Chapter 541 Shelved

As Sharon's voice fell, the banquet hall resounded with heated discussions again.

Some people say that Sharon should become the new king and lead the Kingdom of Alduin to continue. After all, that is how it is according to the law;

However, some people have raised objections.

Now that we are facing powerful enemies like the Kingdom of Tricia and the foreign races, we should let a strong person ascend the throne, only in this way can we create a big empire.

Although Earl Ibn is strong, he is far inferior to Luoning.

Therefore, this group of people suggested that Blanche should be allowed to take over the position of king, and Luo Ning should be allowed to serve as regent to lead the nobles to conquer all directions.

As the parties involved, Sharon and Blanche did not express their opinions. Neither of them was very interested in the king, but they both supported whether their respective men could be regents.

They left the choice to Iben and Luo Ning, but these two people did not express their opinions.

Iben listened to the discussions around him. He had visited many nobles in the past few days to fight for the interests of Sharon and himself.

The Torrance family has sacrificed a lot to gain supporters.

On the other hand, Luo Ning didn't move around. Even if Rulans did it instead, I heard that he didn't pay any price.

Ibn did this not because he really wanted to compete for the throne.

He still had the same attitude as before. As long as Luo Ning wanted to fight, he would give in and use this to gain as much benefit as possible for the Torrance family.

Anyway, the fight was based on the laws of the kingdom, so Luo Ning would not offend them.

The quarrel lasted for a long time, but gradually, a third voice emerged:

At this moment, not long after His Majesty's death, enemies are watching from outside. The top priority of the nobles of the Kingdom of Alduin is to resolve the external enemies and internal chaos, instead of discussing here and there about who will take over as king.

Luo Ning knew as soon as he heard it that this voice was spread by Lulans, so that people who supported the Wushan family would throw it out at the noble meeting.

But this voice soon ushered in doubts - without a king, who would unify different opinions? Without a top decision-maker, who will resolve differences?

After some time, the old Duke Varghese rubbed his brows and patted the table. The banging sound stopped the chaotic sound.

"It's not an option for everyone to keep arguing like this. Anyway, we either support Sharon or Blanche. I think we should let the two of them express their opinions?"

As he spoke, he seemed to think that the two of them were relying on Iben and Luo Ning, and then said: "Or let Iben and Luo Ning say a few words on behalf of your wife?"

Varghese wanted to support Ronin, but Rulans hadn't expressed his stance yet?

Coupled with Ronin's unusual statement during Garrett's trial just now, he decided to listen to the two people's accounts first.

Sharon nodded towards Iben, who stood up and bowed.

"Thank you for your support to Sharon. As His Majesty's eldest daughter, legally speaking, she is indeed the first person to inherit the throne."

Iben admitted this first, but then changed the topic: "But for the sake of the future of the kingdom, I think what some people say is very reasonable. The legendary Duke Ronin can lead us further."

He said and looked at Luo Ning: "So, why don't we listen to Luo Ning's opinion first?"

Iben was very careful with Ronin. It was impossible for him to completely offend Ronin like Garrett.

His current approach, although he kicked the ball to Luo Ning, was also a helpless move due to entanglement.

Luo Ning smiled slightly.

Iben not only brought out the law and recognized Sharon's rationality, but also gave Luoning steps to step down no matter what.

But Luo Ning didn't want to follow what the other party said.

"Thank you to many people for their support of Blanche and their recognition of me. It's just that neither Blanche nor I are interested in the throne of the Kingdom of Alduin."

As soon as this statement came out, many people were immediately surprised.

Even Iben was a little stunned. What did this mean? If he said this in public, could it be that Luo Ning really wanted Sharon to ascend the throne?

His heart couldn't help but pounding, and he thought to himself: "Is it possible that I really want to be the regent?"

Luo Ning took out a piece of paper and said slowly:

"When His Majesty Bruno granted me the title of Conqueror Duke in the Misty City, he made a request to me privately, which was to lead the nobles of the Kingdom of Alduin to break through Tricia and establish a great empire belonging to Alduin."

"At the same time, in return, he allowed me to choose territory and establish my own kingdom after taking over Dragon City. This is the contract I signed with His Majesty."

With that said, he handed the paper in his hand to Varghese who was standing aside.

The latter was surprised because this matter was a private matter between Luo Ning and Bruno, and no outsiders knew about it.

Varghese took it and read it, and couldn't help but nod: "This is indeed His Majesty's handwriting, and it was also signed with two people's names, fingerprints, and seals!"

As he spoke, he handed the contract paper to Gu Shan aside, and then passed it on one after another.

At this time, many people's expressions became lively.

It turns out that Luo Ning is going out to work alone?

Iben took the contract and looked at the familiar handwriting on it, feeling that the paper was a bit prickly.

It is not difficult to see from this contract that Luo Ning wants to become the king himself.

In other words, he is interested in the throne.

When Bruno was here, the other party was able to obey Bruno's demolition due to many factors.

But if Bruno is replaced by Sharon, will the other party still obey the order?

Moreover, if the other party becomes king at that time, what will be the relationship between his country and Alduin?

In Iben's view, Luo Ning would never succumb to the position of king, let alone hand over all the territory of the enemy country to Sharon.

Conflict between the two sides was entirely predictable.

When the time comes, with the prestige of Luo Ning, who leads the nobles in battle, and his strength, he and Sharon will definitely not be able to compete.

Thoughts flashed through his mind like lightning, and he said solemnly:

"His Majesty's last wish is to destroy the Kingdom of Tricia and establish a new empire on the Orlant continent."

"I think some nobles were right just now. Before fulfilling His Majesty's last wish, it is not appropriate for us to discuss who will ascend the throne here."

Luo Ning was a little surprised. He and Lulans were originally going to bring the topic to this, but they didn't expect that Iben would take the lead.

After Iben said this, he passed the contract to the next person.

"In my opinion, we should inherit the legacy of the late king and elect Luo Ning to be the commander-in-chief of the nobles. He will first lead us to conquer the Kingdom of Tricia and eradicate all enemies. Then we will select the most suitable successor as king based on many factors such as military exploits, prestige, and ability. "

He paused and then said: "Perhaps it should be called the 'Great Emperor' at that time?"

Everyone couldn't help but be surprised by Iben's statement.

Combat merit, prestige, and ability, which of these three standards is not tailor-made for Luo Ning?

Who can compare with the commander-in-chief and the strongest man of the noble coalition?

Ibn's statement was tantamount to withdrawing from the battle for the throne directly, and withdrawing very honorably.

Luo Ning couldn't help but look down on him.

Ibon was able to resist the temptation of power in such a short period of time and at the same time make quick decisions. This man is indeed a character.

If there wasn't such a big disparity in strength between the two, there would probably be a fierce confrontation between them. (End of chapter)
