019: Yoshiko
The sound of drums echoed dullly in the main hall of the Tinghai Temple, which was dozens of meters square. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Grand Duke Eisenhow, with his eyebrows tightly knit, buried his whole body in the high-backed chair, his right index finger and middle finger alternately striking the mahogany tabletop that was some years old.
Tuk Tuk ...... Sincere!
The drums stopped.
"Kane. The Grand Duke's tone stabilized, and his eyebrows stretched slightly, as if he had a certain number in his heart.
Young Kane raised his head with effort, his eyes full of unyieldingness.
The majesty of the Grand Duke's mountain made Kane lie on the ground stiffly like a little beast with its head drained of its meridians, even if he was invincible, he would rather die than give in.
"Two choices. The Grand Duke looked at Kane, who was a little spasmodic in his body, and there was some hesitation in his words: "Enter my Duke's mansion as a staff member, receive a third-class earldom, plus a one-time deposit of 50,000 yuan." But I am not allowed to take half a step out of the house until I die. ”
Kane was silent, still staring at Grand Duke Eisenhower like a badly wounded little beast.
Fifty gold coins per month, six hundred gold coins a year, which is equivalent to a year's territorial tax for an earl of a thousand fiefdoms.
God punishes the continent, and the knighthood is seventh.
Princes, dukes, marquises, uncles, sons, males, knights.
A duke who owns an independent state can be canonized, but this title is divided into a fictitious title and a real title.
The false title is a good one, but it cannot be passed on to the descendants.
Actual title, possession of territorial fiefdom, inheritance of title, hereditary replacement.
The third-class earl that Grand Duke Eisenhower spoke of was the false title.
"How?" The Grand Duke's left eyelid twitched slightly, and he picked up the celadon glazed tea cup on the table and blew it slightly, causing the few blue leaves to spin in the water.
If you are an ordinary person, you are afraid that when you hear about this reward, you will already be overjoyed, and it is not impossible for those who lack concentration to make a state of madness.
The lifelong ban is true, but the clothes and food for a lifetime, coupled with the title of earl, are enough to make all the poor young people at the bottom excited.
"Grand Duke. Thero lowered his voice and called out.
"Needless to say, my father has made up his mind. Eisenhao mistakenly thought that his long-time heartfelt subordinate and life-and-death robe wanted to persuade him.
"The Grand Duke, your power is too great, I'm just afraid-" Selo's face was a little concerned, he had been living and dying for decades, and he was already familiar with the words and deeds of the Grand Duke.
The Grand Duke was slightly stunned, put the teacup in his hand back on the table, and a few drops of water splashed out, dripping on the table, giving birth to a few water spots.
This army was fearless, and Ai Senhao, the god of war who did not change his face at the head of Wanfu, was a little panicked.
"My grandfather slept a little late yesterday. The Grand Duke's face did not change, his long sleeves waved over the table, the water stains disappeared quietly, and at the same time, there was an incomparable coercion on Kane.
Thelo was silent, nor did he break it.
Don't look at this Kane is only a young boy, but once the news of his bathing in the glory of the gods leaks out, I am afraid that the eight million creatures of the Principality of Orrick will be trampled by iron hooves and turned into dead souls.
Orrick is the life's work of Grand Duke Eisenhow, and here not only have his millions of people, decades of inheritance, but also his family and children, protégés.
Kill him?
The things that the gods touch are holy things, and they have powers that are difficult for the world to comprehend and speculate.
If this young man dies, it will inevitably cause a change in the heavens and the earth, and if he is stepped on and captures this change, the Principality of Orrick will still be unable to escape the doom of destruction.
Young Kane is very involved and has to be treated with caution.
If he had agreed to the Grand Duke's proposal, it would have been the best outcome.
"Whew-hu-"
In the dreary air, there was the hissing sound of big breathing, and Kane grew his mouth and nose to suck in the air outside of him.
Tens of seconds later, a few traces of blood crept up onto Kane's pale little face.
Selo was a little moved, looking at his appearance, if the Grand Duke withdrew his power a little later, the young man was afraid that he would be crushed to death.
But he, a twelve-year-old boy, did not moan at all, let alone beg for mercy.
This kind of heart can't help but give rise to a little chill in my heart.
There were a few murderous intent on the Grand Duke's face.
If this son is not used for his own use, he will be killed, or in time he will become a scourge of fierce enemies.
It was quiet inside the house.
The silence could only be heard as the three of them breathed.
Kane's breathing was cramped and calmed.
Thelo's snort was long, steady.
The Grand Duke's breathing was short, steady but occasionally undulating.
"What else?" Kane scrambled to his feet, leaving a humanoid water-stained mark.
Grand Duke Orrick breathed for a moment, and then he was a little short.
"Don't think about it again?" The Grand Duke's eyes narrowed slightly, and his sharp gaze pierced Kane's eyes, as if to shoot him in pairs.
The boy is fearless, standing upright, looking at each other.
After a while, the Grand Duke sighed slightly.
"Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers?" asked the Grand Duke.
"The afterlife is terrible!" Eisenhower replied to himself.
The breeze swept through the garden, swirling into this oppressive world, sending a touch of coolness to the three of them.
In the extremely cold land, there are few spring castles.
Although the capital of the principality is surrounded by snow on the four rings, the city is like the hinterland of the south of the Yangtze River, with four seasons like spring, and the green is always there, just like the blue jade, thrown in the snowfield, rare and valuable.
The Emerald City, hence the name.
"My father's three sons and three daughters are all masterpieces. The Grand Duke got up, walked slowly, and approached the side of the elder, looking up and down earnestly, as if Kane had just arrived.
The Grand Duke's pace is not big, where he lands, there must be a light explosion sound, and then lift his feet, only a faint shoe mark is left in the original place, and there is no half of the broken lines of stone floor tiles.
Seventeenth-level generals, with every gesture, can bring out the power of shattering mountains and stones.
And the Dagong's demeanor is explosive and powerful, but it seems to be no different from the small people.
This control of power is superb.
It is common to pull out the mountain, and it is rare to lift weights.
Seeing the Grand Duke get up, Thero's figure was shaky, and he was already behind Eisenhow.
Like a guard, like a shadow.
It's a pity that the youngest daughter Avril is over 20 years old this year and will marry a wife soon. The Grand Duke seemed to be talking to himself, "My Duke intends to accept you as a righteous son, how about it?"
Kane was silent, not happy, and not afraid.
Those who have thunder in their chests and face like a peaceful lake can worship the general.
The Grand Duke secretly praised in his heart.
gain, but the face is not happy, loss, but the heart is persistent.
On this heart, this young man has begun to show the demeanor of a general.
"This prince has been crisscrossing the battlefield for decades, laying down this million hectares of snowfield land. "The Grand Duke has his hands behind his back, and his face is both complacent, but there is also loneliness" It is a pity to think that the rich coastal land, the Jiangnan Paste Frontier, the great rivers and rivers, and the mountains and ancient lands have no chance to touch. ”
The Grand Duke walked to the door, drew his sword and pointed at the sky.
"A man stands in the world, does not expand the territory, and points out that the country is no different from the frog at the bottom of the well, and the bird in the deep mountains. The Grand Duke was in high spirits, and a young general with a heart appeared in front of Kane.
"I am willing to accompany my father-in-law to listen to the sea and watch the river, and ride the horse to the south of the Yangtze River. Kane was neither humble nor arrogant, but his eyes were like two flames jumping faintly.
"It's not easy to walk, are you afraid?"
"Death is not afraid!"
"Good, good, good" The Grand Duke threw his sword into the ground, and the sword body entered without earth, "It's good to die and not afraid, Selo, take him with you." ”
"I'm going to die for a lifetime. Thelo said quietly.
"Lead the way. Kane straightened his clothes, bowed to the Grand Duke, crossed the threshold, and went straight forward, without time to look back.
