Chapter 315 My Child, You Will Be Crowned King

Cross Batra, the Grand Duke of Abalon, is a very ambitious man. The Abalon soldiers under his rule have strong horses and strong fighting capabilities.

He has always longed for a larger territory, greater power and voice.

The reason why the Ronitant Kingdom in the south has always been so weak has something to do with the fact that the Grand Duke of Abalon takes his troops out for a walk or two from time to time.

In the eyes of the residents of the Ronitant Kingdom, Grand Duke Abalon is almost equal to the devil in the abyss. His name has a great effect in stopping children from crying at night.

Hodin Gross, the Grand Duke of Matanni and the Lord of Matanni, his territory is located southeast of Alinx and east of Abalon. The territory covers most of the coastal plain and two-thirds of Illros. coastline.

Located on the Shining Coast, the huge port city of Fira is the busiest city for trade among all the cities in the Illrus Empire.

There are trade routes with the Kingdom of Solant, the Empire of Renne, and the Kingdom of Ronitante. Ocean trade with the Eastern Islands is also very frequent. Huge multi-masted sailing ships bring various trade items here day and night. In the city, transport the special products of the Illus Empire...

Although Matani's military power is weaker than that of Abalon, its economic strength is richer than that of the northern territory - Taris.

However, compared to the powerful Abalon Territory and the Matani Territory, the most important thing to the Illros Empire is the Taris Territory, which has a balanced military and economy.

One of the reasons is that Taris Territory has the largest magic metal mine group in the empire. The Spader family occupies an absolute number of magic metal mines here. However, in addition, the royal family has also secretly developed a small number of magic metal mines here. , of course, most of them are magic iron and fine gold, even mithril is very small, and the output is also very low, but it is extremely important for the equipment improvement of the imperial army.

The second reason may be that in order to check the expansion of the power of the great nobles, Gilad Illus, the founding emperor of the Illus Empire, set the rules that the lords of the Taris Territory must be members of the royal family. At the same time, in order to To make up for the loss of royal members giving up their inheritance rights, Taris Territory's taxation is also the lowest among all territories.

And now, the lord of Taris Territory, Nitro Illus, is Victor's uncle. He is 68 years old this year. He voluntarily gave up his inheritance rights and inherited the identity of the lord of Taris Territory.

The Illus Empire has only given away three duchies, but now only the Taris Territory is the one that Victor can trust. This is really ironic.

When the conflict between the royal family and the aristocratic faction became more and more serious, except for the Grand Duke Taris who clearly expressed his support for Victor, the attitudes of the Grand Duke Abalon and the Grand Duke Matani were ambiguous. In a confrontation with the aristocratic faction, their attitude became more subtle.

Now, the Grand Duke of Abalon and the Grand Duke of Mattani went even further, and even failed to meet with Victor on time. The situation suddenly became more complicated.

Tang En frowned and tapped the armrest with his fingers subconsciously: "The Grand Duke Abalon and the Grand Duke Matani are also members of the aristocratic faction?"

"It would be easier to say if that's the case."

Victor shook his head and said with a gloomy look: "The struggle between the royal faction and the aristocratic faction can be said to be an internal fight. No matter what the outcome is, the meat will rot in the pot in the end. I am afraid that they will eat it up and want to rebel..."

Tang En immediately understood what Victor meant: "Are you worried that they are secretly joining forces with a certain country?"

Victor nodded, this was what he was most worried about.

"The Grand Duke Abalon and the Grand Duke Matani may have been delayed due to something. Even if they want to rebel, it won't be a matter of time. There will definitely be signs."

Tang En reminded Victor: "Instead of thinking about these things now, it is better to think about how to contain the power of the aristocratic faction. This is the top priority. If you contain the aristocratic faction, you will have other energy to deal with Abalon and Matan." Ni thing."

"That's right...at least everything is normal now."

Victor could only comfort himself in this way.

"Bang bang."

Victor immediately asked warily: "Who?"

"Father, my mother has been waiting for you in the restaurant for a long time."

"Huh...it's Ollie."

Victor breathed a sigh of relief: "Come in."

Seeing Victor's appearance, Tang En shook his head. The castle had probably been infiltrated by people from the noble faction - it was really tragic for the king to treat him like this.

Alleria opened the door and walked into the study, and then she saw Tang En. The smile on her face froze for a moment, and then she nodded in greeting very naturally: "Earl Tang En, I didn't expect you to be here and want to stay. Do you want to have a meal? Tonight, my mother personally cooked and prepared special Wren’s Wild Bacon.”

"No..."

Tang En stood up and said with a smile: "I'd better not disturb your family reunion."

Ever since he found out that Alleria was Ye Ge, Tang En felt strange when he saw her again.

After all, he tortured a noble princess so hard that he almost completely shattered her dignity...

If it were Tang En, he didn't think he could endure it, but Princess Alleria could endure it, which made Tang En sincerely admire him and make him even more...excited.

Oops, oops...can't be too excited...

Tang En took a deep breath. Before, he could have excused her ignorance, but now that he knew her identity and acted like that, the meaning would be completely different.

After watching Tang En leave, Alleria's smiling face immediately fell: "Father, why are you so nice to him? You clearly know how he treats me!"

"Believe me, Ollie, Dunn will be our hope to save this country."

The expression on Victor's face was very complicated. It was a very heavy burden to hide something like this even from his family.

He patted Alleria's head and said: "I know you are angry and hate him, but I hope that when you see him in this capacity, you will not show it and must be patient... After all, he is not I know Ye Ge is you."

Alleria said with a cross face: "I know, otherwise I wouldn't be smiling just now."

Victor's face was full of complexity, and his eyes were full of haze: "Oli... even my father, I may not be able to protect you. If something unexpected happens in the future, remember my words and go Find Tang En, only he can protect you."

Alleria puffed up her cheeks and said angrily: "I'm not looking for him! Brother, he can also protect me! Besides, father, you are so strong, how could something happen to you? Don't talk nonsense."

"How can your brother have the energy to protect you now..."

Victor shook his head. Gilad was sent to the Third Army of the Empire by him. He has not been back to Yalinx for several years. The father and son have been communicating through secret messages. The name is to train the successors of the Empire. In fact, The purpose is to protect him, but also to allow Gilad to take control of the Empire's Third Army as soon as possible.

The next day, Yalinks, who had just finished the Glory Festival Carnival, suddenly received a wave of "severe crackdowns". People discovered that the tax officials who always liked to beat around the bush and get cards took active action for the first time, almost together. At the same time, they rushed into the carriage shops of the Plani Chamber of Commerce in Yalinx and forced them to check the books and check the taxes.

It was not just the Plani Chamber of Commerce that was audited. After getting Tang En's support, Victor simply stopped doing nothing and brought the entire business alliance into the scope of the audit. It happened that he had reached an agreement with Tang En. The business is going to be a big deal next. If you do it well this time, the hot pot chain will have money...

In addition to the business alliance, the Kadir family also suffered. The shops and entertainment venues they operated were sealed. It was announced that the Kadir family was suspected of tax evasion and therefore needed to check their accounts, but the real reason was clear to Frank. .

This was Tang En's counterattack.

"Have you finally taken your side publicly...ahem!"

Frank, who was enveloped in the thick incense, suddenly coughed violently. After a moment, he took away the handkerchief, and there were dark blood stains on the handkerchief.

Charles and Moulton were shocked: "Father!"

"Why panic!"

Frank, who squinted his eyes, cursed: "Do you think getting power is free? This is a normal reaction."

Charles was still a little worried: "But you..."

"I told you, this is a normal reaction!"

Frank opened his eyes and stared at Charles with his dark eyes. As a son, Charles was so stared at by his father that he broke into a cold sweat. He lowered his head unconsciously and did not dare to look at Frank at all. He could only say submissively: " What you are saying is..."

Frank was very satisfied with his majesty, glanced at Moulton next to him, and shook his head helplessly.

He had fainted from fright.

Frank stood up and said quietly: "Charles, the rest of the family affairs will be left to you."

Charles was startled: "Father, are you..."

"Next, I will fully master this power... When I come out, it will be time for us to settle accounts with Victor."

Frank squinted his eyes, like a Maitreya Buddha. Yes, his face was full of gentle smile, but it made Charles feel cold all over.

My father is becoming less and less like that father.

"At that time, I will be able to obtain the real reward, eternal life, and powerful power!"

Frank said softly: "And you, my child, you will also be crowned king and lead the blood of our Qadir family to glory."

Charles, who was a little scared at first, was immediately moved by what Frank said, and said enthusiastically: "I understand, Father, I will try my best!"

"Very well, then I'm leaving...and cleaning up here by the way."

When the voice came, Frank's figure had already disappeared. Charles glanced at the pile of bones next to the table and felt an inexplicable chill in his heart, but he was quickly suppressed by his fanatical desire...
