Chapter 10: A Visitor to the National Capital
In Xiao Wen's study in the castle, an old man in his sixties was standing at this time, and the old man was standing in front of Qinghuo with his head bowed at this time.
Although the old man in front of Qinghuo was dressed as a steward, he was very elegantly dressed, and the whole person looked like a neat and neat expression, and although the old man looked a little old, the whole person looked very capable.
This old man was none other than Xiao Wen's former chief steward in the imperial capital, Casio.
In the past, when Xiao Wen and others were in the imperial capital, all the big and small things in the courtyard, including the housekeeper Kade and the maids who followed Xiao Wen to Senmu Town, were all under Casio's responsibility, and even if someone in the courtyard made a mistake, Casio had the right to punish them.
In fact, in every aristocratic family in the imperial capital, there are basically such stewards around them.
They are the most trusted people of the nobles, helping the nobles manage the affairs of the family, assisting the nobles in running various industries, taking care of the lives of the nobles' children, and also dealing with some shady things for the nobles, of course, they are not alone, but a group of people, and they are not responsible for different things.
For example, Casio is one of the main housekeepers of the Chauvin family, Casio began to follow Chauvin's father Alleyne when he was young: Marquis of Cassadine, and now Casio is more than sixty Shun!.
And when Xiao Wen just crossed over, he was suspected by Casio, but fortunately, Xiao Wen had just experienced an accident at that time, so Casio thought that Xiao Wen's personality had changed because of that change, so he slowly dispelled his doubts.
Casio was also extremely happy to see Xiao Wen at this moment, he had taken care of Xiao Wen and others for more than ten years, and he had already treated Xiao Wen and others as if they were his own relatives.
And during the few months that Xiao Wen was in the imperial capital, Casio took care of Xiao Wen very well, so Xiao Wen also felt very kind to the old man Casio.
Casio, during the time I've been away from the Imperial Capital, have I ever discovered something big in the Imperial Capital? For the current Xiao Wen, whether there is anything big in the imperial capital or not is the most important.
There are two things in the imperial capital of the second young master, first, some time ago, the Marquis of Samar of the principality personally came to the door and proposed to the lord that the two families were married.
The protagonist of the marriage is your eldest brother, Aika: the youngest daughter of Cassadine and the Marquis of Samar.
So it won't be long before the Marquis of Samar may marry his favorite youngest daughter to the eldest young master.
Casio Road.
The Marquis of Samar in his mouth refers to a marquis who also has a lot of power in the Duchy of Emma, and his power is no less than that of Chauvin's father.
And the eldest young master refers to the eldest brother of Xiao Wen, the first heir of the Cassadine family, Aika: Cassadine.
When it comes to the eldest brother Aika: Cassadine, Xiao Wen's mind can't help but have a special pride, and he has never looked at his youth with a straight eye, but at that time, he really did not have the qualifications to make Aika pay attention.
To know Aika
Among the younger generation of the entire principality, the ability and strength are at the top, as can be seen from the fact that a marquis is ready to marry his favorite daughter to Aika.
You must know that the Marquis of Samar is very fond of his little daughter, almost what he wants!, but now he is ready to marry him to Aika, the purpose of which may have the factor of winning over the Cassadine family, but I believe that it is more interested in Aika: Cassadine's talent.
And the second thing, and the main reason why the old lady asked me to come this time, is that the Kara Empire has finally decided to carry out a winter hunt for our Principality of Emma.
Because the new emperor of the Kara Empire has just put down the civil strife, he needs a victorious foreign war to strengthen his throne.
At the same time, because of the civil strife in the Kara Empire in the past few years, the domestic economy and population have suffered heavy losses, prices are high, and villages and towns in the civil strife areas are empty, so the new emperor of the Kara Empire, Kara X, decided to launch a winter hunt against our Principality of Emma, which has been stopped for many years, hoping to grab some people and money and food to go back to make up for the losses of the civil strife in the Kara Empire.
Therefore, the old lady specially asked me to come over to inform you, so that if you can't do it, you can return to the imperial capital with me.
The Marquis and his wife also did not expect that the Kara Empire would settle domestic affairs so quickly and begin to declare war on our Principality of Emma.
Xiao Wen nodded, and then inquired about his mother and the affairs in the family.
Back to the second young master, everything is fine with the madam, but since the young master you left the imperial capital, sometimes the lady will miss you a little, and she has quarreled with the master several times because of your affairs.
At the same time, when the old slave came to visit you this time, the lady not only asked the old slave to bring 30,000 gold coins and 5,000 catties of grain, but also asked the old slave to bring a few words to the third young master.
Mother asked you what to say, Chauvin asked.
Back to the young master, Mrs. asked me to tell you that in the next war, your safety is the first priority, if you can't go home, if there is anything, she will bear it with the master.
And the gold coins and food I brought this time are also my wife's own money, and have nothing to do with the family. So young master, you can use it with confidence.
Hmmm!, I see.
When you go back, tell my mother, that I'm all right here, and that she can rest assured.
I think you've seen it on the way here, and everything is going well in my territory right now.
So when you go back, be sure to tell my mother to tell her to pay more attention to her body, pay attention to her health, and at the same time reassure her.
Yes, young master, I will definitely tell Madame about these things.
Well, Casio, go down and rest first.
It was the young master and the old slave who said goodbye first, and I hope you will take good care of yourself.
Hmmm!, go for it.
Be.
