021. Goodbye peasant girl
It's still hard work, more like a 24-hour bodyguard, and Duncent has to help with big and small affairs.
However, there is more free time, especially when Duncent is having fun with some women, and Bran and Arno can watch whether there are eagles flying in the sky and count the number of eagles.
On the third day of becoming a servant, Rodo and Mon-Er also set up a line, and Mon-Er gathered two hundred people and built a tent fifteen kilometers from Ludo's territory.
Send someone to negotiate with Rhodo about the prisoner fine.
After the rebellion of the royal capital, rebellions broke out, and for a while Kefusha could not completely annihilate the opponents, and adopted the method of co-opting and suppressing, and the threat was not big, let it go first, and Rhodo was a huge threat, but at present, the Poles in the east of the kingdom came to find trouble again, and he just sent two thousand people.
The armament is empty, and only part of the troops can be broadcast with Shan Er, and it is stated that Shan Er will use a divisive strategy to separate Rhodo and the prince, and the way is chosen by Shan Ear, giving him a lot of autonomy.
The young son is still in his hands, and Rodo must talk about it, and at the same time, Rodo also sent someone to send the head of the tall and thin knight, threatening that he has masters and sufficient food and grass in his territory, and he is not afraid to fight himself.
At the same time, Duncent was sent by Rhodo to another town eighteen kilometers away, which was also his own domain to inspect the fortifications.
Duncent sent eight men to act as preemptive scouts, heading in all directions to avoid encountering the enemy.
Bran and Arnold went along, and the two of them made their way to the west of the castle, passing an uphill slope as they set out, and bumped into the peasant girl from the previous time.
That's a coincidence.
She was pulling the cart hard, but the uphill was too steep, pulling step by step. The skin of the hand she pushed was broken, but it still didn't work.
The horse that Bran gave her last time turned out to be sick and could no longer use it because she had not eaten or drunk yesterday, so after feeding the horse for the last meal, she patted the horse sadly and left with her father on her own.
"Bran, it's this guy again." Arnold dismounted and directly helped.
Bran just watched quietly.
After pulling it up, the peasant girl gave her a grateful look and bowed her head to Bran and Arnold, but her head was always low, and she couldn't see their faces more clearly than last time.
The old father in the peasant girl's car, Bran didn't see it, and the old man covered it with a hat.
Of course, even without a hat, Bran couldn't understand it.
I don't know how the bloodshot in my eyes hasn't cleared yet, and when I look at things, the fog that appears is getting heavier and heavier.
Bran thought he was going blind for a while, and he was terrified.
Fortunately, there is still a little light, and it is not deteriorating.
The sun was shining, and Bran was starting to faint again.
"Stop."
Bran suddenly called out to the peasant girl.
The peasant girl was scared and wanted to move forward.
But then Bran rode in front of him, and when he dismounted, he tied the cart with his horse, and also tied Arno's horse, so that it became two horses and a cart, and he let the peasant girl ride it, and he himself leaned unceremoniously on the cart.
Bran took out the wood frankincense from his waist and took a bite.
He also lost two, one for Arnold and one for the peasant girl.
"Seeing you go like this, the purpose should be the same, let's go together. It's getting dark, it's dangerous outside, and with us, your father and daughter will be safer. ”
This thing is known to the peasant girl, from the Aegean Sea, which is a kind of aristocratic luxury, and her mother often ate it during her lifetime to keep her mouth fragrant.
She rubbed it, then took it in her mouth, and it didn't take long for her mouth to be full of fragrance.
Arnold ate it as candy. I didn't appreciate the deliciousness of this thing and the benefits that left it on my mouth.
Three hours into the night, since it was not raining, the four of them went straight to the open meal, Bran threw his dry food to the peasant girl and her father, and he still closed his eyes and rested.
Although the peasant girl rode the horse much more easily, she kept looking behind her with fear, as if she was afraid of being discovered something.
The old man in the car removed his hat several times and looked at Bran with the little residual vision that was still visible in his eyes, but Bran was never distracted, but he said, "Lie down and don't make a sound, and disperse when you reach your destination, it is for your benefit." ”
The peasant girl was a little curious about Bran, and when she judged that Bran was sleeping, she asked Arno softly, but Arno didn't understand, but said, "Maybe he (Abu) is tired."
A day and a half later.
They arrived at a large town with a population of more than 1,000.
A 600-meter-long wooden fence was erected on the outskirts of the town to block the danger.
Forty-five years ago, this place was a small fortress for criminals.
When Viscount Rhodo's grandfather became a lord, he began to build the land and move the population.
Two more gates, three towers, and a well were dug to irrigate the wheat fields.
There is water and food, and the population develops naturally.
If it hadn't been for a plague ten years ago, the population would have exceeded 2,000, or even 3,000.
This is one of the main towns on the kingdom's list.
It was also the economic backbone of Viscount Rhodo.
After years of turmoil in the country and the flight of peasants, although the town has a population of only 1,300, it is still quite large.
There are also hotels, hostels, shops.
Many traders also come here to exchange information on their lives.
Duxant had just arrived on the front foot, and Bran had arrived.
Entering the lively town, Arnold seemed happy.
After separating from the peasant girl, the peasant girl went to the hotel, while Bran and Arnold went to meet Duncent first.
Walk through the wooden gate, the iron gate, and enter the straight walkway.
The halls of the castle are vast and were built in the same way as in the early years. There is no excessive ornate arrangement.
The floor was paved with neat stones, there were no carpets, no statues, no frescoes, the ceiling was empty, and even the chandelier was installed only after the candles were often extinguished by the wind.
Duncent was the lord of the hall.
The maid of the castle is fanning him.
No matter how simple it is, some traditions that are different from those of the nobility and commoners are still there.
If you want to sit on this place, you have to go up seven steps.
Make the lord look at the lord in a high-facing posture.
Four town governors.
The priests, magistrates, magistrates, and mayors of the towns, who were not of high status in the territory, put away their usual majesty to the inhabitants and curry favor in every possible way.
All Bran had to do was straighten up like a bamboo, and draw his sword a few points out as Duncent listened to the report and occasionally made a disgruntled voice.
That's fine.
In the past, Viscount Rhodo would come here once every month and a half, so there were also two little lovers in this place.
Duncent finished discussing the matter, his eyes were strange, and he motioned for Hu Cong to follow and go to his father's lover's room to "listen" to whether they needed anything.
After that, the two of them had nothing to do, so they went to the tavern for a while.
After entering the tavern, the middle-aged woman who sold wine and wore thick makeup also went hand in hand with Bran to get some benefits.
Bran didn't want to drink, so he asked for some water and food, and by the way, he heard what was popular here.
And the cups in the tavern are all copper cups with paint off, and there is always a strange smell, and Bran doesn't like it, and even brings the cups himself.
"It's weird to fill a clean silver cup with water, what kind of noble lord to pretend."
When the servant poured water, he muttered in his heart.
And Bran also asked the servant to drink a cup of water before he continued to drink the water.
"Listen to me......"
Some of the customers spoke German, and some of them didn't.
Bran heard them talking about the recent war.
"Kefusha, Palace, Knights against ......", these proper names Bran kept hearing.
This is the southeastern part of Bavaria, and there are royal and noble domains.
The Viper's governance and laws in this area were lighter than those in other places, so the local people still had a good impression of Wang.
Also because the owner of the town, Rodo, opposed Kefusha, so it was very polite for everyone to say the name of the palace minister.
