Starting Today, I’ll Work as a City Lord

"Impossible, I'm telling the truth." Darlene curled her lips.

This scene made Catherine laugh secretly, but then she lay helplessly on the table and said weakly, "Dalena, how many days will it take to arrive in Xiyang City? My body is very useless."

"Probably another four or five days." Darlene sighed, and she couldn't stay still anymore.

The cabin was too damp, had a musty smell, and was very cold. She was afraid that if it continued like this, she would definitely get sick.

"I really hope that Xiyang City will be like what Uncle Solo said, so I will stay for a year."

Catherine clasped her hands together and said longingly, "It would be best if a knight on a white horse comes and presents me with a romantic marriage proposal."

"Don't be stupid, it's impossible." Darlene was stunned for a moment, narrowing her blue eyes, and said lightly, "Princess Lucy has a new work?"

"Huh? How do you know?" Catherine asked in shock.

"What about the title of the book?"

"White Horse Knight Marriage Proposal!"

"What a good name..."

Chapter 0262 Princess Lucy's worries.

Yingluo Wangcheng.

In the royal palace that monopolizes one-tenth of the entire city, violent quarrels are taking place at this moment.

"I think the eldest prince is the best candidate for the king. His handling of internal affairs has been praised by many nobles."

"Fart, the second prince is the best candidate. Last time he put down the rebellion in the north."

"That's clearly an innocent caravan. Last time you ran into the second prince, you wantonly found excuses to take revenge."

"You old guy? What? Want to practice with me?"

"..."

In the parliament hall of the palace, there was a quarrel at the right time. The Minister of the Interior who supported the eldest prince, and the grand knight who supported the second prince, both of them stared angrily, and their saliva splashed everywhere.

Both of them have the title of Grand Duke, one is in charge of government affairs and the other is in charge of military affairs, completely ignoring the sullen king on the throne.

"I think the fourth prince is also very good. Recently, he has wiped out the horse thieves running around the king's city." The city guard of Yingluo city said.

The city defense officer is a marquis, the highest supporter among the nobles that the four princes have won over.

"Hey! Are you kidding me? Kill a few horse thieves and think you've grown up?" the big knight said coldly.

"A bunch of mindless idiots. If you hadn't raised high taxes, there wouldn't be so many horse thieves." The Minister of the Interior accused with a map cannon.

"..."

"Cough cough cough..."

The King of England suddenly coughed violently, telling the noisy people below to shut up. They knew that the king was dissatisfied.

"Stand back!" The King of England waved his hands with majesty on his old face, "We will discuss this matter later."

"this……"

Everyone present looked at each other in blank dismay. Didn't the king talk about discussing the heir to the throne at first? Why did you change your mind now?

But they didn't dare to say that. The current king of England has a fickle mood. A few years ago, he actually killed a duke for the sake of a female elf. This really scared many nobles.

"Tat Tat Tat..."

Soon all the nobles in the parliament hall retreated, and the King of England sat on the throne, his face full of gloom.

"Boom!"

The King of England kicked the table in front of him away, and roared out of breath, "A group of damned rebels, do you really think I'm going to die? Can't wait to stand in line now?"

"Hoo hoo hoo..."

In the next second, the King of England almost couldn't catch his breath, and sat down on the ground in despair, silently looking at the wrinkled skin and age spots on the back of his hands.

"I'm really old!" The King of England lowered his head, his cloudy eyes were full of unwillingness, he was no longer in his prime.

He is no longer the king in his prime, but just an old man, and he can't accept his old age.

"Lucy, where is she?" the King of England asked slowly.

"His Royal Highness is in her own palace right now." The maid standing aside immediately responded respectfully.

"Go and call her!" The King of England waved his hand.

He looked at the back of the maid who went away, and silently scanned the empty hall, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, "You are really three idiots who have attracted so many greedy guys. If you can't satisfy them in the future, you should be backlashed!"

The King of England has been sitting on this throne for the past few years, and he has had nightmares every day, for fear that some big nobles will rebel, in order to suppress these ambitious big nobles.

He actually found a lame reason, saying that he wanted to snatch elves from the Grand Duke. All of this was just an excuse. He wanted to come and make an example of others, to deter those great nobles. He, the King of England, could still wield a sword.

Sure enough, after the grand duke was killed, all the restlessness was suppressed, and those arrogant and domineering nobles did not dare to act too much.

"It didn't take long before these people started again." The King of England sighed, "If I hadn't fought for the throne back then, wouldn't I have been more..."

"Say something stupid, if you don't argue, maybe you are dead now." The King of England thought of his brothers, who were all buried by him.

"Tat Tat Tat..."

There was a sound of hurried footsteps, and a girl with blond hair and golden pupils trotted in from outside. She was Princess Lucy, the youngest daughter of the King of England.

"Father, why are you sitting on the ground?" Princess Lucy shouted anxiously, reaching out to help the King of England, but she waved her hand and refused.

"I'm not old enough to be supported."

The King of England stood up tremblingly, looked at his daughter with worried eyes, and said kindly, "What have you been researching recently?"

"I, I..." Princess Lucy blushed slightly, turned her head away, and whispered, "I want to write a romantic story between a great lord and a princess these days."

"Oh? This time the heroine is actually a princess?" The King of England raised his eyebrows and said in surprise, "Could it be you? It seems that Lucy is also thinking of getting married."

"That's right, that's not true. Father, you are old and unruly." Princess Lucy was in a hurry, stomping her feet and shouting, "I just want to write a different story."

"Cough cough cough..."

The King of England choked on the old unscrupulous sentence, and shook his head with a wry smile, "Go for a walk, maybe it will make you more thoughtful."

"Ah?" Princess Lucy stared at her golden eyes and asked in astonishment, "Father, where do you want me to go?"
