lord and his dragon
Chapter 70 Continue
To the west of the capital lies a huge manor, which used to be the property of the once prominent aristocrat Hugh Nordin's family, but now lives in the family of Viscount Craves.
The luxuriant garden and the vast horse farm are all deserted, and the mansion is also dilapidated due to neglect. If you can enter this mansion, you can find that there are only more than 300 rooms left. One is still in use because there are too few servants to clean it, and the others have fallen to dust.
But no matter what, this is a huge amount of wealth, symbolizing the face and strength of the nobility. Even if the dove cannot maintain the brilliance of the nest after occupying the magpie's nest, it is enough to be happy to live here.
However, just a few days ago, this mood was shattered.
The last remaining Earl of the Hugh Nuoding family, Negrim Hugh Nuoding, returned to the capital with a large fortune earned from the frontier.
After all, this mansion used to belong to Hugh Nordin. Even if the deed is now in the hands of Viscount Krevis, it is impossible to say that he is not guilty. What's more, he knows exactly how the manor came into his hands. Up.
Five years ago, the last member of Hugh Nuoding's family, Nigrim Hugh Nuoding, was appointed by the king and went to the frontier as the lord of the Borderlands and the Marginal Forest. What advantage did Hugh Nuoding's family take? The Viscount Krevis threw down his face and stopped in front of the carriage as the elder of the in-law family, half coaxing and half coaxing Xiu Nuoding with the excuse of "taking care of him" He snatched away the deed of the manor, and after Xiaoxiu Nuoding left the capital, he couldn't wait to attend various banquets and dances, and publicized the kindness and generosity of this nephew to other nobles, and said that the other party had already given the manor to him. As a gift to myself, Hugh Notting Manor has now been renamed Crevis Manor.
Viscount Krevis is not smart, and he doesn't have many methods. He dare not expect Hugh Nuoding to die directly at the border, but he can only think of such a way to make Hugh Nuoding come back without that. face to ask him for the contract.
This method is really stupid. After all, if Xiaoxiu Nuoding wants regardless, he actually doesn't have much room to refuse. Apart from brazenly insisting on it, he can only accuse him of "going back on his word" along with other nobles. "Stingy and stingy", most of his hopes are actually pinned on little Hugh Nuoding, who will have to give up this property because of face.
But it's just a bad reputation. Compared with such a big manor, what is the reputation?Viscount Krevis judged others by himself, so he was very worried. From the moment Nigrim returned to the capital, they were fully alert and ready to tangle with each other at all times.
But what surprised Viscount Krevis was that after returning to the capital, Hugh Nordin did not bring anyone to the manor to live in, but bought another mansion and lived there without saying a word , and no one was sent to submit the greeting post for the whole day after that.
What does it mean?He has already heard the rumors of the "transfer of the Hugh Notting Manor", and because he is worried that he will be despised by other nobles like before, he doesn't plan to ask for it back?Or did he make a fortune and forget about it at all?
Viscount Krevis speculated for a long time, and finally came to the conclusion that, no matter what the reason was, the reaction of little Hugh Nuoding could only prove that his personality had not changed in the past five years, and it was still the same as when he was in the capital. Timid and cowardly, anyone can round and flatten.
If you think about it this way, wouldn't he be the same as before when he became rich again, wouldn't he still be a big piece of fat? !
Viscount Krevis couldn't bear it anymore.
Not only did he no longer feel guilty, but he was even more excited than when he first moved into the mansion.
The Krevis family is now at the bottom of the aristocratic circle. Because they are not good at making money, and they are not good at making money, the family's economy is very difficult. It can be seen from the number of servants they can count on one hand. Just how poor the Krevis family is now.
Not long after they moved into the manor, they sold their original old house. Relying on the squandering of the money, the Kerevis family lived a good life for a while. When money became tight again, Kerevisi Si began to sell the valuables in the manor to make a living, but Hugh Nuoding's house had been raided long ago, and the remaining things were not enough for them to sell for a long time. Within two years, the manor was also empty, and Ke Ruiwei was desperate. Viscount Si can only earn money by marrying women from his clan to merchants.
But now there are no more women in the Krevis family. Even before Xiaoxiu Nuoding returned to the capital, Krevis thought about whether to bring those married women back to marry a second time, but that If so, even if they are accompanied by aristocrats, there may not be any businessmen who take the risk of taking their women.
Considering this, Viscount Krevis reluctantly gave up on this idea. Just when he was worrying about money, Xiaoxiu Nuoding was still as easy to bully as before, and even sent him to the capital by himself. How could he bear it? Do you want to take a bite?
You know, when Hugh Nuoding's family lost power, Viscount Krevis always regretted not being able to eat the first bite of meat before everyone else. One-tenth of it is enough for their family to eat and drink for a lifetime, and even become a famous nobleman again!
When Negrim was away, Viscount Krevis prayed countless times because of this remorse that time could be turned back. Now, although time has not turned back, the same opportunity is in front of him for the second time. How can he let go?If he still falls behind this time, Viscount Krevis feels that he might as well die!
So after confirming that Xiaoxiu Nuoding really did not intend to ask for the contract, Krevis immediately sent a greeting post.
As for the fact that no gift was prepared, it was a matter of course for Viscount Krevis. Although Miss Hugh Nordin, who married into their family, was dead, her grandson was still alive, eating his Bread, drinking his milk, of course he is still Hugh Nuoding's in-laws, little Xiu Nuoding's elder, plus the situation at home is really bad, no matter what little Hugh Nuoding should be considerate of him.
But who knew that Xiaoxiu Nuoding, a snobby eye, actually ignored his letter!
Krevis was jealous when he saw the gifts received by others. These gifts from Gaydon would be enough for them to squander for a while if they were resold, and this was just an ordinary return gift prepared by Hugh Nuoding!It is conceivable that if he can exploit the other party for a fortune - he will not ask for everything, ten carts of treasure will get five carts!Is it enough for them to eat for decades?
Such fantasies increased Viscount Krevis's determination to get back online with Negrim, and he was even willing to squeeze out a part of his living expenses to give gifts to the other party, but who knew there was still no reply!
When I handed over the post for the third time, Viscount Krevis no longer had such big fantasies, and it is hard to say what happened after that. A normal-sized gift should always have a normal-sized gift in return, right?Even if they are treated the same as others, they still earn money!
Who knows that even if it is this gift, there is still no response. It is the last money that Viscount Krevis can find at home. Even the Viscountess's pearl earrings are worn. Such a package of things, thrown away Going into the pool of Xiaoxiu Nuoding, he didn't even hear a sound, which made Viscount Krevis beat his chest and stamped his feet with remorse!
You don't want to talk to me, but you have a bit of backbone, return the gift!They don't even have enough food money for next month!
Even the viscount's eyes were red with anger.
The Krevis family is now gloomy.
Unlike most aristocratic families where the titled head of the family is responsible for all affairs, Viscount Krevis has no ideas of his own, no matter big or small, good or bad, he has to tell everyone to show his difficulty.And the head of the family took the lead, and this habit was also passed on to other members of the family. The Krevis family has not improved. In addition to the fact that the Viscount himself is useless, it is also because other nobles know the scandal of his family and feel that Krevis People in the family have weak mouths and don't want to make friends with them.
Viscount Krevis didn't know this, so at dinner, he told the current situation of the family again. When he heard what he said, the people who were still talking and laughing suddenly couldn't eat. When Reeves saw their dejected looks, he was even more unhappy. He only felt that this was a group of free-living guys, and he was completely dragged down by them, so he couldn't help but lose his temper, and killed several nephews and brothers. They were all scared away, leaving only his wife and his favorite second son on the table.
The Viscountess was also very sad. Who would have expected that the cripple of Hugh Nuoding's family would be able to make a fortune. Otherwise, if he had been kinder to him at the beginning, the little things he leaked through his fingers would be enough for them to spend now. Well, even her last pair of earrings are gone!
But Krevis was in a fit of anger, and she didn't dare to say such frustrating words as if she was blaming the other party, so she could only say: "Maybe he still remembers the matter of the manor, and he didn't dare to pursue it with us, so he deliberately avoided it." .”
The viscount let out a heavy breath from his nose and said, "Pursuant? What is the pursuit? He left the capital at that time and was entrusted to the border to become a lord. What use is this manor to him? Our Keruiwei Si also supported Xiu Nuoding in the past, and later he was used as a cow and a horse for them to order, and a useless manor as a reward, shouldn't it be right! This manor belongs to us! It's supposed to be like this!"
The Viscount was still a bit guilty at first, but the more he talked, the more he felt that he was justified, and finally he became more confident, and cursed: "The white-eyed wolf of Hugh Nuoding's family! The little bastard born of a whore! That cripple was gloomy when he was a child. I knew he was a bad breed, and he deliberately targeted us when he grew up! Why didn't he die at Hugh Nuoding's house back then!"
The Viscountess has been able to get along with the Viscount Krevis for so long, and she is actually the same way. When she heard the Viscount's words, she immediately felt that this was reasonable, but she is a noble lady after all, and she can't utter bad words. She just said bitterly: "The Hugh Nuoding family left him for nothing. He is really uneducated and has no aristocratic airs at all!"
Their second son, Diwali Krevis, couldn't help rolling his eyes at the table.
Of course he knew that what his parents said was totally unreasonable, not to mention how many years Hugh Nuoding's family had raised Krevis, and what sinful things did they do, that such a large manor should be paid for their hard work to pay off debts?Who are you kidding, just talk about it in your own house, you will be laughed to death by other nobles when you go out, anyone with eyes or no eyes will know who is not aristocratic.
But he will not persuade these two, because in his opinion, this manor is also theirs. Unlike the Viscount Correvis and his wife, they will feel guilty when they take advantage of it, and they have to find reasons to convince themselves, but in Divari's view, It's a matter of course to steal other people's things to support oneself. The old Krevis is in a dilemma now because he was not decisive enough to attack the little bastard of Hugh Nuoding's family earlier, or simply kill him directly. What's the matter?
He even looked down on old Krevis, who was useless and cowardly, and made his family miserable. If he hadn't had a title to inherit, he would have left them and gone out to make a living by himself.
He really couldn't stand the chattering between the two of them, he slapped the table, and said impatiently: "Okay, okay, what's the use of saying these things now, if you have the time, you might as well think about how to get money back from the bastard. "
He used to hang out with Lux Hunodin, because the other party was okay with facing him, so his personality was also domineering. He never called Negrim by his first or last name, and he always followed Luke Stan calls him little bastard, scum, or lame.
If other people spoke in this tone, Viscount Krevis would turn his back on him, but Diwali was different. Not only did he have ideas, but he was also the only talented person in his family. After studying in the academy for a period of time, although he failed to become a swordsman, he was nimble and had the talent to be an archer. Old Krevis hoped that his second son would be able to succeed with this talent, and he was a martial artist. There will be people who are willing to make friends with the nobles. The Krevis family may not be able to make a comeback, so they love him very much and have never been willing to lose their temper with him.
Hearing what Divari said, the Viscount had no choice but to soften his voice, and said: "What can I do? He lives in the house and no one is seen, can I still break in by force? I got it from him last time. The manor also stopped him when he was leaving in a carriage, so there is no chance now."
When the Viscountess heard this, she gritted her teeth and said like cutting flesh: "Why don't we show our friendship first? If he said he wanted to return the manor, he should see us, right? At that time, we can think of a way..."
"no!"
The two Krevises spoke at the same time, and the Viscount glared at her and said, "Repay? Why? This manor is already ours! Give it to him? Unless I die!"
When he got the deed, the Viscount already thought that the name of the manor was Krevis, so he would not hand over his things!Besides, compared to negotiating terms with Xiaoxiu Nuoding?Won't he sell the estate?How much money can I change?
Of course Diwali is not willing either, how big is their manor, this is face, it is capital to show off!How can I give it out?You know, even the manor where Pavoni's family lives is three times smaller than his family's!
Seeing that her husband and son did not agree with her words, the Viscountess also felt unhappy, and said, "Then what do you think?"
The Viscount was speechless, but Divari laughed and said, "Do you have to meet the little bastard if you want to get money?"
The Viscount and his wife were shocked, knowing that their son was used to it, they immediately understood what Divari meant.
When Divari used to hang out with Lux Hugh Nuoding, his hands and feet were not very clean. He took a lot of things from Hugh Nuoding's house, and because they were not found, he sold them for a lot of money and gave them to Kerui Wei The Si family brought a lot of benefits, so Viscount Krevis didn't care, and even felt that his son was capable, and now that Divari said this, it was obvious that he wanted to steal something from Xiaoxiu Nuoding directly!
It is not that Viscount Krevis has no doubts in his heart, but there is indeed no way out now, and he can't help but think about the ten carts of treasure that were transported into the king's capital. Hugh Nordin couldn't find it at all, and even if he found it, what was it to him?The expenses of their entire family for several years are nothing to Hugh Nuoding now, and he won't care if he finds out, even if he cares, he doesn't have the guts to track it down!
As long as they don't get caught on the spot, they don't have to be afraid of anything!
Viscount Krevis seemed to regain hope for a moment. He looked at his son expectantly and said, "Can you?"
Diwali seems very confident. His family is poor, but he has never treated himself badly. He has been doing his old job outside all these years. The little talent that belongs to the archer makes him invincible in stealing. , has never been found, and even if he is found, he is sure to escape, but it is so difficult to go to the little bastard's yard to get something?
When the Viscount and his wife called him like this, there were happy smiles on their faces, and they praised him hastily.
Diwali was very flustered, and said with a smile: "I'll go and have a look tonight, and hope that his ten carts of treasures are really treasures, and not mixed with mud and wood, making me look forward to it in vain."
That night, Divari went to the mansion where Negrim lived, and when he came back, his empty cloth bags were filled with gems and various jewelry. The Viscount and his wife couldn't keep their eyes open!
"My God! My God!" The Viscountess was ecstatic, and she did not forget to lower her voice, and put the jewelry on her body with trembling hands.
Viscount Krevis was so surprised that he was speechless, with all these treasures, what else did he need to worry about!Get rich, get rich!
Only Divari's mood was a little complicated. He had never looked down on Negrim who lived like a reptile in Hugh Nordin's house before. It is certainly a pleasure to steal something from the other party easily, but there is more in his heart. But jealousy and resentment.
It's just the trash he stepped on in the past. Why does that bastard live better than him?Why are you so rich?The treasures he brought back were enough for his family to live a good life for several years, but to Negrim, it was only a part of his wealth that was no bigger than the size of a little thumbnail!
The bag of treasures he brought back made the Viscount and his wife show ugly greedy expressions. Who knew what kind of mood he would feel when he opened the treasure compartment and found that it was full of treasures that were bigger and more valuable than these things!
The Viscountess wore shiny gemstone rings on her ten fingers, feeling that she had neglected maintenance, and her increasingly rough hands were about to become tender again, she almost shed tears, and said happily: "Enough! enough!"
"That's enough!" When he came back to his senses, Viscount Krevis couldn't help but swear, he looked at his son eagerly, and said, "Why did you only bring these back? He doesn't have enough treasures? "
When Diwali heard this, he couldn't help it anymore, and said: "I've already filled the cloth bag, how much more can I take? His treasures are going to be piled up like a mountain! The ten compartments are all filled, and there is not a little Gap!"
After that, he narrated all the scenes he saw in the yard tonight. Hearing the viscount's fascination, he couldn't help cursing: "Little Hugh Nuoding is so rich, but he is so stingy to us! Just treat him like this!" How can something be enough?! Son, let’s go again tomorrow! Bring a bigger bag and bring more things back!”
After hearing this, the Viscountess couldn't help but feel a little worried, and said, "Is there any danger? What if I get caught?"
Before the Viscount could speak, Divari snorted and said, "Caught? How is it possible! The guards he raised are all useless, they will be knocked down with a little drug, and they won't wake up even if there is a thunderstorm!"
"Don't worry, look at their reactions during the day," Diwali said, feeling extremely sour again, and said jealously: "I guess he won't find out, I'll go again tomorrow night."
The Viscount also nodded, and said: "Before he leaves the capital, don't touch these things, so as not to be discovered. After he leaves, with this money, we will immediately become first-class nobles, and there will be more It's someone who has caught up to flatter us!"
Thinking of the future life, the viscount and his wife were very happy. When the viscount dreamed at night, everyone nodded and bowed to him, and even the king looked up to him.
On the second day, there was no movement in Negrim. Divari went to the second time with peace of mind and brought back a large bag of treasures. The same was true on the third day. Viscount Si couldn't bear it anymore.
"Tonight, can you take me with you?" the Viscount asked expectantly.
Divari brought back so much treasure every day that the Viscount couldn't imagine what it would look like if there were ten carts of such treasure!However, the more Diwali described it to him, the more he wanted to see it with his own eyes. In the past two days, he had dreamed of rolling on the mountain made of treasure piles. Take a look at those treasures, roll around in them, and you will live your whole life in vain!
If he misses this opportunity, he will definitely regret it!
Viscount Krevis is also over 40 years old, and he is just an ordinary person with not very smart hands and feet. Divari actually has scruples in his heart, but this is his father after all, and how many good things have been said around him. He boasted eloquently, Divari was more or less coaxed out of some father-son friendship, and thought that the guards on Negrim's side were as stupid as pigs, even if old Krevis went, it wouldn't affect him What, I can move more things, so after a moment of hesitation, I nodded in agreement.
Viscount Krevis was so happy that he almost jumped up on the spot. They tidied up at night and tiptoed out the door.
Viscount Krevis didn't go out on weekdays, and he was very tired when he walked, but when he thought of the treasure he was about to see, he was so excited that he completely forgot about his physical fatigue.
The courtyard of the mansion where Negrim lived was surrounded by a stone wall, which made it difficult for old Kreves. It was Divari who gave him a hand to make him successfully climb in. They bypassed the drugged mansion. The guards went straight to the ten compartments with locked doors.
Seeing the treasures close at hand, the old Krevis was trembling with excitement. Divari also forgot how he reacted when he saw these treasures for the first time. The lock was opened in two or three clicks.
In order to open the eyes of old Krevis, Divari showed off and opened all ten carriages, and following his actions, those treasures were exposed to the old Kreves one by one, almost without a trace. Tell him to faint with excitement!
He walked up to him with weak legs, climbed onto the carriage with both hands and feet, and lay happily on the precious stones and gold, muttering to himself: "It's all mine...it's all mine..."
When Divari heard this, his face sank, he snorted coldly, awakened the Viscount in his dream, and said, "Be sober, we can only take part of these things, and the rest belong to the cripple. "
Seeing so many treasures, the old Krevis was not willing to let go. Hearing this, he twitched violently and almost died immediately from the blow. He said: "No, no..."
Seeing his appearance, Divari's eyes couldn't help but brighten up. He leaned forward and said, "Father, why don't we just keep going and kill that little bastard? As long as he dies, all these things will be destroyed." Ours!"
Old Krevis opened his mouth, his cloudy eyeballs moved, and suddenly he seemed to see a light, and he lit up again, and said: "Yes, that's right, as long as little Hugh Nuoding is dead, these things, these things It's all ours!"
When Divari saw these treasures, he was so jealous that he wanted Negrim to die. Seeing his father's promise, he also worried that he was just deluded at the moment, and would regret it after returning, so he confirmed and said again : "You are sure, you want to kill that little bastard!"
Old Krevis' eyes were clear, he nodded, and said firmly: "I want to kill!"
No matter what, he must not give up this wealth, he has already seen it!How could it not belong to him?It is absolutely impossible for him to give up.
Xiaoxiu Nuoding must die, he must die, this is his retribution for being stingy with the Krevis family!
Seeing him like this, Divari showed a satisfied smile on his face. He took out a pocket and handed it to the old Krevis, saying: "You can't act rashly today. If you want to kill that little bastard, you have to go back and plan carefully. Bring some things back today, it’s not a waste of time.”
After hearing this, the old Krevis hurriedly took the pockets, and began to fill them with a lot of things. After filling most of them, he felt that it was not enough, and there were more valuable things in them!So I poured out the bag again and repacked it.
After doing this several times, he was going to be tired. Those treasures emitted light that almost dazzled his eyes, but even so, he still didn't stop his movements until he began to feel that the light emitted by the treasures on the side was a bit strong It was so intense that he couldn't help squinting his eyes, wanting to see what was so bright.
However, as soon as he turned his head, he saw a scene that almost broke his liver and gallbladder——
The real owner of the treasure, the owner of the Xiu Nuoding family, Nigrim Xiu Nuoding, was leading a dozen guards, holding a magic lamp in his hand, and looked at him expressionlessly.
As a nobleman, he was caught stealing something on the spot. The old Krevis was completely frightened and froze in place, holding the bag and a string of sapphire necklaces in his hands, unable to move, but his son Divari He is a repeat offender, and immediately covered his face and ran away.
He moved so fast that to ordinary people it was as fast as the wind, but there was no one chasing him in Negrim. Only the handsome elf with his arrow and bow moved like a cloud and flowing water. As soon as he let go, he heard the sound of the attack in the darkness. With a scream, Diwali's calf was pierced by a long arrow, one end was nailed to the ground, and the other end remained in his leg, blood was bubbling, and he couldn't move a step further.
It seems that he didn't learn the archer course very well, otherwise he wouldn't even know how to escape from a marksman.
What?How to escape?Of course, don't run away, just kneel down and surrender.
Divari's screams finally made Viscount Krevis come back to his senses belatedly. He let out a few hoarse shouts from his throat, and stepped back step by step, but still clutched the cloth bag in his hand. .
Negrim almost laughed out loud.
Didn't Negrim know that Divari had come to steal things earlier?Of course he knew, not only did he know, he had even been watching in the dark.
And the reason why he didn't directly capture Divari was, of course, because Negrim was familiar with old Krevis' methods.
Back then, the lady from Hugh Nuoding's family who married into the Krevis family was considered to be the grandmother of Viscount Krevis, and the king was hurriedly expelled from the family by Viscount Krevis before he even expressed his intention to pursue it. So much so that he froze to death on the streets in winter, Nigrim really didn't dare to bet on how much affection Viscount Krevis could have for his son.
If Divari is captured and turned away to be expelled from the house by Viscount Krevis, then all his preparations will be in vain. Instead of this, it is better to wait for Viscount Krevis to come to the door directly—— He can't get rid of himself and his family, can he?Negrim did not believe that he had such a spirit of self-sacrifice.
Negrim waited patiently for several days, and finally caught this big fish today, so naturally he would not let him go easily.
Some guards had already walked out of the queue, and with Divari's screams, he pulled him out of the arrow and tied him up. Nigrim walked slowly to the old Krevis and asked softly: " Isn't this Viscount Krevis? You appeared in my yard in the middle of the night with a cloth bag full of treasures, what do you want to do?"
Old Krevis' cheeks trembled. He was afraid at first, but after seeing Negrim's face clearly, he didn't know where he had a burst of courage.
Negrim Hugh Nordin, the most useless member of the Hugh Nuodin family, the trash trampled by Lux Hugh Nuodin, the laughing stock of the entire capital!He didn't even have the guts to accept his own invitation!Can't he cope with such a thing?He has nothing to be afraid of!
Old Krevis stood up straight. He was obviously a thief, but he was as confident as a sufferer. He pointed at Negrim's nose, held back for a long time, and said, "Why do you hurt my son!"
Seeing that his useless father actually mustered up the courage to mess with the little trash of Hugh Nordin's family head-on, Diwali also felt that there was hope for his escape, so he howled miserably in a very cooperative manner.
Hearing this voice, the old Krevis became more reasonable and said, "Look at what you have done?!"
Negrim looked at the hand of old Krevis pointing at his nose, blinked in confusion, and said, "I thought you were stealing from me?"
His despicable behavior was exposed, and the face of old Krevis suddenly turned pale. He is a nobleman after all, and he needs face, but even if he is caught, he can't admit it right now. As long as he doesn't admit it, he will If they can quibble, it doesn't matter even if Negrim sues them before the king.
The old Krevis immediately threw away the cloth bag in his hand, and said nonsense with his eyes open: "Steal something? I am also a Viscount after all, and I need to steal your things?! Earl Hugh Notting, please show some respect!"
Old Krevis thought he knew Negrim's character, and that the other party was weak and fearful. As long as his aura was strong enough, little Hugh Nordin would naturally regress and would not pursue this matter any more. If you want to send gifts backwards, tell them to keep quiet!
But things didn't develop as he imagined. Xiaoxiu Nuoding did not get tough, but he didn't mean to let go. Instead, he said softly: "Since it's not stealing, why did you appear in my yard?" where? I didn't invite you in."
Old Krevis had already forgotten his fear just now, and said with wide eyes, "It's not because you accepted the gift but didn't want to see us!"
Negrim said slowly, "Are you here to see me?"
Seeing his reaction, the old Krevis thought that he felt that he was wronged. He immediately became proud, rolled his eyes, and instead of going down the steps, he said, "Oh, see you? You also have the qualifications? We just It was just a walk, and I accidentally entered here by mistake!"
Negrim was amused. He looked at old Krevis as if he were a monkey playing tricks, and said, "My yard is surrounded by a wall. How can you walk over the wall?"
Seeing that Negrim refused to let go, old Krevis was also a little anxious, and threatened: "Be sensible, Xiaoxiu Nuoding, let me and my son leave, and give me a car... No, five Che Caibao, I will not pursue this matter, otherwise the lawsuit will go to the king, and you will not be able to please!"
Negrim smiled, and said, "It's so strange, I was the one who caught the two of you stealing on the spot, why did you make trouble with the king, because I can't please you?"
Seeing that he was so stubborn, the old Krevis could only sternly say: "Be sober, little Hugh Nuoding, there is no evidence of death in such a thing as stealing. I said I was taking a walk, and I was just taking a walk." , so what if your people see it? They are people you hired, so of course they can’t be counted as witnesses. That’s right, it’s not the first time we’ve come here. There are your things at home, but you said it was yours. Is it yours? Who will testify? Even if it is produced in your territory, isn’t it sold out!”
Negrim looked at him and said slowly, "Your Majesty will not be deceived by you."
Old Krevis immediately laughed when he heard this, and said, "Of course His Majesty the King believes whoever he wants to believe. You should recognize your identity. You are the one sent to the border! Don't think that you are It’s great to earn some money on the frontier. The king will like you? No matter how unfavored we Kreves are, we have stayed in the capital for so long. Will the king believe your words? Even if the king knows that I stole your Things will definitely favor me, give up, you have no chance of winning!"
Even though that is what he said, the old Krevis actually did not have the confidence that the king would trust him. After all, he had not had the chance to see the king for a long time, but because of this, the more certain he wanted to say, the better. Only by making Xiaoxiu Nuoding afraid and dare not tell him can he be [-]% safe.
Probably people really have to be forced to unleash their potential. The old Krevis simply felt that he had never been so clear-headed in his life, and he said: "But it's different when my son is injured. To be honest, the wound on his calf matches your archer's arrow. If you don't want to cause trouble, you should let us go quickly and send someone to send the treasure to Krevis Manor tomorrow, otherwise... hum!"
"Krevis Manor..." Negrim laughed lowly, and said, "It's really interesting. I have to say, your performance today really opened my eyes."
Old Krevis was stunned for a day, and belatedly realized that there seemed to be something wrong with Xiaoxiu Nuoding's attitude.
Negrim glanced at him, his expressionless face returned, and he said: "Abel
The luxuriant garden and the vast horse farm are all deserted, and the mansion is also dilapidated due to neglect. If you can enter this mansion, you can find that there are only more than 300 rooms left. One is still in use because there are too few servants to clean it, and the others have fallen to dust.
But no matter what, this is a huge amount of wealth, symbolizing the face and strength of the nobility. Even if the dove cannot maintain the brilliance of the nest after occupying the magpie's nest, it is enough to be happy to live here.
However, just a few days ago, this mood was shattered.
The last remaining Earl of the Hugh Nuoding family, Negrim Hugh Nuoding, returned to the capital with a large fortune earned from the frontier.
After all, this mansion used to belong to Hugh Nordin. Even if the deed is now in the hands of Viscount Krevis, it is impossible to say that he is not guilty. What's more, he knows exactly how the manor came into his hands. Up.
Five years ago, the last member of Hugh Nuoding's family, Nigrim Hugh Nuoding, was appointed by the king and went to the frontier as the lord of the Borderlands and the Marginal Forest. What advantage did Hugh Nuoding's family take? The Viscount Krevis threw down his face and stopped in front of the carriage as the elder of the in-law family, half coaxing and half coaxing Xiu Nuoding with the excuse of "taking care of him" He snatched away the deed of the manor, and after Xiaoxiu Nuoding left the capital, he couldn't wait to attend various banquets and dances, and publicized the kindness and generosity of this nephew to other nobles, and said that the other party had already given the manor to him. As a gift to myself, Hugh Notting Manor has now been renamed Crevis Manor.
Viscount Krevis is not smart, and he doesn't have many methods. He dare not expect Hugh Nuoding to die directly at the border, but he can only think of such a way to make Hugh Nuoding come back without that. face to ask him for the contract.
This method is really stupid. After all, if Xiaoxiu Nuoding wants regardless, he actually doesn't have much room to refuse. Apart from brazenly insisting on it, he can only accuse him of "going back on his word" along with other nobles. "Stingy and stingy", most of his hopes are actually pinned on little Hugh Nuoding, who will have to give up this property because of face.
But it's just a bad reputation. Compared with such a big manor, what is the reputation?Viscount Krevis judged others by himself, so he was very worried. From the moment Nigrim returned to the capital, they were fully alert and ready to tangle with each other at all times.
But what surprised Viscount Krevis was that after returning to the capital, Hugh Nordin did not bring anyone to the manor to live in, but bought another mansion and lived there without saying a word , and no one was sent to submit the greeting post for the whole day after that.
What does it mean?He has already heard the rumors of the "transfer of the Hugh Notting Manor", and because he is worried that he will be despised by other nobles like before, he doesn't plan to ask for it back?Or did he make a fortune and forget about it at all?
Viscount Krevis speculated for a long time, and finally came to the conclusion that, no matter what the reason was, the reaction of little Hugh Nuoding could only prove that his personality had not changed in the past five years, and it was still the same as when he was in the capital. Timid and cowardly, anyone can round and flatten.
If you think about it this way, wouldn't he be the same as before when he became rich again, wouldn't he still be a big piece of fat? !
Viscount Krevis couldn't bear it anymore.
Not only did he no longer feel guilty, but he was even more excited than when he first moved into the mansion.
The Krevis family is now at the bottom of the aristocratic circle. Because they are not good at making money, and they are not good at making money, the family's economy is very difficult. It can be seen from the number of servants they can count on one hand. Just how poor the Krevis family is now.
Not long after they moved into the manor, they sold their original old house. Relying on the squandering of the money, the Kerevis family lived a good life for a while. When money became tight again, Kerevisi Si began to sell the valuables in the manor to make a living, but Hugh Nuoding's house had been raided long ago, and the remaining things were not enough for them to sell for a long time. Within two years, the manor was also empty, and Ke Ruiwei was desperate. Viscount Si can only earn money by marrying women from his clan to merchants.
But now there are no more women in the Krevis family. Even before Xiaoxiu Nuoding returned to the capital, Krevis thought about whether to bring those married women back to marry a second time, but that If so, even if they are accompanied by aristocrats, there may not be any businessmen who take the risk of taking their women.
Considering this, Viscount Krevis reluctantly gave up on this idea. Just when he was worrying about money, Xiaoxiu Nuoding was still as easy to bully as before, and even sent him to the capital by himself. How could he bear it? Do you want to take a bite?
You know, when Hugh Nuoding's family lost power, Viscount Krevis always regretted not being able to eat the first bite of meat before everyone else. One-tenth of it is enough for their family to eat and drink for a lifetime, and even become a famous nobleman again!
When Negrim was away, Viscount Krevis prayed countless times because of this remorse that time could be turned back. Now, although time has not turned back, the same opportunity is in front of him for the second time. How can he let go?If he still falls behind this time, Viscount Krevis feels that he might as well die!
So after confirming that Xiaoxiu Nuoding really did not intend to ask for the contract, Krevis immediately sent a greeting post.
As for the fact that no gift was prepared, it was a matter of course for Viscount Krevis. Although Miss Hugh Nordin, who married into their family, was dead, her grandson was still alive, eating his Bread, drinking his milk, of course he is still Hugh Nuoding's in-laws, little Xiu Nuoding's elder, plus the situation at home is really bad, no matter what little Hugh Nuoding should be considerate of him.
But who knew that Xiaoxiu Nuoding, a snobby eye, actually ignored his letter!
Krevis was jealous when he saw the gifts received by others. These gifts from Gaydon would be enough for them to squander for a while if they were resold, and this was just an ordinary return gift prepared by Hugh Nuoding!It is conceivable that if he can exploit the other party for a fortune - he will not ask for everything, ten carts of treasure will get five carts!Is it enough for them to eat for decades?
Such fantasies increased Viscount Krevis's determination to get back online with Negrim, and he was even willing to squeeze out a part of his living expenses to give gifts to the other party, but who knew there was still no reply!
When I handed over the post for the third time, Viscount Krevis no longer had such big fantasies, and it is hard to say what happened after that. A normal-sized gift should always have a normal-sized gift in return, right?Even if they are treated the same as others, they still earn money!
Who knows that even if it is this gift, there is still no response. It is the last money that Viscount Krevis can find at home. Even the Viscountess's pearl earrings are worn. Such a package of things, thrown away Going into the pool of Xiaoxiu Nuoding, he didn't even hear a sound, which made Viscount Krevis beat his chest and stamped his feet with remorse!
You don't want to talk to me, but you have a bit of backbone, return the gift!They don't even have enough food money for next month!
Even the viscount's eyes were red with anger.
The Krevis family is now gloomy.
Unlike most aristocratic families where the titled head of the family is responsible for all affairs, Viscount Krevis has no ideas of his own, no matter big or small, good or bad, he has to tell everyone to show his difficulty.And the head of the family took the lead, and this habit was also passed on to other members of the family. The Krevis family has not improved. In addition to the fact that the Viscount himself is useless, it is also because other nobles know the scandal of his family and feel that Krevis People in the family have weak mouths and don't want to make friends with them.
Viscount Krevis didn't know this, so at dinner, he told the current situation of the family again. When he heard what he said, the people who were still talking and laughing suddenly couldn't eat. When Reeves saw their dejected looks, he was even more unhappy. He only felt that this was a group of free-living guys, and he was completely dragged down by them, so he couldn't help but lose his temper, and killed several nephews and brothers. They were all scared away, leaving only his wife and his favorite second son on the table.
The Viscountess was also very sad. Who would have expected that the cripple of Hugh Nuoding's family would be able to make a fortune. Otherwise, if he had been kinder to him at the beginning, the little things he leaked through his fingers would be enough for them to spend now. Well, even her last pair of earrings are gone!
But Krevis was in a fit of anger, and she didn't dare to say such frustrating words as if she was blaming the other party, so she could only say: "Maybe he still remembers the matter of the manor, and he didn't dare to pursue it with us, so he deliberately avoided it." .”
The viscount let out a heavy breath from his nose and said, "Pursuant? What is the pursuit? He left the capital at that time and was entrusted to the border to become a lord. What use is this manor to him? Our Keruiwei Si also supported Xiu Nuoding in the past, and later he was used as a cow and a horse for them to order, and a useless manor as a reward, shouldn't it be right! This manor belongs to us! It's supposed to be like this!"
The Viscount was still a bit guilty at first, but the more he talked, the more he felt that he was justified, and finally he became more confident, and cursed: "The white-eyed wolf of Hugh Nuoding's family! The little bastard born of a whore! That cripple was gloomy when he was a child. I knew he was a bad breed, and he deliberately targeted us when he grew up! Why didn't he die at Hugh Nuoding's house back then!"
The Viscountess has been able to get along with the Viscount Krevis for so long, and she is actually the same way. When she heard the Viscount's words, she immediately felt that this was reasonable, but she is a noble lady after all, and she can't utter bad words. She just said bitterly: "The Hugh Nuoding family left him for nothing. He is really uneducated and has no aristocratic airs at all!"
Their second son, Diwali Krevis, couldn't help rolling his eyes at the table.
Of course he knew that what his parents said was totally unreasonable, not to mention how many years Hugh Nuoding's family had raised Krevis, and what sinful things did they do, that such a large manor should be paid for their hard work to pay off debts?Who are you kidding, just talk about it in your own house, you will be laughed to death by other nobles when you go out, anyone with eyes or no eyes will know who is not aristocratic.
But he will not persuade these two, because in his opinion, this manor is also theirs. Unlike the Viscount Correvis and his wife, they will feel guilty when they take advantage of it, and they have to find reasons to convince themselves, but in Divari's view, It's a matter of course to steal other people's things to support oneself. The old Krevis is in a dilemma now because he was not decisive enough to attack the little bastard of Hugh Nuoding's family earlier, or simply kill him directly. What's the matter?
He even looked down on old Krevis, who was useless and cowardly, and made his family miserable. If he hadn't had a title to inherit, he would have left them and gone out to make a living by himself.
He really couldn't stand the chattering between the two of them, he slapped the table, and said impatiently: "Okay, okay, what's the use of saying these things now, if you have the time, you might as well think about how to get money back from the bastard. "
He used to hang out with Lux Hunodin, because the other party was okay with facing him, so his personality was also domineering. He never called Negrim by his first or last name, and he always followed Luke Stan calls him little bastard, scum, or lame.
If other people spoke in this tone, Viscount Krevis would turn his back on him, but Diwali was different. Not only did he have ideas, but he was also the only talented person in his family. After studying in the academy for a period of time, although he failed to become a swordsman, he was nimble and had the talent to be an archer. Old Krevis hoped that his second son would be able to succeed with this talent, and he was a martial artist. There will be people who are willing to make friends with the nobles. The Krevis family may not be able to make a comeback, so they love him very much and have never been willing to lose their temper with him.
Hearing what Divari said, the Viscount had no choice but to soften his voice, and said: "What can I do? He lives in the house and no one is seen, can I still break in by force? I got it from him last time. The manor also stopped him when he was leaving in a carriage, so there is no chance now."
When the Viscountess heard this, she gritted her teeth and said like cutting flesh: "Why don't we show our friendship first? If he said he wanted to return the manor, he should see us, right? At that time, we can think of a way..."
"no!"
The two Krevises spoke at the same time, and the Viscount glared at her and said, "Repay? Why? This manor is already ours! Give it to him? Unless I die!"
When he got the deed, the Viscount already thought that the name of the manor was Krevis, so he would not hand over his things!Besides, compared to negotiating terms with Xiaoxiu Nuoding?Won't he sell the estate?How much money can I change?
Of course Diwali is not willing either, how big is their manor, this is face, it is capital to show off!How can I give it out?You know, even the manor where Pavoni's family lives is three times smaller than his family's!
Seeing that her husband and son did not agree with her words, the Viscountess also felt unhappy, and said, "Then what do you think?"
The Viscount was speechless, but Divari laughed and said, "Do you have to meet the little bastard if you want to get money?"
The Viscount and his wife were shocked, knowing that their son was used to it, they immediately understood what Divari meant.
When Divari used to hang out with Lux Hugh Nuoding, his hands and feet were not very clean. He took a lot of things from Hugh Nuoding's house, and because they were not found, he sold them for a lot of money and gave them to Kerui Wei The Si family brought a lot of benefits, so Viscount Krevis didn't care, and even felt that his son was capable, and now that Divari said this, it was obvious that he wanted to steal something from Xiaoxiu Nuoding directly!
It is not that Viscount Krevis has no doubts in his heart, but there is indeed no way out now, and he can't help but think about the ten carts of treasure that were transported into the king's capital. Hugh Nordin couldn't find it at all, and even if he found it, what was it to him?The expenses of their entire family for several years are nothing to Hugh Nuoding now, and he won't care if he finds out, even if he cares, he doesn't have the guts to track it down!
As long as they don't get caught on the spot, they don't have to be afraid of anything!
Viscount Krevis seemed to regain hope for a moment. He looked at his son expectantly and said, "Can you?"
Diwali seems very confident. His family is poor, but he has never treated himself badly. He has been doing his old job outside all these years. The little talent that belongs to the archer makes him invincible in stealing. , has never been found, and even if he is found, he is sure to escape, but it is so difficult to go to the little bastard's yard to get something?
When the Viscount and his wife called him like this, there were happy smiles on their faces, and they praised him hastily.
Diwali was very flustered, and said with a smile: "I'll go and have a look tonight, and hope that his ten carts of treasures are really treasures, and not mixed with mud and wood, making me look forward to it in vain."
That night, Divari went to the mansion where Negrim lived, and when he came back, his empty cloth bags were filled with gems and various jewelry. The Viscount and his wife couldn't keep their eyes open!
"My God! My God!" The Viscountess was ecstatic, and she did not forget to lower her voice, and put the jewelry on her body with trembling hands.
Viscount Krevis was so surprised that he was speechless, with all these treasures, what else did he need to worry about!Get rich, get rich!
Only Divari's mood was a little complicated. He had never looked down on Negrim who lived like a reptile in Hugh Nordin's house before. It is certainly a pleasure to steal something from the other party easily, but there is more in his heart. But jealousy and resentment.
It's just the trash he stepped on in the past. Why does that bastard live better than him?Why are you so rich?The treasures he brought back were enough for his family to live a good life for several years, but to Negrim, it was only a part of his wealth that was no bigger than the size of a little thumbnail!
The bag of treasures he brought back made the Viscount and his wife show ugly greedy expressions. Who knew what kind of mood he would feel when he opened the treasure compartment and found that it was full of treasures that were bigger and more valuable than these things!
The Viscountess wore shiny gemstone rings on her ten fingers, feeling that she had neglected maintenance, and her increasingly rough hands were about to become tender again, she almost shed tears, and said happily: "Enough! enough!"
"That's enough!" When he came back to his senses, Viscount Krevis couldn't help but swear, he looked at his son eagerly, and said, "Why did you only bring these back? He doesn't have enough treasures? "
When Diwali heard this, he couldn't help it anymore, and said: "I've already filled the cloth bag, how much more can I take? His treasures are going to be piled up like a mountain! The ten compartments are all filled, and there is not a little Gap!"
After that, he narrated all the scenes he saw in the yard tonight. Hearing the viscount's fascination, he couldn't help cursing: "Little Hugh Nuoding is so rich, but he is so stingy to us! Just treat him like this!" How can something be enough?! Son, let’s go again tomorrow! Bring a bigger bag and bring more things back!”
After hearing this, the Viscountess couldn't help but feel a little worried, and said, "Is there any danger? What if I get caught?"
Before the Viscount could speak, Divari snorted and said, "Caught? How is it possible! The guards he raised are all useless, they will be knocked down with a little drug, and they won't wake up even if there is a thunderstorm!"
"Don't worry, look at their reactions during the day," Diwali said, feeling extremely sour again, and said jealously: "I guess he won't find out, I'll go again tomorrow night."
The Viscount also nodded, and said: "Before he leaves the capital, don't touch these things, so as not to be discovered. After he leaves, with this money, we will immediately become first-class nobles, and there will be more It's someone who has caught up to flatter us!"
Thinking of the future life, the viscount and his wife were very happy. When the viscount dreamed at night, everyone nodded and bowed to him, and even the king looked up to him.
On the second day, there was no movement in Negrim. Divari went to the second time with peace of mind and brought back a large bag of treasures. The same was true on the third day. Viscount Si couldn't bear it anymore.
"Tonight, can you take me with you?" the Viscount asked expectantly.
Divari brought back so much treasure every day that the Viscount couldn't imagine what it would look like if there were ten carts of such treasure!However, the more Diwali described it to him, the more he wanted to see it with his own eyes. In the past two days, he had dreamed of rolling on the mountain made of treasure piles. Take a look at those treasures, roll around in them, and you will live your whole life in vain!
If he misses this opportunity, he will definitely regret it!
Viscount Krevis is also over 40 years old, and he is just an ordinary person with not very smart hands and feet. Divari actually has scruples in his heart, but this is his father after all, and how many good things have been said around him. He boasted eloquently, Divari was more or less coaxed out of some father-son friendship, and thought that the guards on Negrim's side were as stupid as pigs, even if old Krevis went, it wouldn't affect him What, I can move more things, so after a moment of hesitation, I nodded in agreement.
Viscount Krevis was so happy that he almost jumped up on the spot. They tidied up at night and tiptoed out the door.
Viscount Krevis didn't go out on weekdays, and he was very tired when he walked, but when he thought of the treasure he was about to see, he was so excited that he completely forgot about his physical fatigue.
The courtyard of the mansion where Negrim lived was surrounded by a stone wall, which made it difficult for old Kreves. It was Divari who gave him a hand to make him successfully climb in. They bypassed the drugged mansion. The guards went straight to the ten compartments with locked doors.
Seeing the treasures close at hand, the old Krevis was trembling with excitement. Divari also forgot how he reacted when he saw these treasures for the first time. The lock was opened in two or three clicks.
In order to open the eyes of old Krevis, Divari showed off and opened all ten carriages, and following his actions, those treasures were exposed to the old Kreves one by one, almost without a trace. Tell him to faint with excitement!
He walked up to him with weak legs, climbed onto the carriage with both hands and feet, and lay happily on the precious stones and gold, muttering to himself: "It's all mine...it's all mine..."
When Divari heard this, his face sank, he snorted coldly, awakened the Viscount in his dream, and said, "Be sober, we can only take part of these things, and the rest belong to the cripple. "
Seeing so many treasures, the old Krevis was not willing to let go. Hearing this, he twitched violently and almost died immediately from the blow. He said: "No, no..."
Seeing his appearance, Divari's eyes couldn't help but brighten up. He leaned forward and said, "Father, why don't we just keep going and kill that little bastard? As long as he dies, all these things will be destroyed." Ours!"
Old Krevis opened his mouth, his cloudy eyeballs moved, and suddenly he seemed to see a light, and he lit up again, and said: "Yes, that's right, as long as little Hugh Nuoding is dead, these things, these things It's all ours!"
When Divari saw these treasures, he was so jealous that he wanted Negrim to die. Seeing his father's promise, he also worried that he was just deluded at the moment, and would regret it after returning, so he confirmed and said again : "You are sure, you want to kill that little bastard!"
Old Krevis' eyes were clear, he nodded, and said firmly: "I want to kill!"
No matter what, he must not give up this wealth, he has already seen it!How could it not belong to him?It is absolutely impossible for him to give up.
Xiaoxiu Nuoding must die, he must die, this is his retribution for being stingy with the Krevis family!
Seeing him like this, Divari showed a satisfied smile on his face. He took out a pocket and handed it to the old Krevis, saying: "You can't act rashly today. If you want to kill that little bastard, you have to go back and plan carefully. Bring some things back today, it’s not a waste of time.”
After hearing this, the old Krevis hurriedly took the pockets, and began to fill them with a lot of things. After filling most of them, he felt that it was not enough, and there were more valuable things in them!So I poured out the bag again and repacked it.
After doing this several times, he was going to be tired. Those treasures emitted light that almost dazzled his eyes, but even so, he still didn't stop his movements until he began to feel that the light emitted by the treasures on the side was a bit strong It was so intense that he couldn't help squinting his eyes, wanting to see what was so bright.
However, as soon as he turned his head, he saw a scene that almost broke his liver and gallbladder——
The real owner of the treasure, the owner of the Xiu Nuoding family, Nigrim Xiu Nuoding, was leading a dozen guards, holding a magic lamp in his hand, and looked at him expressionlessly.
As a nobleman, he was caught stealing something on the spot. The old Krevis was completely frightened and froze in place, holding the bag and a string of sapphire necklaces in his hands, unable to move, but his son Divari He is a repeat offender, and immediately covered his face and ran away.
He moved so fast that to ordinary people it was as fast as the wind, but there was no one chasing him in Negrim. Only the handsome elf with his arrow and bow moved like a cloud and flowing water. As soon as he let go, he heard the sound of the attack in the darkness. With a scream, Diwali's calf was pierced by a long arrow, one end was nailed to the ground, and the other end remained in his leg, blood was bubbling, and he couldn't move a step further.
It seems that he didn't learn the archer course very well, otherwise he wouldn't even know how to escape from a marksman.
What?How to escape?Of course, don't run away, just kneel down and surrender.
Divari's screams finally made Viscount Krevis come back to his senses belatedly. He let out a few hoarse shouts from his throat, and stepped back step by step, but still clutched the cloth bag in his hand. .
Negrim almost laughed out loud.
Didn't Negrim know that Divari had come to steal things earlier?Of course he knew, not only did he know, he had even been watching in the dark.
And the reason why he didn't directly capture Divari was, of course, because Negrim was familiar with old Krevis' methods.
Back then, the lady from Hugh Nuoding's family who married into the Krevis family was considered to be the grandmother of Viscount Krevis, and the king was hurriedly expelled from the family by Viscount Krevis before he even expressed his intention to pursue it. So much so that he froze to death on the streets in winter, Nigrim really didn't dare to bet on how much affection Viscount Krevis could have for his son.
If Divari is captured and turned away to be expelled from the house by Viscount Krevis, then all his preparations will be in vain. Instead of this, it is better to wait for Viscount Krevis to come to the door directly—— He can't get rid of himself and his family, can he?Negrim did not believe that he had such a spirit of self-sacrifice.
Negrim waited patiently for several days, and finally caught this big fish today, so naturally he would not let him go easily.
Some guards had already walked out of the queue, and with Divari's screams, he pulled him out of the arrow and tied him up. Nigrim walked slowly to the old Krevis and asked softly: " Isn't this Viscount Krevis? You appeared in my yard in the middle of the night with a cloth bag full of treasures, what do you want to do?"
Old Krevis' cheeks trembled. He was afraid at first, but after seeing Negrim's face clearly, he didn't know where he had a burst of courage.
Negrim Hugh Nordin, the most useless member of the Hugh Nuodin family, the trash trampled by Lux Hugh Nuodin, the laughing stock of the entire capital!He didn't even have the guts to accept his own invitation!Can't he cope with such a thing?He has nothing to be afraid of!
Old Krevis stood up straight. He was obviously a thief, but he was as confident as a sufferer. He pointed at Negrim's nose, held back for a long time, and said, "Why do you hurt my son!"
Seeing that his useless father actually mustered up the courage to mess with the little trash of Hugh Nordin's family head-on, Diwali also felt that there was hope for his escape, so he howled miserably in a very cooperative manner.
Hearing this voice, the old Krevis became more reasonable and said, "Look at what you have done?!"
Negrim looked at the hand of old Krevis pointing at his nose, blinked in confusion, and said, "I thought you were stealing from me?"
His despicable behavior was exposed, and the face of old Krevis suddenly turned pale. He is a nobleman after all, and he needs face, but even if he is caught, he can't admit it right now. As long as he doesn't admit it, he will If they can quibble, it doesn't matter even if Negrim sues them before the king.
The old Krevis immediately threw away the cloth bag in his hand, and said nonsense with his eyes open: "Steal something? I am also a Viscount after all, and I need to steal your things?! Earl Hugh Notting, please show some respect!"
Old Krevis thought he knew Negrim's character, and that the other party was weak and fearful. As long as his aura was strong enough, little Hugh Nordin would naturally regress and would not pursue this matter any more. If you want to send gifts backwards, tell them to keep quiet!
But things didn't develop as he imagined. Xiaoxiu Nuoding did not get tough, but he didn't mean to let go. Instead, he said softly: "Since it's not stealing, why did you appear in my yard?" where? I didn't invite you in."
Old Krevis had already forgotten his fear just now, and said with wide eyes, "It's not because you accepted the gift but didn't want to see us!"
Negrim said slowly, "Are you here to see me?"
Seeing his reaction, the old Krevis thought that he felt that he was wronged. He immediately became proud, rolled his eyes, and instead of going down the steps, he said, "Oh, see you? You also have the qualifications? We just It was just a walk, and I accidentally entered here by mistake!"
Negrim was amused. He looked at old Krevis as if he were a monkey playing tricks, and said, "My yard is surrounded by a wall. How can you walk over the wall?"
Seeing that Negrim refused to let go, old Krevis was also a little anxious, and threatened: "Be sensible, Xiaoxiu Nuoding, let me and my son leave, and give me a car... No, five Che Caibao, I will not pursue this matter, otherwise the lawsuit will go to the king, and you will not be able to please!"
Negrim smiled, and said, "It's so strange, I was the one who caught the two of you stealing on the spot, why did you make trouble with the king, because I can't please you?"
Seeing that he was so stubborn, the old Krevis could only sternly say: "Be sober, little Hugh Nuoding, there is no evidence of death in such a thing as stealing. I said I was taking a walk, and I was just taking a walk." , so what if your people see it? They are people you hired, so of course they can’t be counted as witnesses. That’s right, it’s not the first time we’ve come here. There are your things at home, but you said it was yours. Is it yours? Who will testify? Even if it is produced in your territory, isn’t it sold out!”
Negrim looked at him and said slowly, "Your Majesty will not be deceived by you."
Old Krevis immediately laughed when he heard this, and said, "Of course His Majesty the King believes whoever he wants to believe. You should recognize your identity. You are the one sent to the border! Don't think that you are It’s great to earn some money on the frontier. The king will like you? No matter how unfavored we Kreves are, we have stayed in the capital for so long. Will the king believe your words? Even if the king knows that I stole your Things will definitely favor me, give up, you have no chance of winning!"
Even though that is what he said, the old Krevis actually did not have the confidence that the king would trust him. After all, he had not had the chance to see the king for a long time, but because of this, the more certain he wanted to say, the better. Only by making Xiaoxiu Nuoding afraid and dare not tell him can he be [-]% safe.
Probably people really have to be forced to unleash their potential. The old Krevis simply felt that he had never been so clear-headed in his life, and he said: "But it's different when my son is injured. To be honest, the wound on his calf matches your archer's arrow. If you don't want to cause trouble, you should let us go quickly and send someone to send the treasure to Krevis Manor tomorrow, otherwise... hum!"
"Krevis Manor..." Negrim laughed lowly, and said, "It's really interesting. I have to say, your performance today really opened my eyes."
Old Krevis was stunned for a day, and belatedly realized that there seemed to be something wrong with Xiaoxiu Nuoding's attitude.
Negrim glanced at him, his expressionless face returned, and he said: "Abel
