After listening to his cheap father's words, Gervais temporarily suppressed the doubts in his heart.

Looking around the hall, I saw that everyone was eating, so I also walked towards the long table, preparing to eat more to suppress the boredom in my heart.

When Gervais reached the long table, the young men avoided him, and when they saw him from afar, they changed places and went to the table next to him to eat. Only the barons would say hello to him and say, "Congratulations!" "I didn't talk to him after the compliment.

Gervais was also very polite to thank them one by one, and he was not familiar with these barons and viscounts, let alone find a topic to talk to them.

After that, the banquet lasted for more than an hour, and then the crowd gradually dispersed. Some aristocrats, for various reasons, such as not having a fief or not being used to living in a country territory, bought a property in the city, lived in the city, and could return home that night.

However, some noble territories are far away from the Rose Castle and need to stay here, and the Rose Castle is the earl's castle, and the rooms are of course sufficient.

After the crowd dispersed, Gervais found his father, who was probably too happy and a little too drunk and flushed, but fortunately, he was still very conscious, after all, he was a silver knight, and as long as he didn't want to get drunk, he wouldn't get drunk even if he took a bucket of water.

Gervais still thinking that he could learn a lot from him, so he stepped forward and said, "Father, it seems that I have drunk a lot tonight!" ”

"Haha, my dear little Gervais, don't you know, those old fellows usually like to show off, just like Baron Will, once he was lucky enough to get an elven worm amber, and he asked someone to send me a letter for half a month to explain how to get the elven worm amber. You're in luck this time, and of course I'm going to talk to them, but you didn't see it, Baron Will's nose was crooked just now, and I think he's going to beat his three sons when he goes back tonight. ”

"......" Gervais was a little speechless, after all, you are all barons, is it necessary to be so naïve? Besides, whether it's good luck or not is another matter.

"Lord Gervais, Lord Earl, please come over." At that moment, the voice of the manservant sounded behind Gervais.

Gervais just wanted to ask his father something, but he didn't expect to be interrupted again, so he could only reluctantly say to his father: "Father, you wait for me a while." ”

"Since the Earl is looking for you, you should go first!" Gandalf had no opinion and replied.

Led by the valet, Gervais made his way through the corridors and into the depths of the castle. To be honest, it was the first time for Gervais to walk in such a large castle, and if it weren't for a manservant leading the way in front, he would probably have lost his way. His cheap daddy's baronial castle didn't even have a tenth of the castle of roses.

The aisles of the castle are spacious, and there is a cabinet on either side of the aisle, which houses a variety of artworks, which is an eye-opener for Gervais.

As he passed around the corner, Gervais saw a super-large monster head.

The head is very large, the width of the top and bottom is half a person high, it is covered with scale armor, the eyes are the size of a bowl, the whole head shape is a bit like a lizard, but the jaw is wider than that of a lizard, and two fangs more than 20 centimeters long leak out of the closed mouth.

"My lord, this is the mount of the mountain lizard, the leader of the orcs, who was killed by the old earl ten years ago in the winter season." The manservant was very discerning, and saw that Gervais was interested in this lizard specimen, so he hurriedly introduced.

Gervais nodded and didn't say anything, the force value of this world, it is not strange to kill these monsters.

Continue to follow the manservant forward, and at the end, there are three flights of stairs to climb.

Climbing to the third floor, the manservant immediately opened the door in the hallway, and when Gervais walked out of the door, it suddenly became clear that there was an open-air balcony outside.

The Rose Castle is built on the mountain, at the foot of the hill is the city, the periphery of the city is protected by a wall up to 20 meters high, and halfway up the mountain is the inner wall, separating the inner and outer city, and finally the castle is the position that reaches the top of the hill.

Gervais stood on the platform on the third floor of the castle, overlooking the whole of Winterfell, and although it was night, it was even more dreamlike and unreal in the moonlight.

"How is this place compared to your father's Baronial Castle!" Gervais was so attracted by such a view that he couldn't extricate himself, and at this moment Alice's voice came from behind him, and Gervais realized that it was Alice who was looking for him, but he still arrived first, and the countess's bureaucratic thinking was a bit heavy.

"Lord Earl laughed, there is no comparison, if I have to compare, it is the comparison between the sparrow and the eagle." Gervais retracted his gaze and replied leisurely.

He didn't make a fool of himself, he just told the truth, and even said that his father's Baronial Castle was a bit of an overestimate.

His father's castle was built on flat land, the highest was only more than 20 meters, and the area was only about two acres, which still included a large open-air front yard surrounded by the city wall in front of the castle. And there is a small town outside the city, about a kilometer from the castle.

"Oh, your father won't like these words when he hears them!" Alice couldn't deny it, and laughed coquettishly, and then casually walked to the edge of the balcony, looking out over the whole of Winterfell, like Gervais.

Gervais was a little unsure of the countess. She called herself here at this time, but she didn't talk about business, and gossiped with him about these useless words.

So he turned to look at Alice.

Alice has changed into the dress she wore when she got married, wearing a white shirt like a shirt, and a purple dress with double straps on the outside of the bottom, and the waist of the dress is tight-fitting technology, which sets off Alice's perfect figure to the fullest.

Gervais couldn't help swallowing his saliva, although he was not a ghost, but he was also a normal man, such a perfect woman dangling in front of him, it would be fake to say that he didn't think about it. However, given the countess's power and force value, Gervais only dared to think about it in his head.

Alice noticed Gervais's gaze, but she didn't turn her head, her curved eyelashes blinked, and she continued to stare at Winterfell beneath her feet, silent.

"The Earl won't tell him, and I'm just telling the truth, there's nothing to worry about. However, I wonder what happened to the Earl? Gervais withdrew his gaze, not wanting to go around in circles with the countess here, or his cheap daddy would be gone later.

Because his father's territory is not far from here, and the terrain is flat along the way, and it can be reached in four hours on horseback, and when he came, his father said that he would return to the Baronial Castle tonight, because there is a mare in the castle that is about to give birth recently, and horses are also quite valuable assets for nobles. If it weren't for the countess's order, he probably wouldn't have come this time.

It's just that now that Gervais has become the countess's husband, he may have to stay here, and he will ask the countess when he will go to the territory in two days.

"You don't have to call me Lord Earl anymore, you can call me by my name, I think you also know the original intention of my marriage to you, but since you and I have become husband and wife in name, there are some aspects that need to be different from everyone else." Alice was very satisfied with Gervais's attitude, and knew from the way he called himself that Gervais was a smart man, and he didn't think about himself because of a nominal identity, otherwise he would have to use some means to make him retreat.

"There are actually two things that call you up, the first thing is to send you something!" Without waiting for Gervais to answer, Alice continued. After saying that, he waved his hand behind him, and immediately a maid came over with a box.

Alice took the box from the maid and placed it in front of Gervais.

Gervais was a little puzzled that the countess had sent something to herself. However, this thing was given by the earl, so of course you have to take a look, and the value of what the earl can get his hands on will definitely not be low. So Gervais took the box without hesitation.

Holding the box in his hand, Gervais felt that this box was not ordinary, the box was boxy, slightly cool to the touch, very smooth to the touch, carved with rose patterns in the middle of the box directly above, and it was carved with a hollow carving process, but the hollow holes were very small, and there were more than ten of them.

Gervais looked at the box carefully, and found that the material was jade, and sure enough, it was the earl, and the outer packaging for a gift was all good things. The contents are definitely more valuable.

Gervais's face was a little solemn.

Sure enough, after Gervais opened the jade box, he found that it was an elf worm inside, the elf worm was about ten centimeters long, the whole body was translucent royal blue, fat, and cute.

"Earl...... Alice, is this for me? "Gervais is a little unsure, this thing is too valuable.

Elf worm, and this is still a mutated elven worm, even his cheap dad can't give him these things, because it's too precious.

There is a saying in this world: nobles do not necessarily have elven worms, but those who have elven worms must be nobles.
