Chapter 13 The Bain Family’s Troubles

When the courier from the Principality of Zeon arrived at Bain Castle with a letter full of warmth and enthusiasm written by the duchess, it immediately caused a huge turmoil in the Bain family.

In the letter, the Duchess said that she and the Duke were very happy to hear that Flynn was able to see through the gangsters' schemes at a young age and successfully defended the reputation of Sir Luo Lei and the Principality of Zeon. Especially The Duke especially admired Flynn's intelligence and wit, so he specially invited Flynn to Quen's castle to accept the Duke's reward. He hoped that the Bain family would not refuse the Duke's kindness.

To say how much of the meaning expressed in this letter is true and how much false, even an idiot like DeBellie can know that except for the fact that he wants Flynn to go to Quinn, there is no other one. Can't believe the notes.

However, although there is not a single strong word in the letter, the implication behind the words is that if the Bain family disappoints the Duke, it will obviously cause some unnecessary unhappiness to the Duke, which will lead to some unnecessary consequences. It is revealed between the lines. A naked threat.

When Flynn returned to his castle after dealing with the Zeon family's retinue, Cheap Daddy's first reaction was that the sky was falling. His first thought was to summon all the troops in the territory to prepare for the upcoming army from the Principality of Zeon. , it was Flynn who persuaded him to stop his irrational behavior and let him wait and see what happened next.

Then I heard that Viscount Luo Lei actually did as Flynn said, not only did he not launch an attack but instead killed the few followers and acquiesced to Flynn's treatment, this made the cheap dad feel that his brain was completely insufficient.

I don’t understand why Sir Rory would obediently comply with his son’s plan, but it seems that it is always a good thing that the matter has settled down and the Bain family has escaped a disaster, so the cheap dad got drunk for a few times to relax. The little kid, who was so frightened that he jumped wildly for several days, also had a new understanding of his son.

Two days before he could rejoice over the young genius his son had revealed, he received this fateful invitation, and the cheap dad felt that his life was shrouded in a dark cloud again.

Who doesn’t know that sending Flynn to Quen is like putting a sheep in a tiger’s mouth? The few nobles who did this before now not only have the sons they sent there have disappeared inexplicably, but the entire family has been swallowed up by the Duke of Zeon, even skin and bones. , Cheap Daddy is not smart enough, but he is not a fool either. He will never agree to give his only son and heir to the neighbor's evil wolf, but he has no idea how to deal with Old Tibbs's upright invitation. , we could only immediately summon all the vassals in the territory, large and small, to study countermeasures together.

Although the territory of the Bain family is not large and the title is not high, according to the rules, there are hundreds of barons and warriors under the viscount, and there are more than twenty who are qualified to participate in the discussion, which makes the large house that Flynn thought was quite spacious. The living room was packed.

It was the first time that Flynn met many of them, or he had seen them before when he was younger but did not leave much of an impression. After all, he rarely appeared in front of the Bain family vassals due to his young age.However, the fake retinue incident has spread throughout the Bain Territory in the past few days. Anyone present who is not deaf has heard about it. As for the truth behind the news that happened in their own territory, as a local aborigine, It is easy to know the true hidden secrets, so even though Flynn appeared for the first time on this occasion, everyone looked at this young heir with admiration and their evaluation was quite high. They did not feel that Flynn's presence was anything. Not suitable.

The cheap dad with a sad face spoke first, raising today's topic and setting the tone of the discussion: "Everyone knows the letter Duke Zeon sent us, and they should know what they want to do, and they also know what we are doing. The current situation of the Bain family. No matter what, Flynn is my heir and the hope for the future of our Bain family. I never agree to send Flynn to Quen like this. Everyone should find a way together to ensure that we can Ensure Flynn’s safety without offending Duke Zeon.”

Since the lord made his attitude clear from the beginning, subsequent discussions would not be that difficult.A bunch of vassals from the Bain family gathered together and discussed for a long time. The noise made the cheap daddy feel his ears ringing and his head hurt. Finally, several major plans were gradually discussed.

"There's nothing to say about this kind of thing. We can't hand over Master Flynn to Duke Zeon and just find a reason to refuse. Even Duke Zeon can't just come and rob him. I think we can just say that Master Flynn is seriously ill. That's good." The person who made this opinion thought simply, and obviously didn't realize how big the appetite of old Tibbs was.

Some people who thought further also expressed their opinions: "The excuse of being sick may not be easy to use. What if they say that there is a good doctor in Kun'en? How should we refuse, or send someone over to check whether the young master is really sick?" Let’s do it. It’s better to let Master Flynn go out and hide. If no one can be found, Duke Zeon will have nothing to say.”

There are also some people who obviously belong to the more fanatical radicals and have already disliked the Principality of Zeon. They simply suggested: "It's okay to just reply to the letter and refuse. After all, the Viscount is a direct vassal of the king. If the Duke of Zeon If you dare to threaten us with such reasons, we can appeal to the king and ask His Majesty the king to directly refute them and dispel their ambitions."

The idea of ​​finding the king as his thigh somewhat coincides with the cheap daddy. Anyway, the royal family has been his biggest support for a long time, so he is vaguely interested in this proposal.

Before he could voice his approval, Flynn was the first to veto the suggestion. Otherwise, it would be troublesome to change everyone's opinions once the cheap daddy came out.

"The king doesn't care about us. He is busy dealing with Cecilia's attack. Even if the king is willing to risk Cecilia's attack on the royal capital and send troops to support us, Bernburg should have been destroyed by Zeon at that time. The army has broken through." Flynn bluntly pointed out the biggest problem. "We will probably have more than 1000 troops at our disposal. Duke Zeon can easily recruit [-] to [-] troops to attack Fort Bern without mobilizing all of them. We are no match for them."

"Perhaps the king doesn't need to send troops. He only needs to send a messenger to refute Duke Zeon. Duke Zeon can't disobey the king's order." Someone retorted without giving up.

"We cannot place our hopes on Duke Zeon's respect for the king's orders. Duke Zeon never cares about the king's orders. Have you forgotten how the Cecilia people were introduced in the first place?"

Flynn's speech instantly silenced most people. Duke Zeon's past actions clearly proved that he was not a good minister who respected the royal power.

Turning his attention to Cheap Daddy, Flynn secretly made up his mind.

"Let me go to Quen, it's the only way to solve the problem."
