Reincarnated as a boss tyrant in the game

The Province of Volk, the largest of the central provinces, boasts vast lands and abundant resources, known as "Eastern Forests and Western Mines, Southern Agriculture and Northern Pastures." Its grasslands, forests, and per capita arable land rank first in the entire empire, while its metal reserves lead the empire. It is also the empire's largest grassland pastoral area.

It preserves the empire's most intact grasslands, with over seventy percent of the empire's warhorses originating from here, earning it the titles of "Kingdom of Pasture, Ocean of Song, and Homeland of Wine."

When Soren heard that the Clodo family was actually demanding the Harun family's six and a half million acres of pasture, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Haha, whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad! The Clodo family is truly beyond saving this time." Soren's laughter echoed in the villa's training hall, filled with mockery and disdain.

Soren's sudden outburst of laughter startled Corena and Yasso, who looked at Soren in confusion, their faces filled with question marks.

"Royal Brother, what exactly is wrong with the Clodo family?" Yasso couldn't help but ask curiously, wanting to explore the reason behind it.

Soren shook his head, not directly answering Yasso's question. He lightly kicked Yasso's rear, urging, "Stop trying to slack off and practice your swordsmanship properly."

Yasso rubbed the kicked area with some dissatisfaction, muttering as he picked up his sword and began practicing again.

Soren turned around, putting on a gentle smile, and said to Corena, "Corena, you've been practicing for a long time, you should take a proper rest. Combining work and rest is the best way to improve your strength."

Corena nodded, obediently stepping aside to rest. Yasso protested with some dissatisfaction, "Royal Brother, I've also been practicing for a long time!"

"You practice for an hour and slack off for thirty minutes," Soren ruthlessly exposed him. "Practice again for me until you can truly be focused and persevere."

Yasso sighed helplessly and could only continue practicing his swordsmanship. Soren once again turned his attention to the Clodo family's affairs.

This time, even Emperor Gustav personally paid attention to the turmoil in the refined salt market.

The reason was not just the involvement of huge sums of money, but also the Jelas pasture of the Harun family in the Province of Volk.

Jelas Pasture, this name carries profound significance. It is not only the name of the Empress Mother, but the pasture was also a precious gift given to the Harun family by the founding Emperor, the Holy Braga the Great, to welcome the Empress Mother.

This pasture not only represents the Harun family's largest industry but also symbolizes the imperial Braga family's deep gratitude to the Harun family.

Now, the Clodo family actually dared to set their sights on this sacred land, which is undoubtedly a blatant provocation to the imperial family.

Emperor Gustav angrily slammed the table, "The Clodo family is really going too far!"

His anger stemmed not only from the Clodo family's greed but also from the possibility that this turmoil could damage his reputation.

The Empress Mother had just passed away. If the Harun family's Jelas Pasture were to be taken away at this time, how would the other nobles of the empire view the imperial family, how would they view him, Gustav?

Empress Elizabeth also cursed the Clodo family in her heart for being blinded by greed. She knew that Emperor Gustav valued his reputation the most, but the Clodo family wanted to ruin the emperor's reputation at this time, which was undoubtedly digging their own graves.

Empress Elizabeth softly advised, "Your Majesty, please calm your anger. The outcome of this turmoil has not yet been truly decided, and the plain salt we are about to launch is also ready to enter the market. It is not advisable to directly intervene in the refined salt market at this time. If the Clodo family really dares to attack Jelas Pasture, it will not be too late for you to strike them with thunderous force." Her voice was gentle and firm, pointing out a wise path for Emperor Gustav.

Emperor Gustav took a deep breath, and the anger in his chest gradually subsided. He decided to hand this matter over to Royal Concubine Nina, wanting to see how this clever and wise royal concubine would deal with this turmoil.

"Humph, inform Royal Concubine Nina of this matter," Emperor Gustav said coldly. "Let's see how she handles this matter."

Empress Elizabeth nodded in agreement and immediately sent someone to pass the message to Royal Concubine Nina.

After hearing this news, Royal Concubine Nina was so shocked that she almost dropped the cup in her hand. The anger in her heart was indescribable. If Royal Consort Wenna hadn't stopped her in time, she probably would have rushed out of the palace to find Tiriel to settle the score.

"These two troublesome fools!" Royal Concubine Nina sat back in her chair and couldn't help but curse.

Royal Consort Wenna also looked troubled and said, "Have someone notify them not to have any designs on Jelas Pasture, or it will arouse His Majesty's fury."

At the same time, Royal Concubine Mariasha also received the news. She was unexpectedly calm, but the anger hidden in her eyes was undeniable, causing the palace servants to be on tenterhooks, as if walking on thin ice.

At this tense moment, the next night, a fire suddenly broke out in Nina Palace.

The fire came from an unknown source, directly landing in the left side palace of Nina Palace.

The fire instantly ignited the entire side palace, the flames soaring into the sky, turning half the sky red.

People ran around in panic, shouting, maids, servants, and palace guards desperately fighting the fire. However, the fire became more and more fierce, as if it would devour the entire Nina Palace.

Finally, the palace mage corps took action to extinguish the fire, which only destroyed one side palace.

This sudden fire plunged the entire palace into chaos. People speculated about the cause and motives behind the fire. This fire also added a layer of storm to the already extremely tense turmoil.

Emperor Gustav rubbed his temples in anger, the harem's strife making him feel extremely annoyed.

At this moment, a female chief attendant hurried forward, requesting the Emperor and Empress to go to Amber Palace immediately.

Gustav and Elizabeth exchanged a glance, a trace of gravity flashing in their eyes. They immediately realized that this matter might be no small matter.

When they arrived at Amber Palace, the scene before them made their hearts sink.

Royal Concubine Mariasha knelt on the ground, her face as cold as ice, showing no emotion.

"Your Majesty!" A dignified voice broke the silence: "Mariasha set the fire in Nina Palace. What do you say should be done?"

As soon as these words came out, Gustav only felt his head ache even more.

The news of the Clodo family eyeing Jelas Pasture had reached the Empress Dowager's ears.

Empress Elizabeth took a deep look at Royal Concubine Mariasha, secretly admiring her decisiveness and courage.

In such a situation, it takes great courage to do such a thing. Isn't she afraid of being thrown into the abandoned palace for such behavior?
