From pioneer lord to king

The marriage between Ryan and Aisha was settled in this way, at the end of the month, but it was not a formal wedding, but an engagement.

Although it's just a political marriage, Ryan still hopes to give Aisha a beautiful wedding, not only because of the powerful family behind her, but also because of herself.

Aisha is a good girl. From the public's point of view, marrying Ryan is indeed wronging her. After all, with her identity, qualifications, and appearance, as long as she speaks out, suitors can line up from the southern border to the capital.

Don't say that he is a viscount with little background, even if he is the heir of an earl or even a marquis, she is worthy of it.

It was indeed a kind of luck that Ryan was able to marry her.

Such a girl should not be let down, and deserves a grand wedding.

The engagement ceremony will be at the end of the month, and the time can be said to be very rushed. After all, according to etiquette, engagement needs a notice period of about 30 days, and Ryan only has less than [-] days now.

Everyone in the castle started to get busy. Engagement is a big event for Ryan, and it is even more important for the territory, because it means that the territory has a mistress.

Ryan also took time to visit the Viscount Marton. After all, the two families will be related by marriage in the future. Anyway, Ryan should also visit his future father-in-law.

As soon as he met Cheers, Ryan showed a wry smile and said: "You and my mother really caught me off guard. The time is so tight, I really wronged Miss Aisha."

Cheers didn't seem to hear the complaint in Ryan's words, and said with a smile: "Time is tight, let's keep it simple. After all, the expedition is imminent, and that is a life-threatening event, so we should prepare well."

"Where were you conscripted this time?" Ryan didn't come to Xingshi to inquire about the crime. Since the other party wanted to pretend to be stupid, he naturally had to change the subject, after all, he was the future father-in-law.

When it came to business, Cheers' face suddenly became serious: "I was conscripted to the western region to lead a mixed army."

"Western Territory? That's great. I was recruited to the Ninth Legion of the Western Territory. It seems that I can fight side by side with you again." Ryan immediately beamed with joy. The Western Territory is the main battlefield facing the orcs, and there is one more reliable ally. The chances of survival are naturally greater.

"Ninth Legion?" Cheers frowned when he heard that.

Seeing his solemn expression, Ryan couldn't help saying: "What's the matter, is there any problem?"

Cheers looked around, and waved his hand to set up a vindictive barrier, isolating the entire room.

Seeing that the other party was so serious, Ryan's heart couldn't help but hang up. Could it be that there is a pitfall in his errand?

"Lei, a few days ago, news came from the capital. This time, we are not only going to face the orcs, but His Majesty the King is going to launch the fourth Kuwait campaign. The Ninth Army of the Western Region is on the list!" Cut Ernes said in a low voice.

"What?" Ryan immediately raised his volume, then reacted, and lowered his voice: "Your Majesty, are you crazy? The orcs have already made us breathless, and now they are going to war with the Kingdom of Andis. Isn't it a joke!"

The battle of Kuwait is what Ryan is familiar with. When he first came to this world, he was conscripted to participate in the Northern Expedition. The main battlefield was in the Kuwait snow field. Because it was the third major battle between the two countries, it was also called the Battle of Kuwait. For the "Third Battle of Kuwait".

And now, it's time to launch the fourth time.

Fighting on two fronts is a big taboo no matter what, not to mention when facing a strong enemy, it is a way of death. If one is not careful, the country will be destroyed.

Moreover, orcs are the common enemy of all mankind. In the war of orcs, the Kingdom of Andis, which is on the same line, is a natural ally of Tistan.

At this time, the fourth Kuwait campaign is launched. Isn't this backstabbing the allies?At that time, how could Tistan gain a foothold in the Human Alliance, so he blurted out the phrase "sick".

Chelsea didn't care about the disrespect to the king in his words, and continued: "Ray, the situation this time is different from the past.

The snow disaster is a disaster for the orcs. They will lose at least one-tenth or more of their population, which will lead to a decline in their overall strength and represent insufficient logistical support.

Just some time ago, the top leaders of the Human Alliance had a secret meeting. They planned to take this opportunity to concentrate all the strength of the human nations and inflict heavy damage on the orcs.

Therefore, this time it is not just a war between our eastern kingdom and orcs, but a race war between humans and orcs!

This time, our pressure will be greatly reduced. As long as we withstand the first round of the orcs' offensive, the reinforcements from the western countries will appear on the side of the orcs through the Kingdom of Kaia, and it will be time for us to counterattack. "

Ryan suddenly realized that it turned out that the human western countries were about to make a move.

Although the orcs are powerful, they are still inferior to the humans on the entire continent. What's more, they have experienced a snowstorm this time, so they are even worse.

It's just that, although the human kingdoms were all born into the Dawn Empire, they have always been in a situation of fighting on their own. It is not that the orcs have not experienced snowstorms in the past, but the human kingdoms of the east and the west have never joined forces.

This time, for what reason, the scattered human beings joined forces, which is too abnormal.

However, with Ryan's current connections and status, there is no answer to this matter after all, but he still has more doubts: "Since this is the case, then the Kingdom of Andis is our ally even more. At this time Launching a war is destroying the alliance, and the consequences are very serious."

Human alliances are rare. If Tistan backstabs allies at this time, the alliance will become a joke, and it may even collapse on the spot.

If the siege of orcs is delayed, then Tistan will be the sinner of all humans in the continent. By then, the siege of orcs may become the siege of Tistan, and the fun will be great.

"Your Majesty the King is sure to do this. First of all, the Kingdom of Andes was established by the slaves of the Dawn Empire. The Alliance has always recognized them, so they were not invited to this Alliance meeting.

In addition, their behavior style is too barbaric, relying on the special geographical environment to provoke troubles everywhere, and the surrounding countries have been offended all over the place.

Among them, we and them have been long-cherished wishes for hundreds of years. They still have part of the land that they have occupied by us. His Majesty the King is playing this time in the name of recovering the lost land, and he took the initiative to ask the alliance to bear one-third of the reinforcements. One military expenditure.

So the alliance turned a blind eye to this, after all, Andis is really unpleasant. "Cheers knew all about the twists and turns, and quickly answered Ryan's doubts.

Thinking about it, King Constantine II has always been regarded as the hero of the generation, how could he make these low-level mistakes, since he raised it, it is naturally foolproof.

But this is a pain for Ryan. He originally thought he was fighting the orcs in the west, but now he has to go to the bitter cold of the north to climb ice and lie on the snow.

My life is miserable!
"Hey, it seems that I have really been tied to the North Territory all my life." Ryan said with a wry smile.

"Don't be too pessimistic. Although the northern border is bitter and cold, it is not as dangerous as the western border. After all, the orcs are recognized as the strongest infantry, but there is no one to take care of them on the battlefield. You must be more careful. I don't want Aisha to be a widow. "Cheers exhorted solemnly.

"Don't worry, I will spare my life more than anyone else, and I will triumphantly." Ryan is still quite confident in himself. If you hit Andis, wouldn't it be easy to catch?
"Just as long as you're sure." That's what Chelsea actually said. He still believed in Ryan's ability, otherwise he wouldn't have tried his best to make a marriage at such a juncture.

He was very optimistic about Ryan. From the first meeting, he knew that Ryan was not a mediocre person, and the next few years did confirm his conjecture.

Not only did Ryan manage the territory flourishingly, but his title also rose rapidly. Who knows if he can create another miracle in this battle?
The momentum of development is too strong. If Ryan is not tied together now, the Marton family may not be qualified in the future.

"By the way, is Miss Aisha at home?" Although Ryan hadn't met Aisha since the last time he left in the capital, they still communicated occasionally.

Last year was Aisha's graduation season at the Academy of Magic. She didn't choose to continue her studies at the academy, so she finished her studies and went home before Zhengdan last year. That's why he asked this question.

The two of them are going to be tied together soon, they are all here, and naturally they will see each other if they have the chance.

Cheers said with a smile: "Of course I'm here. She's in the study right now. You know, she loves to read and doesn't like to be disturbed during the period, so I didn't notify her of your arrival. Don't be offended."

Ryan quickly waved his hand and said: "You are serious. I am also a person who likes to read. I also don't like being disturbed by others. It's just a bit regretful. After all, it's been almost a year since the last time I left the capital."

"Hahaha, others can't disturb you. If it were you, I don't think Aisha would be angry." Cheers winked at Ryan and said in a serious way.

"what?"

----

Chelsea's study room is naturally one of the most confidential places in the entire castle, and the old butler withdrew after bringing Ryan there.

Ryan stood in front of the closed study door, hesitated for a moment, and finally raised his hand and knocked on the door lightly.

Aisha, who was immersed in the sea of ​​books, frowned slightly, but still put down the book in her hand, stood up and opened the door.

The door opened, and Aisha was obviously stunned the moment she saw Ryan.

The two looked at each other, and the atmosphere became a little delicate for a while.

After a long time, Ryan broke the deadlock and said, "Long time no see, Miss Aisha, congratulations on successfully graduating from the Academy of Magic."

Looking at Ryan's gentle smiling face, Aisha's face inadvertently turned rosy. She fiddled with the hair on her temples a little awkwardly, and said in a low voice, "Thank you."

"I have something to do with His Majesty the Viscount. I will come to see you by the way. I hope I didn't disturb you."

Aisha shook her head quickly and said, "No, I'm just reading."

"You need to be quiet when reading, don't you? However, since the mistake has already occurred, please give me a chance to make up for it. Can you invite the lady to go out for fun?" Mr. Ryan invited.

"Ah, now?" Aisha was a little taken aback, but she finally agreed.

The two walked on the street together, because this winter was colder and snowflakes were still falling, so there were no people on the street, otherwise the rate of turning heads would be extremely high.

This is not the first time that they have been alone together. Before that, they often went shopping and chatted together in the capital, but for some reason, both of them felt a little strange in their hearts, but they couldn't explain why.

At this time, it is necessary for the man to stand up. Ryan took the initiative to stir up the topic. The two of them were already able to chat, but the first two of them couldn't stop talking.

With more communication, the feeling of unfamiliarity is reduced, and the shoulders of the two are getting closer and closer, and they are almost stuck together.

Smelling the faint fragrance emanating from the girl's body, Ryan's heart was about to move. He tentatively touched Aisha's little hand, and Aisha immediately retracted her hand behind her as if she had been electrocuted.

A pretty face was also stained with a layer of blush, and she didn't know why, before the two of them bumped into each other by chance, they didn't feel anything wrong, but today, why did they feel so...subtle?
Seeing that the other party reacted so strongly, Ryan felt a little annoyed for a moment. After all, the relationship between the two has not reached that point, and it should be done step by step.

But when he glimpsed Elsa's face out of the corner of his eye, his heart beat inexplicably quickened.

Aisha was originally born to be overwhelmed by the country, but now, there is a little more blush on her face like suet jade, and her head is slightly lowered, which has a different kind of beauty.

Rao Ryan has good concentration, so he couldn't help but look straight.

He thought to himself: "Anyway, the matter has been settled, my wife, what's the point of holding hands?"

Ryan gritted his teeth, stretched out his big rough hand and tightly held Aisha's jade hand hidden behind him.

His sudden attack startled Aisha, and feeling the warmth from his hand, Aisha's heart suddenly jumped like a deer bumping around.

Her face also became rosy at a speed visible to the naked eye. She struggled a little, but Ryan held it tightly and couldn't break free.

The two looked at each other again, and Aisha saw the determination and a little bit of tension in Ryan's eyes. She slowly stopped struggling, but felt her face was a little hot.

Seeing her acquiescing to his actions, Ryan's tense body finally eased. Although he looked calm, he was still quite nervous. After all, the two had no emotional basis at all. If the other party directly shook off his hand, it would still be It's embarrassing.

Fortunately, Aisha saved face, so Lord Ryan managed to save face.

The two just strolled down the street hand in hand. After a while of silence, they resumed the interrupted topic again.

It wasn't until night fell that Ryan took Aisha back. After all, the two were not married yet, so we should pay attention to the impact.

A few days later, Ryan said goodbye and left. The distance between the two became farther, but their hearts seemed to be closer.
