Chapter 14 The Situation Was Extremely Similar
The news of the Rock County soon reached the rose queen's ears.
When the rose queen heard the news, she suddenly had the idea of helping Tom.
Anyway, she didn't mind getting more involved.
Some things might be changed by the things in Rock County.
If so, she could have rebuilt her power through this matter.
Although she was still called the queen, she had no right at all.
No one would listen to her.
The men only listened to her declaration, but would not do as she said.
Rose queen was long for improving the current situation. But she had never had a chance.
Now what happened to Tom gave her a great chance.
"Have you made up your mind? Are you sure you want to take advantage of it?"
The only one who was loyal to the queen was the maid who had been with her all the time.
Unfortunately, she was just a maid, without any power, and could not help the queen at all.
Otherwise, the queen might not be in such a situation.
"Do I have any other choice now? If I don't take advantage of this opportunity, I'm afraid my whole life will be just like this."
The rose queen smiled bitterly and mocked herself.
Now, she didn't think she was a queen at all.
Rose queen?
It was just a puppet controlled by many people.
Before there was a better candidate, she was still needed to stand on the stage in this empire.
But in fact, she was not the one in power.
Knowing her situation, the maid didn't say anything.
"Now I'm just a puppet. Is it wrong for me to take back what belongs to me?"
The rose queen said in a deep voice. A touch of unwillingness appeared in her hollow eyes.
The maid paused. She just wanted the queen to be careful.
Now, these ministers were all disobedient. If they noticed the thoughts of the rose queen, they would be targeted by them.
"Yes, of course. I just hope that the queen can be more careful. Now many ministers are watching us here, and these things can't be spread out!"
The maid explained in a hurry. It was undoubtedly a happy thing for the queen to regain her power.
But she was still very worried about the queen's safety.
If something went wrong because of what she and the queen had said.
She would blame herself.
"Of course, I will pay attention to it. I will take back what I have in the end! No one is allowed to touch it!"
The rose queen had a very strong sense of territory, but she could only condescend to others now.
Now she was just a puppet, and the other empires were monitoring them.
The only good generals she could use had been sent to deal with half-orc.
She had no army to rely on now.
As for Tom's life experience, the queen had thoroughly known it through the spies.
That was why she wanted to help Tom.
Because Tom's situation was the same as hers. She could understand Tom's feelings.
If she helped Tom now, Tom would be grateful to him in the future.
Even if Tom would not be grateful, the queen was determined to help him.
She just wanted to help those who had similar experiences with her.
"Your Majesty, what do you want to do?"
The maid supported the rose queen unconditionally and wanted to know what she would do.
This country was originally owned by the Rose queen. It was normal for her to take back her things.
"Although I want to help Tom, I don't have a good general. So, I have to find another way to help Tom."
The rose queen was still very distressed at this moment. She did not know what to do next.
Tom was in the same situation as her. They endured humiliation and burden just to reach their peak in the future.
"So... Do you have a good idea now?"
The maid asked in a low voice.
She spent a lot of seasons with the queen and was the most loyal person to her.
And the queen also knew this very well. She never felt that what she said was wrong.
Sometimes, she needed this maid to give her advice.
Lookers saw more than players. Only the outsider knew what to do.
"Of course, I have thought about it. Since I don't have a good general to send to him, I will return what should belong to him!"
Unlike others, the queen had no interest in forcible possession.
She might as well take advantage of this opportunity to give Tom everything he deserved.
If she kept it in her hand, she might get herself burned and hurt herself.
Even if she had control of Rock County, it would be useless.
But if Tom got control of Rock County, things would be different.
After hearing what the rose queen said, the maid had already understood what she was going to do.
The maid didn't say anything, nor did she feel anything wrong.
The queen was clear that the ministers would object to her decision.
But this was something that belonged to Tom. No matter how hard they tried, they would never get it.
"As for this matter... Your majesty, you must figure out how to explain it to ministers. Otherwise, they won't agree easily."
The queen nodded. The maid was always straightforward to her. But it was true.
She had made up her mind about this matter.
Since there was a plan to implement, she would never let them dismiss it easily!
A day passed in the blink of an eye.
The rose queen issued an imperial edict, formally bestowing Tom the title, the earl of Rock County.
At the same time, the territory that originally belonged to his father would also belong to Tom.
Hearing the decision made by the queen, all the ministers' faces changed.
"It's ridiculous! Although Rock County is not big, Tom doesn't have any contribution. What qualifications does he have to inherit it?"
"It will be ridiculous if the news is spread out. We can't do that!"
In the morning meeting, the ministers opposed this matter word by word.
All of them didn't agree with this and hoped that the queen could take back her order.
But the queen would not compromise with them so easily.
"Rock County is the territory of Tom's father, and I will hand it over to him sooner or later. I just did it in advance. Do you have any doubts?"
"In other words, when you have an accident, you should give away all the property of the territory that should belong to your heirs?"
The queen said to the ministers with an unquestionable attitude.
For a long time, the rose queen had been under the control of ministers.
Her tone was unique.
