Banquet.

Bard.

Toast.

Ball.

With children.

For three days, Aldington went about the daily life of these nobles, and it can be said that in this week, he saw more nobles than the original owner had seen in sixteen years.

The biggest nobleman is undoubtedly Prince Inky Windsor.

In addition, he also met the second uncle of the Danube Province, one marquis, two uncles and five men, respectively, Jovic White Axle, Earl of Golden Crown City, and Philip Fiddler Crab, Earl of Reef City.

The five men also knew all once, in addition to his father, there was also the Baron of Falling Cloud Town, Hasmat Yedehuai, who had a bad relationship with Baron Aurenor; The Baron of Mudbore, Bloomington Shearchore, had little contact with the Iris family, and only came to make an appearance; Louis Puwei, Baron of Hundred Flowers, is the old father-in-law of Ottem.

And, of course, Aldington's "enemy" Cliff's father, Klose Spike, Baron of Boulder Town.

These nobles, who had influenced the political landscape of the entire Danube province, gathered at Butterfly Castle, conspired with Baron Giovanni and others from the capital, hid in their study for several hours, and then left their gifts for Aldington before the dinner began, and then left the castle.

After fooling Prince Inkie to sleep, Aldington found an opportunity to talk to his father or two.

"You care a lot about politics, Aldington, and that's a good thing, unless you can become a dragon knight, no nobleman can do without politics." Baron Aureno rubbed his head, revealing a slightly tired gesture, "Even if it is a dragon knight, I'm afraid there will be political intrigues." ”

"Father, listen to what you mean, and in combination with the words of the Bomber father and son in that world, it seems that there are dragon knights involved in the situation in the Danube Plain?"

"You're smart and sensitive." The baron smiled, "Maybe there are dragon knights involved, maybe there are no dragon knights involved, it's not a secret we can know now. In short, the confrontation between the two countries that has lasted for thousands of years in the Danube Plain will definitely be subverted and changed. ”

Aldington nodded, and said, "Since Mr. Duric's marriage to Lady Norina, I have guessed that the situation will change, and even I can think that the ministers of the kingdom must also understand. ”

"Some people really understand, some people really don't, and some people pretend they don't understand. But we of the Iris family are new nobles, and we are only loyal to His Majesty the King, just know that," the baron waved his hand, not intending to dwell on the subject.

"So, my lord, what did the two counts talk about today, plus the five barons and Lord Bang?"

"The Council of Counts and Barons is about to meet, and this year the Kingdom will draw up a plan to conquer the primitive tribes of Limaxiong, the Danube Province is adjacent to many primitive tribes, and we need to divide their respective spheres of influence. The meeting will be in July, and it should be possible to go in September. ”

Alding suddenly realized, "Oh. ”

"The conquest of the primitive tribe is an excellent opportunity to make meritorious contributions, your strength is now comparable to that of a regular knight, and His Majesty the King has also canonized you as a knight of the Empire, have you ever thought about participating in the war? If you want, learn to ride with Dulick as soon as possible, and from May to September, you have four months to learn. ”

"Uh, can I not go?" Aldington asked tentatively, it was not advisable to encourage the seedlings, and he would only be sixteenth next month.

There are still more than two years left before the age of eighteen to adulthood, and it is not good to go to war now.

Baron Aureno turned his head and looked at Aldington: "Huh? ”

"Actually, what I want to say is that I prefer to play steadily and steadily, being protected by the servants to go into battle, and I can't grab any combat merits at all, and I may be held back."

"I understand your thoughts."

The baron summoned Carson's butler, poured two glasses of red wine, handed one to Aldington, and then continued: "You are now a great poet and a knight of blood, and you have been touted for a while, and you feel that it is better to go to Versailles to make a name for yourself on the battlefield, right?" ”

"And it didn't ......"

"Don't be in a hurry to deny it, I'm your father, I can see the thoughts. It's all to blame for this guy Hector who daydreams about being a bard all day long, he doesn't have half the talent, but he encourages you to be a bard too! I have no objection to you taking the bard's route, simply because the bard can provide you with the forces of nature and save you a lot of prayer time. ”

Without giving Aldington a chance to argue, the baron continued: "I am proud of you for your unexpected fame, but you have to remember one thing. The so-called great writers and poets, when the nobles give face, you are a great poet, if you don't give face, you are just a vassal and elegant clown. ”

"Forehead ......"

"Don't be blinded by the impetuosity in front of you, you see the so-called three saints of Senna, even the king has to be respectfully worshipped, it is just a show. They're like...... It's like ......" The baron searched the table, but when he couldn't find a suitable prop, he shook the goblet in his hand.

The red wine in the glass had been drunk, and he held up the tall crystal glass and said: "Just like this crystal cup, it is hollowed out from a whole piece of crystal, and it is very emotional to taste red wine, which is a luxury only for aristocrats." However, one day I don't like it anymore and I can throw it away. ”

Smack.

The goblet fell to the ground and shattered into a slag.

The baron pointed to the glass shards on the ground and asked, "Do you understand?" ”

Aldington nodded in response, "Understood." ”

How could he not understand how many great truths he had heard of in the thirty years of growth of the earth, and he could say such a straightforward truth for three days and three nights without rest.

But understanding and doing are two different things.

Who doesn't know that LV bags are OEM in Wenzhou tannery, just ordinary leather bags, but it does not prevent ladies from chasing LV bags.

In the same way, the essence of classic poetry is similar to that of the belief in the three gods, but it does not prevent Aldington from enjoying the title of great poet.

The baron, who thought that Aldington was impressed by his reasoning, said with satisfaction: "It's good that you can understand, in the Plantagenet Kingdom, there is only one way for hereditary nobles to obtain, and that is to achieve military exploits. Our father and son work together to bring the Iris family to a higher position! ”

……

The Baron is ambitious and wants to lead the Iris family to the heights of the Earl family.

It's just that in Aldington's opinion, this ambition is too small and too small, and his small goal is the dragon knight, and the lowest title of the dragon knight in the kingdom is the earl.

"I have the sea of books, time is on my side, what am I anxious about." With that in mind, he returned to his room fully armed.

Spread out a book and quietly wait for the resurrection time to clear.

After a few moments, the sensation of the world spinning hit him, and when he opened his eyes again, he had already arrived at the shore of the fifth island, where he had been stabbed by the swordfish monster in the sea the last time. So he had prepared early, paddled his oars quickly, and rushed directly to the shore, away from the sea.

Roar!

With a tiger roar, a huge two-meter-tall tiger appeared in front of him.

Seeing this big tiger, Aldington breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, it's still a low-level demonic beast, a muscular tiger." ”
