Chapter 217: Envoy 2

The next day, Ed got up and went back to the house to pack his bags, and Chesterton, the knight, had already prepared them for him, only the things he had to bring with him still needed to be checked, and everything was done when the sun was shining brightly, and the things he had to tell him in his absence were arranged.

With a slightly heavy footsteps, Ed walked on the road to say goodbye to Delia in a depressed mood because he was about to leave, but found that the crowd on the road seemed to be filled with a happy mood, everyone was full of smiles, greeted each other eagerly, and the content of the conversation made him pay attention.

"Did you get it?"

"Of course, even you guys have a share, how could I not be. โ€

"It must be hearty!"

"Haha! It's okay, we veterans will not be treated badly. โ€

Ed's heart moved, and he asked someone to inquire, and sure enough, the reward that Di Liya fought for everyone finally came down, after the last war, including Ed, they were thinking that they couldn't just reward the knights, and the soldiers below should also be commended, and this matter was also recognized by most of the knights in the army, and the ordinary soldiers in this battle were not just called by the knight lords themselves in the past, responsible for some battlefield chores, and they really played a big role.

Originally, King Charles was only responsible for rewarding the knights according to the custom, and the knights themselves decided whether to give some oil and water to the soldiers brought out, but this time, due to the special situation, Delia and Ed discussed with them, and won the joint names of many knights, and asked the king to take out a part of the ransom in exchange for the captives as a reward for ordinary soldiers.

The matter had dragged on for a month, and now it had finally come to an end, and Ed had thought that the stingy king would not be so easy to talk to. "Maybe it's to appease Delia and hope that she will support the decision to make peace between the two countries. โ€

While secretly guessing. Ed walked towards the headquarters and saluted him happily as he saw his soldiers along the way. Let's make a debut.

Those who have participated in several major battles know in their hearts that General Ed can be regarded as a great contributor to their victory, dragging him and Delia to the blessing that these hometowns have fallen, and these displaced ordinary people have the opportunity to take up arms and fight back to their hometowns, and still maintain such a low casualty rate, and receive additional rewards, the gratitude can be felt even without words.

After Ed's soul strength is improved, he can especially sense the hearts of others towards him, and he is full of praise and gratitude to himself. It's a beautiful feeling, and you can't help but speed up your pace and want to leave quickly.

On the one hand, Ed felt that he had not done enough, and on the other hand, he was afraid that he would enjoy this atmosphere of being admired and appreciated too much, and his mentality would change in the future and no longer remain his simple self.

Doing good deeds with a utilitarian heart may not change the nature of things, and you still help others, but Ed is afraid that if he adapts to this "trade", one day he thinks he has done good deeds and does not receive the gratitude of others. And resentment, that's not good!

This is not hypocrisy or nobility, the boy just wants to do things according to his heart, so whether the outside world gives him a negative evaluation. Whether it is positive praise, you should not leave too heavy traces in your heart.

"Hey, lo and behold, our big hero is here!"

As Ed pushed open the door to the council chamber. He was still greeted by the kind ridicule of everyone, and all the people present were his acquaintances. Tennison, Roy and other knights. Several ordinary generals who have been promoted for their military exploits under his subordinates, as well as Andre, Di Liya, etc.

"Tsk! It's 500,000 gold coins as soon as you make a move! Ed, you're really generous!" Talking about it, Ed made a modest expression and walked to Delia's side, and the girl whispered to him: "Ed, I'm sorry! I didn't expect the number to be so big, you won't be unhappy!"

Immediately received the explanation from the other party's heart, and the young man now understood, King Charles received a joint request, although he reluctantly agreed, but the actual bounty allocated was not very rich, and before initiating the joint name, Ed and Delia had said in advance that if he didn't get a reply or the reply was not satisfactory, he voluntarily took out half of his reward and distributed it to the soldiers below.

Of course, Di Lia herself took the lead in saying that she didn't want all the bounties, and all the bounties were divided, which provoked all the knights at that time to second, this time after the bounty came down, Di Lia really fulfilled her promise and donated almost all the rewards, and Ed's part she made the decision and donated it according to the agreement, because of the large number of prisoners under the young man's name, the bounty was also extraordinarily rich, reaching as much as one million, in addition to the land manor rewarded by the king, etc., with this large amount of money, Di Lia did not let the rest of the knights pay again, and the two of them plus the original bounty was enough to make every soldier in the army very satisfiedใ€‚

"It's okay, I'm happy about this too!" Facing Delia's unblinking gaze at his scrutiny, Ed said very calmly, he didn't have much desire for the money in this world, according to what he had experienced at the beginning, it seemed that spending three thousand gold coins was enough to buy a property in Hill Castle, of course, he knew that he had a fight with the Burgundian envoy and destroyed the entire tavern.

In this way, millions of gold coins are indeed a lot of wealth, and leaving 500,000 should be enough for him to spend!

Ed's generous and natural answer obviously made Delia very happy, and everyone in the audience admired him, not greedy for money, not competing for fame, Ed was obviously a near-perfect knight in their eyes.

"Oh, perfect knight Eddard, if I had a sister, I'd introduce you to you. โ€

"Haha! if you have a sister, it will be difficult to marry, but don't leave it to our knights, he should go to a neighboring princess like Richard!" "Having been rewarded and proved his merits, it was evident that the knights were in a good mood, and they were not at all angry at all when they made some excessive jokes on each other.

When everyone was happy and happy, Di Liya took advantage of everyone's inattention, put her head to Ed's ear and said to him: "Wait a while, I will give you a separate reward before leaving, wait for me in the back garden." โ€

Looking at the other party's smiling eyes, Ed's heart was full of anticipation, at this time, he was absolutely sure that his previous choice was extremely correct, what is 500,000 gold coins, can it buy a glance from his sweetheart?

There was no important issue, everyone continued the joyful atmosphere to the end, which was to celebrate the rich reward and practice for Eddard, and at noon there was a grand banquet, and the soldiers outside were also given extra food and wine, and the whole camp was full of joyful atmosphere.
