090 Silver Horse Charlie

Before Randall sat an old man, his name was Charlie, who looked neither kind nor majestic, and the years were so merciless that he had silver hair, sunken eyes, wrinkled face, and a little hunched when he walked, and was dressed in a very ordinary black burlap.

It is difficult for Randall to imagine the scene in front of him that more than forty years ago he was called - "the first beautiful man in North Gaul", "the lover of a noblewoman".

Charles wore a fur hat embroidered with a silver horse, the silver horse carried yellow and clear gold on its back, since ancient times in northern Gaul, it is believed that the horse is the most industrious animal in the world, can not only plough the land, but also transport, war, so there are many people who use horses as family coats, while in the southern regions the horse is regarded as a close companion of human beings, and there are almost no aristocratic families with horses as their coat of arms.

Charlie's family motto - "The diligent is with God", and in his generation, he added another one, "diligence equals gold", and changed half of the books representing wisdom on the horses to gold.

"Ahem. Charlie said that he was about to spit without three words, and in less than half an hour of talking, the spittoon on the ground had accumulated a layer.

"I'm old, I'm going to die, I'm broken. Charlie laughed at himself.

"Everyone dies. Randall said, "Your willingness to come is the best sincerity, and Adolf will not break his word." ”

"Last time, I was on the wrong team, and I was almost torn up by Poni, so don't let me down this time. Pawney can rest assured that all the government affairs will be handed over to you who are blind, and you will go out to fight in person, which shows your ability, alas, you are all about the same age, and that kid in my family is much worse than you. ”

"I heard he's married again?"

"A year ago, his wife, who was six years older than him, died in childbirth, and this boy and her cousin, the two of them secretly tasted the forbidden fruit, and as a result, they had a little life, and his father was not happy, and always wanted to catch a better daughter-in-law, so I decided to let them marry after the war. ”

"In my current situation, it is not convenient for me to travel far, but I will send someone to give me a big gift. Randall Road.

"No, you can send me a good cemetery, or convert it into gold, my territory is not as rich as your city of Peon. ”

"It's too modest, it's late today, and tomorrow I'll let you show you around the city of Peon. ”

Charlie immediately said, "What is there to see in the castle built of stone, Lao Tzu traveled from south to north, rode a horse slower than a turtle, drank wine slower than urine, and went to a woman like a pig, I have never seen any wonders in the world, just take me to your grandfather's cemetery." ”

"I heard that you and my grandfather are sworn brothers, and you are good at using swords, and you are known as a double swordsman?"

"Wrong, it's the Gallic Three Musketeers. "The hero is happy to mention the courage of the year, Charlie said, "More than sixty years ago, I studied with your grandfather in the royal capital, when he was the biggest, and he liked to find people to fight, and "Tairi" was not convinced. The old man stopped suddenly, he didn't know if Randall knew this man.

"I know that you are talking about the heir of the third king Harley, the father of the fourth king Vino, the brother of the fifth king Patton, and the uncle of the sixth king Adrian, who was supposed to be the fourth king, but died of typhoid fever at the age of twenty, leaving behind a widowed son who succeeded his grandfather Halley to the throne of the fourth king at a few years old, but he did not live past the age of seventeen, and the throne was the turn of the first king Patton.

"You know the royal family tree very well", the old man continued, "Tairi is a good man, there is no bad temper of the royal nobles, that is, the personality must be strong, once the two of them had to test their courage, agreed to jump from a height, as a result, Tairi jumped five meters, your grandfather jumped six meters, broke his legs, almost became lame, I was twelve years old at that time, your grandfather was thirteen years old, and Tairi was eleven and a half years old.

At that time, as soon as I finished the class, I hunted and swam with your grandfather and Tairi, rode horses and practiced swords, thinking that I would become famous in the future, when the Gallic kingdom was not so strong, and often had to go on expeditions, and every noble heir could fight well, like today's nobles.

I still remember that on my thirteenth birthday, I had a coming-of-age ceremony, and your grandfather took me to the largest restaurant in the royal capital to have fun.

The next day we went east with the army to the kingdom of Saxony, and six months after my seventeenth birthday, four and a half years were spent in the army, and now I think of those years, it was so bitter, and I don't want to go back to that time no matter how many gold coins I give. ”

"And no matter how many gold coins you give, you don't sell this memory, do you? Randall added.

"Haha, yes, then we won, this battle is now known to every French person in the Eastern Campaign, Gaul has replaced Saxony, become the regional hegemon, the day the treaty was signed, set on the banks of the Dunsner River in the present-day Vosges Province, I and your grandfather and Thailand and Japan were present at the scene to watch the appointment, Thailand and Japan are the surrendered officials, I hold the article, your grandfather takes the seal, the night before the three of us also made a move, the article secretly added a sum, and asked for one-fifth of the land in the current Vosges Province. ”

Charlie is like a treasure, talking about the glory of the past.

Randall felt that the old man's complexion in front of him was better, just now it was a candle that was about to be extinguished, it would be extinguished by the wind at any time, and the light was very weak, and at this moment, if the lampshade was covered, after the protection was strengthened, the light was a little bigger,

"The Treaty of Dunsnar was drafted by the three of you, and it wasn't the handiwork of the Third King?"

"This kid is filial, and all the credit goes to his father. Charlie spat out another mouthful of old yellow phlegm.

"After the treaty was signed, I returned to my country with honor, and women from eight to eighty years of age loved me, sent me love letters, threw me into their arms, and even came to fight, and later, when I got tired of these days, I married a woman and settled down. It's a pity that she had a bad life, only lived to be thirty years old, after her death, I looked down on the affairs of men and women, concentrated on managing the territory, and later dug out the gold veins and became the great lord, after the death of the eldest elder of the royal family, Duke Congas, I became the fourth auxiliary minister with your grandfather, assisting the fourth king ......, who was ten years old at the time.

The more Charlie talked, Randall couldn't interrupt.

“...... Later, your grandfather became more and more arrogant as he got older, he had to take care of everything, and he was unreasonable in everything, Baron Meiya and Baron Taosha really loved each other, he wanted to take care of it, and he also used "bad morals" to beat the two of them five times, and ordered the two to never meet, and the last person in the trouble committed suicide, and one went crazy. ”

"Do they have a marriage?" Randall couldn't help but interject.

"They are all celibate, and each of them has no marriage contract. ”

"This matter of men and women is the most difficult to sort out from ancient times to the present, and the same baron is also considered a good person, why should my grandfather be a villain in vain?"

"Because they are both men. ”

"This!"

Randall heard this for the first time, and he didn't know what to say.

"I also persuaded him, I said that the nobles served the king well and paid taxes, even if they fulfilled their obligations, other bird affairs, his, but he didn't listen, in the third year of the auxiliary government, he began to dictatorship, I have no opinion, but the other two can't stand it, in the state council jointly engage your grandfather, and also got the Holy See decree, forcing your grandfather to hand over the auxiliary position and return to the territory.

At that time, the Holy See could still speak two or three words in Gaul, and your grandfather, seeing the many opponents, agreed to launch a purge the next day, and expelled the eight nobles who led the matter from Gaul, including two auxiliaries, and the country became a hall of speech. ”

The more Randall listened, the more fascinated he became, the grandfather in Charlie's mouth had the power to move Gaul! Grandfather-Berbardona interfered with his younger brother Yiwen and appointed his daughter as the heir, which caused the division of the territory, which greatly reduced the strength of the Adolf family, and revitalized the family after Bony took over, so Randall didn't care about the story of this grandfather before, and only regarded him as a failed lord.

"The young Fourth King has no opinion?"

"Until you were eight years old, he called your grandfather "godfather". ”

"I read the information of the fourth king in the royal library, why didn't I mention it, and my father didn't say it?"

"It's called in private, and few people know it, and my name is Uncle Pretty Man. Referring to his appearance, Charlie digressed for a while before replying, "After saying the same, your grandfather began to carry out reforms and suppress the church. Now that the clerical power in the country is so low, your grandfather has to take the first credit, and your grandfather has done a lot of reforms, some successes, some failures, and the merits are about seventy-three open, and he has great enthusiasm for conquering the land, and the auxiliary government began to wage war in the fifth year.

Until two years later, the seventeen-year-old fourth king died, he launched a total of four wars, but only advanced a little land, labored the people and lost money, and then the self-proclaimed Sun King Patton came to power, and your grandfather disagreed, plus the domestic aristocracy that could not be suppressed, your grandfather was forced to step down from the auxiliary government, a few years later it will be the war of your kind, this matter is needless to say, you should know better than me. ”
