Outside the palace gate of Besançon, Ron stood with his sword in a wooden shed by the stable outside the palace gate, the wooden shed was very poorly built, and the palace was heavily guarded, so no one was allowed to carry weapons and retinues when entering the palace, so Ron, like the other guards, waited in the wooden shed for Art's audience.

Those who were called to the audience were not ordinary people, so their attendants were treated with some privileges, and a clerk in the wooden shed with two servants provided them with some hot soup, wine, and bread and cereal.

Ron had a knighthood, and he was treated more - a separate wooden table and a more sumptuous wine and meat, but Ron had no appetite, and Baron Caitland had already left the palace in an audience, and his own lord had not yet left.

He looked left and right with the hilt of his sword, his eyes fixed on the temple door.

After a long time, Art, who was holding things in both hands, finally walked out of the temple gate, and Ron walked up in three steps and two steps to take the things in Art's hands.

"Sir, what is this?" Ron was holding a large pile of clothes and paperwork.

"The court has canonized me as a baron of the frontier, and these are my golden book documents and viscount dresses." Art glanced at what was in Ron's hand and walked straight to the stable.

Ron held the golden book of the dress in one hand and rummaged through it for a long time with the other, "What about the fiefdom book?" ”

"Master, where is the fiefdom book?" Ron catches up with Art.

"There are no fiefdoms."

"Ah???h

That night, Art asked Ron to summon Robert the Priest of the Army, and now there are not many people around Art who can discuss things, this impure priest is his brainchild, "The court has promoted me to the title of Viscount of the Frontier, according to the military achievements of the commanders of the Wells Legion, I can nominate a leading baron among the officers of the Wells Legion, and personally canonize three knights of the Inner Palace, fifteen ordinary knights, and eight probationary knights." ”

"After these promotions return to the valley, I will personally lead the Chinese army to command the camp for all the very approved military merits, and promote them to knighthoods according to their military merits." Although the court has not yet given Yate and his commanders substantial rewards, the titles are still sufficient, you must know that these are all new nobles under Art, and there will be the original lords in the fief after Arte grants the fief in the future.

"Robert, how about you get in touch with the Valley Church to be upgraded?" The lord of Art has been promoted, and it stands to reason that the Viscount's territory can set up a low-level bishop and five priests to correspond to the divine assistants, and Robert is the military priest of Art, so of course it is more appropriate for him to do these things.

Robert, dressed in a white robe with a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, had just visited a few old acquaintances at Besançon Cathedral, and the ecclesiastical forces were not fully involved in this civil unrest, except for the uneasy religious elites such as Bishop Orlof and Archbishop Besançon, who were openly or implicitly supporting, the rest of the clergy of the Church chose to wait and see.

Now that Besançon is broken, the churches and temples in and outside the city have been affected by the war, but the Archbishop of Besançon, who has been following Bernard's faction, has finally fled to the western province of Saône.

After the Archbishop of Besançon fled, Olof immediately entered the Cathedral of Besançon under the name of "temporary administration", and a large number of bishops, priests and other clergy transferred from the diocese of Lucesen were stationed in Besançon.

Robert took out a cotton towel from his cuff and wiped the fine sweat on his forehead, "Bishop Orlof went to Dijon last week, thinking that he was planning to promote the Archbishop of Besançon, I found Lord Orlov's assistant bishop and donated 10,000 pfenni to the church in your name, and then the assistant bishop has promised to immediately start preparing for the promotion of the diocese of the valley, and he has signaled that you submit the proposal for the bishop of the valley territory as soon as possible, and the cathedral of Besançon will appoint it." ”

Buying the religious appointment and dismissal of the viscounty's territory for 10,000 fennies is not a loss or a profit, but Art has been controlling the infiltration of church forces in his actual territory, because he does not want the clerical power to tie his hands and feet.

Art nodded, and glanced at Father Robert, this guy has been working hard as a personal advisor and legion advisor since the time of the Provencal War, so he decided to surprise this impure priest.

"I have already thought about the nomination of bishop, and I will go to the cathedral myself tomorrow."

As soon as Art's words came out, Robert's nerves tensed, and at present, there are a total of two clergy with the rank of god by Art's side, and Father Hamish has been in Att's place for a long time and has enough qualifications, but Robert thinks that it is not without opportunities to often follow Art's side and make significant achievements.

"Robert, Hamish has been in charge of the church affairs in my territory, and he has kept the church and several chapels in order, so he will still be in charge of the church affairs of the viscounty in the future."

Robert's face froze, and his forehead began to sweat again, "Yes~ Yes, my lord is right, Father Hamish has done an excellent job." Robert barely managed to squeeze out a smile.

Art nodded approvingly at Robert, "Well, you will be the first bishop of the Diocese of the Valley." But Hamish is the presiding priest, and the Diocese of the Valley is in charge of all the affairs of the Church, and you continue to be my advisor to me. ”

"Yes, Father Hamish should be promoted...... Robert paused.

"My lord, what did you just say?"

"I said I intend to nominate you as the first bishop of the Valley of Wales and appoint you as my chief advisor."

Robert's eyes widened more and more, he didn't expect that he could really become a bishop, as a clergyman, a bishop is already a change of identity, and self-teaching is considered a high-level priesthood.

"Thank you, sir, I will help you!" This is a sign of loyalty.

"Robert, this is all you should have, but I want to make peace with you, Hamish is in charge of the church affairs in my territory, and you are by my side to advise."

"Yes, sir." Robert couldn't hide his joy, and an irrepressible smile appeared on his face.

"All right, Robert, go down and rest. Did you go and see if Stanley and Emory were back? If you come back, let them come to me. ”

Robert exited the room, and a few moments later, Stanley and Emory walked in, and the undercover mission Ron and Stanley Emory that Art had arranged yesterday began today.

“...... My lord, the maid was a little pretentious, she was originally the secret mistress of the owner of a manor outside the city, and when Besançon was besieged, the lord of the manor fled to the west, and this woman stayed behind and took her son to hide in the city and take refuge in a secret brothel to survive. ”

"I bought her and her son for one hundred and eighty pfennigs, and she herself was sent to Earl Balwin's mansion as a servant, and the butler of Balwyn's mansion I knew that the old pervert would not let the woman go, and as for her son, he would stay in my shop as a handyman, so that I would not be afraid of the woman's disobedience......" Emory is worthy of running a hotel, and is very skilled in these things.

"That woman doesn't know who you are, does she?" Art asked.

"I don't know, she just thought I gave her away as a secret gift to please the butler, and I don't plan to use her right now, I'll let her play her role until she stabilizes her footing......"

Art nodded, "You have done a good job, as long as she can send what we want from the Earl's Court in the future, she will not be stingy with rewards, and her son will also control ......"

The eyes and ears of Earl Balwyn were planted, and the few people continued to discuss how to put eyes and ears into the court......

It wasn't until the middle of the night that a set of methods that worked was discussed.

"Well, you all have to do these things, the Moulin Rouge must be established as soon as possible, and the Eagle Eye around Besançon must be set up as soon as possible, and I am waiting for you to weave this spider web as soon as possible." Art concluded.

"Yes, I will live up to my lordship!"

"Alright, you go back and rest, Ron pack up, we'll visit Earl Balwyn tomorrow, and you can prepare the 60,000 pfennig of gold and silver......"
