Why did Li Xie suddenly be promoted to Grand Duke?

Of course, this is what Mercedes VII meant, but this time he is not as obstinate as the last time he promoted the Duke of Rhine, and he does not let people know why!

This time, he invited several powerful people in the court and a group of nobles who may not have high titles but have a long family history to discuss together.

And to promote Li Xie to duke, no one objected!

The reason is that Li Xie's credit this time is really greater than the sky!

Duke Avril became a holy priest, and this matter was an earth-shattering event for the Tudor dynasty and even the continent of the gods! Because there are currently only seven holy sacrifices in the continent of the gods! And in the history of the Tudor dynasty, there is not a single holy sacrifice! Having a holy sacrifice is equivalent to having the hope of the rise of the dynasty!

Since Duke Avril was in retreat, and the holy sacrifices no longer needed the rewards of these dynasties, Mercedes VII threw all the credit to Li Xie!

And Li Xie can also accept it justifiably!

Why?

He is the host of Duke Avril's promotion ceremony! Although those who have checked Li Xie's details know that in their eyes, this "countryman" who "has no magic and fighting spirit fluctuations" is not even a "sacrifice"! Duke Avril's promotion is entirely because of Duke Avril's own piety, and has nothing to do with the evil earl, but who called Li Xie the host of the promotion ceremony? Nominally, he is the only person who helped Duke Avril advance!

Nominally, he helped create the first Holy Sacrifice of the Tudor Dynasty and the eighth Holy Sacrifice of the Continent of the Gods!

Although everyone knew that Li Xie "didn't help", however, when Mercedes VII mentioned the nominal credit, no one could refute it!

As a result, this great credit fell on Li Xie's head like a pie in the sky, and according to the size of the merit and Li Xie's identity as the heir of the Lamborghini family, our evil count was designated as the Grand Duke of the Tudor dynasty and the third Grand Duke from a small earl!

Master Sleep said: Happiness always brings good luck!

In this regard, Li Xie just smiled crookedly, sighing at the cuteness of Mercedes VII.

Tudor Palace, Borance Sideshow.

This place was dedicated to entertaining dignitaries of the dynasty and holding important banquets.

Inside is a spacious lobby that can accommodate up to 3,000 people. At the very back of the lobby is His Majesty's golden chair, flanked by long tables for food and drinks. Outside the long table are chairs. A large area in the middle is covered with a red carpet. Dance on it or invite a troupe to perform. The lobby has three floors, and the upper two floors also provide some seating for the nobles to enjoy the performances below.

At this moment, in the side hall of Borans, the vast majority of the nobles with a bit of status in Yanjing have gathered, all of them have brought their families, drinking, eating, chatting, and the banquet has not yet begun, for these nobles, communication at this moment is very important, maybe a single business can be negotiated before the banquet, or a family affair can be set!

"Your Majesty has arrived!" shouted El Go, the Interior Officer, as Mercedes VII strode out of one of the inner doors.

"Greetings to Your Majesty, may your Majesty live long live Hurrah Hooray. "Now this etiquette has become a regular surname etiquette for the Tudor Dynasty and even the Continent of the Gods to meet the monarch.

"Rise up, Count Evil?"

El leaned over and said, "Your Majesty, the evil earl will be here soon." ”

Mercedes VII nodded: "In this case, just wait for our evil count, you are free." ”

Outside the palace, a carriage was roaring and galloping, the driver was Kano, and inside the carriage was Li Xie and the little cat meowing in a circle of sleep on top of Li Xie's head.

"Damn, Kano, hurry up!" Li Xie was very depressed now!

The time El explained was eight o'clock in the evening, and Li Xie went out an hour early, and then he found out the problem, it took an hour and a half from the Earl Evil's manor to the palace!

I even neglected the time on the road!

"My lord, these ordinary horses can't be faster, if you are in a hurry, you might as well let Kano carry you. ”

"Forget it, anyway, the big guys are the last to appear, so I'm afraid that I will steal the limelight from Your Majesty, and it's not good to make him unhappy, after all, our Majesty still takes care of us. By the way, you have the space ring I gave you, right?"

"My lord, take it!" Kano looked at the gem-encrusted white gold ring on his little finger, and his heart was a little excited. I've only been with the Evil Earl for more than two months, and my net worth is already 100,000 gold coins, and that's not all, the Evil Count gave me a space ring again, which is a symbol of dignity, not ordinary people can have a space ring!

"Well, I'll fill me with more wine later!" Li Xie is trying his best to get the sake of good wine! Who told him to raise a little cat that he spoiled?

Ordinary wine refuses to drink, and when it is hungry, it scratches Li Xie and forces Li Xie to give it good wine!

"My lord, Kano can't attend the banquet, he wants the title of earl or above. ”

"When I officially become the Grand Duke, I will give you the title and surname and let you be promoted to the earl!"

"Your Excellency!" Kano was so excited that he didn't know what to say!

According to Tudor rules, nobles could give slave surnames or non-slave retinue titles, and giving slaves could leave slave status and even have the opportunity to become nobles. And giving the title and surname can make the retinue promote to nobles, and generally can only be promoted to viscount, but the grand duke of the dynasty can give two counts.

As soon as Li Xie said this, he was going to give Kano one of the earls!

Suddenly he can become an earl, and his status has been upgraded by another notch, no wonder Kano is so excited, and for Li Xie, he just said casually, just send it casually, he is actually quite distressed now, sighed and said: "Hey, Meow Meow tastes so good, a bottle of wine costs at least a hundred gold coins, but Meow Meow can't still pour a thousand cups! My deposit, no, I have to find a way to collect some more money, anyway, I can't starve my pet." ”

The kitten on top of Li Xie's head raised its head and was about to express its dissatisfaction with Li Xie's hair scratching, but after hearing this, the kitten squinted its eyes again and fell asleep, and it was its luck to follow a good owner.

Finally arrived at the side hall of Borance, Li Xie and Kano hurriedly ran into the hall.

Li Xie was anxious, because he was afraid that he would be unhappy if he asked Mercedes VII to wait, after all, Mercedes VII was good to Li Xie, and Li Xie also began to take into account his Majesty's feelings.

However, it is clear that Li Xie's worries are unnecessary. The nobles of Yanjing often held banquets, and the leisurely life made them accustomed to this kind of waiting, and Mercedes VII did not care, drinking wine and chatting with his left and right.

There were guards and servants waiting outside the lobby, and when they saw Li Xie coming, they shouted.

The nobles in the hall all stopped what they were doing, and they all looked at the door, Li Xie walked into the hall, and the closest minister of Warcraft, Scammod Osri, greeted him, and bowed when he met: "Congratulations to the evil earl, I will change my name to the evil duke in a while!"

After speaking, Scammod looked at the top of Li Xie's head, and said with a smile: "Evil Earl is so tasteful! This fur hat should be the fur of the third-order demonic beast blue light mouse unique to the Western 'Destan Dynasty', which is soft and shiny, and ...... to the touch."

Before Scammod finished speaking, the meow on Li Xie's head had already raised his head, and his blue eyes were full of dissatisfaction: he dared to say that this cat was a mouse!

"Oh...... The god of the earth is above!Beast of Doom!" The smile on Scammod's face froze, and he immediately changed to a ghostly look, his hand pointed straight at the top of Li Xie's head, and his eyes rolled up, and he fell straight down!

Beast of Doom!

Scammod's voice, which was raised by a few pitches due to fright, spread throughout the entire hall, from His Majesty and nobles to his family and slaves, all of whom looked at Li Xie's head in unison!

The lobby, which was supposed to be full of music and conversation, suddenly fell silent.

The corners of Li Xie's mouth twitched, he forgot that the cat on his head was still a beast of doom in the eyes of others! Thinking of the chaos that might happen next, the corners of this guy's mouth were full of horsepower.

Perhaps feeling everyone's gaze, the kitten raised its head, its blue eyes looked around, and its little mouth opened: "Meow ......"

"Ahh

"The god of the earth is above!

"Damn! I'm going to be out of luck!"

"Your Majesty, retreat! Escort! Escort!"

"The beast of doom is a ninth-order demonic beast! everyone be careful!

A brocade-robed man roared and jumped in front of everyone, while all the nobles had already shrunk into the lobby, trembling one by one, it was really like a hell!

The big man shouted, there was a golden light lingering around his body, and his momentum rose outside his body, and a strong wind blew one meter outside his body!

Fighting spirit!

This big man is a tenth-order sword saint!

"Don't be afraid, kill the beast of bad luck, and the bad luck will be eliminated!" said the Great Han to Li Xie.

Li Xie's forehead was already in a cold sweat, the momentum of the tenth-order sword saint was as sharp as a sharp blade, stabbing Li Xie uncomfortable, and he was afraid that the tenth-order sword saint would make a move, although the meow on his head was a ninth-order demonic beast, but it was only a child, and the tenth-order sword saint could still have a life?

Li Xie remembered that there was no such thing as a tenth-order sword saint in the Tudor Dynasty, at least, there had never been a tenth-order sword saint visiting his evil earl's mansion!

Mercedes VII over there also looked anxious and shouted: "Fandy, be careful not to hurt the evil count! Also, be sure to kill the beast of doom and help the evil count to relieve his bad luck!"

Ooh!

You're also afraid!

Li Xie was helpless, and hurriedly said: "Don't be afraid, it's not a beast of doom!"

Li Xie can understand the reaction of this group of people, and he has long expected the reaction of this group of people, after all, in the eyes of people from the other world, cats are like ghosts on the earth, for example, if you talk to someone, there is a ghost standing next to that person, can it not scare you half to death?

It's just that Li Xie doesn't know that killing the beast of bad luck can eliminate bad luck! Maybe it's because Kano isn't strong enough, so he didn't say this, but now that the tenth-order sword saint is present, one is not good, Meow Meow has to hang up!

Kano behind Li Xie also hurriedly helped: "Don't be afraid, this is the pet of our earl, not a beast of doom! The beast of doom has golden horns on its head, this one doesn't, it's a lucky beast!"

Scammod, the minister of Warcraft who had been fainting on the ground, suddenly got up, rubbed his buttocks and shrank into the lobby, then stepped back and shouted: "What a lucky beast! It is a beast of doom! I can't be mistaken! The ninth-order beast of doom has been unlucky for three years by it, and unlucky for ten years by its glare, and if you are touched by it, you will be killed by bad luck one after another! Evil Earl, you must kill the beast of doom in order to lift the curse of you touching it!"

Looking at the frightened crowd, Li Xie deeply sighed at the power of the older generation to tell ghost stories to scare children! And seeing that their fear has been deep-rooted, coupled with the testimony of the Minister of Warcraft, who is engaged in Warcraft, Li Xie can't blur the appearance of the Doom Beast with some details, now, what should I do?

Kano was afraid that Li Xie would be injured by the tenth-order sword saint, so he had already protected Li Xie and said hurriedly: "What are you afraid of! It's really not a beast of bad luck, otherwise, my family would have been doomed a long time ago, and you can still be so successful today!"

Kano's words made Li Xie have a flash of inspiration in his mind, and he suddenly burst out laughing and shouted, "That's right! The cat on my head is indeed a beast of doom!"

Ho!

These words startled Kano!
