Chapter 469: Marquis Meiyi
Mei Yi said: "I have my own things to do, saying those is also to make my mother-in-law who died young and young in my previous life happy, Nana has her own life, I won't bother, I mean this." ”
The queen said: "In my previous life, the king and I both experienced several serious illnesses, and if it weren't for you, we would have died a long time ago. Your original intention in establishing St. Much's College was to promote the advancement of medicine so that you could save us when the time comes. Alicia didn't approve it, and I hope you don't hold a grudge against her. ”
Mei Yi said: "Queen, you don't have to worry. I have established the St. Rose Academy in Hoshino Town, and it will be some time before you become ill, and I will definitely invent the technology and medicine to save you and His Majesty, Lady Alicia, and Sister Esther. ”
The queen was relieved: "I have wronged you, my feelings are really complicated. ”
Mei Yi smiled: "I already knew, in fact, you and Lady Alicia don't know anything about the past, someone told you." In the past, the trust between us has been built through countless trials and tests. Sadly, all of this stuff is gone. You don't dare to trust me easily, and I don't trust you completely. ”
"I won't meddle in politics, but I won't ignore my past friends and relatives if they are hurt. If you have any difficulties, you can always go to Hoshino Town to find me, and ask the queen to remember the old love and give Hoshino Town a chance. ”
The queen wiped her eyes with a handkerchief and said, "It is true that Alicia and I do not know about the past, and that we have been told about it. I'm sorry, but we can't accept and do things that are ahead of our time as easily as you are. Don't say it so deadly, you are not alone in this world, and there are people who want to see you as soon as possible. ”
"I can't do much for you, but I can assure you that no one will bother it, whether it's the royal family, the nobles, or the church, it's the equivalent of an outlaw place in the elven kingdom. If you are willing to use it as a base to build your own Myrovi Kingdom, I will never stop you. This is my agreement with you, and it's the biggest thing I can do for you right now. It's just that you are not allowed to go out of town without an order. ”
Mei Yi said: "Thank you, Queen, all this is enough. Since there are people around you who know what happened back then, I won't say much about what you need to pay attention to. For the next period of time, I will stay in Hoshino Town with peace of mind and help my former hometown. ”
Before Mei Yi left, the queen asked, "What do you mean by saying to those ministers, 'Start cutting off the medicine today'?" ”
Mei Yi told the queen what happened, and the queen blushed and blamed: "In the future, you must not be so foolish again, it is not impossible to teach them a lesson, but I still hope that you will follow the teachings of the goddess and follow the right path in the world." ”
Mei Yi agreed again and again.
When Mei Yi came out of the queen's place, she saw Cecilia still waiting for him by the lake, and said, "All right, we are done, thank you, Cecilia." I'm going back to Hoshino Town, so I'm welcome to visit you when I have time. ”
"Oh...... Oh......"
Cecilia uncharacteristically sent Mei Yi out of the palace, and after watching Mei Yi ride away, she reluctantly returned to the palace.
When she saw the queen shedding tears in that uncomfortable way, she couldn't help but say to herself: What kind of person is this Meiyi, who can actually let the queen wipe his tears for him?
Lady Alicia stepped out and comforted her sister, saying, "Sister Elsa, don't feel bad, you've done enough for him, haven't you?" ”
Queen Elsa cried, "Alicia, you have always been too sensible, that is your former son, the hero who led the four clans in the crusade against the monsters. I've never been able to be like you. ”
……

After saying goodbye to Qiling, Meiyi also took a carriage and slowly returned to Hoshino Town.
The last thing he needs now is time.
It took half a month to return to Hoshino Town, and in the cheering crowd, he found a person with a frowning brow, and said in surprise: "Count Feiyi, why are you here?" ”
Count Pei Yi said angrily, "You left the True Spirit so early, why did you not return to Hoshino Town until now?" ”
Mei Yi said: "Oh, I asked the merchant of the True Spirit for a map of the palace food, and went to Binggu City, Baihua County, Sequoia County, Luoshui County, Liushui County, Huangye County, Chaolu County, Baimei County, ......."
Count Pei Yi hurriedly interrupted him and said, "Okay, let's not talk about it for now, His Majesty the King has a will, quickly dismount and listen to the oracle." ”
Mei Yi hurriedly jumped out of the carriage and stood up straight.
Earl Pei Yi said: "What are you saluting, and you are not a soldier!" Put your hands down! ”
Mei Yi put down her hand, walked behind Count Pei Yi, and said, "Open it up and see what the king said!" ”
Count Pei Yi said impatiently: "Go and stand up, I don't know what it is." His Majesty the King asked me to see you and read it in public. ”
After Mei Yi stood up, Pei Yi showed the well-sealed bamboo tube, tore the seal with snowflakes and swords in public, unfolded the silk in it, was stunned at first glance, and then stammered and read:
"Mei, Viscount Meiyi is loyal and patriotic, diligent and upright, benevolent and kind, and he is hereby promoted to ...... Marquis? Change Hoshino Town to Ice and Snow City, as a permanent fief of the Marquis of Meiyi, hereditary replacement? OMG. ”
The welcoming crowd, which had been a bit noisy, fell silent.
Mei Yi was dissatisfied: "Count Pei Yi, how can you read the oracle like this? Why are there so many questions in tone, louder, many people haven't heard it yet. ”
Count Pei Yi hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, Lord Marquis! ”
So, Count Pei Yi read it aloud again.
Silent.
A marquis is the highest title that a non-royal family can attain.
As for the Dukes of the Windy Lands and the Fairy Forest, they are both historical issues.
After Jiuli's unremitting publicity, everyone knew that Meiyi's viscount was bought with money.
However, the Marquis can't be bought, right?
After a moment of silence, everyone cheered enthusiastically.
Although the residents of Hoshino Town didn't know much about this viscount, after this person came up, law and order were quickly restored, the tax rate was greatly reduced, and everyone had a meal. To them, Meiyi is simply a god.
Now, Mei Yi has been promoted to Marquis, and they will also benefit.
Mei Yi said: "Ladies and gentlemen from Hoshino Town...... I'm sorry, citizens of Ice and Snow City, His Majesty the King has appointed me as the Marquis of Ice and Snow City, and I will live up to His Majesty's new appointment, keep my oath to the goddess, and make our Ice and Snow City a safe, rich, civilized and open city. Let's work hard together, don't worry, I won't be a threat. ”
Mei Yi said: "In addition, there are too few people in our Ice and Snow City, and you are welcome to bring your father, relatives, and friends to live in the Ice and Snow City." I never saw the people as a burden, but as a great wealth for the territory. At present, there is a lack of a large number of capable officials, soldiers, craftsmen, and teachers in the entire consular district, and talented people, regardless of their status, can show their value in our Ice and Snow City. Please help me spread these words that I have said, and laugh at me if I break my promise. ”

Soon, Meiyi's words spread throughout the surrounding consular districts.
A large number of people poured into the ice and snow city.
Mei Yi personally visited the population registration site to encourage and comfort those elves, goblins or humans who were tormented by fate.
Jiuli assisted the officials of the Marquis Court in allocating land and distributing daily necessities to the new immigrants.
When Ryuhime isn't in class, she also comes to help with Umeko-sensei.
Priest Matia summoned the priests of the nearby consular district, along with the older children in the orphanage, to help house the newcomers.
At the same time, a large number of craftsmen and businessmen from the surrounding area also poured into the ice and snow city.
The entire Ice and Snow City has become a huge construction site.
After a year of construction, the Ice City has a completely new look.
Wide and straight roads, neat and beautiful houses, the magnificent St. Rose College, the spacious and bright primary and secondary schools, the holy and solemn temple of Goddess Emilia, endless farmland, reserved industrial parks, lively bazaars......
Many people who participated in the construction of the ice and snow city have also made their homes here.
After the census, Mei Yi got the data and looked at it, and was half frightened: "Teacher Meizi, you said that we have a million people in Ice and Snow City?" No way? Some of the larger consular districts have as few as 100,000 people. ”
Teacher Meizi said: "It's true. Lady Meiyi......"
Meiyi said: "Teacher Meizi, just call me Meiyi." ”
Teacher Meizi's heart warmed, and said: "Meiyi, there are too many poor people in this world, now everyone knows that Meiyi Border Marquis will protect their safety and ensure that they can have enough food and clothing, who doesn't want to come?" Even the Northern Fairy Forest, which has always been considered very surplus and xenophobic, has thousands of people coming. ”
Mei Yi said: "Teacher Meizi, is your family here?" ”
Meizi said happily: "All of them are here, and a few of my classmates are also here......
When Mei Yi heard this, she really jumped up and said, "Are there any Yuzu teachers and Gardenia teachers?" ”
Teacher Meizi was surprised: "How do you know? But they're not teachers yet! ”
Mei Yi said excitedly: "Take me to meet them!" ”
* * *
When Mei Yi saw Yuzu and Gardenia, who were only seventeen or eighteen years old, she was so excited that she hugged them and Meizi and said, "Three teachers, it's really good to finally see you......
As he spoke, Meiyi's tears fell, he quickly wiped his tears, and said, "Let's go, my carriage is outside, go to my mansion for dinner today, and live in the mansion recently, with Teacher Meizi." ”
After a sumptuous dinner in the mansion, when Yuzu, Gardenia and Plum were walking together in the newly built Marquis's Mansion, Teacher Gardenia couldn't help but say, "Meizi, why is Marquis Meiyi ...... Uh, Meiyi...... So excited to see us? What's going on? Or has he always been like that? ”
Teacher Meizi shook his head and said: "Our marquis has always been a very stable person, I don't know why, when he first saw me, he was also like this. It's as if he knew us for a long time. I don't know. ”
Yuzu said: "No matter, we are all here anyway, and we will try our best to cultivate talents for Ice and Snow City in the future, that is the only thing we can do and are best at doing." ”
