Chapter 310 160 Duke of Violet

Chapter 310 -160- Duke of Violet

"What are you still standing there for? Didn't you hear what I said?"

Looking at the unmoved Violet Knight, the Third Prince frowned and his expression turned cold.

However, the next moment, the knights suddenly stepped forward and surrounded him.

The Third Prince was stunned.

He immediately became alert and shouted:

"What... do you want to do?"

The Violet Knight still didn't answer.

They drew their weapons and surrounded the Third Prince and others. Some knights stepped forward and directly seized the soldiers' weapons, while others pointed their weapons directly at the Third Prince.

The Third Prince was immediately angry:

"What are you going to do? Rebellion?! Don't you know who I am?"

This time, the Violet Knights finally reacted.

The knights moved aside to both sides, and a Violet Knight who looked like the leader came out.

He came to the third prince and said calmly:

"Your Highness, we certainly know who you are."

"You have seriously violated many important provisions of the Sacred Code and the Royal Contract. According to the provisions of the Code and the Treaty, we have the right to temporarily disarm you. Please do not resist."

The third prince was stunned for a moment, and then he said angrily:

"Are you crazy?! I am the Prince of Crescent Moon! The second heir to the throne! The grandson of the Duke of Violet!"

"Which family are you from? Who gave you the courage to attack me? Are you going to be enemies with the royal family and the Buat-Lint family?!"

The knight leader glanced at him and said calmly:

"We do not belong to any lower noble family, but are the direct knights of the Duke. "

"It was not us who ordered you to disarm, but the Duke."

"Your Highness, please cooperate a little, otherwise we will have to be a little rough."

After hearing what the knight leader said, the third prince was stunned for a moment:

"Duke... Grandfather?"

He widened his eyes and shook his head in disbelief:

"No! This is impossible! How could Grandfather give such an order? !"

"Fake! What you said must be fake!"

But the knight leader had no interest in continuing to entangle with the third prince, but waved his hand and ordered the other knights:

"Your Highness is not very emotional, tie him up and send him to the carriage."

Hearing this, the tall and strong extraordinary knight immediately took action and walked towards the third prince.

The third prince's expression changed drastically.

He immediately struggled and said in panic:

"No! You can't do this!"

"I am the third prince of Xinyue! I am the second heir to the throne! You are violating the royal authority!"

"I want to go to Lint City! I want to see my grandfather!"

"..."

Looking at the terrified and cowardly third prince, the knight leader's eyes flashed with contempt.

"Your Highness, you will have a chance to meet the Duke."

"Of course, we don't know whether the Duke is willing to see you."

As he said, he called the knights to tie the third prince to the carriage.

"No! No--!"

"You bastards! I will remember you!"

"When I ascend the throne, I will definitely kill you! Kill you!"

The third prince kept roaring, cursing, and struggling, but was eventually controlled by the extraordinary knights and "sent" to the carriage.

...

Violet Principality, Lint City.

In the deep and solemn castle, an elderly noble in a dark purple noble robe was standing in front of the flower bed, trembling and watering the flowers.

He looked about 70% similar to Count Lint, but he looked older and more majestic, especially his silver-gray eyes, which were turbid and vicissitudes.

Joffrey de Boit-Lint.

He is the patriarch of the Boit-Lint family, the current Duke of Violet, and the court adviser of the Crescent Kingdom.

As one of the nine powerful dukes of the Crescent Kingdom, he is also responsible for commanding the most powerful kingdom standing force of the Crescent Kingdom-the Crescent Kingdom Second Guard Corps.

Of course, this Bold-Castel War is a civil war among the nobles, and the Kingdom Guard Corps has neither the power nor the ability to be dispatched.

"My Lord Duke, there is news from the north that His Royal Highness has arrived at the border castle and the Knights have taken control of him."

A nobleman who looked like a butler came behind the Duke of Violet, saluted respectfully, and said.

The kettle in the old duke's hand paused slightly.

"Is there any news about Victor?"

He asked.

The noble hesitated for a moment and replied:

"The fleeing soldiers in the north have sent news that the Earl should have been captured by the Castel family, and he was also captured with the Duchess of Bolde, Eleanor."

After hearing the noble's words, the old duke was silent for a moment and nodded slightly:

"I know."

"Let the Knights keep an eye on Philip, and then prepare envoys to negotiate with Castel."

The noble hesitated for a moment and couldn't help but say:

"My Lord Duke, are you...really going to use His Royal Highness as a bargaining chip to negotiate with Castel?"

"After all, he is the second heir to the throne, the King's favorite child, and your grandson..."

After hearing the noble's words, the old duke slowly turned around.

He had a blank expression on his face, snorted coldly, and said meaningfully:

"The King's favorite child?"

"Humph... No matter if he was before, he couldn't be since the moment he was defeated a week ago."

"Eleanor of Bold was captured, and his dirty deeds may not be concealed. Let's throw this hot potato to Castel."

At this point, the old duke paused again and sighed:

"Also, go down and prepare. After the negotiation with Castel is over, I will go to the capital to meet His Majesty the King in person..."

...

The recovery of the lost land in the North was much faster than Charlotte imagined.

As the news of the annihilation of the Bold-Violet coalition spread, the surrendered nobles turned against their sides and threw themselves into Castel's arms again.

The speed was so fast that Charlotte had to sigh that these fence-sitters were really thick-skinned.

"Whoever wins, they will help."

Under the feudal system, these noble lords who acted independently were so realistic.

Charlotte had no time to settle accounts with these nobles who jumped back and forth.

She just memorized it secretly, and planned to slowly reorganize it after the war was completely over.

After the great victory of the Battle of North Harbor spread, noble envoys from all over the kingdom never stopped. Viscount Remigio, Duke of Moon Guard, the Buwat family, which was a sworn enemy of the Bolde family, and even the second prince of Silver Moon, all sent envoys.

Some congratulated, some expressed goodwill to the Castel family, and some extended olive branches with words of solicitation.

Obviously, the battle of North Harbor, where the few defeated the many, shocked the entire kingdom, and everyone knew that the outcome of the entire war was doomed.

Castel County was destined to part ways with Bolde, and it was very likely to become a new direct vassal of the Crescent Kingdom, and one of the most powerful forces in the north.

After meeting another noble envoy from a neighboring territory, Charlotte also received news:

The envoy team of the Violet Principality for peace talks arrived in Castel.
