Chapter 193: Conditions

Grant's threat is no joke, in the north, Hampshire has enough influence that even Ellespool dare not take lightly.

"Grant, buying and selling territory is a legitimate transaction under the law, and you don't want to get to the king's ears if you stop it, do you?" Leon thought about the difficulties of coming to Runetown.

"King, do you know the king well?" Grant scoffed, Leon was relegated to a bitter cold remote town as a member of the royal family, although it was just luck to find a vein, and many other news proved that Leon had a bad relationship with the royal family, and now he mentioned the name of the king, which was nothing more than a scare.

"You can try. Leon said with a smile on his face and in a defiant tone.

He is not just a verbal scare, in the kingdom of Xueman, violations of the law are not recognized, although he has a bad relationship with the royal family, but this does not prevent the royal family from correcting its mistakes.

"Are you provoking me?" asked Gran, Hampshire was not afraid of Ravenwood.

"I'm just talking about the territory, but you've been messing with the process. ”

"Okay, I won't hinder you from acquiring the territory, and you can weigh the rest yourself. Grant left the table angrily, the last trick of persecution had been exhausted, and it was useless to stay.

Watching Grant walk away, Posie said, "Lord Leon, let's talk about the conditions now." ”

Leon then understood why Posie was not in a hurry, she didn't want to deal with Hampshire, and drove Grant away with her own hands, and the rest became a simple territory transaction.

"All I need is 10,000 gold coins. Posey gave a price, and instead of going up, it went down.

"But?" Leon is not a fool, there will definitely be conditions attached at this time, and Posie can use Ravenwood against Hampshire, so naturally he will not lose money in the trade.

"I need a letter. "Posie has a deceptively simple condition.

"Content?" He was very curious, how much could a letter be worth a few thousand gold coins?

"Letter to Count David of the City of Oslo. Posie's condition surprised him.

Count David may not know who he is referring to, but there is only one count of Oslo, and that is Leon's maternal grandfather, and Oslo is the seat of his mother's family.

Count David is his maternal grandfather, but Leon is so old that he has only seen him two or three times in the royal capital, because he is under house arrest in the royal capital, he has no chance to go out to visit relatives, and the relationship between the two parties is not as close as imagined.

"What does the acquisition of the territory have to do with the city of Oslo?" Leon did not know that there was a connection between the two, and Posie could settle in any city with the money, including the city of Oslo, and it was completely unnecessary to write to the local count.

"It's not about territory, it's about my family. Posie raised her glass and explained why.

Her family is in the city of Oslo, her father is a baron under the county of David, ten years ago because he offended the earl, he was removed from the title and became an ordinary family, the family is getting worse, even with her support, the family still can't rise.

This time she can get a large sum of money from selling her territory, which can make the family live a prosperous life, but without a title to become an ordinary person, this is not what she wants, nor is it what the family wants, and restoring nobility becomes the primary goal.

When Leon sent the letter, Posey refused at first, if she sold the territory, she would become an ordinary rich person, and when her daughter grew up, she could not marry another nobleman because of her status, so the family and nobility became more and more distant.

However, after learning of Leon's relationship with Count David, she has a plan to use this relationship to restore the family title.

"Mrs. Posie, your condition is a bit difficult. Leon looked embarrassed and did not dare to agree easily.

Although he seems to have a close relationship with Oslo City, outsiders are not allowed to meddle in the affairs of the territory, and it is his own idea what Count David decides.

It's the same as himself and the royal family, even if the relationship is close, the territory is different, and if the king sends a letter asking Leon to release a Ravenwood prisoner, he will choose to refuse, which is not in the interests of the town.

In the same way, Count Davy's abolition of the nobility of the Bosie family can be solved with a word of his own?

"Lord Leon, this is my only condition, if I can't do the affairs of that territory, I can only put it aside for the time being. Posie refuses to budge and aims to re-emerge as a family.

The atmosphere of the banquet suddenly became solemn.

Mormont tilted his head and whispered in Leon's ear: "Your Excellency, Count David is a kind man, since you have an unusual relationship with him, he should be able to help him in this matter." ”

"You know him?" Leon didn't know about it before.

"I'm a freelancer from the West, and I used to be in the city of Oslo. "Mormont has spent most of the cities in the West, and if nothing had happened, he would have traveled all over the Middle and South.

"Lady Percy, I will write to Count David. Leon decided to give it a try, if he succeeded, his territory would be his own, and if he failed, he would just waste some time and could use his energy elsewhere.

"Then look forward to your good news. Posie raised her glass and gestured for a drink.

The next evening, Oslo replied, and Count David agreed to restore the baron's nobility.

There was also a sentence in the letter that asked Leon to visit Oslo when he had time.

"Lord Leon, the agreement has been written, and it is ready to be sent to El Splitley. Posie stamped her seal, and the agreement was officially completed, just waiting for the Guardian of the North to take effect.

"I'll have someone transport the gold coins. "Lyon's business is now complete, and it's time to think about the relocation.

"Can you transport the gold to Oslo City?" Posie feared that the gold would be looted on the way, the last time the Viscount of Orkney was robbed of the gold was a sensation in the North, and Posie didn't want the same thing to happen to herself.

"If you wish. Leon did not refuse, and Count David did him a favor, and he should have sent some gifts, and by the way, he should have brought gold coins over.

Posey sends them to the gates of the town, and when the Northern Guardian signifies, the realm will be officially handed over.

As the group prepares to return to Ravenwood, Leon sees a carriage with a familiar figure on it.

"Wait. Leon rode back to catch up with the carriage and stop the coachman.

"What does this lord command?" the coachman saw a lot of people, and he could see at a glance that the other party's identity was not ordinary.

"I look at the people in the car. Leon dismounted and lifted the curtain to investigate.

"No problem, let's go. "He didn't notice anything out of the ordinary.

Mormon rode over: "What's wrong?"

"I seem to have seen Lisa Ann just now. Leon shook his head, he didn't find it in the carriage, perhaps he was dazzled.
