Half a month later, the village returned to calm again. Although people did not know the meaning, they also recognized Ragnar as the new king. At least in the eyes of ordinary people, Ragnar is what a Viking should be like.
, clear rewards and punishments, no favoritism.
As for Tanya, the Blessed Knight, she does not have these worries. She is the pride of all Vikings. No matter where she goes, she is like a star holding the moon.
The giant gate of Qunzhai was completely new, with countless ice-field butterflies engraved on it, and it exuded a unique aroma of new wood. Some stubborn aristocratic families were uprooted and replaced by a group of new dignitaries. The official document of King Fernando of the Ancients finally arrived at the Strait of Oblivion and was spread out in front of Ragnar. However, Ragnar just grinned disdainfully and threw the document into the fire.
Seeing this, all the nobles applauded, and many even drew out their scimitars and chanted Viking war cries. Although they were nobles, they were also full-fledged Vikings.
"Damn King Ogu, damn Ogu Continent, we Vikings are flesh and blood, no one will succumb to dogs!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, our place is King Augu's trash can. Aren't those death row prisoners sent here every year the root cause of instability in the frozen continent?"
"Hmph! I can't control your treachery, but my family will never bow to King Aogu! Who dares to talk nonsense? Believe it or not, I will tear your mouth apart!"
"Keep your voice down, keep your voice down, where is the minimum elegance of a noble? Our tundra continent is already very barren, do you still want to embarrass yourself in etiquette?"
Dozens of nobles, big and small, kept arguing, and the way you spoke and I spoke almost made the ceiling of the hall almost collapse.
Tanya turned a deaf ear to this, and even walked to the window sill to admire the pots of cherished plants. She was not interested in such intrigues, or in other words, she was not interested in anything other than Ragnar.<
/p>
Ragnar smacked his lips, and then he squatted on the steps under the throne again. The blood-stained cane hit the ground rhythmically, making bursts of noise.
When the nobles saw this situation, they stopped talking. They all looked at Ragnar, waiting for the other party's personal answer, or a promise.
"First of all, I don't care about the title of Lord of the frozen soil, and I don't mind giving it up to talented people."
"Secondly, I simply can't stand Adrian. But now that he is dead, I miss the leisurely time fishing on the ice sheet even more."
"Finally, since you are so brave, let's attack the Augu Continent tomorrow. Whoever retreats will be the son of a pig!"
Ragnar's expression slowly cooled, and then he broke the blood-stained cane, and even threw the crown of the King of the Tundra at the feet of the nobles.
The nobles' expressions changed greatly when they saw this. Although they were the heroes who supported the new king, they could not go beyond the courtesy of a monarch and his ministers. Tanya scanned the crowd silently, and the meaning was self-evident.
It was only at this moment that everyone truly recognized Ragnar's status as the Lord of the frozen soil, or it was the first time that they felt fear.
"This is the main hall of Qunzhai, not your banquet hall. If no one dies in the future, don't come here again."
"Also, I have repatriated all your personal guards, and the families of the deceased warriors have received a generous pension."
"I don't like to go round and round. Everyone is here for their own interests, and so am I, Ragnar. So we should go straight from now on, otherwise if I misunderstand, the consequences will be very serious."
"Now I am going to attend the imperial meeting. Today is the last time, and it is also the beginning of a new era. You all should go back and think about it carefully, whether you choose to follow me or rebel."
After Ragnar finished speaking, he walked to a certain stone room without waiting for the nobles to speak again. Tanya snorted coldly, and then scanned everyone like a demon.
A moment later, all the nobles left the village hall. They either gathered in twos and threes and discussed the new king's temperament, or they quickly returned to the family courtyard with a gloomy face.
But what everyone doesn’t know is that everyone’s words and deeds are recorded. And these recorders are just ordinary people.
Two hours later, Tanya kicked open the door of the stone chamber with a dark face. She saw a stack of parchment scrolls in her hand, which was the running account recording who was close and who was evil.
Graeber took a sip of tea, and then closed his eyes again to rest. He seemed to have no interest in these things. A gold coin kept turning over on his fingertips, and finally fell on the table.
Oceanus snorted coldly, then took out the scimitar from his waist and threw it in front of his eyes with a clang. As a swordsman, he didn't bother to waste time with anyone except Tanya.
Onomamus frowned, neither getting angry nor turning a deaf ear. After some thought, he spoke first to break the calm of this first imperial meeting.
"Although I have always advocated avoiding killing, the stability of the frozen continent is the foundation, and this foundation must be stained with blood and is destined to be replaced with the new."
"So I think we should get rid of all those who have different intentions, regardless of their title, and regardless of whether their relationship network is strong or not."
"And this matter must be troubled by Tanya-sama personally, and the root cause must be eradicated, from the dying person to the newborn baby."
Onomamus's voice echoed in the stone chamber. Oceanus laughed loudly when he heard the words, and even smashed the tea cup with his hand.
Graeber came back to his senses for a rare moment, and saw him looking at the other party with a smile, and then threw the gold coin in his hand. A buzzing sound appeared instantly, and finally it fell into the palm of Onomamus.
Tanya nodded indifferently, but her eyes were turned to Ragnar. She only obeyed Ragnar's orders, and as for what she was doing, it didn't matter at all.
"That's a very good suggestion. Let's do it. Although I am the Lord of the Tundra Continent now, I care more about the relationship with you."
"As I said, it doesn't matter to me whether I am the 'king' or not. But if it hurts the relationship between our brothers, I cannot accept it."
"Oceanos, from now on all the principality's cavalry will be under your control, and you will be the commander."
"Grab, Adrian has entrusted all of Adrian's finances to you over the years, and you will take the position of financial officer."
"Onomamus, although you are not a native Viking, you are still loyal to me. The consulship of the group belongs to you, and I hope you can give me a stable environment."
"God's Blessed Knight Tanya, I canonize you as the Mother of the Permafrost, and you can exercise all my rights at will."
Ragnar raised his head and drank all the ale in the cup, and then ordered without hesitation. These are things he has thought about for a long time, and they are arrangements for several old friends.
"In addition, I decided to change the development direction of the frozen continent, cut off contacts with other principalities, and reject the exiles sent by King Ogu."
"Since those arrogant guys look down on us, then why should we grovel and put all our energy into making good friends with the foreign races? Although King Ogu is very powerful, he can't control anything beyond the shadows."
