Today, you are still alive, which is already a sign of the king’s generosity. I didn’t expect you to go even further and want to see the king! ! "
The person arguing with the guard was Norton, who had challenged Altria that day.
After the king's selection was over, he was taken to jail in a coma by the guards called by Merlin.
After waking up, he saw his surroundings and understood his situation.
"I will definitely die!"
Norton understood how outrageous his previous behavior was, and even he himself didn't think he could survive.
until the next day.
"Norton, you are acquitted."
The guard untied the shackles with disdain and opened the cell door.
"I'm finally going to die..."
"Hey!! What did you say??"
Norton jumped up immediately, grabbed the guard's hand, and wanted to ask for clarification.
The guard immediately shook off his hand, wiped it on the wall in disgust, and spoke.
"' ‖You bastard, you wasted a minute of Wang's time dealing with your matter.
Do you know how busy she is? If I had known, I would have dealt with you in advance!"
Norton no longer cared that the guard in front of him wanted to kill him.
He blankly repeated what he had just heard.
"The king pardoned me? I lived?"
"Go quickly, the treasury is empty now, and there is no food for you!"
In this way, Norton returned to his home safely.
His father, Lord Eaton, was overjoyed to see his son return safely.
More than a dozen tables of banquets were set up to welcome him.
At dinner time, the delicacies from land and sea and the delicious dishes in front of him did not arouse Norton's interest.
"Why on earth would the king let me go?"
He looked at his father, Lord Eaton.
"Father, did you use your money to rescue me (get Zhao Zhao)?"
After Sir Eaton drank a few glasses of wine, he, who had always looked down on Altria, immediately spoke out his true feelings.
"No... No way! That stupid... new king... let you go on his own!"
"If I were to do it, at least we would have to use up a whole warehouse of food!"
"Hey, that's fine too!"
"Norton, listen to me, you are the only child in our family."
"You are the one who will inherit this huge family business. Don't do anything stupid!"
After saying this, Sir Eaton fell to the ground and fell asleep.
"It wasn't my father's doing! The king actually let me go for no reason!"
He had no respect for the new king yet, so he did not get angry when his father slandered the new king.
That night, he couldn't sleep all night, and finally the current scene happened.
"No! Today, I must go in and ask the king why he let me go!"
Chapter 383: The Honest Altria
"Who is it, at the gate of the palace?"
Only Kai and Merlin were with Altria.
As soon as Kai heard the voice, he knew what was going on.
Anger showed on his face.
"It's the day of the King's Selection Ceremony, the day when Norton challenges you!"
It's him?
Altria was a little surprised. Didn't she let him go? Why did he come here?
"That guy is just a stubborn guy. He insisted on asking you why you let him go."
Kai noticed his sister's confusion and quickly explained.
"Since your coronation, you have been handling government affairs in the palace and have never stepped out of the palace, so naturally you don't know.
Let me go and chase him away, this guy is very annoying! "
"I say, I shouldn't have let him go so easily!"
Kai was indignant and was about to chase the man away.
But Altria stopped her brother.
“Kai, I’ve said that anyone who challenges me will be forgiven by me no matter what.
Besides, I never thought that the people under my rule were all kind-hearted, and it was normal to have some troublemakers occasionally."
"Liya...King! You're not going to explain to him!!" Kai was so excited that he almost forgot to observe etiquette.
"That's 177 natural, and that's my duty."
Altria nodded.
Kai quickly looked at Merlin beside him, wanting to ask him to persuade Altria.
"Just be patient, Kai. This may be the key to breaking the current situation."
Merlin smiled slightly and said mysteriously.
Altria and Merlin had already left, leaving Kai standing there stupidly, saying in confusion:
"Merlin, what nonsense is he talking about! I was just too young back then!
How can I admire such an unreliable person! "
After saying that, he hurriedly followed.
……
"let me..."
Norton's voice stopped abruptly because he saw Altria wearing a cotton cloak in front of him.
Hidden under the blue and white armor and cloak, the sword in the stone at the waist is so dazzling, but it still cannot cover up the glory of its owner!
In just a few short weeks, she has already begun to show the bearing and majesty of a king.
"That's unchivalrous, Norton."
The sound was clear, pleasant yet reproachful.
Norton wanted to refute, but gave up in an instant.
"I'm sorry, King. Please forgive my rudeness."
He bowed and expressed his apology.
"I heard about your intentions, and it was my decision to release you."
"As a king, I should be tolerant of my people. You are not a bad person by nature."
"Perhaps I was provoked by others and had evil thoughts."
"Besides, I have already said so, so it is only natural for me to let you go."
Altria paused for a moment, and seeing Norton standing there in a daze, she asked again:
"If you have no questions, please go back."
"I also need to go outside the city to apologize to the refugees from the north. I don't have much time."
Altria threw her cloak aside and walked out of the city without any hesitation.
It’s because I’m her people!!
Norton looked at Altria's thin back and was lost in thought for a moment.
What a noble king!
I actually tried to seize the throne!
He had never hated himself so much.
Now, just thinking back to the stupid thing he had done a few weeks ago made him blush.
So shameful!
There is no doubt that Norton has been completely conquered by Altria's personal charm and qualities.
Like most people, he is now even willing to die for the new king!
Wait, what did you mean by apologize?
After coming to his senses, Notu suddenly realized that something was wrong.
He quickly asked Merlin who was standing beside him.
"Master Merlin, King, why are you going to apologize?"
The opportunity is coming!
Merlin's mind raced as he recalled this guy's background.
"Norton, the only son of Lord Eaton, his family is extremely rich!!"
enough!
I’m afraid his family isn’t rich enough!
Merlin sighed and waved his hand, ready to send the other person away.
"Nothing to do with you!"
Norton suddenly became anxious!
"How can this have nothing to do with me?? I am also a subject of the king!!"
Hearing this, Merlin was overjoyed.
He immediately put on a bitter face and said dejectedly:
"It's useless for you to know, so forget it."
"No! I must know! Maybe I can help!" Norton shouted anxiously.
"Well, let me tell you quietly!"
Merlin told Norton that Altria was going to apologize to the refugees for betraying their trust because they had no food.
"I once advised her to use your life as a bargaining chip to exchange for food for your father's emergency."
"But who would have thought that Wang would righteously and sternly refuse!"
"She said that the lives of her people cannot be used as objects of trade!"
After listening to this, Norton's eyes were red.
"Wang...did she really say that?"
Merlin pretended to be angry and scolded:
"How dare I make up something about the King!!"
"If it's fake, I'll... "
Norton immediately stopped Merlin and said:
"Master Merlin, I believe you!
