Chapter 175: Letter from Home

Lothar's first meal in Randeler was a delicious lamprey.

If you say, the first person to eat crabs is a warrior.

Then the first person to eat the seven-cheeked eel was the Scandinavian legend of Valhalla, those Heroic Spirits who carried two axes and looked at death as if they were home.

This kind of thing with terrifying mouthparts, no matter how you look at it, is surprisingly delicious after being cooked.

Rosa picked up the bread with some dissatisfaction, dipped it in the sauce on her plate, and ate it.

"Prajna, where did you learn to cook such things?"

There was a rare hint of remembrance on Pranya's face: "When I was the gatekeeper of hell, in the River Styx, there was also a group of creatures similar to this lamprey. ”

"It's a pity that the materials in my hand are limited, otherwise the taste should be better."

Jeanne suddenly said: "I see, you're talking about ghoul fish?" ”

The smile on Lothar's face froze.

Jeanne laughed and said, "Just kidding, I don't know what monsters live in the Styx of Hell." ”

Prajna nodded, "She is indeed talking nonsense, there are no corpses in the River Styx of Hell, and there can be no corpses in the Styx." ”

Lothar was relieved.

Jeanne took off her boots, lifted her plump and round legs to the table, and said casually, "My lord, what are your plans for the next period of time?" ”

"Don't put your feet on the table, okay?"

Lothar frowned and moved her ass into the distance: "I don't have any plans, just wait here for Zahn Aladdin to lose his breath and attack me first." ”

"Well, that's boring."

Jeanne rested her head on her arms and lay on her back with her legs crossed: "If I were you, I would definitely take advantage of this leisure time to enjoy the glamorous life of the feudal aristocracy." ”

In Lothar's head, he subconsciously said, "Can't you enjoy it after fighting all your life.jpg

"After taking the port of Ella, it's time to take a break of time."

You also have to consider the feelings of your neighbors and whether you have the spare time to digest the new territory you have acquired.

Lothar felt that it was a heavy burden for her to take the port of Ella now.

"When Prajna and I first arrived in Jerusalem, I took with me twenty men and ten horses, and because of my father's shadow, I was valued by His Majesty the King and Baron Goldfrey."

"Now, I have thousands of miles of fertile land, real estate, and no estate, and if I am reckless, I can pull out thousands of armored soldiers equipped with iron armor and helmets."

Lothar stood up, pressed his index finger to the map of the Levant hanging in the hall, and said, "My empire begins here." ”

"It's a remarkable achievement."

Jeanne applauded softly: "By the way, if you build a new empire, what should you call it?" Habsburg monarchy? Or the Levantine Empire? ”

"Don't you think it's too early to talk about this?"

Lothar shrugged: "I'm just looking to the future, you just have to listen to it, I have to follow the 'elaboration' below, and make us like a bunch of hysteriates who are daydreaming." ”

Jeanne spread her hands: "Listen to Hans, my lord, when you started your business in the early days, you were very good at drawing cakes, not only for others, but also for yourself - I just wanted to see and understand." ”

Lothar's face darkened: "Don't slander me, when did I draw a cake?" That's called grand causes! ”

Then.

Hans walked into the hall.

"My lord, I have a letter from you."

Lothar unfolded the letter, her face slightly happy: "Ah, my brother Otto is coming on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem, and he has brought me a few good people to join me. ”

Pilgrimage was a journey that almost every Western European lord would complete in his or her own life.

Otto needs to inherit the ancestral business, and it is estimated that after this trip, he will have to return to AllgΓ€u.

Lothar looked at it for a while, then frowned a little.

"Are you worried?"

"My unconscious brother actually ran away to Jerusalem behind my father's back."

Lothar rubbed her eyebrows: "According to my father, the Count of Werner, he actually escaped his marriage to the second daughter of the Duke of Lower Lorraine... This idiot. ”

Jeanne commented heartlessly: "The pursuit of true love? My lord, this should be encouraging, right? ”

"It's worth encouraging a fart."

Lothar snorted lightly: "He is the only heir of AllgΓ€u, and his marriage must be compromised for the survival of the family, not to mention, the marriage of the second daughter of the Duke of Lower Lorraine, I don't know how many favors it took Count Werner to make a deal, how can he say that he will escape from marriage?" ”

Relative rights and responsibilities.

Eating the food of the old Haburg family, you have to think about the interests of the family.

It would be a coward's act to want to enjoy a noble lord and to evade responsibility at the same time.

…

Inside the city of Alandler.

The peasants on patrol rested in the shade, talking about the new territory that the lord had given them in Alandler.

"It is said that the Lord is going to exchange our land in Hebron for Aramdel, but for double the share."

"What do you think?"

"It should be worth it, right?"

"Anyway, we didn't cultivate the land for long."

Some people are excited, others are worried that Randeler will be reduced to a battlefield tomorrow, and they are worried that Lothar will lose the battle and even lose his land.

Just a simple matter of "replacing land" caused a lot of confusion among the peasants and soldiers.

The knights did not talk much about it, and they did not discuss such theological issues as the truth of the Gospel of Barnabas in the Bible; Nor will we talk about the progress made on another jihadist front on the distant Yomberia Peninsula.

In their free time, they tend to look at each other and smile.

"Hit two?"

"Two drinks?"

In this regard, the task of Inspector Ulm became more and more onerous, as he also had the duty to inspect military discipline.

"It's a rapist!"

Not far away, there was a commotion.

The peasants, who had been resting on the side of the road, immediately surrounded the front, led by an edict knight.

The peasant soldier with his pants on his face was uncontrollable panic: "I didn't!" My lord, I paid for it. ”

On the opposite side, a group of conservatively dressed Saracen men were surrounding a disheveled woman, scolding at this side.

The knight's face darkened for a while, and he rushed forward and grabbed the peasant soldier by the collar: "Don't tell me you forgot the rules that the lord set when he entered the city. ”

The peasant soldier's face was desperate, he pointed to the opposite side, and pleaded: "My lord, I paid the money, and I have no intention of forcing her." ”

Over there, the woman said something nervously between the thrusts of the Saracen men.

It took a long time for the knight to figure out that it was the women of the family who had to raise children and lacked living materials, so they made a deal with the peasants.

But her family didn't know about it, and the conflict erupted.

The knight immediately decided: "Well, I know that the man of your family has died in the war, and that your family is short of an adult man to take care of his wife and children, so you should go to her house and become a male master." ”

The peasant soldier said with some reluctance: "My lord, I have said everything, I have spent money." ”

His companions suddenly laughed: "Don't talk if you take advantage of it, just pay that money, and you can still get two sons and a beautiful wife for nothing, where did such a good thing come from?" ”
