Lord Tron, Viscount Sebastian, cousin of the Marquis of Peyton, another member of the House of Hohenzollern in the Northern Realm, Earl Bar Hohenzollern, and all the other nobles, large and small......

After Leicester was promoted, they also received promotions in the order of succession, as well as additional fiefs of various sizes, and it is worth mentioning that after the elder Garin's son, Lord Tron, was officially promoted to baron

The lords of the northern territories no longer had this lowest title, and in Leo's vision, the lord would be given to good government officials and military personnel in the future, as titles with no real power or fiefdom, but only honorable and social status......

In addition to strictly fulfilling their obligations and obeying Leo, these nobles of the northern lords who have been promoted will also fly the banner of Leo next to their own banners on all castles and cities because of the birth of the Duchy

Of course, as part of the celebration, the Stormwind soldiers also received dividends, with most of the well-behaved Champion Swordsmen and Stormwing officers receiving a rank promotion, and ordinary soldiers receiving three times the usual salary as an encouragement

Originally, the Knights of Punishment and the Knights of the Dawn should also be commended for protecting the city and accompanying Leo to the imperial capital, but both the three of Finn and Aldaryan rejected all of Leo's suggestions

These men from Pande, who have been glorified all their lives, are not at all moved by anything other than following Leo......

After the official promotion and reward ceremony, Stormwind City, which had been noisy for a day, gradually quieted down, and it was just getting dark, and a grand banquet attended by all the nobles was held as scheduled

Halfway through the lively banquet, when the nobles in their drunken excitement were attracted by Antonis's story, the Duke of Lancaster and the Marquis of Hohenzollern, Marquis Auston, came to Leo together

The Duke smiled and raised his glass

"Leo~ Oh, from now on I must call you Your Highness, in order to celebrate your founding, we have a gift for you!"

"Ding"

The silver cup in his hand lightly touched a few people, and he looked at several allies with a smile, and Leo spoke

"Your Excellency the Duke, at any time, you and the Marquis, as well as Auston, can still call my name directly as before, it is just a title, and the relationship between us does not need to be too serious."

Nodding, the Duke didn't care about Leo's humility and continued

"That's your Highness, since the fief of the three of us is not far from the northern territory, and most of the nobles in the middle are also allies and vassals of our three families, in order to strengthen the cooperation and communication between us, the three of us have decided to ......"

Speaking of this, several people looked at each other and smiled, and Auston, who was most familiar with Leo, continued

"We have decided to give you as a gift the large land bordering the Principality in the north under the control of the family, with all the people and everything that lives on it, and the legally authenticated documents and title deeds are here."

With that, Auston pulled out a roll of papers from the sleeve of his wine-colored gown and handed it to Leo with both hands

……

Stunned, surprised, and in a short silence, these two feelings constantly filled Leo's mind, he thought a lot, even thought about whether it was a population or something, but the only thing he didn't expect was that the three allies could do this, so generously......

You must know that land, Leo passed by when he went to the imperial capital and parted with the Duke and others on the way back, aside from the vast area, due to its close proximity to the central part and the good climate, there are no less than 100,000 people living in that fast land, this gift is too big, so big that even Leo feels a little hot......

"This ...... I ......"

Standing up, Leo looked at the smiling Auston in front of him, stretched out and put down his hand, and after a few times, he finally took the fluttering scroll from the other party's hand, drank the red wine in the glass, wiped his mouth, and made a promise

"The needs of the Principality make it impossible for me to refuse this precious gift, and everything you have done today will surely be rewarded to your satisfaction in the future! Now, I can promise that from now on, all the goods sold out of the Northern Territory must first be traded in the territory of the three of them, all kinds of in-demand materials including spices and new crop seeds, and even weapons and armor can be supplied in unlimited quantities for several people, and finally, the Duchy will send instructors to train and guide several troops! ”

After thinking about it, Leo still spoke a little gloomily

"I'm sorry guys, but compared to your gifts in the snow, I can still give back too little, but ......"

"Yes, Your Highness, you don't need to say it, we will all understand that we are all looking forward to that day, and Lancaster, Hohenzollern, and Merovingians will be happy to follow in your footsteps!"

After all, he is older and much more mature, and seeing that Leo is about to say something inappropriate on such an occasion, the Marquis of Hohenzollern hurriedly interrupted, after all, it is better to say less before many things are done

"Well, besides, ...... your engagement banquet with my granddaughter Elena, Your Highness?"

"Oh of course, dear Lord Duke, I have been longing for that day all the time, but unfortunately in the imperial capital...... In this way, in accordance with your family's traditions and requirements, I will have everything ready, and in three months' time, in Stormwind City, in my newly built palace, I will confirm my relationship with Elena in the presence of everyone, do you have any different thoughts on this? ”

After finishing speaking, Leo also looked at the duke with some sneer, according to tradition, the engagement ceremony should be held in the woman's family, and the wedding was held in the man's family, but with Leo's current status, there are too many unsuitable aspects and troubles, so ......

"No problem, your current status is indeed not suitable, I completely agree with you, then all the main members of the Lancaster family will come to your city and palace to witness everything with everyone, this is my guarantee, Your Highness"

The Duke didn't think so, maybe he had thought about it before, in the era of family supremacy, being able to get Leo's unsparing support was more important than anything, and besides, this was not just a political marriage, after all, the relationship between the two was definitely hot......

After a few pleasantries with a few people, Leo put away the scroll representing the expensive gift closely, and in his excitement, he also took the scepter and tapped it on the table a few times, and waited until the banquet gradually quieted down and everyone's eyes were focused on him

He raised the huge silver cup in his hand and said loudly

"Dear friends, noble gentlemen and beautiful ladies, let us raise our glasses at this moment and drink the wine together, as a wish for the prosperity of the Principality of Pande, and for the prosperity of your family!"

In the loud response, everyone drank the wine with a frenzy, and it was at this time that in Leo's mind, the system's prompt voice suddenly came

“！ Remind the host that due to the birth of the new principality, and the recognition and support of more than 80% of the nobles, the hidden goal is completed, so the host can get an additional chance to draw a lottery, including but not limited to, from one of Pande's elite, ordinary, and inferior armies and knights, talents with specific abilities, various weapons and equipment, dragon tears, and native products......"
