Whether you want it or not, the years of the past will eventually pass away.

But the memories of the past will still exist and will remain in your heart.

Kaili felt this way at this moment.

Standing in front of his manor, he was a little lazy in the sun.

In the sky, the faint sun shone down, shining on him, adding a little warmth to his body.

But even in such a warm season, there was still a little melancholy on Kairi's face.

"He's old?"

Kairi sighed softly, and this thought flashed through his mind.

It has been more than ten years since the establishment of the Kingdom of Nado.

The Kingdom of Nado was built on the corpses of the Kingdom of Kutu, and its original territory was the size of the Kingdom of Kutu in the past.

It was not until a period of time after the establishment of the Kingdom of Nado that the Kingdom of Kutu, led by King Kailin, slowly developed into the outside world and grew into a well-deserved overlord.

And all this should be attributed to the king of Kutu kingdom, His Majesty Kelin, who is known as the King of Knights.

Kelin Nador, this is a name that has rarely been known in the past few decades, but has become increasingly famous in recent decades.

He was brave and good at fighting. He had defeated a large number of enemy troops with his weak force more than once. He even defeated 100,000 rebels head-on with an army of less than 10,000 people under the royal city of Kutu.

That battle laid the foundation for the Kingdom of Nado and also laid the status of Knight Kelin.

In the following decades, with the expansion of the Kingdom of Nado, the reputation of the Knight King became increasingly popular, and even spread to the entire continent.

Carey is proud of this friend Kailin.

From now on, he can actually be considered mediocre in his life. At least compared to those geniuses, he actually has no extraordinary talent. He is just a prominent and noble family, so he is looked up by many people.

The most correct choice he made in his life was to become friends with the young Knight King who was still young back then.

Kaylin, this is Kyri's lifelong best friend and his best friend.

In the battle between the Knight King and the King of Kutu, he opened the door to Kutu, opening the road for the Knight King to enter Kutu and laying the foundation for the latter.

After Knight King Kailin reached the top, he also received strong returns.

A large amount of territory originally belonging to the Kutu royal family was enfeoffed and finally handed over to him.

Although a large number of nobles benefited from this move, there is no doubt that as the close friend of the Knight King, what Kaili has to be assigned is the most essential territory.

In the days that followed, Kaili also worked under his former close friend, working hard to contribute to the new Nado Kingdom and make the country more prosperous.

They succeeded in doing everything they had promised.

With their efforts, the entire Kingdom of Nado flourished at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In just over a decade, while the Nado Kingdom was developing outside, the country also flourished rapidly.

The population began to grow continuously. With the support of the Knight King, major pillar industries also developed rapidly, which not only absorbed a large amount of labor, but also attracted merchants from outside.

Merchant exchanges, population reproduction, and relatively peaceful policies all led to the tone of peaceful development of the entire Nado Kingdom.

Everything is so beautiful.

Here, we have to mention the mercy of the Knight King.

Compared with all the kings in the past, the Knight King is kind.

After becoming king, he re-enacted the law, not only changing many unreasonable rules, but also canceling many punishments.

There is no death penalty in the Kingdom of Nado now.

The most serious punishment is to demote people to slaves and become future absenteeism.

The reason for this is that on the one hand is the kindness of the Knight King, and on the other hand, it is also out of developmental considerations.

The productivity of this era is still behind, and under such circumstances, many jobs are actually quite dangerous.

For example, mining and road construction, the mortality rate is very high.

Taking those who have committed serious crimes to do these dangerous things can be regarded as waste utilization, which not only gives these people a way out, but also saves others from doing such dangerous things.

After all, after experiencing the past turmoil, the population in the Nado Kingdom is still insufficient at this moment, so how can it be consumed so easily?

From Chen Heng's perspective as a time traveler, those actions are the punishments that are death penalty, which are undoubtedly too severe and are also a serious waste of manpower.

It is better to use these prisoners to waste every year because so many death row prisoners are created for various reasons.

But this is a manifestation of kindness in others' eyes.

The great knight king mercifully pardoned those evil people who were extremely sinful, allowing them to have a way out, and benefited many families and avoid having to engage in dangerous work. What is this not mercy?

In order to better implement this policy, in the following years, the Knight King took back several privileges from many lords.

The first thing he brought back was the personnel appointment and removal power of the various lords and the power to use lynching.

In the past, the lords of various places were basically the local emperors in their own territory, and they had all the power in their territory.

They can freely appoint and remove officials from their territory, lynch their territories, and even dispose of all caravans passing through their territory without authorization.

Rape women and kill civilians is just a common thing in the eyes of the lords.

And now, the Knight King has reclaimed this part of his power.

From then on, the appointment and removal of officials of the lords must be approved by the king, and even in some key positions, people sent by the king must be held.

As for the power to use lynching, this has also been abolished.

At least in name, future lords no longer have the power to attack the people of their territory without authorization.

Once these measures are taken, they will naturally trigger a rebound.

The lords who had just been pacified for a few years began to riot one after another.

Many people even raised the rebellion again, trying to push the Knight King down and support the people of the Kutu royal family to come to power.

However, what the Knight King expected was this scene.

In the past few years, in order to quickly calm the situation and retain vitality, the Knight King has enthroned many lords in large numbers.

To be honest, this is a helpless move, just a temporary solution.

Many of the lords who were enthroned were not Chen Heng's own subordinates, but those nobles who had already mastered a lot of strength.

Naturally, these people cannot be the same as Chen Heng.

Moreover, the strength they have is too strong and must be weakened as much as possible, so that the territory they have is also included in the hands of the kingdom.

So after several years of rest, Chen Heng took action decisively.

As soon as several measures were taken, a large number of nobles launched a rebellion.

For a moment, it was like most of the Nado Kingdom raised the flag against the enemy.

Everything seems to be back to the chaotic era.

Carey missed a little about that time.

He still remembers the scene at that time.

A large number of nobles rebelled, and as the best friend of the Knight King, he naturally stood firmly on the side of the Knight King.

Not only him, but Kurudo, who was in the north and was canonized by the Knight King, also stood firmly beside Kailin.

In the entire Kingdom of Nado, the two of them were the most solid supporters of the Knight King.

They firmly believed in the Knight King and stood firmly beside him.

The King's Guardian was the name of loyalty to them by people at that time.

After that, they fought with the Knight King.

In just half a year, the rebellion was quelled.

All rebellious nobles were suppressed.

And this time, the Knight King was no longer merciless.

All rebellious nobles were directly deprived of their territory and all their property was confiscated.

It's unceremonious to say that apart from a life, they basically have nothing left.

As for those lords who were neutral in the war, did not take action, and did not support the Knight King, they were also unlucky.

As neutrals, their fate was not as bad as the rebels. At least they retained some of their territory and strength, but the most important parts of the territory were basically deprived.

There were even many neutral lords, and the territory passed down by the entire family was completely deprived of, and then they were transferred to other barren places.

The entire Nado Kingdom was unified again.

And compared with the previous one, this time the cohesion has been greatly strengthened.

After all, in order to quickly complete the task of replacing the Kutu royal family, the Knight King did not touch the cheese of the hereditary nobles, but tolerated them, so he only retained a nominal unified country.

But this time, except for a few places, the entire country is directly under the royal family, so there is naturally no problem.

Even a few places without direct jurisdiction, such as the territory of Kerry and Kurudo, have cooperated to complete the reforms, including many officials appointed and removed from the royal family.
