Lord: Marry the villain's daughter at the beginning?

Chapter 312 Entering the City

The army from the North arrived, and Cliff didn't even have time to pack his clothes or wipe the blood off his clothes, and he brought a group of people to the gate of the royal capital.

This was also Linde's first time in the royal capital. To Linde, the capital was not grand, but it was much bigger than he had imagined.

Lena followed Lind, her eyes unclear as to whether she was nostalgic or sighing.

"Governor of the North, thank you for your help. You are a hero of the kingdom and you deserve it!"

Cliff's tone was quite excited.

The mighty Northern Army, with their guns at the ready, followed Lind and Lena directly into the capital. Cliff, behind the gate of the capital, brought along all the people he could, hunched over and greeted Lind with a big smile on his face.

When Cliff, now middle-aged, smiles, his face is full of wrinkles, but anyone can see that Cliff's smile is sincere, and this feeling of surviving a disaster cannot be acted out.

Cliff carefully observed Lind in the middle of the army. Indeed, he had some similarities with Her Majesty the Queen in his features. It seemed that what Claire said was not groundless.

But Lind seemed even more serious and silent, or perhaps he was in a bad mood.

That’s right, Linde is in a bad mood now. Your sister threw herself into your arms in a mess and said that she was bullied. No one would be in a good mood.

Facing Cliff's eager smile, the flattery of the surrounding royal nobles, and the atmosphere of calling for the kingdom's hero, Lind was not moved at all, but asked coldly: "Where is Claire?"

Hearing this question, the nobles around suddenly fell silent, leaving only the common people cheering, while Cliff's cold sweat was already running down his forehead.

"He has been detained by my people now."

Judith stood up and spoke directly to Lind without giving any face to Augustine and others.

Linde continued to nod silently. No one knew what Linde wanted to do.

"Brother, why don't we just forget it?"

Lilith pulled at the corner of Linde's military uniform. At this time, Lilith had changed her clothes and no longer had the temperament of a queen. Instead, she followed Linde like a little girl.

It was only after Lilith spoke that Cliff and everyone else noticed that Her Majesty the Queen had returned with the Governor of the North.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty!"

Judith excitedly bowed to Lilith and knelt on the spot. After Judith's reminder, the people around her noticed the petite queen following Linde, and they all knelt down following Judith. Although because Lilith was behind Linde, it was a little unclear who they were kneeling to.

Cliff, on the other hand, shrank back in embarrassment. He could neither stand nor kneel.

"Forget it, forget it. Just forget it every time. That's why you get bullied, you know?! If someone hits you once, you have to hit them back ten times, and even slap their dog twice. That way no one will bully you, you know?"

Linde directly lifted Lilith up and gave her a lecture in a physical sense, which made the kneeling nobles even more at a loss. Her Majesty the Queen was lifted up by the Governor of the North without any dignity at all.

But no one dared to ask what the relationship between the Governor of the North and Her Majesty the Queen was, especially after Lind said, "Even his dog should be slapped," the Augustines shivered unconsciously.

After teaching his sister a lesson, Lind said to the person behind him, "Send someone to take over the city defense."

Flora, who was following behind Lind, came out and took away part of the army behind.

This time they came in a hurry, and the generals under Lind didn't have time to come back, leaving only the guards.

No one had any objection to Lind bypassing Cliff to take over the defense of the royal capital. Even if Lind did not mention it, Cliff and the nobles would have begged Lind to take over the defense, or in other words, the defense of the royal capital was no longer meaningful to Lind.

Cliff smiled awkwardly and explained to Linde what had happened in the palace before, and led Linde and others towards the palace.

Lilith seemed to sense something and looked towards the central church with concern. Linde looked at Lilith with a worried look on her face and said, "Go ahead, leave this to me."

After hearing Cliff and Judith's description of what happened in the palace, Lind had already made arrangements in his mind. Legally speaking, although Cliff's coronation was very hasty, Lilith was indeed no longer the queen, which helped Lind solve many problems.

Lena followed Lind and looked around at the changes in the capital. Perhaps because they had just experienced a great battle to defend the city, the interior of the capital seemed even more chaotic than when Lena left. Except for the towering Northern Obelisk that had not yet been built, there were almost no changes in other places.

Among the nobles who accompanied her, there were many people whom Reina was familiar with.

These people looked at Reina in different ways, some were envious, others were hostile, but most of the nobles who had nothing to do with Reina were full of curiosity.

Most of the Augustines did not follow Cliff to the top of the city wall to resist. They almost all chose to hide in the palace. For Cliff and Judith, they had already done their best by not letting these people come out to cause trouble.

When these Augustines heard the sound of artillery fire outside the city at first, they were still worried, but when they saw Cliff, Judith and others leading the army back to the palace, they happily welcomed them in the hall. After all, no one really wanted to be a slave of a conquered country. Although these Augustines had planned to sell Capet for a good price, they would also be happy that the capital was actually defended.

Whether it's sincere or they think they can sell it for a better price.

However, when these Augustines saw the Northern Army and Lind following Cliff, the expressions on their faces became complicated. After seeing Lena following Lind, their faces drooped even more.

There were many Augustines who had made things difficult for Reina and sent her away.

When he arrived at the hall, Cliff became embarrassed again. Looking at the throne, he didn't know whether to sit on it or not.

Although he heard from his father that he did not lose the throne directly in the prophecy, but sat steadily for a while, Cliff looked back at Lind, as if seeking Lind's consent.

"What's the matter, Your Majesty? Won't you sit down?"

Lena followed Linde as if she was unaware of anything. Not only did she call him "Your Majesty", she also asked Cliff why he didn't sit on the throne. Although she figured out what happened along the way, from Lena's perspective, she really felt that she and Linde came simply to help the capital. Since the capital already had a legitimate new king, the new king should naturally sit on the throne.

Many royal families and nobles gasped and looked at Reina in horror. It seemed that Reina still had no political intelligence at all, just like when she left the capital.

Linde's face was calm and the people in the hall could not tell what Linde was thinking from his expression.

"Your Majesty, please take a seat."

Finally, Lind spoke.
