Chapter 58: Malice

The next day, Thunder rode on a tall horse, with Fafer on his side, and galloped to the hunting grounds.

Located on the outskirts of Thales, the hunting grounds were established by the founding monarchs and housed wild beasts such as lions and tigers, with the original purpose of keeping the royal family in their blood name. After thousands of years of development, it became a place for nobles to play. In particular, the current King Newgate XXII, Aubrey Newgate, has taken this to the extreme.

The soldiers of the hunting ground carefully examined the thundering token and saluted away. A captain stepped out of the crowd, stretched out his hand, and rode a horse to lead the way.

Lei Ming frowned slightly and followed.

The captain of the cavalry changed directions several times in succession, walked for half a moment, turned a small col, and stopped in a wide small basin. Slightly hugging his chest and saluting, he turned the horse's head and returned.

"What does he mean, my lord?" muttered Fafer dissatisfied.

Lei Ming raised his chin slightly, and a pyramid-shaped six-story building was erected in the center of the basin, with more than 200 chairs placed from top to bottom. The building is surrounded by four long pergolas on which thousands of nobles sit.

Fafer's eyes bulged, his mouth moved, and he couldn't say a word for a while.

Lei Ming rolled over and dismounted in front of the building, waved his sleeves, strode up, found his place at the end of the second floor, and sat upright.

"Viscount Thundering, you are the last to arrive this time, and even the representative of the Grand Duchess is here. "The nobleman who has been friends for generations, Viscount Lars looked up at the fifth layer and gestured.

Alva seemed to feel something, and suddenly looked back, met the thunderous eyes that almost breathed fire. Sharp eyes converged, smiled, and hurriedly turned his head.

Lei Ming shook his head, withdrew his gaze, and asked with a smile: "Viscount Lars, have you been here for a long time?

"I don't know, I don't think anyone knows what's going on in the king's head. Lars shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently, "Maybe it's too boring and wants to change the way you hunt?"

Lei Ming keenly felt that a malicious look swept over him above his head, and he raised his head quietly, just in time to see Hebrew's gloomy face. He seemed to realize something, a trace of astonishment flashed on his face, and then he changed to a sincere smile and nodded in acknowledgment.

Lei Ming got up and hugged his chest in return, and after sitting down, his index finger unconsciously tapped on the table, and his brows furrowed tightly.

"You know the Hebrew Earl? I heard that this man is a good man, very kind. Lars touched his arm lightly and said enviously.

"It's also the first time I've met him. Lei Ming smiled and shook his head, looking thoughtful. "What do you know about the Hebrew Earl? ”

Lars touched his chin and said, "Actually, I don't know much about it, but I've heard other nobles occasionally mention it, and most of them are some kind and kind compliments. In addition, this earl was known as the 'good old man' among the nobility. How, maybe the gods know. ”

The earth shook slightly, a fierce sound of horses' hooves sounded, and hundreds of cavalry stopped neatly a hundred meters away, and the movement and stillness changed extremely naturally, as if one person and one horse.

"Are you all here?" King Aubrey, dressed in dark gold chain mail and a silver cloak, turned over and dismounted, and sat down on the sixth throne. Looking forward to it, don't be angry and self-threatening. He swept the thunder and said with a smile: "Viscount Grant, you have made all the nobles wait for a long time!"

Lei Ming stood up, hugged his chest and bent over, and said apologetically: "Your Majesty, I'm sorry, I met a pirate on a ship and was delayed for a few days. ”

Aubrey waved his hand, and said indifferently: "It's okay, just because you gave me a bottle of red wine worth a hundred gold coins, it is worthy of forgiveness, this is the most expensive gift I have received from this year's hunting." ”

Lei Ming felt hundreds of eyes staring at him with hatred, and the pain behind him was scorching. Although I had expected it in my heart, it was inevitable that my scalp would tingle when I encountered it. "I ......"

"Viscount Lei Ming will succeed to the title this year, and of course I want to give a good gift for the first time. The Hebrew Count argued kindly. "Am I right?"

The thunderous words came to his mouth and he swallowed them back, his temples throbbed violently, and he sat back in his chair without saying a word of relief.

"Now that everyone is here, let's get down to business. In view of the rampant piracy, I, Newgate XXII, Aubrey Newgate, decided to send the First and Third Fleets to encircle and suppress the pirates. Aubrey's sharp eyes swept around, and he exclaimed, "But these are not enough to deal with all the pirates, and the help of the nobles is needed." ”

The nobles of the fiefdom on the stage looked at each other, and no one took the initiative to speak. The aristocrats in the audience had nothing to do with themselves, sitting quietly in the pergola and watching the excitement, and the scene was cold for a while.

"Your Majesty, it seems that Viscount Thundering came by boat. Hebrew stood up and saluted, and said kindly, "For the sake of the kingdom, I believe he will be willing to help." ”

"Viscount Thundering, did you offend that guy, why do you always target you?" asked Lars, puzzled.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Lei Ming stood up calmly, secretly glanced at Alva, and saluted: "Your Majesty, I am willing to donate 4 medium-sized warships. ”

"Okay, that's what the nobles of the kingdom look like. Aubrey's gaze swept over the nobles present and exclaimed in praise.

Alva sighed, he should have known that he should have informed this boy, the beauty had made a mistake! He scratched at his messy hair, got up and said, "On behalf of Archduke Catherine, I donate two large warships. ”

The five marquis glanced at each other and said helplessly, "We are willing to donate a large warship each." ”

The Hebrew Earl's face turned iron-blue, and his gaze at Lei Ming seemed to be about to erupt into fire, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I am willing to donate ten medium-sized warships. ”

Aubre's color remained unchanged, and his heart was overjoyed. Without spending a single gold coin to form the Fifth Fleet, which king in the past has ever done it? If it weren't for the fact that Zuxun's territory could not be rewarded, he would have been eager to reward Lei Ming with a hundred square kilometers of land. Aubrey rolled his eyes and whispered an order to the attendant.

In a moment, the attendant presented a new will. He glanced at it, nodded in satisfaction, and stamped it. "Lei Ming, with this will, as long as your territory reaches 2,000 square kilometers, you will be promoted to earl immediately. ”

In the midst of all the nobles' surprise, disdain, and sneer, Lei Ming respectfully took it.

"Congratulations! Hebrew forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and said kindly.

"And thank you to the Hebrew Earl, if it weren't for you, how could Your Majesty reward me?" The few that remain, not as glaring as they used to be.

"Let's not forget tomorrow's auction, okay, that's it!. Aubrey waved his hand and strode away.
