Rise of the Lord of Mount and Blade

According to the agreement with the Duke Aylmere, Richard visited the Duke’s manor again in the evening after the meeting.

The butler of the manor seems to have been waiting for him. After he confirmed his identity to the new guard guarding the gate, the bloated butler walked out and led Richard into the manor, compared to the last time he met. , Richard can clearly feel that the butler’s attitude towards him is more respected this time.

This makes him feel that status can really make a person’s attitude change drastically in a short period of time.

When I saw Duke Elmere again, there was a light smile on his face. When Richard walked in, he raised his hand and said, “Richard, you are here.”

“I’m here, Your Excellency.” Richard put his right palm on his chest, leaned forward slightly, and said respectfully.

“I want to congratulate you on being selected as the lord of the Mein collar.” Duke Elmir said with a smile. His smile seemed a bit dazzling in Richard’s eyes, and he immediately made a smiley tiger in his heart. s Mark.

But he still showed a flattered appearance on the surface, and quickly said: “This is all thanks to the Lord Duke and everyone’s contributions. If it were not for you, Mien Ling would definitely fall into In their hands.”

The Duke naturally knows who “they” refers to. He is very satisfied with Richard’s statement, nodded, with a somewhat meaningful tone, and said: “Richard, I think you should also follow you Your big brother knows what happened at the meeting, right? In Niang, the forces that disagree with us are very powerful…”

“What do you need me to do?” Richard Yi Listening, knowing that the highlight is coming, I quickly picked it up and asked.

He only hopes that the Duke will not ask him to do something unacceptable, such as being a thorn and so on, then he can only consider whether it is wrong to act like yang and Yin.

“It’s not what I need you to do, Richard, you also know that those greedy nobles are ready to take more power away from us. If we don’t fight back, they will continue. Go on wantonly.”

Richard nodded. Although he knew that Almere was farting, he still seemed to support him on the surface. Seeing that Richard had no objection, Almere continued: “In a few days The Queen of Heaven will invite you new aristocrats to the palace together to participate in the party, and then announce the transfer of vassal, then you will be a vassal from Duke Lelis to Cassius Garcia.”

Kasiu Garcia is the new Duke of Niang elected by the royal party. Richard has heard Basilio say that he originally thought he would automatically become a vassal of the Duke of Niang after he was conferred. , But now it seems that he should still belong to Olsson’s vassal, so it’s not surprising. Olsson’s promotion of him to the position of earl is not a big loss, after all, it is also a powerful vassal. .

It seems that he is misguided. No one would have thought that the king would still play this hand, turning other people’s de jure vassals into his own relatives, which would definitely cause Duke Olsson’s Dissatisfied, he was very curious about the Duke’s attitude towards this matter.

Seeing Richard’s stunned look, Elmir subconsciously thought he was shocked after hearing this, and explained to him: “I also only found out after the meeting, I think Duke Lelis He must have known about this, but he hasn’t moved. I think it may be King Your Majesty who persuaded him by some means.”

“What do I need to do?” Richard asked rhetorically.

“You don’t want to do anything now.” Elmeer shook the head and said: “Shortly after the war is over, your task is to make the Mein collar quickly recover and develop. After all, you are fighting against Bailey. The front line of the kingdom, after experiencing such a humiliation, the people of Bailey would not bear this tone.”

When he said this, he was also very sorry in his heart. He was thinking of Khaxu. From a landless royal family member to a duke, there is no other vassal who can easily deal with him except Baron, the Viscount Baron in his own country, but now the king’s operation directly interrupted their plan.

He is also very curious like Richard. What kind of benefits did the king give to let Duke Lelis suppress his dissatisfaction. At the same time, there is a hunch in his heart that King Your Majesty is probably already Set to deal with them.

“By the way, you should go to Mein soon after the banquet is over. Before that, I will give you a present first.” Elmir continued.

“Gift?” Richard was taken aback and didn’t understand what it meant by Almere suddenly giving himself a gift.

“To be precise, it is a convenient channel for us to communicate.” Elmir said, “I will send you an eagle trainer, and you can use him and the eagle Send it to me. In the same way, I will send the letter to you if you encounter something that needs you.”

This is… Xinying?

Ah no, there is no such thing as an eagle. Richard has only heard of homing pigeons, but can eagles deliver letters? This is the first time he has heard of it.

He swallowed, nodded, and said: “I see, thank you, Lord Duke.”

This eagle trainer is probably not just to set up communication between them. Richard guessed that he might also have a task to help Elmir monitor Richard and report regularly.

“Okay, you can go back first. I think that soon after I go back, the king’s messenger will find you.”

After Elmir finished speaking, he leaned on On the back of the chair, closing his eyes, and no longer talking, Richard turned and left when he saw this, leaving the manor with the housekeeper.

……

Walking to the entrance of the manor, Richard thought for a while, and tentatively asked the butler about the residence of the Duke of Olsson in Touraine. The butler did not hesitate. Reporting an accurate location directly to him, Richard thanked him, then left the manor and walked towards that address.

He wants to meet the Duke of Olsson in person, and find out about himself from the other person, as well as the agreement he and the king Your Majesty may reach… The latter may not be able to find out. , He doesn’t really care about that’s all.

After riding a horse to find Duke Olsson’s estate in Touraine, Richard took a look at the estate of the same size as Duke Ayrmere’s. He got off his horse and walked straight to the gate guard In front of the guard, he showed him his noble certificate, and then said: “I am Richard Vareen, you go and talk to the Duke, I want to see him.”

The guard glanced at the nobleman hastily. Proof, saluted him, and then turned to enter the manor. Richard collected the noble certificate, looked at the other guard who was left behind, and did not speak.
