Phoenix Grand Lord

Now, there is irrefutable proof that Brother Phils is completely unconcerned about the loss of Blue Mountain Manor.

Since Nathanos left Blue Mountain Manor in the early morning, it was impossible for him to return to Merrill Valley at this time.

Therefore, from this point of view, Rowe can never be Nathanos.

Of course, if you study carefully and go to Blue Mountain Manor for on-site inspection, you will definitely be able to find some differences between "this Nathanos" and "previous Nathanos", that is, Can find some doubts and loopholes.

But the initiative of the review is in the hands of Brother Phils. Of course, Brother Phils will not make himself unhappy.

Who cares what the real truth is?

As long as it's beneficial to you, it's the truth!

With this irrefutable alibi, even if Edmund wanted to appeal, it would be of no use.

Brother Phils carefully put away the letter from the believer, and then said to Luo Wei: "Master Luo Wei, the truth of the matter has been clarified. You were indeed wronged. I have already said that you are from the church. good friend,

How could you be Nathanos? This is indeed a bad person slandering you. "

"Yes!" Luo Wei said with a face full of grief and indignation: "Poor me, the lord of Huanghua, Huanghua, my innocence was ruined by Edmund before I got married! In the future, which noble lady will be willing to marry What about me? Monk,

The church must severely punish the slanderers! "

Fiers nodded vigorously, "Don't worry, Mr. Luo Wei, the Holy Light will not forgive slanderers easily. In addition, as compensation, if you have any requests, you can also ask the Bishop and I can help you convey them."

Rowe immediately said: "Speaking of which, I really have a small request - when I defeat Edmund and regain the Marigold territory that should belong to me, please ask the bishop not to interfere."

Luo Wei didn't need the church's help, but he didn't want the church to hinder him either.

The church still has a great influence in the secular world. If the church objects, the situation will be more complicated.

Few enemies are better than many enemies.

Brother Phils smiled and said, "The church generally will not participate in the battles between your noble lords."

This sounds very noble, but in fact, the church rarely does not participate in the battles between noble lords.

However, Brother Phils said this not to show his loftiness, but to imply that Luo Wei, the bishop could meet Luo Wei's small request "under normal circumstances".

Smart people never speak straightforwardly, but leave blank spaces everywhere.

Luo Wei naturally understood what Brother Phils meant, and then went a step further: "In addition, I would also like to ask Brother Phils to support me in obtaining the title of Baron Marigold that should have been mine."

Brother Phils was slightly taken aback, "Sir Luo Wei, you really praise me. How can I, a small regional academic director, say something about this kind of title?"

This is not an excuse from Brother Phils, but it is a fact.

Although he is now the regional director of academic affairs, he is actually far away from the bishop's core power circle and can only be regarded as a small expatriate leader.

Luo Wei smiled and said: "Fiers Xiutu, I am very optimistic about you. And we can be considered friends, right?"

If I can take back the title of Baron Marigold, won't you, Brother Phils, have one more baron friend to grow up with? "

Brother Phils suddenly understood.

Only then did he realize that Luo Wei's words just now seemed to be about the title, but in fact they were about forming an alliance.

Once Rowe can become Baron Marigold, then Rowe will have him as an ally in the church, and he,

There is also Luo Wei as an ally in the circle of nobles and nobles.

This will be a win-win situation.

Of course, we can't say anything about forming an alliance, but that's what it means.

Moreover, Rowe never expected Brother Phils to help him regain his title of baron, but it was always good to have one more ally on the church's side.

Brother Phils frowned slightly, "Lo Wei, since you value me so much, even if my ability is limited, I am still willing to help. After all, I am not doing it out of selfishness, but from the perspective of Holy Light.

You really are better suited to rule Marigold than Edmund or anyone else. "

"Thank you, Brother Phils."

The two looked at each other and smiled tacitly.

It is impossible for Rowe to conquer Brother Phils like he conquered Knight Melvin, but he can use it.

The essence of power struggle is nothing more than making too many friends and too few enemies.

This move of arranging political resources in advance is definitely correct.

Of course, the "friend" mentioned here does not really mean a friend. At most, it can only be regarded as a partner in a power game.

People like Brother Phils should be used when they should be used, supported when needed, and abandoned without hesitation when needed.

Therefore, don’t expect Brother Phils not to abandon and betray him.

Both use him and guard against him.

"Then, Mr. Luo Wei, it's getting late - it's time for me to go back and give Mr. Bishop his life."

Now that the irrefutable evidence was in hand and the conversation was almost over, the most important thing was that Luo Wei had no intention of keeping him for lunch, so Brother Phils could only say goodbye.

"Oh, Brother Fels has come all the way here, and he left without even eating or drinking. He is indeed a hardworking Holy Light Messenger!" Luo Wei exclaimed sincerely.

"Ahahaha! I don't deserve it!" Brother Fels smiled so hard that his face blossomed.

Although he didn't have a meal, Luo Wei's words were much more useful than food.

The words "Messenger of Holy Light" were really useful to Brother Fels.

"Then, Lord Luo Wei, please stay! I'm leaving!"

"Okay, Brother Fels, I think, the next time we meet, you should be a Level 4 intermediate monk."

"Hahaha, the next time we meet, Lord Luo Wei will be the Marigold Baron!"

As the two of them flattered each other, the Hundred-Man Cult silently turned around and evacuated.

It was not until Brother Fels' figure disappeared at the end of the road with the Hundred-Man Cult that Luo Wei turned his horse back to Meilin Valley.

"Master!"

Knight Maiwen and Ruiwenzhi, who had been waiting at the other end of the stone arch bridge, came up eagerly.

"Master Luo Wei! You actually persuaded the Cult to withdraw!"

"God bless you, Master, you are so awesome!"

"That was the Bishop's Hundred-Man Cult, Master Luo Wei, you rushed up to confront them alone, and you made them withdraw with just a few words!"

"I must say it again, Master, you are so awesome!"

Knight Maiwen and Ruiwenzhi worshiped Luo Wei.

But Luo Wei smiled calmly, "It's nothing, let the bell ringers return to their respective jobs, the full-scale war is coming soon, we have to seize every minute and every second to work. "

"Yes! "

Knight Maiwen and Ruiwenzhi excitedly ran to pass on the order to the bell-ringing soldiers who were waiting for battle.

This time, the "Nathanos" incident was perfectly resolved.

The three Donnie brothers and their friends did not eat the meat buns in Merrill Valley in vain.

According to Rowe's speculation, Edmund's war preparations will be ready in two or three days at most, the army will be assembled, and the magician Plank will be able to gather with his magicians.

Edmund now only needs the magician Plank.

As long as Plank arrives, Edmund's assembled army of more than 2,000 people can be pulled out to start the war.

While thinking about what to do next, Rowe rode back to Merrill Valley.

Just after passing Dengshan Pass, a magic raven appeared above Rowe's head and threw a letter into Rowe's hand.

Roway When he opened it, he saw that it was from the slave trader Big Gold Teeth.

In the letter, Big Gold Teeth said that he had brought more than 200 strong slaves that Rowe requested through the border between Broken Star Valley and Marigold, and that they would reach Merlin Valley in a day and a half at most.

Then, Big Gold Teeth said that the number of guards at the border between Marigold Territory and Broken Star Valley Territory had suddenly increased. In the past, the toll only required 10 silver coins, but now, no matter how much he tried to persuade them, even if he said that he was sending slaves to the lord of Sanchalu Manor, he would not let him pass. In the end, he reluctantly paid 10 gold coins to pass smoothly.

The meaning was obvious, that was to ask Rowe to pay more.

How could Rowe not know about this little trick of the businessman?

However, the increase in guards between Marigold and Broken Star Valley did not seem to be a lie.

It seemed that Edmund had finally reacted Come, cut off the trade line between Merlin Valley and Broken Star Valley.

Even if Edmund did the right thing, his subordinates only wanted to make extra money, so Edmund's order could not be carried out.

Luo Wei smiled coldly, then found a pen and paper and wrote a reply to Big Gold Teeth.

Luo Wei said in the letter that all the expenses would be his, and asked Big Gold Teeth to hurry overnight, the faster the better.

After summoning the magic raven to send the letter away, Luo Wei returned to his lord's farmhouse, hugged Anne and Xia Liz who were sleeping soundly, and took a good nap.

That evening, after Luo Wei had dinner, he asked Xia Liz to summon 50 light cavalry bell-ringing troops to go out of Merlin Valley with him to "welcome" Big Gold Teeth.

Luo Wei didn't like slave traders like Big Gold Teeth.

But in the early stage, Merlin Valley needed population, and In a world like Regan where slavery is a legal system, finding slave owners to buy slaves is the fastest way to increase the population.

Before, it was a normal business. Big Gold Teeth asked for a high price, but the slaves that Hao Sui gave were also considered fine products.

But during the last transaction, Big Gold Teeth started to play tricks and treated Rowe as a sucker, and many slaves were just filling in the numbers.

Moreover, through Xia Liz's feedback during the training process, many of the new slaves were originally poor people, and were forced to become slaves after being caught by Big Gold Teeth's slave-catching team and signing a slave contract.

Among them, there were countless incidents of being killed, tortured, raped, and separated from their flesh and blood.

It can be said that Big Gold Teeth's hands are stained with the blood of the weak.

This time, Rowe finally had time to deal with this truly evil guy.

Luo Wei did not bring the tiger squat cannon, because Big Gold Fang and his 30-odd slave catchers were not worthy of being executed by cannon. Luo Wei only asked Xia Liz to bring 50 bell-ringing light cavalry, which was enough to deal with the defenseless Big Gold Fang.

Annie wanted to go, but because she slept too much during the day, the steelmaking and cannon casting work that Luo Wei arranged for her was not completed, and cannon casting was the top priority at the moment, so she was forced by Luo Wei to stay in the blacksmith shop to work.

Knight Melvin also wanted to go, but Merrill Valley needed a military commander to take charge, and Chariz was almost never leaving Rowe, so Knight Melvin could only stay and guard Merrill Valley.

Rui Wenzhi also wanted to go, so Luo Wei took Rui Wenzhi with him.

More than an hour later, the sky had completely darkened.

The long winter has entered the coldest midwinter season. The cold wind is howling, the ground is frozen, and frozen snow begins to fall in the dark sky.

On the road leading to Merrill Valley, there was an ordinary-looking farm carriage driving forward in the biting wind and snow.

The cart was pulled by an old horse with bald spots and hair loss, but this old horse was very stable. The extremely cold wind and snow and the low temperature that even deterred monsters did not affect the pulling of the old bald horse at all.

Every step the bald old horse takes will leave a deep hoof print on the hard and frozen ground.

The driver was an old farmer with gray hair and a worried face.

The old farmer's clothes were very thin and ordinary, and he had no animal skins, but his face was rosy and his temples were bulging.

His eyes were slightly narrowed, but the gaze in the slits was as sharp as an eagle, and the outline of the bulging muscles under the thin robes was faintly visible.

At first glance, this is an ordinary pedestrian scene.

But upon closer inspection, everything is extraordinary.

"My Highness----"

The old farmer bowed respectfully towards the carriage, indicating that he had something to say.

Even though the people in the carriage couldn't see him when he bowed and saluted, he still respectfully waited for the people in the carriage to allow him to continue speaking.

This is a basic servant etiquette. Only when the master allows it, can he continue to speak, rather than just opening his mouth to speak.

A voice as soft as water came from the carriage: "Uncle Tyr, I have told you many times. Please don't call me Your Highness when you are out of the palace. I don't want anyone to discover my true identity."

The old farmer known as "Uncle Tyr" sighed helplessly, "Okay, your highness, but there is no one else around here." The sweet voice in the carriage sounded again, "When there are no outsiders." You can't call me your highness either.

We have to play our roles well so that we don’t cheat. Remember, we should never reveal our identity unless absolutely necessary. "

Tier couldn't help but ask: "But what if we encounter a dangerous situation?"

"Haha," the voice in the carriage laughed like water, "Uncle Tier, what happened to us all the way from the Imperial Capital? Even when we passed through the Sunset Mountain territory, there was no problem! So don't worry!"

Tire shook his head, "Your Highness, should I say it or not? Your father, His Majesty the Emperor, just said that he was considering your marriage to the son of the Marquis of the West, but before it was confirmed, you escaped from the palace. This - -His Majesty the Emperor will be worried."

The gentle voice in the carriage said with a hint of resentment: "Then let him worry. Anyway, I won't marry someone I've never even met.

"But why are we going to Merrill Valley? Shouldn't we go to the territory of the Marquis of the West and see with our own eyes what kind of person the son of the Marquis of the West is?"

"Of course, that was the original plan, but——"

The people in the carriage paused for a moment and said softly: "I heard that there is a particularly delicious beer in Merrill Valley. I want to try it first. After I have tasted it, we can continue to the Marquis of the West to check it out. It’s not too late.”
