king of the castle

Chapter 463

As soon as these words were spoken, Alonso III stared at Roger closely, eager to know how he would answer himself. 【】

In fairness, Roger has always been known in the kingdom for not meddling in other people's affairs, and the strength of his hands should not be underestimated. Alonso III did not want to completely turn against Roger before he was fully prepared.Alonso III's plan is to try to persuade or threaten Roger to hand over Hamilton and his daughter first. If he surrenders to himself, he will not do anything to Roger for the time being.

After all, Roger is also the Earl of the Kingdom, and he has made great contributions to the Kingdom many times. If Alonso III suddenly attacked him, it would inevitably make other nobles disappointed with the king, and even cause greater turmoil.So Alonso III also decided that if possible, try not to turn against Roger immediately, and it would be best to attack him after making complete preparations.

Facing Alonso III who was looking at him nervously, Roger couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional.At the beginning, it was also the king who gave himself the title of nobility against all opinions, and also supported himself in the struggle against the Duke of Hamilton and Vettel.But now there is no other existence in the kingdom that can threaten the kingship of Alonso III, so he couldn't wait to attack his former allies, not only killing the Duke of Hamilton, but even his daughter Anna was not going to let go

Perhaps all this is quite normal for Alonso III who is the king. He just eliminated some existences that might threaten him in advance in order to maintain the kingship.Perhaps it was not Hamilton who was harmed by Alonso III this time, but other nobles that Roger hated, and he would spread his hands and say: "This is a cruel political struggle, there is no way, you will have to pay it back sooner or later." "

Unfortunately, it was the Hamilton family that Alonso III first attacked, and he didn't even intend to let Anna go. This was something Roger could not accept.After all, Anna is Roger's woman, so Hamilton is also his father-in-law. If Roger can bear this kind of thing, he is really not a man.

What's more, now that Alonso III is still aiming his gun at Roger, this time asking him to come to Mandos City for an audience is the strongest evidence.Under such circumstances, Roger has made up his mind to fight Alonso III to the end, who will have the last laugh.

Under the nervous gaze of Alonso III, Roger suddenly smiled, and then said word by word: "Sorry, Your Majesty. The Duke is seriously injured and it is inconvenient to travel, and he also likes the climate and scenery of Kent Town. I might as well Let him stay with me for three to five years, and come to see you after he recovers from his injuries."

Roger's words made Alonso III furious

The fact that he was seriously injured and inconvenient to travel, and he liked the climate and scenery of Kent Town, all these were obviously excuses made by Roger.The king's visit only shows one thing, that is, Hamilton knew of his plan, so he hid far away in Kent Town and never came back.

Alonso III judged others by himself, and was convinced that Hamilton suffered such a big loss that he almost lost his life, so naturally he would not let it go.The Duke stayed in Kent Town for the first time to take refuge, and secondly, he must gather forces loyal to him to wait for an opportunity to counterattack and retaliate.

Under such circumstances, Roger still insisted on refusing to hand over the man. In the eyes of the king, it was almost a conspiracy to overthrow himself.Alonso III was naturally very angry, staring at Roger and said slowly: "Earl Lee, you should know the consequences of what you did."

Anyway, Roger was already planning to turn against the other party, and he was not polite, and said to the king without showing weakness: "Did you really not think about the consequences when you used that shameful trick against the Duke of Hamilton?".

"Presumptuous" was angered by Roger's attitude. Alonso III slapped his chair and said, "Count, don't forget who you are talking to. I announce that you will be stripped of your title because you despised the king, and the territory will be returned to the kingdom."

"Don't forget, the appointment and dismissal of nobles is not up to the king, but the distribution of territories is a matter for the Privy Council, and the head of the Privy Council is the Duke of Hamilton." Facing the aggressive Alonso III, Roger did not show any weakness. : "I also want to remind you, if the Lord Duke shows up and announces your conspiracy to the world, how many nobles do you think will stand with you? Using undead creatures to frame the nobles of the country, if this kind of thing gets out, even The church will not let you go, you are waiting to be hunted down by the Inquisition"

Roger really planned to turn against the king. He didn't leave any room for his words, and pointed at Alonso III's vitals with every sentence.When has the king been robbed like this?At this time, his lips were trembling with anger, his face was pale, and he pointed at Roger with trembling fingers, but he couldn't even say a word.

"What? I have nothing to say?" Roger was desperate anyway, and simply took this opportunity to scold him: "Who back then fully supported you and fought against Vater and the Barton family? Now that your power has been consolidated and the throne is firmly established, immediately Just turn your face and deny people like you, a king who has no tolerance for others, will be kicked out of the throne sooner or later."

"You are too presumptuous, Earl Lee." Anthony, who had been hiding in advance, heard Roger's words getting more and more excessive, and felt that it was time for him to perform in front of the king, so he rushed out of his hiding place and scolded him loudly.

The fat marquis gave Sophia a greedy look, and then said loudly: "Don't forget who you are talking to, Earl's palace guards, quickly arrest these two people and put them in prison!"

Let the palace guards deal with Roger instead of activating the mechanism, which was also discussed in advance by Alonso III and Anthony.When they came, Roger's strength was too weak, and there was no need to waste precious magic crystals to activate the mechanism, only the palace guards were enough.

Following Anthony's order, all the palace guards who had been ambushing in the small room rushed out, and a total of four to fifty people appeared in the small room, almost filling the space.

These palace guards were all the king's most trusted people, so they didn't care what Roger was convicted of, but slowly approached Roger with weapons, just wanting to subdue him and Sophia.

Seeing that Roger was surrounded by the palace guards, Anthony's fat face showed a smug smile.Roger only had the bronze strength, and he didn't bring any weapons or magic items. It was more than enough for so many palace guards with the same bronze strength to deal with him.Anthony believes that it won't take long for Roger to be captured without a fight, and his status in front of the king will also rise. All this is perfect

At this time, Anthony was so proud that he couldn't help reminding the soldiers loudly: "Don't hurt that woman, Your Majesty has already given her to me."

As soon as Anthony finished speaking, the situation suddenly developed in a direction he hadn't expected at all.
