Chapter 169: Visiting
In the imperial capital of Valu, Ney opened a commercial foundation in the empire with a steady stream of ceramic products, and after obtaining a huge amount of wealth, he built a large mansion in the imperial capital, which is now also the place where Leo and his warriors stayed.

"Congratulations to the young master, in this battle for the imperial throne, Crown Prince Raymond has indeed succeeded in ascending to the throne, the young master has made great contributions, I believe that Young Master Raymond will definitely not treat the young master badly!" Ney smiled and congratulated, in Ney's heart, he always believed that the master who can continue to climb to a high position is worth following.
"Well, this time it was just luck. If Cardinal Owen hadn't succeeded in removing the toxin for the Emperor so that the Emperor could stop the Four Great Legions, I'm afraid this time it would have been a failure. The queen is also a decisive woman, and she did not hesitate to kill the Prince of Grantham and Cardinal Owen of the Arbitrator, but fortunately she did not succeed, otherwise, we would not have had a chance to celebrate here. "When it comes to all this today, Leo is sweating in his head, it's really thrilling.
"In fact, the most important thing to thank today is Prince Grantham, if it weren't for his impartial ruling, the latter party might have already gained the upper hand, if it wasn't for him to let Cardinal Owen remove poison for the emperor, the queen's plan would have succeeded. The key to this change in the imperial capital lies in that Prince Grantham!" Feng Xifan, who had never been silent on the side, suddenly interjected, but he was talking about the idea of the matter.
Coincidentally, just as Feng Xifan mentioned Prince Grantham, there were military officials outside who came to pay a report to His Royal Highness Prince Grantham of the Holy Griffin Empire. This news made several people in the room look at each other, not knowing what this Royal Highness the Prince meant. However, His Royal Highness the Prince was able to deign to come to visit an earl, and Leo naturally did not dare to take it big, so he hurriedly greeted him.
"Haha, congratulations to Earl Leo, the proud life of the official is really worth celebrating!" Prince Grantham was quite easy-going to Leo when he arrived, and the usually serious aristocratic frame was also missing at this time, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth all the time.
"His Royal Highness the Prince has praised it, this is just His Majesty the Emperor's appreciation and remembrance of the old feelings, but in fact, I haven't done anything!" Li Aoqian conceded.
"Count Leo is too modest, a young man should have the sharpness of a young man, you don't need to follow us old men, it is a bit dull!" Prince Grantham looked at Leo with extremely soft eyes, and his words were also very kind, as if he did not treat Leo as an outsider at all. Prince Grantham's enthusiasm made Leo a little strange, there is a saying that nothing to do is either a traitor or a thief, Leo's heart is secretly vigilant, not knowing what this Prince of Grantham wants to do.
As if sensing Leo's deliberate sense of distance and unfamiliarity, Prince Grantham slightly changed the topic and asked, "I heard that Baron Leo was born in the Covinus family, but he is not very happy with the Covinus family?"
The prince's mention of Leo's origin touched Leo's sore spot, and Leo replied with great reluctance: "Yes, Viscount Colin Covenus is my father, but I am only the second son in the family and have no inheritance rights, so after the knighthood was conferred, I left the Covinus family and became my own independent door." ”
Gently touching the beard between his lips, Prince Grantham seemed to be unaware of Leo's ugly face, and asked again on this question: "Although I have not been in the Varu Empire for a long time, I have heard rumors in the market that it seems that Count Leo is not the heir of the Covinus family?
Leo glanced up sharply at Prince Grantham, and saw that he seemed to be just gossiping, but there was no hostility. Leo was silent for a moment before deciding to tell the truth: "Yes, my father told me before he died that I was not his own flesh and blood, and that my origin is no longer exquisite. ”
"Ahh
His Royal Highness the Prince and Leo chatted casually for a few more words and then got up to say goodbye, which made Leo a little confused, I don't know what His Royal Highness the Prince came this time for, is it just to chat with himself?
However, he seemed quite happy to see the appearance of His Royal Highness the Prince, until he walked out of Leo's mansion and got into the carriage, and the smile on his face kept on, which made the coachman, who rarely saw the appearance of the Prince, look at Leo with some surprise.
Just as Prince Grantham's carriage had departed, the news of His Royal Highness's personal visit to the new Baron Leo and his happy conversation was brought to the table of Grand Duke Solo by the agents of the Ministry of Supervision. Since Raymond ascended the throne as emperor, the first thing is to canonize Leo as a baron, and it is obvious that the new emperor has a lot of trust in Leo, so Grand Duke Solo does not dare to relax the supervision of Leo, so as not to raise tigers and make the mistake of the party raging again.
The Prince of the Holy Griffin Empire, who dominates the continent in the name of a knight, personally visits a small new earl, even if it is a count trusted by the new emperor of the Varu Empire, which is very unusual, and it is said that the usually serious prince still came out of Leo's mansion with a smile on his face. There must be some connection between this Leo and Prince Grantham, so what is it?
Grand Duke Solo gently twisted the information with one hand, and unconsciously tapped the table with his knuckles on the desk with the other. Grand Duke Solo's thoughts began with Leo being awarded the title of baron by the emperor, and little by little he recalled all the suspicious things about Leo, and when he thought of those Cossack cavalrymen, the knuckles of his right hand couldn't help but hit the table hard.
The Holy Griffin Empire has always been famous for its cavalry legions, but a team of extremely elite cavalry has mysteriously appeared under Leo's hands, to say that it has nothing to do with the Holy Griffin Empire, Grand Duke Solo absolutely does not believe it, and then think of Prince Grantham personally visiting Leo, there must be a connection between the two people, maybe the mysterious force behind Leo is the Holy Griffin Empire meddling.
Grand Duke Solo has been monitoring intelligence for decades, and has always judged people by conspiracy theories first, and then slowly overturned their suspicions, and now Leo is basically like a high-level spy infiltrating the Varu Empire in the eyes of Grand Duke Solo. (To be continued.) )
