"It's barbaric." The housekeeper said, "We are going to elect the next head of the family, not a warrior, and wisdom is far more important than force." ”

"I'm not asking you, I'm informing." Harman Road.

"According to the ancient tradition of the West, if someone in the immediate family is dissatisfied with the choice of an heir, they can launch a jousting challenge."

"You made it up, didn't I know there was such a tradition in the West?" Garin frowned.

"Uh...... There seems to be a tradition of deciding the heir through a contest challenge. ”

The one who spoke was the oldest direct member of the Emmanuel family, an uncle of Theodosius.

He looked a little hesitant, as if trying to recall, "Long before the Enriquez family ruled the West, the Komans were the masters of this land, and this tradition should have been established by them. ”

"Are you serious?" The housekeeper looked at Harman, "The Komen people perished thousands of years ago, and no one cares what their traditions are. ”

"But we have their blood in our veins," says Harman, "though only a small part of it, but tradition is tradition...... Needed to be respected."

"The Koman people also like to dance bare-buttocks, and all the brothers in the family share a wife, why don't you respect these traditions?" Garin sneered.

There was a flash of anger in Halman's eyes, but he eventually held him down.

"If I win the competition, I will admit that Angela is the head of the Emmanuel family."

Rafal said, "Count me in." ”

"Do you really want to compete with your sister?" The housekeeper's brow furrowed tighter and tighter.

"If she doesn't want to fight, she can choose to give up her inheritance."

"It's ridiculous to challenge a tradition from thousands of years ago." Garin said, "There's no way Miss Angela would agree. ”

"And how are you going to solve the current situation?" Rafal asked.

"Vote." The housekeeper said, "Since you are unwilling to admit Lord Theodosi's suicide note, then use voting to determine who will be the next head of the family, and all direct members of the family will have one vote per person, which is fair and just." ”

"Does your fairness mean that you have already spent a lot of money to buy off more than half of the voters?" Harman sneered and reiterated.

"The competition is the only solution I can accept."

"I also think the competition is good."

A voice rang out from outside the door, and then a tall figure walked in from outside.

When they saw the appearance of the person who came, everyone in the hall was stunned, and then they all got up from their chairs.

The person who came was the cousin of the current head of the Figuerala family, Huls, "Bitter Winter" Gwen.

Before leaving the West, Hulse appointed his cousin as the acting lord of Rock Snow City, which meant that he entrusted the entire Westland, including the Figuerola family, to the latter.

Now there is no one in this land who is more noble than Gewen's status, so when Gewen appears, people stand up and salute.

And this acting city lord of Rock Snow City seemed to be in a good mood today, and there was a rare smile on his face that had been stiff.

He strode into the room, took off his mink cloak, handed it to the waiter behind him, and then said to the housekeeper.

"I hope I didn't bother you, I just came out to relax, and I happened to walk near Blackstone City, and when I heard that there was a bustle in the city, I came over to take a look, you don't have to worry about me."

Although Gwen said it lightly, no one was naïve enough to think that he really just came here by accident.

As the acting city lord of Rock Snow City, he didn't stay well in Rock Snow City, and suddenly appeared here, obviously he was also very concerned about the outcome of this negotiation.

This is not surprising, the Emmanuel family is the richest aristocratic family in the West, and the election of the next head of the family is bound to involve many interests.

However, Ge Wen's appearance in person this time still surprised many people.

The housekeeper glanced at Harman not far away, he didn't have many allies this time, but he always showed confidence, and his face was even more happy after Gwen appeared.

Obviously, that's what he's really really up to.

And although Ge Wen said that he didn't need to care about him, he had already expressed his position as soon as he entered the door, and the sentence "I also think the competition is good" was heard by everyone.

And the Emanuel family, as vassals of the Figuerola family, especially after the betrayal of the Marquis of Cullen by Ilkander, urgently needed to show their loyalty, which made it impossible for them to ignore Gwen's opinion now.

Garin's face was a little ugly, but it had come to this, and she finally had to accept such a result, and she took a deep breath and said.

"In the case of a joust, Miss Angela will use the Acting Knight to play."

"Yes." Harman nodded, and then added, "But the choice of a proxy knight can only be limited to the family. ”

Although he didn't look at Miss Rabbit when he said this, everyone knew who he was targeting.

If the champion of the tournament is allowed to participate in the battle, then everyone will still fart and just wash and sleep.

"Why?" The housekeeper asked rhetorically, "I don't remember that there are such restrictions on choosing a proxy knight." ”

"Normally no, but choosing the head of the family is an internal matter of the family, and it is better for someone within the family to settle it, do you say, Miss Garin?"

The housekeeper heard the threat in Harman's words, and he did have the capital to threaten.

Because Gwen was sitting right behind him.

But if she agreed, she couldn't find any master who could win against Ge Wen for a while, and she couldn't help but fall into a dilemma.

Ilea thought that she had collected so much money, and it was not good to just sit and watch the excitement like this, and it just so happened that her hands were a little itchy at this moment.

So he coughed lightly and took the initiative to speak, "Someone has challenged Miss Angela, and according to the rules of the movie, I can play for her." ”

"Movie-watching? What is that?! Ge Wen frowned when he heard this.

"I founded an organization that aims to help each other against strong enemies." Miss Rabbit explained, "The movie viewing party was mainly set up to guard against the dwarves on the other side of Dragonspine Mountain, as well as those of the Wing Clan......

As a result, before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Gewen, "I don't see the significance of its existence...... What you say, the Figuerola family can do too. ”

Miss Rabbit originally wanted to say that if the Figuerola family was really so good, they would not have been defeated by those dwarves before, and the body of Marquis Cullen was still retrieved by her, but after thinking about it, she held back.

These words are a bit too big for a vassal.

The female lord felt that she had really grown.

Seeing that Ilea was no longer speaking, Ge Wen said with satisfaction, "Then let's do it, Miss Angela's acting knight is chosen within the family." ”
