Chapter 16 Palace Meeting (Part )
Hearing Frey's words, Harold was a little flattered. He quickly waved his hands in fear and said: "Your Majesty, you must not apologize to me for a trivial matter. This loses the majesty of the royal family."
After hearing Harold's answer, Frey stared into Harold's eyes and said seriously: "Mr. Harold, I hope you can remember that everyone in this world is created equal, and there is no so-called High and low, what is the so-called dignity of the royal family? If you make a mistake, you must correct it. If you are beaten, you must stand upright. What happened to the royal family? Even if the royal family makes a mistake, they still need to apologize. If the royal family commits a crime, they still need to be put in jail and judged. It is precisely because of people like you. Thoughts, only the civilians living at the bottom of this country and even this world live in such misery."
Frey continued: "Although we hold rights in our hands that are difficult for civilians to touch, they should be used in the right way. What is the meaning of the rights held by the nobles and royal families? It is for the stability of this country. In order to let the civilians at the bottom live a better life, instead of abusing the power in their hands to oppress and commit corruption."
"I hope that in my future reforms of this country, the subjects of the Kingdom of Ferelden will have the heart not to fear power. When they are oppressed by others, they will have the courage to stand in front of them and fight against them. Having an indomitable spirit when faced with natural disasters, and the determination to resist when others infringe upon one's territory, property, or even life."
"When they meet powerful people, they can pass by them calmly, smile and say hello, instead of kneeling on the ground to worship like they do now. They are afraid of this country, and they are afraid of this country. The nobles in the country are afraid of the army they should rely on."
"What is the army? The army is used to fight against aggression from outside. It is used to catch robbers and pirates who threaten the safety of people's lives and property. It is also a deterrent. They are the last resort for the people of this country. "
Frey, who said so many words in one breath, felt dry. He moistened his tongue with the saliva in his mouth and continued: "It is a pity that the nobles in this country and even the world have lost the true belonging to the nobles. Spirit, they indulge in banquets and hunting all day long, and are indifferent to the lives of the people in their territory. They only care about whether the people below have paid the heavy taxes on time."
“During the disaster years, when the fields were harvested and the people had no enough food to eat and no warmth to wear, this group of so-called nobles did not lend a helping hand to help them. They would rather the wheat piled up in the warehouses would go moldy and just go away. So infested by insects and eaten by rats, they were unwilling to open a warehouse to store grain. Even if they took out a little bit of grain to cook a pot of gruel, they didn't. They didn't forget to collect it even at this time. Tax, this is nobility.
"Believe me Harold, I will change everything in the coming days. I will not let these powerful nobles continue to act like this. I will abolish the nobles who are endangering the country." Such a cancerous existence, I will formulate a new set of laws and rules, and it won’t be too long before this day comes.”
Harold stared blankly at Frey, who was frothing at the mouth. He was shocked by Frey's words. If he regarded the words Frey said to him in the carriage last time as gibberish, this time Once Frey's words completely shocked his heart, and he suddenly felt that Frey in front of him was so strange, so noble and great.
He and Frey have been playing together since they were young. The relationship between the two was so close when they were young. This has not changed at all since he became an adult, but since he succeeded the deceased old king and became Ferelden After becoming the new king of the kingdom, he felt that Frey had changed, and a gap began to form between them. He would no longer have fun with him like before, and his body began to be filled with the rejection of being a royal. The indifference of a person thousands of miles away and the unique temperament of only considering gains and losses.
But the biggest change that really happened was on the day of the trial of the White Rhino Pirates, from the time Frey kicked him on the butt. Outsiders may not know it yet, but he and Frey have been together since childhood. A friend who grew up, apart from the old king, he can be said to be the one who understands his existence the best.
From that day on, Harold began to feel an unknown, perhaps called friendly, temperament from Frey. He found that Frey had changed from his previous indifference and began to become polite, no matter who he was. He treats high-ranking nobles or civilians in rags equally, without any distinction based on that person's identity, that person's clothing, or that person's appearance.
Harold discovered that Frey was slowly breaking the idea firmly engraved in his heart that the nobles one level above him had the supreme authority. He began to break his own understanding of the nobles and the royal family. He was a little scared. , he was also a little excited. He heard what Frey said about the reforms he would implement in the country in the coming days. Harold could vaguely feel that he could feel that Frey would change this country. , will even change the world. There is a thought in his heart that is constantly roaring, constantly reminding him that he must follow Frey's steps closely, so that he will become Frey's right-hand man and become this An indispensable presence in the country.
These thoughts flashed through Harold's mind like lightning. At this time, Frey had finished speaking and was holding a glass of water to moisten his dry throat.
Harold knelt down on one knee and saluted, then looked at Frey and said seriously: "Your Majesty, Harold will definitely keep your remarks in mind today, and I will follow you closely. The pace of reform, to dedicate my efforts to your Majesty and this great country."
Tris next to him was also touched by Frey's words. He also knelt on one knee and saluted and said: "Your Majesty, Tris will also follow your Majesty's steps. I will be your Majesty's sharpest warrior." Sharp sword, where your banner points is where my blade points."
Frey smiled happily, and he quickly stepped forward to help Harold and Tris up in turn.
He knew in his heart that if Harold was forced to express his position in the carriage last time, then this time he had completely won the loyalty of Harold and Tris. He smiled and said: "You two You will definitely leave a mark of your own in this country and even the world in the future. Now let us go to the meeting hall for a meeting. Let me meet the nobles in this country for a while to see what they have. His ugly face."
