Unknown Knight
Chapter 128 Everyone has their own agenda
The two letters from the Kingdom of Yalogerk carrying the royal orders caused a huge uproar in the two territories, but the two territories had two completely different reactions.
All of Voldratboye's relatives and dependent nobles in Kudan City were opposed to it. The reasons were varied, such as old grudges were hard to resolve, it was courting the tiger's hide, it was inviting a wolf into the house, etc. In short, they all had one purpose: they were unwilling to do so.
Voldratboye knew exactly what these people were thinking. Ever since his own son Drupoye died in the last war, these people had been coveting the position of heir to Kudan City, especially Westboye, who was entangled with his daughter Katia.
The family of this distant nephew belongs to a branch family with a large population and strong strength. It has the loudest voice and has always coveted Katia, especially after Druboye's death. Westboye launched a strong offensive against Katia, and the meaning is self-evident.
What this poor guy didn't know was that he was just one of Katia's lovers, and was being played around by his own daughter without even realizing it.
As for the other opponents, they more or less hold the same purpose. These short-sighted people, even when faced with disaster, still only know how to pursue benefits, and have no idea that the hair will fall off without the skin.
Not to mention that he has several favorite illegitimate children, even Axboye is the only one who can compare with them.
Voldrat meant to agree to King Yarogerk's request first and get the strong support of Aix. In this way, even if Aix disagrees, it will not offend King Yarogerk.
As long as Aixboye agrees to this marriage, his hope of defending Kudan City and preserving his family business will greatly increase. As for the future, he has to overcome the current difficulties first.
At worst, he could just divorce his current wife to save face and marry the mother of his illegitimate son. Although he might be ridiculed for doing so, he is old and experienced and doesn't care about that. His face is only worth a few silver coins, so as long as he can get benefits, that's enough.
The only problem now was that he didn't know what his daughter meant, so he asked Katia tentatively:
"My dear daughter, what do you think of this marriage ordered by the king?"
Although the family tradition is not good, Miss Katia knows her father's virtues very well, and also knows that the decision-making power of all family matters lies with the old man. What else can she say? What can she decide? She can only sigh and reply:
"Please make the decision, father. For the sake of the family, Katia is willing to do anything."
Voldratboye was very satisfied with his daughter's attitude, and immediately told the messenger from King Yarogerk who came to deliver the letter that he agreed with His Majesty's arrangement.
On the other hand, the situation in Tangquan Fortress was just the opposite. Basically, all the leaders agreed with the marriage.
The reason is actually very simple. Whether by water or by land, Kudan City is a must-go place for business in the territory.
Especially the water routes. After passing the city of Kudan is the city of Kulau controlled by his good friend Rodelaboye. All the way to the sea, there are almost no hostile forces in the entire shipping basin. Unimpeded water trade can greatly promote the development of the territory.
And now that Aix has occupied Fort Lerag, the hostile Kugits have been blocked outside Fort Lerag. The only direction where the Kugits will appear is Kudan City. If Kudan City is lost, the territory will have to face the unexpected invasions of the Kugit cavalry at all times.
Therefore, if the territory wants to have a long-term development environment, Kudan City is an unavoidable link.
And now that Voldratboye's son Rudboye is dead, if he marries his daughter, Miss Katia, then the couple will essentially become the first heirs to the city of Kudan.
By then, as soon as Voldratboye dies, Aix will be able to legally control the city of Kudan and expand the territory without bloodshed, without encountering collective opposition from the kingdom's aristocracy.
Therefore, almost all the leaders agreed to the marriage proposed by King Yarogelk. Even the female leaders of Desevi were unhappy, but they only expressed their silent protest with silence.
After all, after the male leaders analyzed the pros and cons, they, as vested interests, had to admit that this marriage was a good thing for the future development of the territory.
However, the real owner, their lord Axboye, did not agree with the marriage.
First of all, Axe has always regarded Miss Tsuna as his wife. Although he has several women, if he really wants to get married, he is still willing to choose from these women. After all, as a person from the original world, he always insists that marriage must have an emotional foundation.
Secondly, he had a grudge against Voldratboye, and was unwilling to marry the daughter of an enemy. Wouldn't that be like placing a time bomb next to his pillow? Wouldn't he be able to live a comfortable life in the future?
Secondly, just because he burned half of Kudan City, Voldratboye would not agree to this marriage for the sake of his face. Even if the leaders were in favor of this matter, he could not put his warm face in front of the cold butt of his enemy Voldratboye. A time traveler also needs to save face.
But he once again underestimated the bottom line of the nobles of that era. Just as he was using this as an excuse to righteously refute the leaders' pleas, using the excuse of maintaining his dignity.
Bandak, however, read out a secret letter he had just received in public, which was sent by Kress, who was hiding in Kudan City. This secret letter slapped him in the face:
'In Kudan City, Voldratboye has agreed to King Yarogerk's suggestion despite the opposition of many people.'
With no other options, Aix had to claim to have a headache and locked himself in the lord's mansion to avoid the leaders' bombardment.
But since it concerned the future interests of the entire leader, how could everyone allow him to be willful? Even Sophia, who was responsible for his daily life and diet, was persuaded to open the bedroom door while delivering meals. The leaders surrounded him who was eating on the bed and kept persuading him earnestly.
In the end, Atiman, who was knowledgeable and worldly-wise, told him that as long as he and Miss Katia gave birth to a legal child, he could still remotely control Kudan Castle even if he divorced Miss Katia and married Miss Tsuna.
Aix was quite moved by what he said, and thought: "Is this okay? I really won't sacrifice my looks for the sake of the development of the territory?"
Soon, Tangquan Fortress also replied to King Yarogelk, and Aixboye also agreed to the marriage.
