Chapter 21 Cut the grass without eradicating the roots, and the spring breeze will regenerate (for collection, for flowers)

The King’s Palace of King Carlos, Keynes sits and dines in the side hall.

The chefs who are in charge of the royal family’s food are all skilled chefs, and the ones who deliver the meals are also beautiful maids out of a hundred.

At this moment, Cavendish walked in from outside, and two people followed behind him.

One was an aristocrat he had met before, and the other was an old man.

“Your Majesty, he is the one you are looking for.”

The noble said respectfully.

Keynes glanced at the old man, feeling a little familiar.

“Randall Quinn?”

Keynes said tentatively.

“Yes, it’s me, Your Highness Keynes.”

The old man burst into tears.

“I always believed that His Royal Highness Keynes would come back, as expected, as expected.”

The old man was very excited and his body was shaking.

Randall Quinn is the head of the Randall family.

Ten years ago, the Randall family was also a noble of the Caro Empire Kingdom, and was very loyal to the Caro Emperor VI King Kells.

Randall Quinn is also the Prime Minister of the Carlo Empire, responsible for handling national government affairs and foreign exchanges.

Although there is no military power, but the status is very high.

“Unexpectedly, you are still alive.”

Keynes was a little skeptical.

Ten years ago his father, John Kells, was too ill to manage state affairs.

Randall Quinn assists Keynes in all government affairs of the country.

The Randall family is also Isshin who wants to help him succeed to the throne.

It’s a pity that a palace coup happened later…

“Sorry, Your Highness Keynes, on that day ten years ago, I was unable to rescue His Highness.”

Randall knelt in front of Keynes and said remorsefully, “If I could have rescued His Highness, maybe it wouldn’t have happened.”

“Get up, it’s not your fault.”

Keynes said calmly: “Lord bought Paladin, took control of the guards of the entire palace, and attracted the four nobles.”

“Even the Randall family can’t fight them.”

“And then? What happened to the Randall family?”

Keynes pressed.

“The Randall family no longer exists.”

Randall Quinn shook his head and said, “Ten years ago, after Rhodes assassinated His Majesty the King, he succeeded to the throne with the support of four families.”

“The Randall family and several other nobles who are loyal to His Majesty the King have joined together to form an uprising army and want to bring Rodella to the throne.”

“But we were too weak. In the end, the insurgent army was defeated, the people of the major families were all killed and wounded, and I was captured alive by Rhodes.”

“In order to humiliate my dignity and make me submissive, Rhodes imprisoned me in a cell and tortured me until today.”

“I see.”

This kind of behavior of Rhodes cutting grass and not eradicating the roots often occurs in the world of One Piece.

In the original, Crocodile captured Luffy but didn’t kill him, eventually leading to his defeat and loss of the Shichibukai name.

Kaido maimed Luffy, and only imprisoned him without killing him, which eventually led to the outbreak of the Onishima War.

These people don’t seem to understand the truth of cutting grass without eradicating its roots and regenerating in the spring breeze.

In order to subdue useful subordinates, sometimes it is okay to be merciful.

But there are always those hard-boned people in the world who are unwilling to surrender even if they die.

Such people are very characteristic and should be seen at a glance.

For this kind of person, Keynes’s usual practice is to cut the weeds.

Knowing that he couldn’t surrender, why did he keep to cause trouble for himself, wouldn’t it be easier to kill him with one knife?

Raising tigers is a problem, and one day it will eat back at them.

Keynes looked at Randall Quinn and said calmly: “Randall, from today onwards, you will take over as the Prime Minister of the Carlo Empire and be responsible for the daily affairs of the kingdom.”

“Just like ten years ago, you should be able to do it, right?”

Randall Quin was very excited, “Yes, His Royal Highness Keynes, no, His Majesty the King.”

“Old man can do it. It’s true that he insisted on it for ten years, but it’s only ten years.”

“It’s great to be alive, great.”

Randall Quinn burst into tears.

Having Randall Quinn help Keynes with the day-to-day affairs of the country also saves Keynes a bit of energy.

In Keynes’ view, strength is the most important thing, and he doesn’t want to spend a lot of time dealing with trivial matters of the country.

In the world of One Piece, strength is everything.

As long as the king is strong enough, the country will naturally prosper and the people’s life will be prosperous.

If the king is weak and weak, no matter how talented he is in governing the country, no matter how virtuous he is, no matter how virtuous he is, he will not be able to fully control the fate of the country.

That’s the case with Dressrosa’s Liku family.

King Riku is a rare king in the One Piece world who loves his people like a son, but he was too weak, so he was manipulated by Doflamingo and lost his throne.

Dressrosa has also been reduced to a country of pirates, and all citizens have suffered and lived in darkness.

…………

Time passed, and it was already six days later.

Today is the coronation day of John Keynes.

The Carlo Empire was decorated with lanterns and the whole people celebrated.

Four huge video screens were suspended above the palace, just as they were seven days ago.

It’s just that the image from seven days ago was a public execution, but today it’s different.

All citizens of the Carlo Empire can watch the coronation ceremony of John Keynes through the images of the sky.

I saw John · Keynes wearing a crown, wearing a king’s robes, standing above the palace.

“I, John Keynes, officially succeed to the throne of the Caro Emperor, the VII King of the Caro Empire!”

That’s right, it’s still the seventh.

After Keynes became king, John Lord’s royal status was abolished, erasing all information about him.

From the historical level of the Karo Empire, his existence was erased, and the ten years of his rule were not recognized as legitimate rule.

That being the case, Rhode’s identity as King Carlo Di VII naturally disappeared.
