THE FIGHT TO BE KING
CHAPTER 175: THE KING'S TRUST
Surely King Azeroth V could see his noble officials suspicious about him choosing the 10th prince as his next successor, but the king did not care at all because what attracted him the most now was why Myro suddenly supported the 10th prince.
"Baron Myro, you're such an important hero of Azeroth Kingdom that I won't punish you for what you said just now", the words of King Azeroth V who showed the aura of his king back to suppress all the people in the room "But what the official said just now were also not wrong, be it nobility, neither political nor military officials should take part in the royal family's problems".
"Myro pleads guilty and is ready to accept any punishment!", said Myro with shining eyes, he was not a fool. When King Azeroth V said his actions were wrong, Myro had to admit wrong so that he would not be punished.
As Myro thought, King Azeroth V nodded his head "Because you have confessed your mistake, I consider your disrespectful words just now not to have happened in the least. But I'm still a little curious, why did you choose my 10th son? Based on what I know, you're not my son's 10th friend. Moreover, there are many of my children who are far more famous than my 10th son, why did you choose him over so many of my other sons?".
Facing the king's question, Myro immediately replied without hesitation because he had been prepared for this question since the beginning of "Your Majesty, maybe my next words were a little harsh, maybe, but I hope everyone in this room especially your majesty is not angry at my words. Other princes may be more intelligent or strong, but I feel that the talent that a king needs most is neither smart nor strong, one must have these 1 things first before being fit to be king".
"Then, what 1 thing does a king need?" said King Azeroth V full of interest.
"Everything I say next is just my opinion, therefore no one should accept it or even reject it. What a king needs most is care for his people! A king who does not care about his people will only lead a kingdom to poverty and rebellion!", Myro said "But even a king who is not intelligent and strong, yet, as long as they cared for the inhabitants, the intelligent and powerful among the inhabitants would have given their support to the king".
"Why am I sure the 10th prince can understand the concern for its inhabitants? As we all know, the 10th prince did not have any great background from his mother, a noble wife. While other princes must have the support of their mother's background to get the throne, many people assume that the 10th prince who did not get any support from his mother's family who was a normal resident did not have the opportunity to become a king at all, the 10th prince who was not of any background was his greatest weakness".
"But to me the 10th prince who had no background from his mother's side was not a weakness, but it was his advantage. With his mother's family coming from a normal population, the 10th prince was much more understanding of the matter of concern for the prosperity of the population than any other prince. All of that is the reason I support the 10th prince, I am ready to accept any punishment if from my words there was something wrong for his majesty".
Everyone in the room again judged Myro carefully, especially the loyal supporters of the king who knew for a long time that the king supported the 10th prince as his successor, King Azeroth VI.
At first some of them just thought Myro was supporting the 10th prince because he knew the king's plan, Myro tried to gain the support of the king by disguising himself as a supporter of the 10th prince.
But after hearing Myro's reasoning just now, many of them were convinced. Anyway Myro really explained the reason for supporting the 10th prince, not the origin of voting.
Of all the people, only the prime minister still suspected the reason Myro supported the 10th prince.
Although it was difficult to make excuses like Myro said just now unless someone did support the 10th prince from long ago, it was not that it was impossible to make them without having to support the 10th prince.
"Even so, I can't give you the gift you said. The 10th Prince is good as you say, but he doesn't have enough credit to be crown prince yet, which makes me unable to give you the gift you said".
"No matter what noble, Myro had already prepared from the beginning regarding the gift that Myro said would be rejected" Myro said smiling silently.
Based on the laughter of King Azeroth V just now, Myro knew his task was successful. Now he did not know if King Azeroth V trusted Myro completely and did not suspect any more Myro would stab the Azeroth Kingdom in the future, but one thing is certain that King Azeroth V's trust in him must have greatly increased which made Myro happy.
King Azeroth V waved his hand "Although I cannot give you the gift you need the most, I can still give you another gift. Everyone, listen to my decision for the 3 heroes who have come all the way from the Northern Province and the Cavalry Province".
"We listen to the noble decision!", said everyone who immediately knelt down.
King Azeroth V wasted no time, saying "General Herfu will be given 50,000 gold coins and increase his army to 150,000 to guard the border".
"The general is grateful for the noble kindness!", said Herfu happily, he was now the border general who made Herfu know he could not rise in rank again unless something big happened like the general in the capital died so the border general needed to replace him. Therefore, the reward of adding the number of troops was very valuable to him.
"Loir, son of Grand Duke Rayde, I gave you the title of Baron! As for the city you should manage, then let your father decide" said King Azeroth V.
"Thank you, your majesty!", cried Loir.
Finally the gift that will be given to Myro by the king will be started, Myro who waited from earlier felt a little worried.
If his plan had just worked and he had gained some of King Azeroth V's trust, he would have gotten a lot of good gifts.
But if he failed, then get the increase in the title of nobility though still not necessarily for Myro.
