Renard then realized that sometimes personal gains and losses are not so important in order to protect the interests of the country.

Sylvia took a sip of her wine and continued, "I found out about you, and I think you're a better fit for the position than Earl Ian. ”

Renard nodded undeniably: "That means that if I don't come to the royal capital, it is inevitable to confer the title?"

Sylvia thought for a moment, then shook her head slightly, "No, if you don't come, Count Ian will still be our first target." ”

Lei Ye was a little puzzled now: "Why?"

Sylvia stared into his eyes for a long time before she said, "Because if you don't come, it means that you don't want to be a pawn or a chess player, you just want to be an outsider, and we don't need to bother to win over such a person." ”

Renard immediately understood, it turned out that the other party was afraid that he would not be able to hold on halfway and run.

He couldn't help but shake his head and smile, and asked, "Then how can you be sure that I won't run away after accepting these two titles?"

Sylvia didn't speak, but showed a charming smile, her fingers inadvertently brushed Lei Ye's thighs, and then whispered in his ear: "Because you are a very responsible man." ”

Renard suddenly felt that his throat was dry, as if he was scratched by a cat scratch in his heart, and he couldn't help but shout in his heart: The original sin of mankind is really not easy to deal with!

Immediately afterward, Sylvia put down her glass, smiled charmingly, and asked, "Would you like to dance with me?"

Renard pulled his crotch and politely refused: "It's a little inconvenient." ”

Sylvia looked down, the smile on her face became more and more obvious, and then Lei Ye had the opportunity to refuse, dragged him to the dance floor, and said domineeringly: "No one has ever been able to refuse my invitation, and you are no exception." ”

Reynard smiled wryly and had to follow behind.

There were a lot of men and women on the dance floor, and when they saw Her Royal Highness the princess pulling the upstart Lei Ye to arrive, they were all very interested in giving up the middle position.

The old aristocrats chatting next to them had an irrepressible association, could it be that this little white face climbed up to Her Royal Highness the Princess, and only then did she win such an honor?

The more they thought about it, the more they felt that it made sense, and in addition to jealousy, they couldn't help but feel a little contempt.

As the cheerful music played, Sylvia danced expertly, while Renard rarely attended banquets and didn't know much at all, so he could only sway blindly in her footsteps.

Everyone saw it in their eyes, and sneered at him again, and secretly said in their hearts: It turned out that it was just good kung fu in bed.

Fortunately, Lei Ye was already a martial artist, with excellent body coordination, and did not make an embarrassing incident of stepping on people's feet, which made the aristocrats around him a little disappointed.

Feeling the satin-like touch coming from the palm of his hand, Lei Ye couldn't help but feel his heart ripple, and his right hand unconsciously slid down.

Faced with this sudden change, Sylvia's body trembled slightly, but she did not refuse.

Seeing this, Renard's courage became more and more emboldened, his lips were pressed to her ear, and he said in a provocative tone: "Your Royal Highness, your dancing is really good, can you teach me when you have time?"

The hot air blew in Sylvia's ears, making her body tremble even more violently, and at some point, her entire neck turned red, and she nodded a little unnaturally: "Okay!"

Renard heard the words and put his arms around her harder and harder, as if to melt them into his body, and his voice was extremely magnetic: "And how about tonight?"

Sylvia's body shuddered suddenly, and then she approached his arms as if she were weak......

After the banquet was over, Renard was very "politely" invited out of the palace by the guards, looking at the magnificent castle behind him, the corners of his eyes twitched slightly.

I worked hard to come to the royal capital, and it seems that I only drank a few sips of wine, and I didn't get any other substantial benefits, and I even had a mess on my body.

The position of the governor of Nanhuang County seems to be very bullish, but in fact, Nanhuang County is the place where the lord has the most complete self-control, and no one will pay attention to any bullshit governor at all.

In the past, he could still mobilize the Southern Army for his own use, but sadly, in a few days, the Southern Army would all be withdrawn from the Southern Wilderness County.

That is, he didn't get any except for a useless title of governor.

The Guardian of the Realm sounds even more powerful, second only to the King, but it's just a title.

Status: Status is earned by fists and wealth! Not given by others!

Back at the inn, Renard only smiled bitterly at everyone's inquiries, and then went upstairs to sleep.

Everyone thought that the matter was not done, and there was also a helpless expression on their faces, so in order not to affect Lei Ye's emotions, they did not continue to ask.

However, within two days, a letter of authorization sent shockwaves across the royal capital and quickly spread to other cities in the kingdom.

The content of the power of attorney is very simple, and it is hereby granted Baron Renard Duncan the Governor of the Southern Wilderness, and the title of Guardian of the Realm, which is made to His Majesty King Ferdinand.

Suddenly, the elite shook.

No one would believe that His Majesty, who was extremely stingy, had handed over fifteen percent of the territory of Arthur's kingdom to a young baron who was only twenty-one years old.

And such a rich reward is simply unheard of, even if Duke Sam is slightly inferior to it.

Even if that land is sparsely populated, it is land after all!

As a result, many nobles with little status and power rushed to visit, wanting to get acquainted with this new upstart of the kingdom.

Lei Ye received cramps in his hands after collecting money, and his mouth was about to reach the root of his ears.

He thought angrily: Your Hope family doesn't give me benefits, so it's okay for Lao Tzu to collect some benefits himself, right?

This situation lasted for three days, and was finally suppressed by another edict from the king.

The content of this edict is even simpler, that is, in view of the increasing demonic plague, His Majesty the King has decided to transfer the southern army into Kale County, and the defense of Southern Wilderness County will be left to Governor Renard Duncan. ”

The nobles who planned to give gifts suddenly died down, and the nobles who had already given gifts beat their chests.

From this edict, they read the king's idea of abandoning the southern wilderness and defending the two provinces and several counties in the northern part of the kingdom.

As for this bullshit Governor Renard, he is completely cannon fodder, carrying the black cauldron of losing the land for His Majesty the King.

Lei Ye had to stretch out two middle fingers to say: Rely on Sister Kai.

Before crossing the river, the bridge began to be demolished, how unkind was King Ferdinand to himself?

Fortunately, he has received enough gifts, which can ensure the prosperity of the territory for at least two months.

Therefore, after the edict was issued, he stayed for two days, and made sure that no one came to give gifts again, and Lei Ye embarked on the way home with great satisfaction.
