Chapter Forty-Four: Ilea's New Nickname
Before Li Yu could speak, the female lord had already sneered, "What kind of sweet dreams are you doing?" Let's not talk about whether we have so much dragon blood, you yourself said that this thing is very popular in the royal capital, why should we pay you such a large sum of money for nothing. ”
"Because you're going to need my friendship." Geoff said confidently.
Miss Rabbit was amused by him, "Are you drinking too much wine and not being sober?" The money has been blackmailed to my head, and you can inquire in the West to find out who has taken advantage of me? No, ask your cousin Leo.
"I don't care what your status is in the king, how much backer you have behind it, this is the western realm, and your little tricks are not easy to use."
"You're right, but I can still help in the royal capital."
"I'm not going to the royal capital," Miss Rabbit pouted, "and the western realm is fine." ”
"Not necessarily, as the saying goes, the world is unpredictable." "Your Majesty is going to hold a tournament in the royal capital in three months' time," said Geoff, "and everyone can sign up, and those who rank high will be rewarded handsomely, and the champion will receive land and a large sum of money." ”
Fausto frowned, "If I'm not mistaken, the Empire hasn't held a national tournament for nearly four hundred years. ”
"Yes, my great-grandfather Andrea, the lion, thought it was too bloody, so he ordered it to be stopped, but now His Majesty feels that the noble men of the empire lack blood, so he decided to reopen the tournament and select the true warriors from among them."
"But what does this have to do with me?" Although the female lord is also very interested in land and money, she is self-aware.
Although the family now has some masters, such as Thomas, the current captain of the guard, and Juan, who was given the status of knight because of his outstanding performance in the dragon hunt, the older generation also has Miss Rabbit's own guardian knight Alfred, and Alfred's nemesis Pablo has a violent temper......
But these people are not so outstanding in the territory of the empire as a whole.
And the competition is very dangerous, Yin Leia's father Bloody Eye Ruth died in the competition with other people, and the real competition, everyone uses real guys.
Although there are a few rules up to the end, it is difficult to control the strength unless there is a big difference in strength.
Therefore, there have been many accidents in every martial arts competition in the past, and it is normal to miss arms and legs after fighting, and there are many people who die directly in the martial arts field.
This is also the reason why Renshi wants to stop holding the martial arts conference.
However, there were many nobles in the empire who were keen on this ancient game, especially in the relatively peaceful era, and it seemed to be the only place where men could show their prowess and chase honor.
But the female lord obviously did not have this habit, and she did not want to send her men to death.
However, after that, she listened to Geoff, "Of course it matters, the first thing that comes to your Majesty's mind after making up his mind to hold a jousting tournament is you."
He shouted at the Imperial Council, how could the tournament be without that Yin Leia of the Tagris family (His Majesty the Emperor obviously misremembered Miss Rabbit's surname), go and find me the dragon slayer heroine! Let the big guys see what a real warrior is! That's why I'm here now. ”
???!
"Your Majesty wants me to go to the tournament in person?" The female lord was dumbfounded.
"Apparently our Imperial Majesty has some misunderstanding about you." Geoff said, "But this can't be all blamed on Your Majesty, because in those stories and legends in the past, dragon slaying heroes should be the kind of people with big shoulders and round waists, and they are very capable of fighting at a glance."
"In addition, the new drama "Death of the Dragon" by Love and Mead has also played a certain role in promoting it, I heard that the troupe owner Timothy knows you, and the actress he has hired to play you is very burly, a head taller than the average man.
"When you stand on the stage, it's like a hill, so everyone also affectionately calls her Roshan, and when you arrive at the royal capital, if someone on the road calls you that, please don't be surprised."
"That dead dwarf is definitely taking revenge on me! Revenge on me for forcing him to act in a new play!
! The female lord was furious.
And what kind of Roshan, although this name sounds quite domineering, but it is 108,000 miles away from her.
It took a while for Yin Leia to calm down the rush that wanted to grab Timothy and stew the turnips, and said to Geoff.
"Now that you have seen me, you should know that all the rumors about me before are untrue, please go back and tell Your Majesty, I will not go to his martial arts competition."
"It's not that simple." Geoff shook his head and said, "Your Majesty is a very face-loving person, he boasted about you in front of many people a few days ago, saying that you are a pillar of the empire, and you have the courage of ten thousand people, and said that he would recruit you to lead the imperial guards, although it was when he drank too much, but it is enough to show how much Your Majesty likes you." ”

"Not to mention that he heard the news of your successful dragon slaying before, and when he was excited, he also gave you his sword and beast claws, if you don't go, he won't be able to get off the stage."
As he said this, there was a hint of schadenfreude on his face.
“…………”
He paused deliberately for a moment to make the female lord fully aware of his situation, and then changed the conversation again, "But this matter is not without a solution. My sister has a good relationship with Princess Errani, and I can say that the princess will help you. ”
"How can you help me?"
"Let's just say that you are excellent at martial arts, and participating in the martial arts competition is too unfair to other contestants, so it is better to change to a judge, of course, this requires you to pay a small price."
"You're blackmail!" The female lord gritted her teeth.
Geoff did not deny it, "Compared with life, money is only something outside the body, and I don't need to tell you how dangerous the tournament is, besides, because of His Majesty's praise for you and your special status, many players are eyeing you." ”
"No one can accept the shame of being defeated by a woman, so they will definitely give it their all when they come up with you."
"Then I'll just surrender."
"What stupid things are you talking about, even if you ignore the honor of the Arias family, you can't embarrass Your Majesty."
Miss Rabbit's face was very ugly at this time.
At this time, Li Yu, who had been silent before, suddenly spoke, "I can give you three hundred pieces of dragon blood, but you have to ensure Yin Leiya's safety in the royal capital." ”
Geoff was overjoyed when he heard this, "Okay, well, as long as there is a tide, I will definitely try to help you as much as possible." ”
"Not as much as possible, you have to do what you do as a judge, and I will give you the medicine."
