"A mistaken injury is an accidental injury, and the rewards and punishments must be clear. The representatives of the nobility finally found an opportunity to refute and seized on the point. The other nobles also showed a smile at this time.

"yes, you didn't seem to say that before. I remember the kid in the 3rd Squadron, he was able to get the title of Lord because of the war the year before. If I'm not mistaken, he sent a lot of soldiers to their deaths in that battle, and many more were killed by mistake. What did you say at the time? ”

"They say those are untouchables, and it is an honor to die for the sake of the nobility. An officer next to him said loudly.

At that time, they were all very angry, but there was nothing they could do. Because the laws of the empire and the code of nobility do stipulate so.

For the sake of the power and glory of the nobility, there were many regulations in this regard. But at that time, they would not accept this kind of thing with the elite of the army to send them to death.

"It was just an accident at the time. ”

The city lord sneered: "Is it an accident, whether it is an accident or not, the reward and punishment must be clear, right?" He was not a nobleman at that time, and what kind of punishment did you say according to the law of the time? ”

"No, although he is not a nobleman, he is a noble heir, not the same as a commoner. ”

"What about Lord Du You, he is already a nobleman and has the title of lord. ”

The two sides argued on the basis of reason and did not give in to each other in the slightest. It was no longer a relationship between reward and punishment, it had become a contest between the authority of the lord of the city and the authority of these nobles.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this for the time being, after all, it's all a matter between nobles and ordinary people, and we won't care about those commoners. Suddenly, an old nobleman spoke.

The other nobles' eyes widened, and they looked incredulous, how did this guy rebel.

But the next moment, the old nobleman pointed to a picture and said, "Don't move, go a little further, this is it." Suddenly, the person next to him followed his words, and the control screen stopped.

The old nobleman said: "Forget about the commoners, you look at this, it is this one who was injured by mistake, this is not a commoner." If I remember correctly, he was the son of Viscount Loulor. You see, his leg was injured by mistake. ”

The nobles' eyes lit up, yes, that guy's leg was accidentally injured by a holy light arrow. But in the next picture, it was this injured man who directly commanded his guards to run away with his back on his back, not caring that he was still fighting at this time. and the style of the others around him are completely different things, attracting a lot of contempt.

The nobles also felt very shameless, but at this time, they could not give up arguing.

"Wait, does Viscount Rulore still have this son? I think he had only two sons, and this is not any of them. Suddenly, a senior military official said suspiciously.

The old nobleman's face changed slightly, and he said with some embarrassment: "It's not a descendant, it's an illegitimate child." But anyway, this is also the son of a viscount, and the accidental injury is a little unreasonable.

"Hmph, it turned out to be just an illegitimate child, but there are regulations in the code of nobility. Bastard children do not have the right to inherit and are not recognized by the nobility, how can this be said to be from the nobility. ”

Now the lord of the castle began to talk about things with the code of nobility. No matter what time it is, as long as it is beneficial to you, you must take it, and if it is not beneficial to yourself, you must refute it to the end, this is the style of the aristocracy.

"By the way, there is also the matter of this guy's escape, and he must also be investigated. ”

The city lord said without hesitation, no matter what, the city lord is also an earl, and he is also a real power earl, not just a viscount can fight against. Not to mention, it's just an illegitimate child.

"But he's wounded, and it's normal for him to retreat when he's injured. ”

"What's the situation, someone else is also injured, why didn't he retreat, it's different for him? Besides, if he wants to retreat, he will retreat, why let others take it away, reducing an important combat strength. "It's true that that person is his subordinate, but it's also true that he has lost one combat strength on the battlefield.

"Now it's not a matter of escaping, it's a matter of accidental injury, the son of a nobleman, even if it's just an illegitimate child, can't be accidentally injured casually, it must be solved in a noble way. ”

The topics of discussion between the two sides are really getting stranger and stranger. However, this is not a matter related to the development of White Rock City after all, and the city lord did not hesitate to argue, wanting to vent all the anger he had just suffered. As the two sides argued, the smell of gunpowder became stronger and stronger.

Even later, I didn't know where to deviate from this topic. The two sides were just trying to overpower each other, not discussing Du You's reward. Time gradually passed, and finally, there were still high-ranking military officials who couldn't stand it. They waste their time like this, so they might as well do something right.

In the end, both sides took a step back and finally settled the matter.

Du You rested at home for a day, and at noon the next day, someone finally came to Du You.

"Lord Du You, the city lord asked you to come over. Du You nodded slightly, he knew that it should be his reward that had finally come down. Du You's requirements are not high, as long as he can have territorial authority.

He followed the attendant all the way to the City Lord's Mansion, and this attendant was not a herald of the military, but a noble attendant.

Because this time it is for meritorious rewards, and Du You is not a member of the military, he cannot be promoted, but can only reward the status of the nobles. The things are different, so the people sent out are also different.

Du You saw the city lord Duka for the first time, and also saw the bright level 30 label on the city lord's head.

Unexpectedly, the city lord is still a third-order peak existence, and he doesn't know when he will be able to break through to the fourth order, no wonder he can suppress everything in Baishi City and become the strongest person guarding Baishi City.

Seeing Du You's arrival, the city lord nodded with great satisfaction: "Yes, yes, come and sit, we have seen the contribution you have made." However, given that you are from a civilian background, there is more resistance, and the rewards will be discounted, so you don't mind. ”

Du You was stunned for a moment, and then he roughly figured it out, it was not his own person, and the nobles certainly didn't want outsiders to improve their status.

"I understand that I will continue to try to prove myself. ”

This answer was decent, and the city lord was also very satisfied with Du You's knowledge of current affairs.

"It doesn't matter, there will be opportunities in the future, and I believe that your strength can do it. After our discussion, you will be rewarded with two choices, and you will decide how to choose. ”
