Above the Pirate King

Chapter 385

Xihai
kingdom of sira
This kingdom is located in the southeast of St. Maarten. It is currently the closest kingdom to St. Martin. If you set sail from the island where the Kingdom of Tifossy was originally located just south of St. Maarten, which is now the Perfume Island of St. Martin, it only takes two days. It can be achieved!
The territory of the kingdom is an archipelago, with more than a dozen islands, large and small!
The country is in a relatively hot climate all year round. Although it is not suitable for growing food due to the soil and soil, it is rich in various fruits. It is a famous fruit kingdom in the West Sea!

And this kingdom has 40 citizens and about 3 troops. Its combat power and equipment are among the best in the neighboring kingdoms except St. Martin. Therefore, even though it is a non-joint country, it is rarely attacked by pirates!
At this time, the palace hall of King Sila!
A middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes, with a crown, a slightly protruding belly, and a solemn face walked around the hall frowning, as if he was thinking about something embarrassing!
He is the king of Sila Kingdom, Ethelbert!

Compared with the kings of other kingdoms, Ethelbert's background is not very good. He is a side effect of the previous king after dating his lover outside --- an illegitimate child!
Originally, based on his background, the throne of the Kingdom of Sila was out of reach for him, not to mention that the king at that time not only had his illegitimate son, but also had three biological sons, which made the throne far away from him. Farther!
But it is a son after all!

The previous king was more affectionate. He knew that this illegitimate child had nothing to do with the throne, so he was going to find any reason to confer him a Marquis position, so that he could enjoy endless glory and wealth for the rest of his life!

However, Ethelbert, who was smart since he was a child, is not content to be just a Marquis!
He wants to be king more!

But how could an illegitimate son of his be king?
unless
When the previous king had no other heirs! ! !
Therefore, he began to count his three brothers, that is, the three biological sons of the previous king who had the right to inherit and fought for power!
Relying on his status as an illegitimate child and his lack of any possibility of inheriting the throne, he approached the eldest prince and joined his camp!
At that time, the eldest prince faced him, a brother who had no possibility of inheriting the throne, and didn't mind showing his brotherhood in front of outsiders, so he easily accepted him and joined his camp, and often took him everywhere to attend Banquet, show a touching scene of brothers and sisters in front of outsiders!

However, Ethelbert didn't come here to let the prince show off his brotherhood!

Therefore, under his design, when the eldest prince and the eldest prince were unprepared, during a certain conflict between the eldest prince and the second prince, the second prince's people accidentally killed the eldest prince!

The eldest prince died, and the second prince was deposed by the previous king because of this matter, and he was directly exiled abroad!
In the end, the third prince fell from the sky with joy and directly became the only heir to the throne!

But it doesn't end there!

After scheming the two brothers, Ethelbert turned his target to the third prince!

Similarly, using his status as an illegitimate child and his lack of any possibility of inheriting the throne, he approached the third prince!
Also, the third prince was going to use him to show his brotherhood, so he easily accepted Ethelbert's approach!

Afterwards, Ethelbert put a special poison into the third prince's daily diet by buying the chef and poisoning him, which made the third prince suffer from a terminal illness and died of illness soon after!

In the end, when all the princes died and only his own son was left with no choice, even if the king sensed something was wrong, he had no choice but to pinch his nose and list him as the heir!

Then, after the king died, he also successfully inherited the throne!

However, my family knows about my own family affairs, and his position is not right after all. If someone finds out what he has done before, it will be very troublesome even if he is already a king, and the royal family is not only He was alone, so he was even in danger of being kicked out!
So ever since he ascended the throne, he has become suspicious!

There are always bad people trying to harm me!
With this in mind, he began to eradicate some ministers who disobeyed the order, as well as the royal relatives who threatened his throne!
It has only been 15 years since he ascended the throne, and he has executed hundreds of people, which means that on average, seven or eight ministers and members of the royal family die in his hands every year!
This has elevated his authority to the point that even if people find out what he did in the past, it will not endanger the throne!

And it was his clever, suspicious, and ruthless character that made him one of Arthur's targets!

Closer to home!
Today, he is no longer in the mood to care about the intrigue in the kingdom!
"Are you telling the truth?" Ethelbert, who was walking back and forth, couldn't help but ask the burly man kneeling in front of him again!

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The burly man affirmed with a respectful expression on his face, "My subordinates indeed saw the Queen of the Wright Kingdom quietly heading to St. Maarten Island near Blood Harbor Town!"

St. Maarten can send people to be spies in other kingdoms, and people from other kingdoms can also send people to be spies in St. Maarten!

And the burly man is the immediate boss of the intelligence personnel in charge of this aspect of the Sila Kingdom!

"Queen Wright!!!" Ethelbert had a look of shock and anger on his face!

What surprised him was that Queen Wright appeared near St. Maarten!

What was so angry was that Queen Wright appeared near St. Maarten!

Queen Wright is also one of them who are preparing to unite against the Kingdom of St. Martin, and it is the closest kingdom to their kingdom!
And now Queen Wright suddenly appeared near St. Maarten, still quietly, which made him feel bad for an instant!
After all, they had just finished discussing the joint matter, and when they were preparing, the queen of one of the kingdoms suddenly arrived quietly, and the capital of their target kingdom was St. Maarten. In this case, he knew it was not a good thing with his ass!

at this time.

"Da da da!"

There was a sound of rapid footsteps.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" A soldier hurried into the hall, shouting anxiously as he ran.

Seeing the soldier's hasty look, Ethelbert's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly felt something bad, so he hurriedly asked, "What's the matter!"

"Not good! Not good! General Abby Abby, I found out that St. Martin's army...army, assembled...assembled!" The soldier panted and said the whole thing!

betrayed!

This thought flashed through Ethelbert's mind!

He received the news that Queen Wright quietly went to St. Martin, and the army of St. Martin began to gather. If he was not betrayed, he would not believe it if he was killed!
Of course, the main question now is not to believe it or not!
But St. Martin's army is gathering!

In other words, St. Martin is ready to deal with the next target!

So who will they choose?

Is it the kingdom of Syrah closest to them, or another kingdom?

If you think about it differently, if he was from St. Martin, how would he choose?

When Ethelbert thought of the answers to these questions, his hair stood on end and his heart trembled! ——
at the same time!

Among the kingdoms preparing to unite, some kingdoms also received the same information but with different contents, so they all showed different expressions!
