027. Dinner
Viking prophets and circulating frescoes say that Viking warriors who died on the battlefield were able to ascend to the heavens, pass through the Endless Land, and be summoned by the Lord God Odin.
There is wine, beauty; A warrior who dies in his bed, never sad or negative.
Those who can't go up can only go into the dark realm to suffer, and after a certain number of years, they will live again as human beings and be reborn as a human being.
If you are killed by slaves, prostitutes, etc., you will never be reincarnated.
Curie's revenge made Nurenen, who remained in Finland, swear to the god Odin to avenge his father and never die.
Twenty-three-year-old Nurenen continued to rebel against seventy-year-old Curie.
A sunny year, a dying old man.
Due to the unfair rewards and punishments after Curie's victory, Nurenen was helped by the strongest mercenary group in Northern Europe, the "Jumus Viking Warriors", and the situation gradually reversed.
The founder of the Jums Viking warriors, he was the "first" Viking warrior in history to unify Denmark and Norway, "Laugorm (b. 1090-1162)".
This person is also the eighth king to appear in the Venetian god literature, the book "Song of Heroes".
In the eyes of the Vikings, it was on par with Arthur, the wise king of England in the eyes of the Northerners.
As a young man, he took part in the conquests of the East (present-day Rus', Central Asia), and he selected heroic men from among the Slavs.
After the elimination, the warriors between the ages of eighteen and fifty were selected for the regiment.
Later, the descendants of Laugorm were unable to control this force, and after several masters, it is now an independent power, and the "chief" is regarded as one of the princes and is stationed in Denmark.
Nominally under the rule of the King of Norway, he was conscripted into the army (once a year at most) and did not pay taxes.
……
In the study, the conversation continued.
"This round of the battle for the throne lasted ten years, Nuren's father was avenged, and Curie's main team was scattered by the army, and his whereabouts are unknown, and legend has it that he hid on a small island in the North Sea." Leary said.
"I'm eighty years old, and it looks like I'm going to see Odin soon...... As for the island?" Viscount Meng Gao thought for a moment, "Curie is likely to flee to 'Scotland' to seek refuge, when he was young, he had a piece of land in Scotland, and then he ascended the throne before leaving the place, he has two generals, and he still remains in Scotland, and has power.
In this way, in order to consolidate the throne, Nuren will definitely hunt down Curie in an all-out way, and Norway and England will stand more closely. And there is also the 'Papal Peace Decree', even if it is really defeated, but because His Majesty Edward participated in the Second Holy War, as long as England sends someone to Rome to request, the Holy See will definitely intervene, and they are all members of the light, and it is difficult for Scotland to disobey the order......"
The faster Meng Gao spoke, the more he swallowed his saliva, and coughed a few times.
"Father, don't get too excited, it's just a small talk, and your body can't support you to go to England again, you forgot that during the Second Crusade, the lords of the peninsula went to Rome, but you stayed at the manor to recuperate."
The son-in-law Nikel's words were meant to remind his father-in-law that he was old, and the leg injury left when he met bandits in England back then, so that the old man could pay attention to his mood swings.
Not participating in the epic Second Crusade to take back the Holy City has always been a malaise in my heart, and I have been ridiculed by people of my age.
This made Meng Gao displeased, gave his son-in-law a blank look, and was stimulated by these words, and his mind became active. Grandson Leary is young, and the Northern Chaos is a good opportunity to increase the prestige of the family.
After decades of being a merchant aristocrat, although he had a certain status, it was very difficult to obtain substantial land in Rome, and his second hometown England was vast and sparsely populated, and the nobles who had made military achievements had a high chance of getting hereditary fiefs.
At that time, he thought too much, did not participate in the war in the East, and did not sponsor any young knights who wanted to make meritorious contributions, although most of his noble friends who went to the East, although most of them died in battle, although they died, their names were recorded in the history books.
This opportunity can't be missed, and the long legs still have an old ...... with themselves
Make a name for yourself today!
Meng Gao decided that within a few months, he would be ready for a trip north.
A seventy-year-old man could die at any time, and Meng Gao began to think of something he was interested in ten years ago, even if he was in bed, he had to get up and write it down, and then implement it.
The people in the conversation didn't know about his crazy thoughts, but just echoed them.
"My lord, I heard that the conflict between the two countries has caused heavy losses to the archers with archery talents in the British Isles."
Tie Shan, who has always acted as a listener, also said a word under Bran's eyes, brushing up on his presence.
"Speaking of this English archer, I ...... when I was young"
"Knock ......"
The knock sounded again, this time it was her daughter Deborah, and it had been an hour since she had last knocked on the door, and when she entered, she gave her husband a blank look, and looked at her father and the guests, indicating that the banquet dishes had already been prepared.
But the men and guests of this family hid in the study and did not come out, so that Deborah himself came to remind them.
"Let's eat, talk while eating, don't snub the guests."
"It's been a big benefit." Bran understood what was in his words, thanked him, and ended the discussion.
Tie Shan said in his heart, this fucking boring discussion is finally over, and a few people are talking about the cold and desolate north, and they haven't been there, and they are not interested.
The meal was so long delayed that even the servants who were preparing to serve yawned.
When the corridor finally made a number of footsteps, everyone quickly cheered up.
The servants saw two guests behind Viscount Meng Gao, one older and stronger, and the other younger. Sven is delicate.
The younger one, obviously with a higher status, should also be the protagonist today.
The young nobleman had short hair, sideburns, a silver ring on his hand, and was dressed in thin white silk...... More handsome than Master Leary, it looks like ...... Like a prince!
What a handsome aristocrat.
The iron mountain with a straight face beside Bran flattered his Sven even more.
In front of the rectangular table covered with a red tablecloth, Bran is placed on the left, closest to the master, Viscount Menggao, next to him is Tie Shan, Lery, Lery's wife Rhea, opposite Lery's parents, and the hidden heroine Jiuxi, next to Lerie's mother, diagonally opposite Bran.
Earlier, Leary's best friend, Pillay Joseph, who loved bullfighting and drinking, was absent because he had volunteered to participate in the island conflict with the Knights Hospitaller.
After sitting down, the host Meng Gao briefly introduced Bran and Tieshan, and then began to eat and pray, finishing the speech. The servant stepped forward and filled his glass.
Leary preemptively saluted Bran, with a smile in his eyes, as if to say, "Look, I didn't lie to you, the cousin I introduced to you is beautiful and gentle." ”
Bran's pupils stayed on Jiuxi's body, and he didn't shy away from looking at it for about three seconds.
There is nothing polite to be polite, this kind of similar blind date meeting, generous, direct, is the standard process.
As he took his first sip of wine, Bran remembered the Swabian princess who had been currying favor two days before.
The women are compared, both of them have long curly eyelashes, Jiuxi's body has more advantages, her skin, facial features, and figure are stronger than that of Wang Nu.
This delicate goose egg face is also powdered, which looks more charming, but the Swabian princess is not, and it does not seem to add points after adding powder, but destroys the sense of naturalness.
But even if the girl in front of her picks out several advantages, it is far from crazy.
After all, extinguishing candles is the same, if it is a good choice as a lover, it is obvious that Leary and this Dan family will not agree. Bran decided to "not marry a flirtatious man".
If he still has relatives of the same generation, then he can marry this girl and conclude more intimate relationships, but unfortunately the Charman family is officially related, and only one of them is left.
