Ambition of the King of Knights

That night, Arthur hugged his soft and fragrant newly-baked daughter and slept all night. It wasn't until the next day that the sun was shining and there was noise outside. ...

"Father...king, are you ready?" Mordred sat obediently by the side and guarded the King of Knights, and said, "Just now Gawain and the others came to look for you, but I think you rested so late last night, you just Didn't bother you."

"It's really my father's caring little padded jacket." Arthur smiled slightly, and under Xiao Mo's surprised gaze, he didn't blame her for delaying the business, but just said lightly, "I know you are for me, but next time it will be better." Business matters."

Anyway, the enemies are basically dead now, so there will be no major delays, so why blame Xiao Mo for this?

"By the way, didn't you tell me not to be so polite?" Arthur looked helplessly at the respectful Mordred, "Also, why are you wearing the helmet again?"

Mordred shook his head, and a happy voice could not be concealed from under the helmet.

"Father can admit that I'm fine. Xiao Mo is very happy. As for the identity announcement... it will damage your sageness."

"I don't care." Although the illegitimate child was not pleasant, Arthur didn't want to wrong Mordred.

"I care."

"Okay, okay, what a stubborn kid."

Arthur sighed. The child is too sensible to make people feel distressed. Although he looks fifteen or sixteen years old, the growth of the artificial human is very fast. I am afraid that Xiao Mo may not even be born for five years.

"Xiao Mo, no matter what, you are my legitimate son. This is my unchanging promise. You can take off your helmet at any time."

"Yes! Thank you, father!"

What an easy-to-satisfy kid.

Arthur sighed, but did not insist on letting Mordred be exposed. After all, his favorite heir is Morgan. If Xiao Mo appears at this time, it may add twists and turns. As for why Xiao Mo is not allowed to inherit the throne... Just kidding, the king is so How can a heavy responsibility be pushed onto a girl who has just been born for a few years? !

Besides, Morgan has always been eyeing the throne. If Xiao Mo is allowed to take the throne, the ambitious sister Wang will definitely not obey obediently. Then maybe history will go back to history again. It is better to let Morgan inherit the throne directly. Anyway, the sister Wang, who is the direct blood relative of King Arthur, also has the legal right of inheritance.

It’s hard to say anything else, but Arthur is sure that Morgan is indeed a capable and capable royal family, so entrusting the country to her is not unacceptable, and she loves the country just like him, that’s enough .

Before he died, he would tell the Knights of the Round Table to obey Morgan's orders, so there would be no problems. As for Xiao Mo, if he could, he hoped that she could be an ordinary girl and spend her life happily.

"Well, it's really rare to meet, and everyone has quite a big difference."

When Arthur arrived at the hustle and bustle scene, he understood everyone's differences almost at a glance. After all, those captured Saxons were tied up and kneeled in front of them, and the knights were almost gone. Divided into three factions.

The knights headed by Gawain advocated killing the enemy by eradicating the grass and roots, and they did not show any mercy to the enemy. The Celts and the Saxons were feuds, and there was no need to leave hidden dangers for the future kingdom.

The knights headed by Bedivere and Galahad felt that since Great Britain had won and the other side had surrendered, they should be regarded as their own, and there was no need to kill them all even if they did not treat everyone equally.

The other faction felt that both parties were reasonable. The knights, including Lancelot, felt that this decision was beyond their discretion and should be left to the king. They absolutely obeyed the king's orders.

Scanning around, he found that although everyone was a little excited, they did not go online. Arthur nodded in satisfaction. It is normal to have differences in ideas. As long as they are not fighting for the sake of fighting, then everything is easy to talk about, and what the two sides said is also true. It is indeed all reasonable, and it is all for the sake of this country.

"king……"

"king!"

"Wang, what do you think these people should do?"

"Come on, Gao Wen, do you want to attack the unarmed guy?"

"Hmph, there's no need to use such clumsy provocateurs—Bedivere, I don't mind giving them weapons for a fair duel at all."

"But don't forget, we have accepted the surrender of the scattered Saxons, so we shouldn't go back on our word..."

"Galahad, do I need to remind you that the king just ordered us to clean up the battlefield and didn't mention accepting surrender. Besides, do you think they really surrendered? Instead of leaving the country with the hidden danger of future rebellion, it is better to solve it now Please think about it carefully, king.”

Gawain's words made some knights start to waver, while Bedivere and Galahad stopped it entirely because they couldn't bear to see the massacre. Also hesitated.

Xiaobei and Xiaojia are still a little immature. In fact, from a rational point of view, Gao Wen's handling method is the most correct, or the safest and does not harm his own interests, but...not to mention whether the King of Knights will do this To kill so many prisoners directly and cruelly, even he himself would not be able to do so.

After coming to this era, countless lives have been buried in his hands, and his hands have already been stained with blood. The only thing he can make himself firm in his faith is the knight's code. He shows no mercy to the enemy, but he will treat the weak and ordinary people Tolerate them with a compassionate heart.

"Gao Wen, what you said is very reasonable." Arthur first affirmed his deputy's words, and then added under Gao Wen's joyful and dejected eyes, "But you ignored people's future."

"Wang, what do you mean..."

Gao Wen frowned in disapproval. In his opinion, the king is good, but sometimes he is too kind. At this moment, he is just a knight who is king and considers the country. His face has long since disappeared. The romantic feeling of a lover is replaced by a decisive spirit.

"Yes, maybe they will be unstable factors in the future, but..."

Arthur smiled slightly, walked in front of all the Saxons, and said to the Saxon generals who were kneeling at the front and had met on the battlefield: "I'll give you a chance, if you refuse to surrender, you will pull up Challenge any knight present with your weapon! If you are willing to surrender, you will be citizens of Great Britain. After serving, I will treat you equally, in the name of the King of Knights!"

One after another, some people knelt down to express their submission, and some people took up their swords again. Many generals even set their sights on Arthur and demanded a duel. Naturally, he would not show mercy to such people. Send them directly to the Seat of Heroes for a reunion.

"Then, the rest presumably surrendered without objection."

Arthur glanced around, and found that only a dozen people died in the screening just now, and the remaining thousand people were willing to surrender, and nodded in satisfaction. It seems that his sageness played a big role, not to mention that Saxon has already After a crushing defeat, most are still willing to surrender.

"Next you will enter the three-year service period, during which you will be provided with food and housing, but you will have to build roads, houses, work, etc. for us for the previous defeat, but after three years, you will be the same as all citizens of Great Britain. Just basic obligations."

"As for what choices you will make in the future..." Arthur looked at Gawain who disapproved but did not stop him, and knowing what was going on in his heart, he couldn't help laughing, "What if they choose to rise up again in three years' time? , that can only show that what I did was not fair enough, my policy was wrong, they are guilty, and I am also at fault."

"Gao Wen, Saxon has perished. If I really managed to make them live and work in peace and contentment, and treat them equally, why would they have any reason to betray? If so, we must reflect on ourselves problem."

These words made Gao Wen speechless, and he couldn't help but be convinced. Originally, he didn't stick to his position because of the king's determination and the protection of the king's majesty, but now he was convinced.

"Then, if there is no objection, let Lancelot take charge of these captives."

Arthur thought about it, and felt that it would be better for Xiaobei and Xiaojia to simply maintain a pure heart. They are not suitable for politics and government affairs, so they simply threw the burden on the more mature knight flower.

"Wait, Wang, there is one more thing, we found another rich country further west in Saxon, which is..."

"Leave this to Kay. It's absolutely fine for him to be in charge of business transactions." Arthur said pointedly, "The reason why we perished the Saxons was not to kill and conquer, but because they were ambitious to invade us. What is the difference between us and greedy dogs if we do the same to other countries out of greed?"

"I think you are right." Gao Wen nodded, hesitated, and said, "Then the city of Saxon..."

"Naturally, we don't need to extravagantly ask for what doesn't belong to us, but why should we push it away? Gao Wen, I'll leave it to you."

"Yes, it will live up to your expectations."

Gao Wen was satisfied. Although the king was righteous but not pedantic, that was fine. He was afraid that the king would not be able to think about it alone, and he didn't even want the cities they brought down.

Arthur said that this is impossible, and even he knows that when the country develops to a certain level, only continuous external expansion can maintain the internal stability of the dynasty, so what he said can only be applied in the past hundred years. ...Let future generations worry about it.

He has found ways to develop commerce, sailing, technological development of agricultural planting, animal husbandry, etc. If he is optimistic, it is not impossible to last 400 years like the Han Dynasty. As for the future, it really depends on the good fortune of future generations. ——In order to continue the spirit of chivalry, he deliberately asked people to carve the code of chivalry on marble and place it at the entrance of the palace to warn future generations.

In fact, in the final analysis, Arthur still feels that he is essentially a scumbag. Although he loves Great Britain very much, he loves this kingdom as his own child and raises him, but he is also worried that his child's wings will harden in the future. Obedient, ambitious and took over his hometown... Ah, the empire on which the sun never sets in the future!

However, he couldn't explain why he was so fond of that distant ancient eastern country, and it was impossible for him to leave behind the ancestral motto not to invade his own country, so he simply took 'not using any ugly excuses to invade other countries' as the ancestral motto.

Perhaps, after thousands of years, the first Nobel Prize should be awarded to him...

The author has something to say: Little Theater:

Wang: It's a pity that the Nobel Prize cannot be awarded to deceased persons in principle, otherwise the Peace Prize would definitely be mine.

Posterity: Tsk tsk, our ancestors were so wise, they actually taught us to stand firm in righteousness, and just not to take the initiative to invade!When others hit our country, they can justifiably fight back and destroy the country. Give your ancestors a thumbs up!
