Martial Arts Conquer System

Vol 14 Chapter 762: : Minister of Finance

"Your Majesty has rejected your request again?" Mingde's smile became even more crowded.

"Yes" I said. Maybe the entire Falcon City knows it now. I, the nouveau riche, used to be the Queen’s close guardian, and I jumped to the center of the new court by relying on my performance at critical moments, and even became the "one-man empire conference". But now he is obviously not welcomed by the little queen. Because for several days, my request to see the little queen was rejected. It’s not because of physical discomfort.

"Maybe it's because I don't feel well. Judge, now is the time for you to come." Mingde replied. This sentence is completely a disguised desire.

"Maybe," I replied, and then turned to think about it.

"By the way, count," Mingde asked suddenly. "I heard, you are no longer a part-time court supervisor?"

"Yes" I answered lightly. He really doesn't care, but this does not affect people's belief that his attitude is a disguise.

To be honest, since the Byron coup, the position of President of the Supreme Court, if not nominal, is at least trivial. Obviously, thousands of people including guards and dozens of officials, large and small, lived in the original palace. In addition to receiving a large number of guests from all over the world, they also received various information and various religious or political activities. Because of this, the president of the court Skadella has been busy with his work. But now, there are only a few dozen people working in the entire palace if the former regent’s residence can be counted as a palace, and there is no diplomatic reception at all, let alone royal events. The original intelligence work has been interrupted and Byron has taken all the personnel away, but it has not been restored. Grune has no right to care about the affairs of other countries.

I was removed from the post of chief court officer. As far as this matter is concerned, it is not at all, but to get rid of a position that does not make much sense. But the appointment and removal of these positions is a sign in itself. People with a good sense of smell are already aware of this problem.

"Well, nothing happened now." Mingde said. "Even if the position of the president of the court is vacant, it doesn't matter."

"I think so too." I was already impatient with the conversation, so he wanted to go again.

"My earl, do you look like you are going out?"

"Yes, I'm going to the guard." I replied. "Because I am the Chancellor of the Exchequer, but I am also the commander of the guard."

"Ah, I remember, that, Barranka."

"He is temporary" I smiled.

Seeing me leaving quickly, Mingde was stunned for a long time. There was no one nearby, so he could have enough time to think about the meaning of my sentence. To be honest, in the eyes of people with ulterior motives, anything meaningless becomes meaningful.

Two friends were sitting at the table by the window of the pub, drinking silently. Outside the window, the setting sun is like blood.

"Is there any news from Wang Cheng recently?" Essien asked.

I don't know when the Duke of Byron will no longer call Essien to a meeting. Therefore, his news was immediately closed, and many things must be learned by asking rumors or by asking Creole. But Essien was not surprised. If Byron's subordinates are divided into two factions based on their origins, then the Frost faction has an overwhelming advantage. Byron's return from Falcon is slowly being driven out.

auzw.com In addition to this trend, the Bayerheim incident also severely affected Essien's status. Until now, almost everyone under Byron knew that Essien had no future. In addition to a true confidant, who else would meet and chat with someone who has no future?

Anyway, Essien is in great shape now. At least because of his performance after the voluntary breakup, Byron treated him well. At least he has a position and salary. Many people who followed the Duke of Byron from the Falcon to Floss are now in trouble. Because they do have a lot of people, they don't need so many civil servants in Fros.

Finally, the Duke of Byron issued a new order to pay for his current position. Of course, there are also some exam competitions in name. But everyone with clear eyes can see Byron's true intentions. You know, when they come, their income is the same.

These people can survive now, but I am afraid that the future is not bright. On the one hand, the little queen of the Falcons gritted their teeth and accused them of following Byron, thinking that they were rebels; on the other hand, Byron no longer cared about their lives and deaths because they thought they were worthless.

I'm afraid they didn't expect this to happen when they followed Byron.

"Nothing," Creole replied. "Bayer went to Falcon City, but he hasn't come back. As for other information, it seems to have heard that I and the little queen fell out."

what. Essien uttered a meaningless sigh. No matter how I break, my destiny will not be better than those Falcon officials who chose the wrong master.

"What's the price of this wine?" Cleo asked, taking a sip of the wine. "To be honest, it doesn't taste very good."

"Don't ask me, it's not the best anyway." Essien replied somewhat frustrated. "You know, I can only get paid now, and I don't have a knight's salary anymore. I can't afford a better wine. If you don't like it, you can buy yourself some good things."

"You are no longer a knight" Creole smiled. This is true, because after Byron’s coup failed, the little queen of Falcon City had long declared that a large group of people, including Essien, were traitors and had been deprived of her title. But when they came to Frost once, the Duke of Byron would pay him according to his original title of nobility.

"Yes, I'm not a knight anymore." Essien raised her cup and raised it, bathing in the light of the setting sun. "And my colleagues. I'm already ahead. He is now an earl, and he has become the chancellor of the little queen."

"He traded his life for it. Essien, don't be jealous." Creole said. "In that case, if it were you, would you protect the queen?"

"I don't know" Essien replied. "Wealth is obtained from risk. If it were me. If I knew that doing so would get such a generous return. I might make the same choice as I did. People like us should risk our lives. In order to be successful in a short time."

"Oh, don't be so pessimistic, Essien. You know our little queen won't last long."

"To be honest, I don't believe it anymore."

"That's it. We took all the money from the treasury when we retreated. In fact, we took everything except those debt bills. Our little queen must now have financial constraints and can eat a slice of bread in three parts. "

"Ah, Creole, I know everything you say." Essien said. "But I clearly remember that when the Duke of Byron returned to Fros once, he said that the little queen would not live for a month. Then he changed his mind and did not persist for two months. Then three months. Then four months. Now. It's been eight months. Likewise, after listening so many times, anyone has the right to doubt the truth or lies. Are you right?"

"Essien, to be honest, this is a miracle. Even Lord Byron doesn't understand why our little queen still has so much money."
