Chapter 307 King Bruno

Golden Feather City and Niujiao Bay are the two most important cities in the Kingdom of Alduin. Not only are the transportation here developed, but there are also dense carrier birds that transmit information between places.

Especially when something important happens, carrier birds fly in groups in the sky.

As soon as Ronin came out of Niujiao Bay Port, his information was sent out. Missy, who was entrusted by Blanche to inquire, was just one of them.

Of course, he didn't know this.

Under the arrangement of business officer Jolly, they moved into the Dennis family's manor in Niujiao Bay, preparing to set off from here to Golden Feather City early the next morning.

Palace.

This magnificent and exquisitely crafted building is the palace of His Majesty the King.

Even at night, it is still as bright as day.

His Majesty Bruno, tall and burly, sat on the throne, listening to the knight's report on the nobles who came to Niujiao Bay Port today.

"These guys..."

Bruno was so angry that he laughed.

Although most of the nobles of the kingdom who were closer to Jinyu City attended Blanche's birthday party, those who attended were either one generation older than Blanche, or were engaged or married men, or were elders with their daughters.

Anyway, there was not a single man of the right age, as if they were afraid that the king would marry Blanche to them if he was happy.

"This Ronin is beyond my expectation."

Bruno picked up Ronin's information, which recorded that Ronin represented Wushan Castle to command the noble coalition to eliminate the Polish bandit group, as well as the latest information from Niujiao Bay today.

At the beginning, he agreed to Lulans' request, on the one hand, because of his personal relationship with Lulans;

On the other hand, he saw that Wushan, an old family, had never had an alliance with the royal family, and he also wanted to take the opportunity to arrange his own forces there.

Of course, a small part of it was out of helplessness about Blanche's current situation.

If it weren't for the fact that his daughter was almost twenty years old and still had no marriage, which would damage his political image, he would rather choose Breton than agree to Ronin, who was deprived of the right of inheritance.

He had originally thought of giving Ronin some merits to improve his qualifications, but he didn't expect that the latter would be able to change from a baron of Shanlin Town to an earl of Wubei Territory so quickly with his own strength.

Although Ronin's status cannot be compared with that of a kingdom earl, it is at least much higher than that of a small baron.

"Arsenault, do you think our marquis deliberately concealed Ronin's talent and deliberately made the outside world think that Ronin was a waste who couldn't practice?"

"It's very likely!"

Below, Minister of State Arsenault nodded in agreement.

"When Grems died in battle, many people participated in it, most of whom didn't want the Wushan family to have two meteor knights with outstanding talents."

He added in his mind: "Lulans probably knew this reason, so after Ronin showed his talent, he deliberately hid it."

More than 30 years ago, Lulans himself had a very high talent, and his son Grems was even better than his father, which naturally aroused jealousy and envy from others.

Weakening the strength of this family is something everyone is happy to see, including King Alduin IV, Bruno's father, King Klinsmann at the time.

But he didn't expect that the suppression was too harsh in the end. Not only did Grams die, but even Lulans himself was abolished, which made Wushan Territory in a turbulent period for the past thirty years.

It is entirely possible that Lulans hid Roning in the cold.

"He let Roning stand up now. Does he think the time is right?"

Bruno tapped the armrest.

Roning's talent is undoubtedly very strong, even compared with his son Garrett, he is not weaker at all. From this point of view, he is worthy of the princess.

But for Bruno, it would be better if Roning could inherit Wushan Territory again, so that his political bargaining chips would be higher and his rule would be more solid.

"Who do you think is behind the assassination of Roning and his group this time?"

Arseno glanced at the king, then shook his head, "It's hard to say."

He added: "Anyone is possible."

Although he is a trusted minister, Arseno dare not speak lightly without evidence, as it is easy to offend people.

Bruno rubbed his brows, "These guys are really a headache."

Except for Grand Duke Gistana, all the other nobles are unwilling to be ordinary.

To be honest, Bruno's performance in governing the country and strength is mediocre. He can smoothly inherit the throne of the kingdom mainly because of his status as the eldest son. There will always be people who are dissatisfied.

Although under the system of primogeniture, these nobles will not do things like rebellion and seizing the throne, but it is still a common thing to compete and fight with the kingdom in many fields such as economic interests.

The assassination of Ronin may be for the purpose of disrupting Wushan Territory, or it may be to weaken his authority as a king and make Blanche a joke to him.

"Your Majesty, the princess wants to see you!" The guard came in to report.

Bruno raised his eyebrows. His daughter rarely shows up in public. How come she has time to come to the palace today?

"Let her come in."

Soon, Blanche came in and offered a polite and respectful greeting.

"Blanche, my daughter, how come you have time to come and see me?"

Blanche was a little embarrassed, but she still said, "Father, I heard that Ronin was attacked by the White Whale Pirates at sea."

Bruno smiled slightly, he knew what his daughter was worried about.

"Don't worry, he is not injured, he is resting in Niujiao Bay now, and he will probably arrive in Jinyu City tomorrow night. After I summon him, I will arrange for you to meet."

Blanche did not express too much opinion on this matter. After all, in front of outsiders, she could not act so impatient.

"It was Roning who saved me last time in Wushan Castle. This time when he came to attend my birthday party, he was attacked by pirates. This must be a premeditated assassination!"

She said: "Please uphold justice for Roning and send troops to wipe out the White Whale Pirates!"

"I understand your anger for your friend's experience. But my daughter, you have to understand that pirates are like stink bugs. You will feel uncomfortable if you don't kill them, but if you want to kill them, you are worried that they will fart and fumigate you."

This is also the reason why Bruno does not want to eliminate pirates. In the past, when the pirates were making a lot of noise, he would ask the Earl's family of Screaming Island to send troops to clear them out, but the royal fleet did not go out often.

At this point, his heart moved and he changed the subject.

"However, this time Ronin seems to have captured the deputy leader and captain of the pirate group. We may be able to find the base of the White Whale Pirates through them and wipe them out."

Arsenault echoed: "We should indeed strike this group of pirates. Otherwise, it will not only encourage their arrogance, but also make them mistakenly believe that the royal family is incapable of dealing with them."

The "they" he said naturally did not only refer to the pirates, but also to those who cooperated with the pirates and even supported the pirates.

"Blanche, you go down first. I will consider this matter for your friend."

"Yes, father!" Blanche bowed slightly and left the hall.

"I plan to let Ronin do the matter of clearing the White Whale Pirates." Bruno said.

As an assistant who has followed the king for more than ten years, Arsenault guessed the other party's intention at once and couldn't help laughing.

"To be favored and actively supported by you, I can only say that Ronin is really lucky."

He was right. Bruno really wanted to help Ronin become stronger.

Because only in this way can Wushan Territory get out of its decadence and have a chance to compete with several major forces in the east of the kingdom, instead of being just a delicacy on the menu like now.

Ronin has become stronger, and it is beneficial for Bruno to let Ronin fight with them.

"Ronin is now qualified to be supported by me."

Bruno thought for a while and said, "One White Whale Pirate Group is not enough. Please help me find out if there is anything else that can be entrusted to him." (End of this chapter)
