In the council chamber, when Otto and Lady Kailin appeared together, the originally noisy council hall instantly quieted down, and the eyes of the nobles swirled around the two of them.

Everyone was aware of the strange atmosphere in the territory during this time, especially the nobles who stayed in the territory, and they were attracted by both Otto and Lady Kailin.

Seeing the two of them come in, the nobles all looked serious and prepared to watch a good show.

Lady Kaylin had already put away her makeup, but her red and swollen eyes had made her usual nobility and glamour a lot less colorful.

She slowly walked to the steps in front of the hall, looked at the people below, and slowly spoke:

"Ladies and gentlemen, Count Berthold is now seriously injured and unconscious, and I am afraid that he will not be able to handle the affairs of the realm. As his wife, I would like to discuss with you who will rule the affairs of the territory in the future.

I think the heir of the earl, his eldest son, Baron Otto, should be the regent of the realm, responsible for managing everything in the realm, I don't know what everyone's opinion is. ”

Mrs. Kaylin's words stunned everyone, one by one, you look at me, I look at you, and they look at a loss.

What is the situation, have we heard it wrong, are we sure that Lady Kaylin is talking about the eldest son, Otto, and not the second son, El?

Didn't the two of them fight openly and secretly a few days ago, why is it that Lady Kaylin is now supporting the regent of Otto's most territory.

For a while, no one knew what was happening, and no one dared to speak.

At this time, To's role was reflected, and Otto, who was also standing in the audience, glanced at Wade and coughed lightly.

Wade immediately understood and hurriedly said loudly.

"Regent by Young Master Otto, that's a matter of course, I support it!"

With Wade's statement, the nobles who had been co-opted by Otto also spoke out and expressed their support.

Since Madame Kaelin has chosen to support Otto, even those who have ideas in their hearts can only hold back at this time and show loyalty to Otto.

Soon, to the support and cheers of the crowd, Otto took the place of Lady Kaylin to the steps.

He waved his hand and motioned for everyone to be quiet.

"Thank you for your support to me, during this period when my father is unable to handle government affairs, I will temporarily manage the affairs of the territory, and I hope you will cooperate more.

It's also the first time I've accepted territory management, and there may be a lot of things that I don't do well, so I hope you don't mind, if you have any comments, feel free to mention them to me. ”

After the scene was finished, Otto announced that the old castle and the surrounding land would be given to El as a fief.

At this moment, many nobles who were kept in the dark suddenly realized that your family had already discussed the distribution of benefits, right?

While everyone was thinking about the news, Claire also made some personnel adjustments by the way.

The first was to divide the existing Castle Guard of the Old Castle into two, with half of it under the command of Rudy, the most trusted chief of the guard of the Count of Allgäu, and the other half to be taken by Otto and handed over to Ginter for command.

The original captain of the castle guard of the old castle, Knight Hardeman, was transferred to another smaller castle guard, which had been gifted by Otto to his brother El.

The second was to appoint Baron Dillon, who had returned with the Count of Allgäu on his expedition, as the new military commander of the territory, managing the guards and a small number of standing troops in the various castles and estates.

As for the original military commander, Baron Charlie, Otto gave him command of his two hundred recruits, which he named the Guards.

Third, Bard was declared the new treasurer and took away the financial power of Mrs. Kaelin.

These three appointments were made after Otto and Madame Kaylin had reached a tacit understanding. After this adjustment, Lady Kaylin could not threaten him at all.

The military power in the realm was divided in two, half of which was taken by the hardcore descendants of the Count of Allgau, and the other half was held in the hands of Otto.

Baron Charlie sided with Otto and Lady Karin in their first confrontation, and later pledged to support him, and could be regarded as his own.

As for Bard, who is in charge of finances, he is Otto's own man.

With both military and financial power, Otto's position was completely solid.

At the end of the proceedings, the nobles left with the emotion of the change of the Algao collar, leaving only a few of Otto's henchmen.

Wade respectfully saluted Otto and asked softly, "Young Master, what should the merchant named Plant do?" ”

Plant, an ordinary timber merchant. It was with him that Lady Kaylin replaced the wood of the earthen Eagle Castle built by Otto, which eventually led to the collapse of the castle and Otto's wasted months of his life.

Originally, after supplying the last batch of wood, Lady Kaylin arranged for someone to kill him. But unexpectedly, a little accident happened.

The two servants sent by Lady Kaylin were greedy for money, and the other Plant was a little quick-witted, and in the face of the shining knife, Plant lied that he still had a large amount of wealth to hide, and that he could buy his life with money.

The two servants were greedy for money and were ready to get the treasure before killing him, so they let Plant lead the way to dig up the treasure.

Plant also knew what the two servants were thinking, so he deliberately delayed the time.

Otto, on the other hand, happened to send Wade to investigate the matter, and happened to run into Plant and his party.

Plant knew Wade, knew that this was Otto's captain of the guard, and knew what he had done, so he ran to Wade on the spot and shouted for help, but the two servants sent by Lady Kaylin did not react at all.

After that, Plant and the two servants naturally fell into the hands of Otto, and Otto used them as the last killer weapon, lest Lady Kaylin not think of not agreeing to his kindness.

Fortunately, Mrs. Kailin is more aware of current affairs, and she did not fight to the death, but obediently admitted defeat. This prepared killer feature is completely useless.

"Let it all go." Otto waved his hand, and suddenly thought of something again. "Nope! Didn't he say that the timber merchant still had a large sum of money, and let him exchange it for his life, and if he had no money, let him find a way, whether it was to find another merchant or a Jew to take usury, in short, I wanted to see the money.

Hmph, the Eagle Castle that caused me collapsed, how can I do it without compensation? ”

"This..."Wade naturally didn't feel good, but thinking about the damage that Plant caused to Otto, he still nodded and didn't speak again.

After that, Otto clapped his hands after explaining to Gint and Bard what they should pay attention to in their new positions.

"Let's go! I'll take you to check the accounts and see how rich our Allgaux collar is! ”
