Forced Bride Of The Vampire Lord

Chapter 432

“You are redistributing the powers among nobles and even including commoners?” they all looked with shock towards hazel when their eyes soon moved to Rafael who was sitting there silently.

This vampire! He had offered them a lot of power, wealth and status in exchange of the votes they had given in the favor of hazel instead of duke.

Rafael was famous for his words then what in the world was happening now?

No! They have to keep their calm. Maybe it was a ruse so that the change sounded fair. They did not care if a few foolish commoners would get a small title like baron of the distant lands if they would be able to gain much higher from the offer.

They took a deep breath and claimed their jittery nerves when Hazel nodded her head.

“Yes, I want the power to be decentralized. Since the empire is so big, the commoners find it difficult to approach the royal palace and the power among nobles is not distributed properly. I want to balance everything.” she said with a serious look on her face that everyone looked at her with a solemn face.

“But..”

Many nobles nodded their heads with a look of satisfaction on their faces after hearing her.

At least the women knew her place and would not create trouble for them without giving her a lecture.

If that was how she was going to rule, then it would not be that bad.

Their faces glimmered with greed as they looked at her when a large smile bloomed on her face while her eyes looked at them slyly.

“So to start.. I want to announce that lord Luhan, would get the right over the south part of the land over three towns where his men would shift and rule freely but there were going to be visits from the royal family from time to time to make sure that the powers were not misused!” she said when Luhan stood up and bowed his head.

It meant that she was giving a free place where only witches would live. So that they could live freely without hiding their powers.

“I know that a few arrangements would be needed. Feel free to contact me later for that.” with a smile the man nodded as he sat back on her seat.

Many looked at him with envy but they knew it might have happened since Celina and Luhan had supported Hazel since the start.

“Next lady Celina.. Since she is so much interested in social work, I will make her the head of the charity work done by the royal palace. She could organize functions and charity events and fundraising programs and manage that fund freely.

But an audit by the royal family would be done every three months.”

“…..” many gasped. It meant all the powers to take decisions of funds.. If the power would have been with them.. Their faces started to turn better. There must be something better for them in the bag, or they would not let it go.

They still looked at her as if she owed them millions of gold coins she had taken by burning the black market completely.

“Joshua.. The man who had helped in cleaning the black market and his group of commoner friends would get the right to start a new market at the place of black market making sure that it is a place of fair trade.

The council would be the one to keep a check on their activities from time to time. Since they are not here, a notice must be sent to them as soon as possible..”

“Next..” the nobles kept fidgeting in their seats.

It had been three hours since Hazel was distributing the powers and rights of lands.

From small fiefs to the strong financial management, she had distributed most of it but none of them had gotten anything yet. Their faces were going red with rage and impatience when she finally called them.

“In the end, Marquis Habergard.. The one who helped me in winning by four votes of his and his vassal family. I am promoting him to the position of duke.” the chest of the man swelled and finally he raised his head with arrogance.

Though he did not get more fief or land but it was fine, if he would be the duke, his powers would grow exponentially.

He would be able to gain more taxes and more authority. Ha! At least the girl had some brain and conscience.

He nodded his head…

“But the lands of the cities were already divided and there is no area to grant him duchy.. So to keep his interest in mind.. I am giving him the duchy of northern region that had been under my name since my marriage.”

“………..” has landed on her name since her marriage. That was a joke everyone in the empire knew.

Since a princess could not be sent with empty hands when she was going to be empress of another empire, her father gave her frozen and barren lands where surviving was impossible as dowry.

It was to mock her life and her future but now..

“What do you mean by that?” the marquis banged the table with his fist as he glared at Hazel who blinked as if she did not understand the reason of commotion.

“What happened marquis? Do you not want to be the duke or do you want me to force other nobles to give their land to you so that you did not need to leave for the northern region?” she asked with a bit of exasperation as if she was shocked by his sudden fit.

“There there! It is not right to ask for other properties is it? You should be honored that I gave you mine.”
