Lord of Rot

Chapter 7 The Golden Chariot in Life
The young baron was not magnanimous, but he didn't want his stepmother to die too easily. Even if his stepmother really won the favor of the iron hoof knight with her personal charm, it would be useless to save her life, because Li Qi was a porcupine collar baron, a A landed baron, Alsop's wife as a knight could never threaten him again.

"I, I, I!" Alsop stood up nervously. She had also heard the legendary story of the Iron Oxhoofed Knight.

There were tears in her eyes, and her voice was crying, which was much more realistic than when she wailed for Li Qi: "My lord, I... I still want to take care of you, I want to stay in the porcupine collar, I don't I don't mind being young and getting old, I just want to be here, I..."

"But I mind." Li Qi stood up with a smile on his face: "I mind you wasting your youth. If my father was still alive, he would definitely not allow this to happen."

"But..." She really wanted to curse Li Qi, but she knew she couldn't. Maybe the other party was waiting for her to scold him, and then she could find an excuse to marry herself to a certain farmer. day.

In the porcupine collar, Li Qi is the lord, and as a guest, Red Rose can only make corresponding suggestions, and cannot influence his decision.

"How about this?" Seeing what the stepmother was going to say, Li Qi interrupted her and said, "I heard that your father is Lord Leopold's knight, and Leo is not young, why don't you let him go to Donggang?" City, ask your father to let Leo become his squire, Leo can serve Lord Leopold with him, and maybe one day he can become a knight by his own efforts."

In the succession of the great nobles, the eldest son becomes the lord, and although the second son cannot own a castle, he can also have his own fields, an army, and even a title of title.

But for a small noble such as the Baron of the Porcupine Collar, the eldest son inherits everything, and the second son may only get some money, or he may leave the house completely.

The only choice for the second son of a small nobleman is to become a servant of a certain nobleman to carry a gun for him.

It is even possible to start from scratch, like the former Porcupine Baron Leard, and after decades of hard work, he may be canonized by the Duke as a baron and own his own territory.

Some of the second sons can marry noblewomen who own fiefdoms and turn themselves into masters, but that is definitely not a path that a 12-year-old boy can take.

In general, as the second son of a nobleman, Leo's promotion speed will be many times faster than that of ordinary people.

But now it is a peaceful age, and the ladder of promotion has disappeared with the chaos. It may take many, many years for Leo to become a knight.

"Thank you for your kindness." The stepmother bowed her head and said, when Li Qi decided that she would marry the iron hoofed knight and Leopold was the matchmaker, she knew that she had to go. It's too late to vent her hatred because she has to worry about not dying under the iron hoof, and then she has to think about how to save her life.

Li Qi has great confidence in his vicious stepmother, maybe she can capture that iron hoofed knight with her charming charm?

However, considering that it was Iron Rock City, if a middle-aged lady wanted to show her charm and capture a knight in a "sacred place" full of beauties, the success rate was probably as low as traveling through another world.

Evangeline is of course willing to agree to come down and act as the presiding judge to "punish the evil and promote the good". Compared with the vicious stepmother, she has a better impression of the 'kind' baron who suddenly changed his state.

"I can walk with Leo all the way, and I can also take care of him on the way," Ewen Jielin said.

She understood that this was Li Qi's real "magnanimity". At least he gave Leo a chance to improve. Although it may take more than ten years for Leo to become a knight, and even longer to become a baron, he did not embarrass himself after all. He was not the younger brother, but gave him a long road to promotion, although it was long but at least there was hope.

In her view, this is a gift.

In Li Qi's view, this is not a gift, he just wants to get rid of all irrelevant people as soon as possible, even if he finds a chance to kill his stepmother, can he still kill his own brother?So leave as soon as possible and don't delay refining the corpses yourself. If those things are found, it will be very troublesome. It will attract the church, and maybe you will be hanged or burned to death the next day.

As for what will happen in a few years or even ten years, Li Qi hasn't thought that far ahead.

Evangeline Leopold left with her distraught stepmother and young Leo, along with Leo's manservant, stepmother's maid, Leo's bay horse and a large old cart. luggage.

Before leaving, Li Ao yelled at Li Qi the family motto "Sticks all over", he couldn't take any of his father Lild's inheritance, even the hammer of the manservant couldn't go far with him, and in the end he would only marry his stepmother as a dowry Entering Tieniuchi's family, only this family motto that he didn't understand at all went away with him, maybe he would go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, or accompany him to wipe the gun for the knight master, just like this "covered with thorns" Wipe forever.

"It's full of thorns," Li Qi also replied.

The porcupine collar is too desolate, and there is no church. Without the blessing of the church, you can't even get married here. Evangeline will take Alsop to Iron Stone City. If she comes forward, the iron hoof knight will just obediently pick up his new wife. Go home, and promise to protect her in front of the four gods for the rest of her life...at least until he lifts his iron hoof to kick her.

Li Qi euphemistically told the other party that he could not go with him, and that the injured Baron could not leave here, but he would pray in his heart to bless the other party.

The stepmother definitely didn't want to see Li Qi at her wedding.

Leo is also a little sad. He wants to be separated from his mother, leave the castle where he has not lived for a long time, and go to a strange city to find the grandfather he has never met. The future of the little boy is uncertain.

But who is different?

Li Qi, who traveled through another world, also felt confused.

Evangeline Leopold is very beautiful. If there is a chance, he really wants to win her a kiss, but people have to be practical. I am afraid that there will not be many chances to meet again after parting this time. Even if they meet again, they may not remember each other. Own.

The golden guards of the Leopold family protected the carriage pulled by the golden mule as it drifted away. The farmers along the road stopped their work, raised their heads, and watched him go. Some children who heard the news had already stood The roadside is waiting for them to pass by. This will be the most noble carriage they have ever seen since they were born. It will also turn into a story and appear on their dining table, from today until they die on their beds.

Maybe I will tell my children and grandchildren that it was a golden chariot pulled by a golden horse, guarded by soldiers wearing golden armor, passing through their lives.

Looking at the slowly setting sun, Li Qi suddenly realized: "It's time for my teacher to come out of the coffin too."

He still has work to do.
