Rise of the Lord of Mount and Blade

Richard didn’t know what happened in the manor after he left, because at the same time, he had already returned to the royal hotel and told what happened last night without omission and in detail Basilio.

For Richard being recruited by the Duke of Olsson as his son-in-law, Basilio was very surprised, but after being surprised, he felt that way as it should have been. He recalled that he was with Richard at Gabbey Manor. Said the speculation, I couldn’t help but give a thumbs up for my speculation at that time.

So, he teased Richard with a smile: “Richard, you see I told you a long time ago, Duke Lelis really wants to recruit you as a son-in-law, although it is not the kind of adultery, but You also have a bigger backing.”

After hearing what Richard said, although Richard wanted to refute, he still couldn’t say what he said. Basilio’s words are indeed correct. Now, in summary, it seems that Duke Olsson had planned to recruit him as his son-in-law from the very beginning.

It’s just that Richard is sure in his heart that if he hadn’t been conferred as the earl because of this war, this wedding would not be an ordinary marriage, but a humiliating marriage for the man.

Seeing that Richard did not refute, Basilio changed the subject and asked: “When and where is your wedding going to be held?”

“If nothing happens It will be held in Mein City in four months.” There was a smile on Richard’s face. It was obvious that he was looking forward to a future marriage. It’s no wonder that he finally tasted the meat last night. Taste, I can’t wait to do it again right away. After getting married, I can come every day.

Looking at the smile on Richard’s face, Basilio didn’t know why, but felt sour in his heart, but he forgot that when he signed the engagement with Agatha, he seemed to be no different from Richard now. How many.

“Remember to notify us in advance when you arrive.” He put away the sadness in his heart and said: “I will take my mother with me. I think she will be very happy to watch you get married. “

Richard nodded responded, and Basilio then asked: “Then when will you leave Touraine, I am going to return to Holt tomorrow, I am afraid that the next meeting will be your wedding.”

“I’m going to stay here for a few days, there are some things to deal with.” Richard replied.

Bassirio also didn’t ask Richard what he wanted to deal with. Although they are pro brother, there is no need to make everything transparent.

However, Basilio may not be able to leave tomorrow, because in the afternoon, the royal messenger came to the hotel and handed out the invitation letter to Richard and Basilio so that they could get married in two days. Go to the palace in the evening to attend a banquet.

It is worth mentioning that the signature for Richard on the exquisitely patterned invitation letter has changed from Viscount Blatte to Earl of Meen.

After receiving the invitation, Basilio had no choice but to postpone the schedule of returning home and continued to stay in Touraine for two days. During these two days, Lema’s caravan left Touraine. It’s getting closer and closer. Richard estimated that the caravan will arrive in two days, but he doesn’t plan to stay in the city and wait. He plans to take the initiative to find the caravan on the 2nd day after the banquet. .

……

In the evening of 2nd day, as the sky darkened, Richard and Basilio each dressed in exquisite noble costumes and walked to Popavo, which is only half a square away. The palace, when they walked out of the hotel, they saw that many carriages had been parked outside the gate of the palace with carriages depicting various noble emblems. The gate was brightly lit, and a large number of fully armed soldiers were standing around to guard.

Oh, by the way, this palace like Neiburg is called Popavo Palace, which also means the residence of the noble in Touraine.

Richards walked to the gate of the city without their entourage, and after showing the invitation letter to the guards of the gate, they were put into the palace together with other nobles, and they walked into a small section. of the road, Richard saw a pair of familiar silhouettes. Before he took the initiative to greet him, one of the slim silhouettes turned to look at him as if he had a heart, and touched Richard’s gaze in midair.

The girl quickly retracted her gaze, and talked to the tall man next to her in a soft voice. The latter also followed her. When she saw it was Richard, the old face without one eye appeared immediately. With a smile, the two stopped and waited for Richard to walk up.

“Lord Duke.” Richard stroked his chest and said respectfully. Basilio, who was standing next to him, immediately understood the identity of the old man, and said hello together.

“Your Excellency Lelis, I am Basilio Vareen, Earl of Holt, and Richard’s elder brother.”

The Duke of Olsson was nodded with a smile, he looked towards Basilio, and said: “You should be the patriarch of the Vareen family at the moment. If we have the opportunity, we can discuss cooperation.”

Basilio was slightly taken aback, but quickly reacted , The corners of his mouth raised, knowing that this was the kindness that the old duke radiated to them, and he agreed.

Next, Olsson and Basilio tacitly drove Teresa and Richard behind and walked together. The two of them walked in front and talked, watching the front slightly behind half a step and As Olsson was talking to Basilio, Richard’s mouth twitched slightly, and he glanced at Teresa next to her, she was also looking at herself.

The two made eye contact, Richard slightly smiled, reaching out to hold Teresa’s hand, the two were like a couple, and they were tightly glued together—Richard didn’t know why their feelings were The rapid development may be a “day” in love, and it is impossible to say that it is familiarity breeds fondness.

In this way, the four people entered the brightly lit and extremely lively great hall. As soon as they entered the room, Richard felt a heat wave of various flavors assaults the senses from in front of him. The chill was completely dissipated. When they were outside, they heard a sound of musical instruments and singing, but after stepping into the gate, the sound became louder, as if it had struck from all directions and got into Richard’s ears.

He glanced at the interior of the great hall and found that the sound of the instruments were all made by the various wooden instruments in the hands of the musicians sitting in the corner. In addition to the musicians, there were also several bards. Impromptu performances for the nobles present, and in the crowd, many maidservants shuttled through the crowd with clay pots filled with sweet wine and provided drinks to the nobles in need-oh, in this era of low alcohol content , Wine can only be drunk as a drink.

The arrival of the four Richards attracted some people’s attention. Some members of the set up Sect or the aristocratic faction who had been friends with Basilio came over, and they looked at Orr in amazement. Song stood with Basilio and didn’t understand why a member of the set up Sect group would stand with aristocratic faction, but he was only surprised for a few seconds, and soon the matter was turned over without incident. .

Looking at the two men blending into the circle of other nobles, Richard thought for a while, and took Teresa to find a place to sit down and waited for the banquet to begin.
