The Lord of the Rings: Lords of Middle-earth.

Chapter 840 I almost fooled myself to death

"Uh..." Denethor II was stunned. He didn't expect that their family was so highly regarded by Roland!

Denethor II was not an idiot. When Roland first opened his mouth, he doubted Roland's intentions for a moment, but the Kingdom of Raglan and Gondor were a long way apart, so there was no need for King Roland to put on such a fuss!

"Besides, why should he come here and reap the fruits of your labor while you are helping him control the country? Gondor belongs to the people of Gondor! It is not the Gondor of his Anarion family!" Roland said in a loud voice. The royal family disappeared without a trace, and a thousand years later, a royal descendant suddenly appeared and came to inherit the country? Even Roland, who was shocked by the trivialization of the royal inheritance of the Raglan Empire, felt that Gondor was worse than the Raglan Empire!

"It's been almost a thousand years! Where is the king?" Roland sneered. The Lagran Empire at least has a bunch of electors who can fill in when the royal family becomes extinct. Why don't Gondor, which doesn't even have a contingency plan, make way for the new royal family when its royal family becomes extinct?

"But..." Denethor II blinked his eyes. This was a bit outrageous. Everything in Gondor was made by the king, including the laws. The royal family enjoyed the legal right to rule the country. As prime ministers, they needed to abide by the laws of the kingdom!

"What's the problem? This rubbish royal family has survived for a thousand years without being overthrown. You Hurin family have had enough!" Roland looked at Denethor II with disdain. It was hard to imagine a kingdom without a royal family for nearly a thousand years... If it were the Lagrande Empire, the electors would have already made a "sandbag" out of it.

"Ahem! Your Majesty, you are drunk. I wish you could take a rest!" After hearing Roland's words, Adolf Heinrich coughed violently twice, then lifted Roland's arm and supported him.

"I'm sorry, Your Highness Denesor. Our King is drunk and apologizes for being rude!" Adolf Heinrich nodded to Denesor II, and without waiting for him to speak, he and Fenglin Youlan dragged Roland away.

"Are you drunk already? You were fine, weren't you? Can fruit juice make people drunk?" Denethor II looked confused and hadn't reacted yet.

Holfa, who was accompanying him, was already sitting upright. He stared at the roast meat on the plate as if there was gold on it. He wished he hadn't heard those words just now. That wouldn't be a life-threatening issue! A king taught the future prime minister of a kingdom to overthrow another "king"...

……

"You're crazy! How can you say that?" Adolf Heinrich shook Roland's shoulders, his eyes full of fear. Adolf Heinrich wanted to slap Roland in the face and ask him how he could, from a king's perspective, induce a family that had been loyal to the kingdom for a thousand years to rebel? Aren't these families the king's favorite? Loyal lackeys are the best people to clean up the mess after the king makes a big mistake.

"Ah? Is there a problem? He should have been kicked out long ago after occupying the toilet for a thousand years without doing anything. If this happened in the empire... No! The electors will not let this happen!" Roland thought, let alone a thousand years, even if there was no emperor for a week, the Imperial Parliament would be jumping up and down and shouting for the traitor to be punished by God.

Obviously Roland underestimated the impact of this incident. In the feudal era, the vassal and the lord relied on the moral standards and consciousness of human nature. Both sides were betting on each other's kindness! It can be said that this is the peak era of moral bottom line! Roland's words are undoubtedly a beneficiary who breaks his most comfortable hotbed.

"...You are also a king!" Adolf Heinrich stared at Roland for a long time, and then he slowly uttered a sentence after realizing that his king was really stupid.

"Your Majesty, it's good for us to hear this, no one else can hear it! If Denethor II is a smart man, he won't say this nonsense, just let it go and pretend it never happened!" Fenglin Youlan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said with lingering fear. Everyone knew that Roland came to trick Denethor II into putting eye drops on him, but he didn't expect that the eye drops almost got on himself! Since ancient times, regicide and rebellion are serious crimes! The rulers are very cautious about this thing, and they are very taboo about it! But Roland actually went to teach people to rebel...

  "Is it serious?" Roland then realized the shock his casual remark had brought to everyone. Having seen the history of political intrigues for five thousand years, Roland might be used to this kind of thing, but for an Empire like the Lagrande, which stood at the pinnacle of morality compared to China, Roland's words were undoubtedly a disaster!

"If you tell this to the Vladivostok family, Duke Cholstya will probably die in front of you to prove his integrity!" Fenglin Youlan looked at Roland deeply.

"..." Roland blinked and found that he had underestimated the moral level of Middle-earth. After all, it was no coincidence that no Sun Zi was born in Middle-earth and no Sima Yi appeared in all these years. It was mainly because those who had ambitions had opportunities and those who had opportunities had no ambitions, so the moral standards had not declined.

"What a sin! What a sin!" Roland immediately began to repent, saying "Amitabha" and he almost became a mudslide in the moral world of Middle-earth.

  "Your Majesty, don't mention this again! Especially in the kingdom..." Adolf Heinrich said earnestly. In addition to lowering Roland's image, Adolf Heinrich was also afraid of activating a group of ambitious people! The only one who can be confirmed to be loyal to the kingdom is the Hand of the Stream. King's Landing, Anthony, and MacDougal all have electoral seats! In the past, they were just there to make up the numbers, but now the empire has collapsed, and the kingdom is in such a mess... Besides, Roland's bloodline is not a direct royal line!

"Hmm!" Roland just didn't expect this kind of impact. When he reacted, he understood the bad nature of this matter. Oh my god! He almost became a model of moral decline. It's really terrible! Overthrowing himself?

……

"Hiss..." Denethor II's clever little brain once again occupied the high ground of IQ. At this time, he discovered Roland's problem. Wasn't that just now clearly instigating him to rebel? I didn't expect that King Roland with thick eyebrows and big eyes was also a bad guy! But to be honest, the Anarion family did go too far. Denethor II sighed helplessly.

Denethor II didn't know that when he began to reflect, Roland's plan had already succeeded. The seed of dissatisfaction had been planted, and now he just had to wait for it to sprout...

For the Kingdom of Raglan, regardless of whether this country can rise to the level of an empire in the future, it is the best choice for Raglan to prevent Aragorn from becoming the High King of Gondor! You must know that the King of Gondor is also qualified to claim sovereignty over Rhovanion! If Raglan wants to dominate the north, he cannot let Gondor become too strong when the Fourth Age arrives!

……

"What do you think, Lord Holfa?" After returning to the guest room, Denethor II invited Holfa to watch the night view of Lagrande City on the terrace. The moon was dim and the stars were sparse, and the whole city was dark. There was actually nothing to see, but it did not hinder Denethor II's heart from burning. Here he saw hope of fighting against the orcs again.

  "That's indeed a bit rude..." Holfa stammered. What could he say? How did he see it? He saw it with his eyes!

"Not this one! How about this kingdom?" Seeing that Holfa was still immersed in King Roland's "secret" operation, Denethor II couldn't help but raise his voice.

I'm sorry, everyone please understand
