Chapter 257 Give your life for it
"Duke Aphlo, your consortium really covers the sky with one hand! Since you are so capable, why do you ask me?" Arcado said with a smile.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! I know it wrong! I will definitely..." At this moment, the Duke of Avro kowtowed like garlic, for fear of being dragged out and hanged.
Acardo laughed loudly: "Don't be so nervous! In fact, what you have committed is not a major crime of killing the head.
It's strange in everyone's hearts. What's wrong with His Majesty the King to let go of such a shameless villain?
"With such a bad character, it is impossible to do business honestly, so I announced that your consortium will be excluded from the cooperation circle of the Commercial Department of the Principality of Shengjian and will never be reused." Arcado continued.
As soon as Duke Aphrod heard it, he knew that he was finished. If this matter spread, his business would be destroyed by at least 90%.
As he was begging for mercy, he heard Arcado continue to punish him: "In addition, isn't it too much to confiscate 5 million gold coins for falselying others and bullying?"
Duke Aphrod felt black in front of him and a little fainted. Although this was not all his assets, it was enough to make his industry collapse.
Acardo walked to Karus and Judy as if he had not seen Avro and asked with a smile, "Karus, would you like to study at the Rome Island Military Academy?"
"Of course! I would like to go! I will go to Rome Island with Judy. I have lived there for 2 years and learned a lot of knowledge, which has supported me to this day. Karus said.
"Viscount Bana, do you object to your daughter's marriage to Karlius?" Arcado asked knowingly.
Viscount Bana smiled awkwardly and then bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty is joking. If you are married in person, how can anyone have the idea of objecting? This is a great honor for our family."
"You are responsible for recovering the 5 million gold coins of Duke Aphrod. Half of them will be handed over to the treasury, and the other half will be my personal blessing to the new couple."
Acardo turned around, looked sharply across the crowd, looked at the remaining small nobles of the Avro consortium, and said coldly, "The Marquis of Pruett and Count Dua cut into civilians and confiscated their property!" The rest of the nobles fined 300,000 gold coins each!"
He paused and continued, "This is just the punishment you hate today! I will then order a thorough investigation of your other crimes, and once other circumstances are found, I will be punished separately!"
"You have enjoyed more resources than others, do not lead everyone to get rich together, do not help your fellow villagers, and even bully them, and always show your superiority? Ridiculous! Do you think this is a nobleman? This is a vulgar hooligan act! Gentlemen! Even I have to rely on countless ordinary people to feed me! You despise them when you despise yourself!
The money in your hands is also given to you by others! Many people are actually working for the Duchy of Sword and working for me. Am I right? Why do I never embarrass you? Why didn't I put on a face to bully you? If it's about qualification, don't I have it?
If I deal with you like you bully the common people, will there be so many people supporting me here today, and will the soldiers outside the door rush up and cut me with knives? Arcado questioned angrily.
As soon as Akado's words fell, he knelt down and cut the emperor with a knife? The King of Dormont of the Principality of Mellock is not so rebellious, not to mention the King of the Sword in the sky?
"City Lord!" Arcado called. The city owner immediately stood up and bowed his head and said, "Yes!"
Arcado thought for a moment and issued an order: "Send someone to Romer City and inform Princess Meadow, who will supervise the official department and Morgan, the head of the education department, to comprehensively rectify the aristocracy in the Principality!" All the nobles who are virtuous and incompetent to disturb the place will be abolished!"
Subsequently, according to this order, the "Nobility's Thorough Investigation Order" was thoroughly investigated all the nobles in the provinces occupied by the three Holy Sword Principality. Unexpectedly, as many as 70% of the nobles were removed from their titles, more than 90% of the nobles were fined their assets, and the police and administrative departments at all levels were required to focus on checking the words and deeds of the nobles. At the same time, we supervise and manage the privilege of officials.
This order is the predecessor of the "Regulation on the Administration of Nobles and Officials" known as the "end of Privilege" in later generations. It fundamentally eliminates the privileges of the aristocracy and makes the nobles call it a real moral benchmark, and the status of the nobles in people's minds has risen and become a noble gentleman respected by everyone.
At the same time, officials at all levels are also bound. They are no longer privileged and no longer worshipped by others, but have become public servants of the people. The regulations stipulate that officials are supervised by local nobles, local civilians, and supervised by superior officials. Such several supervision systems operate together and govern Unprecedented Qingming.
After dealing with the Duke of Avro, Arcado announced that the banquet would continue. The two newlyweds who were married by Arcado became the focus of attention. They may not have the courage to please the king, but they still have the courage to please the king's friends.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Karus came to Arcado with a glass, picked up the glass slightly and said, "Thank you very much, my friend."
"Since you are a friend, don't say thank you. If you can remember my dream I told you, just help me realize it." Arcado took a sip of wine and said with a smile.
"When I'm ready, I'll go to Rome Island and take Judy with me. I want her to learn something and then go to work in the civil affairs department." Karus said.
Acardo laughed happily and said, "Sell me your daughter-in-law? Hahaha, okay, I support this idea."
"It turns out that I think there is only one person in the world who deserves my life for her, that is Judy; now I think I can give my life for the faith of the Duchy of Sword!" Karus said solemnly.
Arcado smiled and said, "If you think my dream is very suitable for you, then you can work with me. The Principality of Sword will become more and more beautiful and become a holy place on the continent of Yavia."
"For the Holy Sword Principality!" Karus raised his glass.
"For freedom! Cheers!" Arcado shouted loudly.
"Hung Holiness St. Rudolph!" After hearing Acado's voice, everyone raised their glasses and cheered loudly.
On the fourth day after the dance, after a grand wedding ceremony, Karus took his new wife to Rome Island to study. Karus entered the Army Armored Command Academy. A year later, his wife Judy was admitted to the household cadre training class.
Three years later, the couple became a dazzling new star in their department.
