Went home. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Home is a warm harbor, Desmond has mountains full of blooming clover, free cattle and sheep, hard-working bees, smooth roads, soft beds, clean and spacious bathrooms, and a rustic and loyal people.

But there are also people who are looking forward to the return of their loved ones.

What can I do?

Count Tang turned his head and looked at the soldiers who were also excited about returning home, 1,300 people with high morale and full of hope, and when they came back, although their morale was also high, there were only more than 900 people.

This means that there will be more than 300 families in this most festive month of the Son's birth...... The family is ruined!

If it is in another place, the most important labor force in the family is missing, and the wife alone cannot support the children in the family, and there is absolutely no mistake in saying that the family is ruined. But this is Desmond, and the Earl of Don has already set a compensation for the fallen soldiers from the beginning, so even if the man dies, the woman with the child can live well.

However, some things cannot be made up for with money, although money can be called omnipotent, but money can only buy care, but not family affection.

And it's not just Desmond's soldiers, but also at the end of the Second Battle of Dehebas, Knight Wade once promised to give an account to every soldier who died on the battlefield. Although it is said that Count Don can be excused, this is nothing more than the self-determination of Wade Knight...... But he wouldn't really do that.

It was not just a matter of attitude, but from a utilitarian point of view, it would have spread the reputation of Count Don Jr. for his kindness and generosity. In such an era in the Middle Ages, due to the inconvenience of news dissemination, many nobles could only rely on hearsay to distinguish between good and bad people, and a person with excellent reputation...... It will be much more popular than a tyrant anyway.

The premise is that the Earl of Don Jr. really wants to be King of Ireland.

Having said that, although the war is over, it does not mean that the Irish coalition is automatically disbanded. Earl Don Jr. is still the leader of the Southern Ireland Alliance, as for the Northern Ireland Alliance, because the Earl of Connor is dead, and the three Earls of the Northern Earls Alliance have no intention of competing with Duke Ed, so Duke Ed got his wish.

But due to the awkward positioning of the Northern Ireland coalition, and they are still defeated, no one will think that this is such a comfortable position, and it is almost like having a thorn under the buttocks, trembling all day long.

"If the Earl of Donchester were to attack me now, how would I defend him?"

This problem has become a big problem for Duke Eddard, even if he is still drunk and faint every day in Dehebas, he has to face this problem. Perhaps, the reason why he is reluctant to come back is also a factor, in Dehebas can still be drunk and dreamy not to think about this problem, but once he returns to Bizheforne, he has to face reality.

But to be honest, Count Don is not interested in taking care of Duke Eddard for the time being, and Duke Eddard's current worries are really a bit groundless.

"This aunt, your husband died heroically for the country, he fought very bravely, and everyone can see it. His sacrifice is a great loss to the country and to the individual, and in the face of such a warrior, we have no way to save his life, so we can only remember, sacrifice, and send some insignificant condolences to express our hearts......"

This is a family of serfs belonging to the farm of the Earl of Little Tang, because of the increase in grain production, even serfs can eat, and the man's salary is enough to support the whole family, the life was prosperous, but suddenly, the sky fell.

After five or six days of tears, the wife has already begun to think about the future of life, the eldest son has the ability to work and can barely work in the field, although the daughter is not very old, but she can also get married, can have a bite to eat, the only thing to worry about is the youngest son who is not yet four years old......

It was at this time that Count Tang came to the door to deliver warmth.

In fact, this is not the first time that Count Xiao Tang has sent warmth, if you remove the time to prepare condolences before, Count Xiao Tang has already walked through nearly forty families in five days, soothing their wounded hearts.

At this rate, it will not be possible to complete all the bereaved families of martyrs in a month, but in the whole of December, the month of the birth of the Holy Son, Count Xiao Tang has nothing to do, and doing this kind of meaningful thing can also increase the unity and cohesion of the people in the territory, so why not do it?

Moreover, every time he saw the tears shed by these humble people, it would remind him to stop being proud and to always remember every decision he made, for which someone would be sacrificed.

"This ...... Big big big adult...... I, no, slave, slave very ...... Welcome to the arrival of the lord, fluffy and shining, fluffy and shining! ”

The peasant woman was obviously frightened, the lord personally came to the door or something, for a peasant woman who had never been out of the house for a hundred miles, and regarded the steward of the farm as a god, it was like the Jade Emperor personally went down to earth to accompany a most ordinary beggar, fortunately, she had studied seriously at the village's 'collective teaching conference' before, otherwise she would not be able to say a complete sentence now.

"You...... Alas! ”

Count Tang sighed, he had seen a lot of such scenes, every time he came down to talk to the families of the martyrs, most of them would be this reaction, so he already had a set of measures to deal with it.

"Your husband is a hero! Heroes, do you understand? ”

Count Xiao Tang asked, the peasant woman still understood the word hero, and seeing the peasant woman nodding, the little Count Tang continued: "In the previous war, your husband did not run away at the most critical moment, he fought bravely to the end, and brought us victory, so not only you, but also your children, can hold their heads high and say that your husband died for Desmond and for all the others."

Words alone are not enough, and looking at the woman in front of her who half-understands and half-understands, these words are blind. Count Tang sighed secretly again, no matter what, his heart was fulfilled. I came here and visited in person, the steward of this manor did not dare to bully the orphans and widows, you know, sometimes the emperor is far away, and the county officials are not as good as the current management!

"It's a little bit of my heart, and it's not a big deal, far less than your husband's sacrifice, but it's enough to help you through this difficult time."

"Your Lordship...... This, how does this make ......"

The peasant woman tugged at her clothes and said in a panic, there is enough stimulation for her today, not to mention that the lord will visit her personally, and will give her gifts, such a thing, even if it is hundreds of years ago, who has done this?

However, the moment she saw the gift, the peasant woman could not say no.

Because what the little Count Don gave her was her husband's first year's pension.

Don't think that this is Count Xiao Tang's bad intentions, in fact, if it wasn't for Count Xiao Tang personally sending it down, the peasant woman could get one-tenth of this pension in the end, which would have been considered her luck.

Money can be channeled, and there is never a shortage of such things as embezzlement and corruption for money, abduction, murder, and extortion of goods, no matter which place or dynasty.

Moreover, Count Xiao Tang also exchanged large gold coins for small silver coins, which were convenient for poor families like peasant women, and no one cared about this kind of share.

"These are just the first year's share, every year after that, until twenty years later, you can get so much money and things, if there are fewer things or less money in any year, you can come to me, and I will make those who are corrupt look good......"

Count Xiao Tang said, looking at the manor steward who was already wiping cold sweat next to him, and the steward almost knelt down when he saw Count Xiao Tang looking at him like this.

"In short, today is just a visit, and a month later on the Epiphany, Philip 'Saints' will hold a large Mass, praying that the souls of these heroes will go to heaven, and I will have someone come to pick you up when the time comes."

"Thank you...... Thank you...... Thank you, Lord! ”

By the end of the day, the peasant woman was almost unable to cry, which was not a tear of sorrow, but a tear of joy. With such a good lord, and a husband who goes to heaven to enjoy happiness, the life of children in the future will not be a problem, and his family will not collapse, is there anything more fortunate than this?

Seeing the peasant woman's cry like this, Count Tang felt even more uncomfortable in his heart, obviously the soldiers were all dying for his selfish desires, but now they ...... Alas, Count Don shook his head, threw all these thoughts out again, and walked out of the peasant woman's cramped house.

"Why do you bother, Lord Count?"

The knight of Olcoba came again to persuade that, in his opinion, it was not a matter of course for the peasants to sacrifice for their lords? Why bother! Why would the Earl do such a degrading thing!

"You don't understand, Knights of Olcoba, they died for me, then this is my duty and my obligation."

Count Xiao Tang shook his head, got on his horse, looked at the condolences that were still piled up in front of him with two carriages, took a deep breath and said, "Let's go, we're going to the next one."

“…… Yes, Lord Count. ”
