Release that Witch - Chapter 534

[Chapter 525 Returning to the Royal Capital]

King’s capital!

After a year and a half, he is back!

Barov looked at the gradually clear blue stone wall, and his heart was agitated.

In fact, since he received the order, his mood has not calmed down. His Highness the fourth prince defeated Timothy as expected, and he did it so cleanly. The result proved once again that no one can resist the army of the lord of the Western Territory .

Of course, it is not appropriate to call Roland the lord of the Western Territory now.

He is now the only only son of Wimbledon III, the heir of the blood line, and the legal heir of the royal family.

The obstacles to enthronement have been swept away.

It is foreseeable that Roland will be crowned king soon.

And he will also become the former prime minister whose power is second only to the king… This joy makes Barov immerse himself in boundless reverie—when those “old friends” who miss him see that he has climbed to their What kind of expression will you show when you are in a high position that you can’t even imagine?

Shocked, jealous, envious, even gnashing your teeth, you have to force a smile and try your best to please?

Just thinking about these scenes made him feel happy physically and mentally.

It would be even better if he could let his former mentor, Minister of Finance Lauren Moore, see this scene.

…

The cement boat slowly docked at the outskirts pier. Barov walked off the trestle bridge, and together with his fellow Kyle Strull and others, they walked through the familiar streets and entered the palace in the inner city under the escort of soldiers from the First Army.

The twin-towered palace is still as majestic as it looks in memory. In the past, he could only look at it from a distance in the hut of the city hall, but now he can enter the palace openly.

Going straight to the tower study, he saw Roland Wimbledon again.

Barov knelt down on one knee with excitement and said, “Your Majesty, the Kingdom of Graycastle is now yours!”

“In fact, not yet. The Eastern Territory and the Northern Territory are still the territory of the remnants of Timothy.” Roland smiled. “Get up, we still have many important things to talk about.”

His expression was the same as before, his tone was calm and approachable, as if he was completely unaffected by his upcoming kingship.

Barov’s attitude became more respectful, he stood up slowly, stroked his chest and replied, “Yes, Your Majesty.”

“The top priority at the moment is to maintain the operation of the capital, which I have already explained in the letter.” Roland poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to him. “Do you have a preliminary plan?”

Barov quickly took the teacup, “It’s not difficult to maintain the current order. You leave those little nobles to me, they will know how to choose the pros and cons. And I brought ten people from the border area The most outstanding disciples, some are proficient in business, some are good at taxation, even if I am not here, with them watching the city hall, those nobles can’t steal anything.” He paused, then added, “But you The left-behind First Army must cooperate with their supervision work, without force as a guarantee, it is difficult for supervision to play its due warning role.”

Roland looked a little surprised, “Don’t you want to stay in the capital?”

“Of course not, Your Majesty,” Barov replied without hesitation, “Neverwinter’s government affairs are much more complicated and important, and I can’t leave for too long, and it would be too exhausting for you to deal with these trivial matters in person. Please let me continue to manage the City Hall of Neverwinter for you, serving by your side is the right thing for me to do.”

He thought very clearly that since His Majesty has decided that Neverwinter is the new capital of Graycastle, it will surpass this city sooner or later—the population and development potential of the former have already left the capital behind. With the launch of the batch recruitment plan, its scale will undoubtedly surpass that of any big city in the Four Kingdoms.

If you stay in the capital, you can experience the wailing of those “old friends”, but you will get tired of hearing it too much, and these wailing will not bring power, but will gradually move you away from the center of power.

Only by frequently appearing in front of His Majesty Roland can he leave a deep impression on him. Barov knew this well.

Roland stared at him with great interest for a while, until he bowed his head guiltyly, and then agreed, “That’s it, but the premise is that the change of city hall officials will not cause chaos in the king’s capital. You should know , I need every single person in the city.”

…

Then His Majesty inquired carefully about the mining and farming and sowing conditions in the Changge District, especially the latter, including whether the serf’s responsibility field division and promotion rules were well explained.

Fortunately, Barov was very clear about Roland’s preference. He had learned about this aspect from Pei Luo in advance, and his answer was so fluent that His Majesty could not stop nodding.

The afternoon passed quickly, and when he finished asking the last question, Roland patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction, “You did a good job, so I can feel relieved when I lead the army outside to fight. Let’s go to dinner first.” , let’s talk about the development plan of Changge District tomorrow.”

“Yes…” Barov hesitated for a while. He found out that the other party had no coronation among so many questions. “Your Majesty, when do you plan to ascend the throne as king and announce it to the world?”

“There is no such plan yet.” Roland replied easily.

“What?” The head of the city hall couldn’t believe his ears, “The sooner this kind of thing is implemented, the better! It can bring you great prestige, UU reading www.sonicmtl.com can also unite the people of the territory Human heart, no harm to you! Why do you-”

“Because of time,” Roland interrupted him, got up and walked to the window, looking at the majestic city at dusk, “I asked the ceremonial officer that a complete enthronement ceremony would take several months to prepare, except for casting gold The crown and the gemstone scepter also need to send invitations to the church and the other three kingdoms, and they can only start after the envoys they send arrive. Even if the Holy City of Hermes, Eternal Winter and Wolfheart are removed, it will take a lot of time just to contact Dawn For more than a month, this will seriously hinder the combat objectives of the second half of the spring offensive.”

“You can simplify the process…”

“The prestige brought by that will be greatly reduced, or even have a negative impact,” he shrugged. “Even Timothy has followed this process. I can’t seem to be more anxious than him. But the ambassador sent to Dawn is very I will leave soon, and I will let him bring the news along with him, and it will not be too late to think about it when we get a definite answer.”

*******************

After Barov resigned, Roland let out a soft breath.

There is another reason he did not explain to the other party, that is, he is deeply influenced by the concept of “accumulating food widely and becoming king slowly”. Now he only occupies one land in the western region, which is less than one-third of what Timothy was when he became king. However, it would be better for the church to restrain itself before officially attacking the Kingdom of Dawn. It would be troublesome if Hermes targeted himself first—although he was not afraid of openly falling out with the church, he also didn’t want to create hatred for others.

Then he called Kymer Struer to the study.

I hope that my chief alchemist already has a way to subdue Wangdu Alchemy Association.
