006. Forged letters

The next morning, when Oran woke up, Mi'er was not at her bedside.

Before the maid is clearly instructed by the master, she is still just a maid, this is the identity law of this era, don't think about easily overstepping the rules.

Oran got up and shouted, Mi'er, who was a personal maid, was already waiting outside, and immediately went in to help change clothes and wipe her face.

At the beginning of her experience, Mi'er's heart was closer to Oran.

The strength that falls on Oran's body, light and careful.

At this time, the lords of England were far less wealthy than the southern lords, and the clothes they wore were not as good as those of the Frankish nobles, and they needed the joint efforts of many people to complete.

Mi'er alone could help Orlan finish grooming, and there was an older old maid with a young girl beside her.

The girl was still childish, holding the basin of water, and the old maid helped wipe Oran's body.

In addition to the servants, the older the servants, the better, and they are loyal and careful.

There was nothing wrong with Oran.

In a sense, the women belonged to Oran.

How can the owner be "shy" about the object"

After putting on the underwear and outer clothes, and putting on the last lord's ring, Oran said, "You don't have to do any chores in the future except to serve me." ”

"Yes, sir." Mi'er bowed her head obediently, and a hint of sweetness flashed in her heart.

But the head maid is still the same old maid who has served Orlan and his father for many years.

At noon, Orlan came to the hall to eat, and the nobles he had summoned before were all here.

They are:

Armand. Knight of Oswan, Lord of a Village,

Rad. Knight Walker, Lord of the Two Villages,

Fr. Ulf, Priest in Charge.

All three of them were powerful ministers (chiefs), and each brought a few of their men with them, but they were not allowed to enter the hall.

After the trio entered the hall.

"My lord, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I would like to pay my respects to you."

Bending down and taking off their hats, the three of them saw Oran and said hello in unison.

"Sit down, catch a few fresh fish today, and slaughter a chicken, you can try."

At this time in England, the clergy who believed in the "Illuminati" were far less strict than the clergy in the south.

They drink alcohol and eat meat, and their interpretation of the scriptures is based on their own needs.

During the time of the Roman Empire, the theological scriptures of a high degree of uniformity were gradually localized, and different doctrines preached by local clergy emerged.

Different from the scriptures of the city of Rome.

In the near future, heretical orthodoxy will brew an even greater conflict that will not be lost to the Viking invasion.

……

"Thank the Lord for giving me food, clothing, and ......"

Ulf went to the table, recited a few holy names, and drank the sour wine.

The other two knights also tore the bread with their hands and chewed it loudly after praying.

They behaved rudely, and if it weren't for the distance between the dining table, Orlan would have felt like they would have splattered their saliva.

Ulf's seat was closest to Orlan's table, and Orlan could see clearly that the priest's arm was powerful.

Yes, in addition to chanting scriptures, Ulf was able to judge pagans.

More than sixty years ago, a shipwreck brought a group of lost Vikings to a seaside town in the south of England.

Hungry wolves enter the flock, wealth blinds thieves, and commits terrible sins.

The history of England, when the monastery was massacred by the Vikings, was robbed by these Vikings, and now even the priests have turned into a combination of "poetry and sword".

There are many priests who can ride horses and wield swords.

Today is the first time that Orlan has summoned a meeting of the nobles in his domain since he became the new baron.

His eyes then turned to Armand.

The man's life was in his mind.

The Knight of Armand was the third son of a certain minor aristocratic family, born in the south of England, served as a servant of three knights, and at the age of twenty-two came to the "Northumbria" to participate in a noble tournament, and was defeated by Oran's father.

But courage was appreciated, and he became a member of the Vijay family, and ten years passed, fought valiantly, becoming the leading knight who ruled the village of a hundred people.

"Bless your lords with this cup of wine, praise the Lord, and may the Lord bless you and make you free from sickness and disaster."

Armand knows who has given him the position today, so his attitude has always been very respectful.

Ladd on the side, as the lord of the two villages, is also a knight with a timid personality.

The status is higher than that of Armand because his family is an old man who has served the Vijay family for generations, starting with his grandfather, who was the knightly servant of Ollan's grandfather.

Knight Ladd also took a drink and expressed his blessing for Oran's recovery.

"Drink."

Orlan waved his hand, indicating that he was not fit to use excessive drinks.

Father Ulf also raised his glass and drank it down, saying, "What about Durham County's No. 1 Warrior (Thorge)?" Didn't arrive?"

Orlan put down his food, wiped his fingers, and sighed, "Ladies and gentlemen, something unfortunate happened yesterday when our warrior Thorge tried to assassinate me. ”

When the three people present heard this, they looked at each other, and the glasses full of wine stopped in the air.

Then Thorge's son Gedor came out, and Nanding followed behind him in case he made a counterattack against Orlan.

"Guys, let me explain."

In the morning, Gedo was fed a small amount of "poppy wine", a medicine used by doctors to treat body pain, and although his body did not pass out, it was difficult to exert his strength.

After Gedo sat down at the table, he explained to everyone with a sad face.

To the effect that his father Thorge had betrayed the lord Oran, Gedor took out a copy of the Vikings' epistle to his father Thorge, in which he praised the greatness of the god Odin.

Disloyalty to the lord, betrayal of the faith, and even a few days ago, Orlan fell into a coma and counted it on Thorge.

Father Ulf was incredulous at first, but in the end, he was skeptical.

"Show me."

Ulf took the letter and looked at the text.

When he was thirteen years old, he was still a fisherman, and he was captured by a small group of Vikings.

He relied on "false conversion and inner repentance" to save this small life.

Three years later, he served as Viking cannon fodder and re-set foot on English soil to commit small looting.

Later, the Vikings failed, giving Ulf the opportunity to return to his homeland.

He hid away from the unbearable past of surrendering to the infidels and portrayed himself as a teenage hero who fought against the Vikings.

As a result, he was received by an Archbishop of England and allowed him to study in the Church.

"Uh......h Click...... Rub ......"

Ulf read the letter, uttering syllables (Viking) that only Orlan understood.

The Vikings used a type of alphabet called "rune".

These letters are long lines, and the letters are very similar to each other, and they have no aesthetic sense, and are ridiculed by the Franks as barbarian language.

Ulf knew a lot of rune characters, and finally put down the leather paper, and said with a sad face, "Our warriors have changed to foreign gods!"

The other two, Armand. Knights of Oswan and Rad. Knight Walker, who doesn't recognize his native language, doesn't need to read it.

The letter was forged by Oran, a "scholar" who had given him a great talent for writing and language, and for sixteen years he had learned native English, Frankish, Latin, and Viking.

In this day and age, language is extremely important.

Different regions, different cultures and customs, and monarchs who did not know the language of the new conquest, had to delegate rule, and it took a long time to stabilize the situation.

There is no lingua franca on the continent, only a relatively strong language.

English to the Saxon descendants of the island, Frankish to southern England and the Frankish as a powerful neighbor.

Latin allowed him to read the scriptures, communicate with the clergy and, if given the opportunity in the future, with the nobles of the "Eastern Romans".

Or the merchant group trades and communicates, and the Viking language is used to deal with bad neighbors.

Orlan had enough of these four gates for him to use on millions of square kilometers of land.
