Chapter 584
Mrs. Vin Diesel's plan started to be laid out step by step, and even South, a non-staff person, was commanded by Mrs. Vin Diesel without touching the ground.

At the gate of the other courtyard, Sous took advantage of the moment he passed by the middle-aged fat butler, and asked:
"What the hell is Madam going to do? Investigate so many people's family background, including some women and children!"

The middle-aged fat housekeeper chuckled and said:

"I don't know what Madam is going to do, I just need to know what Madam wants me to do and I will do it!"

Then he gave South a meaningful look, and hurried into the manor.

South shook his head and walked out of the manor. This time, his goal was to determine the specific situation of a chef's family and summarize the chef's behavioral rules.

Without a name, Mrs. Van Diesel only gave the information that the chef is the chef of the Duke of Barrott's estate, but that's enough, isn't it?
Knowing the whereabouts of the chef's family, it is guaranteed to be able to control it at any time.

I also learned about the chef's rules of action, so I can guarantee that he can be threatened at any time!
Why didn't this Mrs. Vin Diesel just give the chef a bottle of poison, which killed the prince Barot, and everything she wanted would be at her fingertips?

After Sous complained in his heart, he still worked hard to complete his task.

Sous doesn't know where the chef's home is, so he only lurks near the Barlot Manor. Sous plans to follow the chef and find out where his family is while understanding the rules of his actions.

However, while Sous was lurking on a dense treetop and monitoring the side gate of the manor, he saw and heard some interesting things.

Two farmers, after working in the field for a whole morning, came to enjoy the coolness under this tree while eating at noon.

"In this damn weather, it doesn't rain even a single day. Carrying water to irrigate every day is not an option. Even if we are exhausted, we can't irrigate the entire field. When the harvest comes, the nobles won't care how much we have reduced production this year. They will only collect food according to the amount of previous years!"

Another farmer bent his back, took a sip of water, and sighed:

"Yes, if things go on like this, the grain produced this year will definitely not be enough to feed next year. It's good that the family has some savings and can still buy grain to survive. If the family has a large population, I'm afraid people will starve to death next year!"

Having said this, the two farmers sighed in unison, both worried about their future.

After eating, the two farmers got up together and prepared to continue to carry water.

"Work, work, and look good. We are better than those refugees who have no land to cultivate. As long as there is land, life will be better!"

"That's right, but it's a pity that we are not self-cultivators. We plant the land of the nobles. The rent is too expensive. If this is my own land, even if I am exhausted, I will water it all over, so as not to let these lovely The little Miaomiao are dying of thirst!"

Watching the two farmers go away, South was thoughtful.

"Luring them for profit is a good way to guide people's hearts. For these farmers, the best benefit is nothing more than a piece of land that belongs to them!"

Thinking of this, Sous's thinking began to diverge.

Suddenly, South figured out another purpose of Mrs. Vin Diesel's complicated plan.

She wants the land of the yeoman!
Soth suddenly realized!

This year's drought, and then Mrs. Van Diesel hoarded food, causing food prices to skyrocket. Those farmers who can't afford to eat, if they want to survive, the only way is to sell their fields!

And at this time, who will be the ones who still have grain to buy the fields in the hands of farmers?There is no one else but the Balotte family!

Controlling the fields in Balot's territory is tantamount to controlling the people in Balot's territory. At the same time, he is also firmly in control of the army composed of a large number of refugees that will appear next year.

"Great!"

Rao was Sous, and he couldn't help admiring in his heart, this Mrs. Van Diesel walked one step and watched three steps, the depth of the city and the clever planning were simply terrifying.

At the same time, there was an inspiration in Sous's heart. In this way, the conflict between nobles and commoners would intensify!
One year, South calculated, it should be enough.

Zhou Mo, who was still hanging around the imperial capital, raised his eyebrows. The bright germ in Soth's body had a tendency to continue to grow. It seemed that this little guy finally understood something and learned some necessary methods.

This improved Zhou Mo's mood, and even improved his attitude towards the Countess sent by the Noble Ministry.

"Ms. Hughes, the fruit in the palace orchard is very sweet, you might as well try more!"

After clapping their hands, a court servant brought a plate of brightly colored fruits, which made Countess Hughes a little flattered.

Reluctantly forcing a grateful smile on her face, the countess twisted her waist a little uneasy.

"Your Majesty Platinum, thank you for your hospitality, but regarding this list, please clarify your Majesty Platinum!"

Zhou Mo didn't seem to hear this sentence, he picked up a fruit on his own, took a bite, and enjoyed the taste of the sweet juice.

This let Countess Hughes breathe a sigh of relief. This Platinum Majesty is really invulnerable to fire and water, and invulnerable to swords and guns. Don't try to show any attitude from him.

"Ms. Hughes, have you heard that Her Majesty the Empress intends to hold an Imperial Knight Contest, and the rewards for the outstanding ones will be unprecedentedly generous, and the top few will be directly awarded the title of nobleman!"

This matter has been rumored in the imperial capital. I don’t know how many passionate young people have already started to prepare to show their skills in this conference. How could Earl Hughes not know.

"Of course I heard, and I also know that Your Majesty Platinum, you will be the chief judge of this knight competition. To be honest, there is no one in the empire who is more suitable for this position than you."

His Majesty Platinum can selectively talk to her about the topics he wants to talk about, but because of the unequal status, Earl Hughes cannot ignore any topic raised by His Majesty Platinum. This kind of frustration makes Ms. Hughes want to throw up her sleeves and leave. But he didn't dare, so he could only bite the bullet and talk.

"Does Ms. Hughes's family have any outstanding knights who want to participate in this conference? Almost all of the top ten will get the title of baron, No.1 may even be higher, and I want to share with you that Her Majesty the Queen may Seal a territory!"

Zhou Mo smiled lightly, his azure eyes shone with light, and in the eyes of Earl Hughes, this was the temptation of Chi Guoguo.

Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Earl Hughes tentatively asked:

"Your Majesty Platinum, what do you mean?"

Earl Hughes has several mithril-level knights as face leaders, and there is no shortage of manpower to participate in the knight meeting. If it is really possible to add a little area to her territory, Earl Hughes feels that she cannot refuse this temptation.

Zhou Mo reached out and clicked on the list in front of him, a list that hadn't changed a single word, and said with a smile:

"The Ministry of Nobility has the right to submit the heirs of the nobility. Ms. Hughes must be able to be entrusted to discuss such matters with the king. She must have a certain influence in the Ministry of Nobility!"

"Your Majesty Platinum, although the Hughes family has some friends in the Nobility Department, it has to be said that those who want to pass this list cannot be controlled by friends of the Hughes family!"

Earl Hughes made a gesture of resignation, speaking very sincerely, because this is a fact. After the three giants of the imperial capital, the Minister of Military Affairs, the Minister of Government Affairs and the Minister of Finance, united, the influence on the noble department is unparalleled.

Zhou Mo shook his head and said:
"I don't need someone else to make decisions for me. I just need someone who can come up with the list according to my wishes. Earl Hughes, this shouldn't be difficult for you!"

Earl Hughes' eyes widened sharply. Looking at His Majesty Platinum, he suddenly remembered that those high-ranking nobles who had great status and great influence in the Noble Department but had no real power, those people were all platinum. His Majesty's old subordinates!
What does His Majesty Platinum want to do?Will his influence cover the imperial capital?
"That's impossible! Your Majesty Platinum, this is the imperial capital, not the Principality of Platinum!"

Earl Hughes categorically rejected His Majesty Platinum. The imperial capital is the imperial capital of the nobles of the imperial capital. The founding nobles represented by His Majesty Platinum and the influence of the upper nobles are not allowed to appear in the imperial capital. This is the consensus of all the nobles of the imperial capital!
His Majesty Platinum, Sudiwen, this is to dig out the roots of all the nobles of the imperial capital!
"Don't be so excited, Earl Hughes, I believe that in this world, apart from the devout belief in the Holy Sea God, there is nothing that cannot be discussed!"

Zhou Mo raised a finger and said:

"Everything has its price, nothing is impossible in this world."

"Ms. Hughes, if the Hughes family doesn't do this matter, there will always be someone who wants to do it with so many nobles in the noble department. As far as I am concerned, no matter who does this matter, it doesn't matter, Ms. Hughes , are you sure you want to give up on me, Platinum King Sardwin's friendship with the Hughes family? Your generosity to Ms. Hughes?"

Zhou Mo was like a demon, whispering, trying his best to seduce the female nobleman in front of him.

Ms. Hughes wants to reject His Majesty Platinum once again cleanly, to show her loyalty to the nobles of the imperial capital and her determination to reject this matter!
But His Majesty Platinum wanted to be able to see people's hearts clearly, so before she could read, he interrupted:
"Don't rush to refuse, Ms. Hughes, you already know the purpose of me, Your Majesty Platinum Sardwin, and also understand what I want. You need to think about it. After rejecting me at this moment, you have become an enemy of the Platinum Principality." Are you able to bear the corresponding danger!"

Ms. Hughes' pupils constricted instantly. Yes, she knew the secret that Platinum would never allow the nobles of the imperial capital to know. If she did not agree, then what would be waiting for her?
The man in front of him, Platinum King Sudiwen, killed 26 high-ranking nobles, His Majesty Platinum, on the way to the imperial capital, and let her disappear into this world from the next moment. It's difficult!
This made Mrs. Hughes unable to say the refusal she had planned. She realized that after His Majesty Platinum revealed his purpose, she had no choice.

Taking a deep breath, Ms. Hughes whispered:
"Your Majesty Platinum, expressing such impolite threats to a lady should not be something noble you should do!"

Zhou Mo smiled happily when he heard this, knowing that the woman in front of him had already compromised half.

"Ms. Hughes, my Ms. Hughes, you are so innocent and cute!"

Sardwin said such a sentence in an aria, which made Earl Hughes smile wryly.

"Your Majesty Platinum, you should understand that if I don't have enough bargaining chips, I can't persuade my friends, nor can I ruin the future of the entire Hughes family because of my personal safety."

This is Earl Hughes asking for the price. Since he has no other choice, he naturally wants to sell it for a good price.

"Ms. Hughes, don't worry, this king will never treat any of my own people badly."

"You find a similar person to participate in the knight competition, and I will handle other things!"

Ms. Hughes immediately stated her request:
"I hope that the Hughes family's territory will not be violated, and they will get a share of the Platinum City's trade!"

"And, within the imperial capital, I need the protection of you or Her Majesty the Empress!"

Zhou Mo didn't hesitate, and immediately answered:
"No problem, when I get what I want, you will definitely get what you want, promise in the name of Platinum!"

After hearing His Majesty Platinum's promise in the name of Platinum, Ms. Hughes slumped on the back of the chair, looked at Sardwin weakly, and said:

"I was fed something by those people, so I took this job in a daze!"

With a laugh, Zhou Mo got up and left the reception room. After a few breaths, he appeared in front of Earl Hughes with a list:
"You only need to submit this list as a proposal, and ensure that it will not be suppressed by others. It is enough to be able to go to the aristocratic ruling meeting. After that, someone will naturally take care of it!"

"After you go back, don't say anything, just say that the king refused, and no one will doubt you."

Ms. Hughes did not take the list immediately, but asked with some hesitation:
"Although at this time, I shouldn't ask any more questions, but there are some things that I don't understand. I can't sleep or eat. I don't know if His Majesty Platinum can take pity on the woman's precious sleep time and tell me a little bit?"

Zhou Mo sat down again, didn't say if he could, but said:

"I know what you want to ask, but after you read this list, what you want to ask will naturally have an answer!"

Ms. Hughes just took the list, and after glancing at the names on it, her expression relaxed, and then she looked at His Majesty Platinum with some strange eyes, and said:

"Your Majesty's guard knights, court spies, as long as this list is sent to the noble department, it will be passed directly. We, no, they will not be blind enough to refute this list!"

The names on the list are all marginal heirs among the 26 nobles who have served the queen directly and who bear the brand of the queen.

"Things obtained because of others' concessions are not as reliable as those obtained by oneself, especially for the empress!"

Zhou Mo restored the majesty of His Majesty Platinum, and glanced at Ms. Hughes, aloof like a god.
