Chapter 5

His Majesty's face was a little ugly, but Baron Trevor was right, and he was clearly thinking of him. He didn't even have a proper reason to be angry, but he had to smile.

Seeing gray looking at him calmly, he also knew that today's matter could not be solved by being an earl.

He didn't want to grant the Marquis to gray, but the country has only so many territories and so many nobles. If it is granted more, the king's authority will be threatened, which he and even every king can't tolerate.

Besides, it's good to be an earl for saving the princess. It's not enough to be a marquis.

The reason why gray thinks he should get more is that the king himself promised that whoever rescued the princess can marry the princess, and this promise is no different from clearly telling him I want to give the throne to you, so being a king is a collateral reward for marrying the king's only princess, not the credit for saving the princess.

In contrast, gray naturally did not want to be dismissed as a mere earl.

The king has to consider many factors and is unwilling and unable to give more. Naturally, the contradiction arises.

"Felia has been captured by the dragon for ten years and has been imprisoned in the castle. She can only see the ferocious dragon every day. She has been tortured physically and mentally. She fell ill as soon as she came back last night. The doctor said she needed to rest. I'm afraid her marriage with count Gray will be postponed." The king explained, his eyes very firm, as if that was really the case.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. I'm not only the most powerful knight in the Kingdom, but also the best doctor in the kingdom. No matter what disease Princess filia has, I'm sure to cure her!" Gray said confidently.

"You say you are the best doctor in the kingdom?" The king was surprised. When did you learn medicine? Last night?

"Yes, if you don't believe it, your royal highness can ask Dr. Anderson to confront me. I defeated him in medical skills not long ago, but I was low-key, so I didn't publicize it!" Gray smiled. "He also gave me a flag and said I was a master of medicine!"

“······”

Everyone knows that gray is full of nonsense, but what can they do? When you don't hear it, your majesty is talking nonsense anyway. It depends on which one of them is better!

The king shook his head. He couldn't really call Dr. Anderson. He believed that as long as he did so, gray would climb up the pole, find some moth and ask him to take felia out to treat them.

"In addition to her physical discomfort, felia is also mentally depressed. She has been depressed and can't appear in her best state. It will damage the etiquette and dignity of the royal family!" Said the king with another excuse.

"Your Majesty, that's wrong. I think Princess filia is sick because she has been imprisoned by the dragon for many years and can't contact the living people, so she is depressed.

Only by allowing Princess filia to have more contact with everyone and integrate into human life, can Princess filia get better faster. Moreover, it's best to make her happy for her wedding, so she may get better faster. Her majesty and her royal highness are so concerned about Lord filia and don't want her to be unhappy every day! "

The king was suddenly silent. In fact, even if his daughter swore in the name of the family, he had doubts about whether Gray was a dragon, so he wanted to delay time and observe secretly.

If Gray was really a dragon, he would mobilize all the troops of the Kingdom, catch him unexpectedly and imprison him according to his daughter's wishes.

If not, you can slowly persuade your daughter to recognize the facts. After all, this country also needs heirs. He is old. If your daughter doesn't want to marry, there will be unrest in this country in the future, and then her situation will be more dangerous.

But he didn't expect that gray, who had always obeyed his orders, would be so strong. It was clear that he had made him count, and he didn't directly repent. He just postponed it for a while. He didn't want to.

Thinking of this, there was a trace of anger in the king's eyes, and he was dissatisfied with the young viscount in front of him.

Just as he was thinking about how to find another excuse to put it off, a figure suddenly rushed out of the side, threw himself into the king's arms and cried loudly.

The figure is very fast. If the royal guards didn't have good eyes, they might have shouted that there was an assassin and split her with a sword.

Yes, it was the royal highness of the princess who did not want to marry Gray. When she flew to the king's arms, she burst into tears. "Father, I don't want to marry him. He's really a dragon. I don't want to marry the dragon. Please, father, catch him!"

Although Princess filia was crying, her pronunciation was not vague, and all the nobles present heard it clearly.

Gray finally understood why she didn't want to see herself. It turned out that she had discovered her dragon identity.

However, he was not flustered. An angry expression slowly appeared on his face, and then he tried his best to suppress it. "Princess filia, I tried my best to save you from the dragon. If you don't say thank you, you can't slander me like this!

As everyone knows, I joined the border guard at the age of 12. In the past five years, I have killed countless Warcraft, monsters and bandits. There are traces of survival from small to large. How can I be a dragon? Say I'm a dragon. Who believes it? You believe it? Or do you believe it? Do you believe it? "

In the last few words, gray roared out, and 19 points of spiritual strength was blessed in his voice. Moreover, the murderous spirit accumulated by the killing of Warcraft and bandits in recent years was released without scruples, which shocked everyone's mind. Only a few people with good strength can keep calm.

"No... no... don't believe it!" The people who were stared at by gray spit out a few words, and then wake up. They suddenly blushed and were ashamed. They were so shocked by a boy's words that they really lost the face of the aristocracy.

Even the king, the queen and the princess were all subdued. Princess filia forgot to continue crying for sympathy.

Therefore, this is all slander, and the naked slander is the slander of my personal reputation and all the nobles. Today, the princess can say that I am a dragon. Is it possible that tomorrow barons, viscount, count and even Marquis can be dragon? Just because the royal family needs us to be dragons? " Gray said indignantly.

Where there is order, there are rules. Even the king can't violate some rules unless you are really strong enough to suppress one country.

For the king, he can control his subjects, suppress and balance them, but if he wants to do something, he needs a tenable reason. Otherwise, the rest of the kingdom are in danger and no longer believe in the king's authority, then the country will be over.

Now, gray is holding on to this point. There is no evidence, but he is stigmatized as a dragon. This is the handle handed over by the royal family itself.

What is a dragon? It is burning, killing, looting and abusing. It does all kinds of evil. Everyone in the Kingdom fears and hates the existence. To say this is a great insult to a person and trample on his reputation.

It's like slandering a woman as a witch in the middle ages of Western Europe. In an instant, it can put him opposite everyone's enemy and destroy her life.

Gray said the last sentence, and everyone's eyes changed. Although his words meant to sow discord, the facts did not make much difference. If the royal family could stigmatize a meritorious noble as a dragon, why wouldn't it be them? It's not them now. Will it be them in the future?
