Chapter XVII: The Noble Academy

The Elamite Kingdom has a history of thousands of years, and there are countless nobles canonized, and a small viscount or even a baron will not be cared about at all.

It's just that Lu Bu's tall figure and handsome face have caused quite a stir, after all, there are not many people who are tall and handsome like him, generally speaking, they will associate tall and mighty, and he has to say that he is a minority of outliers, and Lu Bu is not talking about playing.

After Lu Bu came to the royal city, Edward began to work on points, and in order to be able to make the title a little higher, it was necessary to spend money. Lu Bu originally disdained to use such methods, but before he came, Chen Gong had some explanations, and when dealing with nobles, he handed them all over to Edward, and he had nothing to say about it, and now all he had to do was to see more and talk less and do less, but fortunately, he grabbed a lot of good things from the robbers, which was enough to take care of everything.

After three days, Lu Bu finally entered the palace and met the king, and in this world, it is not possible to kneel, he just performed an awkward aristocratic salute according to Edward's words, put his right hand on his left chest, and bowed slightly. Lu Bu didn't know what title he would be given at this time, and he had spent a lot of gold coins and some treasures, and he didn't know if it was worth it.

"You are the Lu Bu of the Lianke robber?" On the throne, the old king looked at Lu Bu's tall appearance, and couldn't help but admire: "Sure enough, it is tall and heroic, very extraordinary, the northwest province is located in a remote area, and robbers have been rampant, I didn't expect to be solved by you, the kingdom needs talents like you, after the unanimous decision of the Elders' House, I will give you the title of viscount, and I hope you will continue to serve the kingdom." ”

"Your Majesty! Lu Bu will definitely do his best to contribute his own strength to the kingdom. Lu Bu lowered his head and rolled his eyes, and could only continue: "If it's just a fief, can you let the minister choose to be in Erin Town? The bandits there are still rampant, and the minister wants to continue to sweep away the robbers there." ”

"Yes, as the new viscount of the kingdom, I will allow you. From now on, Erin Town will be the fief of Viscount Lu Bu within a radius of a hundred miles. The old king was still very reasonable, and then smiled: "However, Viscount Lu Bu must learn some aristocratic etiquette as soon as possible, you can learn enough etiquette in the noble academy, successfully graduate, and then return to the territory!"

Lu Bu couldn't help blinking, he didn't know that there was such a thing to do! Originally, Lu Bu thought that after coming to the royal capital to canonize the nobles, there would be basically nothing to do with him, but he didn't expect to enter any academy and learn what etiquette.

As soon as Lu Bu saw that the old king had canonized himself, he left surrounded by everyone, and he was left with only one of the huge palace halls, and placed in other nobles, or princes and ministers simply ignored him, and did not have a good face at all.

In fact, it is no wonder that Lu Bu is just a newly promoted little viscount, and the people who can come here to discuss matters are basically nobles above the earl, not to mention that under normal circumstances, there is also the House of Elders, and the power of the king is not as great as imagined, and it is often just a formality.

"Congratulations, Lord Viscount. Lu Bu had just left the palace gate, but he saw that the messenger who had summoned him and Edward were already waiting outside the door.

"Alas, Lord Envoy, why do I think that there seem to be a lot of people who don't like me to be a viscount?" Lu Feng shook his head first, then glanced at the envoy and said curiously: "Do you know what the situation of the Noble Academy is, why do you still want me to go to school?"

"Don't care, Lord Viscount, generally speaking, it is a consistent behavior of nobles to reject newcomers. The messenger smiled, and then said, "Lord Viscount, don't call me any more envoys." It's really embarrassing for the villain, just call me Al. ”

"Okay!Al! This is different from what we said!" Lu Fengxian nodded and said, "Now the hundred miles around Erin Town have become my territory, but there is one point, it has just been built, and I don't know when there will be robbers coming." ”

"Lord Viscount, this is also a matter of no choice, after all, the nobles have this procedure. Al shrugged his shoulders helplessly and said: "The Noble Academy is a student who trains the next generation of nobles for the kingdom, and basically the children of nobles from all over the world go to school in it, and they are the elite of the kingdom." And you are a new nobleman who knows nothing about the etiquette of the nobility and how to be a nobleman, only after the training of the aristocratic academy, only after you can graduate will you officially have the power of the nobility, and when the time comes, whether you want to go to the fief or stay in the royal city, there are not much rules. ”

Lu Bu opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything, the nobles of the kingdom will have their own fiefdoms, but not everyone will take office in their own territories, after all, some territories nominally belong to this nobleman, but they don't necessarily do it themselves. The reason why the nobles need the territory is that they can collect taxes from the territory, otherwise how can the nobles maintain their daily expenses?

To put it bluntly, the aristocracy is a group that wants to save face and suffer crimes, and some of the persecuted nobles can be said to be squeezed into this circle, but once they can become real members of the aristocratic circle, it is inevitable that they will soar, after all, a little information may change their lives in the future. Lu Bu is undoubtedly an aristocrat who has been excluded from the circle, and it is not easy to enter the circle of nobles, and some people are not even accepted after spending two or even three generations.

"My lord, this time the treasure we brought with us is basically used to make up for the lord. Edward couldn't help but smile and said: "However, the harvest is also huge, being able to make the lord a viscount is not only hereditary, but the most important thing is that your territory has more than doubled!"

"That's right! The baron's fiefdom is so big, what's the benefit?" Al couldn't help but nodded and said: "Lord Viscount is still at ease to study in the academy, I see that Lord Viscount has a lot of talents, just like this Mr. Edward, he can also help you with a lot of things! There are other people in the territory, you can rest assured, and I see that your territory has just been built, and it will take a lot of time to build, so don't worry." ”

"My lord, the noble academy is not only about learning etiquette, but also about magic and combat skills. Edward couldn't help but whisper to Lu Bu, "Aren't you very interested in magic and combat skills? This is a good opportunity that should not be missed, and it is an opportunity that no one else can ask for." ”

Lu Bu thought about it, so he didn't resist so much, to be honest, he was still very interested in the power system of this world, if he could figure out the magic and combat skills in the noble academy, it would not be in vain for him to enter the academy to study.
