The four Grand Dukes looked at Lombard with different expressions: Olesiu frowned, his face full of surprise, Trudida looked sideways, extremely suspicious, Grand Duke Lecco's eyes remained motionless, as if frozen in place, Ronnie

He clenched his fists tightly, his eyes full of disdain.

After a while, Archduke Olesio asked everyone's thoughts softly: "Are you crazy?"

crackle.

The six large fire pots, mixed with other fuels such as eternal oil and firewood, burned more and more vigorously.

At this moment, half of the Black Sand Duke's body was hidden in the darkness, while the other half reflected the firelight in the hall.

Lumba turned around and looked at the empty seat at the end of the rectangular table, his thoughts moving slightly.

As a child, the scene of playing here with Harold seemed to reappear before my eyes.

He unconsciously pressed the sword on his waist.

"Who knows," Lumba said with an indifferent expression and cold eyes, "Probably."

Olesiu's expression became more and more confused, and his brow began to tremble slightly.

At this moment, Trudida, who had been squinting at Lumba, burst into laughter.

The other princes all looked at him.

"Dragon Xiao City, hahaha... Long Xiao City," Trudida put her right hand on the left arm she was holding horizontally, pressing it against her chin, her shoulders shaking with laughter, and the handle of light embroidered on her chest.

The shooting blade also shook up and down: "Carve up?"

The Grand Duke of the Reconstruction Tower laughed a few more times, as if he had just heard a good joke.

Apparently, his sense of humor did not rub off on the other four: they all looked at Trudida quietly, with cold expressions.

"Sorry...haha..."

"Forgive me for my gaffe, everyone." Grand Duke Trudida shook his head with a grin, his right hand still resting on his left arm, and he waved casually towards the grand dukes.

But there was no apology in his words.

"Sitting in the Grand Duke's seat, you don't often hear such shocking words," Grand Duke Trudida's smile slowly faded, but the smile still remained on his face, with deep meaning in his eyes:

"Especially from another Grand Duke."

Lumba looked at him and hummed, his expression unpredictable.

"Very good," Archduke Olesiu of Weilan Territory interjected coldly: "We have captured the vast land of Longxiao City and countless citizens, and we will have enough to eat and drink..."

"Then, I'll let your matter go lightly, right?" He was thoughtful, but his eyes were getting worse and worse:

"Like a good business?"

"The king's territory in exchange for the king's life?"

Lumba didn't even look at him, just looked into the air and said silently: "Don't over-interpret what I mean, Rebien - you have been prejudiced against me since you were young."

Olesiu sneered, his expression ugly.

Archduke Lecco, who was the only one sitting, let out a long sigh.

"Ignore the assassination of His Majesty Nunn, ignore someone's domineering and betrayal?" The oldest archduke shook his head, his expression became rarely serious: "This is not a good proposal."

Lumba looked at Lecco, his eyes sharp.

"I am sure this is a good proposal, Rogers, respected elder," he said seriously and respectfully: "Longxiao City is located in the heart of Exeter, with countless arteries, rich resources, vast territory, and fertile land.

Lead many people."

Lumba's eyes moved slightly: "It has a natural advantage of suppressing other territories."

"During the days when Nunn was in power, you all suffered greatly - the troops crossed the border, set up roadblocks, cut off supplies, stockpiled food, immigrated, opened up wasteland... He had many tricks to deal with us."

Grand Duke Lecco sighed, his eyes misty.

"So, to deal with Longxiao City," Lumba stretched out his right hand, looked around at the grand dukes, and slowly made a fist: "This is to make the shackles named Walton no longer exist, and to liberate the people sitting here...here

Everyone."

He glanced at the other four people.

But the other princes were unmoved.

Only Archduke Ronnie raised his chin slightly, showing an expression that was half-smiling at first, and then his eyes turned cold.

"It's really interesting..." he said solemnly.

"After all you did, after you shamelessly killed the monarch, after you led your troops to the Palace of Heroes," Ronnie's voice gradually revealed suppressed anger: "You actually want to use His Majesty the late King's

Profits and territory in exchange for our understanding and our complicity?”

"You still speak so grandly..."

"As if you are on our side and have to do this for our sake."

Grand Duke Ronnie took a cold breath in front of Lumba: "Fuck you, Lumba."

Lumba looked back at him expressionlessly.

Kulikun Roni of Qiyuan City - although he is as heroic, upright and uncompromising as the rumors say, this is the first time I have seen him.

Maybe it will be a problem.

Grand Duke Lombard closed his eyes and then slowly opened them.

"I must reiterate that although I have an unsolvable misunderstanding and even enmity with His Majesty Nunn," he said slowly: "But the whole tragedy last night?"

"It's all the plan of the Star People - you have all heard of the secret methods, and some of you may have seen them."

"The reason why I am here is to save ourselves before the trauma they left to the dragon kingdom worsens."

Olesiu interrupted him unceremoniously.

"So what is this?" The Grand Duke led by Weiland turned his head and glanced at Lumba with an ugly expression: "Find a sufficient price and then bribe us to endorse you?"

"So, you treat this glorious hall..." Olesiu's voice suddenly increased, and an angry look appeared on his face: "Are you treating this hall as a market where low-class people come and go, drink and bargain?"

"Don't tarnish our dignity, Your Excellency."

Lecco watched the conversation between several people with cold eyes and did not speak.

Lumba's face darkened, he lowered his head slightly and exhaled slowly.

"So, you don't accept this price?" His voice was a little low: "The same thing happened once - three hundred years ago, without Sarah as regent, Walton would have lost his love for the dragon because of the death of the lord.

The rule of Xiaocheng."

"That is to say."

"This is a rare opportunity for you in three hundred years..."

Hearing this, Ronnie couldn't bear it anymore. He slapped the table and shouted angrily:

"This is impossible!"

With an offended expression on his face, he yelled angrily: "You want us to degenerate and conspire with the regicide to cover up and tolerate the sins you should have committed and the consequences you left behind?"

"You are insulting us and you are insulting Exeter!"

Trudida laughed.

"Carve up Longxiao City? God, I can still hear these words in my lifetime - on this day when Old Wang is gone." He said gloomily, looking back and forth with his small eyes.

"But that doesn't make us wipe your ass," Grand Duke Trudida looked away from Lumba and said with a smile, "It's not a good way to bargain either."

Lumba looked back at the Grand Duke of the Rebuilding Tower, and his expression changed:

"Is it?"

"Trudida, no matter how much you open up the Mountains of Sighs, the barren Reconstruction Tower will always lack a piece of new farmland." Lumba turned around and faced Trudida head-on. What he said made the latter slightly startled.

: "But if there are two or even three counties southeast of Longxiao City, you no longer have to deal with the barbarians in the mountains, and you no longer have to worry about food shortages in every extremely cold day."

Trudida narrowed her eyes.

"You mean two enclaves that are not bordering my land?" The cunning Grand Duke sneered lightly: "Who is more beneficial?"

Lumba raised the corners of his mouth.

"Now that you said so," the Duke of Heisha said in a deep voice that made people shudder: "Perfit from Fengzhao City just passed away - and his territory is too close to Longxiao City."

The eyes of the four princes moved slightly again.

"I think that his young brother is not enough to take on the big responsibility." Lomba concluded coldly: "It just happens to solve the dilemma of rebuilding the tower - of course, in this case, the ownership of Longxiao City will be discussed separately.

, both Qiyuan City and Weilan Territory can share more."

Trudida was stunned. He looked at Lumba blankly, as if he was meeting him for the first time.

When Archduke Ronnie heard this, he cursed with a terrible expression: "Damn it!"

Boom, boom, boom.

Archduke Lecco tapped his fingers on the table with a subtle look in his eyes.

"From the little Charman who followed his brother in a daze in the past, to today's notorious Black Sand Duke..." His voice was long and steady: "I really underestimated you before - the old guy chose you over everyone's expectations.
