After Transmigrating to Become the Daughter of a Duke, I Just Want to Pursue a Career

"Father, the electromagnetic crossbow you see now is different from the one you saw before. There is a huge difference between them......"

Hearing half of Reinhardt's words, the old man didn't ask any further questions, but just looked at his son indifferently, as if he was listening to an insignificant matter.

After seeing his father's reaction, Reinhardt deliberately acted like a child who was neglected for showing off his toys. He sighed helplessly, but soon, the smile returned to his face.

"As for the difference between the two, the electromagnetic crossbow in my hand was produced by our imperial craftsmen."

This time, after listening to Reinhardt's explanation, the old man's face was always calm. At this moment, he was finally a little broken, but soon, he became calm again.

"Heh, I didn't expect you to really mess with it."

After taking a deep look at the electromagnetic crossbow in Reinhardt's hand, the old man restrained the coldness between his brows, and stopped pursuing the prey. Looking at his father who had calmed down, Reinhardt knew that this test was considered a pass. up.

However, just when Reinhardt felt a little relaxed, he heard the old man suddenly say,

"Leaving aside the matter of the prey, Reinhardt, I heard that the little girl from Aldan's family seemed to have rejected your marriage proposal in public at the coming-of-age ceremony? Is there such a thing?"

At this moment, the moment he heard the old man's words, a gloomy color flashed across Reinhardt's brow, but soon, he suppressed the inexplicable emotions in his heart, deliberately made a sad expression,

"Yes, father, Carter did reject me. It is because of this that I have been in a bad mood these days."

"Alas~~, the farthest distance in this world is not that she and I are in Byernord and the other is in Chris, but that I love her to the bone, but she hates me like a snake and a scorpion."

"However, I will not give up. I believe that as long as I persist to the end, Carter will eventually be moved by my sincerity."

Regarding his son's remarks, the old man couldn't help but raised his eyebrows, then snorted softly and said,

"Let's just give up, Reinhardt, you're hopeless!"

"Facts have proved that that woman is not something you can marry back home. With her current status, if she can reject you once, she can reject you countless times. You don't need to care about your reputation, but the glory of the empire cannot tolerate such a situation. trampled by people."

"After I go back, I will arrange a marriage for you. You should prepare well."

At this moment, when he heard his father's calm and unquestionable words, Reinhardt's eyes sank, but he did not directly refuse, but lowered his head and said softly,

"Father, I remember that my mother also rejected your marriage proposal, but you..."

"You want to compete with me~?" The next moment, before Reinhardt finished speaking, he heard a mocking voice from here,

"That's right, your mother did reject my marriage proposal in public, but so what?"

"I destroyed her kingdom with my own hands, killed her lover, and imprisoned all her family members. From then on, she can only be my wife!"

"She can only sing and dance for me. Every inch of her skin, every strand of hair, and even every look in her eyes will only belong to me!"

"But what about you?"

"I gave you many opportunities to 'pursue' the person you like, but you failed all of them, and all you got was shame!"

"In that case, what else can you say?"

At this moment, the series of questions from the old man made Reinhardt completely silent. He could have justified himself and told his father that in fact, at the coming-of-age ceremony not long ago, he was only a little bit successful in persecuting Carter. Linna gave in, but she didn't expect that the Duke of Aldan, who had been emptied of power in the information, would suddenly appear out of nowhere, which made him fail.

But in the end, Reinhardt didn't open his mouth to defend himself, because the philosophy of the imperial people has always been to judge heroes only by success or failure. The winner does not need any explanation, and only the stupid loser will find reasons for himself.

"Father, can you really not give me another chance?"

After being silent for a long time, Reinhardt asked in a low voice. At this time, he kept his posture very low, and there was even a trace of prayer in his tone.

As for his son's reaction, the old man unceremoniously refused,

"I've given you enough opportunities, it's you who can't grasp it!"

Having said that, the old man frowned when he saw Reinhardt, who was obviously depressed, and finally slowed down his tone.

"I think you should understand that the empire now needs a mistress, and more importantly, an heir who can protect the glory of the empire."

"I admit that the woman you fancy is very good, and she is fully qualified to be your wife. But the problem is that she doesn't like you at all, and you don't have enough ability to control her."

"If it is normal, I can give you some more time, but now, we have no time."

"A grand war is about to begin. My body is not strong enough to support me to control this war. I can only rely on you to stand up. And now you have no heirs under your command. If you encounter misfortune on the battlefield, the entire empire will be in trouble. Shock."

"So, Reinhardt, as the crown prince of the empire, you have never had the right to be willful!"

After all, the old man stopped looking at his son, turned around and walked out of the forest with his servants, while Reinhardt stood quietly at the same spot, silently watching his father's back gradually drifting away.

After a long time, Reinhardt suddenly raised his head and looked at the boundless sky above his head. The late autumn sunlight passed through a few dead branches and fell weakly on his hair. The golden hair revealed a dim brilliance, and then , a murmur sounded faintly here,

"Katerina, you forced me to do this......"

Chapter 169 165. Arriving in Gorold

There is an archipelago on the sea in the southwest of the mainland. The largest island is called Gorado. The main body of the island is shaped like a lily leaf. One island, but with a variety of natural environments.

In the center of the island is an extinct volcano named [Kakidor]. The mountain is the highest point on the island. Yes, at the highest point of the volcano, there is a huge lake, which flows down from the top of the mountain and eventually evolves into several rivers that run through the entire island.

There are four main channels of the river. If you look down from a high altitude, you will find that these four rivers seem to be like two long meandering lines. With Mount Cajidor as the center, the island is divided into four parts. The south of the dividing line is , is an endless virgin rainforest, with hills and swamps in the west and east, and only the northern area is a plain, where the capital of the Burros people - Coraldo City is located.

At this moment, on the largest pier connecting Gorado City, this place should have been a bustling place with boats coming and going, but it is currently an empty scene.

The berths on the pier were empty at this time, and there was no large ship in sight, only some small boats used for extradition, like a leaf floating on the sea, floating leisurely with the undulating waves.

The reason for the current scene is very simple. Today, the Queen Burros, who has always existed only in legends, is about to land in Goroldo and take over the throne!

Since the end of the war between Burros and Chris, the Burros people ushered in a new king. Regarding this matter, the nobles and civilians in Burros had very complicated attitudes at the beginning, but soon, this All the complicated moods turned into uneasiness.

Because the legendary Queen stayed in Chris for some reason, as if she had no intention of coming to Goroldo to take over the royal power.

A country cannot live without a king. No matter whether it is a noble or a commoner, they all need the asylum bestowed by the king. This is the basic consensus of the entire human society. It is a branch of mainland civilization, and it will inevitably be affected by mainstream values.

Facing the situation where the throne has been vacant, no matter what attitudes the people in Bulrose held towards the new Queen, they have now become urgent and anxious. What people want to see most now is the legendary Her Majesty the Queen hurried to Geraldo to take over the royal power.

It is precisely because of this that after hearing the news that Her Majesty the Queen is about to land in Goroldo, those forces in Burrose who originally had their own minds finally reached a consensus and chose to clear the port at all costs, and strive to come with the most grand gesture. Greet your new king, and then you will have the current situation.

"Look, here they come—!"

At this moment, when those people on the pier who were preparing to welcome the new king were resting in the shade in every possible way, an exclamation broke the harmonious atmosphere.After hearing the shouts, everyone almost instinctively turned their eyes to the distant sea, only to see a huge fleet appearing from the junction of the sea and the sky.

The fleet was advancing very fast, and it didn't take long for the fleet, which was originally just a small black dot, to become clear in people's sight.After a while, the fleet finally approached the pier. At this point, the entire fleet was completely displayed in people's field of vision.

As a country where all the people rely on the sea for food, the people in Burros are definitely familiar with ships, the most important means of transportation in daily life. Most people, even children, are basically familiar with the performance of ships in various countries.

But now, after seeing the three ships headed by the fleet, many people on the dock couldn't help exclaiming. The reason is very simple. People discovered that the hulls of the three ships were actually made of iron.

In the current era, the use of iron as a raw material to build a ship hull is undoubtedly a challenge to common sense.Although the Burros people have heard about the existence of steel warships in Chris, they still haven't been shocked by seeing them with their own eyes.

"God of the Sea bless you, it's obviously made of iron, why can it float on water?"

"Of course it's because of magic, otherwise what do you think? It's impossible for it to float by itself."

"But I heard people say that this big guy seems to have really floated by himself."

"Idiot, that's deliberate fake news, it's used to deceive people, don't be like a fool, believe what others say, think about it, how can the iron float? If this news is true, I'm willing to swallow it One kilogram of bird droppings!"

At this moment, facing the three steel warships rapidly approaching the pier, some people in the crowd whispered in disbelief.

At the same time, Andy, who was at the forefront of the crowd and was serving as the temporary manager of Gorado, stared motionlessly at the fleet that was about to enter the port, with a hint of complexity in his eyes.

After the steel battleship headed by the arrival arrived at the mooring port, Andy sighed softly as he watched the portable stairs slowly descending from the ship, and then waved to the servants around him. The sound rang out on the pier.

"Welcome to Your Majesty the Queen—!"

After a while, seeing a familiar figure appearing at the bow, Andy knelt down without hesitation, and gave the other party the highest courtesy, and following his movements, the greeting staff behind him, They all knelt down.

Immediately afterwards, amidst the shouts of the crowd one after another, a tea-haired girl with a crown on her head descended slowly along the stairs anchored to the bow of the ship, towards the crowd, and finally stopped in front of Andy.

"Get up~"

Accompanied by a soft moan like a breeze, a pair of exquisite women's leather boots suddenly appeared in Andy's lowered sight, and when Andy followed the instructions conveyed by the voice, he slowly raised his head At that moment, the legendary new Queen of Boulrose occupied his entire field of vision with an unavoidable gesture.

At this moment, looking at the girl in front of him whose posture and demeanor seemed to be more and more superior, Andy was slightly stunned, but soon, he restrained his emotions, and then said in a respectful tone,

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Coraldo is waiting for your arrival......"

"Stop, don't talk yet!" The next moment, just as Andy was about to greet Katerina in accordance with the reception etiquette, he heard the girl say in an impatient tone,

"Mr. Andy, you know my character. I remember that I have already written to say that no reception ceremony should be held, and the normal operation of the city must be maintained."

"So, what are you making a fuss about now?"

Facing Katerina's implicitly accusing question, Andy didn't show any extra emotion on his face, as if he had been prepared, he lowered his head slightly, and responded in a respectful tone,

"Returning to Your Majesty, your Majesty's previous explanations to the ministers have indeed been conveyed to the ministers, and they have also advised the ministers not to make a big show, but the ministers have all said that they admire your majesty's heroic demeanor, and hope to be in front of your majesty as soon as possible. See you."

"The intentions of the ministers are extremely firm, and I really can't stop them, so this..."

"Heh!" The next moment, before Andy finished speaking, Katerina sneered,

"Admiring my heroic appearance?"

"I heard that Burros people are 'straightforward' and 'not good at words', and I saw it today."

"It's really difficult for them to come up with a reason for such nonsense."

After all, Katerina ignored Andy, but looked directly at the former Burros ministers behind Andy, who were looking carefully at them. After taking a deep breath, the girl raised her head slightly, Looking around at the crowd with a disdainful attitude, a burst of high-pitched voice sounded here,

"My name is Katerina Aldan, the new queen of Burrose!"

"Now, in the name of the king, I would like to warn everyone present....... My army is about to land. For the sake of safety, everyone who has nothing to do with you should leave as soon as possible!"

At this moment, at the moment when Katerina's voice fell, the old officials of Burrose present showed shame and anger on their faces, as if the girl had just said something outrageous.

However, Katerina didn't care about the reaction of the people present, she just stared at the people coldly without saying a word, showing no signs of backing down. Shame on these old Boulross servants.

However, Katerina was not the one who took the initiative to provoke the trouble. Her humiliation was purely forced. The real challengers were actually the former Boulrose ministers present.

It may feel strange to say that, but it is the truth.

Even though the carefully prepared and grand welcome ceremony now reveals the respect and submission of the Burros people everywhere, it seems that there is no problem, but in fact, it should not exist at all!

If the person who landed this time was the former King of Burros, then there is no problem with this etiquette, but now, the person who came is Katerina, the new queen who defeated the old king of Burros, then this etiquette is very important. problem.

Why do you say that?Because Katerina's identity is not only the successor of Burros Kingdom, but also a powerful conqueror!

Excluding all unobjective factors, the reason why Katerina was crowned king was mainly because she defeated the former ruler of Burrose by absolute force. The way she obtained the kingship came from violent seizure, not legal inheritance.

Under such circumstances, everything established by the former King Burros needs to be redefined by the new king Katerina, and the old ministers of the former King Burros are also part of the girl who needs to be redefined.

To put it bluntly, Katerina has not yet recognized these people as nobles. She can admit it or not, but the choice is in her hands.

At this time, without Katerina's consent, these former officials of Boulros put on the etiquette of the courtiers to welcome the king. This is no different from a different kind of coercion. Or force teenage girls to admit their identities.
