Chapter 125: New Year in Three Rivers City

Compared with Monserun City, the New Year's Eve banquet in Three Rivers City is undoubtedly much more lively.

In order to start the spring war, Count Wright recruited all the vassals, and many of them had already arrived at Three Rivers City in advance.

In order to show the generosity of the lord and enhance the relationship with the vassals, the New Year's Eve banquet in the Earl's Palace this year was much larger, and the nobles of all sizes in Trois-Rivières City could participate in the banquet of the Earl.

For this reason, many people praised the Earl's actions. Even before the banquet, everyone greeted each other with a greeting, "Eh, do you want to participate?" ”

It's not surprising that with such a large-scale invitation, it doesn't matter if you go or not, but it's embarrassing who you don't have.

Fortunately, Count Wright thought of this question very intimately, although he didn't remember the names of many nobles, but he made a rule, all nobles above knight level could come to the banquet, avoiding everyone's embarrassment.

In this way, a dinner party of unprecedented scale was held at the Earl's Court, and many years later, the nobles boasted about the pageantry of that night.

I have to say that the number of low-level nobles represented by knights is indeed very large, and the huge banquet hall of the Earl's Court cannot be arranged, and a large number of knights can only sit in the courtyard.

Count Wright was full of red face at the banquet, holding wine glasses and meeting with the nobles of all sizes, and said some scenes, nothing more than that the next war would depend on everyone's efforts, and everyone cheered together.

After a few laps around the courtyard, Count Wright came to the banquet hall.

In the banquet hall, there are basically Earl Wright's vassals, such as barons from all over the world and some knights who are deeply loved by Count Wright. In the face of these people, Count Wright did not have the perfunctory name, not only the food and wine hospitality, but also the intimate everyone gave a New Year's gift.

Although the value of the gift is not valuable, everyone who receives the gift is in a happy mood. After all, this is something sent by the Earl, not to mention that there are many nobles in the courtyard, so they can't catch anything.

In the banquet hall, Count Wright, as the host, undoubtedly received attention, whether it was a nobleman he was familiar with, or an unfamiliar nobleman, they all took the opportunity to toast him.

After round rounds, Rao is Earl Wright had a good amount of wine, and there were disciples of professionals, and he still felt a little dizzy.

It was almost time for Count Wright to step down from his own deeds again, and pick up his wine glass to persuade him, and at this time, even the nobles in the banquet hall were quite drunk, and there were not many who could stay sober.

After a round and turn, Earl Wright excused himself to be unwell, told everyone to have fun, and left the banquet hall first.

And shortly after Count Wright left, some people in the banquet hall also left the banquet hall.

The actions of these people naturally couldn't be hidden from everyone, staring at their backs, and many of the nobles in the banquet hall who were still awake showed envious eyes.

Obviously, these people are going to talk to the Earl alone, which shows that they have won the trust of the Earl. When will this kind of good thing come to me?

The large study room was full of people at this time.

Earl Wright's study was not small, but with nearly twenty people standing at one time, it still looked a little crowded.

Seeing that everyone was about to salute, Count Wright waved his hand, rubbed his temples, motioned to everyone not to be polite, and began to talk to himself.

"I have no other intention to call you here, first of all, I wish you all a happy new year, they are all old men who are loyal to our Morris family, and I won't say much polite words.

First of all, after the beginning of spring, the war with Count Marcas, I hope everyone will show their strength and don't make it difficult for me. Of course, I also promise you that I will share with you the vast majority of the spoils of this war, including territory and wealth.

By the way, didn't you just canonize a group of barons before? It just so happens that I still have a lot of free land, and before the official battle, I will also canonize another batch of barons, and if you have suitable children and nephews in your family, don't hide it, and recommend it generously. ”

As soon as he came up, Earl Wright threw out a heavy bargaining chip, the new baronial title.

As we all know, since Count Wright inherited Trois-Rivières City, he has hardly canonized a baron, but he didn't expect that in less than half a year, Count Wright will have to come again, it seems that Count Wright is very determined about this war.

Even if they knew that the title thrown by Count Wright was a bait and that everyone needed to work hard to get there, the vast majority of people present were still excited.

As a nobleman, the most important thing is undoubtedly wealth and inheritance. Wealth and territory are naturally the top priority, and inheritance and knighthood are the tickets to ensure a smooth inheritance.

Many people desperately want to change the fortune but do not have this opportunity, and now that there is a prepared baronial title in front of them, how can they not be moved. Who doesn't want their family to be strong, and who doesn't have a few children and nephews to arrange?

Immediately, some of the nobles present showed their loyalty, saying that they would take all their troops to the war and were willing to sponsor military expenses and supplies.

With the first, soon there will be a second and a third ...

Count Wright had a smile on his face, very well, it seemed that his purpose had been achieved.

However, he did not covet their army and wealth, but to show his courage and make everyone take the coming war seriously, and immediately he waved his hand.

"I don't need any military money or supplies from you, it's enough for you to take your own army into battle. At the end of the war, rewards were given according to merit, and if anyone had made a great achievement, I would even write to His Majesty the King and recommend him to become an earl. ”

Suddenly, the atmosphere in the study became different, and many barons were short of breath.

The count, representing the watershed of the nobility of the kingdom.

Earls and counts are above each other to be qualified to be called great nobles. If you are just a baron, no matter how big your territory is and how strong your strength is, no one will treat you as a great noble.

Therefore, the threshold of the great nobility is this earl's position.

In the kingdom, how many baronial families are racking their brains for the title of an earl, and now when they hear Count Wright's promise, who is not blushing.

"Of course, I can do it by being elected to become an earl, but in the end, it depends on His Majesty's will, but I promise that as long as everyone pays in the war, I will see any credit, and there will be no less after the war, I swear to you in the name of the Morris family.

Okay, let's not talk about the earl, so what do you have suggestions for the new batch of barons? It doesn't matter, don't avoid suspicion when you raise your relatives, just say what you think. ”

For a while, the atmosphere in the study room became warm.
