"In addition to blood, occupation and wealth are also one of the conditions for measuring the status of nobility"

- "The Nobles of the Continent", Pericles Setopia

"You!!" Perran's face turned red instantly, the second time, this was the second time that Leo had insulted him nakedly, of course, only he thought so......

Suppressing his anger, he turned his head to look at the Duke of Lancaster, "Your Excellency, forgive me for offending, does this mean your family?" For the sake of an outsider, I implore you to carefully consider what I have said, after all, it is ...... to be able to gain the friendship of His Highness"

"Enough, how do the Lancasters choose, it's not your turn to advise, Rolf's friendship? Perran, are you already dizzy, when did the great Lancaster family need to rely on betraying the women of the family to gain the so-called friendship of others? ”

Standing up, the disdain in the duke's tone could be heard even by the dull Pericles, as if standing opposite was not a viscount of the Empire, but a commoner who could be killed and taken at will

Stopping Antonis, who wanted to follow and mock, Auston leisurely shook the cup in his hand and interjected, "Perrin, you are just from an ordinary baronial family, I don't want to know what transactions have been made between you and the second prince, I just want to say, you with such inferior blood, what kind of courage makes you dare to stand here and question a duke?" ”

The two people who spoke in front of him were not existences that Perrin could easily offend, and when his face was full of anger and he was about to say something, Professor Pericles, who had been quiet, made up for the last stab, and he touched his nose and opened his mouth blankly

"Raymond...... Raymond, I remember, Edvar Raymond, the first head of the family, was born as a mason, and later joined the army, and in the war to pacify the northern barbarians, he was appreciated by His Majesty the Emperor of the present generation for massacring a large number of women and children in the tribe, and was given the status of nobility by exception, and finally made a baron......"

"Descendants of masons? God, you have insulted us, but your knowledge is truly astonishing, and I regret that I did not agree to give you a financial aid in the first place."

"Bastard!"

The professor's unintentional self-talk is the scar that Perrin would rather never be mentioned

It is because of this identity that he can't really integrate into the upper aristocratic circle in the entire empire, even if he himself is excellent, it is useless, and the traditional nobles do not recognize this kind of family without bloodline inheritance as an equal to them

Until he met Rolf, his handsome appearance and beautiful swordsmanship allowed Perrin to finally take the big ship of the second prince, of course, while the title was promoted, he also paid for his dignity as a man......

As if he had been stripped naked, Perrin could no longer tolerate it, and rushed towards Professor Pericles desperately with his head, this is because the Duke did not carry a sword, otherwise the long sword at this moment would have been unsheathed

It's a pity that Perrin looked at himself and ignored the other people in the room, and as soon as he took two steps, a strong figure stopped between him and the professor, and before Perrin had any time to react, Finn's heavy punch had already hit him in the abdomen......

The handsome face seemed to be torn, there was an abnormal distortion, subconsciously arched his body, and with the red dress, Pei Lan's whole person was like a prawn that had been steamed

Before his brain could recover from the sudden attack, Finn's hand knife had already sliced into his neck, and as soon as his eyes rolled, Perrin fell to the ground unconscious without making any sound......

At the same time, the Duke and Auston's guard knights had also drawn their long swords and pointed at Perrin on the carpet tightly, flicking their wrists, and Finn nodded to Leo, and returned to his place without saying a word, as if the previous electric scene had nothing to do with him

"Good, good! I can't remember how many years it has been since no one dared to be so disrespectful in front of me, and it seems that my kindness over the years has made many people forget what kind of existence the Lancaster family is," the bearded duke was frightened, and became like two people like the kind old man before

Glancing at the unconscious Perrin in disgust, the Duke yelled at the two knights of the clan who followed him

"Carry him back, throw me at the door of the Rolf box, and give the 'respected' highness a face, I won't kill his male pet! But...... The Raymonds must pay for this, and inform the head of the knights of the clan in my realm that the Lancastrian family's private army needs to be active! ”

After saying with a hideous face, the Duke looked at Auston, "Marquis, about this matter, after the auction is over later, I need your help, please come with me to meet Your Majesty, I want to ask him if even one of his son's dogs dares to insult the imperial nobles in front of him now!" ”

"Of course, as Your Majesty's Chief Administrator, my sense of justice makes me absolutely unable to ignore the fact that this kind of thing is happening, and Your Majesty must give your family an explanation," Auston said gracefully, smiling and bowing. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In a few casual conversations, several people have already decided the future of an imperial noble family, not to mention that if this matter is caused to His Majesty, in order to appease these great nobles, I am afraid that Rolf will also be punished to a certain extent

Sure enough, authority is the easiest thing to indulge in since ancient times, Leo sighed with his arms around Elena, and looked at Antonis with some amusement, he took advantage of the gap when his grandfather didn't have time to pay attention to him, sneaked to the unconscious Perran, stretched out his foot and stepped on the handsome face

From a distance, he could clearly see that the bridge of Perran's nose was a little crooked, and the nosebleed smeared his face like a clown......

After his knights carried Perrin out as ordered, the Duke pretended not to see the extra palm on his granddaughter's waist and shook his head at Leo, who was about to stop talking

"No need to explain, my friend, you did the right thing, it dawned on me from this bastard's offense just now, excessive forbearance can't change the attitude of the royal family towards us people, it's the right thing to do if you show strength occasionally, wait a few days, I'll work with that old guy from the Hohenzollern family to advance the verification of your identity by the House of Nobles......"

Taking a big gulp of the rest of the wine, the Duke looked at Leo very seriously

"In addition, when I finish dealing with some trivial matters, I will also return to my own territory and expand the power belonging to my family, if something really happens in the future...... While we support you, my allies and I must have your full help, whether by force or otherwise, can you promise that? ”

"Of course, even if the worst happens, the entire Northern Territory will be a force you can rely on, and you can trust my promise as much as you trust Elena"

Without any hesitation, Leo agreed with the same seriousness, and at this moment, he knew that what he had been expecting was only now clear, that a huge force would be his staunch ally for a long time, in any way

Leo also made a lot of efforts for this day, whether it was deliberately befriending Auston and Antonis at that time, or attending the Duke's banquet to lead the powerful knights to show their muscles, or showing their wealth through auctions, these foreshadowing finally had the best results

While the two were talking, Auston held his chin, and his brain was also thinking and judging the pros and cons rapidly, and for a long time, he looked at the Duke of Lancaster with a little doubt

"What's the worst thing you mean? Could it be that His Majesty really has the intention of re-electing Rolf? ”

Without replying, the Duke shook his head and then nodded, but this was enough for the politically minded Auston, and he bowed slightly to express his gratitude, and then spoke

"In this case, I will also find time to resign from the position of political officer to Your Majesty, I haven't returned to my territory for a long time, and I really have some worries, since I am not far from your territory, I still have to communicate with you in the future...... This is also for the Empire! ”

"Huh! Yes, everything for the Empire......"
