, why is it getting colder and colder?"

"Yes, this winter's coming a little early. ”

On the avenue of Yuanfan Port City, pedestrians shuttle constantly. There were two city guards, walking on the road, and they were dressed a lot, but because they had been patrolling outside all morning, the cold still made them feel uncomfortable.

"In this kind of weather, it's really freezing to death. I said, "Do you have any wine you made in the morning?" Give me a sip. ”

It was noon, but the sky was overcast, the sun didn't even come out, and the whole earth was shrouded in a layer of cold.

One of the city guards felt cold, and could not bear it, and caught a glimpse of the small flask that was faintly peeking out of the other's pocket, and he reached out to pull the flask from the man's waist.

"Wine, didn't you drink it just now? No, no, you guy, drink my wine!" the other man saw the other man come to snatch his own wine gourd. Hurriedly protected the gourd with one hand and pushed the other party with the other. looked not very happy, and kept muttering.

"Hey, why are you like this?" the city guard who grabbed the wine looked at his companion with dissatisfaction. "There must be more, right? Quick, give me a drink. Just one bite!"

said that he wanted to come up and grab it again, but the other person just didn't give it, so the two of them were on the corner of the street, and they pulled up.

In fact, the relationship between these two people is very good, and tearing up like this is just a kind of friendship between friends, just because the two of them are wearing the clothes of the city guards, so they attract the attention of some people.

"The soldiers here don't seem to be very good!" a carriage stopped in front of a nearby trading house, the curtain of the carriage was lifted high, and a boy was in the carriage, looking out.

Seeing the two dinging soldiers outside tearing, the little kid let out a low snort.

Next to the carriage, there were several men guarding the carriage on horseback, and they all looked at the two men with smiles, but they didn't say anything.

After a while, a beautiful woman came out of the nearby trading house, and as soon as she got into the carriage, she saw the boy looking out.

"Madoère. What are you looking at?" said this beautiful woman, of course, Princess Sinia, with a fat look.

At this time, the two soldiers also felt the gaze and hurriedly put down their hands.

"Auntie, I'm looking at those two people, I've always heard that the army led by Tetashaw is very elite, but just now, it is not very strict. ”

"As for the construction here, it's really amazing. However, the people are more scattered than the soldiers, and the sense of respect and inferiority is not strong, which is somewhat disappointing. His Royal Highness Madoer sighed meaningfully, and then spoke.

"Why, don't you approve of the laws here?" asked Princess Chania.

"It's so loose, you see, that some of them don't even salute us. The little prince said, referring to the ordinary citizens, who were not very afraid, some saluted, and some walked a little farther away, and did not salute.

The little prince pouted, obviously. He was amazed by the construction, but he was still unimpressed by the sloppiness of its inhabitants.

"Madoer, the city is not the same as the manor, the territory of the manor, the law is relatively strict. But the city does not need strict laws, the city has a particularity, only a mobile, relatively relaxed city, can be quickly developed, which proves that the earl is a wise lord. ”

"Of course, the necessary laws still have to be formulated, and it is said that the lord has ordered people to compile them, and as for the army, those people are the city guards, not the knights, not the main force of the territory, but only for the maintenance of law and order. Princess Sinia touched the child's head and said.

Looking at the situation outside, Princess Sinia smiled with a smile, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly: "Madoul, actually, you should study here for a few years, stay for a few years, and take a look at the world here. ”

"Madoer, in the future, the entire kingdom of Eske will be handed over to you, you will be in charge of a kingdom, and the burden on your shoulders is very heavy, so you must humbly learn from this earl. ”

"Actually, the city's laws are not lax, but they are relatively relaxed, but if they are violated, they will be severely punished. "Moreover, the laws of the Tertashaw Collar are not merely benevolent. However, to protect the people, citizens, and merchants, you can keep outsiders coming, and you need to study and learn these things slowly in the future. ”

"Yes, Auntie, I see. Madouer bowed his head and said.

Although the little prince was still a little confused in his heart, the disdain on the surface immediately put it away.

Princess Sinia smiled and stroked his head, ready to call for a drive.

"Also, how are you going to study?" she asked in the carriage.

"Auntie, what do you suggest?"

"Well, there are mainly two ways, the first is to be a prince, not to participate in the operation of the Earl's Court, I believe you can also learn a lot of things

"Second, it is the same as other aristocratic boys and girls, completely integrated into it. ”

"Can you explain what the second one does?" asked Madouer, without replying.

"Very good, your attitude is very good, there is no rough promise.

Princess Sinia was very happy, and said, and after thinking about it, she spoke again.

"Like most aristocratic systems, around seven years old. The children of the nobles in the neighborhood were all sent to serve as waiters, basically the attendants of the master and the mistress. ”

"Their task is to serve the male and female masters, to fulfill his various obligations to the male and female masters, to learn all kinds of etiquette and knowledge, well, the classes here, and some chess pieces, playing the piano, singing and other skills.

"From the age of twelve, according to their respective qualities, they began to choose the foundation, basically. This is the stage of examining career tendencies, and of course, it is not excluded that someone chooses in advance. ”

"In the second half of the age of fourteen, the profession will be determined, there are all kinds of professions, warriors, druids, priests, mages, and at the age of fifteen, the classes will be formally divided, and the faith will be determined at the same time. ”

"If you are, since you have chosen the path of a warrior, you will enter the training of warriors in advance, if you want to participate in the operation of the Earl's Court, it will be very hard, you have to hone your combat skills in peacetime, and even participate in the vigil of the patrol team, and when you are a few years older, you will be arranged to go out to fight, and even join the army to familiarize yourself with the situation. ”

"Of course, the guards of the Wang family will also follow you to ensure your safety and education. ”

"I choose the second one. After thinking for a moment, Madouer looked up and said. "Okay, then you will wear a uniform tomorrow, this is a uniform designed by Lord Earl, of course, after the age of fifteen, the profession is officially divided, and there is a special uniform, this earl pays great attention to order!"

Madouer nodded vigorously: "I will work hard, not to disgrace the royal family, my father will definitely see my achievements when he comes back victoriously, and I will also get Alice." ”

Young and old, this may be the sorrow of the royal family.

Princess Sinia thought.

But this is a helpless thing, and many aristocratic families are like this, just a little ahead of a year or two!

Thinking of this, she felt relieved again, no matter what, this is her own blood relative, and there is no direct conflict of interest with herself.

Between the two, as long as this relationship is maintained, it can be continued.

In such a situation, she naturally hopes that the child will get better and better.

The princess touched a document in her pocket, and her heart was very happy.

This is a transfer document for an estate on the island of Blue Earth. And the princess also received the knighthood of Sir Concida.

The princess now has three titles, the first is the princess, which is actually a title of one generation and cannot be hereditary.

The second is that according to the rules of the court, the title of Count of Manto is obtained, which is actually a court noble, and does not involve territory.

The title of Sir Concida, though the lowest, is the most substantial.

"Yes, Madoer, according to my judgment, the war will probably last for another year or two, and you will be fourteen or fifteen years old at that time, and when the time comes, if you can be fifteen years old, you will be given the title of second-class warrior. At the age of nineteen, receive the title of knight, your father, will be proud. ”

"The Count of Tertashaw is self-made, naturally there is something extraordinary, if he can enter the legend and be a real highness, you can learn from him, you can't go wrong. ”

"Well, Auntie, you're right. In this place, I have to study well, and I have a lot to learn besides what I have to do. The little prince said, "I wonder what kind of man this earl is, and why my father attaches so much importance to him." ”

"Oh little one, you're thinking about that too soon. Seeing the little prince's pensive appearance, Princess Sinia couldn't hold back for a while, and reached out to grab his face.

"Auntie," he watched helplessly as his aunt stretched out his hand, the place in the carriage was too difficult to hide, and after a while, his little face was caught, which made him feel very depressed.

"Okay, I won't tease you, let's go back, you didn't eat at noon today, okay, in the mansion, it's ready, hungry, right?" Princess Sinia said: "Go back and rest for a day, tomorrow morning, you will go to the Earl's Court to report, and officially participate in the study and operation." ”

"Well, I see", and now I'm hungry. The little prince nodded, feeling hungry, and on the boat, he did not eat anything.

"Be quick, though, be careful not to hit people. Then Princess Sinia said to the people outside.

Hearing her order, sure enough, the carriage sped up.

In a few moments, they had crossed two streets, leaving them far behind.

The little prince continued to look out of the window, and saw that there was a peaceful atmosphere everywhere in the city of Yuanfan Harbor.

In the sky, white snowflakes began to fall.

In the blink of an eye, the first snow fell.
