Chapter 469

Three days later, in the Dragon Hall.

Emilis sat high on the Iron Throne, looking down at the ministers under him.

Today she was wearing an exquisite and complex silver-white robe, with gold embroidered on her sleeves and neckline, showing an unspeakable temperament. She tied up her long silver-blooded hair and a simple dragon-shaped crown on her head, which set off her not-tall and exquisite body with a majestic kingly style.

Although he has not officially ascended the throne, the entire Congatro people already know that the kingdom is about to usher in a new queen!

In the past three days, the dragon-born army rushed north.

Emilys, with centaurs and gun-winged knights as the main body, as well as half of the wizards and extreme warriors, headed straight to the Principality of Attis and Brandon. Renn opened the Void Spirit Gate to teleport the army, and in just half an hour he captured the capital of Attis, "Flying Eagle City".

The vassals and lords of the Principal of Attis surrendered to His Majesty the Dragonborn.

Then the army took another two days to capture the "Yongdong City", the capital of the Principality of Brandon, and several major cities of the Brandon family. When the dragon army arrived in Yongdong City, the people of the Brandon family had not even received news that Mark was dead.

Dinlaji also led an extraordinary army to the west and successfully captured the headless Duchy of Dance.

At this point, the dragon descendants conquered the entire territory of Congatro.

"Everyone," Emilys' eyes swept over the people in the Dragon Hall, and stayed on Renn for a moment for a moment, raised a smile on the corner of her mouth, and said proudly: "Now it's time to discuss how to deal with the prisoners and the rule of the entire kingdom in the future."

There are more than a dozen people under the Iron Throne, all of whom are important figures in the Dragonborn camp.

When people heard Emilys' words, they were all excited and knew that the time was coming to distribute their interests. Especially the dukes and princes of the major families of Congatro and the legendary extraordinary people, some were eagerly looking forward to it, some were nervous and had different expressions.

However, Emilyce waited for a few seconds but no one responded.

She frowned slightly, knowing that these people, except Ren, might be thinking about their own thoughts. If they don't speak, they are unwilling to stand up.

Even the loyal Valogen, who had followed him for many years, remained silent.

"Let's talk about the prisoners first." Emilys called out: "Varogan, report the list of those prisoners and listen to everyone."

"Yes, your Majesty."

Varogan stood up, saluted respectfully to the queen on the throne, and then turned around and pronounced names.

The list is very long. The leader is Duke Brandon and Cost of the Dance family, and the rest are vassals under Mark. Most of them were the heroes of the overthrow of the Drogonburg dynasty. Of course, from the perspective of Emilys, they are traitors and enemies.

Everyone on the list is a well-known figure in the Kingdom, and many more have been killed in the wars of the past few days.

Varogen did not read the records, and based on his memory, he reported the names, family and past experiences of these people, and it took him half an hour to finish.

He sat down again after he finished speaking.

There was another silence in the Dragon Hall. The lords quietly looked up at the queen on the throne, and realized that her face was not good-looking. The names of these people seemed to evoke her unpleasant memories.

Everyone looked at each other, not daring to speak out first.

Ding Laji couldn't help but get up and asked, "Your Majesty, what should these prisoners be dealt with? Please tell me."

“It’s all cut.”

Emilys's answer was very simple, but it made everyone's hearts jump. She continued: "All those who participated in the war of usurping the throne were beheaded and displayed in public, and they were deprived of fiefs and surnames, including their families, could not be kept."

"Your Majesty!" Ding Laji was shocked, "Is it too much to kill at least two thousand people?"

"Hmph..." Emilys' eyes were cold and she said in a low voice: "In the war of usurping the throne, the enemy's butcher knife never showed mercy. No one who had dragon blood flowed in his body, even a few, survived, and there were vassals and lords and people loyal to the Drogonburg family. How many people do you think they killed?"

Ding Laji couldn't answer, but he thought that the number must be more than 50,000!

In order to completely eliminate the influence of the dragon descendants and prevent the Drogonburg family from counterattacking, the army under Mark launched a half-month purge, blood flowing into a river, leaving a horrifying record in the king's leadership. People still can't help but feel disgusted when they mention it.

Dinlaji didn't dare to answer this question either.

Because the person who decided to kill and completely carry out the massacre was his father, Duke Dance. Now Duke Dance is dead, he is afraid that Her Majesty the Queen will take her anger to the Dance family.

"Donald Brandon is going to be executed, too?" Dinlaji asked with a different question.

Emily nodded without hesitation.

The dukes and princes present were all slightly worried. Although they had already guessed the result, they were still a little scared when they were truly sure.

Execution of a duke, or a legendary high-level extraordinary person, is unique in Congatro's history.

Before the war of usurping the throne, the battles between the nobles were never broken. The seven major families maintained a tacit understanding and at most cede land and paid compensation, which rarely involved the life and death of the lord, let alone the life and death of a duke.

The war of usurping the throne broke this unspoken rule, just like letting out the demon in the abyss and never being able to look back.

When Duke Brandon died, the blood feud between the two families became deeper.

Unless any family perishes in the future, this hatred will never be resolved, but it is Mark and his allies who break the rules first, and His Majesty's revenge is beyond reproach.

Duke Brandon had a great reputation among the people of Congatro, was generous and fair, but he was the main force in overthrowing the Drogonburg Dynasty. It was precisely because of his support and led the Ice Wolf Knights south, and with Mark's army to attack the Dragonborn's army on both sides, besieging the royal capital Kingsland.

The three giants of Mark's rebels, one is Duke Etis, who is the think tank among the three, but he is already dead and can only count the new and old hatreds on Duke Brandon.

Seeing that Emilys was determined, everyone did not dare to persuade her again, so as not to make her unhappy.

Dinlaji hesitated for a while and asked with courage: "Your Majesty, Cost has not been involved in the matter back then. Can he spare his life?"

Emilys looked at her counselor with a little hesitation in her eyes.

After a few seconds, she said, "Are you sure you want to plead for him?" Before Ding Laji answered, she said, "I originally intended you to inherit the position of Duke of Dance. If Cost does not die, he will be your greatest threat in the future."

Ding Laji was stunned when he heard this.

His face was very complicated. As the son he hated and even hated the most, his father was expelled from the family. He never thought that he would one day inherit the throne of duke.

The entire Dance Principality knew that Cost was the only heir.

Even though he had conquered the Principality of Dance with his army these days, he never thought that he would be recognized by his family and the people. After all, the impression he gave when he was young was too bad.

Perhaps in the eyes of the tribe members, I am just a villain now and am not worthy of the title of duke.

Ding Laji's expression was gloomy and sunny, and there seemed to be a voice in his heart that tempting him. As long as he didn't care about Cost and was executed, he could become Duke Dance. With His Majesty's support, it would be useless no matter how many people oppose it, and they could easily suppress it.

But I thought of Cost's concern for him, and he was the only person in the family who really treated him well.

All the past flashed through Ding Laji's mind.

"No..." Ding Laji's voice was a little hoarse, and he said with a struggle: "I don't want to be Duke of Dance. Please let Cost live for my sake. I have already interrogated it. He was not aware of the rebellion of the Dance family this time. It was all my father's idea, and he was also kept in the dark."

He seemed to have used all his strength to say this.

Everyone in the Dragon Hall looked at him with admiration. In this world, there are really people who can reject the temptation of the title of duke!

You know, Your Majesty has always been willing to appoint Ding Laji as the former Prime Minister.

With one person as a man, Dinlaji's position in Congatro in the future is second only to His Majesty and Rennes.

Emilys looked at Dinlajiroku for a long time and finally nodded.

"Okay." She agreed, "If Cost wants to survive, he must pay a 10 million dragon ransom, as well as four territories bordering the Principality of Fort Drogon, and…" She paused, "I want one of his hands, right hands."

Ding Laji almost jumped up, and these three conditions were more ruthless than the other.

Pay compensation, cede land, and break your hands!

Moreover, Emilys designated Cost's right hand, which is his sword-holding hand. Once cut off, his strength will drop by more than 30%.

Cost is a legendary high-level extraordinary person with strong self-healing ability, but he cannot be reborn after the broken limbs. Even if he goes to the empire to ask the legendary priest of the Earth Church to perform the "recovery technique" above the seventh ring and grow his right hand again, it will be difficult to restore his previous strength.

This will also affect Cost's cultivation, and it is probably impossible to upgrade within decades.

Obviously, His Majesty is still guarding against the Dance family and wants to kill Cost's potential.

Ding Laji subconsciously wanted to object, but he ran into Emilys' cold gaze, opened his mouth, and finally said only one word: "Yes."

Next, Emilis continued to tell her plan.

The Principal of Attis ceded five territories and incorporated them into the Drogonburg family. With the four territories of the Duchy of Des in the west, the Principal of Drogonburg became the second largest principal in Congaterro, second only to the Principal of Brandon. Because the Principal of Brandon had no borders, the territory was barren and cold, and almost worthless, there was no need to cede land, but compensation could not be reduced.

Emilys only asked for five million golden dragons and allowed them to be paid in ten years.

The entire Principality of Brandon has only a population of more than three million, and its production is sparse, so it can't afford such money at all. Even if you only pay 500,000 Golden Dragons every year, it is like a mountain pressing over the Brandon family, making the Principality breathless.

This is exactly the result that Emilis wants, and he will harshly exploit the enemy's territory and people.

If she hadn't been afraid of the gods, she would have completely destroyed these three families and would never give them a chance to breathe.

The meeting in the Dragon Hall lasted for two hours. Rennes said nothing from beginning to end, watching Emilis show ruthless measures on the Iron Throne.

She is already a qualified queen.

After the meeting, he walked out of the Dragon Hall, and the figures of Cadega and Cleos appeared in front of him, with a relaxed smile on both of them.

"How is it?" Renn asked with concern. He thought that the two speakers joined forces to kill Lingfeng Hart, but he almost thought that after three days of use, he almost thought that an unexpected mistake had occurred.

"You can see it yourself."

Cadega took out a soul stone and handed it over.

Renn caught it and saw that there was a blue deer demon soul in the soul stone. More than 20 elements emerged, including the super-absolute element he wanted to see the most "The Infinite Spring Breeze"!
