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.
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?’
