Rick's eyes rolled, and suddenly such a fact appeared, as if there was no way to change it, so he had to change his strategy and said carefully: "Your Majesty, I just said that handing over the loot was just a joke, didn't Your Majesty say that this is my settling-in fee?" ’

There was a hint of helplessness in the queen's eyes, after all, when she met someone like Rick, the queen had no way at all, but the expression on her face did not change much, and she said lightly: "I said before, these ill-gotten wealth and power are better in your hands than in the hands of those foolish and loyal sect members and unscrupulous people. ’

'That's good, that's good!' Rick was glad that he had not lost his gold coins, and said excitedly: "Then I will go back to the house immediately, let all the work in the house stop, and go with me to the Shenfeng Fortress to join the army." ’

'No need! The queen said lightly..' "My edict only asks you to go to the Shenfeng Fortress to join the army, and does not include the people around you, so you just need to go back honestly and hand over everything." That assistant of yours, Su Qiong, who is now in charge of palace guard affairs, left me behind, as well as the renovation of the old mansion of the Tao family, all as usual, and all the things in your house are carried out as usual, don't change too much, I want to let the people know that I am not a ruthless person, and when you return to Boyent from the fortress in half a year, you will still be an earl, still have your mansion, and still have the position of the commander of your palace guard. ’

So Rick finally changed color, speechless, if he could only go alone, it would be even more sad than killing Rick, Su Qiong was still easy to do, think about not being able to take Chrissy with him, think about not having Yulu and Phoenix by his side, think about not having the heron Caifeng and the four phoenixes to protect him, and think about Ao Ling'er without the strange elves...... Rick suddenly felt that life was full of gloom.

'No, Your Majesty, I can't accept it, you might as well kill me. I can't accept such an arrangement! Rick suddenly fell to his knees and said in a sullen voice, "If Your Majesty must arrange your subordinates in this way, then your subordinates will only die." ’

The queen smiled slightly, picked up another edict from the table, and read: "Because of Xiahua? Count Peimeng has made a contribution to eradicating the Tianluo Sect stronghold in Boyant City, and is now given the title of Xia Hua? The incense city and the surrounding land fifty miles outside the fortress of the first count of Peimeng are the fiefs of the earl. and authorized to take over in the course of this military service. ’

As soon as he heard that there was a reward, Rick hurriedly stood up, looked at it carefully, and said, "It turns out that His Majesty is scaring me, so I should be able to bring those attendants in my house with me this time, right?" ’

'Squire? There was a gleam in the Queen's eyes. He said with a strange expression, "I think you want to take all the women around you, right?" Rick smiled embarrassedly, not as ashamed that his thoughts had been exposed, and then he heard the queen continue: "Don't say I didn't warn you, if you take all the people away, I'm afraid that your Earl's Court and that titular sister-in-law, including the old peach house you just built, will have problems." You know, you have far more enemies than friends now. ’

Rick's eyes darkened, and then he asked carefully, "So, Your Majesty, what should I do?" ’

The queen had already helped him think of a way, and said lightly: "Actually, it's very simple, you only need to take a small number of people with you to the Shenfeng Fortress, and I will let the palace guards take care of you here." But you have to leave some strength for defense, and you know, I don't have a lot of people on my hands who can use it. ’

Rick breathed a sigh of relief, at least the situation was much better than just now, so he beat the snake and said, "Your Majesty, I want to bring an idle general with me from the military headquarters." Please also ask Your Majesty to agree! ’

The queen gave Rick a strange look, and said for a while, "Yes, I will give you another three hundred soldiers." Now that you have a general to over, let him be in charge of the deployment! If nothing else. Step aside. ’

Rick suddenly felt that today's queen was too easy to talk to, so he asked with some concern: "Your Majesty, I want to know how big my fief is?" That, that Xiangcheng, sounds good, and it's very close to the Divine Seal Fortress. ’

The queen obviously showed a hint of deceit in her eyes, and said very casually, "Xiangcheng is indeed good, I heard that every spring, when the ice and snow outside the Shenfeng Fortress completely melt, Xiangcheng will be full of a small purple flower called Ziyue, although the flower is small, but the fragrance is pleasant, and it can even make the whole city permeated with the fragrance of this flower......

Rick suddenly interrupted the queen's words and said excitedly, "I didn't expect His Majesty to give me such a good territory, I will definitely not live up to His Majesty's favor and govern Xiangcheng properly." ’

'Very well,' said the queen without paying any attention to Rick's interruption, "then be it, you go back and pack up, and leave early tomorrow morning, I don't want to see you on the festival of the gods, because on the festival of the gods, I want the maid to read my edict, and the edict includes the content of the edict for you, and I don't want others to think that I am a person who just talks and does not do." ’

Rick didn't expect the queen to chase away the guest so easily, as if he hadn't heard, and continued to ask, "Your Majesty hasn't said how big my territory is?" How big is the land around Xiangcheng? ’

The treacherous look in the queen's eyes resurfaced, and she still said very casually, "I don't know how big it is, but it's big anyway, basically, I can reward you with the land north of the Divine Seal Fortress." ’

Rick suddenly became excited, and said happily, "Really? All the lands north of the Etherea are given to me? ’

The queen finally smiled and said very seriously: "Yes, they are all awarded to you." ’

'There is no basis ......for talking,' Rick glanced at the queen, as if he was afraid that the queen would regret it, and although he was a little unfluent, he said very firmly: "Please give me an edict." ’

After another half an hour, Rick left the palace satisfied, and was very proud of this harvest, after all, he not only kept the safety of the booty, but also got the fief, and all he paid was to leave Bo Yingte and go to the Shenfeng Fortress to serve in the army for six months, such a money-making business, why not? So Rick happily rushed to and from home, even thinking about who he was going to take with him to the Divine Seal Fortress.

On the other side, when Rick left the study, Concubine Ji Xue, who had been hiding in the room, suddenly appeared and asked with a smile: "Your Majesty, is it really okay like this?" When the Earl learns the truth, I am afraid that he will go back to Boyent to find trouble with His Majesty, after all, he is such a person. ’

The queen smiled reluctantly a little helplessly, and then said, "I don't know very well, maybe he can bring us new surprises. After a pause, the queen looked a little tired, and said lazily: 'Let it be so, what will happen to him is not on my mind.' ’

Concubine Ji Xue left the room, closed the door, and muttered, "Is it really not in consideration?" Even the title is different, Majesty, when will you be able to face yourself? ’

Rick returned home in high spirits, and seeing his excited state, the women all gathered around, and Rick was just thinking about the arrangement, so he had a family meeting, which was the first time in any case.

As soon as the people were together, Rick immediately began to pretend to be pitiful, and said depressedly: "Alas, this time I am in trouble, I have been appointed by Her Majesty the Queen. ’

'How so?' The heron asked worriedly.

Rick grinned and said, "Actually, don't worry, although you are equipped with the army, you only need to stay in the Divine Seal Fortress for half a year, and you can come back after half a year!" ’

'Divine Fortress? Although Chrissy had heard such a term after coming out of the Ten Thousand Year Crystal, she was not very clear after all, so she said with some doubts in her words, "Where is the Divine Fortress?" It sounds like a castle. ’

'The Divine Fortress is a fortress built by the empire a hundred years ago, in order to resist the continuous invasion of the four northern countries, a few decades ago, in order to enter the hinterland of the Blue Moon Empire, the four northern countries have been fighting continuously against the Divine Fortress, but unfortunately they all failed, and the Divine Fortress has also become one of the four major fortresses in the world. In recent decades, the four northern countries have been trying to bypass the Divine Seal Fortress and enter the hinterland of the Blue Moon Empire in a roundabout way, but unfortunately they have not succeeded, and most of the accidents of the internal violence in the Blue Moon Empire a while ago are also related to this. Whether it was the rebellion in Jiamu County, the change of ownership of Fenghua City, the attack on Silk City, or the shock in Blue City, they were more or less related to the existence of the Shenfeng Fortress. It was Su Qiong who was talking.

'Why did Childe go to the Divine Seal Fortress for so long? Shall we all go over? Yulu suddenly asked, Yulu, who had just met Huang Quanyi, had an intuition that the matter of the Tianluo Sect had just begun, and there would be more troubles to come.

'I also want you to go with me, but unfortunately Your Majesty doesn't allow it!' Rick said pitifully, "The queen said that the Permon Mansion has just been rebuilt, and it can't be stopped like this, and the old peach house is also being cleaned and renovated, and no one is there to affect the city's appearance, and the most important thing is ......

'I guess the queen just wants you to go to the Divine Seal Fortress alone, right?' Alva said leisurely.

'yes,' Rick said to Alva with a salivating face, "My phoenix is amazing, you can guess it!" The most important thing is that I can't take so many people to a place where war may break out at any time, there are too many things to take care of at home, I can't just leave, and besides, so many people in Boyent don't like me now, if I take a large number of people away, it will definitely be too dangerous to stay, so I decided to ......

'Wait, you haven't said why the queen is going to the Divine Fortress with you?' Chrissy asked the most crucial question.
