Chapter 124 is designated as a knight
Arthur returned to his lodgings, politely declined Gawain's request to send someone to escort him, and took a deep breath as he watched the van drift away. Strength is always the only measure of strength.
"Master, why did you bring back so many people, is there a need?" said Shalene, standing in the doorway.
There were five women from the Spirit Fox Clan standing beside Arthur, and he also carried a woman back on his shoulder, all of whom were beautiful and graceful, and even Sha Lin was a little overwhelmed.
Is this looking for a maid or looking for a warm bed?
"Of course it is, and more will be needed in the future. ”
Arthur pointed to the carriage next to him and asked who was at home, and Charlene understood. "The King's ministers and the Earl of Ridge said they had brought the Emperor's orders. ”
"You and Lilith take them to change their clothes, this woman is handed over to Morgan, she naturally knows what to do, I will go meet them, don't bother us. ”
"Yes. Charlene saluted.
Arthur straightened his clothes, entered the room through the side door, and went to the hall to meet the two adults who had been waiting for a long time.
"Sorry for being late. ”
"Why did you come back so late, do you know how long we waited?"
Earl Ridge said displeasedly, and introduced the Secretary of State to Arthur, who had been waiting for him for a long time. "Earl of New Delhi, the King's Minister of the Interior, I have come to discuss with you today the question of the Limhi Territory. ”
"Baron, you're finally back. ”
New Delhi got up and shook Arthur's hand, smiling. He is on the thin side, looks very energetic, and always smiles with an aristocratic ability and elegant maturity, which makes it difficult to underestimate him, and belongs to the kind of person who is shrewd but not annoying.
After the three of them sat down, Arthur was worried, after all, Lin Hai's territory was a hot potato, and it was a very irresponsible practice to throw it to Falin privately, but there was really no way at that time, he killed the demon general desperately, destroyed the altar and finally had to share the cake with others, he was unwilling.
It's been days since the news came back, and Adamant sent someone over, but the final outcome is not yet known.
Arthur stole a glance at Earl Strange, hoping that he could give some hints, but the old earl didn't even look at him, much to Arthur's slight disappointment.
"Good news and bad news for the Baron, you want to hear that first?" asked the Earl of New Delhi.
"Okay. Arthur raised his glass and smiled.
"Congratulations on becoming an earl, the title of 'Aromatic' bestowed upon you by the King himself. New Delhi said elegantly.
A mouthful of black tea stuck in Arthur's throat, he took a handkerchief from the table and coughed dryly. Oh my God, this is a dream!!
From a baron to a viscount to an earl, it took him a few months to span hundreds of years, and the war was indeed a shortcut to the throne quickly.
"Don't get excited, Falin has no territory for you, just a palace title. Rich reminded.
Arthur said indifferently. "I think it's nice to have a knighthood to bluff people. ”
"There is also a bad one, which is about the Linhai territory. New Delhi reminded.
"What is the king's plan?" Arthur knew that this question was inevitable.
"Your Majesty's recent illness has been very unstable, Lin Hai was originally beaten down by you, and the king intended to hand it over to you, but the ministers thought that it should be handed over to the members of the royal family as a fief for future assignments. You also know that it is the domain of a principality. ”
Arthur was silent for a moment, without any change in his face, not even any displeasure.
"Well, I think that makes sense. But can I know which princess or prince the king intends to give the land?"
New Derry and Richie glanced at each other, this was supposed to be a kingdom secret and should not be revealed to Arthur, and both of them were embarrassed. But if you don't say it, it will definitely cause Arthur's unhappiness and hide the diaphragm.
An honorary earl title, in exchange for a duchy territory, no one will accept it generously.
"Arthur, you should have some Sealand roses at home, it looks very monotonous at home. New Delhi, let's go to the king's fate, and then go for a drink. Richie patted New Delhi on the shoulder and motioned for him to leave.
"I'm sending two adults. Arthur said.
Richie waved his hand. "Arthur, you are now the Earl of Aroma. Don't do anything too out of the ordinary in the future, the king appreciates your ability and loyalty. ”
"I know, Uncle Richie. ”
After the two adults left, Arthur collapsed on the sofa with his eyes closed, and a figure suddenly appeared behind him.
"You accept this unfair compromise?"
"Otherwise, what can I do, I can't say it's unfair, the territory is given to others, and it is still of great benefit to me. ”
Morgan frowned puzzled. "Why?"
"The pressure is lost to the royal family, Lin Hai has little to do with me, Yadman is an excellent king, if he is not sick, it is really a little difficult for me to make waves in Falin, and the identity of the son of Yalin has given me great convenience. It is for these reasons that I am on the side of the king and will be unconditionally trusted. ”
"So far, I have only shown goodwill to Princess Andrea, and the third prince has only met once, and the eldest prince has not yet taken clear action, thinking that the power in his hand has faintly touched the king's taboo. ”
"If Lin Hai gave it to another eldest princess or three princes, I would be furious, but if it was given to Sissi, that piece of land would not be much different from mine. ”
After a pause, Arthur got up and looked at Morgan.
"By the way, take me to see the shadow elf. ”
Morgan recited a spell and the two appeared in her palace, Sana had long since woken up but was languid, her wounds had healed, and she was now tied to a chair.
Morgan's cat and Arthur's dog are meticulously guarded on both sides like guards.
"She forced me to sign the contract, did you ask anything?"
"Yes, but can I kill her?"
Arthur glanced at Morgan in surprise, "Why?
"Do you know who she is?"
"Who? I just know she hates me. ”
"She was one of the assassins who hunted you down last time, didn't you say that there was a person who used special powers and was captured by the Church? ”
Arthur nodded slightly, so that was what happened.
"You asked about that organization?"
"No, she knows too little, she should have just joined, but they want to grab the Holy Sword and Dragon Soul for sure. ”
Arthur thought for a moment and glanced at Morgan.
"How about washing her memory? Give her a way out, maybe she's a sign in my underwear store, and by the way, she can also seduce some enemies out. ”
Morgan snorted coldly and looked at Morgan shamelessly.
"I don't have any opinion, but she will recover sooner or later, don't die in bed. ”
Arthur's old face flushed, "Don't don't, my great cause has not been accomplished, how can I waste my youth." ”
