Chapter 79 Noble Marriage
After being named the hereditary earl, Martins had already resigned from the position of head of the Northern Legion, the court earl Zachary took over Martins' position, and the senior officials of the Northern Legion were also slightly adjusted.
But none of this has much to do with William.
Those who can serve as the head of the main army are either court nobles or people recognized by the king.
For a frontier aristocrat like William who has no upper-level connections, unless he has made great military exploits and accumulated qualifications far beyond ordinary people, his position as a captain will basically be at its peak.
He has already touched the invisible ceiling, and it is difficult for ordinary people to break through this ceiling and continue to be promoted.
After the war, Li Cha went to visit his father in Heihe Fort.
Seeing Li Cha, William was very happy and said: "Good job, your performance in this war of orc invasion has surpassed that of my father. Now the two of us have accumulated meritorious service, and we will soon be able to obtain a second baronial collar .Your third uncle also got some credit for this war, but I'm not going to let him contribute.
Last time, your second and third uncles gave almost everything to make the Harland family hereditary nobles.Of course, it is very important for the Harland family to become hereditary nobles for them and their descendants.But this time, it's Ni who was awarded the title, and it would be inappropriate to consume their merits.
Especially your third uncle still wants to continue to develop in the army, and you need meritorious service to exchange breathing techniques and potions, so I can't support you this time. "
"Don't worry, father! I'm actually not in a hurry to become a hereditary baron, and I understand Third Uncle very well."
Seeing what Richard said, William laughed heartily and said, "I'm very happy that you can say that. This time you come to Heihe Castle, I have one more thing to discuss with you."
"whats the matter?"
"Li Cha, you are nineteen years old and you are married at your age. A few days ago, the head of the legion sent someone to bring your granddaughter to marry you. If you agree, a banquet will be held at Earl Martins' house tonight, and we will meet at that time. Get ready to get engaged."
Hearing this news, Li Cha was a little surprised for a moment, but he was a very assertive person, and directly objected: "Father, I have someone I like."
"Is it Baron Sophia of the Stopa territory?"
"You know, father?"
"You are often together, and Wendy has also written to me. Of course, Baron Sophia is also very good, and she is a marriage partner. The Stopa territory borders us, and marrying her is a good thing for the development of the territory. Etc. After my death, I will make you the heir of Harland's domain. In your son's generation, you will be able to merge the three baronies into one viscounty.
Listen child, Sophia may not be willing to marry you.We are aristocrats, and marriages can often be complicated, with a large number of interests involved.If Sophia marries you, the Stopa territory will be annexed by our Harland family in the next generation.
Sophia is not the only one in Storfland. For a baroness, the best way to protect the family territory is not to get married, and the second is to recruit a capable ordinary person.Marrying you is not the best choice for Sophia. "
"Father, don't worry, I will take care of this matter. You will definitely see me get married by next spring at the latest."
After receiving Wendy's letter and knowing that Richard and Sophia are very close, William has been worried.
Li Cha has been worried since he was a child, and William seldom communicates with him.
This kind of gloomy personality keeps many things in his heart, and he might like to go to extremes.
Besides, Li Cha is still so young and inexperienced in the relationship between men and women, so he can't bear the blow of a broken relationship.
If he can't get along with Sophia, William is worried that he will give up on himself and resist marriage.
Marriage between nobles is very important.
Especially for new nobles like the Harland family, marriage is related to whether the Harland family can integrate into the noble circle.
In addition, marrying a nobleman can also improve the bloodline of the Harland family, making it easier for future generations to awaken the knightly bloodline.
Ron and Barron were already married, and his wife was also an ordinary person from a professional family, without knight blood.
There is no hope for their marriage.
Besides, Barron had already died in battle, Ron's children were six or seven years old, and the relationship between the husband and wife was good. It was impossible for William to let Ron divorce and marry a noble lady.
If William did this, it would only shame the Harland family among the nobles and become the laughing stock of the nobles' chat.
Mrs. Ola's children were too young for engagement.
The marriage of Hayden, Richard, and Wendy is a top priority for the Harland family.
Hayden's marriage has been confirmed and will marry Baron Paul's daughter.
Baron Paul is an old comrade-in-arms of William. His territory borders on Baron Harden, located in the south of Baron Harden, and belongs to the province of Gascoigne.
Wendy disliked marriage very much, and quarreled with William whenever this topic was brought up.
She is now a magician, an important figure in the Harland family, and she has great autonomy. Thinking of this daughter, William has a special headache.
After hearing Li Cha's assurance, William let go of his worries.
At the same time, William's words made Richard make up his mind, and decided to talk to Sophia directly after returning home to see Sophia's opinion.
Although Li Cha is only 19 years old, his real mental age is over 40 years old, and he was not a person with a love brain in his previous two lives.
If Sophia doesn't object, Li Cha will marry Sophia directly.
If Sophia is unwilling, Li Cha is also unwilling to wait, and find a suitable partner to marry as soon as possible.
It could be Count Martins' granddaughter, or someone else.
As long as it's not too ugly, you can see it.
After a long period of genetic selection, most of the aristocrats are not ugly, and their average appearance is higher than that of ordinary people.
Especially in the baron class, most of the court ladies are beauties in the territory.
Their descendants are even more handsome than the great nobles.
Great nobles often choose their wives, husbands, court ladies, and guardian knights. They often consider their interests, and they don't pay too much attention to their appearance.
At the level of the hereditary baron, the original spouse will only consider the interests, and the court lady will not have much interest to speak of, and will only choose good-looking ones.
Generally speaking, the children of low-ranking nobles tend to have better-looking children.
Li Cha's requirements are not high, but his own conditions are very good.
He will soon become a hereditary baron, and after this war, he is also well-known in northern Xinjiang.
Li Cha had killed two orc captains at a young age, and he was also an outstanding talent in both magic and martial arts.
Women in northern Xinjiang like strong warriors and heroes of war the most.
Even the hereditary earl wants to marry Li Cha.
Earl Martins, what he likes is Richard's heroism.
Otherwise, the hereditary earl would not marry the Harland family, which has a shallow foundation.
