After suffering through Earl Pierce's "political lesson", all the nobles, including Hudson, have a feeling of the aftermath of the disaster.

The Governor knew so much that this guy was still open-mouthed, and he said it directly in front of everyone without any scruples.

If it weren't for the disparity in identity and the big gap in strength, it is estimated that everyone would be tempted to kill people.

At first, it was fine, it was nothing more than naming and criticizing, as long as the skin was thick enough, then everything was not a problem.

But as the spray squirted, the style of painting began to change, and gradually evolved into a big exposure of black history, which made many nobles die directly on the spot.

Including Hudson's private transactions with his neighbors, although he did not dig into the specifics directly, the facts of the transactions were exposed.

Fortunately, Hudson has always been relatively peaceful, just making a few deals in a low-key manner, and there is not much black history to dig up.

At the scene of the thunderstorm, there were enough hot spots to attract people's attention, and this little thing was quickly ignored by everyone.

Facts have once again proved that the level of morality depends on the foil of peers. Compared with the thunderous aristocracy, doing business with neighbors is nothing at all, even if the goods traded are a little special.

The local nobles are tandem to blockade the nobles of the northern frontier, but Hudson has not joined in! If you don't join, you can't talk about betrayal.

As a member of the neutral camp, it is reasonably acceptable to buy and sell goods to both camps.

The aristocracy of the thunderstorm is different, it is the lower limit of all kinds of shows. Brutality, greed, and expropriation can all be ignored.

Pit teammates, it's just a regular operation; Sowing discord and asking allies to help with thunder is only an ordinary level.

Secretly colluding with the enemy to betray teammates, or even bribing the enemy to attack allies, completely undisciplined, has really happened.

The scandals that can't be put on the table have all been exposed, and it has become inevitable that you will be ruined.

It can be said that Earl Pierce's elite blow poked many people in the soft underbelly. Whether it can be relieved or not depends on their respective means.

But other problems can be solved, but the loss of reputation, that is really gone.

Betrayal, there have never been zero and countless times. Morality can be avoided, but if you violate the rules of the game, you will inevitably be attacked by the rules.

As the overlord who has been deeply involved in the southeastern provinces for hundreds of years, it is not surprising that Earl Pierce was able to grasp this information. The only thing that puzzled Hudson was why these cards, which could have been used as bargaining chips to blackmail the nobles for their own use, were played all at once.

He didn't think that Earl Pierce was really jealous and hateful, and couldn't allow such bad things to happen in his own jurisdiction. If you really want to stop it, you can stop it from the beginning.

"Looks like we'll be able to stop for a while. Hudson, you've been having a good time lately! ”

Hearing this familiar voice, Hudson suddenly became enlightened. "Stop for a while", Earl Pierce wants the land of the two counties to be stable for a while.

If this is the motive, then everything makes sense. The nobles who had a little strength in the two counties were basically beaten all over again.

One by one, more or less, there is a period of inglorious black history exposed. Just dealing with your own bad things is enough for everyone to be busy for a while, and naturally they don't have the energy to do other things.

It's just that this kind of operation always gives Hudson a sense of familiarity, as if he has seen it somewhere.

After a moment's hesitation, Hudson suddenly remembered. Where it's just familiar, it's clear that it's copying homework.

Similar routines are all left over from the royal capital, His Majesty Caesar III. When he first succeeded to the throne, the nobles also made a fuss, and several times of appeasement did not work.

Annoyed and angry, Caesar III simply overturned the table and put the black history of the struggle of the nobles directly on the table.

The result is naturally self-evident, and a group of nobles were beaten, and they were all busy wiping their buttocks, so they naturally didn't care about blocking the king.

Although the symptoms are not cured, the method works. The best way to stabilize the situation in a short period of time is to leave the parties to their own devices.

"Uncle Chels, I'll go first if I have something to do."

spoke, and without waiting for Baron Chels to stay, Hudson turned around and left.

Originally, everyone's relationship was good, but at a banquet, the relationship between the two parties changed suddenly, revealing that he wanted to marry his daughter to Hudson.

The marriage of the nobles, Hudson had already prepared for it. But even if you want to make a deal with marriage, you have to marry at least an eye-catching person!

It's a pity that Chels's five big and three rough daughters are completely inconsistent with Hudson's aesthetics, so they can only hide first.

This kind of trouble, after Hudson's territory was on the right track, became endless. There are no less than ten nobles who have revealed their intention to marry.

Almost all of them are of the same grade, and all of them follow the principle of being the right person. There is no dragon and phoenix, and no princess is hot-headed and favors him as a little baron.

Most of them, Baron Redman is very satisfied, if it weren't for the fact that there are more interested families, he can't make up his mind, and he can't make up his mind, maybe he has already made a decision for Hudson.

Hudson, who received the news, immediately wrote to his father, expressing his strong refusal in earnest words, which temporarily dispelled his dangerous thoughts.

The marriage of the nobility must be cautious, once it is decided, even if you know that there is a pit, you can only jump into it.

It involves two families, and the marriage is a good relationship between two surnames. In order to have a long-term relationship, under normal circumstances, everyone follows the principle of voluntariness.

That kind of forced marriage cannot be said to be completely absent, but it still rarely happens in aristocratic circles.

As for free love, that's just too much of a luxury. Except for a small number of childhood sweethearts who grew up together, it can barely be regarded as free love.

Normal aristocratic marriages first consider status and status, followed by personal ability, moral cultivation, and finally personal will.

Men and women have a very narrow range of mates, and can almost only choose each other within their own family circles.

Generally speaking, if you encounter something that you don't hate, then quickly give it down! Dragging it to the back will only find that the next one is even more difficult to accept.

The story of the prince and Cinderella, the story of the princess and the knight, there is a precondition for having a good father who is a powerful earl.

This is already the bare minimum. If this minimum requirement is met, there will be love, otherwise it will just be a tragedy.

Although the reality is a little harsh, Hudson still understands. In this cruel world, if you want to survive better, you must learn to hold together.

This is true of the minor aristocracy, and it is also true of the great aristocracy. Marriage is undoubtedly the most economical way to consolidate an alliance.

In line with the principle of not suffering losses, the rules of the game are slowly derived.

"Why are you running so fast, even if you have to pay a fine, you won't be in such a hurry!"

Hearing the grumbling behind him, Hudson became more and more depressed. He is just a sledgehammer seller, and he has nothing to do with the scoop opening incident.

But in the final judgment, he was still charged with selling the "murder weapon". The conscience of heaven and earth, the sledgehammer that opened the scoop, he didn't have time to receive a copper coin.

The naked retaliation made Hudson stop thinking about justification. Reason told him that if he didn't have enough strength to try to overturn the decisions of the big guys, it would only make the situation worse.

With a huge fine of three hundred gold coins, he didn't know how many sledgehammers he had to sell before he could earn it back.

thought he would be able to make a fortune, but in the end Hudson reluctantly found that all the profits from selling sledgehammers were fined.

After calming down, Hudson quickly accepted reality. did not carry out any public relations activities, and directly chose to break the bank and avoid disasters, which was regarded as buying advertising space.

At least after the opening incident, all the nobles in the two counties knew that the "Divine Bow Knight" was not only a supernatural archer, but also an arms dealer.

Also affected by the pond fish is the unlucky Baron Sith. Compared to Hudson's fine of three hundred gold coins, his fine amounted to a staggering five hundred gold coins.

It's a pity that Baron Sith doesn't have a sledgehammer to sell, let alone advertising, and all the losses can only be borne by gritting his teeth.

The two pond fish are so miserable, and the parties involved in eucalyptus will not be able to run away. It was not enough to pay for their lives, but the result was similar to the compensation for their lives, and all the participants were sent to the northern frontier.

"All", that's the point. Not only the second-class knight "Joseph" who opened the scoop, but also the other people involved in the brawl were all implicated.

The severity of this punishment is quite staggering. Accomplices and principal offenders enjoy the same treatment, and Earl Pierce tells everyone with practical actions: I am the boss, I am the master!

You must know that the person who died this time was a child of a nobleman in Northern Xinjiang, who ran to the door of the enemy's house and wanted to get out, and the probability would not be much higher than the probability of going out to pick up dragon scales.

It's a little ruthless, but this is indeed a result that is acceptable to all parties except the parties.

In addition to the two unlucky fish who were still indignant, the nobles in the two counties were warned and educated.

The end of the scoop opening incident is just the beginning. The recent fights and brawls that occurred in the city, one of which was counted as one, were all dealt with seriously by Earl Pierce.

"Fine", "Fine", "Re-fine...... All the nobles involved received penalty notices ranging from amount to amount. Unless the fine was to be collected to the Council of Nobles, Hudson would have suspected that the earl was taking advantage of the opportunity to enrich himself.

In just three days, the Governor's Mansion issued fines one after another, and the total amount directly exceeded 30,000 gold coins.

……

In a side courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion, the Sith Baron, who had accumulated a belly of anger, was finally on the verge of exploding.

"Pierce, what the hell is this bastard trying to do? Do you really think that our Felix family is a bully and can be slaughtered by him?

Again and again, again and again ......"

Before he could finish speaking, the old man behind him hurriedly dissuaded: "Young master, you can't talk nonsense about these words, it will be a big trouble for people to hear them!" ”

I really can't talk nonsense, Baron Sith ran to the side courtyard to live in a snail's house, that is because the main courtyard of the city lord's mansion has been given to the governor.

It was not far away, and if it was too loud to reach the ears of the careful-eyed governor, it was not known what would happen next.

Baron Cisse is really bitter, as the worst pond fish of the year in the southeast province, he has endured too much.

In every conflict that took place in the city of Dadir, he was accused by the Governor's Office of "maintaining order is not good", "allowing chaos to occur", and "failing to fulfill the duties of a lord...... and then there is a fine.

Of the more than 30,000 gold coin fines currently determined, Baron Sith alone contributed one-fifth. Although no one said anything in front of him, the hat of "Great Injustice" had been given to him by the nobles.

Especially the younger brothers of the nobles in northern Xinjiang are very dissatisfied with the "steady" shown by the boss in recent days.

The younger brothers wanted him to make trouble, and the local nobles also wanted to see him make trouble. There is no doubt that since everyone wants him to make a fuss, "being steady" is the best choice for Baron Sith.

It seems that it was targeted, but the charges given by the Governor's Office are not unforgiving. If there is a head-on conflict with Governor Pierce, it is Baron Sith himself who suffers in the end.

Looking for an identity backer, it is a pity that these punishments are aimed at his archduke father. Josis was not the son of the Grand Duke of Cavadia and did not enjoy this treatment.

"Whatever he's afraid of, he dares to do it, can he still let people say it? No matter what I do anyway, the end result is the same.

All of them are top-level punishments, and what can be used to play on the topic has been exerted to the extreme by our Governor. ”

Sith said with a sneer.

If it weren't for all of Earl Pierce's targeted actions, all of which were within the scope of the rules, he would have made a fuss a long time ago.

As a second generation, how can he not have a temper. Being able to endure it until now can be regarded as a good heart.

But complaining is complaining, and Baron Sith didn't go to the next door to make a big fuss after all. The cruel reality made him more and more aware of the importance of power.

The current unfair treatment is because the disposal power is in the hands of the other party. Any small problem can be magnified.

"Young Master, our troubles may have just begun. Now it was only the governor who dealt with the conflict in the city, and then the nobles attacked and plundered each other.

Compared with the small things like fights and brawls, the next thing is the big trouble. Although every time we act, there are good reasons, but there are always imperfections.

Any loophole is found out, and the punishment is more serious than it is now. If the governor continues to target us, I am afraid that something serious will happen. ”

It's not the old man's instigation, but his rich life experience tells him that once the superior recognizes the truth, it will be a storm.

"It's too late, Uncle Pheren. Even if we're cautious enough, what about the others?

Some time ago, you don't know how hard they tossed. As long as you want to find faults, there are loopholes everywhere.

With a single hair and a whole body, they have been severely punished, with my current status, can I really sit idly by? ”

Baron Sith said with a depressed face.

When others are the boss, he is also big, but the treatment he enjoys is completely different.

Everyone else is the boss, and they all share the lion's share of the pie in the alliance; And he, the boss, is the biggest thunder in the league.

Maybe there will be great benefits in the future, but in a short period of time, as the nominal boss of the children of the nobles of Northern Xinjiang, it is just a symbol.
