Lord of Riding and Slashing

Chapter 372 Nobles and Commoners

Nord, who wandered around the Besse Palace, was very satisfied. Although Grand Duke Besse had died for many days, the place was not deserted. The servants are still there.

No matter who the owner of the palace is, these servants can stay in the palace safe and sound. Who is the new owner of the palace.

But when Nord hung the eagle flag of the Isaac family above the palace, some nobles showed thoughtful expressions on their faces, and then began to talk a lot, because it reminded them of those who were killed half a year ago. The prodigals they laughed at.

At the beginning, many people felt that after the prodigal son left, Veron City lost a lot of fun, and they could no longer find anyone to make fun of, but they did not expect Nord to come back again in this form of the return of the king. In front of their eyes, at this time, no nobleman dared to laugh at Nord's prodigal son, and they didn't even have the courage to look at Nord.

Because the image in Nord's heart is so different from theirs, they couldn't believe that the resolute and brave young man in front of them was the prodigal son of the declining family back then, but no matter how suspicious the nobles of Veron City were, they couldn't believe it. It can't change the fact that Nord has staged a good show of the return of the king.

Nord is not in a hurry to be crowned king, but necessary rectification is still necessary. After taking down the city of Veron, Nord immediately transferred Scholars Hill, Judge Matthew and Lowell to the city of Veron, because This was originally the original political center of the Principality of Besse.

Even after being occupied by the Seaman Kingdom, these bloated institutions have not been abolished. The Seaman Kingdom is still planning to occupy the entire territory of the Principality of Besse, and let these departments continue to help them rule the entire land of the Principality of Besse. Then these nobles of the Seaman Kingdom were driven away by Nord.

Nord's purpose for letting them come over is to give later. The preparations for the founding of the Nord country began. The most important point is that Nord did not look down on the previous system of the Principality of Besse. Nord wanted them to discuss a suitable national system.

Of course, Nord’s steward, Abel, came with them. Nord wanted him to help him clean up the palace. Although the palace now has a steward who leads the servants, Nord doesn’t believe them. It’s still Abel. Only the butler can make Nord feel at ease, and Nord has not forgotten that Grand Duke Besse was caught by the second prince in the palace.

Although Nord does not believe that anyone dares to attack him now, Nord must also take precautions before they happen. As long as those people are not given a chance, Nord believes that no one can touch him at all, and The most important thing is that Nord is now in Veron City.

Veron City is a big city with complex people. It is different from the remote mountain village Nord stayed in before. The folk customs there are simple and the people are not so thoughtful. However, there are nearly 100,000 people in Veron City living in this area. , it can be said that there are too many people, and even the spies of the Seaman Kingdom are hidden in it, and it is difficult to be found.

Therefore, Nord still has a lot of work to do, such as the household registration system, or a large-scale national census. The workload of this matter makes Nord's scalp tingle when he thinks about it. This is not something that can be done in a while. do things.

But Nord is not in a hurry, these things can be done slowly, and now Nord's primary problem is the war with the Seaman Kingdom, so there is a lot of time for Hill Scholars to do the preliminary preparations, and now they have After Flying Eagle passed on the letter, they can also handle matters in distant territories in Veron City. Although the efficiency will become lower, no matter how low it is, the efficiency is much higher than that of other countries in this era.

Just one month after Lehman went to recover the Western Territory, Nord carried out vigorous reforms in the city of Veron. When Nord just recovered the city of Veron, it was the most appropriate time to carry out reforms, because during this period, whether it is Nobles or civilians will be honest when facing Nord.

They don't know what kind of temper Nord is like now. Maybe after they figure out Nord's temper, they will have to spend some means to make them so honest. It will be very simple to implement it now. , there is no need to spend so much effort.

Then these civilians and nobles who have lived in Veron City for decades discovered that after Nord took control of Veron City, the city that had just experienced war had undergone great changes, such as those who patrolled the streets. The soldiers made those nobles very annoying, because it was impossible for them to show off their might.

These soldiers don't care what kind of nobles they are, as long as they violate the regulations, they will be arrested. The nobles were overwhelmed, and they felt that they were surrounded by heavy shackles.

This is what Nord has been doing during this time, trying to suppress the privileges of the nobles of Belon City as much as possible, so that they can better implement their own system after the founding of the country, because Nord knows that he will definitely restrict the nobles in the future and give the common people greater rights.

Therefore, Nord will start to attack the prestige of these nobles from now on, so that they can clearly realize that the times have changed. The era ruled by Nord is not at all the era in which they can do whatever they want. After Nord entered the city of Veron, these The prestige of the nobles in Belon City is getting worse day by day.

And the civilians in Veron City also gradually realized that the new owner of the city treated them very friendly, which allowed Nord to quickly win the hearts of the people in Veron City. The common people in the backcountry are completely different, and there are many elite figures among these common people.

Then, after Scholars Hill reported to Nord, Nord quickly recruited many elites among the common people as their helpers. It ignited the fire in the hearts of the civilians in Veron City, and these civilians knew that their good days were coming.

During Nord's one-month stay in Veron City, the civilians in Veron City felt elated, and they no longer had the same cringe in front of the nobles, especially when Nord brought a large number of civilians into his command. After they managed the city together with Scholars Hill, the prestige of Nord in the entire city of Belon reached its peak.

In this city, the nobles are still a minority, but they had the majority of power before. Now Nord has delegated the power of the nobles to the common people, in order to win the majority of the common people to stand by his side. Because Nord knows very well how powerful these low-level civilians can erupt.

They are like a drop of water in a big river, usually calm in the embankment, and when someone releases them from the embankment, the power gathered by these low-level civilians is endless.
