Chapter 445: Fighting Village Wars, I am a Professional 14
After several years of recuperation, the country of Ampura has undergone tremendous changes.
Scarlett is married, and the groom is an unexpected choice.
Virgil Gallup, a man who could have been a king, but his happy home was taken away by Nancy.
Nancy didn't know when they fell in love with each other, but when Scarlett Johansson shyly expressed her intention to marry Virgil in front of her, Nancy showed nothing but respect and blessing.
After all, among so many princes, only Virgil could see past it.
Scarlett did not marry into the family, but married Virgil.
This means that Scarlett gave up her position as crown princess and voluntarily gave the position of future king to Nancy.
"Nancy, you are more suitable to be the king of Ampura than me!"
Scarina said to Nancy seriously in front of everyone.
Nancy nodded and calmly took over the position of crown prince.
She was not a saint, and she had no foolish idea of becoming a regent instead of a king.
Just like that, everyone knew that Nancy had been replaced as the crown prince of Ampura, and everyone became more motivated to work.
They are ignorant, stupid and uncultured, but at least they know who will make their lives better if they become king.
When King Billu knew that his son was going to marry Scarlett, he was so happy that he kept praising Virgil for his achievements.
Even if Scarlett gave up the throne, she is still a member of the royal family, and her family is royal relatives!
Nancy treated the surrendered kings very well. Although she did not give them real power, she took good care of them and did not cut off the channels for their descendants to advance.
Nancy wasn't trying to be egalitarian here.
When food and clothing become a problem, freedom and human rights are just empty words.
Nancy didn't intend to take such a big step. Everything has to be done slowly.
However, even if it is done slowly, the strength of the Ampura Kingdom is increasing at a speed that amazes others.
The military strength alone is enough to scare the enemy.
However, it is always better to have a conflict with Celtic later.
Therefore, when faced with the arrogant demands of the envoys sent from the Celtic Royal City, Nancy did not lose her temper on the spot, but just smiled and asked someone to treat the envoys well.
Then she used money to pave the way and bribed the greedy messenger.
"Sir, our country of Ampula has just been stabilized. We simply cannot afford to pay triple the taxes to the royal court. Please go back and explain it to us!"
Leopold came forward in person, held the envoy's hand and cried about how difficult it was to get here. He also "accidentally" showed the envoy a box of gold coins behind him and a tray with exquisite porcelain.
Yes, Nancy brought out the china Sue.
Although this porcelain is not very exquisite due to reasons such as climate, soil humidity, it is already a great gift for a small figure like the envoy.
With the porcelain in front of him, the envoy's eyes were fixed on this rare treasure, and he didn't even glance at the gold coins.
As soon as porcelain from an unknown place appeared, it quickly became popular in this land, and the nobles were proud to own a piece of porcelain.
"Sir, I saved a traveling merchant by chance, and he gave me this porcelain as a reward. There is only one of its kind in the entire East, so please accept it!" Leopold said sincerely.
The messenger subconsciously looked around and indeed did not find the second piece of porcelain in the palace.
Nancy: It’s expensive to make, not very refined and easily broken. Out!
The envoy thought that coming to this "remote place" would be a difficult task, but he did not expect to gain such a reward. He agreed on the spot and said that he would definitely speak well of the Ampra Kingdom.
The host and the guest got along well and both sides were very satisfied.
After sending the messenger away, Leopold asked Nancy, "Child, can he help us achieve our goal?"
Nancy nodded. "Yes. Hans said Quincy Geoffrey is the brother of the king's favorite mistress. He usually does things for the king that cannot be revealed to outsiders. Although his position is not high, he is deeply trusted. With his intercession, it should be possible."
Quincy Jeffrey was the messenger.
Sure enough, not long after, the Kingdom of Ampura received the second edict.
Not only did it state that taxes would remain the same, it also acknowledged the legitimacy of the current territory of the Ampura Kingdom.
At the same time, the king also commended the Ampura Kingdom for its "contribution" to the stability of the eastern region and said that the Ampura Kingdom could also act at its own discretion in the future.
Nancy didn't expect that this crudely made porcelain could bring such great benefits. She became excited and asked the craftsmen to continue improving the firing of the porcelain.
With this edict from the Celtic royal city, Nancy acted more boldly.
Gradually, the territory of the Ampra Kingdom grew larger and larger, but because it had "connections in the court", it had never attracted any attention.
In this way, Nancy developed in a subtle way, quietly accumulating strength, and silently eroding the surrounding territory.
Leopold had been injured on the battlefield before, and as he grew older, he was unable to handle state affairs.
So, after another year's harvest day, Leopold officially abdicated and handed power to Nancy.
Nancy becoming the real person in power in this country actually had little impact on her.
After all, when she was the crown princess, she already had "all-powerful power". Her father's royal seal was in her hands, and no one would stop her from doing whatever she wanted.
However, it is always good for Nancy to have more legitimacy.
This continent is not peaceful. The prestige of the Celtic royal court is declining with each generation. In other places far away from the country of Ampura, wars are endless.
On Scarlett's daughter's fifteenth birthday, Nancy received news that a rebellion had broken out in the Celtic royal court.
At the same time, Quincy Jeffrey's letter arrived.
The letter expressed the hope that the Kingdom of Ampura would send troops to help the king quell the rebellion.
Over the years, Nancy has given Quincy Jeffrey a lot of things, making the expansion of Ampula extremely smooth.
After receiving the letter for help, Nancy immediately reorganized her troops, temporarily handed over domestic affairs to Prince Scarlett, and then personally led her troops to "rescue".
However, the country of Ampura is located in a remote area, and it will definitely take a lot of time to walk all the way to the Celtic royal court. It is reasonable to delay it by a year, a half, three to five years, right?
Besides, how could such a good country allow a team to pass through so casually?
If the other party does not let them pass, Ampura will definitely have to take some special measures to make them "willingly" let them pass.
Then, the kings of these countries were influenced by the "love and peace" means of the Ampura Kingdom and "voluntarily" donated their land and became part of the Ampura Kingdom. This is also reasonable, right?
Everything is for the Celtic royal court and for the king. Everyone can understand, right?
In this way, Nancy led the army and "conquered people with virtue" all the way. It took her three full years to finally overcome numerous "difficulties" and arrive at the Celtic royal court.
