"You mean what you say!"
He who draws his sword is the king.
This made all the nobles in the entire conference room moved. Who doesn't want to be a king
A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier.
same.
A noble who doesn't want to be a king is not a good noble.
Facing these nobles in front of him, Feng Yuchen didn't have any objection -
"That's right. If you pull out this sword, everyone from the nobles to the common people can become kings!"
After Anrietta looked into Feng Yuchen's eyes, she said firmly that she believed in Feng Yuchen. At this moment, what else was worth hesitating about? The only ones he can trust are Louise and Feng Yuchen. Either they succeed or they become benevolent, and the future must be opened up by their own hands. She is the one who wants to become the queen! ! !
Queen Mariana had never seen Anrietta who was as determined and persistent as she is now. She couldn't help but glance at Feng Yuchen, who was also high-spirited. Feeling the noble kingly aura exuding from him, she couldn't help but sigh, even if It's a crazy thing. She also believes in her daughter -
"Since Her Highness Henrietta said so, then this matter is confirmed. The one who pulled out this sword is King Tristin. If no one pulls it out, then if Henrietta pulls out this sword, she will be the one who pulls out this sword." What do you think of the next king, Cardinal Masalini, Queen of Tristin?"
Everyone looked at Military Minister Masalini, a thin man in his 40s wearing a round hat and a gray dress. His hair and beard were all white, and even his outstretched fingers were skin and bones. A man who looks much older than his actual age. After the death of the late king, he single-handedly handled foreign affairs and domestic affairs, which made him extremely old.
At this moment, he was seriously fiddling with his beard while looking at Princess Anrietta and Feng Yuchen. He sighed and said: "Finally, I can see a trace of the majesty of the king. The decayed Tristine has begun to sprout. Then I In this matter, the one who pulls out the sword from the stone is the chosen king, no matter the princes, nobles or common people.
Facing the invasion of foreign enemies, being able to choose a king destined by heaven can also bring courage and hope to the country. This is a very good decision, but it just requires Her Royal Highness the Princess and the entire Toristin royal family to endure the humiliation. …”
"Snapped!"
Feng Yuchen slapped his big hand on the table and said: "This is not about enduring humiliation, but about choosing a king by nature. As a descendant of the royal family, if you don't have the ability to pull out the sword of king selection, you really are not worthy of being a king, starting from now on Well, everyone is qualified to try to pull out this sword. A noble who doesn’t want to be a king is not a good and noble noble. Just try, I will prove it to you!”
“…”
After Feng Yuchen finished speaking, the nobles in the conference room immediately started whispering to each other, each of them showing various emotions.
Finally a nobleman stood up -
"Your Highness Henrietta, can I try?"
"Your Majesty the Viscount, if you please..." Henrietta did not hesitate.
Then, under everyone's nervousness, the viscount grasped the hilt of the golden sword that must win with both hands -
"rise!!"
With a loud shout, the viscount used all his strength, but—
The golden sword of victory remained motionless on the table.
"How is that possible? It's just a sword..."
The viscount couldn't help but show an extremely disappointed expression. It seemed that he didn't have the blood of the king, and all his thoughts about the throne disappeared completely.
"I'll try too..."
"I'll try too..."
“…”
Then one noble after another tried to pull out the golden sword of victory, but still couldn't shake it.
“…”
In the end, only Cardinal Masalini was left, and everyone's eyes turned to him again.
"Then I'm brave enough to give it a try..."
Masalini was also hesitant in his heart. If he could pull out the Sword of King Selection, would it mean that he could become the king? From the looks of it, Henrietta didn't look like she was joking in Assis. This shouldn't be a trick, but a real one. 'The Choosing of the King'.
"Excuse me, Your Excellency Cardinal..."
Henrietta said, no one seemed moved at all.
Masalini stood up, solemnly held the sword in the stone, and pulled it out with all his strength, but—
Still no different from those nobles.
Someone even used the power of wind magic just now, but even so, there was no way to pull out the sword.
"It seems that God has destined that the old minister will not be able to become the King of Tristin!"
Masalini immediately knelt down on one knee in shame and said, "Thank you to Your Highness Henrietta for your tolerance for allowing me to draw my sword..."
"It goes without saying..."
Henrietta raised her hand tolerantly, motioning for Masalini to stand up, and said, "Having powerful ministers is also the pride of a monarch. Your Excellency, Cardinal Masalini, I am no longer the immature princess. I have to take on the responsibilities If the future queen of this kingdom cannot tolerate the power and ambition of her ministers, how can she make this country stronger and more prosperous? A king cannot build a country, and I need your help!"
Feng Yuchen looked at Anrietta's behavior and nodded. This is the style of a queen.
"Then, the king selection ceremony will continue tomorrow. Not only the nobles and ministers have the right to draw the sword, but also the common people. Let God decide the king and choose the real king who can lead this country to strength."
Mariana said, seeming to believe Feng Yuchen's identity. The Sword of King Choosing? Legend has it that it is also a morale-boosting thing. If the late king really comes to guide the future of this kingdom, then it will definitely be able to summon the morale of the soldiers!
"Your Majesty, I will prepare now and call on all the people of Toristin. If no one can successfully pull out the Sword of King Selection at noon tomorrow, then it will be up to Highness Henrietta to pull out the sword, but..."
As Masalini said, he couldn't help but think about what if...
"Just what??" asked Anrietta.
"But if you can't draw the sword by then, who will be the king?" Masalini said worriedly.
"Then let's pull it out here first..." Mariana said looking at Henrietta.
"Need not… "
Feng Yuchen refused and said, "This is a sacred ceremony. After trying it and then drawing the sword in front of the people of Tristin, wouldn't it be a fool? A true king does not need to have any doubts, as long as he has the blood of the king With will, you can pull out this sword!"
Anrietta also nodded and said: "What the late king said is correct. This is a sacred ceremony. There is no such thing as trying. I only have one chance!"
