Kingdom’s Bloodline Chapter 71: Call General

Grand Duke Ronnie stood behind Grand Duke Lecco, looked across the rectangular table, and cast his eyes on the boy, watching him try to restrain his tension and excitement, suddenly a little sighed.

We will all...A disaster is imminent?

He raised his lips slightly: How long have you not encountered a guy like this, who didn't hesitate in front of several princes, and utterly uttered without hesitation?

The hall fell into a strange silence for an instant.

The expressions of all the princes were very unnatural, and the rhythm of breathing became disordered.

Rumba closed his eyes gently.

Thyls tried to control his breath, only the crackling of the brazier in his ears.

Three full seconds passed before Grand Duke Lecco slowly turned his head and glanced at the others.

"We have given you a chance to speak, Your Royal Highness," the old man turned his head from the exchange of eyes, and sighed rather solemnly: "It's not that I made you speak out and be alarmist."

"You better be clearer, kid," Olesiu stared at Thales with an ugly expression: "After threatening the Archduke in the Hall of Heroes, not everyone has a chance to walk out intact."

Tyles breathed in a daze, seemingly unaware of the uneasy interrogation of the two grand princes.

Calm down, Thales.

The more this kind of moment, the more calm you have to be.

You can.

Yes!

"Longxiao City."

"Rumba gave you," Thales said softly, his calm appearance made the princes startled slightly: "The proposal to swallow the Dragon City is not well-intentioned."

Tludida shook his tongue.

"First send troops to the stars, then Longxiao City," the cunning Grand Duke gave a wonderful smile: "How do you know these things?"

Tyles exhaled.

How did I know that you were going to swallow Dragon City?

He said quietly in his heart: Rumba promised Shreis the preferential tariffs around Longxiao City, it's that simple.

"It's not difficult to guess," but on the surface, Thales still looks as usual: "In order to gather people's hearts, in addition to common threats, there must be enough benefits—no doubt, Longxiao City It's a ready-made, unowned cheese, especially to cause contention and conflict. It couldn't be better."

Trudida frowned and looked at Rumba.

"After all, it was an act of breaking the co-governance vows," the prince sighed: "The balance of power is no longer there. This set a precedent for illegally seizing territory. In the future, every grass and tree will belong to every inch. Territory will become the fuse of conflicts and conflicts between you-Lombard will only fan the flames, and he hopes that you will conflict and weaken each other..."

Olesiu interrupted him with a cold snort.

Selma, who was listening quietly, showed a look of disgust and glanced at him dissatisfied.

"Your words are not true, kid," the Grand Duke Welland shook his cheeks in a poor tone: "In fact, we have discussed this issue: in the face of greater threats, Rumba has no reason to do this."

Speaking of this, Grand Duke Lecco coughed and took the conversation: "The threat of the stars is imminent and protracted. It cannot be solved in one or two big battles. At this moment, his self-conflict behavior will only help Exter is not good."

Thyls' heart moved: "Wars, especially foreign wars, are more likely to be the sparking point of conflicts between you..."

But at this moment, Rumba, who had been silent, raised his head and pierced him with a sword-like gaze.

"Don't you understand?"

Grand Duke Heisha spoke slowly, with an indistinct emotion in his voice.

"This kid is very intelligent. He is trying to stop the war and save his country." Rumba walked slowly to a brazier, blocking the fire, leaving a shadow: "Saving that will be in his hands. The kingdom here, that may in the future let our children and grandchildren bow their heads."

The princes frowned.

"This is the next point I want to say," Thales squeezed an uncompromising smile at him: "You want to save your country too, Charman Rumba."

Rumba frowned slightly.

"If you say so surely, why did our Grand Duke of Black Sand do this?" Seeing Rumba's end, the silent Duke Ronnie also joined this dangerous conversation: "Causing conflict between the princes , What good is he? Is there an extra piece of cheese?"

Trudida sneered in a face.

"And, why is our disaster approaching?"

Under the astonishing gaze of Duke Black Sand, Thales adjusted his breathing silently, brewing the next words.

"You all know the past of Duke Black Sand," Thales raised his voice and looked at the princes seriously: "The past of killing my brother with his own hands has made him hard-hearted and determined. He and Nu The enmity of King Eun has been settled since then."

As soon as this remark came out, Rumba’s eyes became sharper, and Thales even felt that the surrounding air was a lot colder

The princes looked at each other with understanding.

Tyles took a deep breath, staring at Lombard’s rough face, and firmly said the next sentence: "But you, Chaman Lombard, your act of killing the king and leading the army to push the palace is not for revenge. It’s not for self-protection."

"Because the object you really hate and care about is neither King Nunn nor Dragon City," Thales said in the calmest tone, "but the people of the North are proud of Heroic tradition is the glorious history of Exeter..."

The prince whispered the answer: "Nikaru's co-governance oath."

Selma's uncontrollable exclaim, the princes were all startled.

Lecco's hands began to rub again, Trudida thoughtfully, and Ronny immediately looked at Rumba with suspicious eyes.

"What the **** are you talking about?" Olesiu knocked on the table impatiently: "Co-governance oath?"

Thyls was expressionless and nodded slowly.

"Rumba's life has been tortured in his mother and patriline, between the power of Longxiao City and Black Sand, the monarch and the prince," Thales said in a very serious manner: "Of course. The princes here are similar."

Grand Duke Lecco's hand tightened slightly.

"But what is different from the people who are accustomed to is..."

Tyles looked at Rumba’s deep and complicated eyes, gritted his teeth, and said the following:

"Chaman Rumba, when your father forced you to challenge your elder brother, when you pierced your elder brother's chest with your sword, when your mother was gloomy and committed suicide, when your father died in battle Then...you made up your mind."

Every time he said a word, Rumba's eyes became colder.

Tyles took a deep breath, and the image of Lombard stroking a saber coldly on the carriage appeared before him.

He rubbed his hands in the cold air, maintaining a steady tone:

"You are tired of endless struggles from the bottom of your heart. You think you have seen through the unsolvable and sad cycle behind this. You hate the status quo of the Kingdom of Exeter behind this compromise and tacit understanding. You believe that as long as That paper oath still exists for one day, and your superstitions about it still exist for another day..."

"You, and the similar tragedy behind you, will not disappear."

Thyls said quietly.

"Yes, everyone." Under the incredible eyes of several princes, the prince of the stars was still looking straight at the face of the black sand that was about to freeze into ice, not affected by the uneasy pull of Selma. Obstructing and interfering, he spoke very firmly: "As early as twelve years ago, Chaman Rumba decided: To completely destroy the 600-year-old co-governance vow, but to bring up the constant contradiction between the king and the grand duke. ……"

"...Smash the peaceful co-ruling of the ten grand princes!"

Tyles finished speaking, closed his eyes and bowed his head.

There was dead silence in the hall.

Listening to Thales, almost all the princes opened their eyes and opened their mouths, with expressions of surprise or disbelief.

Their eyes shot towards Rumba.

Several seconds later, the silence was broken.

"What the **** are you talking about?" Trudida exhaled a long breath, frowned, and looked at the decisive Thales for unknown reasons: "Dissatisfaction is one thing, but... Governance oath? How is this possible?"

"Absurd!"

Enduring the inexplicable gazes of others, Lombard coldly rejected Thales’ words: “How can I destroy the co-governance vows against the beliefs and beliefs of 10 million people in the North? Kill them all?"

Thyls suddenly raised his head and opened his eyes.

"You are already doing it, aren't you!" The prince said solemnly, "When you killed King Nunn, and forced the princes to ignore your crimes and endorse your crimes, they will jointly treat the oath. Has been trampled on."

Selma's face darkened, her lips pursed.

"You have become the worst precedent," Thales said blankly: "For this reason, you have also struggled with the princes going south to the stars, using new interests to further aggravate the tilt of the balance, and the attack has begun to be unstable. The co-governance oath."

"Say it to your heart's content. The princes don't care about the time you waste anyway," Rumba sarcastically gave the others a dissatisfaction.

Ronnie snorted inexplicably.

"For my purpose of gathering your power," Rumba's face was full of contempt and disdain, and he whispered to the princes: "Everyone knows it well and agrees-this is for Exeter."

He made the knot without hesitation.

Tyles looked at Rumba's expression and didn't know where the courage came from. He sighed, jumped off the chair, and took a step forward.

"Yes!"

"This is for Exter!" To everyone's expectation, the prince glared with anger, clenched his fists, and said decisively: "And so far, I admire you most. One point, Charman Rumba..."

"In addition to personal likes and dislikes, you sincerely and without falsehood want to make Exeter stronger!"

"Facing the future threat of the stars!"

Thyls almost roared out the last words.

As soon as the words came out, Selma gave a soft "Huh" with questions.

Just when the princes were stunned and even Rumba was slightly confused, Thales took a deep breath, curbed his expression, and spoke suddenly!

"But this is the most terrible thing."

Just listen to him coldly saying: "Mindis III."

The moment the name was uttered, Rumba's face was blue and his expression was turbulent--like a beast that had been caught.

The faces of the princes became strange.

Trudida sighed: How does this kid know everything--could it be that he had been hiding in the fireplace just now?

Selma looked up thoughtfully.

Mindis·Canxing III.

Xianjun.

Thyls said silently in his heart, and the rightmost one of the three king portraits appeared in front of him: the elegant and handsome middle-aged king holding a star rod, and he was kind to him outside the frame. smile.

That was one of his ancestors, one of the three kings of stars, and...

Tyles touched his chest lightly, where the scar that was burned by Quaid with the Mindis silver coin seemed to be still aching.

The king does not respect the bloodline, but the bloodline is honored by the king.

Winning or losing for a while, but the waves are fleeting, and a century of chess will be the foundation of all ages.

Also—Tyles remembered the king’s father’s evaluation when he first met King Kessel: "From nobles to sacrifices, from merchants to beggars, all praise his wise governance."

The rule of wisdom?

There was a movement in Thales's heart, and he clenched his chest, and the words of the chief priest Holm appeared in his mind.

[From the beginning of your journey, every inconspicuous detail may be an opportunity to dominate the future. 】

The prince thought of the Xianjun's portrait on the silver coin, thought of Min Disi Hall, and thought of everything he faced today. He couldn't help but smile: Is all this a coincidence?

He raised his head.

"Rumba told you the story of'Xianjun', right?"

Tyles' eyes became firm again: "Rumba said, the current situation of the Star Kingdom has been developed from the foundation of Xianjun?"

Grand Duke Trudida narrowed his eyes and resisted the desire to look back at Rumba.

"He probably also told you how the inheritance left by Xianjun has gradually become a support for the Star Kingdom to live on in this century."

Thyls clenched his fist lightly, his expression determined.

"But what Rumba didn't tell you was..."

Rumba looked at him from a distance with an extremely ugly expression.

Thyls thought of the fear of being in the same carriage with Lombard, and remembered his last words:

Go to save this country.

Thinking of this, Thales took a deep breath, raised his right fist and knocked **** his chest!

"From the body of the Star Kingdom, from the body of Xianjun, Rumba not only sees the threat!"

The prince gritted his teeth, only feeling that his hands were shaking:

"He also saw Exeter's future, the hundreds of years of difficulties in the Northland-the final solution!"

The voice fell, and the hall was quiet for a moment.

Next second.

Listening to Thales, from the calm Grand Duke Lecco to the impatient Grand Duke Olesiu, to the exaggerated Trudida and the indifferent Ronnie, they were all surprised, and Qi Qi said: "What?"

"Boom!" The scabbard's fierce voice suddenly sounded.

Thyls was taken aback, feeling a cold on his forehead.

He took a hard breath.

The prince raised his head if he noticed.

Then, not surprisingly, met Rumba's eyes in the air.

Since Thales met him, Rumba's face has never been so ugly and terrifying.

Duke Heisha's face is almost distorted: his brows are tangled into a ball, the statutory lines next to his nose flicker and disappear, and the masseter muscles on the side of his chin are constantly moving.

And the Rumba Grand Duke's always sharp but indifferent eyes, at this moment, are like erupting volcanoes, radiating anger mixed with cold and hatred.

Shoot at Thales fiercely.

No.

The boy...

He is again...

It's him again!

Why...

Rumba's heart exudes endless chill and anger, he pressed his saber firmly to prevent his hands from shaking too much with anger:

Why?

Seeing Rumba's face, Selma shook slightly, and looked at Thales as if asking for help.

The prince did not flinch.

Thyls gave him a vicious look back, also showing a vicious expression.

"Think about what Rumba did," Thales confronted Rumba's terrifying gaze in the air, and he said coldly: "Promote low-level nobles and civilians, recruit even tax collectors from foreign countries, borrow from merchants, and hire The special magic gun instructor cleans and aggregates the inside through war-isn't his behavior familiar?"

Trudida frowned slightly: "You mean..."

"Also, for a long time, from the conspiracy of Aaron to the siege of the Broken Dragon Fortress, to the decision to send troops to the stars now." Thales took a deep breath with a decisive expression, remembering every secret he had with Rumba. Fight once.

Under the Broken Dragon Fortress, confronted this worldless hero, and made a decision to break through in the opposite direction, which ultimately frustrated Rumba's hope of winning the fortress.

The prince clenched his lower lip: I beat him.

And now...

Thyls opened his eyes suddenly: "Rumba just wants the north of the stars, right?"

"Why? Want to open up new territory?"

"It's because," Thales said with a cold face, and said the rest: "He wants this piece of Mindis III's reforms to be incomplete, and they are in the same Northland, so they are suitable for merging with the black sand collar and further promoting The land of change?"

The faces of the princes all changed!

"Don't tell me, the northern tax collector of civilian origin, Child Ullard, was recruited as your subordinate only because of his good-looking braids," Thales said slowly:

"Charman Rumba?"

Rumba didn't respond, but the terrifying gaze staring at him didn't move.

It's like looking at a dead person.

"Yes, this is the truth behind the'Threat of the Stars': Rumba wants more than just defend against the stars."

Thyls pursed his lips, and under the surprised eyes of the four princes, he nodded without doubt: "He is going to be in Exeter, starting from himself..."

"Imitate Xianjun's reform!"

"To'save' his country."

"Whether it is killing King Nunn, entangled with the princes, or attacking the stars..."

"All serve for this purpose!"

Thyls gasped slightly after saying this.

The princes looked at him suspiciously.

"Charman, what do you think?"

Lycco moved his gaze away from the square table and sighed slowly: "Compared to him, we are more willing to choose to believe in you."

Rumba closed his eyes.

After a while, he spoke slowly.

"This is a step that must be taken to resist the threat of stars."

"You have seen the Star Legion and their bureaucratic system," the Grand Duke said coldly: "The Star Kingdom is getting stronger and stronger, and Ekster can't sit and wait."

"We must put aside our pride and contentment, and learn the advantages of the enemy," Rumba raised the sword in his hand, and slowly squeezed it tightly: "Forging our own Star Legion-only in this way can we win the Broken Dragon The fortress, after interrupting the changes of the stars, will maintain our advantage over them for a long time, until finally defeating them completely."

"At least in the black sand collar."

He ended his words

The Grand Duke listened silently~IndoMTL.com~ This is no problem. "Trudida sighed: "I think we can accept..."

But the Grand Duke stopped talking.

Because he saw that the bald Lekota frowned just sadly and tiredly, looking at Rumba from a distance.

It's like seeing the most incredible truth.

This is... Trudida's heart is surprised: What's wrong?

"Well said, I will applaud for you," Thales' voice sounded, sounding rather dull: "There was only one small accident."

Rumba clenched his teeth.

In front of all the princes, Thales took a deep breath, then exhaled it slowly.

The prince’s eyes flashed with unprecedented light, slowly and decisively:

"Any change... has a price."
