Chapter 119

After listening to Ize's words, Pochi thought for a long time.

Once the Principality of Cabel really declares its independence, the Principality of Eaton will inevitably be involved.

Seeing that Pochi has been hesitating, Ize continued:

"King Boqi, instead of being a submissive king of the Principality for the rest of your life, you should work hard and become a truly sovereign king."

Poch replied: "But if the army of the Norman Empire invades, how long can this sovereign king last?"

"The Black Pine Mountains are inherently dangerous. If our two countries lay ambushes on both sides of the valleys of the Black Pine Mountains, the numerical advantage of the Norman Empire's army will be greatly weakened. Moreover, my father and King Arthur of the Ice and Snow Kingdom have a good relationship. If you fight against Catherine, you may not be able to cause the Norman Empire to suffer heavy losses."

"That old guy Arthur, he won't cooperate with me." Boqi and Arthur have always been at odds, and they both look down on each other.

"The conflict between you and King Arthur is all about the mines. Once you can take back the mining area to the east of Black Pine Mountain, the minerals in the Alps will not be important." Ize said.

The minerals in the Black Pine Mountains had been the territory of the Principality of Eaton before, but were forcibly seized by the Norman Empire.

"Well, anyway, no matter what, your father is determined to be independent, right?" Pochi sighed.

Izer: "Yes, Your Majesty, it is a good opportunity for the Arctic giants to attack at this time. The forces of the Norman Empire must be concentrated in the northern border. As long as you withdraw immediately, I believe Catherine will fight the battle in the northern border very well." Difficult, the more the army of the Norman Empire suffers, the smoother our road to independence will be. At that time, Catherine may not even have enough troops to attack us."

After Ize's analysis, Pochi finally nodded and made up his mind:
"Since it has reached this point, I have no choice but to board the same boat as you. I will immediately withdraw my troops in the Norman Empire. You go back and tell your father that I agree to declare independence with you."

"King Boqi, on behalf of everyone in the Principality of Cabel, I thank you for joining the alliance." Ize bowed and saluted as a gentleman.

"I can't help it if I don't join, Prince Yize, I am really surprised by your eloquence and wisdom. I believe that when you become king, the Principality of Cabel, no, the Kingdom of Cabel will definitely develop better and better."

"Thank you for your praise. The Kingdom of Eaton will become richer and stronger without the heavy taxes of the Norman Empire." Ize smiled.

……

After Ize left, Pochi was about to arrange for his cronies to go to the northern border of the Norman Empire, and withdrew all the garrisons as soon as possible.

At this moment, Prince Hans came in. He followed Ize and hid at the entrance of the main hall to eavesdrop for a long time.

But he didn't hear clearly, he only vaguely heard that the Principality of Cabel seemed to be independent, and he even instigated his father to join them.

Hans thought that once the two countries declared their independence, the Norman Empire would definitely send troops to attack them. In his impression, the cavalry of the Norman Empire were invincible, so he was very worried that he would not even be the king. If you sit on it, you will already die.

Regardless of his father's scolding, he hurried to the hall:

"Father, I'm sorry, I just eavesdropped on your conversation outside the palace." Hans asked anxiously, "Have you promised to become independent with the Principality of Cabel?"

Pochi was very angry, and said sharply:
"You are really getting more and more unruly now! It's okay to eavesdrop on such low-level behaviors, and now I need to get your consent to make a decision?"

Hans now only cares about whether he can make a safe transition. Being the king of the Principality of Eaton and being scolded by his father are trivial matters.

"Father, you must not listen to that boy Yize. He is harming us. The Norman Empire can easily destroy us." Hans only wanted to persuade his father.

"In your eyes, the Norman Empire is so powerful, and our Principality of Eton is so vulnerable?" Boqi said with a straight face when he heard such words that raised others' prestige, very displeased.

Hans hurriedly explained: "No, father, that's not what I mean, I mean we don't need to take this risk, it's good to be a principality with peace of mind, isn't it?"

Boqi looked at Hans, and said coldly: "You are worried that we will destroy the country, and you haven't even been the throne for a day, have you? Do you want me to pass the throne to you now?"

Hans was seen through by his father, and his face was a little ugly, "No, my father, I am thinking of you and the common people of the Principality of Eaton. If there is a war, everyone will have a hard time."

Pochi looked at his short-sighted and cowardly prince, and felt that his son was even more incompetent compared to Ize just now.

"I should really consider whether to change the crown prince. Both of your younger brothers are more suitable than you to be the king of the Principality of Eton!" Pochi said coldly, "Get out, this matter has nothing to do with you."

It was not the first time for Hans to hear his father say that he wanted Yi Chu, and he became more and more flustered. If his father really made his younger brother the crown prince, he would never even think about being a king for the rest of his life.

Power is the most addictive and addictive.

"Yes, father." Hans lowered his head and replied, a trace of evil thought flashed in his eyes.

Pochi didn't expect that his angry words would be taken seriously by Hans, and even made Hans think of killing his father.

……

The Duchy of Cabel, the rural outskirts of Yorkshire.

Sitting in front of the door, Fanka took out the handkerchief that Ize wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth that night.

The red blood stains on the handkerchief had been cleaned by Fanka with soap locust, and he kept it with him all the time, hoping to return it to Ize when he had the chance.

Although Fanka was only eight years old, he knew that Prince Yize was a very good person. He not only saved his life, but also sent someone to send him back to his grandfather's house.

On the day he returned home, grandpa Steve recognized Prince Izzy's entourage Charlie, and grandpa thanked him again and again.Only then did Fanka know that a kind reminder from Prince Yize had also saved his grandfather's life.

Later, brother Charlie gave their family a gold coin before leaving, enough to feed them for several years.

In this way, Prince Yize's kindness to their family is heavier than that of Dashan.

Fanka was very grateful to Yize in his heart. Later, Fanka remembered this kindness in his childhood for a lifetime, and he never thought that he would become a minister of the Cabel Principality when he grew up, and stay with Yize all his life.

……

Ize returned to the Principality of Cabel, went to the palace to report his safety to his father and queen mother, and then discussed with Robert about the withdrawal of troops and King Boqi's promise of an alliance.

By the time Ize returned to his castle, it was almost dark.

After dinner, Cinderella, Annie, and Snow White are fighting the landlord.

In the game of Fighting the Landlords, Ize taught Snow White, and she taught Cinderella and Annie.

During this time, when they were free, the three of them often played poker.

Of course, the bet is limited to sticking stickers on the face.

Looking at Anne with the notes all over her face, Ize couldn't help but smile, and said in her heart:
"It seems that during the time I left, they got along very well."
