Chapter 69 New Decree

Leaving Catherine's room, Lear and his staff and assistants were busy until midnight to formulate the first edition of the "Lear's Domain Noble Freedom Act", after the meeting, the eyes of these people looked at Lear changed, Early the next morning, the senior staff and senior assistants of the Earl's Court rushed to the town hall, so that the people in the town hall had to pass the bill as soon as possible.

By noon, Watson had come to Lear with a freshly printed decree document, and the Earl's Court was full of people.

There were three squadrons of 300 private soldiers and three squadrons of garrisons of 300 men, each of whom was armed with a military and crossbow.

The whole of Port Lear has a private army of 3,500 men and a garrison of 2,000 men.

The Earl could only raise 3,000 private soldiers, but Grant the Great owed the old earl, so he allowed Port Lear to have the Marquis's private army, that is, 5,000 men, and allowed the garrison to use military and crossbows that could only be used by the regular army, but the number could not exceed 500. However, in order to show respect for the imperial decrees, the old earl has maintained only 3,500 men, even if he can support 5,000 private soldiers.

However, the second earl played a little trick on the military and crossbows, and spent a lot of money to transform the military and crossbows into magic crossbows, and three experienced high-level warrior crossbowmen joined forces to easily kill the junior swordsmen in the distance.

In addition to this, there are four high-level swordsmen, six intermediate swordsmen, and twenty junior swordsmen, one high-level magician, two intermediate magicians, five junior magicians, and twelve magic apprentices.

There was also a garrison squadron in front of the ranks.

These men were heavily armed, almost as close to Lear's knighthood that day.

Lear finds Catherine and Susan with the papers.

"Susan, I'll give you a chance to get revenge on Viscount Jefferson, will you do it?" asked Lear.

The old lady was so angry that she didn't sleep well last night. Susan said through gritted teeth.

Lear nodded and said, "Okay, you go to Jefferson and let him beat you, and then you tear your clothes and say he forced you." ”

Susan suddenly blushed: "Don't say it, just do it......"

"Susan!" Catherine couldn't help but scold, blushing.

Susan shouted dissatisfiedly: "The old lady has been to a few drunks, and I have never had sex with a sober man in my life, and every time the old lady takes off her clothes, they put on their clothes!

Lear covered his forehead with the people behind him, and finally he said, "In this way, I will give you permission to hook up with any man in the Earl's Court, remember, you must not use force, you must be gentle." You give me a good job...... No, put on a good show, let him beat you, and make others believe that he is strong (female,) you. ”

Susan looked at the young Earl with grief, pointed to the private soldiers and garrisons outside the door, and shouted: "Can you find anyone among these hundreds who dares to force me? You find one, and I will give you 10 gold carats! Do you believe that Jefferson is a viscount who is strong (woman,) me?

Lear couldn't help but laugh and said, "No matter how much, it's best to use you, the less others believe it, the better the effect." Let me ask you a word, five thousand gold carats, do you want to do it!"

Susan pondered for a moment, then asked tentatively, "Shall I go to Viscount Jefferson and ask for a hundred gold carats?"

Lear said angrily: "Be serious, ask you if you want to do it?"

Susan glared at him dissatisfied, and said, "Idiots don't do it, enough for me to be a mercenary for thirty years." "She's only an intermediate-level fighter at the moment, and she can only earn one hundred and fifty gold carats a year.

As Lear is about to leave, Susan suddenly remembers Lear's promise that he would give her a shop if he made it to Port Lear alive.

Susan immediately stood up and said, "Count Lear, you have to speak with credit. You said that if I lived, I would be given a shop, the kind that would earn 50,000 gold carats!"

Lear smiled dumbly and said, "Okay, as long as you can do a good job this time, I promise to give you a shop, the kind that can earn five thousand gold carats a year, how about it?"

"It's a deal!" Susan sheathed her sword and left, Lear sending a high-ranking swordsman to secretly protect her from the unexpected.

When Susan is gone, Lear wakes up Ness, who is dazed, and takes her with her.

Lear led nearly 1,000 men to Viscount Jefferson's mansion in Port Lear, and saw Susan, who was slightly injured, tearing her clothes, blocking only three key points, and scolding at the door, so that Jefferson's subordinates couldn't raise their heads.

When Jefferson was about to kill him, he saw Lear's men appear, and secretly said that it was not good, because there was something shady in his mansion. But he was a fiefdom viscount, and he didn't think that Count Lear dared to do anything to himself.

Lear rode on his horse and, with a wave of his hand, the private army rushed over to surround the mansion, the garrison prepared to shoot, and the garrison blocked the surrounding streets from entering.

But their ranks were so large that they were too conspicuous, and now it was daylight, and thousands of people were soon gathered not far away, and there were more and more of them.

Viscount Jefferson craned his neck and shouted, "Count Lear, if you don't give me a reasonable explanation, I'll go to the House of Lords to sue you!"

Lear snapped his fingers and said, "Watson, read to him the First Edition of the Lear's Domain Noble Liberty Act." ”

So, Watson began to read aloud.

In order to protect the nobility, the House of Lords made a very harsh decree, and unless the approval of the House of Lords or the royal family was obtained, no matter what mistake the nobles committed, they could only be fined up to one hundred gold carats. Moreover, the Horman Empire decree clearly stipulated that it was not illegal for nobles to kill civilians in their own domains, and that they were liable to fines for killing civilians in other people's territories.

Lear's first reaction when he learned of these decrees was disgust. He has never been a righteous person, and even because he is currently a nobleman, he will take the initiative to defend the interests of the nobles, but he really can't accept this kind of bullshit decree.

Lear's "Noble Liberty Act, First Edition", has only two articles.

First, the nobles have the right to beat the commoners at will! However, in order to protect the nobles from accidentally killing the commoners, the following regulations are specially formulated to protect the nobles:

1. For every drop of blood spit out by commoners, nobles need to pay 100 gold carats;

2. If a commoner has a wound, the nobleman shall pay 100 gold carats per tenth of an inch (about 3 mm, not inches);

3. If the commoners have bruises, the nobles shall pay 100 gold carats per tenth of a square inch;

4. In the event of the death of a commoner, the nobles shall pay 100 gold carats per gram of the deceased's weight.

Second, the nobility had the right to insult the commoners at will. However, in order to protect the pleasures of the nobility, the following regulations are enacted to protect the nobility.

1. The nobleman pays 100 gold carats for every tenth of a second of physical contact with a commoner.

2. If the nobles touch the commoners, they will pay 100 gold carats for every tenth of the square inch they touch.

Note: Fines under the Liberty Act require a personal signature from the Mayor.

Lear did not break the law, because he took advantage of the law by issuing a split fine.

Jefferson was furious, and if he were to be fined like this, Susan's wounds alone would cost him a Juggernaut weapon—and many of them were long, shallow cuts made by Susan herself.

Jefferson's men soon came out to protect their master, and the two sides were tense and could go to war at any moment.
