Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

Although it happened at the police station.

However, Kimberly still thoughtfully arranged for someone to keep an eye on Xiao Ce and his group.

So not long after John Jonard left.

Xiao Ce already knew about what had happened over there.

If John Jonard had wanted to collaborate with those two idiots to frame them...

Xiao Ce had also prepared a solution.

Fortunately, John Jonard was much smarter than expected.

He did not cooperate with those two idiots.

It turns out that those two idiots are completely worthless.

Moreover, the fact that the two of them started fighting really surprised Xiao Ce.

After all, these people always considered themselves elegant, and they never expected that a man and a woman, a prince and a princess, would actually fight in the police station.

Moreover, to Xiao Ce's surprise, the two of them had actually encountered such a major incident.

How could the British royal family remain indifferent?

Moreover, Xiao Ce felt that even if the British royal family didn't take action, Targaryen Isa's mother would definitely.

As a result, it was as if both families had gone silent, and there was no news of them.

Even if they wanted to keep the auction of their British Empire's castle a secret, the matter of this gladiatorial contest was a well-known and sensational event in Lingas, known to young and old alike.

Didn't they have a single informant? Xiao Ce still expressed doubt.

The person who came to deliver the news to Xiao Ce at this moment was none other than Jin Haoke.

Seeing Xiao Ce's thoughtful expression, Jin Haoke quickly asked, "Mr. Ce, do you have any questions about this news?"

Xiao Ce first shook his head, then nodded.

Xiao Ce's actions were beyond his comprehension.

Jin Haoke looked at Xiao Ce with a puzzled expression: "Mr. Ce..."

Before Jin Hulk could even ask, Xiao Ce said to him, "Manager Jin, given their situation, one is royalty and the other is nobility. And after the marriage alliance with the royal family, the Targaryen family should be among the top noble families, right? How come, after such a huge commotion, the royal family and the Targaryen family seem to have vanished without a trace…"

After listening to Xiao Ce's words, Jin Haoke smiled and replied, "Mr. Ce, first of all, this information is currently under wraps. Moreover, among the twelve families, this family is one that is not on good terms with the royal family or the Targaryen family."

"Therefore, this family would not take the initiative to report the news to them. Those who lost money would be happy to be torn to pieces and taken away by the police. Those who won money did not care either."

"The main reason is that these two people aren't good people. They bully others by virtue of their power, and even if they don't bully anyone, they still look down on people. Those who are superior to them look down on them. As for those who are inferior to them, they've almost all had conflicts with them..."

"So, in this situation, it's considered dignified if no one kicks them while they're down. As for their servants, they were already at their beck and call, and the servants were treated very harshly. Those people were taken away by a representative of one of the twelve families of the British Empire."

"So, an extremely awkward situation arose. The gladiators were initially worried that the British Empire and the Targaryen family would cause trouble, so the arena staff were very proactive in pushing for the castle auction... However, to everyone's surprise, the process went exceptionally smoothly, and without any prior communication..."

"Because the Lannister navy suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of the British Empire, a huge upheaval has taken place within them. The two of them were just out having fun, so no one paid any attention to them, which is why this happened. In fact, people from all sides have inquired and found that no one in the British Empire knows about this."

"It seems only a few people heard about the gladiatorial combat in Lingas City, which left many penniless while others made a fortune. However, no one knows who the two sides involved were..."

After listening to this, Xiao Ce gained a profound understanding of the meaning of "those who are virtuous will have many supporters, while those who are not will have few."

Jin Haoke thought Xiao Ce would be worried that people from their British Empire would come to their rescue.

So he explained to Xiao Ce, "Mr. Ce, they don't know yet. Once they find out, they'll confirm and send someone over. It will take at least ten days. By then, both of them will be eating in jail."

"Moreover, once the trial is held in the courtroom, it's a done deal. Even if the president of the Illuminati comes, he still has to abide by the rules: either serve his sentence obediently or pay bail."

After hearing Jin Haoke's words, Xiao Ce asked with a look of curiosity, "Bail? You can pay bail?"

Jin Haoke nodded: "That's right, Mr. Ce. In Lingas City, people really feel that money is everything. Although the laws here are very strict, no matter what crime you commit, you can get bail. Of course, the amount isn't cheap, and it's clearly marked. A year's sentence costs one billion soles..."

After listening to Jin Haoke's words, Xiao Ce nodded and said, "It's not that expensive."

Jin Haoke's face twitched as he listened to Xiao Ce's words. After all, if someone else said those words, it was definitely a boast.

And it's true that these words came from Xiao Ce's mouth. His net worth of 30 billion before that duel more than doubled to nearly 70 billion.

It's no exaggeration to say that it's almost impossible for those twelve families to come up with 70 billion Thors all at once... Of course, if they were to raise the money, it would be possible.

Of course, excluding those top families, the money Xiao Ce and his group possessed was absolutely top-tier.

Therefore, it is reasonable for Xiao Ce to say that it is not expensive.

In fact, Xiao Ce has always had this problem: he has no concept of money.

Before he traveled through time, he remembered saying that he hadn't changed his attitude towards money, which resulted in him being ridiculed by netizens at the time.

He really hadn't changed. Even when he transmigrated to the Xiao Kingdom, when he was initially trying to build up his own power, he worried about money, but he managed to solve it with a few methods.

Later, with the joint efforts of Yin Pan'er and the others, Xiao Ce was no longer short of money.

Throughout the journey, he never really grasped the significance of this money.

Xiao Ce smiled at Jin Haoke's expression, knowing he had unconsciously put on a show again.

Xiao Ce knew this was wrong, but many times he couldn't help himself.

"Will their sentences be thirty years each, or will that change?"

Jin Haoke shook his head, then said, "Mr. Ce, it's almost certain that it will be more, not less. Thirty years is the minimum... Of course, it also depends on their attitude in court tomorrow. Actually, if they had contacted their respective families immediately, they might have been able to influence things through various channels. In the end, the actual sentence would only be six months to a year. However, everyone is thinking of kicking them while they're down, so their actual sentences will be very severe..."

"However, 30 billion is probably nothing to their royal family. So, when the royal family and the Targaryen family find out, they will still come to ransom them."

Xiao Ce then asked Jin Haoke.

When Jin Haoke heard that Xiao Ce had no concept of money again, he said, "Mr. Ce, you may be from the Roman Empire, so you are not familiar with the situation here. The British royal family is actually selected from several royal nobles. Before they competed for the throne, they were also various nobles... So, theoretically speaking, they are still families."

"And if they want to control a country and be elected king, they need to spend a lot of money. Even if they can collect some taxes from the country to do things for it, it usually takes more than ten years, or even several decades, to recoup their investment."

"If it's not managed well, for example, if some problems arise during operation, then it may still lose money. So, actually, running a country is like a business. Of course, there are those who do it well, but due to the existence of the Illuminati, the British royal family's business operations are now restricted... So, they are not actually very rich. They may have money, but if you ask them to spend 30 billion to ransom a prince, the king probably won't do it. It depends on whether Prince William's mother and her family are willing to pay the money."

"Of course, they've totaled 60 billion now, including the Princess, and that's the minimum. The exact amount will depend on tomorrow's trial... Moreover, Prince William and Princess Targaryen have really blown this up. Right now, the blame can still be placed on them personally. But if their family, if the royal family, intervenes, those who lost everything betting on this will all come after them..."

"So, Mr. Ce, the most likely outcome here is that they'll abandon these two people. They'll become expendable pawns... After all, rescuing them isn't in their best interest; they've caused them significant losses. If the King of the British Empire knew that their family's prized castle had been destroyed, he would definitely want to kill them..."

As Xiao Ce listened to Jin Haoke say this, he didn't really care about the outcome for those two idiots.

Actually, when they first met at the Gas Hotel, Xiao Ce had already concluded that the two of them were complete idiots, and dealing with them would be a piece of cake.

If Xiao Ce had used his brain even a little more, he would have lost.

Just then, Jin Haoke said, "By the way, Mr. Ce, would you like to watch their trial tomorrow? If those people glance at you even once, they might become enraged and do something outrageous in the courtroom, which will definitely lead to harsher punishments..."

After hearing Jin Haoke's words, Xiao Ce also became interested: "There's this too?"

Jin Haoke nodded: "That's right, if you want to go, you can, but you'll have to pay..."

Although those two are fools, I would still be very willing to make them pay the highest price with the least amount of effort.

Moreover, even though Boudica no longer hated him as much, taking a look at the place would at least make it come to an end.

Xiao Ce thought that if they went to participate in the trial and saw how vulnerable they were, it would be quite a good thing.

As Xiao Ce spoke, he nodded and said to Jin Haoke, "Mr. Jin, okay, everything will be as you say..."

Jin Haoke said to Xiao Ce, "Okay... then I'll get on it!"

Seeing that Jin Haoke was about to leave, Xiao Ce called him back.

"Manager Jin, no rush... I still have some things to ask you."

Xiao Ce was still quite interested in what Jin Haoke said about becoming king of the British Empire.

After all, he seemed to have found a shortcut.

Boudica is Targaryen Boudica; that Targaryen Issa is no match for him. Whatever his motives, the ultimate goal is to restore him to the position of head of the Targaryen family.

Although Boudica may not necessarily be interested, she would certainly be interested if it were beneficial to what they wanted to do in the future.

Seeing Xiao Ce's extremely polite manner, Jin Haoke replied humbly, "Mr. Ce, you're too kind. You could have just asked directly!"

"Manager Jin, do you mean that any family in the British Empire can run for office?" Xiao Ce asked directly, without beating around the bush.

Jin Haoke was very clever; he seemed to understand Xiao Ce's thoughts with just one sentence.

“That’s right. As long as Lady Boudica becomes the head of House Targaryen in the future, she will be eligible to run for election. This election is held every six years. Your timing of returning is quite good; next year will be another election year.”

"I'm not entirely clear on the specifics of this election, but it seems to require support from the public, small families, and local communities... If you're interested, I can help you find out more. However, this is a very expensive undertaking, and one that costs a fortune."

"Moreover, under normal circumstances, the king and his family hold the power. Unless someone does something that extremely incites public outrage, loses the protection of their original powerful family, or for other reasons, no one usually succeeds in being elected. This William family has controlled Britain for thirty years..."

Xiao Ce nodded as he listened: "So, Prince William, their throne isn't hereditary, is it?"

Jin Haoke smiled and nodded: "Of course, although it's hereditary, they still need to be elected..."
