Chapter 207: The Familiar Story of Gu Yu Town "Continued"
The old man was helpless but still agreed to the Duke's woman's request, but he offered to send some precious medicinal materials to his righteous daughter to prolong her life, and the Duke's woman agreed without thinking about it.
The duke's woman then held various banquets for a month, at which the duke's woman introduced the old man as her husband to the nobles she saw.
At a banquet, all the nobles in the surrounding kingdoms and dukes already knew that the duke's woman's husband was an old man, so the duke's woman felt that the time had come, so she decided to give up the duke's seat to the old man, but unfortunately the old man refused.
But the Duke's woman threatened his granddaughter's whereabouts, and the old man sensed that the Duke's woman wanted him to stay with her for a long time, and it was impossible to tell her granddaughter's whereabouts now.
And the old man told his granddaughter of his whereabouts before he was willing to inherit the position of duke.
The two quarreled for a week over the dukeship, and they didn't quarrel for a result, so someone proposed that the old man be the national teacher, so that no one gossiped, and they didn't have to quarrel.
The duke's woman thought that was a good point, so she directly made the old man the national teacher of her principality, and the old man agreed, after all, the national teacher did not need to manage the country, and he had great power, and the most important thing was freedom.
Then the duke's woman wanted to continue the banquet, and the old man could no longer tolerate the duke's woman's extravagant behavior, so he directly withdrew from the banquet in advance to express his dissatisfaction.
After the feast, the duke's woman asked the old man why he had left early, and the old man replied that he did not want to eat the flesh of her people and drink the blood of her people, and angrily asked the duke woman if she knew that many of her people had starved to death.
Hearing the old man's angry tone, the duke woman calmly led the old man to the Duchy warehouse and asked him to open the warehouse door.
The old man looked at the staggering wealth in the storehouse, and he looked at the duke woman and became angry, saying that sooner or later she would die at the hands of his own people.
The duke woman smiled when she heard the old man's words, because she could hear the anger in the old man's tone and a hint of worry, so she explained that the wealth of this warehouse did not belong to their family in the first place, but the wealth looted by the previous duke.
At the same time, the duke's woman told the old man that their family had taken advantage of the old man's prestige to ascend to the throne, but in the end they could become the master of the duchy because the previous duke was too greedy and forced the nobles around him to hand over a large amount of wealth, which led the nobles to oppose him, and overthrew the duke with the father of the duke's woman and exiled him to other countries.
And the reason why the duke's woman did not take out money to help her people was because 95% of the land of the entire duchy was in the hands of the nobles, and it was useless to use the wealth to help the people.
That's because once wealth is distributed to the people, it doesn't turn into food, but rather brings disaster.
The duke's woman saw that the old man did not believe it, so she asked the guards to fill a bag of the wealth here, and then gave it to the old man, and the old man himself distributed it to the poor to see what would happen to them.
So after the old man took the money and experimented with himself, he found that all the money he gave to the poor people went to the nobles, and dozens of people were framed and imprisoned by the nobles because they refused to hand over the money.
The old man returned to the castle and asked the duke why she didn't change the situation, and the duke woman told him that in fact, her father became the new duke, because her father was a puppet in the hands of the nobles, and when the people started a riot that day, it was her father who followed in the footsteps of the previous duke, and the wealth of the warehouse was evidence of the duke's looting of the people's fat and ointment.
At the same time, the duke's woman also told the old man that the banquet every day this month was to reduce the wealth of the warehouse and win over the nobles, so that her family could be continued.
When the old man heard the duke's woman's explanation, he told the duke's woman that the nobles under her command could not be trusted and must be reformed.
When the duke's woman heard the old man's words, she handed over all her loyal servants and soldiers, as well as her right-hand maid niece, into the old man's hands, so that he could change the duchy.
The old man thought about it, and he pushed the duke's woman and niece to the forefront, and began the reform with his wisdom.
And the reform of the old man directly moved the interests of the nobles, so the nobles began to assassinate all kinds of assassinations, but unfortunately there were old people who failed in all the assassinations of those nobles.
The nobles saw that the assassination was useless, so they called the previous duke and organized a united army to crusade against the duke women and regain the rights they had.
As a result, the old man shot alone, and he single-handedly killed all those nobles and nobles in the army of tens of thousands, causing the collapse of the combined army.
It's a pity that when the old man came back, the duke's woman died of poisoning, and it turned out that the nobles organized a united army while bribing the servants around the duke's woman to poison the duke's woman, and as a result, as soon as the old man left, the duke's woman ate poisonous food without knowing it.
The old man was very sad and regretful, and when the old man was grieving, the duke's niece gave a letter to the old man, and told the old man that in fact, the duke's woman only had half a year's life, and she was already facing death at any time.
And the content of this letter is that if the old man kills the duke woman when he sees it, then the old man will see an avenger and a granddaughter in Guyu Town fifteen years later.
After reading the letter, the duke's woman's niece told him that the duke's woman had revoked the avengers, but only the duke's woman knew the whereabouts of the old man's granddaughter, and without her personally opening her mouth to inform her whereabouts, then it was impossible for everyone here to know the whereabouts of the old man's granddaughter, so the old man had to wait 15 years to see his granddaughter in Guyu Town.
And the old man told the man at the end of the letter that he was ashamed of his righteous daughter and him, and that he would not see the man again until he found his granddaughter.
After reading the contents of the letter, the man already understood the cause and effect, and he did not blame the old man, because he knew that he and his wife had lived happily for so long and had a daughter thanks to the old man, if there was no old man, they would have met again in the underworld, and at the same time, the man decided to return to the home in Gu Yu Town.
When the man returned to his home in Guyu Town, he saw the clothes he had been wearing for his wife for a long time, so he put on women's clothes again and opened a tavern to wait for his daughter's arrival. ”。
While wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes with a hand towel, Danny Siyi asked, "Student Yan Tielong, the owner of the story you are talking about is the owner of this tavern!"
Yan Tielong nodded and responded: "Well, my version of this story is the version that is widely circulated in the town after all, of course, there are several versions that are more exaggerated. ”。
Denissey looked at the way Kimliel laughed and talked to the women around her, and asked, "Is this tavern owner also popular with girls because of this story?"
Yan Tielong nodded when he heard Denny's words: "Well, it does have a lot to do with this, I'm worried that you don't underestimate his charm just by looking at him wearing women's clothes." ”。
"Trainee Yan Tielong, that's all for the tavern owner's topic!By the way, this is a magic encyclopedia, a book that can only be read by elite members of our academy!" After finishing speaking, Danny Siyi took out a book that was exactly the same as the one in Yan Tielong's space ring.
When Yan Tielong saw the book, he asked Danny Siyi, "Mentor Dannysiyi, is there a student named Lan Lias in Tianyu Academy before?"
When Denisie heard Yan Tielong's inquiry, she fell into her memories and shook her head when she came back to her senses.
Yan Tielong shook his head when he saw Danishy and continued to ask, "Mentor Danishii, will this magic book spread outside the academy?"
Denissia replied directly: "Impossible, as far as I know, there are three copies of the magic encyclopedia, one is in the special library of the academy, where can you enter empty-handed and come out empty-handed, the second is in my grandfather's hands, it is even more impossible for him to give the book to others, and the third is here with me." ”。
Yan Tielong heard Dannysey's answer, he hesitated and took out the magic power of his spatial ring and said, "This is the magic power of a mercenary group named Lan Lias, which she temporarily lent me to read!"
When Danny Siyi saw Yan Tielong's magic power, her eyes widened in disbelief, and when she opened the magic power book and looked at the contents, she looked up at Yan Tielong and asked, "Yan Tielong student, can I meet your companion?"
Yan Tielong agreed after a little hesitation, so Yan Tielong took back the magic power of Long Lias, and then he took Danysia and walked towards the noble district.
When Yan Tielong took Danny Siyi to the only inn in the aristocratic district, he was stopped by the guards at the door of the inn.
When the guards learned that the two in front of them were magicians, they politely asked Yan Tielong and Danny if they were guests at the inn.
When the guards learned that the two of them were looking for someone, one of them entered the inn to look for Long Lias, and Yan Tielong asked if there was a big man in the other soldier?
And the guards were a little embarrassed and said that the hotel was not a big deal for Yan Tielong and their magicians, just a baron, but that baron liked to make a row place very much, so he asked Yan Tielong for their forgiveness.
It didn't take long for Christia to come out, and Denise seemed to understand something, but before she could speak, she was interrupted by Christia: "Sister Sy, why are you here?".
At the same time, while Yan Tielong was not paying attention, she whispered a few words to Danissey, and Danissy looked at Yan Tielong with some surprise and asked the soldier about the baron in the inn, so she whispered some questions about Christy, and Christi's answer made Danissiy suddenly realize, and then they chatted happily.
