140. Bang Xiang Randall
The award ceremony was held on an open-air avenue near the river in the city of Peon, which allowed the people to see these meritorious heroes from the periphery to the greatest extent.
In front of a hundred chairs there is a medal table, half of which is given to the recipients, and half is given to the nobles above the squire.
It was nearly afternoon, and I sat down on the field, watching the most powerful man in the territory come,
"His Royal Highness the Duke arrives ---。 ”
The voice of the person in charge of the ceremony was extremely long, and two carriages came out, and then someone spread a hundred-foot red carpet and asked the owner of the carriage to step on it.
Randall took Blanche by the arm and stepped out of the carriage first, and the two of them took a few steps later.
"Young master. ”
"Little lady.
Except for the two marquises, everyone stood up and saluted.
"No courtesy. Randall was led by the servant to the three new marquis of the kingdom.
"Marquis de Sandy"
"Marquis of Chocolate"
"Marquis of Qilin"
In this battle, Boni's three righteous brothers were promised to be made marquises.
The second child, Penny, was severely injured and is currently paralyzed and unable to get out of bed, so he did not show up.
The third Sahan was killed in battle, and after meeting Sahan's sons, Boni chose the son who looked weak, but was born to the main room, Chocolate, to become the marquis.
Pawney knew that Sahan was fond of the fourth son, Jensen, but Jansen was an illegitimate son, and Pawney hated illegitimate children, and he himself used to be very good to the two illegitimate brothers, but these two brothers, but later sent someone to assassinate Pawnie, wanting to get everything from him, since then, he has been extremely disgusted with illegitimate children, and several sword scars on his back always tell Pawney that only children born in the main room are eligible to inherit the throne.
Chocolate and Boni's fourth brother Sandy, as well as the Marquis of Qilin, who also belonged to the province of Dom like Penny, were present to greet him.
The province of Accor is already owned by Adolf, and since the territories of Chocolate and Sandi are in the province of Accor, they are now vassals of Boni, while Penny and Qilin are firmly on the side of Boni, and the province of Dom is also equivalent to semi-loyalty to Adolf.
With a total population of 1,100,000, the province of Accor with a population of 500,000, and the lands of Penny and Chirin, which now have a substantial control over a quarter of the kingdom's population, or even more so if you add friendly lords.
"You look a little thinner, take care of yourself. Sandy said, "The last time I saw that you were only ten years old, I married a wife in a blink of an eye, and the next time I see you, maybe your son will be knighted." ”
"I have brought a few ladies of the territory today, Your Royal Highness Princess, please take care of them. Qilin was also very polite.
"Lord Randall, long admiral. Chocolate squeezed Randall's hand hard.
Then Sandy kept talking, and without Randle interjecting, Blanche couldn't resist it, just kept smiling.
Qilin, who was waiting on the sidelines, waited for Sandy to say that he was addicted and said, "Lord Randall, the last time we met, it was at the national political meeting, but I didn't expect that this time we became allies." We'll have to communicate more in the future, and I'm ashamed that you and the Duke have laid down the city of Peon's governance so well. ”
"It's too polite, although your city of Tyre ranks third in Gaul, its taxes are not inferior to that of Peon, especially your craftsmen, who are highly skilled and produce handicrafts that are in high demand everywhere, and are worth learning from our city. Randall Road.
During a conversation with Qi Lin, Randall recited Qi Lin's nickname - "The Murderer of Relatives".
After Qi Lin didn't speak, "Long admiration, long admiration." Chocolate was extremely nervous, and kept repeating this sentence, he still felt like he was dreaming at this moment, so many sons of his father let himself be a person who could not recognize more than two hundred words to do "Marquis?!"
Supreme God, this is too showy.
.
After another moment, the scholar who was good at astrology in the territory informed Bony that it was the most opportune time.
Bonny appeared wearing a gold-blue crown and a majestic lion on his head, and after breaking the king's army, he asked the craftsmen to rush to work and transform the original pale gold marquis's crown.
After ascending the throne, Boni drew his jeweled sword, "From today, a new page will be opened for the Adolf family, and the gold lion icon will be passed on to the continent of Europe." ”
After Bony finished shouting, Ernst, the county bishop on the side, repeated it, and when he shouted, the sound of a long life clapping the mountains and the sea followed.
Randel stepped forward. ”
"In. Randall was helped up the stage slowly.
"You have meritorious service in this battle, you will be promoted to quasi-lord, rewarded with fifteen manors, a golden sword, and concurrently served as the minister of the territory. ”
Bonnie looked at this only son, full of relief, Randall is mature and sensible, and has special abilities, he can always come up with good things to help the territory, at this moment, the territory is the biggest and most glorious moment in the history of the family.
"Will you be able to do it later? Bonnie said softly.
"Don't worry, Dad, you're not in good health now, don't catch a cold, go down quickly. ”
"Over to you. ”
Before Boni stepped down, he shouted again, "God bless Adolf, God bless my people." With two sentences, the scene boiled, and then he left this place with Shandi and the nobles above the earl who came to watch the ceremony.
This stage became Randall's special show, and the fact that he was blind is now known to the kingdom, and there is nothing to hide.
"Young master, I will wear a crown for you. Ernst called the servant back, and carefully placed a crown that resembled the Bonny Crown, but not so many gems, on Randall's head.
Feeling that there were at least five hundred pairs of eyes in the audience looking at him, Randall precipitated for a while, "Don't mention nonsense, all the heroes present are heroes, and I think many people are waiting to get the land documents of the reward, and then go to the manor that can be passed on to their sons, or even their grandsons." ”
This made many people smile.
"Ernst, read the hero's name aloud. After Randall finished speaking, Ernst picked up a long list of bounties, in the territory, he, the bishop, also had to act as a ceremonial officer, and there were many miscellaneous things.
At the top of the list went to Homer von Landa, the head of the Interior Bureau, who received a small amount of money, only twenty gold coins, and not much land, and he himself refused the five hundred fiefdoms and gold coins that he had originally given, and only asked for a decent piece of water.
This practice was very pleasing to Boni, and the viscount title that was originally given to him was raised to the earl status to commend the hard work of the Landa family for generations.
It was a mess for the brigadier to issue the title of earl, but after the Adolf family became the Duke of Zijin, they also got permission to open a palace.
This model was learned from the Gallic kingdom of Siri, which was not succeeded to the throne by the same family for generations, but was jointly elected by eight dukes, and these eight ducal families were called "king electors" by the domestic people. ”
The seven families that did not choose the king, in their respective territories, will create their own courts, which are slightly inferior to the royal family, and in order to distinguish them, the officials are called differently.
King Siri, the chief official of "Dragon King-Ultraman" is called "Leader", and the chief courtiers of other king-electors are called "Bang Minister".
Randall is the prime minister of Grad, equivalent to the regent, he conferred the title in the past, the old minister who was entitled, he has long known and agreed to this matter, after all, the most important thing in the world is rumors, even if the royal army is defeated, but from time to time there is also the news that Randall has died of eye disease, which affects people's hearts, and at this moment he can improve his prestige and stop the rumors.
"Congratulations, the first earl of the Adolf family, we can't give too many fiefs at the moment, but in the future, our army will lay down a territory ten times larger than it is now, such a large territory, waiting for you to help govern. Randall whispered as he gave the paperwork.
"Thank you, young master, the Landa family will be broken to pieces to repay the Duke and you. ”
Homer was excited in his heart, his old face was calm, he refused to reward this time, but retreated as advance, on the one hand, he felt that he did not have much selfishness, on the other hand, he wanted a few cronies to get more appointments, as for Pawney to give him the title of earl, it was unexpected.
Homer's later rewardees, Boniti who followed the expedition, followed the Commodore Qinan II, and the Brigadier Warlord Siyi III, who was also the Brigadier of the War.
Both men attended in military uniforms, and Qi Nanwei, with ruddy faces, strode onto the stage after being called by Bishop Ernst.
"Dear. ”
"It's not hard, there is a duke in charge, and we are just stained. ”
"Qinan-von Conger!"
"In. ”
"You are the chief of staff of this expedition, and you are the first to kill the enemy, and you will be given seventy gold coins, one hundred silver coins, six horses, four hundred and fifty feudal fiefs, and you will be promoted to viscount. ”
"Young Master Xie. ”
"Give your estate, or your birthplace Dockshire (now Finland), run it well. ”
"Yes. ”
Both Randall and Boni have an idea, that is, to merge the intertwined territories into a complete land, most of them are taken back in their hands, over the years, the territory has flourished in commerce, and the rewards given to the vassals are mostly coins or jewels, and even dry shares of business profits, but this time the territory has expanded a lot, and it is unreasonable not to give some fiefs.
Qinan loves land, so the two fathers and sons decided to be bold this time and give him a large amount of fiefdoms.
Qi Nan finally raised the status of the family before he was sixty years old, and he stepped down with a smile on his face, and met the eyes of Xi Yi, who was made up with him.
Joy made him pat Xi Yi, who had been unpleasant for a long time, on the shoulder, "Congratulations." ”
"You too. "Xiyi Dao, this is sincere, the two of them don't have any competitive thoughts at the moment.
"Siyi-von-Jon, you behaved decently as his southern lieutenant, and in the Armageddon, your subordinates killed the most enemies, and the eldest son Terry was loyally killed...... , the family martial arts can be an example, give you forty gold coins, twenty silk horses, fifteen catties of tea, twelve pairs of armor, four hundred fiefdoms, and a viscount. ”
