Returning from winter, and in the blink of an eye, summer, Rita and her army have reached the royal city after a long and long journey.

At this moment, the news of the Lion King's fall has not yet spread. The insiders are all loyal to the royal family. With the Count of Black Crow in the north, the sun is getting hotter day by day, and the carriage storing the bones of the Lion King floats a faint evil. The stench, despite using all the antiseptic means imaginable, even made the extraordinary knight keep guarding the whole body of the lion king with the aura of knighthood, but in nearly half a year, it was time to rot.

Fortunately, now that he has reached the royal city, the lion king can also be buried in the Zulin in his heroic manner.

Back at the palace, the Earl of Manton first asked the knights of the Guardian Knights to lead the troops back to the barracks, and then parted ways with Rita himself.

Everything here is still the same as when she left. The maid guard Ke Zhong is conscientiously completing her duties, the palace is not dusty, and the words of the garden are still blooming beautifully. Zhongfu remembered that his father and king used to tease him in the flowers, and there was a trace of sadness in the corner of his eyes, but he was almost pressed down again.

Taking the kettle from the gardener who was watering the flowers, Rita evenly sprinkled the pot of water on a group of bright and colorful flowers, then handed the kettle back to the gardener, and walked to the palace hall without looking back.

In the inner court, she put on the luxurious clothes that she hated before. Rita walked to the throne where her father used to sit. It was so natural and unremarkable. A group of nobles who were invited said.

"My father died in battle, and I shall succeed him!"

After speaking, he ignored the whispers in the palace hall and sat firmly on the throne.

On the throne, Rita's eyes were deep, and she looked down at the nobles below the stage. The nobles who came here today are the territorial nobles around the royal city, as well as many honorary nobles who do not have fiefs and officials who manage the royal city.

In fact, it doesn't matter to many fief aristocrats who the king of the kingdom is. The territory belongs to them, and the king will not interfere in the affairs of their territory. The only thing they have to do is to pay taxes to the king regularly.

As for the people here, they have more or less received the favor of the Lion King, and they have no resistance to Rita's succession, but they don't dare to talk nonsense until no one takes the lead.

The whispers in the hall were buzzing like flies in the market, and Rita couldn't help showing a look of boredom, but she quickly took it back.

In the palace hall, the nobles gathered together in twos and threes and whispered, and looked at Rita on the throne from time to time. After Rita said lightly that she would take the throne, everyone was waiting for a leader to appear. Fortunately, they were not kept waiting for a long time. After changing his armor, Earl Manton, who was wearing a noble robe, walked in from the gate of the palace. As soon as he entered the hall, he attracted everyone's attention.

Earl Manton took a few steps forward obediently, stopped a few meters away from the throne, and then half-kneeled to salute: "Your loyal vassal, Rexag Manton, I extend my highest regards to Her Majesty the Queen. , may your brilliance lead our kingdom of Raika to prosperity."

As soon as Earl Manton's voice fell, all the nobles in the hall half-knelt on the ground, put their palms on their chests, and followed Earl Manton to salute and say hello: "My most lofty greetings to Her Majesty the Queen, may your glory lead us The kingdom of Raika is prosperous."

"Well, let's all get up." Rita's clear voice was a little deep at the moment, and it was full of majesty. Although the golden lion collar was destroyed, she also managed it for nearly a year, plus the year when she fought with the grasslands. It is she who is in charge of coordinating the allocation of food and grass, and the potential developed during this period should not be underestimated.

With Rita's approval, Earl Manton and other nobles stood up one after another. At this moment, they were not talking, and the hall fell silent for a while.

Rita was not used to it just after taking office. After thinking about it, he coughed twice and said, "My father's body should be buried in Zulin as soon as possible. You are responsible for this matter, Uncle Manton."

Rita's gaze turned to Manton, who bowed respectfully and took command: "I'll serve you."

Rita looked around the nobles in the hall: "Uncle Tosford died in the battle with his father, but the military aircraft should not be abandoned, so Zelei, the head of the Guardian Knights, will be the leader of the Knights for the time being. Come and write a letter to convey it!"

The affairs officers obeyed their orders and quickly wrote a document. After obtaining Rita's approval, they stamped the royal family's coat of arms and handed it over to the palace guards to send to the barracks.

Rita doesn't plan to replace her father's men. One is that she has not enough manpower, and the other is that if she has just taken office, she will clean up the manpower left by her father on a large scale, which will bring disaster to her rule, but The Military Aircraft Department is different. It is responsible for coordinating all the secret agents in the kingdom. If you want to know which nobles have other hearts, this department needs to be firmly in their hands.

Fortunately, this time he succeeded to the throne, and he did not lack the rule of force, with the Vanguard and Earl of Manton nearby, and the white wolf Geralt in the distance.

Thinking of Geralt, Rita's face couldn't help showing a touch of coquettishness, her eyes were tender and watery, and the waves were flowing.

"Come here, I'm writing a document. In this battle on the grassland, Viscount Geralt of the kingdom fought bravely to kill the enemy, killing thousands of enemies with five hundred cavalry, and even more than ten thousand people, the first to break through the grassland. The city walls of the royal court have made great contributions, and their title has been elevated to an earl to reward those who have merit."

"In addition, Leif, the leader of the vanguard army, is also a first-timer, bestowing the title of lord, and the next officers are promoted step by step."

"......"

"......................"

One after another, the rewards kept coming out of Rita's mouth~lightnovelpub.net~ The affairs officers kept writing and stamping and handing them over. As time passed, the nobles in the hall not only did not have any troubles. I mean, it's more of a surprise, because they also have a share in this reward. Although they didn't go to the grassland with the Lion King, they were not stingy when they contributed money. Rita's reward today is considered a won over their hearts.

And the price is that the royal treasury has completely bottomed out and can no longer take out even a single piece of copper, but these Ritas are not worried. Before leaving, Geralt promised her that he would send her a lot of luxury goods, like candy Commodities such as blocks, spirits, and glass will soon come to the royal city, and the empty royal treasury will be filled again.

This is a win-win situation. Geralt uses the royal family's caravan to spread his influence throughout the kingdom, while Rita uses these goods to make a fortune. Besides, she is also the one who sent these things from White Wolf Town. The money was to be given, but Geralt allowed her to owe a little first.

Under the throne, Earl Manton, who was hiding in the crowd, nodded involuntarily. Although Rita was still young, she was still coherent in dealing with nobles. She could see the shadow of the Lion King, and thought of the Lion King, Manton. The count couldn't help but sighed and stepped back slowly.
