Lord: Taken away from inheritance at the beginning

Chapter 317 The King's Disposal

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.

Minister of Justice 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 quickly 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 maintain his composure, "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 implemented until there is a 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, he immediately said: "But it didn't cause any harmful consequences now, did 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 chuckled to himself, 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 set such conditions and rewards for the competition, which was clearly a secret allocation to him.

At this time, His Majesty the King said again: "For your face, your three families will be responsible for the reward of 80,000 gold coins. At that time, I will not call it a fine, but the enthusiastic sponsorship of Ferensburg, Moonlight Valley and Screaming Island. What do you think?"

80,000 gold coins.

Facundo, Cross and others looked at each other.

Originally, they thought that they would be fined tens or hundreds of thousands of gold coins, but they didn't expect that it would only be 80,000. After sharing, the average amount per family is less than 30,000 gold coins.

Such a fine amount is completely acceptable to them.

"As you wish, Your Majesty!"

All five agreed.

Bruno looked at Ronin again: "Do you have any other opinions on the handling of this matter?"

Everyone looked over at the same time. Cross and others clearly remembered that Ronin had asked them for a total of 70,000 gold coins for medical treatment and mental damages.

They could accept Bruno's punishment, but they were still very resistant to Ronin's request.

Seeing the King's smiling face, Roning would not be stupid enough to continue asking for compensation.

"Roning would like to express his sincere gratitude to His Majesty on behalf of himself and the Wushan family!"

Roning saluted and said, "Your handling is very fair, and Roning has no objection."

He did not even think about asking the other party to apologize verbally.

Sally cursed in a low voice: "You are sensible!"

Others also snorted coldly, obviously they were still unconvinced by Roning.

Bruno nodded slightly. He had already done this. If Roning continued to ask for the so-called medical expenses and reputation loss fees, it would be a bit unwise.

"Okay, since the dispute has been resolved, let's stop here."

Bruno stood up from the throne: "It's getting late. I have asked the kitchen to prepare a dinner. Everyone will come together to celebrate your return to harmony with each other!" (End of this chapter)
