193 And the king is used to deceive and deceive
Ciri sent an obvious signal on his side, and Lenardo on the other side immediately understood!
That's right, just go according to the plan. On the side www.biquge.info of the royal capital, Ricker has his own plan, and the Camellia Chamber of Commerce is also brewing his own plan in Zhenxi City. On Ciri and Leinardo's side, of course, there are also plans that have been discussed in advance!
Unfortunately, Zigra IX knew nothing about these plans, and made a downward motion with the front of his palm. "Okay guys, let's go back and get ready. I'll leave it here, as long as one of them can be the first to attack Canter and pass the city of Earldom, and afterwards the knight will be promoted to baron, and the lifelong system will be changed to a hereditary system. The baron was promoted to the viscount, the viscount, I will directly reward him with that territory! ”
The voice almost stopped after a very long time.
Originally, Zigra IX thought that these words would attract a thunderous applause, but except for the few nobles who really had nothing to do with themselves, most of them didn't even let out a fart!
Zigra is face immediately pulled down: "What's the matter?" Seeing the titles and exploits in hand, do you all think that your titles are enough? ”
There was no sound, but suddenly a voice floated from the crowd. "Your Majesty, if you distribute the credit like this, I'm afraid I won't be convinced!"
"What ......"
Zigra IX, with a face as long as a donkey. To be honest, he hasn't been comfortable since the Marquis of Pompeit fought off the orcs! A pair of eyes swept around where to provoke a few times, and finally, it finally fell on a tall, thin horse-faced nobleman.
"Am I being unfairly distributed? Count Valente, I don't take you well on weekdays? If I am unfair, then how can the largest gold mine in the kingdom be counted, is it fair to take back your territory and divide it among others? ”
The horse-faced Count of Valente crossed the crowd and fell to one knee directly in front of Zigra IX. "Your Majesty, your brilliance is like the sun, shining on me all the time, and my admiration for you is like the great river in the north of Zhenxiling! It is like a great river flowing downstream, and it is out of control (30,000 words omitted here)...... But Your Majesty, I don't know if you still remember, who was the first to rush to the east of the city of Betnes and block the peak of the orc army many times? Twenty days ago, who was the first to cover your retreat into the castle when the walls were captured? ”
Zigra IX's face softened. That's right, in the previous battles, this Count of Valente was also one of the few nobles who really played with his life. He wants to promote Carl, on the one hand, ignoring the feelings of these people is also a big trouble.
"Of course I remember your exploits, Valente, and in this way, just as the lord of your southeastern viscounty was killed in battle, I will give you that land. As for his son, you can just give him a town so that he doesn't starve to death. ”
With a faint remark to Valente, who was kneeling on the ground, Zigra IX turned his gaze to the other nobles. "Ladies and gentlemen, what about the territory, it's so fast, since you say that I handled it unfairly, then you say, how should this territory of the Duchy of Kante be divided?"
Big guy, look at me, I'll look at you, all of them don't speak. These bastards, in addition to eating, drinking, and scraping the ground, are certainly not completely brainless. This question is not easy to answer, if you are biased to one side, you will offend the other side, one is not good, and both sides are not pleased!
"Your Majesty, I have an idea." A muscular Leonardo? Bent spoke. "Your Majesty, since everyone disagrees, why don't you use the fairest military feats? It's okay to transfer the territory, or expand the domestic territory, so that everyone has no opinion? ”
"Good! Since everyone agrees, then the military industry shall prevail! But I still say the same thing, the first nobleman to capture the enemy's earl's residence must take credit. ”
Zigra IX's face was a little strange again.
"Lenaldo, I remember Baron Seeri was your subordinate, right? In order to benefit your subordinates, you really spare no effort! ”
As a king, of course, he didn't care about military merits, but he knew that Ciri's merits were great. Strictly speaking, he didn't hate Ciri, and besides, there were many people around him who kept saying nice things in his ear. But there is one thing, he still does not believe that this commoner nobleman with no roots can bring him any benefits.
It's not nice to say, the nobles below the earl are all cannon fodder in his eyes! That Carl is also cannon fodder, the difference is that Carl feels more obedient to him, and it is easier to cultivate him as a loyal lackey. As for Ciri, he didn't want to give him another promotion.
"Fight for your subordinates? Where does this begin? Lenardo was surprised. I admit that Lord Siri owes a lot of money. Whether it is 300 people who defeat 7,000 people, the Earl of Xicheng in the original town of Yuanyuan, or when he follows me to attack Smoke Crystal Town, he is a meritorious person. But on the side of Betnes City, how many battles has he fought? To be promoted to a viscount, the credit is enough, but it only takes a few months to change from a commoner to a viscount, this ...... If you want me to see, let's take it slowly. The promotion is too fast, and it is not conducive to the growth of Lord Xirui! ”
"Hmm...... Reasonable! ”
Zigra IX rejoiced. For him, a nobleman who can't be cannon fodder and can't kick away with one kick is better to keep his original title forever! However, he is also willing to use people who can't kick away but are willing to play with their lives, even if he knows that this is just a temporary use.
"Lord Lenardo, I heard that you have killed several sons in this war?"
"Yes, out of six sons, only one remains. This is a trivial matter, a while ago, in order to collect food for the army, I deceived many people in the territory to come here. But my territory ...... I'm afraid that in the fall, I will take my wives to the neighbor's house to beg for food! ”
"Yes." Zigra IX couldn't help but shed a few crocodile tears. "Say, what reward do you want? I remember the lords of the lords around you, either the old lords are still alive, or the new lords are also fighting with the army, it's really not good, how can I transfer this Pete territory to you......"
"Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Your Majesty! Decay, decay, decay, decay! ”
Holding the hand of Zigra IX, Leonardo gnawed like an arched old sow! The other nobles, one by one, were so disgusted by him that they were about to vomit, but they didn't say anything to refute it, first of all, Lenardo was very generous these days. Secondly, they really didn't have as many adult sons as Lenaldo. As for Zigra IX, anyway, it was already tacit norm for the nobles to join forces to deceive the king. If you pierce this layer of window paper, you will only be isolated by others, even the king's side, and you will not gain any benefits. (To be continued.) )
