I picked up the dragon girl at the beginning and I used artillery fire to liberate the other world

The number of nobles in the rough wooden cages decreased one by one, but through the gaps between the wood it was clear to see that they were all hanged on the gallows without exception.

This also made Nietzsche and Avril, father and daughter, even more desperate. It was obvious that Bai Yan had no intention of letting them go.

"It's your turn."

As the chains of the cage were opened, two soldiers escorted Nietzsche and Avril to the gallows.

The heavy iron shackles on his feet collided with each step, and the bells rang.

The bright sunlight shone on their bodies, making it difficult for them to open their eyes.

"Now, the trial of the two begins! Those who have been wronged should cry out for justice, and those who have been vengeful should seek revenge!"

Edward shouted as usual, he had already lost hope.

There were more than 120 people, all of whom were oppressors of their subjects and murderers. The condemnation from the audience never stopped.

Avril's hands were hung by chains, and her toes could barely reach the ground.

There was a little rust on Baizhi's skin. She looked lifeless and empty-eyed as she stared at the dark crowd below. The cold sweat on her body made her dizzy.

"It's Master Nietzsche!"

"And his daughter, Councillor Elvy!"

When the two were brought onto the stage, there was an immediate commotion among the densely packed crowd.

"Mr. Nietzsche is a good man! Please show some leniency!"

"That's right, Master Nietzsche has also helped my old man with his medical treatment!"

"Yes, yes, and Miss Avril, last time I fell down, it was she who helped me up!

The young lady often gives out porridge to the public, and I don’t know how many lives she has saved.”

Listening to the admiration of the crowd for herself and her father, Avril finally forced a smile. Although she knew she probably wouldn't survive, she didn't feel that her life had been lived in vain.

But looking at the bloodstained gallows, she couldn't stop shaking.

Being hanged must be very painful, right?

Edward listened quietly to the admiration of the people in the audience, and saw that the faces of Nietzsche and his daughter finally relaxed a little.

Finally, we found two people who can be useful to His Majesty Bai Yan.

Avril narrowed her eyes slightly and noticed the fat old man walking towards her, but she felt relieved.

When people face death, they tend to become calm, especially when you know that you are going to die.

She just looked quietly at the fat old man with a wretched face, but the chain on her wrist suddenly loosened, and her toes were able to touch the ground completely.

My whole body felt completely comfortable at this moment, and there was no feeling of restraint anymore.

Is this to allow oneself to die with dignity?

Avril looked at the gallows and was about to walk over when she heard: "I'm sorry, young lady, you are not guilty, you are still free."

For a moment, Avril and her father Nietzsche felt like there was something wrong with their ears, so much so that they heard words that they would never hear in their dreams.

"What did you say?" Nietzsche's voice trembled. Maybe his daughter could really survive?

"You and your daughter are innocent. We have arrested the wrong people." Edward also stepped forward and took the iron chain off Nietzsche. "Someone will take you two to dinner later. Have a good rest. I will take you to see His Majesty Bai Yan in the evening."

When they saw Nietzsche and Avril being released, the huge crowd of people in the audience burst into cheers.

After such a public trial, I'm afraid these people will like Bai Yan more than Servis.

Some people are born to be leaders.

. . .

In the smoke-filled wooden barrel, Avril buried her body in the water, leaving only her small upturned nose and a pair of light green gem-like eyes exposed.

The warm water surrounded her, making her feel as if she were in a dream.

It turns out that you don’t have to die, and there don’t seem to be any restrictions.

For a moment, she became curious about Bai Yan, the third prince.

Although we often hear in the royal capital how he bullied people, sneaked into the house of a minister's wife tonight, and went to a casino tomorrow night.

But she seemed to have never seen what this person looked like, and from what she saw today, this Bai Yan was seriously inconsistent with the appearance in the rumors.

Yu Mutong stood up, and Avril revealed her curvaceous figure. Crystal clear water droplets as big as beans dotted her fair skin, which was a little rosy.

She dried herself off and changed into an evening gown.

It was not until after seven in the evening that someone came to inform her that she was going to see His Majesty.

When she walked outside the palace, she found her father already waiting for her outside.

"Father, did you just come out?"

"Yes, my dear daughter, His Majesty is a very kind person, you can go in without worry, maybe His Majesty will give you a position."

Nietzsche looked at his daughter with a smile on his face, as if something great had happened.

"Well, I see."

Avril nodded, took a deep breath, and walked in slowly.

Entering the palace hall, Avril saw from afar a man sitting high on the throne, leaning over something.

As she got closer, the man's figure became clearer in her eyes.

His black hair looked a little sloppy, and he looked a little thin. He was leaning over the long table in front of him, holding a pen and writing something.

Avril walked to a distance in front of the throne and stood there quietly waiting. Looking at the boy who looked younger than herself, she felt relieved and stared at him.

Finally, the young king on the throne finished his work. He slowly raised his head and yawned.

At the same time, Avril finally saw the young king's appearance clearly, and her eyes widened in surprise for a moment.

Contrary to the stereotype that she had expected the king to be ugly and wretched, the one on the throne was...too handsome.

Avril was stunned for a moment by Bai Yan's appearance. Only when Bai Yan called her "Hello" did she lower her head in panic.

"Don't be afraid, I won't eat you."

Bai Yan chuckled twice and continued, "What's your name?"

Avril's face flushed slightly, and after a moment she looked up at Bai Yan and said softly, "Your Majesty, my name is Avril."

"Well, then Avril, do you want to be an official?"

"Be an official? Your Majesty, women cannot be officials." Avril showed some curiosity. This Majesty Bai Yan was indeed very different.

"Now I'm the king. If I say you can do it, you can do it, and you will be a very high-ranking official." Bai Yan laughed twice, stood up and walked to a place not far in front of Avril.

Avril blinked, looking a little silly and cute, "How big is it?"

“As you know, the dukes of Chaoyang Territory and Xiongshi Territory are both dead, but someone has to take charge.

So, can you do it?"

"What?!" Avril exclaimed, "You, you want to make me a duke? I, I can't do that."

“No, it’s not the Duke. From now on, this is no longer Aixash, but the Baiyan Empire, and there are no dukes or earls in the Baiyan Empire.

I want you to be governor!"

"Governor?"

“Yes, you only have administrative power, which cannot be inherited, no fiefdom, and no military power.

But other than that, you are the most powerful person.”

Bai Yan took some effort to explain it to Avril, and also gave her a new map.

"I am currently dividing the Baiyan Empire into twelve provinces. I just don't know which one you would like to choose?"

Avril looked at the exquisite parchment map and was so nervous that she was speechless for a moment.
