Chapter 73 I heard that you want to defect? （1）
If it is said that the young noble children in the room are heard by the Queen of Eternal Night, it is a near-death experience.
Then, because Roger's heart sounded, as he walked into this room, the death penalty was a certainty.
The Queen of Eternal Night would naturally not allow these people to give Roger a wrong example.
Originally, that kid was so bold that he dared to scold the queen in his heart. If I don't burn these second-gen second-generation to burn me to death, wouldn't I be scolded face-to-face in the future when I'm going to be scolded in the face?
Does the queen want to lose face?
When Roger entered the door and saw the Queen of Eternal Night hiding in the room, he was also stunned.
[I wanted to hear a joke from the Queen, but the Queen was also there, so should I laugh or not laugh for a while? 】
The Queen of Eternal Night said subconsciously, "Don't laugh!"
Roger looked up at her suspiciously, his eyes twinkling.
Did I just laugh? I just thought about it in my heart, haven't I laughed yet?
Only then did the Evernight Queen realize that it was broken.
I responded to his heartfelt voice just now!
She hurriedly cleared her throat, "These nobles forgot why the empire exists, but it also shows that Mokela is very successful, changing the pattern of the empire, Roger Aiqing, as the initiator, counts the best, so naturally, you should be happy... But right now, don't laugh!"
She was talking nonsense in all seriousness, and Roger always thought there was something strange.
But since the queen had said so, he still patted his chest and assured, "Your Majesty, rest assured, this minister has received professional training, and usually he will not laugh."
[It turns out that what Your Majesty means is not that I failed in the management of facial expressions. It seems that I have an additional reward for the success of Makela, ok! 】
The Queen of Eternal Night frowned.
If you say three words wrong, I owe you an extra reward, right?
The founder of "New Arcane" needs a reward, and the sales surge has promised a condition. If you say something wrong, you will be rewarded. Sooner or later, there will be no reward, right?
I've lost a lot this time!
It must be recovered from these scum who are trying to make a fortune in the country.
Through the simple introduction of the Queen of Eternal Night, Roger can be considered to know what kind of a group of nobles in this room are.
His mouth is full of doctrine, but his heart is full of business.
Everyone seems to be worried about the country and the people, and they want to revive the glory of the magician and stop the queen from falling.
It was just because Mokela affected his own business.
The yellow-haired one who was wearing a white mage robe and a saucy hairstyle at the head was the young master of the Duke of South Carleton.
The men and women around him are all descendants of nobles from the southern part of the empire.
The South is the traditional grain production center of the empire, and both last year and this year had a larger than usual harvest.
And the homeland of the Seventeen Kingdoms was not peaceful before, and this year, the Nationalist Army made a lot of noise, delaying the spring plowing, and not many people died.
So the situation of this man with more food and less food is irreversible. Even with the support of the empire, it cannot fill the huge gap.
Not being starved to death is the greatest wish of the people at the bottom of this era.
Seeing that the famine was inevitable, the aristocrats in the south united and hoarded a large amount of food.
Some time ago, the price of food in the whole empire was quite high.
When the summer harvest is over, the food in the seventeen countries will be almost consumed, and a large number of people will not be able to eat, so they will win.
It doesn't matter if you don't have money, you can still sell yourself.
The southern nobles threw countless coins and filled their warehouses with food, but before the famine came, an alchemy potion called Mokela came first.
Ordinary magicians are still arguing about the war-inducing articles published in "New Arcane". At most, it is a blasphemy to use magic for agriculture, and they don't pay much attention to the magic itself.
But the nobles who were gathering grain on a large scale frowned and found that things were not simple.
They got some magic rubbish through their channels. After verification, they found that the description of the article was true.
This is an alchemical potion that changes the fertility of the land and stimulates the rapid growth of certain high-yielding crops.
Such alchemy potions are not unusual, there are many similar spells and magic items.
But the problem is that Makela is too cheap.
It was ridiculously cheap. It's so cheap that ordinary farmers grit their teeth. At the level of six heads of state, they can use gold coins to speed up the process of crop production and complete the first wave of primitive accumulation.
This thing is too big a threat to the southern nobles who are hoarding food. Naturally, "New Arcane", Makela, and the Queen of Eternal Night are regarded as thorns in the eyes.
The Queen of Eternal Night looked gloomy here, but a group of young people over there were drinking well.
He was still talking about the threat of the empress, and it had risen to the point that the empire had to choose a new puppet that respected the interests of the nobles.
"But what if we can't beat the Queen?" someone asked.
"It's simple, let the brains of the church come to me! As long as they are allowed to preach, they will scream and rush up."
The young master of the South Carleton family said.
A group of people cheered him, this trick is lore!
Roger was dumbfounded.
[Young people are too brave, do you think this salon is a place outside the law? You never know who is eavesdropping outside the door! 】
[You're still young, so dare to say anything. Even if I have the intention of defecting to the church, I carefully hide it and never dare to say it! 】
Eternal Night Queen: ? ? ?
My dear, I thought I caught a group of southern worms, but I didn't expect there was one of the biggest worms around!
Life is full of surprises!
One was careful, and the other was hidden and tucked away.
Very good, now I already know that you want to defect to the empire. Is it the finger of death, or is it after the fall?
She almost fainted.
It was found that the imperial nobles had the intention of mutiny because greed gave up loyalty and conscience, and the Queen of Eternal Night was a little sad.
Those old ministers who once declared their loyalty and jointly built the Qingteng Empire have deteriorated. They now have a completely different position from the empire.
She can still accept this result because the industrialization of magic has touched the cake of these nobles.
But now Roger has also expressed his intention to defect from the church, which is to stab the queen several times.
She felt unacceptable.
From the perspective of the Queen of Eternal Night, I was good to Roger and gave him the only treatment among all the courtiers.
The title was given, the money was given, and the house was rewarded.
If he wants fiefs, he will never be less.
He was given enough stage to show off, and the Eternal Night Order, which had not been used for many years, was directly handed over to him, and it was the most in-place support in all aspects.
On weekdays, he tolerated all his bold and lustful words and actions that were completely beyond the duty of a courtier.
I don't think I have ever committed the crime of deceiving the king if the words are wrong.
After the bloody night in Odu, to cooperate with the arrest of Joestar and rescue of Angelina, I left the customs ahead of time to add another layer of hidden dangers to me. I just want to escort the heroes of the future.
In the end, because he forced him to work hard and made him unable to be lazy, he would defect to the gods?
The Queen of Eternal Night fell into confusion, and a real sadness slowly spread in her heart.
Where is the young man in front of the big library who wants to tell the truth about history?
Where is the boy who was willing to use himself as bait to lure Joestar out?
Where is the boy who promised me to work together to prevent the mountains and rivers from being broken?
All heroes and bravery are fake, are they all performed for me to see?
She couldn't figure it out, couldn't figure it out.
She believed that what Roger revealed "Unintentionally" was the most real thought in her heart.
That's why it's more and more difficult to accept.
Did I give less? Did I do something wrong again?
Could it be that I'm so humble now that I'm so diligent, but I can't even exchange a person's loyalty?
"Your Majesty, is there a problem?"
Roger finally realized that something was wrong.
The Queen of Eternal Night no longer looked at those noble children who were conspiring to betray the country for money, but turned around and stared at herself.
The murderous aura in her eyes was about to overflow, making him unconsciously break out cold sweat.
[Those people are obsessed with profit and disregard the interests of the empire, I don't blame Mo Kela, Your Majesty, don't scare me! 】
The Eternal Night Queen took a deep breath and suppressed her anger.
If you can't figure it out, just ask.
Her voice was so cold that there was no emotion at all, "How about you tell me, what did I do wrong, and you want to treat me like this?"
Roger was a little bewildered by the question.
[This... It's so strange that the question has no beginning and no end. Why is it "You"? I have no collusion with the southern nobles. Your Majesty, you know it! 】
[Does the "You" here refer to all nobles? 】
[She is so confused, she is going to throw the blame on all the nobles? This still has to be persuaded! 】
"Your Majesty, the standard of right and wrong is not absolute, it is only determined by your position. If your Majesty wants to distribute more benefits to the commoners, what you do is wrong in the eyes of the nobles.
