Doctor Player Chapter 377
Raymond and the aristocrats had a static relationship.
In ancient times, when a political battle ends with a victory for one side, there is always a bloody storm.
However, Raymond embraced everyone without any such thing.
Only for the people!
‘How much for the people?’
People misunderstood Raymond’s happy face at the thought of becoming rich and that he was happy to be able to serve the people.
In any case, Raymond succeeded in absorbing many of the aristocratic faction under himself.
Of course, as my older sister said, not everyone embraced it.
‘Because there are many bad guys in the aristocracy.’
All those bad guys were found guilty and put on trial with Marquis Rodrigo.
There were many people who were grinding their teeth, so it was not difficult to prepare evidence.
‘Punishing them is what helps me become rich.’
It was an unexpected story.
Does punishing the bad guys have anything to do with getting rich?
‘All of their property should be confiscated to the national treasury. And I’m embezzling.’
Raymond gave an evil smile behind his back.
Embezzlement!
It was a word that did not usually go well with Raymond. No matter how snobbish he was, he hadn’t done anything illegal.
‘There is a way to legally embezzle. Allocate the treatment budget to the Penin Center!’
Allocate your budget!
It was the number of trumps Raymond thought.
‘So far, the deficit of Penin Hospital has been enormous because of treating poor patients. I’ll make up for the deficit with the kingdom’s finances.’
Raymond had been thinking about it before.
How about making up for the deficit of the Penin Healing Center with the kingdom’s finances?
It is a deficit that occurred while treating the poor people in the first place.
In fact, the Houston kingdom was receiving such a budget little by little. The kingdom itself was so poor that it could not bring in a large budget.
However, the Peninsula Kingdom is a rich country.
There are a huge number of poor people, but the money the rich have is beyond imagination.
So, if you wanted to make up for the deficit with the kingdom’s treasury, it was possible.
But the reason he couldn’t do it so far was because the royal family had no power.
If he tried to use the budget like that, it was obvious that Marquis Rodrigo and Archduke Gideon would oppose it, so he didn’t try.
But now that the aristocracy has fallen, the story has changed.
‘This level of budget appropriation (?) is possible.’
Raymond let out a laugh.
Anyway, that was a step-by-step process, and now there are more important things to do.
The Marquis Rodrigo had to be executed.
* * *
Marquis Rodrigo was brought to court.
The sins were many.
Not only drug trafficking crimes, but all sorts of evil deeds committed in the Peninsula Kingdom were brought up as crimes.
In accordance with the will of King Peian VII, the verdict was pronounced quickly.
“…For these sins I shall be put to death.”
Marquis Rodrigo listened to the sentence with his blank eyes.
It was as if he couldn’t believe his situation.
Peian VII said coldly.
“Let me drag you along.”
Unlike his usual senile appearance, he had a sharp look.
That’s why he was so determined.
For my one and only grandson, Raymond.
‘Are you watching Lastel? The son you gave birth to is doing such a wonderful job for the people. I will become a grandfather that I will not be ashamed of!’
After making that promise, Peian VII spoke fiercely again.
“Execute the sentence immediately.”
The knights grabbed Marquis Rodrigo’s arms.
Only then did Marquis Rodrigo, who realized the reality, laughed.
“I wish I could be like this. Is it also your sister’s bloodline?”
Marquis Rodrigo looked at Raymond with bloodshot eyes.
Raymond, timid at the terrifying gaze, hesitated, then shook his head.
‘There’s nothing to be afraid of. Now he’s nothing.’
For reference, one of his creeds is strong weak weak strong.
If it was the former Marquis Rodrigo, he wasn’t afraid of the current Marquis Rodrigo. No, on the contrary, I could have done it.
‘Let’s take this opportunity to show off our cool image and capture the hearts of the hogu.’
Now, many of the aristocrats agreed to cooperate with Raymond.
However, the shadow of Marquis Rodrigo, who was the previous master, still remained, so it would be nice to take this opportunity to clearly imprint it.
The fact that Marquis Rodrigo was over.
“Noisy.”
“…!”
“You should feel ashamed that you have scorned the people so far and have no remorse.”
Raymond’s heart skipped a beat when he said these harsh words to Marquis Rodrigo.
However, according to the tenet of strong weak weak, he spoke in a stronger tone.
“I say in the name of Raymond, pay for the sins of scorning the people until now with a penitent heart in hell.”
At those words, Marquis Rodrigo was silent for a moment, then burst into laughter.
That laugh soon turned into madness.
“Yeah, as expected, it’s my sister’s bloodline. In the end it turned out just as you said. He said he would not leave me alone, and finally, with the help of his son, he made it happen.”
Marquis Rodrigo laughed for a while before being dragged away.
Now he will be the dew of the executioner.
‘Whoa, it’s over. thank god.’
Raymond let out a sigh of relief.
‘Now my future is solid.’
Of course, not all problems were resolved.
Prince Gideon!
The strongest teeth remained.
Raymond glanced across the courtroom.
Archduke Gideon, a tall and handsome man, was staring at him with emerald eyes.
‘It’s scary. If you look at it that way.’
Raymond swallowed.
‘I need to have a good conversation with Grand Duke Gideon.’
Grand Duke Gideon was the undisputed leader of the Peninsula Kingdom.
Up until now, Marquis Rodrigo had been leading the aristocratic faction and balancing the power by keeping Archduke Gideon in check, but now Marquis Rodrigo is gone.
It means that there is only one lion left in the kingdom.
So, I didn’t know how Grand Duke Gideon would come out in the future.
‘They might try to get rid of me.’
Raymond swallowed.
It’s something I don’t want to imagine, but it’s possible enough.
If only Raymond was removed, the Peninsula Kingdom would now belong to Grand Duke Gideon.
‘You have to be good at talking.’
Raymond promised.
‘I don’t really want to fight.’
As everyone says, his purpose is to make money.
And now it was just around the corner to achieve that goal.
If only Archduke Gideon doesn’t put in the attack, now he will smoothly become a super rich.
‘We don’t have to fight, do we? I’m a peacemaker. I can forgive everything you’ve quarreled with me so far.’
While thinking so, a person approached him.
Feian was 7 years old!
“My daughter has been through a lot. This old man is so grateful to you.”
“Oh no.”
“You went through a lot of hardship because of this grandfather. Thank you so much and I’m sorry.”
Raymond made an awkward face.
Is it because he’s used to his ugly father, Ornn?
I always felt awkward when I met Fei An VII, who treated him sincerely like a real grandson.
“Yeah, you did a great job. Is there anything you wish for? I want to reward you as a king, not as a grandfather.”
Raymond suddenly came to his senses at those words.
As a king, not as a grandfather!
It was an important moment.
‘Even if you don’t, there’s something you need to receive. I have to take this opportunity to appropriate the Kingdom’s property.’
This time, the property of the nobles, including the Marquis Rodrigo, was confiscated, and the royal family’s finances increased enormously.
Raymond was after the fortune.
“Please use the property confiscated from the Marquis Rodrigo and the criminals for the benefit of the people.”
“For the sake of the people?”
“Yes, all the property they embezzled was the blood and tears of the people. So I think it is right to use it for the people.”
After talking like this, I was planning to allocate most of them to the Penin Treatment Center.
‘I’ve done everything, shouldn’t I have some money to take with me, Grandpa? Hehe.’
Of course, on the outside, he put on a solemn expression. for image making.
“haha.”
Feian VII’s eyes turned red.
“How…this. Raymond, how can you look so much like your mother?”
All the other nobles present were also moved.
“You are really good.”
“You look exactly like Her Highness, former Crown Princess Lastel. How are you doing that for the people?”
Raymond felt a little remorse when everyone was so moved, especially when his grandfather looked like he was going to cry, but he didn’t back down.
‘To steal the budget as a pennin treatment center, it is essential that the other ministers agree! So now we have to get as many people as possible!’
Fortunately, the atmosphere wasn’t bad, so I seemed to be able to wear it (?) without difficulty.
There was only one difficulty.
It was Archduke Gideon.
‘If Grand Duke Gideon opposes it, things will get in the way.’
Raymond looked at Prince Gideon with his arms crossed.
My heart skipped a beat when I met a crooked gaze as if I didn’t like something.
‘Are you going to let go of the offense?’
Then Grand Duke Gideon opened his mouth.
“I agree too.”
“…!”
Everyone looked at Gideon in amazement.
Archduke Gideon smiled crookedly.
“As expected, I think it is a great opinion worthy of the saint of poverty. As a loyalist of the kingdom and the chairman of the council, I agree with His Majesty Raymond’s words.”
“….”
The people who were awkward for a moment nodded as if everything went well.
But Raymond kept his mouth shut.
For some reason, I felt uneasy.
‘What are you thinking?’
Grand Duke Gideon was clearly his political opponent.
In fact, Raymond didn’t want to be hostile to Archduke Gideon at all, but he would consider Raymond his enemy.
But to make a decision in favor of Raymond so meekly?
‘Does he have an ulterior motive?’
I looked at Grand Duke Gideon with an ominous heart.
Indeed, Gideon opened his mouth slowly.
“Instead, I would like His Highness the King to listen to my opinion.”
“…Something?”
Peian VII asked sharply.
Powerless, with an unusually strong voice, to protect his grandson Raymond, he sets up an alliance with Archduke Gideon.
Archduke Gideon was slightly taken aback by the unexpected appearance of the king and then spoke an unexpected story.
“I ask that you appoint Her Highness Raymond as Crown Prince on this occasion.”
Raymond stood tall.
‘…What kind of doggie is this?’
