Chapter 561 The rats in the Red Castle need to be rectified

No one knows the farce that happened in the Stone Crusher Castle, but maybe one day, it will be exposed to everyone's view along with a diary.

At the same time.

There was also a farce in the Swan Castle in the Fire Ant Swamp.

After the imperial edict was brought to the Swan Castle by the Red Castle Shadow Guard Knight, it completely cut off Kunsip Sunflower's thoughts. As the second son of the family, no, it should be said that he had no chance to inherit the title of Swan Baron.

"Quinsip, be sensible, get ready, and go to congratulate Russell on his coronation as the new Grand Duke." His brother Kunslai whispered to him.

Kunsip gritted his teeth: "Don't you know shame? You were only one step away from the Grand Duke!"

Quinslai didn't mind: "So what? Now the Grand Duke is not mine. This is an unchangeable result. As a nobleman, don't have fantasies all day long. Learn to accept reality and be down-to-earth."

After saying that.

He also patted Kunsip's face: "My dear brother, if you can learn to accept reality and go to the battlefield to kill more snow ghosts in the future, I may still enfeoff you as a lord."

"Heh, I care about your threats?" Kunsip sneered, "Grandfather will enfeoff me. If grandfather doesn't enfeoff me, father will enfeoff me!"

"Don't be silly!" Kunslai also sneered, "Father has decided to withdraw from the succession candidate, which means that I am grandfather's first heir! Kunsip, I advise you to give up your unrealistic fantasies."

"You!"

Quinsip was furious, and Kunslai no longer paid attention to him and went directly to the hall of Swan Castle.

In the hall, Baron Kunbiff had summoned many lords of the territory to come together to discuss: "Earl Lei Yan's succession to the Grand Duke is unshakable. The Sunflower Family can only accept it. I will personally go to attend the coronation ceremony."

Earlier, Kunbiff shouted fiercely that he would never set foot in the Red Castle again after Russell ascended the throne. Unfortunately, he had to go.

Not going would be regarded as a rebellion.

"Sir, for now, we can only accept this reality. No matter what, the Shadow Flame Dragon Blood Family is a peaceful handover. His Highness Russell must always take into account the impact. If we keep a low profile, he will not take action against the Fire Ant Swamp." A lord said.

At this time, Queensley came over.

Baron Kunbiff looked at his eldest grandson and asked, "You will go to the Red Castle with me to pay homage to the new Grand Duke."

"Yes, grandfather." Queensley replied.

"After you go, you know what to do, right?"

"My grandson will try his best to repair the relationship with the new Grand Duke, and the Sunflower Family will be the new Grand Duke's unwavering supporter." Queensley said loudly.

It was really uncomfortable for Kunbif to hear this, but he nodded affirmatively: "That's right. Although our Sunflower Family and the New Grand Duke had disputes in the past, they never broke up, and the New Grand Duke never suffered any loss... In short, I can't bow my head, everything depends on you."

Quinsley responded: "Grandfather, you have protected the family's development and growth, how can you bow your head in front of the New Grand Duke? As the heir of the family, I will naturally give everything for the family, including dignity, how can I just enjoy it!"

"Good!" Baron Kunbif stroked his beard and smiled.

Several lords also praised: "Young Master Sun knows the general situation and knows how to advance and retreat. The Sunflower Family has successors!"

Quinsley accepted the compliments of the lords with a smile.

Quinspu, who came later, had a gloomy face and wanted to beat Kunsley to death on the spot, but he couldn't beat his eldest brother.

…

“Woo-woo-woo!”

The whistle of the steam locomotive sounded, and it whirred on the test track of the black oil mine. The speed was not very fast, but it meant the birth of a new means of transportation.

Pa-pa-pa…

Russell was the first to applaud.

He was quite satisfied with the progress of the industrial era in the territory. After all, it was starting from scratch and there were not enough talents.

With a group of polymaths and a group of craftsmen, a train can be built. What else is there to be dissatisfied about?

Of course.

Thanks to this being an extraordinary world, full of magical metals and gems, polymaths do not need to worry about all kinds of materials. With theoretical guidance and skilled craftsmen, samples can be pieced together at will.

Steam locomotives and rails are pieced together in this way.

“The next step is to build a complete train and then lay the first railway on the Yunmeng Oasis!”

“Yes, Your Highness!” Everyone responded.

After being promoted to the Phantom Dragon Knight, his status is equal to that of a giant dragon, so Charles and others immediately issued a new title for Russell in the Thunder Flame Territory after discussing it. The title of Lord was cancelled and replaced by the title of His Royal Highness.

Considering that he was about to ascend the throne as a Grand Duke, Russell did not refuse. The Phantom Dragon Knight himself was also qualified to be called His Royal Highness.

Your Excellency, Your Royal Highness, Your Majesty, Russell was moving forward step by step.

After watching the trial run of the locomotive, Russell returned to the Cigar Castle, accompanied by Eric, Charles, Grove, Katie, Gronttan Baimaigen and other elders.

"I'm about to ascend the throne in the Red Castle, and from now on, my family and country will be united." After sitting down, Russell looked at his confidants and said, "But the Yunmengze Oasis is my foundation, and I can't give up this place and let it go to waste."

"Your Highness, what do you mean?" Charles asked.

"I need someone to stay here and manage the Yunmengze Small Oasis for me. Of course, I plan to re-divide the Yunmengze Small Oasis...except for the Dark Light Territory, which will be divided into three provinces, Blackfire and Leize. and Qingqiu, together with the eight provinces of the volcanic oasis, form an eleven-province division.”

Russell continued: "Three provinces require three governors. Of course, the most important thing is the governor of Blackfire Province... Who among you is willing to stay?"

Charles was the first to express his position: "Your Highness, I am the governor of the Blackfire Land. Logically speaking, I can directly transfer to the governor of the Blackfire Province. However, I would rather go to the Red Keep with you. After you ascend the throne, you also need a familiar person. People do chores for you.”

Eric followed closely: "I will follow your highness to the Red Fort!"

"Me too!" Katie said.

Grove scratched the back of his head: "Your Highness, you know that I don't know how to manage the territory at all."

Grantan asked cautiously: "Your Highness, you have gone to the Red Castle, will you come back to Cigar Castle often?"

"certainly."

"Then let me stay." Grontan said, "I am just a fantasy beast knight. I went to the Red Castle. I am not even qualified to protect you, so I still stay in the Blackfire Land and take care of the foundation here for you. Bar!"

After Grontan finished speaking, Eric, Grove and Katie were all thoughtful.

Russell also waited quietly.

After a while, Grove first said: "Your Highness, I will stay too, but I'm afraid I'm not qualified for the position of governor. I'd better stay in the Blackfire Land and do some work."

"I'll stay too." Eric took a deep breath, and a tangled look appeared on his dull face, "Your Highness... Your Highness, my talent is not as good as Grontan, and the Phantom Beast Knight is already my limit... …”

Russell nodded in understanding.

Then he looked at Katie.

Katie looked at Russell without fear: "Your Highness, I still want to follow you to the Red Castle. Even if my strength is low, I still want to protect you!"

There was a pause.

Katie made a joke: "I heard that there are a lot of rats in the Red Castle. I think it just so happens that Your Highness needs Jerry to help you sort out those rats."

"Haha, okay!" Russell said with a smile, "That's it, Charles, you and Katie, follow me to the Red Castle. Eric, you stay as the governor of Blackfire Province, and Grontan, you serve as Thunder Governor of Zehang Province, Grove, you go to Qingqiu Province to be the governor.”

After a pause, Russell said: "Of course, this is just a proposed appointment. You need to accumulate enough merits and be canonized as a lord before you can assume the position of governor. Fortunately, Lei Ze and Qingqiu have nothing, so you can afford to wait."

In a few words, Russell decided on the whereabouts of his confidants.

As for the remaining followers, he planned to wait until he ascended the throne before considering whether to take them to the Red Castle or stay in the small oasis of Yunmengze.

Russell then called out the butler's name: "Maurice."

"Master, I'm here."

"Instruct the kitchen to hold a followers' banquet tonight and prepare drinks and dishes." After Russell ordered the butler, he said to Charles, "Go summon my followers. Everyone must come to the banquet on time!"

"Yes, Your Highness!" Charles responded.

That night, Russell and his followers got drunk at Cigar Castle, and every follower was extremely excited.

The lord they follow is about to go to the Red Castle to succeed to the throne!
