Chapter 577: Manor (9000 Supplements)

Tucker Mountains. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The forest on both sides is dense, and a path winds its way through the shade of the trees, and butterflies fly through the green grass.

Wu Ming rode on a tall horse, sitting with Beatrice in his arms, quietly watching this scene, with a sense of peace.

After walking through the forest, there were scattered ridges on the side of the road, and the peasants on them stopped their work and looked at the two nobles with some astonishment.

After all, just from their clothes and expressions, let the farmers know that there are big people here, and they don't look like young masters and young ladies from aristocratic families.

"I'm going to Knight Kasro's house, which of you will show me the way?!"

Wu Ming asked in a raised voice.

"Young man, tell me what you mean!"

An old farmer stood up, holding a sickle, his hands were calloused, his eyes were quite sharp, and his physique was very large, he must have been trained to be a soldier.

"I'm here to visit Knight Kasro's widow and daughter!"

Wu Ming said directly.

The archbishop of the church was right, the Earl of the Blue Mountains had indeed run out of the Knight's Oil, and the lord to whom Wu Ming had been loyal had unfortunately told him that if he wanted to perform a knight's baptism, he would have to wait until at least this winter, unless he was willing to accept a gift from the Church or Viscount Garcia.

Obviously, Wu Ming immediately refused, and was ready to come to his own territory to seal it.

This time, the Earl of Blue Mountain was very happy to let him go, and also issued him a certificate, of course, in the entire Fengying Plain, there are basically not many territories that can be divided.

But Wu Ming was very lucky, his lord, the Earl of Blue Mountain, had just suffered a defeat and killed several knights, so he vacated a few manors.

This is also the reason why the Earl of Blue Mountain can promise to give the champion of the tournament canonization.

Although he is a great nobleman, he is also constrained by the nobles under his command, and if he really talks about the courage of reform, he will lose to Garcia, an outsider.

"You want to see Madame?"

The old farmer's hands trembled, and his body even began to tremble slightly, and his face was filled with fear.

"Come on, old Jof will take you where you want to go!"

He took a deep breath and said slowly, giving the young man behind him another look.

The young farmer did not move, but a child holding a thatch beside him was stunned, quickly threw off his farm implement, and ran away without a trace.

"Let's go!"

Wu Ming didn't seem to see his small movements at all, and said directly.

Joff put down his scythe, took out another straw, held it in his mouth, and led the way cheerfully.

He first took Wu Ming to a fruit grove, which was full of apple trees with lush foliage, which presumably turned into a beautiful sea of flowers during the flowering season of April and May.

Beneath the orchard is a cemetery, with a large number of names engraved on white marble, mounds of commoners, and several burial chambers built of marble, like the tombs of nobles.

'We are from the Tucker mountain people, we fight for freedom!' ’

At the entrance to the cemetery, there is also a line of such inscriptions.

"Tucker Hillmen?"

Wu Ming smiled.

"Not bad...... Our ancestors were a bunch of savages, and we have the blood of savages in our veins, and we will fight back against all brutality! ”

Old Qiaofu looked at Wu Ming fearlessly.

'What a clever old fellow, have you guessed anything...... It's a pity, what's the use? ’

Wu Ming said: "I don't care about your offense and deception, but before dark, I must see the wife of Knight Carlos!" ”

Joff froze, knowing that his plan to delay time had been seen through.

After all, he is still a lord, even if he has been a mercenary for a while and has a little knowledge, but he still doesn't dare to do anything to a nobleman.

Anyway, he had already taken the other party around in a big circle, and the plan had been achieved, so he immediately smiled, revealing his scorched yellow teeth with pitch black: "Of course, our lady is a kind and benevolent person, and she is very hospitable!" ”

This time, Jof didn't play any more tricks, but Wu Ming also arrived at Knight Carlos's mansion when it was almost dark.

With the knight's financial resources, he could not afford to build a castle, so the family lived in a large wooden villa.

Oak floors, rosewood steps and windowsills, brocade curtains, red roofs, all of them gave Beatrice a nostalgic look in her eyes.

In front of the villa, several apprehensive women were already waiting.

"Guests from afar, I'm the local host, Amelia, tell me what you mean!"

The widow of this Knight of Carlos looked to be about thirty years old, fair-skinned, tall and tall, and was a rare big beauty.

Behind her, there were two other girls, one who looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, and the other who was even younger, both dressed in lady's clothes, and looked at the stranger with curious eyes.

Wu Ming touched his nose, and finally knew what Baron Terry's inexplicable smile and jealousy meant.

"My name is William! William Wallace! Canonized by Lord Count Blue Mountain, he will become the new lord of Karos Lord! ”

Although there is a feeling of bullying orphans and widows, Wu Ming will not give up what he has gotten and said directly.

As soon as he said this, he saw the lady's body tremble, and when he showed the certificate of canonization with the seal and signature of the Count of Blue Mountain, Amelia's face became even paler.

"No!"

She screamed, causing the two loli behind her to tremble and grasp the hem of her skirt.

"It's not in accordance with the law! I'm going to appeal to the other nobles! The Earl of Blue Mountain has broken the sacred covenant of the nobles, and his appointment is null and void! ”

"I'm sorry!"

Wu Ming's voice was cold, and before he came, he had already prepared: "Knight Carlos died honorably in battle, but he did not leave any male descendants, not even a single relative who was close by blood and could inherit the title, in the case of losing the heir and not being able to fulfill his duty of allegiance to the lord, it is reasonable and legal for the lord to take back the fief!" ”

"Gods, let the dragons take you away!"

Lady Amelia's face was full of despair, two lines of crystal tears flowed, and she held her two daughters and wept silently.

She knew that her husband's everything would be taken away from hers, that the young man in front of her would live in her mansion, dictating to the realm, and that if things got any worse, she and her daughter would be driven out of the territory, starving and facing the malice of the whole world.

"It's getting late, won't Madame entertain us for dinner?"

Seeing Beatrice tugging at her cuffs with an unbearable face, Wu Ming could only say helplessly.

Lady Amelia was a strong woman, and after sobbing, she finally stood up and saluted Wu Ming with the corner of her skirt: "Kind lord, I hope you can give me and my poor two daughters a little time!" ”

It seemed that there were only two people who saw Wu Ming and Beatrice, and there was a little strange spark in her eyes.

"This is natural!"

Wu Ming deafly deaf himself and Beatrice entered the villa and had dinner with the hostess, who seemed to be preoccupied.

……

"Master!"

Late at night, Beatrice, who was in the same room with Wu Ming, said, "That lady ......"

"I know...... Rest early, there's an interesting scene tomorrow! ”

The other party's choice is really few, Wu Ming has already seen through everything, and said in a wise tone.

The next morning, breakfast consisted of browned omelets and two pieces of baked bread.

While Wu Ming was dining in an elegant posture, Amelia came to the hall with her two daughters, who were obviously dressed up, regained her confidence and charm, and said her conditions: "You can inherit my husband's territory, but you must marry one of my daughters!" ”

Apparently, after a night of deliberation, Lady Amelia, who had few choices, found her way to preserve.

"My lord! Hope we can make you satisfied! ”

The two lolis, one big and one small, blushed, but still lifted the hem of their skirts and saluted Wu Ming, causing Beatrice next to her to swallow a big mouthful of milk dissatisfied.

"What if...... I don't want to, or ......"

Wu Ming had a strange smile on his face: "I fell in love with you, Madame?" ”

"Nine layers of hell!" Lady Amelia's face turned bloody: "I knew you were a shameless bastard, but this is still my territory, you can only choose according to my requirements!" ”

In her heart, she lamented that if she planted this cause today, she will reap bitter fruits in the future.

Even if the other party made a choice under her compulsion, when the next day comes, after mastering the territory, I am afraid that he will still retaliate back.

But instead of revenge in the future, she still had to drink this cup of honey wine that treasured poison.

"Oh? Is it just the people out there? ”

Wu Ming put the last piece of egg cake into his mouth, wiped his mouth with a white cloth, and then grabbed his long sword and opened the door of the villa.

Outside, in the small square, there were already a number of peasants standing in dense numbers, with pitchforks and sickles in their hands, led by Joff and the butler, whom they had met the previous day, staring nervously at him.

"You ......"

Wu Ming's voice was amplified: "What do you want to do?" Against your lords? Do you know that alone that I can hang you all! ”

In this era, there was a gulf between the nobles and the commoners, and it was a capital offense for a commoner to insult a nobleman, and if a nobleman killed a subject in his domain, he had to give a reason, and if the subject belonged to another nobleman, he had to make monetary compensation, which was stipulated by law!

Therefore, as soon as his words came out, several peasants took a step back with uneasy faces.

"Don't be afraid, he's just bluffing!"

The old butler roared hard, and in no moments he was smashed to the ground with a punch from a whizzing figure, the bridge of his nose broken, and the blood flowed.

Shout!

A sword shadow flashed, Jof's hands were in severe pain, the long sword in his hand was broken in two, looking at the rest of the farmers who fell to the ground, as well as the arrogant and swift figure, a thought emerged, and he couldn't help but blurt out: "Knight!" ”
