The guards of the gates made the knights of Castel look confused, and some of the younger knights frowned slightly.

They pointed dissatisfiedly in the direction of the departure of the Gaston family convoy and said indignantly:

"Armed knights are not allowed to enter without permission? Then why didn't you check or stop them when they came in?"

The gate guard looked at the knights with disdain and said:

"That's the convoy of Duke Gaston's family, the great nobles of the kingdom, and the carriage is sitting on the heir of the duke's family, Lord Richard, and the escort team is the knights of the Kingdom Guard, of course they can enter freely."

The knights of Castel were still a little unconvinced.

They wanted to say something, but were signaled to be quiet by Baron Chalon.

As a nobleman who has been running with caravans all year round, Baron Chalons knows the rules of the royal capital, and if armed knights want to enter Lutesia, they do need to report in advance and obtain relevant permissions.

I saw him come to the guard, take out a copy of Castel's armed caravan entry document from his bosom, show it to the guards at the city gate, and then say:

"We are the Castels, and this is our instrument of access."

However, the guard only glanced at the paperwork, and then shook his head haughtily:

"This is just a pass for armed caravans, and it may be valid on weekdays, but now that the Central Council is about to be held, and the royal capital is in a special period, all armed caravans are not allowed to enter the city!"

Baron Chalons frowned and repeated:

"We...... It's the Castel family."

He deliberately accentuated the tone of the term Castel.

The guard snorted:

"No matter what your family is, if you want to enter the city, you must either unload all your weapons and equipment and hand them in, or wait for the Central Council to ......."

The guard's words were not finished.

Because just as he was halfway through his speech, he was stopped by another companion beside him.

The companion, who was still holding a bag of Quintana that had just been awarded to the Gaston family's convoy as it passed through the city gates, looked at the paperwork of the Castel convoy in disbelief, looked at a note in the money bag, and quickly whispered a few words in the guard's ear.

The guard's eyes widened as his companion whispered, and his gaze at Castel's team quickly changed.

I saw that his attitude quickly softened, and his appearance that was still high just now suddenly became respectful, and he hurriedly smiled and said to Baron Chalon:

[At present, it is the most complete and best app for listening to books, integrating 4 major speech synthesis engines, over 100 kinds of timbres, and it supports offline reading

Hawkers! Then the guards, who looked down on people, knew our identity, and their attitude reversed in an instant!"

Charlotte, however, only smiled slightly.

She glanced at the two guards at the city gate, and her expression was meaningful:

"Perhaps."

……

Unlike the North Port, which is often expanded and renovated, the architecture of the royal capital of Rutsia looks much more ancient and solemn.

Here, almost every street is paved with blue-gray stone, and most of the streets, except for the main road, are curved and narrow, as if telling ancient stories.

In the city, towering buildings rise from the ground, which are very similar to the Gothic buildings of the Blue Star, and people can't help but look up.

The buildings here are denser, taller, older and more imposing than those of the North Harbor.

The streets were filled with horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians, far more bustling than any city Charlotte had ever seen since her crossing.

Once inside the city, the knights of the convoy did not take their eyes off the surrounding streets.

Even if they have long been accustomed to the prosperity of Beigang, many knights who came to the royal capital for the first time are still shocked by the prosperity of the royal capital.

Just the outer city of Lutesia is no less prosperous than the inner island area of North Port, the wide main roads are a little better, and those narrow streets can even be described as crowded.

If it weren't for the armored knights of the Castel family, many carriages and pedestrians would subconsciously avoid it, otherwise, the convoy might have blocked the road while walking.

This is the case in the outer city, which makes many knights can't help but wonder what the inner city where the palace is located will be like.

However, after Castre's convoy entered the city, it did not immediately go to the inner city of Rutsia, but went straight to the Castel family's stronghold in the outer city.

That's right, stronghold.

As a Northland family with a strong commercial atmosphere, the Castel family also has an industry in the royal capital of Rutesia, specializing in some ore and jewelry business.

Although it is only a small store with a comprehensive area of no more than 300 square meters, it is also a real store.

And because it is located in the royal capital, it is very profitable, and it can also bring tens of thousands of quintana to the Castel family every year.

When Charlotte arrived at her shop in a horse-drawn carriage, she happened to see Sebas walking out of the shop.

Seeing Castel's convoy, Sebas was visibly stunned for a moment, and he hurried over to Charlotte's carriage:

"Master? You...... Why are you here?"

Charlotte stepped out of the carriage with the help of her maid Shirley, followed by a curious Rena and an expressionless Odosia.

She glanced at Sebas and smiled:

"Where am I going if I don't come here? You have released my dove at the gate of the city, and I will have to come to you in the shop myself."

Listening to Charlotte's words, Sebas suddenly looked embarrassed, and hurriedly saluted respectfully, saying:

"I'm sorry, master, there was a little urgency in the store just now, and I couldn't meet you at the city gate in time, you ...... It went smoothly when you entered the city, right?"

After speaking, he glanced at the Castel family's convoy, and frowned slightly:

"Strange...... Aren't the guards of the City Guard with you?"

Guards of the City Guard?

Charlotte was stunned for a moment.

Thinking back to what happened at the city gate, she thought about it, her heart moved slightly, and she chuckled:

"There was a little hiccup, but overall it went well."

"Vignette?"

Sebas's eyes jumped.

Charlotte shook her head:

"We'll talk about that later, have you settled where you're staying tonight?"

Sebas nodded:

"It's arranged, I have rented a noble manor in the inner city, and it has been cleaned, and it is more than enough for everyone in the convoy to live."
