City is over."
"That means."
"This is your rare opportunity in 300 years..."
Hearing this, Ronnie couldn't stand it anymore, he slapped the table and yelled:
"This is impossible!"
He had an offended expression on his face and shouted angrily: "You want us to fall for ourselves and conspiracy with the kingslayer, to cover up and tolerate the sin that should have been committed by you, and the evil results you left behind?"
"You are insulting us, and you are insulting Exeter!"
Trudida laughed.
"Carve up the Longxiao City? God, I can really hear this in my lifetime when Pharaoh is gone." He said gloomily, his small eyes watching back and forth.
"But this can't be a reason for us to wipe your ass," Grand Duke Trudida took his eyes from Rumba, smiled and said: "It's not a good way to bargain."
Rumba looked back at the rebuilt tower grand prince, his expression changed:
"Really?"
"Tludida, no matter how you go to sigh the mountains, the barren reconstruction tower will always lack a piece of new cultivated land," Rumba turned and faced Trudida face-to-face. Wei Wei was startled: "But if you have two or even three counties in the southeast of Longxiao City, you don't have to talk to the barbarians in the mountains anymore, and you don't have to worry about every cold food shortage."
Trudida narrowed his eyes.
"You mean two enclaves that do not border my land?" The sly Duke sneered slightly: "Who is it better for?"
Rumba cocked his mouth.
"Since you said that," the Grand Duke Heisha said in a chilling voice: "Puffett of Fengzhao City has just passed away and his territory is too close to Longxiao City."
The eyes of the four grand princes moved slightly.
"I thought that his young brother was not enough to take on the big responsibility." Rumba said coldly: "It just happens to solve the dilemma of rebuilding the tower. Of course, in this case, the division of Longxiao City will be explained separately. Now, Qiyuan City and Weilanling can be divided into more."
Trudida was stunned, he looked at Rumba blankly, as if he had known him for the first time.
When Grand Duke Ronnie heard this, he scolded terribly: "Damn!"
Boom, boom, boom.
The University of Lecco tapped his fingers on the table top with subtle eyes.
"From the past, Chaman, who stayed behind his brother, to today's fierce Duke Black Sand..." His voice was long and steady: "I used to underestimate you, the old guy chose you instead of There seems to be a reason for Harold, who is popular."
Rumba's pupils tightened slightly.
The scene from twelve years ago reappeared before his eyes.
Harold.
His brother.
His ordained monarch.
He seemed to see the other person lying on the ground again, coughing up blood in pain, and showing the last smile to his crying and crying face.
Charman.
Remember.
We will never give in.
Rumba's eyes freeze in the void.
Only the bald prince sighed: "How ambitious is to swallow the two most central princes in a row?"
My ambition?
No.
Rumba said silently.
My ambition is beyond your reach.
Trudida's eyes rolled.
"It's as if the nobles and other princes in these fiefs are dead," the Grand Duke of Reconstruction Tower seemed to mock: "It must be uncomfortable that Fengzhao City is closer to the goatee, isn't it? "
Rumba brought his attention back to reality.
"Duke Droquet did not come, it was his loss," Charman Rumba said sternly, as if he was seriously discussing: "But if you are worried, then we can also negotiate with him and we can reach a good Results."
Trudida laughed, his intentions difficult to discern.
Pop, pop.
Olesiu patted his palm twice.
"You are really enough," the bearded man said coldly: "Do you remember who you are?"
Rumba's eyes moved.
"I know that there is no shortage of land in the Weiland region, and the reputation of the Olesiu family in the hearts of the Northlanders is also not trivial," Duke Heisha nodded and said to Olesiu: "But if you accept this condition, You won’t have to be cautious about being caught between the king’s urging warrant and the outpost of Star Watch City because of the border defense of Big Needle Forest."
"And you, Ronnie who is upright." Rumba looked at the long visitor from Qiyuan City.
"Qiyuan City has the best source of levies in the world for these new citizens, and 80% of the people can prepare their own full sets of weapons, so that when you face the turmoil in the desert and the golden corridor again, you will be full of confidence. , At least you don’t have to be so nervous, like an enemy."
Ronnie didn't say a word, just looked at him coldly.
"As for guarding the city," Rumba turned to Lecco, whose face was wrinkled and wrinkled: "The rich mines in the northern part of Longxiao City...for nothing, a large area with rich bituminous deposits has been added, is it possible?"
"Next time, the Grand Duke Hustel or the new king will force you to mobilize the whole territory and fill in the defense line of the glacier, you can throw a lot of gold coins to make them shut up."
Grand Duke Lecco is noncommittal.
"Enough," Grand Duke Olesiu interrupted Rumba's one-man show. He shook his head: "Don't test our patience. We are not here to chat with you and brag."
"You should be so thankful that we are still willing to listen to your nonsense here." Ronnie added unceremoniously.
"But you don't seem to know the situation you are facing," the long prince said angrily:
"You, you are our biggest problem!"
"Charman who killed the king...at least was the suspected King-killer Chaman?"
Rumba frowned slightly, and he glanced around at the expressions of the other three princes.
None of them objected to Ronnie's words, even the most stingy and stingy Trudida.
Rumba sighed secretly in his heart.
"You just can't understand, right?" He closed his eyes and raised his right hand, rubbing his brow. It seems very tired.
"Even if I am so sincere and give my proposal so sincerely?" Rumba opened his eyes, raised his eyebrows, and suddenly raised his voice: "Even if these conditions are actually beneficial to you?"
"Come on!" Olesiu interrupted him loudly.
"The morning after the king died," the bearded Grand Duke snorted: "The five Grand Duke is just such a coincidence. They all appeared together and told them: Sorry, Longxiao City is no longer Walton's territory. And you belong to us now, from then on pay taxes to us and accept our call?"
Aside, Trudida gave a weird hum, while Ronnie clasped his arms, seeming to suppress his anger.
"If you didn't treat the four of us as fools..." Olesiu focused his eyes and continued:
"It must be that the nobles of Longxiao City are regarded as blind, and the leaders of Longxiao City are regarded as fools!"
Rumba looked at him silently.
"Even if you look down on the ignorant and rude civilians, the earls of Longxiao City are not good." Grand Duke Trudida sighed:
"They are from the North, they are only loyal to Walton."
"Carving up Dragon City? This will only be a joke."
The Grand Duke of Reconstruction Tower shook his head and spread his hands: "Without that surname, we will never be able to rule this land."
"Bring us a piece of sweet cheese that we can't eat to cover up your dirty things?"
Trudida rolled his eyes and smiled: "At this point, you can't convince us."
Rumba frowned.
The Grand Duke Ronnie in front of him snorted heavily.
"And the whole Exeter, what do you think they would think of us?" Grand Duke Lecco said slowly, his eyes flashing occasionally: "Five princes, after conspiring to kill the monarch, they divided up His territory?"
Lecko shook his head and didn't say any more.
Ronnie took a step forward. He squinted his eyes and spoke to Rumba's face almost rudely: "Maybe you can be shameless, killing both relatives and kings."
Rumba's face changed.
"I am so content and even proud..."
"But please remember, we are from the North, and we are from Exter," the Grand Duke Qiyuan said coldly, "We have our own dignity and pride, if you are really Special future'..."
Ronnie frowned, as if disgusted: "Don't talk like a Kangmas again, it makes me sick."
Rumba closed his eyes, turned and walked a few steps, his chest undulating.
He is suppressing.
I suppress my increasingly impatient anger.
Even though he has done rehearsals hundreds of times, he expected the reaction of the princes.
But...
Enough.
Rumba opened his eyes suddenly.
Grand Duke?
These short-sighted, stupid **** behind him.
I think I am noble and proud.
Not aware of the imminent crisis.
Ignore the most terrible threats.
They never realized where the horror that really determines their survival lies.
Someday...
Rumba suddenly turned around, his expression firm and decisive.
It seems like a decision has been made.
The nerves of the four grand princes couldn't help but tighten.
But Rumba didn't do anything to overturn the chessboard.
"I understand." Within a few seconds, he exhaled deeply, his expression calmed down: "What do you mean."
The four grand princes exchanged a few glances.
"First, do you think we can't successfully take down Longxiao City without any hidden dangers?"
Trudida snorted, and the others were noncommittal.
"Secondly," Rumba continued, "According to Ronnie~IndoMTL.com~As Exeters, do you have your own creed?"
Ronnie had a fierce face, and made a bite motion at him, his eyes full of disdain.
Rumba took a deep breath, gazes like iron, and swept through every Archduke Exeter resolutely.
At that moment, Rumba remembered twelve years ago.
The self at that time.
That young, but already heartbroken self, who has tasted the vicissitudes of life, the little earl who doesn't know where to go.
The nightmare title of the heir to the black sand collar.
At that time, he was the same, with great perseverance and determination, standing in the revival palace of the star kingdom, standing in the hall of stars, facing the star people who were full of bad eyes.
Faced with the old man, Eddie Canxing, the most uncomfortable king of stars in his eyes.
Facing the murderous Sword of Light, the **** butcher of the stars, Horace Canxing.
Facing the eldest son sitting under the king.
Midil Canxing, who always smiles, has a humble tone, and makes people unconsciously calm.
Also.
Rumba clenched his fist.
And the woman sitting next to King Eddie.
That woman.
Rumba can't remember her face.
For some reason, when I think of the woman who is steady and strong, and her expression is indifferent, Rumba's feeling is still as shocked as before.
He knew: It was tension from the heart.
And fear.
Rumba exhaled this breath, his eyes refocused.
"If this is your worry," he calmly said to the four justices: "I can solve it."
"Longxiao City, and even Fengzhao City," Rumba's voice was full of nasal sounds: "We can all take it without trouble, safely and peacefully."
