Platinum Tooth Palace.
After Osborne Platinum met the emissary group from the Fire Kingdom, he summoned several high-ranking ministers of the kingdom to discuss.
"What kind of etiquette do you think our country should use to deal with the establishment of the Fire Kingdom?"
"Your Majesty, our country has a good relationship with the Fire Kingdom. We should treat it with higher standards to stabilize the friendship between the two countries. After all, our two countries are discussing the partition of the Eagle Kingdom. Both sides should treat this matter with greater sincerity, "said a minister.
"I don't think it's necessary to raise the standards. This will make Liszt think he has the initiative. The two countries should divide the Eagle Kingdom, and our country should be the leader, not the young Fire Kingdom."
"Although the Fire Kingdom is young, Liszt is not a mediocre person. I'm afraid we still need to rely on him in the battle of dragon slaying. It's not too much to give him a higher standard."
"Normal etiquette is enough. Maybe we can give some compensation in the marriage between the Rose and White Family and the Fire Family."
The ministers expressed their opinions, but Osborne frowned, "Let's not mention the marriage for the time being."
"Your Majesty, why?"
Everyone present was Osborne's confidant, so there was nothing to keep secret. He said faintly, "Maybe the Rose and White Family is too confident, and there are some unpredictable changes in the marriage … Maybe Liszt doesn't want the marriage."
"No? How is it possible? The steel pearl of the Rose and White Family is the first beauty in the north. She is the most suitable marriage partner for the royal family in the three kingdoms. How can Liszt be willing to give up such a good marriage if he wants to join the dragon raising family! "
"You think it's good, maybe the other party doesn't think it's good." Osborne squinted and said, "If you have a Siren Magic Shooter and a female Dragon Knight by your side, maybe you will consider what you should choose … This Liszt is really enviable."
Magic Shooter and Dragon Knight were unattainable symbols, and now there were sirens and women as prefixes, which was even more noble and incredible.
Osborne joked that it was "enviable", but in fact, he was really jealous to the point that he couldn't suppress it.
The Siren High Mage and the female Dragon Knight also had a fatal attraction to him. Unfortunately, these noble women were all around Liszt. If he was given a chance, he would immediately give up his current queen and choose one of them to be the new queen.
Anyway, he already had a son, so the reproductive isolation between sirens and humans was no longer a problem.
It was the same for the female Dragon Knight.
However, he could only shout in his heart, "Why!"
"Why is all the glory gathered in Liszt's hands? Why am I, who was bathed in power and born of nobility, not the chosen Son of Glory?!"
"Why is it that the second son of a small noble from a remote countryside, a Sapphire Fly whose bloodline is less than one ten-thousandth of mine, can become a king of a country on equal footing with me?"
"Why isn't the Fire Dragon mine? The Invisible Dragon isn't mine? The Mountain Bronze Dragon isn't mine? The Bone Dragon isn't mine? The Unicorn isn't mine … Why isn't the Siren High Mage or the Dragon Knight mine?"
They shouted again and again.
Unfortunately, when he returned to reality, he had to abandon these feelings.
He had to be a qualified king who prioritized his own interests. "You all have your own opinions, so I will make the final decision. This time, the celebration of the establishment of the Fire Kingdom will be prepared according to the standard of normal etiquette. At the same time, let the Red and White Rose family raise the standard. "
…
"Osborn sent a letter, asking us to continue to increase our efforts to win over Liszt. Mashu, Marilyn, how many gifts do you think we should bring to the Fire Kingdom this time? "Grand Duchess Rose sat at the head of the table and asked while cutting the delicate swan liver.
Mashu put down her knife and fork and showed a handsome smile. "The Red and White Rose family never lacks gifts, but since Uncle Osborn is reluctant to spend his own money, we will send gifts in the name of the Red and White Rose family. In short, we can't let Osborn take advantage of us."
The Grand Duchess said unhappily, "Don't talk about these things between relatives. Mashu, you have to become more mature."
Mashu responded gently, "Mother, although the Red and White Rose family and the Platinum family are close, we are not servants. We still have to show some attitude. Otherwise, if Liszt sees such a situation, I am afraid he will look down on our family, which is not good for my sister. "
"What is Liszt's attitude? Has the marriage not been put on the agenda?" Grand Duchess Rose raised her head and looked at Mashu.
Mashu pondered a little, "There is too much preparation to be done for the establishment of a country. This time, I will make a formal marriage invitation to Liszt."
At this time, Marilyn, who had been silent, suddenly said, "Brother, I don't think you need to mention it."
"Oh, why?"
"Maybe Liszt doesn't have the idea of marriage. It's just our wishful thinking." Marilyn picked up a napkin and wiped the cream from the corner of her mouth. "And I don't want my family to take the initiative to propose marriage. He needs to show sincerity, and now, I don't see any sincerity."
"Marilyn, I am good friends with Liszt. This is sincerity."
"Maybe that's just you being self-righteous."
"I'm self-righteous?" Mashu said with a smile and confidence, "Marilyn, my dear sister, when the people of the Red and White Rose family come up with wealth, there will be no self-righteousness. You have to know that family, love, and friendship can really be bought with money. "
"Maybe all this is just an illusion brought by money."
"No, this is the magic of money!" Mashu refuted her sister. Seeing that her sister did not speak, she said more confidently, "Father, mother, Uncle Osborn sent a letter, then we will take out the red dragon water that should have been sold to the White and White Rose family and give it to Liszt."
Grand Duchess Rose chewed slowly and ate a piece of foie gras. She nodded and said, "If you want to do it, do it well. When your sister becomes the queen of the Fire Kingdom, everything will return to the hands of the Red and White Rose family with interest … Remember, we have a lot of money, but we don't do unprofitable business."
…
Liszt did not pay attention to how the various countries arranged the emissary groups. He was now too busy.
Even after several years of preparation, when they were really ready to establish a country, they found that the thousands of things were actually not ready. After the aristocratic enfeoffment, Flame Island would inevitably fall into the huge pressure of population shortage. How to arrange the labor vacuum after the departure of the aristocrats was the biggest trouble.
This was definitely not the only trouble.
"Your Majesty, this is the development committee's enfeoffment arrangement for the earls and above. You can see if there is anything that needs to be modified or added."
Gort took a list and hurried to the Palace of Sun, Moon, and Stars.
Liszt had officially moved into this magnificent palace, which stood on the top of the two mountains of the sun and the moon.
The development committee had also moved from the Reed City Administration to the Fire Kingdom Administration, making this new big city the heart of Flame Island.
"Sit down first, let me have a look." Liszt took the list and looked at it carefully.
