Warhammer Throne

Chapter 272: , From the empire

Dear~ The domain name of this site: the shorthand homophony of \"166 Novel\", easy to remember! The good-looking novel strongly recommends: Winter's footsteps have come to the earl of Glamorgan, and also to the castle of the earl.

The first heavy snow in the middle of winter came earlier than in previous years. Compared to Nord, Brittany is located in the south. The heavy snow at the end of November is indeed too early. When people get up in the morning, the sky is full of white snow. I don't know when it covered the sky of the town, and there were dark clouds in the sky.

Winter did come. The townspeople in Jin Town hurriedly set up fires to warm up, slurried their clothes, and did manual work by the way. Due to the heavy snow and wind, many buildings in the collar were suspended, and the serfs took the money they earned in a blink of an eye. Went to the tavern, drank cheap barley wine, ate black bread and fried beans, chatting loudly about all kinds of interesting things.

There are dozens of taverns in the town, and new taverns are constantly appearing, and even special taverns of dwarves and wood elves have appeared...Of course it is very expensive, at least the serfs can’t afford to drink, a glass of ordinary Barley wine only needs a few copper coins, but a cup of wood spirit fruit wine can't be bought without a few silver coins.

The guys in every bar stood at the door enthusiastically soliciting customers. They took a bite: "Gentlemen, folks, it’s cold, come in and have a drink. We have the best bard and the best barley. ."

The savvy bar owner knows that this year's "folks" have a lot of shiny coins in their pockets.

In the earl’s castle, Ryan and Suria are leaning together, drinking hot coffee and tasting delicious jam cakes. The heavy snow outside the window did not affect Ryan’s good spirits. On the contrary, it brought differences between the two. Kind of sentiment.

Ryan's hands were not very honestly around Sulia's waist. This was the first time the female knight had sat with Ryan and had a good talk since she was engaged to him. Before, she was called to the lake every time she came to see Ryan. The Fairy in the High Tower went to receive "training." Ryan didn't know what the Fairy in the Lake had trained for Su Liya, but it was true that the two of them couldn't meet.

Until Ryan complained to the fairy in the lake: "Madam, are you engaged to Su Liya or I am engaged to Su Liya?"

The fairy in the lake smiled so much that tears came out, and then the female knight was released to reunite with him.

"The snow is so big, Ryan, elder brothers... will nothing happen?" Su Liya leaned on Ryan's shoulders, covered with a thin blanket, a little worried on her dignified and noble face, the female knight was wearing a dress today. A dreamy peach pink orange bouquet windbreaker. The inside is a fine white woolen sweater. It is beautiful but not warm enough, especially under the knee-length skirt, a pair of skin color pantyhose is used to keep out the cold. Ryan wrapped the woman in a blanket. The knight's beautiful legs, only a pair of little feet wearing bear slippers, then comforted, "Don't worry, nothing will happen."

"Well, I believe you." Su Liya has a mysterious trust in Ryan. This may be the reason for the engagement, or Ryan has created too many miracles.

The atmosphere in the room was very quiet. Olica was sitting next to the fireplace, slowly adding wood. Delicious pies were being baked in the fireplace. This would be their lunch today.

"Su Liya, will you live here these few days? The envoys from the empire will arrive here soon. Come and see him with me." Ryan touched Su Liya's tender little hand and said softly .

"Envoy of the empire?" The female knight blushed. At first she thought Ryan had no good intentions.

"Well, the envoy of the empire, and also my old friend and righteous brother, Anton Ferdinand, Earl of Griffon." Ryan leaned his body relaxed on the sofa chair: "This meeting will have a lot of meaning. , I need you to meet my righteous brother with me."

"Of course I will meet your righteous brother with you." Su Liya nodded repeatedly, and the female knight asked curiously: "Anton? I have heard about the name of Ivan, Duke of Griffin, but I have not yet your righteous brother. heard about it."

Ryan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The godfather did not marry him until he was nearly fifty...Speaking of which, Yuri hasn't planned to get married yet? Are we not so good in front of him?"

The female knight smiled bitterly after hearing this topic. She leaned against Ryan’s chest: "Brother, he, father is too lazy to talk about it. My brother only has combat and chivalry in his mind. My father has asked someone to introduce him to Kacassone. The granddaughter of Duke Hubald, the second daughter of the eldest son of Bastogne, Duke of Bastogne, and the daughters of several earls, the elder brothers are not satisfied... Now my father is too lazy to talk about it, compared to most Duke's daughter, I am... very happy now."

"It's my honor to be engaged with you." Ryan's face was a little grateful. The female knight has a very good personality, outstanding strength, and noble status. It is my luck to marry her.

This is all thanks to Francois for teaching well, being rightly spoiled, and having a gentle and virtuous wife in the family who can help him a lot is very important to Ryan.

Casvan, Duke of Pallaon, had a well-known wicked wife. This duchess was born noble and was the great-granddaughter of the previous knight King John I. Since marrying Casvan, this duchess has gained notoriety. It spread all over the old world. She is not beautiful and has a very bad temper. She always tries to catch any fault of her husband and then frantically criticizes it. It is really irritating to bite Casvann like a mad dog. Bored.

Ryan believes that some small conflicts between husband and wife are inevitable. Mutual tolerance and understanding are very necessary in life, but the Duchess of Casvann is not the case. The duchess likes to tell others in front of others, and then she does everything possible to shake things up. The embarrassment of her husband was so good to win everyone's sympathy. Her picky way of doing things in the egg made all the knights dislike, and she herself didn't notice it.

François once said with dissatisfaction that the duchess especially liked to suddenly break in when the dukes and kings were meeting in the capital to discuss matters, and then took the opportunity to constantly pour out her dissatisfaction in front of all the dukes, and let Cass Vann's face was dull again and again, and under her influence, Casvan's temper became irritable and gloomy.

This shows how important it is to the newly-emerged nobleman like Ryan that having a wife like Su Liya is very difficult and involves a lot of divorce between the nobles, especially for the champion of Ryan's choice. Given the marriage contract, it is almost impossible for him to divorce.

Looking at the heavy snow outside the window, Ryan was silent for a long time, and then softly said to Su Liya: "Su Liya, this time the imperial envoy is not that simple. First of all, I used the godfather's relationship to buy value data from the empire. Because of the preciousness of the magical ores of the Qianjin Mark, Anton is likely to bring the Griffin Riders personally. Also, the friction between the Duke of Palaon and the Empire has become more frequent and intense recently... …I suspect that the empire is here to test."

"Testing? Test your and... father's position?" Su Liya immediately realized what, the female knight raised her head, with some seriousness in her exquisite beauty. As the daughter of the duke, her political sensitivity even Better than Ryan: "The Empire... is already preparing to go to war with Duke Palaon?"

"Maybe... everything will not be known until we have met Anton."

"Ryan...Can I ask your position? How did you plan?" Su Liya hesitated for a while, and she asked quietly: "Father and the Empire have always had a good relationship..."

"It is unwise to consume precious human power in internal fighting. At this point, I support your Excellency the Duke." Lane decided to give the female knight some advice to give her peace of mind.

"Thank you, Ryan, you are so kind." Su Liya subconsciously felt that Ryan didn't want to be caught in the middle. The female knight was warm in her heart. After thinking for a while, she finally made up her mind to raise her head and give to Ryan. Kissed myself.

The two people entangled on the soft sofa chair for a while before getting up, Su Liya blushed and smoothed out the wrinkles on the dress, shyly couldn't raise her head, Ryan let her go with a chuckle, and the count himself was a little proud. A box was brought in from outside: "Su Liya, see what I got?"

Open the box, there is good-quality beef inside, and the surface of the beef has a beautiful marble pattern.

"This is... Snowflake Beef?!" Su Liya said in surprise: "Ryan, how did you get so much Snowflake Beef?"

Snow beef is a kind of beef. It is famous in the old world for its fragrant, fresh and tender meat. The output of this kind of beef is very small.

"This is sent by the Elector of Boris. I think we can eat together." Ryan laughed. Beef can be regarded as one of the most precious foods in this world: "Bring some when you go back. Give the Duke and Duchess a taste together!"

"Ryan...Thank you." The female knight was very happy. She let Ryan take her little hand, and the two came to the kitchen together.

"Today I will teach you how to make a pan-fried snowflake steak~"

"Frying?" Su Liya came to be interested. The cooking method that the female knight knew was nothing more than stewing, roasting, and cooking. This was a cooking method she had never heard of.

"Yes, come, I'll show it to you~" Ryan held Sulia's beautiful body from behind, and whispered in her ear: "After learning, you can go back and make it for the Duke and Duchess, or you can Dedicated to the lady."

"Ryan, don't say that, it's too utilitarian~" Su Liya turned her head shyly, only Ryan's laughter was heard.

The castle of the Earl of Glamorgan under the heavy snow is warm and fun.

…………

Anton’s arrival was three days later. The Griffin Earl led dozens of half-griffon knights and more than a hundred swordsmen to land from the Principality of Polderro, and then escorted a large number of goods to Lane. Territory.

Ryan opened the gate of the castle and led the remaining knights and his retainers to welcome the arrival of Griffin Earl Anton Ferdinand. He wore a Britanian standard earl's gown, and Sulia next to him was a standard dress. Her marquise's costumes look like a pair of bi people in the heavy snow and cold wind.

"Welcome, Anton, on behalf of the Kingdom of Brittany, I would like to extend my sincere greetings to you, and I wish you good health." Ryan saw the figure headed in bright gold full-body plate armor and took the initiative to step forward.

"Hello, Ryan, my brother, I have brought greetings from His Majesty the Emperor and the Duke of Griffin. May your pond be as clear and beautiful as the melting snow on a mountain." One looks about thirty years old, with a heroic face. The imperial general with gleaming eyes, short black hair and sideburns, riding on a huge gryphon, led dozens of half-griffon knights and more than a hundred imperial swordsmen to the front. Lord Griffin, Ryan's righteous brother Anton Ferdinand.

Anton Ferdinand brought a huge amount of magic ore this time, as well as several barrels of fierce kerosene. These were goods that Ryan desperately needed. After he wrote to his godfather, Duke Ivan, Ivan paid for it. Specially consulted with Emperor Karl-Franz.

These things have always been listed as strictly controlled rare materials in the empire. To sell them, they must be approved by the emperor or the elector himself. Fortunately, Ryan’s prestige and his special relationship with the empire finally made Karl-Franz After passing this order, Ryan will export six half-blood elf warhorses and a large amount of wood elf medicine to the empire in exchange.

Brittany is short of ore, especially magic ore.

Perhaps some people feel incredible about this situation. Bretania was established hundreds of years later than the Empire. In theory, the mining of ore should be far inferior to the mining of the empire. How can there be a shortage of magic ore?

The account cannot be calculated like that, because the elves had colonized the place for thousands of years before the Bretons appeared on the side of the Grey Mountains.

"I haven't seen you for a long time, Ryan, you are already an earl. It's really unpredictable. At the beginning, you vowed to me that you would get a chance here. I thought you were an opportunist, but I didn't expect...you won the bet? "Anton looked at Ryan in earl's costume with interest: "Father has bought you what you want."

"Thank you very much!" Ryan thanked him sincerely. The dwarf's blacksmith workshop needed fierce fire oil, and Veronica's wizard tower needed magic ore. Ivan was willing to help and let Ryan breathe a sigh of relief.

"What's the matter? We also need your medicine and the half-blood elf warhorse." Anton shook his head: "It is because we need each other, so father agreed to help."

"No, don't I remember that there is a commercial road that leads directly to Marienburg? The imperial merchant Mr. Oliver is in charge of the operation of this commercial road. You can buy medicines for the wood elves in Marienburg." Ryan watched As Anton jumped off the Griffin, he said suspiciously.

"Too few. The wood spirit goods that came out of your side were robbed almost instantly. Many nobles and merchants are desperately buying and hoarding a few rare wood spirit medicines. We can buy them on the black market in Marienburg. Some, but those black-hearted businessmen took the opportunity to raise the price several times." Anton shook his head: "We need more...this one?"

The Earl Griffin noticed the female knight standing next to Ryan.

"This is my fiancée, Sulia Kumani Antry de Winford." Ryan took Sulia's hand and introduced to Anton: "This is my righteous brother. Anton Ferdinand, Count Griffin."

"Hello, beautiful Miss Sulia, my future younger siblings." Anton's eyes lit up and he knew that Sulia was François's daughter-in-law.

He is more sure of completing the task.

"Hello, Lord Anton." Su Liya expressed her respect towards Anton with perfect etiquette.

"Let's go in, Ryan... This time I'm here, I want to discuss something with you." Anton quickly turned his attention away from Su Liya, and he whispered to Ryan.
