Chapter XXXVII
There were already a large number of carriages parked in front of the gates of Earl Fair's majestic castle, and just looking at these richly decorated canopies, Huin knew that many noble people had been stationed in the castle, such as those who had come from the royal capital.
Captain Cassel led Baron Siuk to the castle, and his duty was completed, and he needed to return to the city gate to continue his guard.
After saying goodbye to the baron, Cassel did not forget to beckon Jack and Bill to come and have a few drinks with him before leaving.
Baron Schuck's two carriages looked very shabby beside the many richly decorated carriages, but he didn't seem to care, just let the coachman pick a corner and park them.
"Jack and Bill, you two are free to go, and I will contact you when Xiun and I are on our way back. "The Earl's castle is not enough to enter at the level of Jack and Bill, so Baron Schuck first let them rest elsewhere for the time being, and then added before parting, "Drink slowly when you drink with that Cassel, and you two old guys should also pay attention to their bodies!"
Huin noticed four heavily armed warriors standing in front of the gates of the Earl's Castle, two dressed in light armor, with a small round shield on their left arm and a long sword at their waist, the suits of standard Kingdom infantrymen.
The other person is also wearing a light helmet, a round shield and a long sword, but he has an extra longbow and quiver on his back; the last person is wearing heavy armor equipment, with a double-edged battle axe diagonally stuck in his back, and the tough guy aura of his body makes Xiu Yin feel that his weak body is indeed not suitable for being a warrior, if he faces such an opponent, can the small round shield block the attack of an axe......
It is the etiquette of this era that Xiu Yin followed his father's right hand diagonally behind him, and was one position slower than his father. If it is just an ordinary subordinate, at this time, it should follow the lord diagonally behind two or three positions, which is a sign of respect for the person who is a lord and also shows the prestige of the nobles.
The four guards in front of the castle had already seen the father and son of Xiuke and Xiuin, and when they approached, the four of them hurriedly stood upright, clenched their fists at Xiuke's right hand, stretched out their right arm, and then put their right fist to the position of their hearts, which was the military salute of the Starlight Kingdom.
"Welcome, Lord Baron!" all four shouted at once.
"Hmm. Shuk replied and stepped through the castle gates.
Following behind Shuk, Xiu found that his father's swaggering figure was still full of style.
Although the family is in decline, as a nobleman with a good family history, wearing a tunic and wearing a golden laurel crown symbolizing the position of a baron, Xiuke's body still exudes some momentum that is not angry and arrogant.
"So it's Schuke-sama here, welcome!"
As soon as I entered the gate of the castle, in front of the path lined with gardens on both sides, a voice greeted me.
"Lord Lynnkov!" Schuck smiled and shook hands with the man in front of him.
Lynnkov, Earl Fair's butler, was also the military staff of the Dominion of Haidel, although not a nobleman, but his status was extraordinary in the entire Dominion of Haidel.
"Ha, Young Master Xiuyin, your performance two months ago was really eye-catching, and I look forward to your wonderful performance this time. Lynnkov threw a smile at Xiuin.
"The manager has won the award, it's just a fluke. Xiuin smiled back, he always felt that Lynnkov was not as simple as he looked.
Lynkov withdrew his gaze from Xiu Yin and said to Xiu Ke, "Tomorrow at noon, a large open-air banquet will be held in the martial arts arena in the castle, and this time the event will last until the evening, so I also ask Master Xiu Ke to go and rest first, especially if Young Master Xiu Yin is going to recuperate." ”
Shuke said with a smile, "I'm tired of Your Excellency!"
"Gulis, take these two distinguished guests to the guest room to rest. ”
With Lynkov's greeting, on the other side of the garden path, a maid quickly walked over and bowed deeply to Shuk and Shuin, "Your Excellency, please follow me." ”
"Then Lord Shuke, we'll see you tomorrow......"
Looking at the back of the maid in front of him, Xiu suddenly remembered that Ianna was staying alone in the baron's mansion at this time, "It would be nice if I could take Ianna with me every time I came out." ”
The idea was good, but Xiu knew it wasn't realistic. In this world, especially in the aristocratic class, what is extremely valued is the so-called knightly glory and noble bloodline, if it is known that there is a young master in the Neumann family who mixes with the maid every day, it is estimated that Xiuke will immediately expel Xiu Yin from the mansion.
Of course, Xiuke took Iana as his own daughter, although Iana was not as golden as other noble daughters in the family, but neither Xiuke nor Xiuyin, or even Lin Ke had never treated her badly.
Because "his" memory is integrated into Xiuyin's memory, now Xiuyin himself has a special feeling for Ianna, and this feeling is definitely not friendship, so sometimes Xiuyin himself can't help but always want to touch Ianna, of course, if he doesn't touch it, Xiuyin is afraid that Ianna's side will think that he is different from before.
"Two adults, that's it. ”
After a labyrinth of corners of several corridors in the vast Earl's Palace, the maid stopped at the door of a guest room.
"If there's anything to shake the rattle in the room, my name is Gullis, and I'm happy to serve the two adults. Although Gulis, who has long hair, is still a little beautiful, Eiana in the eyes of Xiu Yin in a maid costume is even more exciting.
The rooms are large, with two separate bedrooms, well-equipped toilets and bathrooms, and plenty of luxuries, including the carpet in front of the coffee table made of the fur of priceless Komodo beasts.
"The earl's family background is really thick!" Seeing these furnishings in the room, Xiu Yin couldn't help but admire.
"These things are nothing more than things outside the body, cultivation causes, now your main energy must be focused on cultivating soul power, after having absolute power, you will look down on these things more. At this time, Shuk did not forget to admonish Xiu Yin.
"Yes, remember my father's teachings!" replied with a serious look on his face.
Xiu Yin's serious expression made Xiu Ke very satisfied, and Xiu Ke wanted to make up for Xiu Yin's childhood without careful care as much as possible, "Especially at tomorrow's big banquet, Xiu Yin, when the time comes, words and deeds must be appropriate, everything should be thought twice before acting, it is better to be slow than wrong!"
"Yes, if there is a repeat of the last rush game tomorrow, I think I'll get a really good place!" said Huin very firmly, his confidence coming from the small crossbow on his left arm, which was his trump card.
After a while in the room, Gulis knocked on the door of the room with a dining cart, "My lord, dinner has arrived." ”
A simple dinner for two, the food in the Earl of Fair's mansion turned out to be five dishes and two soups, very rich, very gorgeous, very luxurious, but after a few bites of food, Xiu found that these fish and meat were not as delicious as Ianna's baked fries.
