Black Iron Crown

When such a thing happened, the whole country would inevitably be outraged, and the gentry and farmers all over the country would feel uncomfortable, and at the same time, the majesty of the royal family would be lost.

He can take advantage of this annoying opportunity to do all the things that Reiner didn't dare to do in the past.

For example, Lena has been restricted by the empire now, because he bears the name of the little emperor's vassal. Although he is an independent grand duchy, the two parties still have a subordinate relationship.

When the Ridka Empire drew the map, the Grand Duchy of the Northern Territory would also be included. With the relationship of this courtier, Leiner was unable to take the initiative in many matters.

Even the previous siege of the imperial capital had to be done in the name of the Qing emperor, otherwise it would be a real rebellion.

And if Reiner becomes an independent country, then not only will he be able to gain the initiative in many matters and reduce constraints, but at the same time, his status as a member of the Moreland family will not be changed.

Moreover, although Reiner was the leader of the royal lords before, after all, he was only elected, not a nominal and actual dual leader.

Once something unexpected happens, they can completely stop Leiner's orders, and Leiner has no way to order them.

This time is just an opportunity, Leiner can be sure that these royal lords are annoyed, not to mention that the Earl Redmara and the Queen have almost offended the royal lords to death, once he becomes independent, he may not be able to give They provide shelter.

It just so happened that the people of the Kingdom of Bukeden were still in the imperial capital. If these royal lords did not swear allegiance to themselves, they might be crusaded.

This happened to force the lords of the royal family to be loyal to him, and Reiner couldn't help but praise the queen of the imperial capital and Earl Redmara in his heart.

Reiner rolled his eyes slightly, and said to Logan: "Let your people continue to publicize this matter, saying that the dignity of the empire has long been insulted, and no descendant of Merland can bear it, and the empire has signed a different agreement." The Treaty of Equality shames the Empire, let's get this thing fired up!"

"My relatives must be more dissatisfied with the royal family, understand?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will obey your orders!" Logan smiled sinisterly.

As a result, one after another rumors were spread like this.

What Earl Redmara is actually a running dog of the Kingdom of Bookern, and they have already reached an agreement to empty the empire.

Or the identity of the princess of the kingdom of Bookern about the queen,

She wants to help her home country gain benefits from the empire.

There were even rumors that Earl Redmara wanted to collude with the Kingdom of Bookern to sit on the throne of the empire himself.

Hearing these rumors, Earl Jollal became even more angry. He wished he could lead his troops directly to the imperial capital and hang everyone in the Kingdom of Bukeden, Earl Redmara and others.

But he also knows that his current strength is simply not enough to accomplish such a goal.

So Tata immediately asked his servants to prepare horses and headed north with a dozen followers.

"Reiner! I want to see Grand Duke Reiner!" Earl Jollal said unceremoniously to the guard at the gate of the main castle of Mecaron City.

When Earl Jolar had just arrived in the northern border, Reiner had already received the news, and asked the guard at the gate to let him in immediately after he arrived.

Earl Jollal was led to Rainer's study by his servants, and he said angrily as soon as he entered the door: "Leiner! The people of the Bookeden Kingdom must pay the price! The same is true for those pigs! How dare they treat the former A person who has made great contributions to the empire!"

"Alright, alright, Earl Jollal, calm down!"

When Earl Jollal's anger was almost vented, Reiner said: "I am also very angry when something like this happened, and they really should pay the price!"

"But definitely not now!" Reiner patted Earl Jollal on the shoulder.

"Why! They are too much!" Earl Choral said angrily.

"But we don't have that strength now. We have just carried out a continuous battle. The soldiers are already exhausted, and your heart disease has just joined the army. You must go through training to have combat effectiveness."

"What's more, there are 12,000 regular troops in the Kingdom of Bukeden. We simply can't organize more troops than them now. The Bazaran Kingdom in the west is also invading our country. We can't do this anymore Under the circumstances of internal and external troubles, start the civil war again!"

"What's more, we just signed the treaty. If we tear up the treaty less than a year after it was signed, it will bring great damage to our reputation!"

"You also know that the Kingdom of Bazaland is not the only country that covets our empire. The Western Kingdom of Mirador is also ready to move. They are much stronger than the Kingdom of Bazaland. If we start another civil war, you can guarantee that they will not Invasion of the Empire?"

"At that time, the entire empire will be full of wars and wars, and the empire that has just been unified for 27 years will fall into a situation of falling apart again. We are sinners, and we must not do this!"

Listening to Reiner's statement, Earl Jollal gradually calmed down, and said in a muffled voice, "Then what should we do? Are we just watching the empire being insulted like this?"

"We have no other choice..."

Reiner pondered for a while, and then said: "I plan to break away from the rule of the empire and give up my allegiance to that bastard emperor!"

As soon as these words came out, Earl Jollal stared at Reiner with wide eyes. He couldn't believe that Reiner dared to make such a decision.

"You... are you crazy? You want to leave the empire?"

"That's right, the royal family and the emperor are no longer worthy of my allegiance. I can't continue to be loyal to a royal family that has repeatedly betrayed the interests of the empire!"

"But... don't we also disobey the orders of that bastard and queen now? Even if you are independent, isn't it the same?"

"No! After I become independent, I will no longer be subordinate to him. Even if I don't obey his orders, no one can condemn me. I don't want to hear any of their son-of-a-bitch orders!"

"Moreover, what I say can also put a certain amount of pressure on the Queen and Earl Redmara. Although I am no longer their vassal, I am still a descendant of the Murand family after all. If they dare to do anything to harm the empire I can declare war in the name of the grand duke of another country, not the side of the so-called Qing emperor!"

Hearing that Reiner's reason was so good, Earl Jolar sighed, stared at him for a long time, and said, "Well, I hope your method will work, and I can't stop you."

As a result, a wave of public opinion reappeared in the northern border. The country gentry did not know what kind of instigation they had received. They became more and more dissatisfied with the royal family, and their calls for the independence of His Majesty the Grand Duke became louder and louder.

After "thinking twice", Reiner also felt that the royal family was not worthy of allegiance, so he prepared to declare independence on October 20, the twenty-seventh year of the empire.
