Chapter 494: Changes in Drosrosa
Then, Scarlett came to the soldier guarding the gate and handed him the note in her hand.
The soldiers took the note and checked it. After confirming that there was no problem with the spiritual power mark on it,
A soldier said, "Wait a moment."
Then he walked into the palace with the note.
Not long after, King Liku and Cyrus were escorted out in handcuffs and shackles.
“Scarlett, Viola, Rebecca!
I'm so glad you're all right."
King Liku said excitedly as he looked at his daughter and granddaughter waiting at the door.
Cyrus also looked relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.
Scarlett: "Father! Cyrus."
Viola: "Great, Father, you can finally come out."
Both were very happy.
The soldiers then untied them.
King Liku and Cyrus were both confused.
I have no idea why they were released.
Scarlet then told the story, which surprised King Riku: "Scarlet actually agreed to your request, Scarlet."
"By the way, how are the citizens?"
King Riku said nervously.
Viola: "Everyone is fine. No one died."
King Riku breathed a sigh of relief: "That's great."
Then the group came to the street and saw that everyone was indeed fine.
"King Riku!"
"It's great that you're okay!"
Seeing King Liku appear, the common people happily surrounded him.
King Riku holds his granddaughter Rebecca in his arms.
"Grandpa's beard is itchy."
Rebecca's cheeks felt itchy from being pricked by King Riku's beard.
"Hahaha, really? Grandpa will shave his beard later.
This way my precious granddaughter won’t feel itchy.”
After finishing speaking, King Riku also began to ask the civilians about the situation in the city.
After learning that nothing dangerous had happened in the city, King Riku finally put his worries to rest.
It seems that only the royal family and dignitaries are under control...
After learning that Scarlet was outside of South City, King Riku and his party arrived there.
Looking at these slum dwellers who have received help, they are filled with renewed spirit.
King Riku burst into tears.
Moved:
"He is here to help our country. What a broad mind he has."
Cyrus also opened his eyes wide, looking in disbelief at the poor people who were being helped in front of him.
He also came from the slums, and he could understand how happy everyone was at the moment.
……
After hunger and disease were eliminated.
Started to provide temporary housing for these poor people.
The nobles' residence was very large, so they were temporarily settled there.
In the following days, the poor people and the captured soldiers of the kingdom were allowed to participate in the construction of the new city.
At the same time, start cultivating crops.
The whole kingdom was in an uproar.
Originally, King Riku and Viola temporarily lived in the house that Scarlett built in the flower field.
But King Liku could not sit still. He went outside every day. Seeing the country getting better day by day, he felt indescribably happy.
Finally, influenced by the atmosphere of reform, he pulled Cyrus together to join in the construction of the kingdom and was very busy.
Although King Riku has little ability in governing the country, it is true that he loves his people.
The country is getting better day by day, and King Liku, who is involved in it, is very happy.
As long as he can make the country better and the people can live a happy life, it doesn’t matter if he is not the king.
The noble ministers were also taken out by the soldiers to work.
When they could not bear this kind of suffering, they soon began to wail.
Finally, until the break
The ministers and nobles dragged their tired bodies and found King Liku while they were having a meal and resting.
Ask him to rally the loyalists to launch a counterattack against Scarlet and drive him out of the country!
After all, they were originally high-ranking figures, the chosen ones by God, and lived a luxurious life like the best of the best.
Now they were sent to work with these poor people whose lives were worthless, so naturally they were not happy.
Their eyes were filled with hatred for Scarlet.
Especially when they learned that their property had been confiscated and their homes had been used to accommodate these lowly civilians.
Their eyes were red with hatred.
Those were the wealth that their ancestors had worked hard to accumulate from the common people, and they were taken away for nothing.
How could they possibly be willing?
Moreover, King Liku and his family could let go of their pursuit of power, but they were unwilling to do so.
So, during their lunch break, they gathered together and found King Liku.
“King Liku, please gather the army again!
Resist!
Free the common people from Crimson's enslavement and drive the evil Crimson King out of the country!
Restore the glory of the Riku clan!"
The nobles all knelt down in front of King Riku who was eating, and made an impassioned request.
The powerful and wealthy showed their patriotism.
They belong to Edelweiss!
"This……"
King Riku swallowed the piece of meat in his mouth and put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hands.
"You don't have to do this, get up!
As long as the country can become more prosperous and the people can live better, there is no harm in giving up the throne!"
"No, King Liku, this country can only belong to the Liku clan, and we must not allow outsiders to sit on the throne!"
The eyes of the dignitaries were excited, and they showed their loyalty to the Riku clan!
Just when King Liku felt helpless and at a loss as to what to do.
There are civilians who are eating and their mouths are covered with oil.
After seeing what happened here,
After they swallowed the food in their mouths, they immediately ran away from here.
Found the kingdom's soldiers and reported that the powerful people were instigating King Riku to launch a rebellion!
After receiving the report, the soldiers immediately rushed to the scene and arrested the dignitaries.
The poor dignitaries were busy all morning and were imprisoned before they had even had time to eat.
Seeing this, King Riku could only sigh helplessly.
Just then, a few young men wearing new clothes but still with gangster-like hair came up to King Riku who was sitting on a rock eating.
Issued a warning to him.
"Hey, you old bastard! You better behave yourself!
Don't do unnecessary things!
Don’t cause trouble for Wang, otherwise we brothers will not let you go!
The king gave us food and shelter, and cured my mother's illness. He is our benefactor!
If you dare to destroy our current happiness, I will kill you!"
There was a young man who frightened King Riku with a fierce expression.
"That's right, old man, you'd better be sensible and not destroy our future!"
After the group spoke some intimidating words to King Liku, they left the place with laughter and went to get more food.
Seeing this, King Liku was not angry.
Instead, he looked up to the sky and laughed heartily: "Is that so... everyone has a bright future."
At this time, Cyrus also prepared his meal and came over here, with a lot of meat in his bowl.
“King Liku, what just happened?
The minister and his men have been arrested again."
"fine.
By the way, what are Scarlett and the others doing these days?"
King Riku asked as he turned on the phone.
Cyrus smiled happily and said, “This, I almost forgot to tell you.
Recently, a recruitment announcement was posted on the Crimson King bulletin board.
Scarlett and Viola tried, passed the interview, and became civil servants. "
After all, they are princesses of a country and are all literate.
King Riku: "Hahaha, is that so? That's really great.
What about Rebecca?
If Viola and the others work, my precious granddaughter Rebecca will have no one to take care of her."
"Don't worry, Rebecca has already entered the school founded by the Scarlet King.
This school is open to every child, regardless of social status.
Rebecca said she met many friends there and had a lot of fun every day.
Scarlett and Viola will pick up Rebecca from school after get off work every day, so don't worry."
Cyrus laughed heartily.
“A school where every child can go and learn…
Hahaha, interesting. "
Seeing that the country was being transformed by Scarlet for the better in a short period of time, King Riku couldn't stop showing joy on his face.
"By the way, King Riku, Scarlet seems to be short of talent right now.
Why don't you try it?
After all, you are the king of this country.
Know everything about the surrounding area and the country.
If you go there, you might be able to help a lot."
Cyrus devoured the meat rice in his bowl in big mouthfuls, enjoying it very much.
