Chapter 316 The Grand Duke and the vassals(3/3)
Off the stage, Thales' fists were loosening and tightening.
Close.
Coming soon, Selma.
Just one step away!
Count Nazaire's eyes when he looked at the Grand Duchess suddenly changed, revealing a sharp edge:
"If you can choose your husband enlightenedly and soberly, and re-stabilize the future of the Dragonlance family, then all problems can be easily solved."
"At that time, as the Grand Duchess, you will be in charge of Longxiao City, and you can legitimately raise Walton's flag of honor and order the aid to Qiyuan City."
"Your husband, who is also in the Walton family, led the troops and joined us vassals in conquering the West to cleanse the chaos of the Free Alliance."
Just listen to the earl speak coldly: "Restore the prestige of the family, safeguard the honor of Longxiao City, and win the alliance of Qiyuan City, and even dampen the arrogance of the king, and demonstrate our existence and strength. Is this possible?
Isn’t that a better solution?”
The Grand Duchess bit her lower lip and seemed a little panicked in front of more than twenty vassals.
At this moment, Selma's regent, Earl of Lisban, spoke at the right time.
"Against the king? Really?" Regent Lisban snorted: "At this moment when Qiyuan City is playing chess with the king, you deliberately interfere with the lord's marriage...Why, the sweetness given by Heisha Ling, Charman
Are the bones left behind by the king so easy to lick?"
At that moment, Nazer turned his head sharply and stared at Lisban like a vicious beast whose tail had been stepped on.
"Be careful, old friend."
"Rumba did come to see me," Count Nazer said coldly, as if he had an irresolvable grudge with Lisban: "But the Nazer family in Longxiao City is not like him who kills his relatives to seize the throne.
A rotten guy can be manipulated no matter how eloquent he is and his intentions are sinister."
"But please believe me, madam, this is purely my own decision, because I think this is the best future for Longxiao City."
Nazer's words continued: "Your rights will not be subject to any interference: as long as you are a noble man in Longxiao City, how to choose and which one to choose as your husband is still your wish. This is
It’s from Longxiao City…”
Unable to bear it, Lisban shouted angrily again.
"That's enough, Nazer!"
The regent said coldly: "You can just talk about 'for Longxiao City'."
"However, let the Grand Duchess marry one of you? Is this your solution?"
Lisban shook his head slowly, as if sharp knives were shooting out of his eyes: "Do you really know what this will bring to Longxiao City?"
The center of the fight seemed to be between the two counts again.
"certainly."
"Madam," Nazaire's voice became lowered, but his eyes never left Lisban: "I know what Charles... Count Lisban told you. It was nothing more than, 'The Grand Duchess wants to check and balance everyone and maintain Longxiao.
The balance of power in the city', 'The lord's hasty marriage to the vassal is not good for the internal governance of Longxiao City', 'You cannot entrust your identity and power within Longxiao City' and other excuses as reasons for your refusal to marry."
"Indeed, it is not unreasonable. I have worked with Charles for many years. I know better than anyone else: he is not a fool. This kind of worry does exist."
Nazaire looked at Lisban with complicated eyes, but when he turned to the Grand Duchess, his eyes became even more strange.
"I didn't want to say the following words, Madam," Nazaire said softly: "But you and I just suddenly realized that maybe we shouldn't treat you as a young child who knows nothing about you. You are the Grand Duchess after all."
Selma's heart moved.
Lisban frowned.
"So, do you think that your marriage is really just to tie the power of the Walton family to a certain family in Longxiao City and seize it into our hands, as some people say?"
"No."
Count Nazaire spoke softly with some fatigue: "This is for a higher and more important purpose."
Everyone, the next chapter has been coded and revised. It is scheduled to be posted at 12:30. I'm going to have dinner.
Chapter completed!
