Vol 2 Chapter 8: Nobles (Part 2)
"Salute to you, esteemed Lord Ruben Friedel, our family settled in Shenlinbao three hundred years ago, and since then, we have been loyal to the Fried family ..."
The old man standing under the steps of the castle hall was about to leave. The young earl sat on the chair with his right elbow on his chin and waved his hands impatiently, beckoning him to hurry and talk about something.
Such an opening remark He has heard it for the twentieth time today, there is no freshness at all, only boring.
The panicked old nobleman quickly shut his mouth and started his "performance" with a lifeless tone, as if he was reading a hypnotic song.
Although the weather has entered the winter, everyone standing in the hall still does not feel a little bit cool, and it becomes extremely dull under the sound of the old noble mosquitoes crying, each face is a listless face, the entire castle hall The inside was surprisingly quiet.
Standing on the right side of the hall, Will Cena held the shorthand board in one hand and quickly recorded it with a quill pen. Except for the sound of the brush tip, he could not hear whether he said anything.
And as guard captain Sir Aaron stood outside the hall, enjoying the cold wind and killing scenery in winter, just like the lonely knight in the oil painting, guarding the land he guarded outside the castle.
Only Loren on the side of Lu Wen must endure the magic sound of the old noble while maintaining a formal smile, like a clay statue.
If he had a choice, he would rather have an exchange with Asriel-a "no loyal" bird flew from the hall as early as half a day.
After the old man finished his statement, he did not understand what he said, and he sent him away with just a few words. Then he made a deep, staring stare at Will Cena: "How many are left?"
"Today?" The attendant quickly rummaged, and then swallowed a spit, then looked at the count with fear, "Forty-five people are still left, but you only need to receive as long as you need ..."
"I don't want to see any of them!" Suddenly, Lu Wen stood up from his chair and grumbled: "His grandma of Holy Cross, I came to be an earl, not a nanny for them!" "
Hmmm ... this can't let the people in the church know that Lorraen twitched his lips. But in fact, he agrees with Lu Wen very much. The people who came to him are basically for some trivial matters, and they didn't even need the Earl to do justice.
"But this is the earl's job." Will Senna, who was scolded, narrowed his neck in fear, and replied bitterly: "You are the law on this land, everyone can only find you to judge right and wrong. "
"I don't care, let the rest come back tomorrow!" Lu Wen was completely impatient and greeted the dark-haired wizard behind him: "Loren, follow me outside to get a breath!"
Glancing at the count and the stunned attendant who had left, and sighed, Loren patted Will's shoulder: "Let the rest of you come tomorrow, the count is definitely not willing to meet today. "
"How should I explain to them?" Will's posture of crying quickly: "I am just a servant, they will not take me seriously!"
"Then I can't help it." Loren shrugged his shoulders helplessly: "They certainly won't listen to me as a wizard."
Left the “desperate” servants, and the distraught young count had left the deep forest with several knights, galloping along the river outside the castle.
The entire Deep Forest Castle is not only the core of Earl's Collar, but also overlooks the entire wilderness from the top of the tower. Close to the east along the river, there are rows of orchards and large farms, dotted with small and large villages and towns; to the west are dense forests, which are important hunting grounds of the Earl's Collar, and there are also several Sawmill.
Shenlinbao is not a fertile land. The food in the land can only maintain the rations of the locals. The only special products are the more precious wood and the old wood of the previous year, as well as the most outstanding hunters of the entire duke.
Of course, the amber and some exquisite carvings exchanged from the elves are also "special products" of the Deep Limburg-these elves have never left their forests for some reason, and the Duke has never been interested in those forests. It has always been peaceful.
It was only a long way from the castle, and when it was almost a small town, Lu Wen stopped. The young earl looked at the bustling crowd in the distance, waiting for the dark-haired wizard behind him to follow.
"You're right, these people didn't plan to calm me down from the beginning." Lu Wen muffled and said indignantly: "They thought that using these troublesome and trivial things would make me meet the difficulties. Retreat and push everything to others to do. "
"At that time they will be able to regain their power, and my count is like a puppet, letting them do whatever they want-in the end, my father can only see my incompetence and return the deep forest to the Sena family to manage!"
"Who would be willing to give up the power he got?" Loren asked calmly: "Your father wants to deprive them of their title and power. Of course they will fight back and do whatever they can."
Lu Wen glanced at him, then nodded calmly: "You are right. But unfortunately I am my father's son, a member of the Fried family, I have no choice, and neither do you."
There was a formal smile on the face of the dark-haired wizard.
Just when both of them decided to go back, there was a sudden commotion in the villages and towns in the distance, and in the distance, several farmers were waving hard with a pitchfork to resist, and the women and children screamed. Fleeing around.
Is there a robber? Loren froze for a moment. This place is so close to the castle. How stupid would this group of robbers come here to rob?
Just as Loren was still confused, the count had drove the knights in the direction of the village, and he had no choice but to follow suit.
The entire village and town has been completely messed up, and the scattered crowd ran around. The knights ran away from the peasants who had fled, and broke straight into the middle of the village. Two groups of heavily armed men were facing each other. When they saw the knights rushing in, they turned their weapons around.
"Regardless of what you are doing, stop me!" Lu Wen, who stopped the horse, growled: "All put down the weapons ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Otherwise I will be welcome!"
"What kind of thing are you ?!" One of the young men stood up and glanced disdainfully at the young earl. The knight next to him came immediately and fell to the ground with a fist.
"I'm Ruben Friede!" The count raised his voice: "I'm the heir to the Principality of Lothal, the count of Shenlinbao, your lord!"
The effect of this threat is much better than before. Several people who were still stiff have laid down their weapons, watching the knights who have surrounded them, and they no longer have the courage to resist.
But there are still dissatisfied "The nobles used the duel to solve the problem. It has been a tradition for hundreds of years in the Shenlinbao. Even the earl did not interfere with our power!"
"I don't care what you used to look like, but now I am the Earl of Shenlinbao, I am the law here!" Lu Wen beckoned, and the surrounding knights stepped forward and bound several people who were still resisting to the ground. Got up.
Seeing those nobles who had already caught their hands but were still unconvinced and their thugs, Lu Wen was somewhat hesitant-he had no experience dealing with nobles, and it was really unclear what to do about such things.
"What do you think I should do?" Lu Wen asked, almost subconsciously, Loren, who was beside him. Almost everything that happened after coming to Shenlinbao was told by this dark-haired wizard.
"I can't replace you to order, just provide some small suggestions." Loren smiled slightly: "The people of the Sena family believe that you can't manage the Deep Limburg, then why don't you show them."
"Give these nobles a fair trial and let them know who is the ruler of this land!"
