The 345th Festival Palace Surprise
Chapter 345 Palace Surprise
After agreeing to Long Yan's extortion, Grand Duke Bainiao went back to raise money in frustration. However, Long Yan and the others ran back to celebrate happily. This time, except for all the expenses, Long Ling could almost have hundreds of thousands of gold coins in the account, which was almost equivalent to their annual territory income. How could they be unhappy?
In general, the most unlucky one in this incident was Grand Duke Shirato, and the ones who took the most advantage were Lao Xie and Dragon Corner. Lampard also took a little advantage, but he also offended Lao Xie while taking the advantage. Compared with that little money, it is hard to say whether it is a bonus or a bad luck!
Griffin Kingdom, Palace Dinner.
The lively hall was filled with singing and laughter, and pairs of men and women danced gracefully on the dance floor. After dancing for two hours, His Majesty the Emperor finally got a little tired and had to return to his seat for a while. The other ministers naturally had no time to enjoy themselves, so they gathered in front of His Majesty and chatted and laughed with His Majesty.
But at this moment, a clerk arrived hurriedly with a document, bowed and took it out, and the emperor said, "Your Majesty, this is the urgent document I just received!"
"Oh!" The emperor sighed in disappointment and couldn't help complaining: "Can't you tell me to have a relaxed time?"
"Yes, yes, Your Majesty has been working hard for a day. What's the big deal? "Frank, the August family, immediately said dissatisfied with the clerk: "Will you come back tomorrow?" Obviously, he was flattering the emperor.
Of course, the clerk did not dare to contradict the duke of Frank, so he had to say helplessly, "Yes, then the official will repay you tomorrow!" As he said that, he was about to turn around and leave.
However, the emperor suddenly spoke, "Forget it. Since you have all come, then bring it. Since you have sent it at this time, it must be an urgent matter."
"But,~" Frank wanted to say something, but was stopped by the emperor.
Then the emperor deliberately looked compassionate and said, "Don't say it, work is important, who said I am the emperor?"
Everyone immediately looked moved and kept flattering the emperor. Frank exaggeratedly squeezed out a few tears, praising the emperor's spirit of responsibility with tears in his voice. That vivid look made people wonder if he had practiced in the theater.
While the ministers were performing their heart's content, the emperor also took the document, held the reading in one hand, and picked up the wine glass with the other, intending to take a sip. However, when the emperor saw it halfway, he suddenly stood up excitedly, so that the wine in the wine glass spilled out.
Everyone was startled by the emperor's actions, and the dance hall immediately calmed down. Everyone thought something bad had happened, and they felt a little upset. But they didn't expect that the emperor would actually laugh directly to the sky.
"Haha, haha!" The emperor laughed for a while. Then he stopped laughing, and shouted to everyone with excitement: "Everyone, first of all, please raise your glasses. Cheers to our hero, the little guy from the Stephen family, and his wife, Constantine, the Heglis family!" As he said that, the emperor drank it all by himself. Although the others were inexplicably strange, they did not dare to go against the emperor's wishes, and also drank a drink.
After drinking, Frank, the patriarch of the August family, couldn't help but ask strangely: "Your Majesty, oh, what happened? Why do you call them heroes?"
Frank's tone seemed extremely sad. After all, he, Stephen and the Heglis family, are now rivals. He suddenly felt uncomfortable when he heard that the other party's children became heroes who even the emperor praised and toasted.
After hearing this, the emperor immediately laughed and said, "This is what we will celebrate next. Everyone. I now officially announce that Is and Laner, who originally belonged to the Duchy of White Bird, have already belonged to our Griffon Kingdom from today!"
"Ah!" At this moment, everyone couldn't help but exclaim. You know, Is and Laner are not ordinary cities, but good places with developed commercial and specialty griffins. Even if it is the Griffin Kingdom, there are not many places that can match these two cities. Such two fat sheep were suddenly classified as the Griffin Kingdom by the Grand Duke of White Bird. Who wouldn't be surprised if it were?
Frank first reacted and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, how is this possible? Is Grand Duke Shiraki going crazy?"
"I don't know if Mr. White Bird is crazy, but I know one thing. There is a document authorized by him here, which clearly states that Ice will be given to the little guy from the Stephen family and Laner will be given to Constantine from the Heglis family! The people of the two major families have taken over there at this time, and now they have officially posted a document to me!" The emperor then smiled excitedly and said, "Are these all fake?"
Even an idiot knows that this is definitely not a fight, because if anyone makes such a joke, he will be afraid that he will have to move.
The fat man was the first to react, and immediately stood up, then shouted at the top of his throat: "Long live your Majesty!"
When the fat man shouted, everyone below understood and immediately stood up, shouting loudly, "Long live Your Majesty!"
The shouts of everyone pushed the atmosphere in the hall to a climax. The emperor could not help but be moved by this atmosphere, and his face was flushed with excitement. You know, opening up the territory was a dream for any emperor. Now, without fighting or spending money, he has obtained two wealthy areas at once. Although the management rights are no longer in his own hands, the tax rights are there, and in name it is also the territory of the Griffon Kingdom, which is his territory, and is completely considered the territory of the Griffon Kingdom. With this, it is enough to leave him a fortune in history. You know, the land of the Griffon Kingdom has not expanded for nearly a hundred years. This is the first time he has expanded the territory since he took over the emperor. How could he not be excited?
After enjoying the scene of being cheered by everyone, the emperor gradually calmed down. He waved his hands to everyone and signaled everyone to stop. Then he said with a little dissatisfaction with the fat man: "I said, you hateful fat man, why didn't you tell me about your actions in the Duchy of White Bird? You have to give me a surprise until now after you succeed?"
Although the emperor seemed to be scolding the fat man, everyone knew that this was just a joke, but in fact he had no intention of asking for guilt.
"This~" The fat man was stunned at first, then smiled helplessly and said, "Your Majesty, I actually learned the news just now."
"Yeah? You only know it too?" The emperor immediately said with an incredible look on his face: "What's going on? By the way, Heglis, did you know in advance?"
"Your Majesty, I didn't know this news in advance!" The patriarch of the Heglis family also smiled bitterly.
"Strange, why is this happening?" The emperor immediately said curiously: "Then do you know what's going on? Why did Grand Duke Shiraki give you Is and Laner?"
"Oh!" Heglis hesitated for a moment, then frowned, "I just heard Constantine say that she is busy chasing the robbery of our family. It seems that all the clues point to the Duchy of White Bird. When it comes to this matter, hehe, do you understand?"
"Ah? Could it be that the batch of million-dollar gold coins of you and Stephen's family were robbed by Grand Duke Shiraki?" The emperor said in surprise.
"I don't know this, but~" Heglis paused and said, "From the White Bird's willingness to send Is and Laner out, even if it wasn't for him, it would definitely have something to do with him. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so generous. You know, if it weren't for being forced to the point where there was no way, no one would have sold such a large piece of land. This is simply a traitor!"
"Nonsense!" Frank suddenly interrupted, "Es and Laner are both worth millions of gold coins. Even if your goods were robbed by the Grand Duke of White Beast, it would be enough for him to accompany one. How could he pay two at once? Besides, who is the Grand Duke of White Beast? That's a shrewd guy. Not to mention that he can't do something to rob you, even if he does it, you will never be able to seize his handle. How could he force him to pay Is and Laner?"
"Yes, this seems a bit unreasonable!" The emperor couldn't help frowning.
"Haha!" Heglis smiled slightly and said, "If the Duke of Frank takes care of this matter, it will naturally be impossible to get Is and Laner. However, if the teacher is the one who takes action, I would not find it strange if the Grand Duke Shiragoon paid half of the Duchy of Shiragoon!"
The teacher refers to the old wizard. Heglis is also a magician. He once studied under the old wizard, so he called it this way. Others also know that in fact, the old wizard is too famous and has a high status. Many people with identities call him a teacher, and even the emperor is no exception.
