Building a New World

Chapter 422 Grand Duke Farley

Jia Zhengjin could actually tell that the ministers of Bolivia wanted to establish a greater connection with the Holy Dragon City through this method! If the new Grand Duke is chosen by himself, it means that this regime is connected with him!

If Sacred Dragon City defeats the Imperial Coalition Forces, then they will be able to gain greater benefits and national space; The coercion of Sacred Dragon City is a last resort! At most, the new Grand Duke will be replaced, and they will still be able to retain power!

Although he knew the dirty thoughts in their hearts, Jia Zhengjin didn't tell the truth. After all, this is human nature! If there is not enough interest, these ministers of civil and military affairs and members of the nobles are so full that they let themselves choose someone?

In this case, he was no longer polite, and immediately nodded and asked, "Do you really want me to choose?"

"Master Keen please decide!" Civil and military ministers responded again.

"Okay then," Jia Zhengjin immediately pointed to Falei, "it's him! This kid is the smartest, I think he can do it!"

Seeing Jia Zhengjin pointing at Baron Farley, Lewis looked back at her grandfather.

General Mark nodded slightly, indicating that this would be the case.

Lewis immediately said: "Baron Farley, congratulations! Lord Keane has selected you, and from today onwards you are the true heir of the next Grand Duke of the Principality of Hales! The enthronement ceremony will be held in a week, please stay here first Follow the teachings of Lord Keen. The rest of the adults, I am sorry! Although you were not selected by Lord Keen, please work hard and continue to contribute your part to the future of the Principality of Hales! Then please Marquis Chico, Viscount Dakai, Viscount Alloy, and Baron Flynn, you four adults, leave with me, and I will send someone to take you home!"

"Brother!" The other children didn't respond, and immediately followed Lewis. Baron Flynn looked at Baron Farley worriedly.

"Brother, you go home first," Baron Farley was not nervous at all, "I will be back soon!"

"Baron Flynn, please!" Lewis urged.

Although he was worried about his younger brother, Baron Flynn remembered what his father said to him before he came out. Now that the Principality of Hales is in the hands of General Mark, he must be obedient when he comes here this time, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous. So after taking a worried look, he could only follow Lewis and leave first.

"Thank you Lord Keen for electing a new Grand Duke for us!" General Mark waited for his granddaughter to leave with the other children, and immediately stood up and said.

"Thank you, Mr. Keen!!" All civil and military officials and noble members stood up.

Only Dolma and the three generals of the elves seemed particularly abrupt.

Jia Zhengjin nodded and did not speak.

"Mark pays homage to Grand Duke Farley!" General Mark then knelt down to the 8-year-old Baron Farley.

"Greetings to Grand Duke Falei!!" All civil and military officials immediately fell to their knees.

Baron Farley turned his head and glanced at Jia Zhengjin, as if asking for his opinion.

This kid is really smart! Jia Zhengjin remembered that most of the children who were the same age as him, or even much older than him, in Sacred Dragon City were mostly playful and very few were sensible. Not as clever as him! Thinking of this, he immediately nodded to him.

After getting Jia Zhengjin's affirmation, Falei turned around and calmly accepted the kneeling of civil and military officials, and said crisply: "Get up!"

"Grand Duke Xie Falei!" General Mark is basically the head of all civil and military ministers here, and everyone is controlled by him alone. He thanked him and stood up, and everyone else followed suit.

"Okay!" Jia Zhengjin said, "Since the candidate for the new grand duke has been decided, there is nothing else to do, right?"

"Lord Keane!" General Mark said hastily, "Can we talk in detail about the things you discussed with Lewis?"

"I discussed it with Lewis?" Jia Zhengjin thought for a while, "You mean city defense construction and bombs and mines?"

"Exactly!" General Mark nodded hastily, "Nowadays, the civil strife in the Duke of Hales is still uncertain, and foreign enemies may invade at any time, so we must have sufficient defensive capabilities! It just so happens that Lord Keene elected a new Grand Duke for us today, why don't we just come here?" How about discussing this with the Grand Duke here?"

Jia Zhengjin glanced at Farley, and thought that no matter how smart this kid is, he is only an 8-year-old kid, and he is actually just a puppet in your hands! What do you want me to talk to him about? I can't talk to him at all, and it's you who make the final decision, okay? Then why not just be a little more straightforward and let you talk to me?

I thought so, but of course I didn't say it out of my mouth: "Is this appropriate?"

"Grand Duke Farley, why don't you sit here!" General Mark stood up and gave up his seat, "Sit next to Lord Keen, so you two can discuss this important matter!"

"General Mark," Farley said, as expected, mature enough, "please sit down!"

"Duke Farley..." Mark was actually a little surprised by Farley's refusal.

After refusing to give up his seat to General Mark, Farley turned his head to look at Jia Zhengjin, and said respectfully, "Master Keen, may I sit with you?"

Hearing this, not only General Mark, but all the ministers of civil and military affairs and even the members of the nobles changed drastically. Although it is said that the throne will be yours sooner or later, is it too impatient? Are you really a child who doesn't understand anything? Still sitting with Master Keene, do you know who he is? Do you know what relationship he has with the Dragon Clan? This is so impolite! In case Master Keen is offended, can the entire Principality of Hales afford it?

Jia Zhengjin didn't know what these people were thinking, otherwise he would definitely say "I think too much!"

He is not so easy to get angry, especially for a child who is only 8 years old, and he doesn't care much about it. So amidst the panicked expressions of the civil and military officials at the scene, they nodded indifferently and moved to the side: "Sit down!"

"Master Xie Keen!" A gleam of joy flashed in Farley's eyes, and he was indeed much more mature than children of the same age. He immediately walked over and sat down in the seat Jia Zhengjin vacated.

The throne is already very big, even two adults can sit on it, not to mention that Farley is only an 8-year-old child? Therefore, it is not crowded at all, but it still feels empty.

Seeing that Jia Zhengjin was not angry, General Mark and the civil and military officials breathed a sigh of relief. Just now, their hearts were hanging in their throats, wondering whether they had just decided on the candidate for the new Grand Duke and they were about to change!

"Okay!" Jia Zhengjin waited for Farley to sit down, turned his head and smiled at him, and then looked at the civil and military officials, "Then let's talk about city defense construction and bombs and mines!"
