Chapter 13 The Phantom Prism of Backtracking
Time passed by, and many nobles had already browsed the Winter Code.
Their eyes were uncertain, and they wanted to stand up and throw the draft in the king's face, but no one dared to do so.
Finally, a viscount with a bad temper stood up. Under the encouraging gazes of the nobles, he mustered up the courage to say to King Winter with a hint of anger:
"Hi... Your Highness, this code is unreasonable! It is cutting off the foundation of the empire's power. Doing so will only make the empire weaker and weaker. Your Highness..."
"Drag him out and hang him."
Before the viscount could finish speaking, King Winter, who was sitting at the top, interrupted him with a cold tone.
Two wolf-like crusaders lifted the Viscount's body from behind and dragged him out while he screamed for mercy like a slaughtered pig.
The nobles looked at each other with pale faces, lowered their heads and continued to look at the table.
There is not a single earth knight among the nobles here. All the high-end power is now firmly in the hands of the king. When they return to their territory, they may be able to show off their power with the strength of their great knights.
But in Winterfell, they might not even be able to defeat the flying dragon pulling the king's chariot.
"Do you have any other opinions? If not, this code will be implemented from now on."
Xiweipi said with a smile.
He had no intention of giving these nobles a good look today. If he hadn't been unable to find the talents to manage the territory for a while, and the reform had to be carried out step by step, he would have removed all these cancers one by one.
The nobles did not dare to get angry or speak out, let alone have an opinion. The last person who had an opinion should have just been hanged with a noose.
"Very good. Thank you very much for your cooperation with me. The Winter Empire is in full swing. In order to allow you to promote the Winter Code more smoothly, I will send a flying dragon knight to assist you in your work."
Xiwei clapped his hands and a friendly smile appeared on his face again.
"A banquet has been prepared in Winter Castle. If you are not in a hurry to return to the territory, you can go to the banquet to celebrate. Just go to Clemont to find out which territory you will be allocated."
The so-called Dragon Knight is a combination of elite priests and venomous dragons.
The strength of the elite priest has reached level 35, and combined with the level 38 venom flying dragon, it can resist and attack, has milk and shield, and can also fly.
For various territories that currently lack high-end combat power, it is already a top-notch existence.
They were indeed there to help promote the code. Of course, if the lord failed to promote the code properly, they would not mind pushing the lord away according to Xiwei's order.
…
Except for Seavey's cheap father, the Duke of Manhattan, and some of his friends, no one attended the banquet in Winterhold.
Xiwei only gave these newly appointed lords three days to deal with their own family affairs. If they had not gone to their respective territories to take office by then, there was no need to take office.
Although the lords were full of complaints about Xiwei's code, they still yearned for power, and also imagined that this code might only be strict in the early stage, and that they could still return to the life of a local emperor in the later stage.
As for the dragon knights who followed, we are all human beings, and as human beings we have desires. If we have desires, we can negotiate terms. If we can negotiate terms, we can just turn a blind eye and pass.
However, these nobles who are thinking about the future have no idea how loyal system soldiers such as Priest and Venom Flying Dragon are to Xiwei. Fanatic believers may not be as pious as them.
…
After seeing off all the lords, the newly appointed Winter Emperor Xiwei was sitting in his office holding his personal maid and eating grapes leisurely.
As the relationship between the two people gets closer, they naturally become more sticky, and there is a tendency to stick together as long as they are not in public.
"Oh, Master, it was just last night...why are you thinking about it again now?"
Luo Li sat in Xi Wei's arms with a flushed face, her soft body pressed against his chest, and her tender hands wrapped around his waist. Although her words seemed to be complaining, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised.
, it’s appropriate to be happy or angry.
Xi Wei smiled bitterly when he heard this. It was not something he could control. It was okay if he didn't taste it, but it was even more uncomfortable now that he had tasted it.
You must know that being happy with Luo Li is not an ordinary experience. She is soft, gentle, and full of affection. Although she cannot bear all his love, she can lock a part of her tightly and wrap around her tightly.
Not to mention that Loli also [believes in] the water god.
Seeing the bitter expression on Xiwei's face, Loli couldn't help but smile, picked up a crystal clear grape, put it to Xiwei's mouth, and said vaguely:
"Ah - Master~ My King, eat quickly~"
While enjoying the kisses and feeding from the little maid, Xiwei began to use the system to distract himself.
He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to withstand the temptation of Loli, a tormenting little goblin, so he tortured her again in less than half a day, but he clearly remembered how painful Loli was before.
"System, I want to draw a lottery!"
