Chapter 68: Returning Home (Overhaul)

"I hear the sound of the waves slowly hitting and never tire of the waves, Angry Wave City, you great city standing on the cliffs of the sea, my hometown of dreams, I have returned, I left here with shame in the past, and today I return with honor. ”

Julian looked out at the misty city of Raging Waves, and sighed arrogantly.

"Barr, there are a lot of eyes around us watching us, staring at you and me. ”

Hearing this, Barr looked around vigilantly and protected Julian behind him, "Your Excellency is in danger?"

Among Julian's subordinates, Edgar adheres to the way of loyalty, but his temperament is too upright, too conformist, too pedantic, and Julian's temperament is to the left, although Edgar is very good, but it is really difficult to use it, there are too many constraints, and many things are difficult to be entrusted to him; Sebas is the most excellent, he can do things easily, he never needs to worry Julian, but his actions and thoughts are elusive, although Julian does not want to admit it, but he has a trace of distrust and fear of Sebas in his heart; and Baal, who was born in the grass, is a complete reckless man, except for serving as a guard on weekdays and charging on the battlefield, the rest of the ability is limited, neither can read and hyphenate to assist Julian in handling government affairs, and his dull head can't give advice to Julian, but it is such a mediocre Barr, but Yurian is the most trusted, without him, he can be described as foolish and loyal to Julian, never asking why, even if Julian is unreasonable requirements, he will do his best to rack his brains to carry out.

If Julian ordered his ministers to commit suicide, Barr would have immediately drawn his sword and killed himself without complaint, while Edgar would ask why, even if the reason was too absurd, Edgar would accept it, he only needed a reason, and then, in order not to damage the prestige of the lord, he would return to the mansion and break up with the crowd and wipe his neck alone, while Sebas, who would only take off his head, let the dense blood gush all over the ground, and then put his head back on his neck, and asked casually: Master, is it okay?

Julian smiled, "Don't worry, how dare a mouse compete with an eagle. These rats would only hide in the dim, damp cellars, creaking and whispering in dark corners, using futile tricks and tricks to discredit me and break my will, to make me stumble and sink, and then secretly laugh, but how did they know that even if I fell, I would fall above them. ”

Julian, when he walked to the city of angry waves, he was so humble and prudent that he even had to bow down and listen to the admonition in order to win the support of Bérilang, but why he was so gloomy, arrogant, and empty-eyed now was because behind him, Count of Slonia, Berilland Mogg, Earl of Eton, and Douglas, Earl of Mecklenburg, stood behind him. Heslett and many other nobles, a total of eight counts in the south, now the count of Noamon has been defeated, only seven people remain, if you add yourself then Julian has won the support of more than half of the nobles in the south, for him, there is no reason to lose, and the evidence in the court is conclusive, the plan is seamless and perfect, this is a war that cannot be lost. With the dawn of victory, the layers of fog shrouded in the situation gradually dissipated, and he once again revealed his unruly temperament, uninhibited words and deeds.

The Duchess of McCarvey stood at the head of the city, looking forward to her son who had been away from home for a long time, and her joy could not be suppressed, although she had already heard that Julian had not simply returned to visit her, but to go to the noble court to stand trial, but even so? Rebellious, but the love of mother and son is far greater than the complicated conflicts of interest in the world, and in the Duchess's view, as Julian grows into adulthood, the vast land beneath his feet will sooner or later become his crown, and he is a worldly shepherd with the power to reward and punish all the people of the south, including the arrogant nobles.

Although Julian's assassination was most likely the result of a farce directed and staged by the heir, there is no evidence and no evidence, but so what? In the eyes of the mother, isn't the child's oath the best testimony in court? The Count of Noamon deserves to be deprived of his title and sent to the gallows.

"Julian, my child. The Duchess burst into tears with joy.

"Mom. ”

The Duchess kissed Julian on the cheek in full view of everyone, staring into his clear eyes, "You've grown up and are taller than your mother." You were a kid before you left Raging Waves three years ago, and now you have the demeanor of your father. ”

"Mom. Julian said shyly, "Then you don't want to be my child there." ”

Julian heard the sneer of the nobles behind him, and the roots of his ears turned red.

"In your mother's eyes, you've always been a child. The Duchess said with a smile.

The Duchess stepped over Julian's shoulder and looked out, "What about your sister?"

"Is Rosalind still in Azuchi?"

"This kid is really stubborn, only in this way like your father. I've spoken to your father, and I've canceled her engagement to Derek from Earl Washtam's house, so let her come back sooner. ”

Julian couldn't help but pout, but he hoped that Rosalind would marry as soon as possible, "Is this okay? Count Justin may not be happy." "The marriage contract has been signed, and now the unilateral cancellation is tantamount to humiliation to the nobles who value honor.

Duchess McCarvey said domineeringly: "It's just a little nobleman." I'm afraid I've wronged Rosa. ”

The powerful nobleman Wastan family in the western realm fell into the mouth of the duchess, but it was just a small nobleman with an inflinct name, and those who had the confidence to say such things were probably only the royal family of the empire and the four duke families.

"Lord Derek is a talented, handsome, and a good choice for a son-in-law, is it too reckless to abolish the engagement?

"If your sister hears this, she will have to fix you. The Duchess teased.

"Mariana. Berryron's grim face rarely brought a smile to his sister when he met him.

"Bérilang, you're here too. ”

"What's the Duke's reaction?" asked Berryron urgently.

"Victor is a little upset, you know his character. ”

Thunder and rain are Jun's, how can everyone easily speculate about Duke McCarvey's thoughts?
