I Will Be The Crowned King

"Snapped!"

Sophia, who was about to rush out of the carriage, only felt a pain in her wrist, as if she was stuck tightly by a cold and rusted iron pincer, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't break free.

The girl with half of her body hanging outside turned her head in shock and anger, and looked at the dark carriage behind her; the little maid beside her shivered and curled up in her seat, desperately lowering her hat brim, pretending that she didn't see anything.

"As a father, when my daughter wants to do something that will hurt herself because of impulsiveness, you should give at least a warning."

Luther Franz said softly, the smoke that filled the entire carriage could not stop the sharp eyes under his eyebrows:

"Dear Sophia, I know what you want to do - it's useless work, you won't get anything but disappointment and pain."

"Maybe." Sophia clenched her teeth and snorted softly:

"But as the governor of the colony...if I do nothing now, that's what will make me miserable and disappointed!"

"You were only affected by a momentary emotion." The archbishop slowly raised his head, his voice as flat as ever:

"As long as you calm down, you will understand that this is the best choice-for the kingdom, for Franz...for yourself."

"Before the empire was completely trapped by the colonies, the native land would acquiesce to all actions of Anson Bach. He could do anything recklessly and stir up the native nerves; I can even guarantee that the kingdom from top to bottom will never be the same as before. Any restrictions like the Isir War."

"You can continue the media career you've always wanted to do before, making him and Stormtrooper the heroes of the Clovis Kingdom in the newspapers; and you...you'll be the governor who leads the new world against the tyranny of the empire."

"Honorary Governor!" Sophia laughed angrily:

"I'm also just part of your plan to show the world how much Clovis takes the colony - yes, the more flamboyant and prominent I am, the more convincing the Empire is that Clovis will not Abandoning the colony... isn't it?"

"of course!"

The archbishop's expression gradually became solemn: "But this is also your chance, you will no longer be just the eldest daughter of the Franz family, but the guests of all banquets and gatherings; the Privy Council will invite you to participate in the meeting, the army and the navy. You will be invited to serve as a consultant, and you will even be seated at the Imperial Council..."

"It's just a decoration!"

Sophia laughed at herself: "To you, I'm just a doll marked 'not for sale' on the top of the counter, or a high-quality china that was shown off in a salon - the value is not important, the important thing is that it can be placed there. Make you old-fashioned antiques look trendy and tasteful!"

"Even so, this is still a success." The Archbishop emphasized:

"You have become the first honorary governor of the Clovis Kingdom in all dynasties. In the future, you may even become the second woman, besides the queen, who is qualified to step into the Privy Council and participate in the fate of the kingdom."

"And then, what's the point of that?!"

Sophia's eyes widened: "Isn't it still the same as before, sitting in the corner of the kitchen or living room and silently accepting the decisions you make?!"

"Because I was allowed to enter the smoking room to watch, I would like to thank you all for your acceptance?!"

The girl who looked at each other with all her strength broke free from her father's hand and jumped off the carriage.

Looking at the gloomy Sophia, Angelica, who never spoke, raised her head tremblingly, and couldn't help saying, "Miss..."

"boom!"

Before she could finish speaking, Sophia slammed the door of the carriage shut and looked at her with bloodshot eyes:

"go."

The little maid trembled in fear like a rabbit, hurriedly pulled the reins and drove away.

Looking at the carriage that disappeared into the street, Sophia pressed the brim of her hat, and her face hidden in the shadow quickly regained her composure.

There are two options that she can immediately think of now: inform Anson Bach of the "decision" of the kingdom's top management, or find a way to speed up the intensity and efficiency of investment, and enhance the importance and strength of Beluga Port to the mainland.

But...it's not a good idea.

The former is an unquestionable leak - if the news of this level of decision is leaked, even the identity of the daughter of the archbishop cannot protect himself, let alone use the identity of the honorary governor to gain more power.

The latter perfectly met his father's expectations for him, but no matter how strong the colony was, it was unrealistic to expect a small Beluga Harbor to defeat the empire.

There must be another way to weaken the power that the empire can put into the colonies, and weaken the power that Emperor Herid can hold...Emperor Herid?

Why would I think of Emperor Herrid... No, why would I, the eldest daughter of the dignified Franz family, be so foolish as to regard Emperor Herrid as the entire empire?

This is so stupid, so stupid!

Even in the Clovis Kingdom, there are various factions, the conspiracy of rebellion and the struggle for power and profit have never stopped; why do you subconsciously think that Emperor Herid can suppress the princes under his command and make the entire empire loyal to him? Bow down?

A war that completely destroys the colonies will really not affect the interests of the Grand Duchy and the free city-states under the empire?

For a war that is absurd and has no reason, and has to continue to the present because of the pride of the emperor himself, how willing are those wealthy families to continue to persist without complaint?

And the imperial giants most closely related to the interests of the colonies should be Bernard after "Sea Knight", and... "Holy Grail Knight" Roland!

"The Roland family... They are very powerful in the north of the empire, operating in the ore and leather trade... Well, I seem to have met a Roland at Madam Katarina's salon... Philip Roland, the chief representative of the Northland Chamber of Commerce, The guy who is very interested in railways is him!"

Sophia, who was talking to herself, no longer hesitated, and boarded a passing taxi.

"Go to the headquarters of the Northland Chamber of Commerce!"

………………

New World, Changhu Town.

On April 2, 101 of the saint's calendar, more than ten days after the end of the "Changhu Town Counterattack", the representatives of the colonies invited by Red Hand Bay finally arrived one after another in this empire in the easternmost part of the New World. territory.

The sound of gun salute awakened the sleepy city, when the sun rose from the snow-covered horizon, the roads and houses damaged by the previous war were also rejuvenated with the financial support of the storm division (the treasury of Long Lake Town) and the efforts of the townspeople. Under the light of the morning sun, it is as dazzling as a flat mirror.

The spacious streets are decorated with colorful strips and banners, and the flags of the Ring of Order are hung outside the windows of every household. It was originally planned to hang the King Clovis flag, but considering that the local people in Changhu Town must also be taken care of. In addition to winning over other rebel colonies, the Ring of Order should be the greatest common denominator that can unite all colonies.

In the New World in early spring, it is difficult to get fresh flowers and plants, but it is still easy to get some green plants in the cold zone... When the dusty "VIPs" arrived outside the city, almost all of them were full of vitality, like a garden. The city was shocked.

In front of Changhu Town, it is impossible for people to believe that she experienced a war less than half a month ago.

But when the soldiers of the Storm Division line marched neatly and appeared on both sides of the street in full armor, it seemed to remind them that the city no longer belonged to the empire.

Along with the rhythm of the salute, the soldiers of the storm division who stepped on the drums held their heads high, and the bright bayonets dazzled in the morning sun... The dazzling soldiers passed through the streets, changing in units of platoons. The formation and colorful flags dazzled and shocked the representatives of each colony.

After experiencing the "Beast Slave Rebellion" and forming their own armed forces, the members of the Colonial Council finally no longer have no concept of "army".

Not to mention the uniform uniforms and weapons, the cannonballs that are so rich that they can even be extravagant and wasteful... Just the neat and uniform movements, such as the formation of the arms, and the unobstructed queues in the narrow streets, can make them clearly feel How big is the gap between the army in front of you and the militias they train respectively.

Even though it was clear that the other party was deliberately intimidating and showing off their force, the colonial representatives were still deeply affected, and gradually began to believe the words of the representative of Red Hand Bay, and believed that the Clovis army in front of them might indeed be enough to compete with the imperial army and help them. Earn the desired independence.

They have this idea entirely because the storm division's "parade" routine is copied from the template of the empire - it will fit the tone of a group of imperial colony countrymen, just like the first time a fan participates in a concert and is caught by the scene. The atmosphere is completely shocking and reasonable.

As a late-developing power and absolute "country people" in the old world, the Clovis people have always been in the learning stage in terms of form and rules and regulations; those with high EQ are pragmatism, while those with low EQ have never seen the world and feel good about everything they see. , want to imitate.

The Storm Division, who was born in the former levy, can be called a countryman among the countrymen, but he had the honor to watch the military parade of the Principality of Aiden during the Hantu War before. The picture that the colonial representatives saw is basically that scene. The "fan fandom" of the military parade.

Although there is still a big gap with the "genuine", it is absolutely enough to fool a group of colonists.

So sitting in the carriage, the deputies who were surrounded by soldiers were all pale, and they came to the Changhu Town Council in surprise and joy.

The parliamentary hall, which was severely damaged in the siege battle, has already been renovated at this moment. The roof that had been chipped off by the shells was repaired at once. There was no difference at all. The bright carpet covered the cracks on the floor. The tables were all replaced... Even the walls that were facing the gate and painted with the imperial golden iris emblem were replaced by a huge map of the new world.

When the "VIPs" were amazed in the parliament hall, in the side hall, the representative of Red Hand Bay, who was urgently summoned from Beluga Harbour, was lying on the small coffee table in the smoking room, staring at him with wide eyes. Holding a small note on the table, sweating profusely.

"His Excellency Peter Chatham, we are friends, so I'll give you a chance to explain."

An Sen, whose face was extremely ugly, said solemnly, his right hand clenched into a fist lightly tapped on the table with his knuckles: "Tell me, what's going on?"

"This this……"

"Red Hand Bay, Gray Pigeon Fort, Black Reef Harbor, Winter Torch City... The four colonial councils that claimed to be free from the tyranny of the empire and sought freedom and independence, all accepted the call of the imperial colony chief minister and sent envoys to Sail City. Peace talks?!"

"And Grey Pigeon Castle actually accepted the empire's invitation right away, and didn't even send an envoy to Longhu Town!"

"Do you know how I feel now, I feel that myself... and the whole Beluga Harbor has been deceived." Anson's tone became more and more cold:

"When I decided to form an alliance with Red Hand Bay, I thought we were friends fighting side by side; I told my soldiers and the Beluga Harbor Council that we were not aggression, but to help them seek liberation and independence!"

"Now that this is the case, how do you want me to explain to them, how to explain to the tens of thousands of people in Beluga Harbour who support this war?!"

"me……"

"It's not even the most excessive - other colonies are fine, but among the colonies that accepted the call of the Empire, there are actually representatives of Red Hand Bay!"

An Sen, who became more and more excited, let out a heavy sigh: "Do you know how angry I was when I heard the news?"

"I understand, I understand!"

Pete Chatham understands very well~www.novelmt.com~ because he is also very angry - but it is not the two ends of the Red Hand Bay Council who are angry, but the idiots of such a big thing can still leak the news , put yourself in a dilemma!

Faced with Anson Bach, who had caught the handle, Pete Chatham had no choice at all; at this critical moment of deciding his own life and death, he chose to break the pot.

"...Dear Mr. Anson Bach, until now, I can only drag you out."

After a moment of silence, Pete, who slowly raised his head, said as if he was about to sacrifice his life generously: "In fact, even now, even within the Red Hand Bay City Council... there are still forces loyal to the Empire."

"They are generally rich and powerful mine owners, or have huge plantations and ranches, or run a chamber of commerce, and have a very close relationship with the Empire; I don't know about other colonies, but in Red Hand Bay they only It accounts for one-fifth of the parliament, but more than half of its financial resources!"

"It's only because of the small number of people, and the fact that they hardly participated in the formation of the army, and they refused to send their own family members to become officers to fight the beast slaves and the indigenous people's attacks, which led to the rebellion because they had no right to speak in the militia. Accept the decision of the majority...but privately, they are always in touch with the Imperial Governor of Sail City."

"These people...we call them the 'loyalists'!"
