Chapter 910
Needless to say, it was Lei Xiao who came.
I saw that Lei Xiao was wearing a simple black leather jacket with a red sweater knitted by Ariel inside. He looked extremely capable, completely different from the gorgeous costumes of the noble city lords in the northern border.
Beside Lei Xiao was Ariel in a milky white dress and a crown on her head.
Compared with the aristocratic ladies with heavy makeup around her, Ariel's long hair was neatly tied up, her dress was simple and elegant, and she only painted a touch of eye shadow on her star eyes, making her look extraordinary and refined.
If Caroline is a passionate red rose, then Ariel is like a pure white tulip that is noble yet reveals freshness and elegance, its temperament is by no means inferior to the former.
Behind Lei Xiao were the main subordinates such as Polygonum cuspidatum, Jiangli, and Hong Ye. They were all dressed in simple uniforms and did not show much murderous intent.
I saw Lei Xiao's provocative words in the resplendent banquet hall.
Whether it was Zierwini, Chester or other northern city lords, they couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and then cast their indignant eyes over.
Their northern city lord is an important force in the Cold Flame Kingdom. He once fought bloody battles with His Majesty the Iron Wrist King, and only then did he take back this vast frozen land from the Pars Empire.
On this snowy land, countless blood of their fathers and siblings, as well as the corpses of countless enemies, are left behind. This is the proof of the snowfield lion, and how can others call it a cowardly snowfield? Elk?
However, when the angry northern city lords saw Ariel wearing the crown, they reacted one after another, and all looked at Lei Xiao who spoke surprisingly.
The one who can stand proudly beside His Royal Highness Ariel is naturally the princess Ke Qing who defeated the fallen nobles one after another.
From the initial offensive and defensive battle of the mountain fortress with the Holy Night Army to the just-concluded battle of Wangxing Corridor, this princess Ke Qing from another world not only won many times with less, but also created one after another unbelievable The miracle of war, and there are several powerful fifth-order powerhouses who are loyal to him.
In this way, even those fallen nobles who were once invincible, and your Excellency Ke Qing, who was frightened by the news, have enough capital to say the arrogant words just now.
Thinking of this in their hearts, Cilvini, Chester and other northern city lords simply stopped entangled.
Instead, they hurriedly came to Ariel together, knelt down on one knee and said sincerely: "Your Majesty, see Your Highness Ariel!"
If it was placed at the beginning, most of these northern city lords might not have made such a big gift to Ariel from the bottom of their hearts.
After all, Ariel at that time was just a down and out princess who couldn't even stay with the king, and she might even lose her life at any time.
And now, with the help of Princess Keqing.
This fifth princess of Leng Yan is as strong as a cloud under her command, occupying more than 50 cities in the Kingdom of Leng Yan one after another. She is already the second largest force of Leng Yan besides the fourth prince, who dares to underestimate it any more? milliseconds?
What's more, His Royal Highness Ariel has indeed sent a large amount of food to the northern border in the past few days, which has really solved the urgent needs of the cities. Such kindness is unforgettable.
Just as the city lords fell to their knees on the ground.
The other noble ladies and noble ladies attending the meeting also raised their skirts and bowed their knees in unison, or looked at Ariel with reverence, or looked at Lei Xiao with excitement.
You know, the young couple in front of them are the most famous young people in Lengyan Kingdom today!He is a legend creator enough to be recorded in the annals of history!
The former is the noble and strong Princess Lengyan, and the latter is the mysterious and wise guest from another world. What could be more exciting and honored than seeing these two hot and powerful figures?
All of a sudden, all kinds of fiery and excited eyes were projected on Lei Xiao and Ariel one after another, making the atmosphere of the whole venue extremely warm.
Feeling the rising atmosphere in the banquet hall, the noble city lords who knelt on the ground at the beginning were all extremely calm, and their expressions did not show much turmoil.
Although the names of His Royal Highness Ariel and that guest from another world have already resounded throughout the entire human kingdom, that's all.
The life-and-death opponents they will face next are the three great aristocratic families, each of which is comparable to the royal family.
Just like what Cilvini said just now, some people might not be able to survive this winter due to lack of food.
But if you join His Royal Highness Ariel's camp, you will fight against the three big families who support the fourth prince.
Once the battle situation takes a turn for the worse, the three giants who must take revenge will never let go of the northern cities, and they will destroy the cities and be replaced by them.
Therefore, in the face of respect and survival, it is self-evident which one to choose.
After all, the power of the three great aristocratic and powerful families is overwhelming, with millions of armored soldiers waiting for work, and in the hands of His Royal Highness Ariel and the foreign guest, there are only [-] exhausted and usable soldiers.
"Everyone, please stand up. You don't need to perform such a big gift. I am very happy to see so many mainstays of my Lengyan Kingdom gathered here."
Ariel's fair face was full of grace, she smiled and nodded to the 20 neutral city lords present.
"Thank you, Your Highness Ariel!"
Hearing Ariel's words, everyone stood up one after another, and immediately looked at Lei Xiao with indignation, obviously still worried about the latter's rude words just now.
"His Excellency Ke Qing, who assists His Royal Highness Ariel, really looks extraordinary."
After an introduction from Caroline, Chester, who is the representative of the city lord, took a step forward, first exchanged a few words with Lei Xiao, then frowned and said: "I don't know what your Excellency said just now. What is the intention?"
"To be honest, Your Excellency the Marquis, it is exactly what it means literally, but this is just a little bit of my subjective opinion. If there is any offense, please bear with me."
While nodding, Lei Xiao signaled his subordinates to join the banquet at will, while taking the red wine glass respectfully handed over by a young maid, and responded with a smile.
Hearing what Lei Xiao said was so calm, Chester and the other city lords looked at each other.
While looking at each other, although the northern city lords did not show displeasure, they obviously did not intend to skip this topic.
After exchanging glances, Chester frowned, and continued to ask: "May I ask Your Excellency, why do you compare us and other northern nobles to cowardly snowfield elk that flee after hearing the news?"
After Chester finished speaking, the other city lords, including Zilvini, also nodded.
Although the reputation of this young guest from another world is in full swing, these northern city lords are not unknown people. If they don't tell the reason, this matter will naturally not be taken lightly.
"As far as I know, all of you here, or your parents and brothers, used to be Paoze who fought side by side with the King of Steel Wrists, and made great contributions to conquering the northern border. In order to defend dignity and glory, even sacrifice everything No hesitation."
Looking at the unrelenting northern city lords, Lei Xiao still maintained a faint smile, and responded: "How powerful the Pars Empire is, but the nobles in the northern border still fought bloody battles without fear of powerful enemies. , with unparalleled belief and courage, completely drove the other party out, and the title of Xueyuan Lion is well-deserved."
"But now, before seeing the shadows of the three great noble families, everyone present has completely lost their will to fight, and concluded that Her Royal Highness Princess Ariel and I will surely lose. Isn't this the snowfield elk that fled in the face of the wind?"
Lei Xiao first took a sip of the sour and fruity red wine in the glass, and then the faint voice sounded again.
"Although Her Highness Ariel and I are not your allies, seeing the difficulties in the northern border, the benevolent His Royal Highness Ariel immediately extended a helping hand, aiding the most precious food during the war, and relieved everyone's worries. Urgent, such an unreserved friendship, I'm afraid even some allies can't do it?"
Lei Xiao's calm tone began to be mixed with a touch of bitterness, and he asked: "Under this situation, everyone is still hiding away, while talking sarcastic words, hurting the morale of me and His Highness Ariel, everyone! Do you think this is appropriate?"
Hearing Lei Xiao's words, all the city lords in the northern border were at a loss for words, and a small number of city lords who supported Lei Xiao and Ariel lowered their heads in shame.
However, it didn't take long for the northern city lords, headed by Chester, who pursued a neutral attitude, to recover.
I saw Chester stroking his thick beard lightly, and said calmly: "Your Excellency, the reason why you say that is just to encourage us to join the camp of Your Excellency and His Highness Ariel, right?"
"The bloody battle against the Pars Empire is to resist foreign enemies. We are obliged to do so, and there will never be another word on the bloody battlefield. However, fighting against the three noble families headed by the fourth prince is just a dispute within Leng Yan. , how can they be compared?"
Chester's voice became firmer, and he said heavily: "We still say the same thing, only loyal to His Majesty the King, so I hope Your Excellency will understand, and forgive me for not being able to join His Highness Ariel's camp."
"Your Excellency Chester is right. Only by remaining neutral can we be responsible for our fiefdom and people, so as not to get burned."
Zilvini sighed softly, her fair face full of helplessness.
"The nobles in the northern region are not cold-blooded people. If Her Royal Highness Ariel can win, it is naturally something we would like to see, but there are no absolutes. Once the anger of the three great noble families reaches this point, the only thing waiting for us is The city was destroyed."
After Zilvini finished speaking, most of the northern city lords also echoed, obviously still maintaining a neutral point of view without any wavering.
"So that's it. I think you all misunderstood the purpose of me and His Highness Ariel's visit today."
Facing this group of stubborn people, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows and said calmly: "His Royal Highness Ariel and I came here today to bring the Northern Territory under the rule. There is nothing wrong with that."
"In this way, we can fight the fourth prince without any worries, but please understand that we are not simply here to discuss with you."
"In other words, whether you agree or not will not affect our next process."
Lei Xiao's voice became deeper and deeper, and he said solemnly: "Offending the three giants will indeed arouse the anger of revenge. Could it be that if you offend me and His Royal Highness Ariel, you can be alone?"
As soon as Lei Xiao's voice fell, a faint majestic momentum rushed out from the bodies of Polygonum cuspidatum, Hongye and Jiangli not far away, and began to agitate wantonly in the banquet hall.
For ordinary noble ladies and ladies, this deliberately suppressed momentum is undoubtedly difficult to detect, but for these powerful northern city lords, it is like a heavy hammer, showing their faces Panic.
You know, these are three mighty town-level powerhouses. In such a limited space, they can bloody all the city lords on the spot in an instant!
"Your Excellency, are you, are you threatening us?"
Chester's face began to become extremely ugly, and he took a step back involuntarily with the other northern city lords.
"Your Excellency, Marquis, misunderstood, I am just helping you to recognize the reality."
Lei Xiao had a gentle face, gently shaking the goblet in his hand, as if he was talking with a friend he hadn't seen for a long time.
"After all, only the area controlled by His Royal Highness Ariel is bordering on us, and unless the three giants step over our corpses, it is impossible to intervene here."
Lei Xiao drank the remaining wine in the glass, put the glass on the table beside him, and said: "The news that the ten cities of the fallen aristocrats in the northern border have fallen one after another, everyone must have heard the news, right?"
"Please understand that our progress will not stop because of you."
Speaking of this point, Lei Xiao's scrutinizing eyes moved and projected on the faces of the city lords one by one, as if looking for the first target to attack.
Of course, this was just Lei Xiao's faking.
Unless it was absolutely necessary, Lei Xiao would not easily use force against these neutral northern cities.
Lei Xiao clearly understood that his only goal was to win the loyalty of these cities without bloodshed.
Then tie these cities to his chariot and deal with the fourth prince together.
If we attack these neutral cities, even if we finally pacify the northern border, our side and the strength of these neutral cities will both suffer losses, which will only make the fourth prince cheaper in the end.
After all, it is impossible for the other party to leave too much preparation time for themselves. In the short term, it is not in our interest to take it by force.
Before this, Lei Xiao had already expected that these neutral northern city lords would not bow down easily.
Therefore, a little deterrence naturally needs to be imposed on the other party.
Sensing Lei Xiao's piercing gaze, the northern city lords couldn't help but swallowed, and began to look at each other again.
After a while, Chester stood up again, frowned and said to Lei Xiao: "Your Excellency, you have already said that His Royal Highness Ariel has always been known for her kindness and openness, and has been deeply loved by cold flames." the love of the people."
"Could it be that Her Royal Highness Ariel really has the heart to bring down the flames of war with her own hands, and burn all these innocent neutral cities like us?"
