Chapter 247: The Trap

On the second day after Xue Hua was busy with the great evolution of the insect swarm in the Barrier Mountain Range, the new king of Lugoin, Lei Hein, issued a series of orders regarding the rebuilding of Lugoin.

These decrees included a royal initiative to raise funds for the reconstruction of the harbor and downtown districts, as well as a plan for reinforcements for the ongoing war in the Yucatanna.

The plan for the resumption of free trade and the order for the end of the state of emergency were also issued at the same time.

In addition to these economic and reconstruction plans, His Majesty's plans include military operations such as the clearing of the rubble wastelands and the recovery of towns previously occupied by the Demon Legion, which will be carried out by Chris, the newly promoted Captain of the Royal Guard.

In addition to this, His Majesty received the emissaries from the Council of the Demon Fortress, and the two sides held a secret meeting in the Dome Hall for nearly three days, which was attended by only four Guardians of the Rugoin side and the King himself.

After the meeting, the emissaries of the Demon Fortress Council visited Sarah String, the queen of the Amazon Storm from the Howorth Islands, and they also had a secret meeting for the morning.

At the end of all the talks, the emissaries of the Demon Fortress Council announced in public that they would donate a large number of various supplies to the people of Rugauin in the name of the Council as a reward and encouragement for their repulsion against the Demon Legions.

At the same time, the Council of the Demon Fortress has also generously rewarded every professional and mercenary who has contributed to the defense of Lugoin in this war.

All participating professionals and mercenaries have received an unidentified piece of gold-level equipment, and the attributes of this equipment are said to be at the worst level.

For those who are unfortunate enough to be brave on the battlefield, their families or relatives will receive a large pension, and their relatives can choose to get that gold-level piece of equipment or exchange it for at least two full-level gems!

Of course, there is also a share of Xue Hua in these things, but because Xue Hua is not in Lu Gaoyin at this time, he is temporarily led by Kane.

Moreover, as the most outstanding professional in the defense battle, Xue Hua also received a special gift from the council and His Majesty the King, which was naturally kept by Kane first, and when Xue Hua returned, he was asked to open it himself.

This series of measures by the Council of the Demon Fortress has strengthened the confidence of the people of Lugoin to rebuild their homeland.

Now, no matter where you walk the streets of Rugoin, you can see caravans pulling all kinds of building supplies and materials to and fro, huge beasts of burden are temporarily allowed to enter any area of Lugoin, and construction craftsmen with sheepskin drawings and tools in their hands fill the streets.

Especially in the more damaged harbour area, which is now a huge construction site!

In the midst of this thriving scene, there are still conspirators in the dark corners of Rugoin who are ready to carry out a more long-term plan.

In an ornate courtyard in the upper town, the kingdom's finance minister, Ceci Izquil, dressed in a white gold-trimmed robe and a white turban around his head, was sitting in a gazebo in the corner of the courtyard with a black cloak on his head and a brutal, war-streaked face.

"Damn it! Jayhain, that guy is so useless! It's a shame that we wasted so much energy to put him on the throne and married my sister to him!

This guy actually dared to abandon his sister and his own son and run away, and he was caught by those evil deeds without dying! ”

The big man with war streaks on his face roared viciously, as if he had a lot of dissatisfaction and complaints against the previous king, Jehein.

"Alright, my child... You should understand that this time we did lose, completely lost!

Not only did we not expect that there would be a Legendary Evil Pact among the people we accepted, but we almost served as a stepping stone to the Demon Legion's attack plan......"

Ceci shook her head slightly, as if to comfort the young man next to her, but also as if she was lamenting something.

He really should regret that their family's plan had been prepared for quite some time, even before he was promoted to the throne.

For this reason, he not only put in a lot of financial and material resources and energy, but even let his only son "die" as soon as he was born.

Such a deliberate plan ended up with such an ending, how can you be willing to call him?

And the most important thing is that at the end of this big event, their family actually has a very precious opportunity to get their hands on that throne!

When Jehein was captured for abandoning the city and fleeing, the king's throne was abandoned, and the entire upper political situation of Lu Gaoin was leaderless, if the parliamentary system was adopted to let the regent act as the king, then he would be the best candidate to become the regent!

If things really happened as he thought, he was sure that he would be able to minimize the influence of the Hein royal family among the people within five years.

When the political situation is stable, and the prince born to his eldest daughter succeeds to the throne justifiably, the entire kingdom of Lugoin can be effectively controlled by the Izakir family!

Pity!

Who would have thought that Lei Hein was not dead!

And it's back at such a critical moment!

It is said that it was the necromancer who is now hailed as a "war hero" who saved and cured him......

Thinking of the cold eyes of His Majesty the new King at the dinner party a few days ago, Sisi's heart could not contain a chill.

Ray Hain was not as easy to deal with as his stupid brother, and although the king had always been kind, he would never be soft on the tough question!

The Itziquir family had attacked him more than a decade ago, and he was the mastermind of that operation at that time!

Although there is no evidence of this matter, and the Itzikil family is not so easy to mess with.

But Jehein has fallen into the hands of his brother!

This guy knows everything about that action!

In case he can't stand the torture and spit out something to Lei Hein, then the Itzikil family will not fall, and at least a layer of skin will have to be shed!

"Father! Father! Are you alright? Why is there so much sweat on my forehead all of a sudden? Is it sick? ”

Albert, who was sitting next to him, was listening to his old father's teachings with bated breath, but suddenly noticed beads of sweat rolling down his father's forehead, and he immediately helped his father in a little panic, and at the same time prepared to ask the waiter to go to the doctor.

"Kid... Child! Our family is in trouble! ”

The old Chancellor of the Exchequer groaned as if he were having trouble breathing, and the words he uttered made Albert's head roll with a lot of sweat.

"What are you talking about? Father? ”

"Jehein fell into the hands of his brother this time, I'm afraid what the family did back then can't be hidden!

This king's means and character are amazing! If he gets the evidence, the Itziquil family will be ruined! ”

Ceci gasped for air, his face alternating red and white, as if he might close his breath at any moment.

"Father, don't worry, the child has long expected this section, and I have already paid off the jailers in the prison to add some ingredients to the medicine that our 'new king' will give him before he interrogates him......

Hearing that his father was actually worried about this matter, Albert suddenly laughed and whispered with a mysterious and dark expression.

However, who would have thought, after listening to his plan, Ceci suddenly yelled out with a frightened face.

"No!"

"Why not?" Albert furrowed his thick eyebrows a little inexplicably.

"Do you think that Lei Hein, like Jehin, is a fool who only knows how to seize power?

Let me tell you, our new king is definitely ten thousand times smarter than you think! You can think of it, he can think of it too!

He must have laid a net in the prison by now, just waiting for your men to attack Jehin! ”
