On September 21st, the day after Gray's wedding, the minor nobles of each territory led all the members of their families in different moods and hurriedly left the city of Crane and returned to their own territory. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Of course, some of them were secretly executed before they could leave the city.

And Baron Mura, who had been imprisoned in the chamber for a whole day, also led a large group of cavalry from the city of Herion to his own territory when it was almost dark.

While the citizens of Herion were still intoxicated by the wedding of Miss Neisha and Viscount Cage, an invisible storm was slowly brewing and fermenting in the ruling class of Herion.

As the ruler of the Herion, the Earl of Lockton quietly waited for the storm to hit, and he firmly believed that as long as the storm passed, his family would be stronger.

On 22 September, just after noon, Gray was in the castle for his daily knightly training, and just as he was about to finish, his personal captain, Taqia, approached him and handed him an urgent secret letter.

Gray was about to open it for a look, when his squire Delenn approached him again, saying that the Earl had told him to go to the study, and Gray took the secret letter back to his quarters in Fort Herien.

This living quarter, specially prepared by the Earl of Lockton for him and Neisha, is equivalent to an ordinary house inside and out, and the decoration inside is even more luxurious than the Earl's own room.

Cartli didn't know when she came to find Neisha, the two were in the living room at the front of the living area, chatting quietly about interesting things, they would occasionally let out a little laughter, and on the small coffee table next to them, the fragrant black tea was steaming.

When Gray entered, they both stood up and saluted.

Gray smiled faintly: "It's okay, you can continue to talk, I'll come back and change clothes, and my father asked me to go to the study to talk about something." ”

Gray said as he pointed to himself, the leather armor he was wearing, which had been covered in mud and looked a little dirty because of the knight training he had just had.

"I'll help you!" said Neisha quickly, and the man had already walked over.

Leather armor is not something that can be taken off by one person.

Gray shook his head, "No, you and Cateli keep chatting, my squire will help me!"

Next to the bedroom was a room for Gray to change his gear and clothes, and now that Gray was married, his attendants were not allowed to come and go in his bedroom at will.

"Besa, go and help Viscount Cage!" Neysha nodded, she wouldn't do things with her attendants, so she told her maid to help.

Cartli has been standing quietly next to Gray since she appeared, she didn't speak, she even forgot to say hello, she can clearly feel the changes in the people around her in the past two days, she likes this change very much, she feels that hers is slowly regaining her dignity.

And all this change is because of Gray, when she faced Gray, she was happy with awe, and there was a hint of fear in awe, she was afraid that she would be abandoned again.

Gray smiled faintly at the two ladies before entering the next room.

Once in the room, Gray had his attendants and Besa wait, while he himself stepped aside to open the secret letter, which had been delivered directly from the front line of Covind.

The contents of it made Gray very happy, the city of Covinde had been successfully captured, and the date of the capture happened to be the night of his wedding, which has to be said to be a coincidence.

As for the large piece of land that Count Borg is going to, it can only be said that Gray can accept it.

It was a natural thing, but for this Earl Borg, Gray had already remembered him firmly in his heart.

Gray knew that the Earl of Lockton was looking for him now because of this matter. Thinking of this, Gray quickly put away the letter and asked Delenn and Bessa to come over and help him change into a proper aristocratic robe.

By the time Gray got dressed and rushed to the study, half a magical hour had passed.

In the study, the Earl of Lockton and Gray only had a brief exchange, and then immediately asked the guards of the castle to invite the envoys of the three families who stayed in the city of Herion to the castle hall to discuss matters.

Immediately afterward, the two seized the time to discuss the details to be faced in the next meeting.

An hour later, at four o'clock in the afternoon, the guards came to report that the messengers of the three families had arrived.

Earl Lockton looked at Gray and said, "Let's go, Gray, let's go meet the emissary of this family!"

"Talking to the three of them?" Gray was surprised.

Count Lockton nodded: "Let's talk together, there will be unexpected effects." ”

Gray was stunned!

Through the understanding of these two days, Gray has already obtained the detailed information of these three envoys, saying that they are three envoys, but in fact, they represent four families, and one envoy represents both Viscount Booker and Lord Laban.

This did not surprise Gray and Earl Lockton, the Booker family and the Laban family have been allied for nearly two hundred years, and the two families still trust each other relatively speaking.

The messenger of the other family is the family of Uriah, who was completely defeated in the battle with the family of Laban thirty years ago and has become semi-attached to the family of Laban.

In other words, the attitude of the emissary of the Uriah family is the same as that of the emissary of the other two viscounts.

The seven autonomous territories in the south have been calm for nearly twenty years, because the war provoked by Viscount Donna a few months ago has been completely broken, and now it is time to establish a new pattern of power.

Since everyone unanimously sent envoys, they expressed their hope that they could obtain more benefits in a peaceful way in the new power structure.

When Gray and Earl Lockton walked into the hall, the messengers of the three parties were already standing respectfully in the hall.

Gray took a casual look and found that the four envoys of the two families were very close to each other, but the two envoys of the other family were far away from the four of them, as if they had some deep hatred.

The two messengers who stayed alone, Gray didn't need to ask, he had already guessed that they should be the messengers of Count Borg, and it can be seen from this that Count Borg's current situation is a little bad.

If Count Lockton chooses to be an enemy of Count Borg, then the Borgs will be in jeopardy.

And, in the eyes of the rest of the family, this is also the best choice for Earl Lockton and Gray.

Therefore, this messenger of the Count of Borg will take risks, and as soon as Baron Mellen finds him, he is immediately moved, and immediately takes action, he wants to frame other families, so that the Lockton family has to choose him.

However, they didn't know that Count Lockton had no choice at all, because Grand Duke De Looney, the ruler of the South, would not allow another count's family to be destroyed.

If you really do that, it will be equivalent to challenging the bottom line of Grand Duke De Looney.
