Chapter 469: Long Hall Meeting

Three days later, in the Dragon Hall.
　　 Amelis sat high on the Iron Throne, looking down at the courtiers under it.
　　 Today, she is wearing an exquisite and complicated silver-white robe, with gold embroidered on the sleeves and neckline, showing an indescribable quality. Her long silver-gold hair curled up, and she wore a simple dragon-shaped crown on her head, setting off her not tall and exquisite body to bring out the majestic king style.
　　Although it hasn't officially ascended the throne, the entire people of Congatro already know that the kingdom is about to usher in a new queen!
　　 In the past three days, the dragon descendant army has marched northward.
　　 Amelis, with centaur and spear wing knights as the main body, as well as half of the wizards and extreme fighters, went straight to the Duchy of Etis and the Duchy of Brandon. Ryan opened the door of the Ethereal Spirit to teleport the army, and it took only half an hour to break the "Flying Eagle City", the capital of Aethis.
　　 The vassals and lords of the Principality of Atis descended even more, surrendering to the Dragonborn.
　　 Then the army took another two days to capture the "Eternal Winter City", the capital of the Principality of Brandon, and several major cities of the Brandon family. When the Dragonborn army arrived in Everwinter City, the Brandon family had not even received the news that Mark was dead.
　　 Ding Laji also led an extraordinary army to the west and successfully took down the Principality of Dans, which was headless.
　　 So far, the Dragonborn has conquered the entire territory of Congatro.
"Everyone," Emilys swept across the people in the Dragon Hall, and stayed on Ren's body for half a second, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, and said triumphantly: "Now is the time to discuss how to deal with it. Captives, and the rule of the entire kingdom in the future."
　　 There are a dozen people under the Iron Throne, all of whom are important figures in the Dragonborn camp.
　　 Hearing what Emilys said, people were all refreshed and knew that the time had come to distribute the benefits. In particular, the dukes and princes of the major families of Congatro, and the legendary supernatural beings, some people are eagerly looking forward to it, some are worried, and their expressions vary.
　　 However, Emily waited for a few seconds without a response.
　　 She frowned slightly. It was clear that these people except Rennes might be trying to figure out their own thoughts. If they did not speak, they would not stand up.
　　 Even Varogen, who has been following for many years and loyal, remained silent.
　　 "Let’s talk about the disposal of the captives first." Emily said by name: "Valogen, you can submit the list of those captives and let everyone listen to it."
　　 "Yes, Your Majesty."
　　 Varogen stood up, saluted the queen on the throne respectfully, and then turned around and said one by one.
This list is very long. The head is the Duke of Brandon and Koster of the Dans family, and the rest are the vassal lords under Mark. Most of them are the heroes who overthrew the Drogenberg dynasty. Of course, from Emilys The angle is the traitor and the enemy.
　　Everyone on the list is a famous figure in the kingdom, and many more have been killed in the war in the past few days.
　　 Varogen did not look at the records, but reported the names, families and past experiences of these people from memory, and it took half an hour to finish.
　　 After he finished speaking, he sat down again.
　　 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 unpleasant memories of her.
　　 Everyone looked at each other, not daring to be the first to speak.
　　 Ding Laji couldn't help it anymore, and got up and asked: "Your Majesty, what should I do with these prisoners, please show me."
　　 "It's all cut."
Emilys’s answer was simple, but it made everyone’s heart beat. She continued to say: "Anyone who participated in the war of usurping the throne in those years should beheaded and deprived of their fiefs and surnames, including their families. stay."
　　 "Your Majesty!" Ding Laji was shocked, "This will kill at least two thousand people. Is it too much?"
"Huh..." Emilys' eyes were cold, and she said quietly: "During the usurpering war, the enemy's butcher knife never showed mercy. Those with dragonborn blood in their bodies, even if only a few, survived. There are also vassal lords and people loyal to the Zhuo Gengbao family. How many people do you think they killed?
　　 Ding Laji couldn't answer, but he expected that the number must be more than 50,000!
In order to completely wipe out the influence of the Dragonborn, lest the Zrogenberg family forces counterattack, Mark’s army carried out a half-month-long purge, blood flowed into rivers, and left a shocking record in the king’s collar. People now mention I still can't help but change in color.
　　Ding Laji did not dare to answer this question.
　　Because at that time, the person who decided to kill the killer and completely execute the massacre was his father, Duke Dance. Now that the Duke of Dance is dead, he is afraid that Her Majesty will anger the Dance family.
　　 "Does Duke Brandon have to be executed too?" Ding Laji asked, changing the subject.
　　 Emily nodded without hesitation.
　　 The several dukes and princes present were all stunned, even though they had already guessed the result, when they were really sure, they were still a little frightened.
　　 Execution of a duke, or a legendary high-level transcendent, is unique in the history of Congatro.
　　Before the war of usurpation, the struggle between the nobles was always unbreakable. The seven families maintained a tacit understanding and cede land for compensation at most, rarely involving the life and death of the lord, let alone the life of a duke.
　　 The usurpering war broke this unspoken rule, just like releasing the demon in the abyss, and can never look back.
　　 When Duke Brandon died, the blood feud between the two families deepened.
　　Unless any family dies in the future, this hatred will never be resolved, but it is Mark and his allies breaking the rules first, and your majesty's revenge is beyond blame.
　　 The Duke of Brandon has an excellent reputation among the people of Congatro. He is generous and unbiased. However, he is the main force in overthrowing the Zhuo Gengbao dynasty. It was precisely because of his support and led the Ice Wolf Knights to go south, and Mark's army double-sided against the Dragonborn's army, besieging Kingslan, the capital of Kingsland.
　　 The three big rebels of Mark, and one is the Duke of Etis. He is the think tank of the three, but he is dead, so he can only count the old and new hatreds on the head of Duke Brandon.
　　 Seeing that Emilys was determined, everyone did not dare to persuade her again, so as not to upset her.
　　 Ding Laji hesitated for a while, and boldly asked: "Your Majesty, Coster did not participate in the things that year, can you spare his life?"
　　 Amelis looked at her counselor with some hesitation in her eyes.
After a few seconds, she said: "Are you sure you want to intercede for him?" Before Ding Laji answered, she said again: "I intended you to inherit the title of Duke Dans. If Kost does not die, he will be Your greatest threat."
　　 Ding Laji was stunned.
　　 His face is very complicated. He was expelled from the family as the son his father hated or even hated the most. He never thought that he could one day inherit the throne.
　　 The entire Duchy of Dan knows that Koster is the only heir.
　　 Even if he took the army to conquer the Duchy of Dans these days, he never thought that he would be recognized by his family and the people. After all, he had a bad impression of himself when he was young.
　　Perhaps in the eyes of the clansman, he is just a small man, not worthy of the title of Duke.
Ding Laji’s expression was cloudy and uncertain, and there seemed to be a voice in his heart tempting him. As long as he was executed regardless of Koster, he would become the Duke of Dans. With the support of his majesty, it would be useless for the people to oppose him. , Can be easily suppressed.
　　 But I think of Koster's concern for himself. He is the only person in the family who is really good to him.
　　 All the past, flashed in Ding Laji's mind.
"No..." Ding Laji's voice was a little hoarse, and his face struggled and said: "I don't want to be Duke Dans, please look at my love, and spare Coster's life. I have already interrogated this. He didn't know the treachery of the Cidans family, it was my father's idea, and he was kept in the dark."
　　 He seemed to have exhausted all his strength before saying this.
　　Everyone in the Dragon Hall is admiring. In this world, there are people who can actually refuse the temptation of the duke title!
　　 You know, His Majesty has always intended to appoint Ding Laji as the former Royal Prime Minister.
　　 As a single person, concurrently serving as the Duke and Prime Minister, Ding Laji's future status in Congatro will be high, second only to His Majesty and Rennes.
　　 Amelis looked at Ding Laji for a long time, and finally nodded.
"Okay." She agreed, "Kost must pay a ransom of 10 million Golden Dragon to survive, as well as the four territories bordering the Principality of Zhuo Gengbao, and..." She paused, "I want his money. One hand, right hand."
　　 Ding Laji almost didn't jump up, and these three conditions were tougher than one.
　　 Indemnity, cede land, and cut off hands!
　　 And Emilys designated Coster’s right hand, which was his sword-handling hand. Once it was cut off, his strength dropped by more than 30%.
Coster is a legendary high-level transcendent who has strong self-healing ability, but he cannot be reborn with severed limbs. Even if he went to the Empire to ask the legendary priest of the Earth Church to perform the "body restoration technique" of more than seven rings and grow his right hand again. It is difficult to restore to the previous strength.
　　 This will also affect Koster's training, and I am afraid that it will not be possible to upgrade in decades.
　　 Obviously, His Majesty is still guarding against the Dans family, trying to stifle Koster's potential.
　　 Ding Laji was about to object subconsciously, but ran into Amelis’ indifferent gaze, opened his mouth, and finally only said one word: "Yes."
　　 Next, Emilys continued to tell her plan.
The Principality of Etis ceded five territories and merged into the Drognborg family. With the addition of the four realms of the Duchy of Dans to the west, Drognborg became the second largest principality in Congatro, second only to Bran. Dukedom. UU reading www. uukanshu.com and the Principality of Brandon has no borders and its territories are barren and cold, almost worthless, so there is no need to cede land, but compensation cannot be less.
　　 Amelis only asked for five million golden dragons, and was allowed to pay in ten years.
　　 The entire Principality of Brandon has only a population of more than three million, and the production is so sparse that it can't afford such money. Even if only half a million golden dragons are handed in every year, it is like a mountain on the head of the Brandon family, making the principality unable to breathe.
　　 This is exactly what Emilys wanted, squeezing the enemy's territory and people severely.
　　 If it were not for the fearful god, she would definitely eliminate these three families directly, and would never give them a chance to breathe.
　　The meeting in the Dragon Hall lasted for two hours. Reyn didn't say a word from beginning to end, watching Emily show her fierce tricks on the Iron Throne.
　　 She is already a qualified queen.
　　 After the meeting, he walked out of the Dragon Hall, and the figures of Kaedeja and Cleos appeared in front of him, with a light smile on their faces.
　　 "How is it?" Renn asked with concern. He originally thought that the two Speakers were able to kill the Lingfeng Stag with their hands. He didn't expect it to take three days and almost thought that he had accidentally missed it.
"look by youself."
　　 Kaidejia took out a soul stone and handed it over.
　　 Rehn took a look, and there was a demon soul of a cyan giant deer in the soul stone. More than twenty elements emerged, including the transcendence element he most wanted to see, "Endless Spring Breeze"!
