Not a Witch

Now that the time is not yet ripe, it is not a good choice to rashly set off a rebellion. It is better to use a shell and develop it first. Moreover, the old forces here have been wiped out, and the masses also have a good foundation, which is just used to accumulate strength.

Under the mask of the armor, Lorraine Hill quietly looked at the young lady in the distance, and already had an idea in her heart.

"I am willing to listen to adults' ideas."

In the face of this unknown knight, the eldest lady seemed to have endless tolerance and patience, and complied with the other party's request.

Seeing that everything was a foregone conclusion, the butler could only helplessly stamp his feet aside, pinching his nose to accept the addition of this foreign knight.

Perhaps from now on, the viscount of Wenlani will change.

The leader of the rebel army, the legal heir of the former nobles, the hero who saved the people, and the leadership with three identities will reunite this territory, and what kind of future will the people on this land usher in.

Chapter 130 Seven Mornings in the Territory

morning after a week.

In the bedroom of the mansion, Miss Geweier had just woken up, one maid was helping her with her hair, and the other was helping her with her dress.

Today, she is wearing a blue and black aristocratic dress with black gauze between the sleeves and skirt, covering the fair skin inside, making it hazy and beautiful.

The door was gently knocked open, and a younger maid walked into the room. She had blond hair, tied into a fluffy shape behind her head, and part of it was hidden in a white maid hat.

"Good morning, miss."

"Good morning, Iena."

Saying that, the younger maid walked to Geweier's side and stood still.

After Lorraine Hill joined this Viscounty, Iyena was also brought in by her. Now she is Geweier's personal maid, or half of Geweier's deputy.

In the imperial court, a personal maid of an aristocratic woman is a rather special position. It is not like a maid who is used by ordinary people to do chores, or a servant who completely serves others.In many cases, this position is filled by the daughters of minor nobles entrusted by the great nobles.

The daughters of these minor nobles have been educated since they were young. They help the hostess with some clerical work, or convey some wishes and ideas. They are the right-hand men of the great noble women.

Because they stayed by their side all the year round, they were trusted by those noble women, and sometimes helped them take care of certain properties, etc., so their power and status far surpassed other servants, second only to housekeepers.

Now Iyena is playing such a role. She will often stay by the young lady's side and help her with simple affairs.Of course, there is also an element of monitoring Geweier, after all, it is impossible for Lorraine Hill to completely trust Geweier.

Compared with completely indulgent trust, this kind of restraint to a certain extent will allow the two parties to cooperate better.

However, to Lorraine Hill's surprise, this Miss Geweier did not reject such behavior, she even knew the reason for it very well, and would tell Iyenna next to her about every detail.

"Has Mr. Unknown woke up, can we have breakfast together today?" Seeing that the grooming was finished, Geweier asked Iyena beside her.

The unknown knight lived on the other side of the same building, but the rooms of the two were at the two ends of the corridor, far apart.On weekdays, this unknown knight would eat and drink in the room, and would not eat with everyone. Occasionally cleaning the room was also done by Iyena, and no one else was allowed to enter that room.

"Master Unnamed has already woken up, this meeting should be guiding the reconstruction work with Mr. Guwas." Iyena recalled the scene of seeing Lorraine Hill as early as possible, and explained in this way.

"Unfortunately, I can't have lunch with Miss Gravell." Iyena bowed down to apologize instead of the unknown knight.

In the public announcement, Iyena was also the girl rescued by the unknown knight on the side of the road, and now she is homeless, so she had no choice but to join here.

Pursing her lower lip slightly, Geweier lowered her head in disappointment.

"Is that so..."

During the past few days of getting along, Iyena could see that Geweier had an extraordinary affection for this unknown knight, and even had a kind of blind worship.

Iyena was very puzzled by this, and once she even asked Geweier in private.

"Don't you resent Master Wuming? After all, he saved your father-killing enemy."

Geweier was sitting under the candlelight at that time, looking out of the quiet window, and answered slowly.

"Although it is so, it is not the father he killed."

"Besides, how can everyone be so sure that I must have a good relationship with my father?" Said the noble girl turned around, her eyes were like a starry sky.

"I am bleeding his disgusting blood, and I have to be grateful to him for giving me life, but feelings are not such a simple matter."

Afterwards, this noble girl is unwilling to say more.

These days, Lorraine Hill also asked the residents of the city about the past of the former Viscount Wenlani, and he knew something about the past.

The Wenlani family first originated in the middle of the empire. It is not a famous big family, and its ancestors did not have any outstanding military exploits. How did they obtain a large area of ​​sealed land?

You must know that the origins of many nobles in the southern border can be traced back to their ancestors. Most of them originated from the officers and generals who made military exploits during the southern expedition of the empire.

Although the Viscount is not considered a great nobleman, he is still a middle-class nobleman with a certain status, and he can pass on his family and write books.

This has to mention the several lucky moves of his ancestors. Perhaps the family lineage is really good. In that generation, Wen Lani's ancestors had an extremely beautiful younger sister. In order to get in touch, he let his younger sister Became a general's lover.

As a result, he also took a temporary post in the army by virtue of his nepotism, and got a lot of military merits, so he actually got a baron title later.But no matter how high it is, it will not work. After all, at that time, the Cangcui Empire was in its heyday, and the system was strict. At the level of Viscount, one had to report to the emperor and be strictly examined.

Later, relying on their status as barons, the Wenlani family began to build a manor here, and initially built a castle belonging to their own family.

After spending two generations in this way, he gradually integrated into the local aristocratic circle.After being awarded the title, the bloodiness gradually faded, and the nobles in the surrounding circle were no longer as brave as their ancestors, and naturally they did not reject the "waste" family like Wen Lani as they did in the past.

Because everyone is a waste.

A comfortable life is so comfortable that people don't want to take any risks to get bloody.

After the peaceful era, this generation of Baron Wenlani happened to be extraordinarily handsome, and finally pleased a certain young lady, and that young lady was the daughter of the Red Dragon Duke at that time.

As the guardian grand duke of the southern border, the power and prestige of the Baskar family is unparalleled, but even so, the duke who dotes on his daughter does not allow this marriage.

Afterwards, the old duke arranged another marriage for his daughter. As a price for his daughter's peace of mind, he allocated a small part of the territory, barely enough to get the status of viscount, and promoted Baron Wenlani to viscount.

At that time, the imperial aristocratic circle was no longer as glorious as it was in the early years, and it was Duke Baska who did this kind of thing, so naturally no one dared to say much.

As a result, the Wenlani family took this opportunity to ascend to the next level.

Since then, time has passed leisurely, and several generations have passed, and now it is the generation of Geweier's father.

This playboy also has a handsome appearance, flirting with flowers and grass on all sides, showing mercy everywhere, and fascinated many noble women.

It's a pity that his luck doesn't seem to be as good as that of his ancestors, and no lady from a famous family has taken a fancy to him, and as he got older, he gradually gave up the life of pampering himself and spending time and money.

"Mrs. Winlani? I haven't heard of this person for a long time. It seems that he passed away a long time ago." The residents of the city said so.

"Miss Gravell? Actually, I only found out about this name today. We have never heard of the viscount having such a beautiful daughter before."

"It's unbelievable that that lecherous and disgusting guy should have such a beautiful daughter."

"It's hard to imagine, but judging by the appearance, there is indeed a bit of similarity. The gods are really unfair to give that scum such a handsome appearance."

"I don't know about Ms. Geweier. I came down from the mountain only after I heard the orders of Brother Guhuasi. Those noble ladies, no matter how beautiful they are, it has nothing to do with me anyway. I only care about whether they will be in the future With such a heavy tax, can we have enough food?"

Under the call of Gu Huasi and a group of middle-level rebels, the residents who fled before began to return to the city in twos and threes. They were surprised by the special changes in the city, and then quickly settled down.

Even leaders like Gu Huasi are alive and well, so they will not be held accountable.The backlog of anger dissipated, and these people longed for a stable and stable life again.

Chapter 130: The Gradually Stable Territory

"Hello, my lord."

Walking in the city, passers-by took off their hats and saluted the unknown knight.They had more or less heard of what happened that night, and it was because of the existence of this hero that the cavalry finally restrained themselves and stopped killing indiscriminately.

They are more willing to trust this knight and the existence of Gu Huasi than the brutal noble who broke his promise.

After experiencing the flames of war, there are still ruins and burned sites in many places in the city, but a general order has finally been established.

Guwass found several leaders of the rebellion at that time, and everyone got together to gather a group of trustworthy people to form a temporary patrol team, carrying weapons, and maintaining law and order on the streets.

They are locals, so they naturally know which ones are hooligans and which ones are simple and kind farmers, and few people can fool them.

With these people, there will no longer be people who take advantage of the chaos to rob and steal on the streets.And those troublemakers who were caught are now also arranged to dig stones in the neighboring mountains to rebuild the city.Naturally there are people there to rule them.

Walking through the main road in the city, the knight came to the ruins of the castle, where many people are now surrounded.

Some of them were local spectators and curious people, and more of them were the subordinates of Jue Yuan.

The guards, under the command of Guvas, were removing blocks of stone bricks and rubble, and digging out the contents.Occasionally, buried money and treasures were found, and they were stored in a box beside them as funds for the future territory.

"You, and you, don't dawdle and be lazy." Gu Huasi swung his big ax and pointed at the guards in the field with one hand, forcing them to speed up.

Now that no one in the city can beat this old man, these guards naturally dare not disobey for the sake of their own lives.Besides, the eldest lady also made them obedient, so who else can they complain about.

As for the steward, he was also surrounded by several strong warriors in the small pavilion on the side, asking him to identify the excavated things one by one and make records.

"If you dare to cheat, I will let your head fall to the ground."

That day, Guvas scraped the butler Buwas's ear with an axe, and a few strands of hair were brought up, which made him tremble with fear.He saw Gu Huasi kill Viscount Wenlani with his own eyes, and he believed that killing him was nothing more than a simple matter, so he was naturally terrified.

As a last resort, the butler had no choice but to obey orders, classify these things one by one, and record them in the book.

The unknown knight said that if he fails to match up in the future and finds out that he has intentionally revealed and is not true, he will be held accountable.

Compared with the simple-minded Gouworth, the unknown knight caused the butler more headaches.If it weren't for him, the eldest lady would not have obeyed, and even let these rebels join the current Viscount.

This is the enemy, how can we stay together.

Although he saved his life because of this, the housekeeper was still frowning and had to work every day.

"Let me take a look at this wine glass. It should be a product of the year of the empire's scented catkins. At that time, it was popular to use enamel to burn bird patterns on the cup." The butler raised his glasses and observed carefully.

"Just tell me how much it is." The rough man beside him didn't care about it.

"Ahem, this is difficult to evaluate. If you are a nobleman who likes to collect, it is estimated that you can sell more than 10 gold coins. But if you can't find a good buyer, it will be difficult to sell." The butler frowned.

"Okay, just 10 extraordinary gold coins." The people on the side didn't care, and wrote directly in the booklet.

Looking at the numbers written down above, the housekeeper felt uneasy. Who else could he turn to when dealing with these things later? Maybe it would fall on him again.But what if you can't sell it at that time, it's hard for you to explain to these stupid big guys.

"It's just an estimate, it's hard to implement..." He was struggling for the last time.

"Huh? Are you lying to me?" The thick man beside him raised his eyebrows.

"No, no, how dare I lie to you. In fact... it's okay, just 10 gold coins." He wiped the sweat from his brow and quickly stopped the topic.

"The next one, what is the origin of this painting." As he spoke, a person carried a damaged oil painting.

In the painting, there is a young aristocratic girl, wearing a light yellow and white dress and a sun hat, running among the flowers, and there is a phantom standing far away in the corner of the picture.

It is a pity that the originally beautiful painting is now full of dust and stains, and there are traces of burnt yellow at the corners.

"This, this, isn't this Wen Lani's family heirloom?" Looking at the painting, the housekeeper felt very heartbroken.

The girl in the painting is the sister of the Wenlani ancestor, the one who brought everything to the Wenlani family, so the meaning of this painting is also very important. It is hung in a secret room all the year round, even if it is a housekeeper, it is only for many years Saw it at the party before.

At that time, in order to show the long history of his family, the previous Viscount Wenlani hung up this painting at the banquet, and then it was shown by everyone.

"Tell me, how much is it worth?" The person next to him didn't care.
