Chapter 152: Baronial Fief

"Lord Rudolph, why do I think Lord Cockel Devin seems to be a little hostile to me?" Ji Yunfan hesitated for a moment on the way to meet His Majesty with Rudolph, but couldn't help but ask.

"Looks like you've felt it, too. Rudolph took a deep breath and looked into the distance with a deep gaze, "The water in the imperial capital is very deep, and many people have changed, even Cockel Devin is not exempt from vulgarity, his daughter-in-law is the daughter of the Stephen family. ”

"I didn't expect him to have anything to do with the Stephens. ”

"There are some things that Your Majesty is not suitable to tell you, but I think you should understand what Your Majesty means. Rudolph suddenly stopped, looked at Ji Yunfan and said.

"Your Majesty probably wants me to balance those nobles, but I'm afraid I'm weak alone. Ji Yunfan hesitated for a moment, but still said what was in his heart directly.

"There is no way to do this, the water in the imperial capital is already muddy, and the various families check and balance each other, only by finding someone who has nothing to do with these families, I am afraid that we will be able to accomplish what Your Majesty wants to do. Rudolph shook his head slightly, "Even His Majesty can't help himself. ”

"It seems that there is a saying in my hometown that is very well used, that where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there are fights. ”

"It's a very apt sentence, Dante, you are a wise man, but I need to remind you that you already have the mark of your majesty. Rudolph said with a slight squint.

"Sure enough, there is no such thing as a free lunch. Ji Yunfan sighed lightly.

"It's good that you know something. ”

Rudolph took Ji Yunfan again and walked in the direction of the palace.

But at this moment, Ji Yunfan's mood was unusually heavy, to be honest, he didn't know how long he could jump in this whirlpool.

"Forget it, no matter how much it is, the soldiers will come to block it, the water will flood, even if these bastards want to mess with themselves, they have to separate their teeth. Ji Yunfan was secretly ruthless in his heart.

"Besides, the situation doesn't have to be so bad, and when you have the strength to dominate the Empire, the threat of those guys is a joke. ”

......

Ji Yunfan was brought into the palace, but the reward for Ji Yunfan was undecided for a long time.

A series of nobles led by the Stephen family and the Bennett family naturally did not want to reward Ji Yunfan. And some royalists naturally knew His Majesty's intentions, so the dispute between the two factions was deadlocked.

"Your Majesty, the fiefdoms of the empire are saturated, and there is simply no extra land allocated to Baron Dante!"

Ken Achill, the emperor of the Nigal Empire, was getting worse and worse, and said secretly in his heart: "These guys really don't take me to heart more and more, the entire empire is so large, they actually say that there is no land to be rewarded!

"None of these nobles are really good. Ji Yunfan said secretly.

Rudolph's eyes were a little colder, and he said: "These guys have become more and more arrogant over the years, but do they really think that Your Majesty is a soft persimmon...... I didn't expect these guys to do it blatantly. ”

Chancellor of the Exchequer Stephen frowned slightly, looked at Ken Archer, and said, "Your Majesty, there is still a lack of a baron to manage in the small town of Grom on the West Bank. ”

"The small town of Grom on the West Bank. Ken Archer's brow furrowed, "That West Bank town of Grom, known as the grave of the nobility?"

"It's called the West Bank...... Is the place in Grom Town really scary?" Ji Yunfan asked in a low voice to Rudolph.

"Yes, it's very terrifying, three barons have died there in the past two years!" said Rudolph with a gloomy face, "although there is no definite evidence, I am afraid that this matter has nothing to do with the Stephens' family." ”

Ji Yunfan was really shocked when he heard it, it seems that this old thing of the Stephen family still wants to put himself to death. Forcibly suppressing the anger in his heart, Ji Yunfan's eyes flashed with a cold light and snorted coldly.

"Dante, I don't know if you're willing to accept the fiefdom of the West Bank Grom Town!" Kenn Archill's face changed a few times, and finally set his eyes on Ji Yunfandao.

Ji Yunfan took a deep breath, seemed to have made up his mind, and arched his hand to Ken Archer: "I do!" But at this moment, Ji Yunfan was ruthless in his heart: Don't you bastards just want to kill me, I will simply follow your wishes today, but it is not certain who will kill the deer in the end!

"Okay, Baron Dante, I really didn't misread you!" Ken Archer nodded with satisfaction, "Mr. Rudolph, Dante's reward is up to you personally!"

......

"Oh, by the way......" The Chancellor of the Exchequer Stephen seemed to remember something, turned his head and sneered: "Congratulations to Baron Dante, you have been promoted by Your Majesty, and I hope you can build the small town of Grom on the West Bank into a good city." With that, Chancellor of the Exchequer Stephen laughed and left.

"Oh, yes, Baron Dante, I hope you can make the town of Grom on the West Bank a good city. Several nobles also came forward to congratulate them with some hypocrisy.

Ji Yunfan smiled, looked at these guys, and after saying goodbye, did he dare to make a blatant attack on me very consciously?

"In the imperial capital, do these people still dare to make a blatant attack on me? It may be a bit troublesome, but this is not a challenge. Ji Yunfan pouted.

Rudolph looked at Ji Yunfan's still somewhat immature face, he could feel the changes after seeing Ji Yunfan again, although this little guy looked tepid, but Rudolph had experienced too much deception after all, so he could perceive that there seemed to be a great amount of energy hidden under that immature face.

That kind of energy, like a hidden dragon in the field, is not a sound, a blockbuster, will be extremely powerful and powerful.

This change made Rudolph a little surprised and a little relieved at the same time, he was extremely concerned about this young man, and he had a feeling that the young man in front of him could change the situation of the empire.

"Let's go, I'll take you to get the letter of appointment. Rudolph waved his hand at Ji Yunfan, and then led Ji Yunfan towards Ken Archer's study.

Follow Rudolph through the palace, stopping in front of the heavily guarded palace.

"Lord Rudolph. The guard greeted Rudolph respectfully.

"You guys take care of it here, I'll take Baron Dante to see Your Majesty!" Rudolph said as he walked in with Ji Yunfan.

Ji Yunfan looked at the situation in the study curiously.
