MTL - Steel, Guns and the Industrial Party Across the World-Chapter 606 king finger marriage one
In the king's study of Jingyao Palace, a group of people are gathering here to discuss important matters.
"Your Majesty, how long do you have to wait?"
The Earl of Walsh McKee, one of the important supporters of the current king, asked anxiously the lord sitting on the throne.
"Isn't it planned before? Marrying your sister to a place far away from the power center of the kingdom is good for us, good for her, and more importantly, good for the whole kingdom."
"I..." Aldo King Rodney XVIII's tone was obviously hesitant. He stroked his chin and said softly, "I think this matter needs to respect Catherine's own opinion."
Earl McKee sighed and said: "Your Majesty, although she is a princess, she is still your subject. According to the law, she must obey your orders."
The count looked at the people in the room and said, "Of course, we all know that Her Royal Highness Catherine is a person who is obsessed with the law, and she will definitely obey the orders of her lord and brother."
There was a echo in the room.
"Yes, Your Highness, you can just marry her directly."
"She continues to stay in Jingyao, everyone is worried."
"I hope you will make a wise decision as soon as possible."
The most important person among them is the king's younger brother, Eureko Rodney. He really hopes that his cousin will leave Jingyao soon.
But there are also opposing voices.
"Will doing so now irritate her subordinates?"
"The old king has only passed away not long ago. It's too inhuman to do that."
There were only a few voices against it.
While everyone was discussing, Rodney XVIII did not respond to anyone.
"Gerd." A steady voice came from the window.
Gerd is the official name of King Rodney XVIII before he became king. Now there is only one person who can use this name to call King Aldo—His Majesty's father, Prince Jasim Rodney.
When everyone was discussing the dispute, the prince just stood by the window and watched the scenery, as if he was indifferent to the content of their discussion.
It was not until everyone had expressed their opinion that the prince raised his voice and called the king's name.
"Father, what is your opinion?"
Rodney XVIII looked at the prince who was still standing by the window, and asked with great respect.
Prince Jassim turned around and walked slowly to the king. Rodney XVIII stood up and wanted to give his seat to his father, but the prince pressed his shoulders and sat back down.
"Everyone's worries are justified. Catherine herself is trustworthy, but her supporters are an unstable force. As long as she is in Jingyao for one day, these people will not give up and will rule against you Have a different ambition."
"However, most of her supporters are still in important positions. If they are driven away one by one, it will cause turmoil in the kingdom's government."
"So only by letting Catherine leave Jingyao, and leave Jingyao far away, will her supporters give up and turn their allegiance to you and become your strength."
Rodney XVIII said suspiciously: "Are you sure? Just letting Catherine leave, they can be loyal to me?"
Prince Jassim said affirmatively: "Catherine's departure according to your order will be a signal—she has been loyal to the new king in action and will carry out the orders assigned to her by the king."
"It will be more unmistakable than any verbal oath, especially for her supporters, what can they do if the object of their allegiance is already completely loyal to the king?"
Seeing that his son was still hesitating, Prince Jassim continued:
"Are you worried that someone with an evil heart will take the opportunity to make trouble?"
Rodney XVIII nodded, "Father, as you know, a whole knight order is loyal to Catherine."
The prince patted the king's son on the shoulder, conveying his confidence to him.
"I have already contacted several powerful lords near the king's land. They will lead their troops to Jingyao to provide support for you. If someone takes the opportunity to make trouble, then we will also take the opportunity to get rid of the clown who jumped out."
Rodney XVIII looked at him with some surprise: "Have you contacted the army of the foreign lord?"
The prince nodded: "Yes, my child, a king should have an army loyal to him."
"Oh, of course, it's just..."
"Just what? My child."
Rodney eighteen glanced at everyone present and said, "It's nothing."
Some things should be discussed with father in private.
He cleared his throat and continued: "In this case, Catherine is a princess and my sister after all. Which family do you think should be married?"
"Fernal family?"
"The Bradley family?"
"The Clifford family?"
…
Several famous big families in the Aldo Kingdom were brought up, of course, they were all from other places. UU reading www. uukanshu.com
But these nominations were rejected by the king with a shake of his head.
In the end, the king himself mentioned one—the Greman family in the Northwest Gulf.
"Greman?"
Prince Jassim chewed on the name mentioned by the king. He knew that his son was very fond of the current master of the family.
Before everyone expressed their opinions, he said: "I recently checked this surname specifically. Graham is indeed an ancient family that has existed since the establishment of the kingdom, but the current title is only an earl. If the royal family directly Members married into this family, isn't it a little wronged Catherine?"
Rodney XVIII looked at the prince and said, "We should focus on the future, shouldn't we? Father, I think I have explained to you clearly what happened in the Northwest Bay. It is a land full of vitality."
The prince nodded, "Oh, this is the second point of my concern. If you think that there is huge potential there, the addition of a member of the royal family with great influence will make this stock Turn potential into strength, are you sure you won't threaten us?"
The king replied: "Count Graham is a loyal and reliable nobleman. If he can become an in-law of the royal family, he will undoubtedly become more reliable. This is very important for the royal family whose influence is now declining."
loyalty? reliable?
A meaningful light flashed in Prince Jassim's eyes.
But in front of many of his subordinates, there were some things he couldn't say outright.
He patted his son on the shoulder and said: "Then do what you want, you are the king now, aren't you? But remember, you have to reserve for any choice you make, I want to use your Wisdom understands this."
Rodney XVIII nodded, "I will, Father."
