The Black Duke of Pirates

Chapter 64 Marly 1

Early the next morning, Dawn followed Clovis to a huge palace. The palace was extremely luxurious. There were steps up to the iron seat of the kingdom. A dozen nobles stood on either side of the iron seat.

More than a dozen nobles saw Clovey coming with Dawn and Barron, bowing in unison: “His Royal Highness.”

Clovis nodded blankly, and Barron whispered towards the dawn: “These ministers are all from Ktok.”

Nodded at dawn, and heard a loud voice coming from a distance.

“The King is here!”

Capeiro Marlie I!

This is the first time I saw the old King Marlie at dawn. The old king’s face was pale and dry, and he looked like his fate. He lay on a big chair and was carried into the main hall calmly by the guards.

This is the monarch who has dominated Polkaya for decades. From the shrewdness and bravery in his youth to the cruel and cruel officials in the middle and old ages, even though his life is far more magnificent than ordinary people, now he can only do it when he fell down like a beast. On the Iron Throne for a lifetime.

The guards entered the hall, but the people who followed up made Xiao Xiao a daze.

is her.

The blonde chick who played with foil I saw last night.

The little girl obviously noticed him, but she turned her head and deliberately ignored him, but Dawn clearly read a trace of resentment from his eyes.

da, da, da,

The twenty-meter long hall leads to Polkaya’s supreme throne in the depths, and the guards walked slowly step by step.

Coming to the front of the throne, the guard whispered a word against Marlie’s ear, and then the king slowly opened his eyes. At that moment, dawn felt a cold breath flashing past. It was Marlie. The arrogance and dominance naturally formed in the ten years of the king’s career.

“Welcome to the king.” After the old king opened his eyes, the ministers all worshiped in unison, and dawn followed the crowd.

The old king’s eyes were dizzy and muddy, “Help me… up.”

He seemed to be struggling to speak, and in the calmest voice, he commanded the guards next to him, and the two guards drove the old king to the throne.

Ketok nodded, his eyes were a little overcast. He didn’t understand why the old king hadn’t set foot on the king’s hall for two years, so why he suddenly came over today.

“My son, it should be soon before your succession ceremony.” The old king struggled for a long time on the iron throne before he felt comfortable. He leaned his back on the throne and looked at Clovis, although his speech speed was very slow. But every word is very clear, the voice is low, and there is the coercion of the superior.

Clovis, as the only legal heir to the kingdom, will be selected by the king’s retainers before he inherits the king’s rule.

“It’s this time next year.” Clovey stepped forward, kneeling down respectfully, and said in a deep voice.

“Oh…” The old king replied faintly, his voice was a little long, and he scanned everyone in the hall with his old and distracted eyes, “Today is the day to select the retainers, can someone choose?”

“Father, I already have two candidates.” Clovey replied.

“Which two people, are they young people in the royal city?”

“One of them is the son of the Holt family, Sir Barron. The other is a civilian, and I want to ask him to be my swordsman as a retainer.” Clovey raised his head slightly, looked at the king, and saw The king didn’t feel much emotion, so he continued: “I want Sir Barron to be my minister of staff, and the other person to be my swordsmanship teacher. Even if I become a king in the future, my swordsmanship cannot be abandoned.”

At this time, both Barron and Dawn came behind Clovis and bowed to Marlie: “King Ankang!”

Marlie looked at it with a scrutiny gaze. Sir Barron naturally knew that he was a boy of the Holt family, a nobleman in the kingdom. He had been playmates with Clovey since he was a child, and he was a young man with the status of a commoner at Dawn. , He has never heard of it.

“What is your name?” Marlie said suddenly and asked towards dawn.

Dawn lowered his head, pretending not to look directly at him: “Reinhardt.”

Reinhardt… Marlie said these four words lightly in his mouth, with unusual indifference in his eyes.

“My son, have you decided?” The old king turned his eyes back to Prince Clovis, “Choose these two young men to become future retainers?”

“Yes.” Clovis said solemnly.

“Well, just as you said, grant the retainer coat of arms.” Marlie made a quick decision and immediately agreed.

After Dawn heard it, he was surprised. He didn’t know in advance that this was the selection ceremony for the retainers. If he became the retainer of Clovis, it would be very detrimental to his plan to overthrow the Polkaya Kingdom, because if the retainer counter-judgment, he would definitely suffer. When everyone in the kingdom resisted, just when he was hesitant, Ktok on the other side finally spoke.

This old guy can’t help it anymore, can’t help it being good, you can’t help it but you helped me a lot.

“My lord, the selection of retainers should not be so hasty.” Ketok said in a deep voice.

Marlie glanced at the younger brother who had been in charge of the kingdom for more than two years, and said nothing.

Ketok sneered in his heart, met Marlie’s gaze, and said to the ministers around him: “Dear ministers of the kingdom, what do you think?”

A few of the ministers nodded and said yes, while the other part hesitated and did not speak. UU reading www.uukanshu.com saw this situation in their eyes at dawn, so it was naturally clear.

“You don’t understand the rules for selecting the retainers of the heirs of the kingdom, don’t you understand?” the old king said calmly.

Ketok saw Marlie’s still calm gaze, and there was always a faint tremor in his heart. This was due to the fear of Marlie in his heart. He forcibly suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, his eyes were on Dawn for a long time, and finally he said “My lord, Sir Barron becomes the prince’s retainer. I have no objection, but this guy is absolutely not allowed.”

“He was the guy who led the civilian riots before. It is definitely a factor of instability.”

Everyone was shocked. At first, I felt familiar when I heard the name Reinhardt, but now listening to Ktok’s words, I remembered that it was this man who led the civilian refugees to surround the city.

“Is there such a thing?” Mallie’s voice suddenly faded, looking at Clovis.

Clovis felt a little in his heart, and he didn’t dare to hide it: “Yes, Father.”

Mallie looked at Dawn again for a while: “Since you know the identity of this man, why do you choose him as a minister?”

It seems that there is a turning point, Clovey replied: “The riots were a matter of last resort, and Ge Fu was forced to conquer the heavenly gold, causing a large number of civilian deaths. If Reinhardt hadn’t calmed this matter, I am afraid that the civilians’ resentment would be fundamental. Cannot be eliminated.”

“And Reinhardt has so far only been doing business in the kingdom.”

“Even so, it’s absolutely impossible to want to be the prince’s retainer.” Ketok said again, without the intention of retreating halfway.

“It makes sense,” Marlie said. “Don’t mention the matter of making him a retainer.”

Dawn was very happy in her heart, and said secretly, Ktok, I thank you,
