Chapter 50: The Trial Begins
The sky is clear and blue, and there are no clouds. Pen~fun~éwww.biquge.info23us.updateThe fastest morning sun is pale yellow, sprinkling brilliance on the earth. The golden circle of the cathedral shines golden in the sun, and the white walls and white stone pillars used for support are pale yellow and cool grayish-white, making the whole cathedral look holy and solemn.
A group of golden-robed men dressed in chain mail and armed with spears stood in two rows on the steps outside the church, their robes lifted by the breeze, looking like guardian statues outside the cathedral.
I call you piracy, I call you piracy, I just open the whole line, so that you will lose everything.
"Cliff! Sing a song!" "Cliff, I love you!" "Cliff, my favorite!"
The melodious sound of the lute sounded, the handsome bard touched his mustache, showed a shallow smile, and his slender fingers gently plucked the strings, singing a narrative poem "The Joy of God", the general content of which is that the goddess of harvest and the goddess of youth love the god of war at the same time, and the god of war loves the goddess of harvest. The god of light, a friend of the god of war, is obsessed with the goddess of youth.
In order to win her sweetheart, the goddess of youth turns to the goddess of love for help. The goddess of love gave her a love potion, which she could make the other person fall in love with her just by sprinkling it on her sweetheart.
One day, the goddess of harvest and the god of war went to the oracle garden of the goddess of love, and after fighting in the depths of love, they fell asleep one after another. The goddess of youth was so sad that she was holding a love potion in her hand and wanted to sprinkle it on the god of war. Unexpectedly, she was weak in heart and knocked down the god of light.
The love potion was sprinkled on the bodies of the three gods. The god of light fell in love with the goddess of harvest, and the god of war fell in love with the goddess of youth. The goddess of harvest lost her love and sent a duel to the goddess of youth, and the god of light and the god of war turned against each other, thinking that the god of war was facing Qin and Duchu, and also duel with the god of war.
The duel between the goddess of harvest and the goddess of youth caused torrential rains, strong winds, and grain failures, and young people on land were constantly aging early. The god of light had no time to drive the sun, the ground was shrouded in darkness, and the sky was thundering and lightning all day long as the weapons of the two male gods collided.
Thor is furious and lets the goddess of wisdom rule fairly. Under the mediation of the goddess of wisdom, the goddess of love lifts the magic of the love potion, and the lovers are finally married, and the friends are reconciled as before.
"Singing great!" said Master Karl, "using rhyme in many places, witty and humorous." I heard that Cliff was one of the most popular bards of the Empire. ā
"What? I tell you, he ......" Sean rolled his eyes, and he almost blurted out that Olaf was Cliff, but he gulped down the words with a gulp of malt beer.
"What's wrong with him?" wondered Maester Karl, "I think his voice is pretty good. ā
When he sang, his eyes glanced at those girls, and you didn't notice that he threw his eyebrows at the big-breasted and hip-cocked girl over there, and then to the girl who looked like he was just beginning to fall in love, yes, the one with a flushed face, and when he sang about the goddess of harvest and the god of war, he couldn't take his eyes off the girl. Sean touched his proud blackbeard, "I dare, until late at night, he will reveal his true colors, like a wolf and a tiger." ā
"Oh my God, that is, a full five months. Isaac looked at Bill, "The girls are in their shirts and curvy, and we've had plenty of time to feast our eyes on." It's a lot of fun to play in the water with the girls, isn't it?
"Isaac, don't learn Olaf Kruger, let alone be a fool. Sebastian stopped, "You should have a shape." ā
"Oh my God, Your Majesty the Regent, don't be so serious. It's a hot summer, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer is young and vigorous, and it's normal to care about the girls. Bill smiled, "After all, young people have more important things to do than work." ā
I have nothing but work. Sebastian felt thirsty in his throat, poured himself a glass of juice, moistened his throat, and said, "But Isaac reminded me that if it is so hot for a long time, we should think about the drought and the autumn harvest." ā
"Your Majesty the Regent, in the vicinity of Thundercastle, I have ordered the digging of a new cistern as soon as possible. "I also have a suggestion to encourage farmers in the provinces to improve their irrigation systems through tax cuts or subsidies. ā
"Very good advice!Bell, you are very attentive!If necessary, the Empire's artisan affairs department will send someone to guide you. "Sebastian is very pleased with the new master craftsman, and Bell is often able to think of Sebastian together, even more long-term and thoughtful.
Isaac was dumbfounded, he looked at the master craftsman, then at Bill, and asked, "Am I right? Tax cuts, subsidies? It's all money! The treasury is very empty, and he owes a lot of debt, where is he going to get the money?" At this time, Isaac looked like the former Chancellor of the Exchequer, Krauter Wiggins.
Alfred stood up, squinted at Chamberlain, turned to Earl Arryn and yelled, "Kuhn is your relative, and also a distant relative of Karen, Karen Madison's ghost was so frightened that he fled back to Lion Castle overnight, and it seems that you are also old and cowardly. ā
Veretta was furious, she gritted her teeth, and said word by word, "Please take back your words, Viscount, you are making a big deal of nonsense about the Duke." ā
"your duke. Count Arryn is a vassal of Karen, but I am not. Viscount Alfred looked at Veretta, "Woman, I remember, I heard that there was a woman who slept with Karen, and Karen didn't want her, and couldn't get rid of her, so he made her a knight." The name of the sissy: Rose Knight. ā
Veretta stood, her scabbard tightened, reason telling her to restrain herself as much as possible. But Viscount Alfred was not so good-tempered, and he drew his sword.
"Hey, what do you want to do?" Viscount Byron stood up, and as soon as he finished speaking, he was pushed down by Alfred, and the plate and bowl fell to the ground.
Earl Arryn's guards drew their swords and approached Alfred.
"Father!" said Brooke Arryn, who knelt down on one knee, "I think Uncle Alfred is right, and we can't put up with it again and again. We should let Rundstedt pay the bloody debt. ā
The old earl drew a sword from Brooke's waist, the gauntlet of the hilt was golden, and the blade was split on both sides. His voice was low and majestic: "Alfred, get down on your knees and don't force me to do it. You have insulted my feudal lord and my honored guest, and if you dare to resist, I will treat you as if you had drawn your sword against me. ā
"Drawing a sword against one's own feudal lord is a capital crime. Baron Chamberlain intervened, "Viscount Alfred, no one doubts your bravery, but your bravery should not be played here. ā
Alfred gritted his teeth, was silent for a moment, snorted, and finally chose to kneel and put away his sword.
After a false alarm, everyone returned to their seats.
Earl Arryn's sharp eyes scanned everyone at the table, and after enjoying the bread in silence, he spoke: "What does the Arryn family and you rely on to survive for hundreds of years? We always look at the big picture and follow the trend. When the Kingdom of Meno was invaded by the Kingdom of Orlando, we fought valiantly to defend our homeland. Therefore the people loved us, and the king appreciated us. ā
"So we can't live up to their love! our people are suffering!" continued Viscount Alfred.
"When King Madison bowed down to Emperor Rhodes, we took advantage of the situation and saved the family. Earl Arryn's eyes widened, "I see, I'm tougher than everyone here when it's time to be tough, but we don't survive by the courage of a horseman." ā
Veretta was very close to the Count, and she felt a strong domineering spirit emerge from the Count's shriveled body, which came from the confidence in her heart. The Earl's words made Alfred shut up.
"In the Empire, we have the laws of the Empire, and we ask the Regent to do justice and get a fair verdict," Count Arryn stroked his beard, "and he will make Rundstedt compensate us." If he favors the Golden Family, it's not too late for us to send troops. ā
"Why?" wondered Brooke, "doesn't that mean that gives Rundstedt time to prepare for war?"
Earl Arryn's eyes widened, "You should really learn from your brother. Brooke, the Arryn family never violates others, and will not let others violate them, we fight wars, and we always hold the banner of justice. ā
Brooke's face flushed when he heard this.
The Count stood up: "Kuhn's death also has his own responsibility. If you send troops for this, it will be tantamount to making the whole empire an enemy. This time it's different, justice is with us. Even if the regent favors the Golden Family, the other provinces will stand with us. I'm tired and adjourned. ā
At night in Greensburg, you can hear the sound of the Lorenz River running water. The Lorenz River under the moonlight is sparkling, quiet and beautiful. The breeze rustled through the trees in the distance.
Veretta stood on the balcony of the long hall, the breeze blowing in her face, bringing the coolness of the night. She had taken off her plate armor, changed into trousers and a long gown, ripped off her breasts, her chest was no longer tense, and she breathed in the humid night air to calm her heart.
"The night is beautiful, isn't it?" said Count Arryn as he walked slowly.
Veretta turned around, saluted, and replied, "It's quiet and serene, it's beautiful." ā
Count Erin put his hand on the edge of the balcony, looked at the Lorenz River in distraction, and said softly: "For more than 00 years, my family has been protecting the people and territory here. ā
Veretta blinked, and she saw the farmhouse looming in the distance: "The Arryn family has a long-standing feud with the Rundstett family. I thought they wouldn't covet your territory anymore after they discovered the gold mines. ā
"Greed is human nature, and robbers are especially so. The Count smiled contemptuously, "Even if they are well-dressed, dressed in gold and silver, they are still robbers. ā
The Count turned around, looked at Veretta, and praised, "Brian's daughter has grown so big, I remember what you looked like when you were child, child, you were holding a wooden sword and riding on your father's neck. ā
Veretta smiled shyly and said, "I also remember that Shylock was riding on your neck, and the two of us were fighting swords. You and your father yelled, and we were so happy. ā
The Earl's expression was a little gloomy, "Time has passed, and we are all old. ā
"No, you're the same age as my father, and you're strong. Veretta shook her head.
"David is still doing the work of the Knight Commander. And I'm worried that there will be no successor to the lord. The Count sighed, "Shylock went to learn magic, and was burned to the ground. ā
Veretta slipped through bitterness and asked, "Did you see him?"
"No, the military department won't let me visit and won't let him go. The Count's hand couldn't help but clasp the bricks on the balcony, "He was an important survivor. I don't know anything about the wizarding world, and I was against him studying magic in the first place. (To be continued.) )
