The Council of Nobles, a traditional authority in the Starfall Kingdom.

The biggest feature is that the name is called the noble council, but the largest noble king is absolutely not allowed to participate, and it is controlled by the powerful nobles in the kingdom.

The purpose of this council was to protect the interests of all the nobles in the kingdom, and they were also responsible for mediating when the nobles clashed.

The most important thing was that the parliament, faced with some problems that threatened all the nobility, could unite the otherwise divided aristocratic groups.

For example, the northern barbarian invasion or the king wants to raise taxes.

Especially when the king wanted to raise taxes, the resistance of the noble council was the fiercest, and there were even cases where the parliament tried to send assassins to assassinate the king to prevent the tax increase.

It is precisely because of the existence of the noble council that every king of the Starfall Kingdom will not mention anything about taxes, as long as these nobles can pay the originally stipulated taxes.

Today, the meeting of nobles is open again, because these nobles have encountered a new problem.

A cult group known as the Flesh and Blood Church appeared in the Starfall Kingdom and tried to preach, and the royal capital and the Riverbend area have been completely eroded by this cult.

These nobles had held a meeting to deal with this matter, in the castle of Duke Ferdinand, one of the most powerful nobles in the entire Starfall Kingdom.

Most of the nobles came to the castle to attend meetings, including the Count of Gryphon and those who had attended his banquets in the past.

The Count of Gryphon was having a good conversation with Duke Ferdinand at this time, but they were far away, and the other nobles did not hear what the two were talking about.

Some nobles felt strange, in their memory, Count Gryphon and Duke Ferdinand did not have any intersection, and the territory of the two was very far apart.

Soon other nobles explained the reason, the Count of Gryphon wanted to befriend Duke Ferdinand, as the convener of the noble council, Duke Ferdinand was very powerful, and other nobles were also very willing to befriend this duke.

Three days earlier, the Count of Gryphon had given Duke Ferdinand twenty very beautiful maids as gifts, each of whom was said to be a beautiful woman, and such looking female slaves would not be found in the slave market.

Duke Ferdinand was very pleased with these gifts, so the Count of Gryphon drew closer to him.

Of course, these things were only heard about by other nobles.

"Lord Duke, those who believe in the evil gods of flesh and blood even openly preach in my territory and seduce my subjects." A nobleman said in Parliament.

Other nobles encountered the same problem, and they instinctively resented the preaching of any gods in their own territory, for the simple reason that once their subjects believed in these gods and became members of the church, they would form a huge force in their own territory, and this would threaten the power of the nobility.

In the face of this threat, the first reaction of all the nobles was to huddle, first put aside all the previous contradictions, and join forces to deal with those who threatened the noble group.

It was with this method that neither the king of the Starfall Kingdom nor the missionaries from the Holy Light Sect could deal with them.

However, since it is to be united, there must be a leader, and Duke Ferdinand, as one of the most powerful nobles in the kingdom, is the most suitable as this leader.

Duke Ferdinand looked at the countless nobles at the meeting, and then said: "I know that all of you here are people of prominent status and noble blood, and it is not a pity that such a noble bloodline is completely cut off. The

other nobles wondered why Duke Ferdinand would say such things.

I only listened to him continue: "I have decided to join the Flesh and Blood Holy See and believe in the great God of Flesh and Blood with all my heart. "

The entire noble council exploded in an instant, originally Duke Ferdinand, as the recognized leader of the noble council, everyone expected him to be the leader and carry the banner of resistance to the flesh and blood Holy See.

But no one expected that Duke Ferdinand would directly declare his belief in the God of Flesh and Blood at the Council of Nobles and join the Flesh and Blood Holy See.

This made many nobles unable to figure it out, in their memory, Duke Ferdinand did not look like a devout believer in the gods, but at this time Ferdinand looked like a fanatical believer, and some nobles even doubted whether he was taken away.

But in the council of nobles, some nobles remained calm, as if they had known that Ferdinand would say this, including the Count of Gryphon, who had just spoken with Duke Ferdinand.

"Ferdinand, have you forgotten the glory of your family's past, you actually believe in an evil god." Some nobles immediately scolded angrily.

Ferdinand was not angry, but said with a smile: "According to the tradition of the noble council, we will vote on whether to allow the missionary of the flesh and blood Holy See." "

Although there is a clear class division among the nobles, in this aristocratic council, when it comes to important matters, it will vote to decide.

The other nobles also agreed, although I don't know why Ferdinand would go crazy and believe in the god of flesh and blood, but it is impossible for all the nobles to go crazy with him.

The results of the vote came out quickly, and three-quarters of the nobles who participated in this noble council agreed to join the flesh and blood see, including the Gryphon Count, these nobles were all of relatively high status and power.

The remaining quarter of the nobles were instantly dumbfounded, who did not expect that there would be so many people on the side of Duke Ferdinand.

"I don't agree with this vote!" Some stubborn nobles said.

Duke Ferdinand did not care about the objections of other nobles, anyway, soon these voices would disappear completely.

There were some intelligent nobles who sensed that something was wrong, and they knew that these nobles usually had no contact, but when they voted, they all chose to agree to the missionary of the flesh and blood see.

These intelligent nobles felt a huge conspiracy, although they did not know what the conspiracy was, but they must be unstoppable, even Duke Ferdinand agreed to the spread of the Flesh and Blood Holy See, then the result of his subsequent confrontation with the Flesh and Blood Holy See must be shattered.

"In that case, then I choose to abide by the voting results." Other nobles said.

Duke Ferdinand was very happy to see this situation, and then asked: "Who else is against it?" No

one answered, and now a fool can see that the result of standing up against it is definitely death, and no one wants to kill the chicken in the monkey.

This noble meeting was actually a play performed by Xin Yu's heirs to other nobles, and half of the nobles who participated were Hugus in human skin.

As for those human nobles, if some of them could understand the time, Xin Yu would not mind letting them die, but if there was a head iron, Xin Yu would not bother to let Xiugus take them away, and directly kill them all in the name of infighting between nobles.
