Hogwarts: I'm just here to enjoy the magic

"I have behaved inappropriately. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

The two ministers who were reprimanded immediately apologized.

"Forget it, forget it." Jinhua VIII waved his hand.

These old guys, doesn't he know what they are thinking?

It's nothing more than seeing that Salil Territory has become a land without one, and I want to jump out and take it for myself.

I just let go of grabbing and grabbing every day, and don’t look at the fact that the Golden Flower Empire is about to get imminent.

Sometimes, he would wonder if those strange viruses were secretly developed by a big noble and released into the city.

Otherwise, even if everything is under good control, something will suddenly change.

Yes, I'm talking about the unlucky Earl Tushan.

After he lost Tushan City, he rushed all the way to the capital to report this strange disaster to him.

Earl Tushan spent about a week on the road. After arriving in the capital, he rested for another week before he was allowed to enter the meeting hall to report the specific situation of the disaster to him.

You've been in isolation for several days, but you still mutate into the living dead?

And in front of all the dignitaries?

Just in front of him, the dignified Golden Flower VIII, something changed?

If all this was not a conspiracy, he would rather chop off his own head and kick it as a ball.

Also, Duke Salil's attack was too quick and too strange.

Few people know that Duke Salil is actually a super awakened person, the kind of fierce man who can split a tall building with one sword.

Such a person could not defeat the living dead and died under the siege of the living dead?

Even ghosts don’t believe it after saying this.

There is no doubt that this is a conspiracy to purge someone of their power.

So, who is this someone?

That depends on whose support Duke Salil is.

Duke Saril was, on the surface, a reformist, a high-ranking nobleman who supported the New Deal implemented by the Golden Flower Empire.

Secretly, he is a die-hard loyalist of the Jinhua family.

After all, the Salil family had a marriage relationship with the royal family.

Not just the Salil family, but also the Tushan family.

These two royalists are so strange.

Jinhua VIII felt frightened.

It seems that some kind of conspiracy is unfolding around the throne.

Damn it, do these traitors and traitors think that with such things as spiritual arts, they can compete with the royal family?

In Jinhua VIII's mind, a large number of thoughts kept rolling and intertwining, and in the end, he suppressed them all.

"Now is not the time to discuss who Salil will take over as his successor." Jinhua VIII said with a sullen face, "I just want to know what's going on with the epidemic. Has it been completely controlled? You, keep reading!"

After receiving the instructions, the minister continued to read the information.

"After the complete fall of Saril Territory, several nearby lords began to build high walls at the borders of their territories to prevent the living dead carrying the virus from entering their territories. In addition, they also sent troops deep into their territories. Within, eliminate those living dead and try to solve the problem from the source..."

How can there be such kindness?

The nobles who were listening were full of slander.

The so-called elimination of the living dead is just an excuse. In fact, it is to plunder and plunder wealth.

Take the Salil family for example.

The Dukes of this family have accumulated much wealth in their own castle for generations.

Because of the appearance of the living dead, an entire household register died. Not a single cent of that wealth was spent, it was all in the treasure house.

As long as you run over and pry open the treasure house, you can take away the wealth that has been accumulated for countless years.

What a refreshing thing that is.

It’s not just the Salil family. The families that were attached to the Salil family had also accumulated a lot of wealth, and together they might be even richer than the Salil family.

no doubt.

At this time, the guy who can be the first to rush into Salil City will have his mouth full of food.

The powerful people felt extremely distressed when they thought of this.

It would be great if my own territory was adjacent to Salil Dukedom.

Although it is more dangerous, the rewards are really great.

If you are brave enough, you can secretly move the boundary markers to expand your territory a little bit.

It would be even better if I could swallow another mine or something.

"...So far, the newly emerged epidemic has been under control. At least so far, no new cases have been heard in other cities."

Jinhua VIII, who listened attentively to the report, touched his chin and asked with some confusion: "So, the proliferation of the living dead has been controlled within the Salil Territory?"

"If there is no false information, it should be like this." The minister nodded.

"Okay, a disease that is under control." Jinhua VIII breathed a sigh of relief.

As an emperor, he has gained so much, it is almost endless enjoyment.

On the contrary, I also became very afraid of death, for fear that I would never enjoy it again.

This is true even if you, as a member of the royal family, can live for hundreds of years casually.

Seeing that Jinhua VIII's mood was stable, a noble immediately jumped out and suggested: "Your Majesty, since the epidemic has been controlled, the next step is to go in and clean up the living dead, investigate the cause of the epidemic, and, for The Saril leader arranged for a new heir."

Heir, heir, heir.

Jinhua VIII was a little helpless.

But this is a topic that cannot be avoided.

Although the epidemic has ravaged the Golden Flower Empire for several rounds, and a large number of victims and refugees have appeared on the land, overall, the empire is still under the control of humans.

Since the system has not collapsed and power is still in their hands, of course these nobles will not care about too many trivial matters, such as the lives and deaths of ordinary civilians.

They only see the interests of their own family.

Seeing that the Salil Dukedom has become a deserted land, of course everyone wants to take a bite.

As soon as the issue of interests was involved, everyone became excited.

"Your Majesty, our family has a marriage relationship with the Salil family. In theory, our family has the right to inherit."

"Fart, if I remember correctly, your so-called marriage left nothing behind!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?!"

"Am I talking nonsense? You want me to make it clear, right? I remember clearly that your cousin married the sister-in-law of the current Duke of Salil. What happened? Your cousin was raped by his mistress not long after the marriage. They were killed by their lovers. And the sister-in-law of the Salil family ended up without any heirs and died in depression. Don't tell me that this innocent lady has an extra child in your mouth, right? "

The nobleman's words contained too much information, and some of them were not explained clearly.

Fortunately, everyone is an upper class person and knows what he is talking about.

"That's right, don't come here to get relatives in your family."

"To decide which family has the closest in-laws to the Salil family, we still have to look at the Tushan family."

"Speaking of Tushan's family, there is a little girl."

"Then it's her?"

"What if she becomes a living dead? Earl Tushan also suddenly turned into a living dead later. There is no guarantee that she will not change!"

"Then what do you think we should do?"

"Okay, okay, stop arguing now."

Jinhua VIII waved his hand.

"Let's do this. I'll make the decision. Since you all think that the Tushan family is qualified to inherit the Salil Dukedom, then let the survivor inherit it."

"Your Majesty..." Someone heard this and immediately became anxious.

He wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Jinhua VIII.

"but!"

"If you want to inherit, you must meet some conditions!"
