With all that said, Margaret had already understood Eugen's original meaning. She took a deep breath, and finally nodded and said, "Okay, since you're not afraid, then what am I afraid of." I will be the consul of the city of Lybor and help you build the city. ”

Eugen smiled and excitedly shook Margaret's hand and said, "Haha, thank you." Then he thought of something again, and asked with a hint of doubt on his face: "However, if you help me go back here, there will be no problem on the family side." ”

Margaret shook her head, but didn't elaborate. In fact, her grandfather, the patriarch of the Medici, Duke Gian, ordered Margaret to help Eugen here.

However, she still frowned and said impatiently: "No problem, no problem, no problem, but can you let go of my hand." ”

Eugen had an awkward smile on his face, finally letting go of Margaret's hand, and then turned his head to look around, pretending to be looking at the scenery.

He was very happy that he had easily solved the mayor's vacancy, and his plan for Lybor City had made a good start at the moment.

Just when he looked around, Eugen suddenly saw a person staring at him out of the corner of his eye, and when he looked over there, he saw a strong man with fierce eyes, who was really glaring at him.

There was a steak on the table in front of the big man, holding a knife and fork in both hands, and he was cutting the steak fiercely. It looked like he had thought of Eugen for the steak.

Eugen's gaze met that of the big man, but the big man did not dodge, but instead showed a grim smile on his face. Eugen smiled at him as well, then looked away.

"Parma, tell me about Tariq Vetina, this guy looks like he's not going to mess with." Turning to face Parma, Eugen spoke.

Seeing Eugen looking at him, Parma said without thinking: "Tariq Vetina, a member of the Vetina family, the Saxony princehood where their family is located is strong in force and advocates fighting ......"

At this point, Parma suddenly closed her mouth and stopped talking, and turned her gaze from Eugen to Eugen's back, as if to remind Eugen of something.

Eugen was puzzled and wanted to ask a question, when suddenly a rough voice sounded from behind him: "Hahaha, hello, Count Eugen." ”

As he spoke, a thick furry palm rested on Eugen's left shoulder, which was a very impolite act, especially since Eugen was now an earl, which could already be called an offense.

Eugen had already guessed what was happening, he slowly turned his head to look in the direction where the voice came from, the expression on his face was like a smile, and he said politely: "Hello, Viscount Tariq, please take your palm off my shoulder." ”

Although Eugen's tone was calm, as soon as these words came out, the surroundings suddenly fell silent, and the air seemed to freeze.

The sound of the liturgical music at the banquet came to an abrupt end, and everyone put aside what they were doing for a while, and looked at Eugen and Tariq with bated breath.

Viscount Tariq didn't seem to expect Eugen to say it directly, he smiled and withdrew his palm, but his eyes were even more fierce, only to hear him laugh and say, "Hahaha, Count Eugen." You see, I'm middle-aged, and I have two little cubs at home, and I like to hold their shoulders when it's okay. I accidentally got used to it, and I was really embarrassed just now. ”

Eugen's eyes suddenly sharpened, and the meaning of Tariq's words was clearly that he was a little cub, which was a provocation at all.

"It's okay, Viscount Tariq. You also know that I come from a densely forested place in the western part of the Empire, and in that kind of forest, your worst fear is that the black bear has its paw on you, and it is a deadly threat. So you see, please pay more attention in the future, after all, our way to deal with the bear there is to chop off its claws directly! ”

Eugen still had a smile on his face, and his tone was very flat, but the content of the words made everyone who heard it tremble.

It was easy for the people around to hear what Eugen meant, that Tarik was a bear, and that he was going to chop off his claws. For the Saxons, such an offense was enough to make them draw their swords and look alike.

Viscount Tariq couldn't laugh anymore, he stared at Eugen deadly, and suddenly raised a hand and said: "Count Eugen, I really haven't heard of your customs there, I don't know if you can let me see it." ”

As he spoke, he put his hand on Eugen's shoulder again. The movements are slow, with a strong sense of oppression.

The two sides were already meeting on a narrow road at the moment, and Eugen knew that he must not back down. Once you shrink yourself, you will lose your prestige among all the nobles on the field, and if these people look down on you, it will be even more difficult to act in the future.

Tariq doesn't shrink back, he's here to find fault, that's his character. In the Lebor region, the Vetina family now has an absolute advantage, and the Saxon cavalry is unstoppable.

As a result, at this time, an Earl Eugen suddenly came, and Tariq, who was already in his early forties, naturally looked down on this young man, and in order not to let Eugen get in his way, he was ready to directly overwhelm Eugen.

Once Eugen lost his prestige among the nobility, he had a way to completely dilute Eugen's influence. At that time, even if there is one more lord in the Lebor region, it will only be a false name, and the real interests and power will still be in their hands.

Viscount Pigard on the side watched this scene with interest, he hated Tariq very much, but he would not come forward to help Eugen. In this case, if you can see Eugen's ability and bottom line, it will be more advantageous.

The old fox Bud was holding the right hand of a noble lady, with a kind and wise expression on his face, but his demeanor was that of a pervert in the truest sense of the word. However, in the emptiness of the conflict between Eugen and Tariq, his eyes suddenly lifted, squinting at the two people in the middle.

In the hall, the knives in the hands of several city guards standing guard had been quietly unsheathed. These elite soldiers had sworn to protect their lord, who is now Eugen. As soon as Eugen gives the order, Tarik will lose more than just his arm.

It's just that Tariq's personal strength is also very strong, and Eugen is so close to him that there is no guarantee that he will not be subdued by the other party.

A drop of sweat slid down Eugen's neck, and Tariq's hand was raised to Eugen's shoulder level, about to be placed on Eugen's shoulder.

Right now......

"Hahahaha, Brother Tariq, you're here too, I haven't seen you yet. Do you remember me, I'm your big brother. As he spoke, a hand reached out from the side and grabbed Tariq's palm, not letting it land on Eugen's shoulder.
