854 Then I can't blame you
Leffy Berrier was not the head of the Count Berrier's family.
At least, not now.
The border city of Mitte is not the only one in the county of Beryl, there are quite a few cities in this territory.
The mayors of these cities are either direct or collateral members of the Beryl family, or vassals of the Berrier family, just like the Iron Capital of Kaludi, which was led by the Mepros family, and the administrators there were the Hatites who were vassals of the Maypros family.
These people were given the authority to administer one of the cities in the domain, and they were considered the landowners of the city.
That's how Leffy Berrier became mayor of Mitte, and he was in charge of the border city of Mitte.
Her elder brother is the current head of the Berrier family, although she is past middle age, she has not left the family, and her husband is a member of the Berrier family, so she is still the direct head of the Berrier family, and she is sent to manage the border city of Mitte.
This is an important task, as the Kingdom of Luke has been very restless in recent years, and may even start a war against the Queen of Tistis with the support of the Alliance of Small Nations.
As the border city closest to the territory of the Kingdom of Luk, Mitte must shoulder the heavy responsibility of defending against the Kingdom of Luke and protecting the territory of the Queen Kingdom of Tistis, both geographically and strategically.
Riffie Berrier took on the responsibility.
Perhaps, she is not the most powerful person in the family, just a second-rate magician, but if it is only about management skills, she is definitely the most powerful in the family, and even the brother who is the master has to think that she is inferior.
It's a pity that the Kingdom of Luke still invaded the territory of the Queen of Tistis after all, and it was menacing, and it was fully prepared, and only the army stationed in Mitte could not resist the sudden attack of the other party.
Under such circumstances, Leyfy Berrier was mentally prepared to perish with Mitter.
Anyway, the person who should be sent, she has already sent it away, and she can only look at the other party's creation later.
With this in mind, Riffey sat in the mayor's mansion, waiting for the enemy army to invade here, and died generously.
Who would have thought that at the critical moment, there would be a twist and turn.
After receiving the report from Xiun, Riffy hurried to the reception room and received the group of heroes who had saved Mitt as soon as possible.
"Thank you again for saving Mitt and saving us."
Lyphy lowered her posture and bowed repeatedly.
This is no longer the attitude towards the hero, but the attitude towards the superior above himself.
No way, she had already heard that the young man in charge of the matter in front of her was a tactical-level magician, and there was also a Sword Saint attendant by his side, and those who followed him were either rich or noble, either with extraordinary temperament or beautiful.
Such a group of people, whose origins are obviously extraordinary, are by no means something that a person from an earl's family can resist.
Therefore, Laifei did not put on a stand, and thanked him sincerely.
And her posture was also very successful, at least making Rieg and others feel that the first impression was not bad.
"It's just a matter of convenience, and the mayor doesn't need to be polite."
Rig shook his head and put the matter to light.
But Lai Fei obviously wouldn't be ignorant enough to be over.
"I have reported what happened to Mitte to the family, and the family has also reported it to the Palace of Queen Urwasi, and I believe that the royal family will not be indifferent to your help." Lai Fei said very solemnly: "My country will definitely thank a few people, and please be sure to stay here for some time so that we can entertain you." ”
"No, we don't need hospitality, and we don't need any thanks." Li Ge still shook his head, but his tone changed sharply, and said: "But we do want to meet the people of the royal family, if we have the opportunity, I wonder if we can introduce them?" ”
Hearing this, Lai Fei's heart moved, and at the same time, a little vigilance rose.
"May I ask why Your Excellency wants to see someone from the royal family?"
Lyphy asked tentatively.
There's no way around it.
The current situation of the Queen Kingdom of Tistise is not good, and the royal family is completely divided into the prince faction and the princess faction, and the civil wars between the two sides have continued to exhaust the queen kingdom, which has led to the current situation.
In this case, Rieger proposed to meet the people of the royal family, and Lai Fei would naturally be a little sensitive and a little wary.
Although he knew that this was not good, no matter what the other party said, he had just saved himself and saved this border city, but who made the Queen Kingdom of Tistise unable to bear the toss?
The origins of Rieg and the others are too mysterious for Lai Fei to think about too much.
"Rest assured, I'm not too interested in the country itself."
Seeing that Lai Fei was tempting himself, Li Ge didn't care, but the way he spoke was no longer tactful, and became a lot more direct.
"You don't have to worry that we want to do something to the royal family or this country in troubled times, I just want to meet the people of the Tistise family and ask them something."
Ask something?
What's up?
Riffy wanted to ask, but stopped in time.
Temptation is temptation, but Riffey still knows what questions to ask and what not to ask.
The question in front of me obviously involves the privacy of the other party, and it would be rude to ask it again.
Therefore, Lai Fei pressed the doubts in his heart, smiled at Rige, and said: "Of course I don't doubt Your Excellency, but Your Excellency also knows that the current situation in the Queen Kingdom of Tistise is very unstable, and although our Berrier family is only a border count's family, it is also a member of the great nobles, so it is inevitable that we will be more sensitive." ”
It's kind of a little decorative and pretty thing.
Rieger felt that the mayor of Mitte in front of him was very good at saying such beautiful words, which would not make people feel uncomfortable, and even make people feel fluttery.
However, these beautiful words are not obvious sycophants and flattery, and the other party mixes the truth with his words, which will only make others feel comfortable and not unpleasant.
"If only the mayor could think so." Li Ge chuckled and said, "Then I wonder if the mayor is willing to introduce it?" ”
“…… I can report this to the public, and whether Your Excellency can do so depends on the decision of the royal family. Lai Fei thought about it, and finally decided not to say it so deadly, and said very cautiously: "It stands to reason that Your Excellency saved Mitt, helped our country resist the illegal invasion of foreign countries, and avoided the end of our country losing its territory. ”
"It is estimated that it will be difficult to be introduced, but if you want to be summoned, it is still easy in the current situation."
"Just ......"
Speaking of which, Leyphy was a little reluctant to speak.
"Just what's wrong?"
Rig urged slightly, allowing the other party to continue.
Seeing this, Ryphy sighed.
"It's just that it may not be Her Majesty who summoned you, and if you enter the palace because of this, you may still encounter some trouble."
Riffy's words made Rieger's eyes narrow.
He had already known about the state of the Queen Kingdom of Tistise in advance, so he naturally knew what Riffy was referring to.
The civil strife in the kingdom of Tistise is clear even to the Kingdom of Genus, and Yuri has already told Rieg about it, so Rieg knows that the current kingdom of the queen of Tistise is a plate of scattered sand, not only the royal family is divided into two factions and constantly fighting with each other, but the nobles also have their own supporters, but the queen has not come forward to take care of this matter, as if she does not know the existence of this matter, she doesn't even care about political affairs, it is said that she has not left the queen's palace for a long time, and she has not even left her bedroom, she has been living in the palace and rarely shows up.
As a result, the internal affairs of the Kingdom of Tistise are now divided into two, controlled by the princess and prince factions of the royal family.
The biggest problem is that the two sides of the internal affairs are not clearly distinguished, and each is managing the part that needs to be responsible for itself, but wants to interfere in everything, and as a result, the two sides are fighting for power and profit, and they are in trouble every day.
Li Ge's matter is reasonable, and the royal family has to come forward to commend and thank him, but the question is who is the person who came forward?
Both sides must want to represent the whole country and thank Rieger in public, so that they can tell others that they are the voice of the country.
That's why Leffy said that it would not be Her Majesty the Queen who summoned Riger, because Her Majesty was no longer in business, and it sounded like she was leaving the Kingdom of Tistise to fend for itself.
And if Rig is summoned and enters the Queen's Palace, he will be forced to submit to the situation and choose which side to meet in full view of everyone.
Are you going to meet the princess's faction? Or do you want to meet with someone sent by the prince?
If he accepted the summons of the princess faction, would the prince faction willingly watch in secret?
And the other way around?
That's what Riffey calls trouble.
For this, Rieger has only one sentence.
"That's the mayor, you're thinking too much." Li Ge said quite calmly: "No matter who summons me, those troubles in your eyes can't find me. ”
"If it finds me, then I can only say that the person who did this is really not long-sighted."
"If it's self-defeating, then I'm not to blame, don't you?"
Such words made Lei Fei stunned at first, and then his face changed slightly.
She understood.
Not only did she understand, but Xiun on the side also understood, and she couldn't help but glance at Lilith behind Rieger.
Not only did he think about it, what would be the consequences if someone from the prince's faction or the princess's faction came to trouble Rige for his own little care?
Obviously, the consequences will be severe.
Because these people are not ordinary people who can be crushed by the royal family, but there are tactical-level magicians, and a group of ruthless people with extraordinary backgrounds who are accompanied by the Sword Master.
Will they be afraid of the royal family's troubles?
Apparently not.
And the people of the royal family, would they be so irrational to offend a group of people who obviously have extraordinary backgrounds and have a sword master accompanying them in the ranks?
Obviously, it won't.
If so, then the other party should stop fighting for power and profit, and go home to farm and retire.
This kind of brain is really not suitable for fighting for power and profit.
In this way, what Riffy and Schoen are worried about is not that Rige and the others may be in trouble, but that the royal family and the country may be in trouble.
If in the current situation, you still offend a mysterious powerhouse of unknown origin and provoke this group of young people with obvious and extraordinary backgrounds, the consequences will really be very serious.
Thinking of this, Shuen aside, Leffy didn't want to see Rige and the others go to Urvasi, enter the royal palace, and be summoned by the royal family.
But the other party obviously has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, if you stop the other party, it will not be beautiful.
So, Riffie smiled wryly.
"I will report your situation to the royal family as appropriate, and if the royal family is summoned at that time, someone should be sent to pick you up."
For the sake of this country, Lai Fei is also heartbroken.
She has already thought about it, she must solemnly reflect to the above, focusing on reporting that it is not simple for Li Ge and his party, so that the above will pay attention to it, and don't accidentally offend someone who shouldn't be offended.
The current Queen Kingdom of Tistis really can't withstand too much tossing.
It's a pity that Ryphy's heart is destined to more.
"How long will it take to wait for the royal family to send someone over?"
Rig frowned.
It's not difficult to report anything, there are magic crystals for communication in this world, and I believe that the royal family of the Queen Kingdom of Tistis will not neglect themselves and others after learning about the situation of their group, and they will definitely summon them immediately.
But if you wait for the other party to send someone to pick it up, how long will it take to come and go?
You must know that in the Kingdom of Jinas, even with the assistance of the Grand Canal, it will take half a month to go back and forth from the royal capital to the border of the Mepros territory.
And the Queen Kingdom of Tistise does not have a Grand Canal, and even the environment is much worse than that of the Kingdom of Jinas, if there is a snowstorm on the way, how can it take a month to go back and forth, right?
That's been too long.
As it turned out, Riger's fears were right.
"The royal family has the best means of travel, using the most top-level configuration, even if there is a snowstorm blocking the way, it can reach the Berrier Territory smoothly in less than ten days, and even if it comes to this Mitte City on the most border of the Beryl Territory, it only takes about ten days."
Leyfy told Rigg.
"It will take at least twenty days to come and go, right?" Rig shook his head and said, "Forget it, it's been too long, so let's leave for Urvashi from my side first." ”
"Your Excellency set out on your own?" Lai Fei was stunned and hurriedly said: "Although there are transportation tools in Mitte that can cross ice and snow, but the speed is not comparable to the top travel tools equipped by the royal family, and with that, your Excellency may have to take more time to reach Urvasi." ”
"It's okay, I'll figure this out myself." "The mayor just needs to help us contact the royal family, tell them what we want, and prepare maps, food, and water for us." ”
Hearing this, and looking at Rieger's expression, Leffy knew that he couldn't stop this young man.
"It's okay now, I can't even delay a little time to think of a way."
Lyphy sighed again.
But......
"With them here, can I entrust him to them?"
Layphy's eyes flickered slightly.
After a while, Riffey made a decision.
"Let's talk to that person first."
