Chapter 189: Waves and Chaos (Please subscribe, please vote)
Luo Yi left, waving his sleeves, without taking a cloud with him.
However, the entire conference hall fell into a long silence, with only the words "What a ridiculous farce" echoing in the hall.
Over and over again, even after the sound completely faded away, it echoed in the hearts of all the nobles.
After the extreme silence, there is extreme noise, like boiling water, and the noise seems to overturn the dome of the conference hall.
All the nobles felt a buzzing in their ears, but they still tried their best to make their own voices heard.
The nine people who had been the center of everyone's attention before now looked as ugly as they could be.
at this time,
The top floor of the conference hall.
Marquis Ricardo McKinley and Marquis Sean Castro walked out of their own boxes and entered the Carlisle family's box.
Even with their cunning, they all had gloomy faces at this moment, as if others owed them millions of gold shields.
In the box, all the servants were driven out, leaving only three people.
They looked at the noisy meeting room and did not speak for a long time.
Until Marquis Sean Castro could no longer hold back: "This illegitimate child is so arrogant!!!"
"He slapped all the nobles in the face. Does he really not intend to stay in the aristocratic circle anymore?"
Marquis 'Silver Fox' Ricardo McKinley couldn't help but laugh out loud: "You've been in the aristocratic circle for so long, don't you know the nature of these people?"
“As long as the Raymond family remains strong, today’s incident is not an offense, nor is it arrogance.
It’s the youthful spirit that’s soaring!”
After a pause, he couldn't help but stroke the white hair on his temples and said, "He is so young!"
"I don't care if he's young!"
Marquis Castro's expression grew increasingly grim. "I only care that because of his commotion, all the resources and gold shields we invested in the early stages have gone down the drain."
"And that woman Afra is really bad!"
"She actually just watched us making a fuss like she was watching a bunch of clowns!"
Marquis Nolan Carlisle finally couldn't hold back any longer and spoke: "We didn't lose to Aphra, we just lost to Karl!"
"Who would have thought that he would make such an arrangement before his death?"
"Who would have thought that one of his illegitimate children would actually be a cultivation genius?"
Marquis Castro was a little incredulous: “The problem is, the holy artifact cannot be taken away during one’s lifetime.
So, Carl had a premonition of his own death?"
"That's impossible. We were so careful and cautious. Everything was like an undercurrent underwater. There was no disturbance on the surface. How could he have noticed?"
The "unbridled" way he said this made the other two change their expressions.
Marquis McKinley even scolded him in a low voice: "Shut up!"
Marquis Castro was naturally not afraid of him. He turned his head and said, "Ricardo, I am not your knight or vassal. When you speak to me, you must maintain a minimum of respect."
"Ricardo is right, shut up!"
However, it was Marquis Carlisle who interrupted rudely. He stared fiercely at Marquis Castro and said, "There are some things we do, but we must never talk about them!"
"If even a little bit of news leaked out, do you know how much turmoil it would cause?"
Under the scolding of the two marquises, Marquis Castro finally backed down and admitted, "I was too outspoken. It's my fault. I won't do it again next time!"
"That's good to know!"
At this time, the Marquis of Carlisle finally walked to the huge French window.
He looked at the nobles who were leaving the parliament hall like a torrent, and the carriages that were driving away, and finally said, "So what if I get the earldom?"
"So what if a little fellow has a good talent for cultivation?"
"We have to let him know that managing and building a territory is no easy task!"
"War, natural disasters, disease, man-made disasters, there are so many ways to make this young child feel our malice."
…
In another box.
The Norman Archduchess leisurely swung the wine glass in her hand, exuding a lazy and noble temperament.
"Did you know this a long time ago?"
Sitting on the side was an old man about sixty years old, wearing a fiery red robe and with a four-ringed five-pointed star symbol on his chest.
He looked at the Grand Duchess with unfriendly eyes, and his voice was full of dissatisfaction.
"Afra, we are allies. In today's Norman Duchy, my Floyd family is your only ally!"
"Have you forgotten your duty as an ally? How dare you not even exchange a word about something like this?"
Grand Duchess Aphra didn't even look at the old man. Instead, she asked, "Communicate? How can I communicate with you?"
"Tell you that there is a new lion king? Or tell you not to do those shameful things?"
"Didn't I say all this? But, have you ever cared?"
The current Marquis Freud was speechless after being rebuked by the Grand Duchess. He remembered that the Grand Duchess had indeed tried to persuade him many times.
Although the holy artifact, the motto ring, was not mentioned, the admonitions were clear.
However, at that time, he had been blinded by interests and thought that the Grand Duchess just didn't want him to have a share.
At this moment, his momentum weakened a lot, but he still said: "Then you, don't you know how to explain it more clearly?
You know, we Floyds are not very good at these twists and turns and intrigues among the aristocrats."
The Grand Duchess couldn't help but roll her eyes: "Your sister is a person who can't stand loneliness. She did the most despicable thing for a noble.
You don’t know these?!”
"Back then, this caused a huge storm. The war between the Raymond and Floyd families resulted in countless casualties. You experienced it firsthand, so how could you not know?"
“Besides, although the nobles are fond of playing around, they don’t care about illegitimate children.
However, you are vainly trying to let someone without the bloodline of the Raymond family inherit the glory of the Lion King..."
"Honestly, if I didn't know you well enough and knew you weren't thinking those things, I would think you were bringing the ultimate humiliation to the Lion King!"
"If you succeed, believe it or not, all the ancestors of the Raymond family will be so angry that they will crawl out of hell and settle accounts with you!"
This time, it was Marquis Floyd who became a little uneasy. He rubbed his hands awkwardly and said, "Afra, well, you know me. I'm not that kind of person."
"I was not thoughtful about this matter. Little Joel, although he is not a descendant of Earl Raymond's family, he is my sister's only child."
"I still remember when she was that little, she would run after me every day.
So when little Joel came up to me, I was a little bit dizzy."
For a man in his sixties, his attitude of admitting his mistakes was straightforward and frank, which was really not like that of a marquis.
But that's the way with the Freud family. Genius in cultivation and political sophistication are not the same thing.
However, the old man thought of something and said quickly, "Based on my understanding of those three guys, they will definitely not give up.
Who knows how many more dirty tricks are waiting for our new Earl Raymond.
So, do you want to help your son?"
The topic change was abrupt, but the lady was still very tolerant of her allies and said, "No need!"
"Really?"
"Let him do it first. If he needs anything, he will contact me."
"That's fine too."
…
It should be said that the speed at which news spreads depends not only on the means of dissemination, but also on the degree of its impact.
Just like what happened in the House of Lords today, it was absolutely sensational.
Almost as soon as Luo Yi left, it spread outward in an explosive manner.
Not to mention the aristocratic circle, even the free people of Auxerre City have heard about what happened today.
Of course, none of that has anything to do with Roy.
These people's approval or denial, praise or questioning has nothing to do with him.
He just told everyone that the new Earl Raymond, the Lion King has been born!
Anyone who dares to covet the Lion King's territory and wealth will face the wrath of the King of Beasts!
Of course, just because Luo Yi left doesn't mean he is uninformed.
The pretty girl Eva informed him of what happened in the conference hall as quickly as possible.
You have to understand that the nine heir candidates on the stage spent a lot of money and made too many promises in order to obtain territory and wealth.
If they really succeeded, the Earldom of Raymond would not just be dismembered, but the Raymond family's business, wealth, and various interests would also be divided up.
Most of the members present will gain something!
To be precise, they have already reaped some benefits.
Even other nobles gained some benefits directly or indirectly.
But now, Luo Yi's appearance has disrupted all their plans.
What's the result?
What should we do with the benefits that were promised or given before?
If it cannot be executed, many problems will arise.
Not only is there no cake left, but a lot of resources have been spent on it. The matter of connections and golden shield cannot be left unresolved.
This is the follow-up!
This is also what Grand Duchess Aphra needs!
The original order was disrupted, and all the interconnected things lost their interest base. As a result, all the nobles were quarreling!
There are those who are greedy and unwilling to let go of what they have already obtained.
You pay, but you don’t get what you want!
All of this turned into a fierce quarrel that lasted for a whole day in the House of Nobles and Elders.
The white-bearded Speaker even tried to feign illness again in an attempt to escape, but this time, he was beaten awake by the nobles.
But even so, he did not forget the instructions of the new Earl Raymond.
Therefore, a document of succession written on Golden Fleece paper was delivered to the inn before sunset.
Hotel, second floor, in the study.
Luo Yi didn't care about the huge chaos he caused, or even paid too much attention to it.
At this moment, he just unfolded the scroll of succession written on golden wool paper in his hand and looked at it in a daze.
Beside her, Lilia turned her eyes away from the scroll and asked, "Luo Yi, we have obtained what we need to obtain and done what we need to do. When are we leaving?"
Luo Yi raised his head slightly and said, "Of course, the sooner the better!"
"However, before leaving, I still need to meet with Grand Duchess Aphra."
The first update is here, the second update is in progress...
