Lord of the North

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!" In the castle of Diailing the next night, Earl Diai was roaring crazily, and he had been in this state for a whole day.

The castle was full of fragments of objects smashed by him, and the candles on the walls gave off a faint light. In the hall, there were town officials and army chiefs kneeling. They didn't dare to take a breath, because there were already several The long-eyed one was dragged out, and as for the consequences of being dragged out, they didn't want to know about it, so it wasn't much better.

There were five knights standing in the front, their heads bowed and they said nothing, because in front of them was the corpse of the knight Diu.

"This is a declaration of war, this is a provocation against me, the murderer must die!" Earl Diai seemed a little incoherent, 1,500 soldiers were wiped out without a sound, and his capable subordinate, the extraordinary and strong Diu, was wiped out. neck, which plunged him into boundless rage.

As he was talking, he grabbed an item and made a gesture of throwing it down, and then he suddenly saw that it was a very exquisite statue from the corner of his eye.

I bought it impulsively when I was fighting for face with a few nobles in Lucca City.

He froze for a moment, then kicked a small official in front of him with an angry face: "What use do I want you bastards? Ah? Someone, drag him down for me!"

Then he put the statue in his hand back to its original place without any trace. There are thousands of gold coins. The sum of these smashed objects can't compare with it. Why did you lose your head in the first place?

"My lord, my lord, please forgive me. I still have family members. This matter has nothing to do with me. I'm just a tax collector!" It's really a disaster.

"Drag on." Earl Diai kicked him away in disgust, and then said to the soldiers who had already entered.

"..."

Hearing the screams and wailing of the tax official, all the officials didn't dare to raise their heads. They could only silently pray that this kind of bad luck wouldn't happen to them.

As for pleading for him? Stop joking, this joke is not humorous at all, do we know him well?

"Immediately send out our secret agents to find out who is attacking the territory of Viscount Tours. If you don't know who is attacking the territory of Viscount Tours, you will have to bury him with 1,500 soldiers!"

Earl Diai looked at them obediently, as if he didn't dare to take a breath, he suddenly became out of breath, and kicked the person closest to him to the ground again and roared loudly.

"Get out of here!!"

The officials who knelt on the ground suddenly felt amnesty, and even scrambled and stood up to escape and left the hall. Only Earl Diai and his five knights were left in the hall.

"What a bunch of trash!" Earl Diai said angrily as he sat back on his chair out of breath.

"My lord, the most urgent thing is to strengthen the defense of Diai Town, so as to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the situation to attack." The man standing in front of the five knights lowered his head and said calmly.

The knight has gray hair, a resolute face, and is wearing excellent knight chain armor. His name is Willis, and he is almost seventy years old this year. He once swore allegiance to the father of Earl Diai, and is now the Earl of Diai. left and right hands.

And he is loyal to the Diai family. It can even be said that the prosperity of the entire Diai collar is mostly due to his efforts. Even a big noble from the south came to contact him and hoped that he could work for him, but he sternly refused.

"Yes, Uncle Willis, you are right." Earl Diai suddenly realized, cursed himself for being confused, and immediately said to another knight, "Lead, I will arrange it for you."

"Yes, my lord." After receiving the order, the knight immediately turned and left without dragging his feet.

The knight named Lid is a middle-aged man who is about the same age as Earl Diai,

He looks honest, but anyone who knows him knows that he is a complete lunatic.

"Uncle Willis, you all sit down." Earl Diai stretched out his hand and said.

The knights were not polite after thanking them, and each found a chair and sat under Earl Diai.

"Uncle Willis, who do you think is against us this time?"

"Nine times out of ten it is His Royal Highness the Second Prince." Willis sighed, secretly regretting that he hadn't been able to persuade Earl Diall not to step on this muddy water.

"Impossible?" Earl Diai couldn't believe it. The prince who was expelled from the royal city would have such energy?

"Now the situation in the kingdom is in chaos. The reason for King Lopez's ignorance is unknown. The garrison troops in various cities cannot be mobilized. The eldest prince cannot deter the nobles in the country. The Marquis of Garcia is secretly in power. There are signs of disobedience to Wang Cheng's order, if someone secretly supports the second prince now, it is not surprising that such a thing happened."

Knight Willis calmly analyzed and said with a little regret that if he could have guessed that the situation in the kingdom would be so turbulent, he would never agree with Earl Diall to fall into this vortex.

But it's too late to say these things, they have already made trouble with Jason.

"Even if someone helps him, so what?" Earl Diai sneered when he heard the words. The person who bid to kill him himself is quite powerful, and it is not easy to crush him to death with his backhand?

It's just because the situation in the kingdom is chaotic recently, that person hasn't freed up his hand yet, and because of the failure of his first plan, he was afraid that some people would find out that he was behind the scenes and temporarily dormant.

"My lord, don't be careless. The disappearance of Diwu and those 1,500 soldiers is a wake-up call." Knight Willis looked up at Earl Diai and said seriously.

"Well, I see." Earl Diai thought for a while and nodded slowly. Although he is irritable, he is not a fool. When an official dies, there are countless people staring at his seat, but if something happens to the territory It's all over.

………………

Two months later, when it was about to enter the end of the year, the casino in Erbia, where Jason and Violet invested tens of thousands of gold coins, was finally completed, and now all the facilities and entertainment activities inside are ready. All that was left was for Jason and Violet to invite the nobles and businessmen to the opening banquet.

"My lord, the casino has been completed, let me take you there." On this day Jason brought Lang Nat and a team of cavalry to Erbia, and Gareth brought people to meet him at the city gate early.

"Well, take me there right away." Jason couldn't wait. Whether he can make money like crazy in the future depends on the success of this project, and he is extremely looking forward to it.

As for Earl Diai, Jason seemed not very anxious, because Viscount Leon and Viscount Zack were watching, and they had already made up their next action plan at the banquet some time ago.

"By the way, send someone with my letter to notify Violet and ask her to come to Irbia in a few days." He suddenly ordered Lang Nat, who hadn't seen her for several months, Jia Sen really misses it.

And he planned to live in Erbia before the opening banquet of the casino, and it happened to be here to issue invitations to the nobles and businessmen in the north.

"Yes, my lord." Lang Nat bowed.
