Lord: Taken away from inheritance at the beginning.
Chapter 318 The King’s Disposition
There is a certain degree of sophistry in Luo Ning's rhetoric, and there is nothing that can be done about it.
After all, he was alone and weak in the huge Golden Feather Palace, and opposite him was a child of a top noble family in the kingdom. If he didn't pull the tiger's skin and raise the flag, he might suffer a loss in this matter.
Fortunately, he knew that His Majesty the King wanted to facilitate his marriage with Blanche. In this case, the other party would be more or less biased towards him.
However, King Bruno's words made the Alduin Hall fall silent.
Justice Minister Texas was even more stunned. His mind was running rapidly, and he kept guessing about His Majesty the King's intentions.
At the same time, he was also rapidly searching for legal provisions in his mind, and finally said hesitantly: "Your Majesty, if this...if it does have such serious consequences and endangers national security as Luo Ning said, the maximum sentence is...hanging. "
Hanging?
Facundo, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly widened his eyes, and then collapsed to the ground like a deflated ball. Among them, he is the only one who does not have the blood of the Alduin family in his body. Will he bear all the blame in the end?
"Mr. Texas, did you make a mistake?"
Cross's face also changed, but he could still remain calm, "Just because of one sentence and Ronin's random analysis, you are going to sentence us to hanging?"
"Yes, you are the Minister of Justice, so you can't talk nonsense!"
Gregor's siblings from Firensburg and Sally from Moonlight Valley also protested.
Although the charges will not be confirmed without trial, that is just a general situation.
At this moment, they were facing the king, the minister of justice of the kingdom. If these two men are initially convicted, this will greatly affect the subsequent trial process and outcome.
"No, no, no!"
Texas waved his hands quickly, interrupting everyone's protest.
"You have misunderstood. I did not say that you will be sentenced to death by hanging. I only said that if your remarks really endanger the security of the kingdom and cause serious consequences, you may be sentenced to death by hanging."
At this moment, Facundo reacted, as if grasping a life-saving straw, and immediately said: "But it has not caused any harmful consequences now, is it?"
"Yes."
Texas nodded, then looked at the king.
In his opinion, this was an ordinary fight. How could His Majesty push the matter in a serious direction?
Bruno laughed, which eased the tense atmosphere in the hall a lot.
"Don't be nervous, kids. I just want you to know that talking nonsense can sometimes bring extremely serious consequences. I won't kill you just because of this matter."
If he really did this, wouldn't his aunts, sisters, and brothers be allowed to go to the Golden Feather Palace to cause trouble for him?
He didn't want to have a free day in the future.
However, the smile on his face faded a bit.
"Facundo, do you realize your mistake?"
Facundo had been frightened just now, but now he knew that his life had been saved. He was so lucky to face such a question. How could he dare to quibble?
"Your Majesty, I know I was wrong!"
He quickly raised his hand to touch his chest and bowed his head in salute: "Seven gods above, I will never say such words again in the future."
"What about you?" Bruno looked at Cross and others.
Now that Facundo had confessed, they could not continue to be tough. They all lowered their heads and said something like admitting their mistake.
Bruno snickered, these twenty-year-old young people are easier to deal with, just give them a scare.
If it were their father or any elder who came here, they would probably still be in the middle of a heated argument.
"Although I won't sentence you harshly, you not only spread rumors about the fairness of my father Alduin IV's knighthood, but also slandered the merits of the Oshan family for Alduin for generations. You also deliberately smeared and spread rumors about Ronin. Regarding these I will still punish you for inappropriate words and deeds.”
Luo Ning's heart moved.
Bruno has calmly characterized what Cross and others said about him as deliberate smear and rumors.
He saw the expressions of Facundo, Cross and others, and they seemed to be concerned about the punishment they would receive, but they did not care about the characterization of the remarks related to Ronin.
Indeed, compared to discrediting Ronin, spreading rumors about Alduin IV is more important.
"Fine or imprisonment, you can choose either of the two." Bruno said.
Facundo breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and discussed quietly with Cross and others.
They will definitely not choose imprisonment. The current discussion is also to ensure that all parties will come up with something.
"Your Majesty, we are willing to pay the fine. However, I hope your Majesty will consider that we are first-time offenders and please not set the amount too high."
"Don't worry, I'm not like your business-loving Myron."
Bruno chuckled and revealed his plan.
"I am going to hold a tourney on Blanche's birthday in four days. All professional knights and magicians aged twenty-five and under who are present at the banquet can participate. In this tourney, the first champion will be rewarded 50,000 yuan. The second place will be awarded 20,000 gold coins, and the third place will be awarded 10,000 gold coins.”
A light flashed in Luo Ning's eyes.
Extraordinaries at the age of twenty-five, those with high talents are at most just silver or great magicians. With such strength, as long as Luo Ning performs normally, he will definitely win the championship.
Bruno's setting up such competition conditions and rewards was clearly a secret allocation of funds to him.
At this time, His Majesty the King said again: "For your sake, your three families will be responsible for providing the reward of 80,000 gold coins. I will not say it is a fine at that time, but it will be for Fernsburg, Moonlight Valley and Sharp." What do you think of Xiaodao’s enthusiastic sponsorship?”
Eighty thousand gold coins.
Facundo, Cross and others looked at each other.
Originally they thought they would be fined tens or hundreds of thousands of gold coins, but they didn't expect it would only be 80,000. When divided, the average family would be less than 30,000 gold coins.
They are completely able to accept such a fine amount.
"As you wish, Your Majesty!"
All five people agreed.
Bruno looked at Luo Ning again: "Do you have any other opinions on how to handle this matter?"
Everyone looked over in unison. Cross and others clearly remembered that Luo Ning had asked them for medical expenses and mental damage expenses, a total of 70,000 gold coins.
They were able to accept Bruno's punishment, but they were still very resistant to Ronin's demands.
Seeing His Majesty the King's smiling expression, Luo Ning would not continue to ask for compensation foolishly.
"Luo Ning would like to express sincere gratitude to His Majesty on behalf of himself and the Wushan family!"
Luo Ning saluted and said, "Your treatment is very fair. Luo Ning has no objections."
He didn't even think about asking for a verbal apology.
Sally cursed in a low voice: "You know what's going on!"
Others also snorted coldly, obviously still unconvinced by Luo Ning and the others.
Bruno nodded slightly. He had already done this. It would be unwise if Luo Ning continued to ask for the so-called medical expenses and reputational damage expenses.
"Okay, now that the dispute has been resolved, let's end this matter."
Bruno stood up from the throne: "It's getting late. I've asked the kitchen to prepare a dinner for everyone to attend together to celebrate your return to harmony!"
