Chapter XXXIV Promotion Agreement
"Your Excellency, Messenger. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć After some washing, Louis took Meinie into the reception room of the mayor's hall and met the legendary envoy of the Imperial City.
The messenger was a middle-aged man, who looked to be in his forties, and exuded an arrogance that had lived in the Imperial City for a long time, as if he looked down on the poor countryside of Lorraine.
Indeed, people from big cities have a sense of contempt for such remote towns, and Louis understands this, but why does he still feel so unhappy?
"I really want to hang him up and beat him!" Louis secretly scolded in his heart, but on the surface, he politely greeted the imperial city envoy.
"Is this the fourth prince of Duke Furywind?" Louis declared in Fury Wind City that he was not favored by Duke Fury, which he had heard even in the Imperial City, but although he despised Louis in his heart, he still had to be polite on the surface, after all, he was the son of the Duke, and if he neglected Louie, he would snub the Duke.
"The boy is none other than Louis, meet the messenger. "The titles of the envoys of the imperial capital are generally above the viscount, and Louis has not yet been awarded, so normally the status is below the envoy, so he is holding the junior ceremony.
"When Prince Louis sees me, just call me Pete, is this Mrs. Childe?" His eyes lit up when he saw Menny in the morning, but he didn't expect that there was such a stunning beauty as Menny in this kind of poor country, so he kept sneaking at her.
However, Louie didn't notice this yet, and introduced with a smile: "This is Mennie, the daughter of the mayor of Lorraine, who is now helping me with my work. ā
"Oh?" the messenger Pete's eyes lit up, obviously he didn't expect that such a stunning woman was not Louie's woman, and his mind was alive at the moment.
"A gentleman like this kind of aristocrats generally doesn't take women seriously, this Menie is estimated to be his bed partner at most, and now that such a big thing as a promotion in the town falls on me, if I make a small request, I guess Louie, this kid should not refuse. ā
Thinking about this, he and Louis politely walked out of the mayor's hall and began to be led by Louis and Menie to visit the current town of Lorraine.
The mayor's hall is located in the central square of the city, so as soon as you walk out the door, you can see that the central square is now covered with a beautiful layer of white floor tiles and has an ornate fountain in the middle.
On both sides of the central square is the bustling free trade market, which is crowded with people, and all kinds of shouts and transactions reach the ears of the three people.
Further out, there were taverns, simple schools, blacksmith shops, schoolyards, barracks, tall turrets, turrets, and finally the magnificent walls that Pete had seen when he entered.
Along the way, the town of Lorraine is already at the level of a small city in every point, and the next step is to check the tax ability and the census to determine the town's eligibility for promotion.
In the evening, Louie had dinner with the real Medles and Mennie with Pete, the messenger of the Imperial City, and after eating, Louis chatted with Pete alone for a while, while Menie stood a short distance behind him and waited.
As the sky gradually darkened, Pete glanced at Meinie a few times, intentionally or unintentionally, with a hint of heat in his eyes, and began to hint to Louie: "Little Louie, that's what Uncle Toda calls you, you maid...... Well, it's really good-looking. ā
"Huh? Not bad. Louis sensed that something was wrong, Pete behaved very plainly all day, satisfied everywhere but just didn't sign the promotion certificate with Louie, the original purpose was here, and he fell in love with Louie's beautiful follower.
"I haven't even tasted this pretty girl, can I cheapen you?" Louie scolded secretly, and then pretended not to understand. Pete was a little annoyed when he saw that Louis didn't react.
"Little Louie, I think your town is quite good, but ah, this town is a small town, and there is still a distance from the city. Pete deliberately tilted his head and turned around, his gaze drifting to Mennie, intentionally or unintentionally.
At this time, Menie also felt that something was wrong, and looked at Louie with a hint of pleading, she was really afraid that Louie would sacrifice herself for the promotion of the town, although she also believed that Louie would not do this, but she couldn't help but feel a little flustered before she got a definite answer.
"Alas. Louie sighed, why should a very simple thing always have to be so complicated, Louie tried to stuff the money over, but Pete didn't even look at it, it seemed that he was staring at Mennie with an iron heart.
"I really can't help it!" Louis shook his head and turned to look at Pete, "Lord Emissary, I've had enough food and drink, and I've rested enough, how about we go to the study now and complete the promotion procedures?" This is an ultimatum that Louis gave Pete, but the stupid Pete doesn't seem to have seen the situation yet, or he has forgotten something, a very important thing.
He forgot that Louie had been a robber before, and you were going to rob him of a woman in front of the robbers?
"Little Louie......" Pete shook his head, and wanted to say something more, he felt that his hint was obvious enough, if Louis didn't agree, he would be too unfamiliar, and he wanted to say something at the moment, but he saw Louis suddenly stretch out his hand, and a slap came directly.
"Little Louie is also your name, shameless face!"
"Smack!" Pete was slapped by Louis and hit the ground, and then a cold air rushed in, freezing him directly.
At this time, the guards who followed Pete reacted, and wanted to step forward but were stopped by Meini, who had greatly increased her strength, and directly trapped the two one-star swordsman-level guards with the dungeon technique.
With the level of Meinie's three-star magician, it was impossible to control the two for a long time, but at this moment, Louis stepped forward and released a strong cold air, freezing the dungeon technique released by Meinie, making the cage that trapped the two guards even stronger.
"Lord Louie, you knocked him unconscious, what should we do with the promotion procedures......" Louis beat the messenger for her, and Mennie was moved again, such a man is simply the coveted husband candidate, but unfortunately she is only a lowly follower and is not qualified to be Louis's wife.
Thinking of this, Meini was a little sad, but quickly adjusted.
Louis didn't notice the change in Menny's expression, shook his head and said with a smile, "It's okay, I don't believe he's a hard bone." Someone, take him to the dungeon. ā
Under the dark dungeon, Louis touched the ice, and a cold sensation woke Pete, who had passed out.
"Sizzle......" Pete struggled to open his eyes, only to find that there were four feet in front of him. Looking up with difficulty, it was indeed Louie and Mennie, looking at him with a hint of indifference.
"You...... You guys...... I'm an envoy of the imperial capital, are you going to commit treason!" Pete looked at Louis and Menie with wide eyes and an angry expression.
