The issue of contracting sales of the road construction and the Shuntong Chamber of Commerce was not opposed to the other cities after Joshua agreed to implement it.

Opposition means being unable to get along with money.

Now all the city lords have benefited, and are eagerly waiting for Shangjiang City and Jiading City to contribute money and work to lead everyone to a well-off life. The seven sub-cities have never been caring with Shangjiang City like this, so Daliang struck while the iron was hot and told the real purpose of this imperial meeting.

"My dear sirs, I believe you already know that the Battle of Eternal Night City occurred in the Kingdom of Death.

Yunzhongcheng won a comprehensive victory. The sword of the kind camp has been slashed at the evil camp. The full-scale war will definitely break out in a short period of time.

As the rulers of Shangjiang City-State, we have the obligation to take our subjects through this catastrophe.

And in the midst of war, we need a leader, a man who unites us. But King Howard, who is most qualified to lead us, cannot stand here.

Therefore, I think it's time for Shangjiang to elect a new king..."

Before Daliang could finish his words, Abigail, who felt betrayed, stood up angrily. She thought that as a human camp, she could gain more benefits from this economic support, but someone wanted to usurp the throne she already held.

"Earl Daliang, please pay attention to your words. My child is also Howard's child, he is the legal and only heir to the throne. The king does not need elections. Anyone who peeps at the throne is the enemy of Shangjiang and will be attacked by everyone!"

Daliang also stood up, walked to the top, and stood behind the vacant throne: "Marquis Abigail, the first thing I want to correct is that... You and King Howard are not legal couples, so your child is not legal, and he is controversial as the heir to the throne."

Abigail said angrily: "My child is royal blood, and there is no dispute about his inheritance of the throne, which Batrit can confirm...

Batterite!

Where is Batterrit? Where is the angel loyal to the royal family!"

At this time, the ministers who attended the imperial meeting discovered that Batrit did not come. Not only did Batrit not come, but the angels under him were also ones who did not come. The angels standing around the conference room were all angels subordinate to the navy.

Looking at the serious-looking Joyce and Stanley with no expression.

Lords finally knew what the Navy and Jiading City were trying to assemble troops.

The Angel Legion has withdrawn from this battle for the throne. The Navy and Jiading City threatened the city lords through economic bribery and military threats. Then what Earl Daliang has to do next is to deny the legitimacy of the children in Abigail's belly to inherit the throne.

There is really a legality problem with the inheritance rights of Abigail's children.

It's even a little disgraceful.

Before seeing Batrit, Abigail also realized that this imperial meeting was targeting him from beginning to end.

Daliang said at this time: "Marquis Abigail, I admit that the child in your belly is the child of King Howard, but he is an illegitimate child. He must be closer to this throne than us, but definitely not the closest one.

Lord Joyce was the crown prince appointed by the former king and completed the engagement ceremony with King William. Although King William had passed away, their engagement was still there. As King William's fiancée, the quasi-queen queen of Shangjiang City, Lord Joyce should be a little closer to this throne than your child.

Dear adults…”

Daliang took out the crown and placed it on the throne, and continued, "I have been authorized by King Howard to hand over the crown to those who can lead Shangjiang through the crisis.

Lord Joyce has the right to inherit the throne, and she has proved her ability to lead the city with her actions.

When the war is about to break out, are you willing to hand over your destiny to Lord Joyce and to an unborn child?

Please make your choice carefully.”

"I object!" Abigail slapped the table and scolded loudly: "Joyce, you bitch, you are not qualified to inherit the throne. Daliang, I married my daughter to you, and I trust you so much and value you, you actually betray me. All adults, don't be deceived by these two adulterous men and women. If you let Joyce inherit the throne, this city will fall into Daliang's hands!"

"Enough, Abigail!" Joyce stood up: "Don't slander the reputation of the two nobles casually, that would damage your identity. Although Earl Daliang is the fiancee of King William to increase my competitiveness with the throne. But my engagement with William has always made me feel pain.

Therefore, I invite all the adults to give a testimony here.

I declare that from now on, I have come into contact with King William and I will no longer have any relationship with the royal family.

But as a nobleman of this city, I have the responsibility and ability to protect it. Now I need to become king, so I will become king.

If peace can alternate royal power, I hope we can reach an agreement at this meeting.

If war is needed to replace the king's power, then I will declare war to oppose me and give people to them."

Joyce responded to becoming king and his power was revealed.

The venue was quiet, and even Abigail didn't say anything anymore.

Everyone looked at Joyce, Daliang, and the crown that shone brightly on the throne.

At this time, Daliang secretly kicked Marquis Stanley sitting next to the throne.

Marquis Stanley immediately responded: "Jiading City supports Joyce as our new king. My army and my money are ready. Which one I want depends on your choice."

+1

Immediately afterwards, the Chancellor of the Chancellor of the Exchequer Marquis Wilson said: "I support Joyce as our new king. I know everything she has done for Shangjiang. There is no better choice than her."

+2

Marquis Wilson made a statement, and other human ministers also supported Joyce.

+3,+4,+5…

The city lords looked at Joshua. If anyone in this conference room could see through the hidden things, it would definitely be Joshua. Joshua's choice was also the most beneficial to the sub-cities.

The most beneficial thing to the deputy city is definitely the children who support Abigail. Abigail has a strong desire for power. If her child is king, she will definitely hold all the rights in her own hands. Abigail has a high vision and low skills, but he has no ability to manage Shangjiang City.

At that time, Shangjiang would definitely return to a state of chaos.

Joshua is an elf and he has time to wait for the next chance to become king.

However, Joyce's general trend of becoming king has come true. Even though he brought many city lords here to oppose it, when the war began, Daliang only needed to send people to ask each city...

"Can your road be repaired? Can you still sell the hoarded goods?"

It is estimated that half of the cities will turn against each other.

The remaining cities have no strength to compete with Shangjiang City and Jiading City.
