The Knight King of the Otherworldly Moon

"This is the backhand I told you before." Lucifer said seriously.

"King, as the Prime Minister, I have to remind you that I am also a noble, and one of the largest nobles in this kingdom." Semiramis did not answer directly at the moment, but smiled slightly.

There are not only four dukes in this country, there are nine dukes in total, but the other five are not as famous as them.

"Do you really care about that kind of thing? Well, even if you care. You are my Prime Minister, once these laws are enforced. You will become a real existence under one person, above ten thousand people. What? It's better than you are now maintaining that territory alone, and it's better to deal with those old guys." Lucifer also smiled.

After a year of getting along, Lucifer almost understood what the four of them were like.Especially Semiramis, perhaps the only one among the four Grand Dukes who would never object to this proposal.

If Wang Yingming puts all the power in one person, it will undoubtedly bring the whole country to a bright and glorious pole.

Even if you don't talk about it, it's in terms of power.Although Lucifer abolished the real power of the nobles, he gave Semiramis more power.Just like now, those old nobles will still show her face here, and there are five other grand dukes like them.

But once the reforms were completed, her prime minister would truly be under Lucifer.

"Yeah! That's right! I need to discuss it with the other three people." Semiramis did not answer immediately, but prepared to discuss with the other three archdukes.

After all, this is a big deal, and if you don't ventilate in advance, you won't be able to cooperate later.Judging from the content of this decree, there will definitely be a rebellion within Britain in the coming year.This also requires the three of them to prepare in advance.

"No problem! After the restructuring, each of you has a job in it. Believe me, it's definitely much bigger than what you can currently master."

"Aren't you worried that they will be cornered and lead the rebellion?"

"If they rebel, it just proves that the existence of nobles is the source of the country's unrest, and I have the power and obligation as a king to eradicate them. If they don't rebel, it can minimize their harm. Besides, you forget us Is there the current inheritance law?" Lucifer smiled and said a mortal situation.

This is the benefit of having great righteousness.If they do it, it proves that they have a problem, and they have to solve the problem themselves.If they don't do it, they will never have the chance to do it in the future.Simply put, whether or not martial arts will have to be abolished.

"Oh! It's interesting. In this way, we don't need to do anything at all, and they will become chaotic within themselves. Civil turmoil often means crime, and then the king will also have the right to send troops to stop it. No matter how they choose, they will lose their current position. everything."

"Simply put, checkmate!" Lucifer took out a chess piece and placed it on the chessboard on the table.

Yes, the current situation was decided from the beginning.Because of the existence of the previous grace decree, many of the sons of the nobles have begun to look forward to their future lives.After all, you see, originally they could not inherit anything, but suddenly the king told them that they could inherit some territory, and of course they thought it was theirs.

At this time, if the head of the nobles rebelled, the sons might not agree first.After all, let’s not say whether they can succeed or not. Even if they succeed, if the previous decree is repealed, they will immediately have nothing.

A decree a year ago has caused problems within these nobles, and now Lucifer is just detonating this problem in advance. *

no.56 Another year (for tickets, for flowers)

Time flies, another year.In this year, apart from the establishment of the academy gradually getting on the right track, what Lucifer did the most was to lead troops to suppress the rebellion.

There were seven rebellions in one year, except the most powerful first.The other times were just farces, and even the last time, before Lucifer's army arrived, they fought within themselves, and then opened the city to surrender.

The first rebellion was spearheaded by three dukes, who were also the leaders of the old nobility.Together with many members of the old aristocracy, a total of more than [-] troops have been assembled.But in fact, most of them are just captured civilians, of which there are only more than [-] troops belonging to them.

Lucifer first used countermeasures to make them suspicious of each other, and then deliberately met one of them.This directly made them suspect their own people. After killing each other, Duke Allen finally killed the other two, swallowed their soldiers, and prepared to fight Lucifer.

As a result, needless to say, Lucifer used the undercover he left in advance and held the king's righteousness high, and directly made the soldiers who were captured turn their backs on the spot. He took advantage of the chaos to solve Alan. So far, this game The massive rebellion was immediately disintegrated.

All relevant personnel, according to the crime, were killed, were exiled to labor camps and were exiled.At this point, the king's prestige has been pushed to the peak.The legend of the undefeated king gradually spread in the country, and at the same time, the lower classes and commoners who were liberated because of Lucifer's New Deal also began to sing praises to Lucifer.

On the steed of Britain's Southern Avenue, Lucifer couldn't help but feel that this country still had many advantages of its own.At least many people will put down their weapons after seeing their main generals being killed, which saves Lucifer a lot of effort when suppressing the rebellion, and also minimizes the damage caused by the rebellion.

After a year, the reforms that have been promoted have basically been implemented, and the next step is to ensure its completion.To this end, Lucifer also set up a supervisory court.And in order to determine the effect of the New Deal, Lucifer will lead the knights to inspect various places from time to time.

Before that, he had gone to three places in the north, east and west.After the inspection, he found that the northern and western sides had the best receptive ability to the New Deal, and the eastern side was relatively poor.Especially in the west, which was originally a relatively developed area of ​​commerce, Lucifer's New Deal undoubtedly brought prosperity to them.

These people are also the group that supports Lucifer the most.

At this time, Lucifer couldn't help feeling that it was good to have a capable prime minister.If there was no Semiramis in the royal city, it would take a long time for Lucifer to prepare for running out and patrolling like this.

The current Military Affairs Department is currently jointly led by the three Duke marshals, and of course, the top leader is Lucifer himself.Correspondingly, there is the Financial Secretary.The three divisions of Lucifer replaced the previous chaotic system.

In the south, with the reform of the military system, all the troops here are unified as the Southern Legion and led by Marshal St. George, there is no problem of private soldiers of the nobles in the past.After Lucifer came to the Dragonscale Fortress, he routinely inspected everything here.

Here is the beginning of his fame.The arrival again, unlike before, this time someone went out of the city to welcome him long ago.After staying here for two days, Lucifer set off for Shiraishi Fortress.

After two years, White Rock Fortress has been rebuilt and is stronger than before.This fortress is now not so much a defensive stronghold, but rather a transit point and rear.For further away on the Rhine a small fortress was being built, a new stronghold for the defense of the French.

Although the two countries have now reached a truce, everyone knows that once the truce time passes, the two countries will burn again.

Lucifer came to the newly built splendid fortress, and he found that Siegfried was in charge of the fortress overseer.After the inspection, Lucifer let the knights rest, and he took Arturia away for a short walk outside.

Although the knights are a little worried about this decision, considering that Lucifer is currently called the strongest knight in Britain, and Arturia who defeated Gawain to become the round table chief before the first half of the year, they don't think so. What security issues will there be.

Interestingly, the current Artoria, along with the other three archdukes, is called the Four Horsemen of the King by others.Compared with two years ago, she has indeed matured a lot.

Walking along the avenue, they came to a hillside covered with flowers.Although the flowers here are just wild flowers that can be seen everywhere, they seem to symbolize the new life of this country.Along the way, they also saw some peasants who were busy with farming. The eyes these people looked at these two strange knights were no longer the horror they used to be, but sincere respect.

They sat together on the turf and looked at the scenery in front of them.Not far from the end of the avenue, you can also see a small town.

"Time flies so fast. Under the leadership of Wang, this country has really become completely different from before. I can see hope in their eyes now." At this moment, Lucy, who Arturia was leaning against On Phil's shoulders, she didn't have her hair in a braid like before, her golden hair spread out, giving her a little girlish aura.

Since getting the scabbard, her body has been stuck two years ago, and maybe it will.She didn't regret it, and she didn't mean much to worry about it.

"I just gave them something to work towards."

In the past, there were various taxes in this country, and the nobles would steal from time to time. Ordinary people had to work hard for it, but it was difficult to survive.This has disappeared since Lucifer became king.

Not only can the commoners be fed and clothed, but the intensity of labor is not as much as before, and some people can even accumulate some money to send their children to school.

Although the new decree is only over a year old, many people have already started calling Lucifer the wise king.Although most of the time it is still called the King of Knights.

Arturia also understood this.During this period of inspection, she saw a lot.She once said to Merlin that everyone was smiling happily, as long as that was enough.Now, what was once a dream has become a reality.And she became one of them.

"Everyone has been living in the shadow of war before, and because of this, the hope in front of you is precious. If there is no war from now on, everyone's smiles can be kept forever."

"If there is a day, I feel that I can be much more relaxed. Unfortunately, the country next to me will not watch the play because I don't do it."

"As long as there is a king, this country will not disappear, we all believe so."

"Although I have heard too many words like this, I still find these words very pleasant to say from your mouth, Leah. Speaking of which, it's been a long time since we walked alone together like this." Between the words, Lucifer He turned his face to the girl beside him. *

no.57 Love is a talent (for tickets, for flowers)

No matter how many times you look at the side of the girl that catches your eye, you won't get bored.

As if feeling Lucifer's gaze, a hint of red gradually appeared on Arturia's face.Even though their bodies and minds had been frank with each other, there was no secret, but when she faced Lucifer's eyes, she would lower her head unconsciously, and a girl's unique expression appeared on her face.

Gawain and the others used this expression to make fun of him, and then... and then Gawain lost his position as the chief of the round table.It was also the first time that the other round tables had seen the strength of Arturia, the right hand of the king.

"If the master wishes, I can go with you at any time."

"Then let's go! Go to this piece of land that has just been recovered!" Without continuing to tease the girl in front of him, Lucifer took her hand and walked towards the avenue under the hillside.

When they walked down the hillside, a magical light flashed on their bodies, and the silver-white armor turned into magic and disappeared into the air, replaced by the casual couple's casual clothes that they would wear on secret dates.

As they wandered, they saw some French and Britons communicating normally.This scene made Leia somewhat surprised, and her face was more of a smile.

"The line between the French and the Britons on the border is not as clear as it is in the royal city."

"This is probably because the border has always been in a concentrated area of ​​war and chaos. In many cases, a ruler may change within a few days. Although war is terrible, it can also accelerate the integration of culture and nation in a sense." Lucifer Er calmly talks about a possibility.

In war, it may even be the people on the frontier who are the first to merge with each other.Although they endured the pain of war, they also learned the wisdom to survive in war.Just like in the royal city, French people, even French merchants, will be treated with prejudice.

Here, people from two countries can become friends.As the living environment changes, people will also change.

"But this heavy price is also borne by everyone."

"If possible, Leah would prefer to be able to complete the integration in a peaceful way."

"After two years of getting along with Lucier, I have gradually come to understand that the gentle way may seem beautiful, but it may never be realistic."

Although the maiden is a true knight with the virtues of a knight, she is not a Virgin in the traditional sense, and she has never been naive.

And her innocence that she still maintains after going through the purgatory of war is Lucifer's favorite place.

"Don't think too much, some things will only give you a headache. You are my sword, as long as you fight for me, as for the people and the country, that is my scope. This was not decided from a long time ago Is it something?" Between the words, Lucifer grabbed the girl's hand and couldn't help but strengthen a little.

He looked at the girl knight beside him, and Leah was looking at him at the same time.When they looked at each other, they could see each other's heart.

"Well. I always thought that the luckiest thing in my life was to meet Lucier, and I've always thought that way."

"Maybe you should use the word happiness."

"Yes, happiness."

For a time, an invisible silence filled them.The smell of the soil in the breeze, the familiar touch between the fingers, the repeated walks, the conversations like normal, the scenery that can be seen everywhere, you should have been used to it, but everything in front of you is so clear and different. .

After a while, Lucifer gradually woke up from the fairy tale atmosphere.

"Lea, do you really want to stay by my side as a knight instead of being a queen?" He asked a question that had been asked many times before.

And this time the answer is no surprise.

"Lucier has asked this question a lot. My answer is still the same as before. Please don't continue to ask, this is the only restraint I have as a knight."

Leah is also very aware of Lucifer's intentions. In the past two years, many people have suggested that Lucifer take a concubine or queen first. Even before, the old nobles would introduce their daughters to Lucifer. Er, even holding a dance or something.

In response, Lucifer dismissed him as the country was not stable yet.Now that the country is basically stable, Lucifer's marriage will be put in front of everyone again.And this is also the last chance for Arturia.

Arturia wanted to serve Lucifer as a knight instead of staying in the harem as a good girl.In her heart, she also subconsciously thought whether the knight should become the mistress, this is arrogance.

"A knight's restraint. This is also one of Leah's lovely things." Lucifer didn't insist on saying anything.

She wanted to live on as a knight, and she didn't want to dim her light.Although she would definitely accept it with words such as orders now, it's okay to think about it.

"Cute or something, I don't..." Arturia's voice became a little smaller.

"Well, the expression that is slightly shy now is also very cute. It is because Leah usually has a serious expression on her face, so the relaxed girly style is particularly charming."

"That...that, in Lucier's words, which one do you prefer?"

"Me? Leah, have you heard a word?"

"what?"

"Children only make choices. Of course, adults like it. When she is serious, Leia has a cold and heroic beauty, and the girly Leia is more like a eldest lady who is not familiar with the world. By the way , the question you just asked was very girly in love!"

The last joke of Lucifer's words made Arturia very happy.

"really?"

"Of course."

"That's great. Actually, I didn't have any confidence in my relationship with Lucier. Before I met Lucier, I didn't even think that I could like someone, and I never thought that I was still in love. The ability. Just before I have been thinking, whether I am a qualified love object. "

Arturia has never lacked confidence in herself, whether it is swordsmanship, the ability to lead the army, or even the ability to handle affairs.But when facing Lucifer, she still felt a little guilty subconsciously.

"You know, Leah. Liking is an innate talent, either born or never."
