Everyone Says I'm the Demon King [Unlimited]

The news of the king's death spread like a thunderbolt throughout the court and inside and outside the royal city.

The doctor covered the king with a gray face and swollen and stiff body with a white cloth, and temporarily parked his body on a bed in the king's bedroom.

Whether it is true or false, at this moment members of the royal family, cabinet officials, missions from neighboring countries, and all those who are entitled to have the opportunity to stand in the bedroom are all sad.

Princess Mary, who was supposed to be closer to the king, did not rush to the king's bed as usual. Instead, Princess Catherine, who had been neglected all the year round, supported the bed and wept.

After the time of silence passed, Princess Catherine quickly stood up.

Her beautiful face was still stained with tears, but the original strong sorrow had dissipated a lot, and the calmness that should belong to the first heir to the royal family had surfaced.

Princess Catherine said: "My father passed away unfortunately, and I am very sad. But what should be done must be done, not to mention that the country is on the eve of war, and everything should be simplified as soon as possible."

"Tomorrow I will preside over my father's funeral."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the people present all changed slightly.

Although Princess Catherine's status as the first heir to the throne is undisputed from the legal code, this is only on the surface, and many people secretly don't think so.

And the person who has always held the funeral for the previous king, without exception, should be the next king according to the provisions of the code.Princess Catherine took the initiative to announce this, which means that the other party is ready to be the next king.

After that funeral, it is very likely that the coronation of Queen Catherine will follow.

This is something that some people don't want to see.

The queen was the first to stand up to object: "Catherine, you are young and inexperienced, so you shouldn't worry about such a grand matter. Well, although it is a bit unreasonable, as a queen, it is not a bad thing for me to preside over the funeral for my husband." What a nonsense thing."

The head of the border garrison immediately retorted: "What is the queen talking about? What is unreasonable? This is completely unreasonable! If Princess Catherine can't preside over the funeral because of such a trivial matter as inexperienced, then you, the queen, will be even more unreasonable." You should not preside over the funeral! After all, the queen is only the queen, not the heir to the royal family!"

The queen's face turned blue and white after being taught a lesson, but she had no position to refute.

In her view, Catherine, a princess whose mother is not around, has no support from her mother's family, and her father does not love her, and who has the title of first in line heir, is just a puppet who can be slaughtered and controlled by her.

Now that the king passed away, she was sitting on the queen's title, backed by her mother's family, and her daughter had a marriage contract with a cabinet minister. It only took a few words and a few operations to push her daughter Mary to the throne.

However, who would have thought that Catherine, who was supposed to be isolated and helpless, would have someone to help her speak after only a few hours of recuperation due to the poisoning!

The other party is not a character that can be ignored, or even someone who needs to be taken seriously!

The head of the border garrison has worked in the border army for many years and has a high prestige among the soldiers on the border.If the other party sincerely supports Catherine's coming to power, then the queen needs to consider the possibility of the border army threatening the royal city.

The queen's momentary speechlessness did not suppress the eagerness of some people present, but aroused their arrogance even more.

Seeing her mother's ugly face, Princess Mary immediately stood up and said, "My father's body is still here, but you are already thinking about the heir to the royal family! Is this a reasonable thing?! I What's wrong with my mother wanting to hold my father's funeral herself?!"

This is really a typical example of "others reason with her, and she talks about feelings with others", a nonsense example.

Lu Fengdeng stood beside the bed without saying a word, but kept a dignified posture and looked at the two people who were facing each other.His expression was calm, making it impossible for the enemy to guess his true thoughts.

As Princess Catherine, Lu Fengdeng didn't need to argue in person at this time, because he had someone to fight for him.

Besides, his teammate seems to be able to debate, and he probably doesn't need his off-court assistance.

Sure enough, the head of the border garrison did not flinch, and continued: "Then what's wrong with Princess Catherine wanting to personally hold a funeral for her father?"

"Princess Catherine is the king's daughter, and it is reasonable to hold a funeral for her father. She is also the first heir to the kingdom, so it is reasonable to hold a funeral for the deceased king. It is more reasonable for Princess Catherine to hold a funeral than the queen."

The head of the border garrison deliberately emphasized the pronunciation of the last word "Li", and said: "And in terms of experience, the queen has never presided over a funeral. The two are similar, so there is no need to use this as an argument."

When Princess Mary heard this, she was furious and couldn't find a reason to refute.

In the end, she said sarcastically: "You guys keep emphasizing the heir to the royal family at this time, is it possible that you still plan to perform a scene where the funeral will be held in the morning and the coronation ceremony will be held in the afternoon?! My father's body is still here, you just Do you know that thinking about inheriting the kingdom deserves my father's funeral?!"

This time, without waiting for the head of the border garrison to speak, a cabinet veteran on the side said calmly: "Of course. The country must ensure that everything is in order before it can continue. The sudden death of the king will impact this, let alone now. It's time to fight."

"Holding the funeral while keeping the country's affairs in mind is what an excellent heir to the kingdom should do. Inheriting the king's legacy and managing the country well is the most important thing today."

"At this moment, I don't want to think about the coronation ceremony or the heir to the kingdom. Then who will lead the country? Who will ensure that all affairs of the country are carried out in an orderly manner? Please don't talk nonsense, Princess Mary."

The veteran of the cabinet is quite old, because of his seniority and power in the local city of the traffic fortress, he is quite respected in the cabinet and the royal city.

He had always had a neutral attitude towards this matter before, and he didn't stick to the order of the royal family's heirs, and he expected the most capable heirs of the royal family to prevail.

But now it seems that Princess Mary, who has all kinds of backers, is really not a good choice. She has no advantages except being snarky, and she is far inferior to Princess Catherine who is calm, steady, strategic, and decisive.

Then he naturally wants to support Princess Catherine's ascension.

What's more, Princess Catherine is the first heir to the throne.

Princess Mary was even more dissatisfied when she heard the lesson of this majestic old man.But because of the severity of the other party, she could only clenched her lower lip angrily, and said, "Why is there no one?! I think Snow is..."

Snow standing beside him stood up in time.

With a smile on his face, he said in a friendly tone: "Okay, okay, everyone's quarrel now has deviated from Princess Catherine's original intention, hasn't it?"

Having said this, Snow turned his head to look at the young and beautiful princess standing aside, and said with a smile, "What did Princess Catherine say that you are going to oppose her so much? She is just out of a daughter's nostalgia for her father. It’s all about presiding over the funeral for your father, why are you talking about whether you have experience and whether you want to carry out the coronation ceremony?”

"It's just a funeral, you don't need to elaborate too much," Snow's gentle and melancholy eyes swept over everyone present, and finally stopped on Princess Catherine's face, "Princess Catherine's identity is indeed very suitable, she just wants to It's just a funeral for the king, we all agree."

He spoke lightly, as if he didn't regard this as a political event at all.

Although the head of the border garrison and the elders of the cabinet disagreed with his statement, the result was what they wanted, so they didn't say anything.

The Queen and Princess Mary also finally subsided.

Snow was Princess Mary's fiancé, and his words sounded like a promise to both of them.

Just holding a funeral does not mean that you will be crowned queen, and the ultimate queen will still be Princess Mary.

And Prince Derek, who was in the farthest corner, basically confirmed Snow's identity.

The opponent should be his teammate.

It's just that this teammate seems to like to speak in a weird way, so that sometimes it sounds indistinguishable from the enemy.

Prince Derek analyzed the other party's words in the past two days one by one, and finally decided that the young cabinet minister's guns were indeed foreign.

Faced with Snow's statement, Princess Catherine did not raise any objections.

After all the arguments in the king's bedroom stopped, the young and beautiful princess finally spoke and said, "Tomorrow morning, my father's funeral will be held in the square, and everyone is invited to attend at that time."

Everyone present nodded.

The goal was achieved, and Princess Catherine stopped looking at everyone, but turned her head and ordered the guards to put the king's body in the coffin, cover it with flowers, and prepare to carry it out for the funeral tomorrow.

Princess Mary looked at her former cowardly sister with some pride.

Even at such a moment, her elder sister would still not take the initiative to fight for herself, and would innocently wait for others to save her like in a fairy tale.

In the past, Catherine relied on the Lance knight to rescue her, but she didn't know that the Lance knight had been complaining to herself and flattering herself in private.Now the other party has to rely on other people to fight for power for her, but she can't say a word to fight for it, and can only be responsible for the beginning and the end.

Princess Mary wondered how long the head of the border garrison and the cabinet elder could tolerate such a Catherine?

One must know that Snow was willing to enter into a marriage contract with her because of her initiative and humor.

Princess Mary turned her head to look at Snow, but saw that the other party did not meet her eyes in a heartfelt way, but seemed to be thinking about something, and his eyes fell on Catherine.

Princess Mary lifted her skirt angrily and followed the queen out of the bedroom.

……

Today, everything is basically settled.

Prince Derek walked towards his room with a gloomy expression.

Today is the fifth day, and this day is coming to an end, but the situation in the court is still not developing in the direction he wants, nor is there an overwhelming situation, which makes Prince Derek feel a headache.

However, when he opened the door in a bad mood, he saw a person appearing in his room.

The young cabinet minister who seemed to have been waiting for a while was sitting on a chair in his room and just looked up at him.

Prince Derek immediately closed the door behind him silently and looked at each other.

Snow said with a smile: "There are only two days left, is Your Highness ready to be in debt of 20 points?"

Prince Derek's pupils shrank suddenly.

The opponent was indeed his teammate!

But he didn't show this surprise, but smiled lightly on his face: "If you are not in a hurry, then I have nothing to worry about."

Although he had just exchanged goods some time ago, and there were not many points left, he had installed magic attack weapons and built a framework for a new attack method. The bonus effect of 20 points for the new attack method was very limited.

Even if the debt is 20 points, it's just that the last two or three dungeons can't get the points, and they have to pay off the debt. The progress of the overall strength improvement will not be much slower than other high-level awakened ones.

The relationship between points and the strength of the Awakened is like a logarithmic function image in the first quadrant. The growth rate is from fast to slow. In the later stage, the improvement effect of 20 points is still very limited.

What's more, who hasn't failed a copy?

He didn't believe that the points in the hands of other advanced awakeners were more than enough!

And if the mid-level awakened person who has just been promoted in front of him is in debt of 20 points, the consequences will not be comparable to him.

"Hurry up, why don't I be in a hurry, I won't come to you if I'm not in a hurry," Snow said with a smile, "I do have an idea, I wonder if Prince Derek wants to hear it?"
