A Song of Ice and Fire: The Magic Empire of the Plane Where the Song Begins

Ai Qi's peaceful words were like thunder in Bud's ears, and Bud shuddered:

"Your Majesty, I do not understand what you mean."

Ai Qi looked at the shocked Bud:

"No, you know what I mean.

I have occupied this place, but in fact, the people around you only have fear in their eyes when they see me.

I don't want to spend too much time integrating here, there are a lot of things going on in this area next time, I don't want to wait, I need to stabilize this area quickly.

So, I need a suitable person to be the leader here.

In terms of the jurisprudence of blood, you have a part of the orthodox inheritance right to the valley area.

In terms of reputation, it is obvious that you have won the trust of most residents in the entire town.

In terms of ability, if you can replace everyone, you should not be bad at it.

How, I occupy this ancient river town, you swear allegiance to me, I will make it your fief, how about making you a baron?

It will not be difficult to make contributions to me in the future and restore the glory of your ancestors. "

Bud's brain began to work rapidly.

It is impossible to say that Bard has no thoughts in this regard.

Since the fall of the Lonely Mountain and his ancestors lost the right to rule this area, his family has not been doing well.

Now it is being bullied all the time.

For Bud, this time is obviously a rare opportunity.

Bud is an upright and brave man, has a good relationship with the residents of the town, and is also engaged in hunting and smuggling.

He has a deep understanding of interpersonal relationships, and it is obvious that Ai Qi only wants a puppet.

But even if it is a puppet, Bard can't give up this opportunity.

As the lord of this town, Bud will have the opportunity to make contributions, and also have the right to speak to protect the interests of the town, although the strength is still very small.

Whether in public or private, Bud must accept this opportunity.

Bud was heartbroken, and knelt down in front of Ai Qi on one knee:

"I, Bud, am willing to be loyal to His Majesty Aiqi, and will never betray you from generation to generation."

Ai Qi looked at the courageous man kneeling in front of him (he is an actor with Dracula, but each world is closer to the original, and has nothing to do with the appearance in the movie), and drew out the long sword, laying it flat on Bard's shoulder :

"I, Archie Downton, Emperor of the Qahnaarin Empire, accept your allegiance. I will also make you the Baron of the River Valley and entrust you with the town of Long Lake.

Arise, my Baron. "

Bud stood up gratefully.

Ai Qi left a lot of room. The entire river valley area was a state back then, and there was no problem with being a grand duke.

But there is no one who joins for nothing and gives the Grand Duke a fief. As a leader, he doesn't do that.

Ai Qi only limited the fiefdom to Changhu Town, gave the title to a baron, and gave Bud a lot of room to work hard.

Of course, no matter how great the contribution Bard made in the future, I am afraid that he will not be able to grasp the actual control of the territory.

In the future, this neighborhood will be a transfer point for trade with dwarves and elves, a prosperous place, and a big tax collector. It is impossible to completely hand it over to the rootless Bard.

Look at Wakanda's very high autonomy and several votes in the Imperial Parliament as soon as it joined.

Tony's company has crossed several planes, and has many cooperation projects with Winterhold.

Obviously this treatment is different, but it is a pity that this is also part of politics. Bud also chose to be loyal to Ai Qi knowing that this might be the case, and this is his only chance.

Ai Qi patted Bud on the shoulder, encouraged him and said:

"Good job, I need some spokespersons on the Middle-earth side, if you do well, there is a good chance.

Now, as my entrusted baron, you must quickly integrate Changhu Town.

Let Changhu Town settle down quickly,

And let them recognize our rule and your lordship.

This is also an opportunity to test your abilities. "

Bud nodded and took over the task.

Ai Qi continued to speak:

"Also, Changhu Town may face two military disasters in the future, and you need to ask the people of Changhu Town to prepare.

There is no need for them to directly participate in the battle, as long as they know how to hide in a safe place.

If you can organize some people to fight, it depends on your ability. "

Although Bud was puzzled by the "two military disasters" proposed by Ai Qi, he wisely did not ask more. Ai Qi didn't tell him, which meant that he didn't need to know yet, and Bud was ordered to go to work.

Ai Qi remembered one more thing:

"By the way, bring over the black arrow you hid on the beam.

I want to compare and build a batch. "

Bud was taken aback. Ai Qi not only knew that he still had a black arrow left by his ancestors, but also knew where it was hidden.

Bud hurriedly made up his mind again in his heart that he would do things well for Ai Qi, and then went to work as hard as he could according to Ai Qi's arrangement.

Ai Qi looked around and said to the guards around him:

"Wait a while Bard will bring the Black Arrow, and instruct Shire to quickly make a batch out of Valyrian steel.

Building a few more bed crossbows must be completed before Durin Day here. "

The guard takes command. Aitch took out two more chapters of sealed letterhead:

"Through the gate of the dimension, send out these two invitations and wait for a reply at all times.

Then call the dwarves, and Bilbo, Legolas, and Taoriel. "

The soldiers retreated under orders, leaving Ai Qi sitting on a chair in the town hall, waiting for the audience of these people.
