In the face of Fiat's questioning, Lante said directly: "After she was controlled by my people, her body deteriorated greatly, she could not eat that day, and her life was in danger, I handed her over to the fourth granddaughter of His Excellency Harkala, and I have nothing to say about her current state." ”

In order to avoid lying, Rand pieced together two truths, Jenny did die on the day of the assassination, but was quickly healed by Tenya herself, after which he asked Jenny to go to the elven archer Viannis, also as a staff member, but it sounded as if the elves were asking them to heal Jenny.

Hearing that his daughter's life had deteriorated, Fiat suddenly fell into an ice cellar, and he knew in his heart that the only thing that could make a high-level mage's body suddenly deteriorate was the curse of the sea god.

In the face of the curse of the gods, Jenny has no chance of surviving, even if the legend or demigod himself suppresses it, at most she can save the most basic life.

Thinking of this, Fiat glanced at Rand and found that the assassinated bitter master showed neither resentment nor optimism.

Now the heart of this galloping horse family is frantically calculating the gains and losses, and the loss of a daughter, especially the daughter recognized by the Poseidon clan, is naturally a major loss, but this daughter is not a nail arranged by the Poseidon clan by his side.

Without Jenny, the biggest problem is the loss of the contact person of the Hindukr Galloping Horse, but the relationship with Night Qicheng has eased a lot.

The business between the two began after September, according to Rant, the assassination has already happened, but the business is more than before, even if there has been a conflict between Rand and the sea god's forces in recent days, the relationship between the two families has not been affected, and even several mages of their own family have been recognized as clans by Night Qi City.

After a few thoughts, Fiat made up his mind, and maintained a close relationship with Rand, doing business and fighting as usual, anyway, no matter how powerful the knights of the duke in front of him were, they couldn't come to his Mangrove Island, and no matter how strong the Poseidon clan was, they couldn't go deep into the Galloping Horse Plain.

"Since my daughter is with Princess Halkala, I am sure that the princess will be able to guarantee her safety, and I hope that the Duke will give me an explanation as soon as possible." Fiat, who had calculated the gains and losses, said politely.

"Of course, Marquis, we are all members of the Galloping Horse family, and I will not embarrass Jenny." Rant nodded, and reached an agreement with Fiat.

Although there is some consensus, but between Rand and Fiat, there is no more trust, Rand picked a conversation later, wanting to discuss with Fiat the problem of being a family member of the Galloping Horse family, but was diverted by the old marquis, and the meeting between the two ended politely.

These two days in Rand were like this, spent in the midst of visits and dinners.

On the 32nd, at noon, Rand accepted the invitation of Julian Zhuoqin, that is, Albert's old lover, to attend the drinking party of the Zhuoqin family.

It's not that Rand wants to drag his uncle on a blind date, but mainly that he wants to take this opportunity to go around the imperial capital, especially to go to the market.

According to the practice of the Empire, once the Duke is officially obtained, Rand's travel is almost equivalent to that of a demigod or legend, and he must apply to the local lord or pillar in advance to travel to regions outside the kingdom. On the contrary, demigods and legends from other regions will also apply accordingly when they come to the territory.

Not only going out, but also being greatly restricted in terms of specific itinerary, and you don't have to think about the days of visiting the black market every day like before.

The magic tower of the Zhuoqin family, located in the new city area, as the first top legendary family to follow the god emperor, the mansion of this family occupies an area no less than the workshop land purchased by Rand, and 1 legendary magic tower and 7 magic master towers are a portrayal of the power of this family.

The auditorium, which hosts the reception, is housed in a magnificent building beneath the legendary Pinewood Tower, a magical tower, and the location also expresses the importance of the rand.

At the beginning of the reception, the head of the Zhuoqin family, the legendary mage Jiade Zhuoqin, took Lantra to his side, and the guests in the audience preached the friendly relationship between the two families: "Ladies and gentlemen, the Zhuoqin family, as the most staunch followers of His Majesty, has a deep friendship with the royal family of the galloping horses of all dynasties, starting from the ancestor Zhuoqin, he has been paying attention to the galloping horse plain for a long time, and taking care of the galloping horse students in the tower of purity, and now my granddaughter Julian has witnessed many victories of the Duke of Lante, and in the future, our family will continue to cooperate with Yeqicheng, Let's toast to the Duke of Rand and the Plains of the Galloping Horse! ”

The legendary mage worked so hard, of course, hoping to increase their family's influence within the imperial capital through this drinking party, and Rand also knew this, so he also touted the traditional friendship of the Zhuoqin family to the Galloping Horse family, and did not forget to mention the care that Albert Galloping Horse received during his study in the imperial capital.

The business between the two sides was very hot, but for more practical issues, such as Rand's next magic furnace and the next batch of students from the Tower of Purity who went to Night Qicheng and other key issues, they were not involved.

As soon as he entered the buffet stage, 4 or 5 high-level people took turns to toast around Rant, some of them were silver knights, some were junior magisters, all of them had good facial features and extraordinary conversation, and they began to tout Rant's exploits as soon as they came up.

"Duke Lante, I didn't expect you to have such military exploits at such a young age, you really inherited the excellent bloodline of the Galloping Horse family for thousands of years!"

"Yes, I've heard that you're fighting your dependents alone on the front line, and you can be said to have created a new myth of war."

"I've also heard Julian say that you are not only an expert at warfare, but also have a unique insight into governing the territory!"

This was the first time that Rand was complimented by a group of men at a drinking party, which made him a little confused, but fortunately, the grand mage of the Zhuoqin family, Barser Leclerce Zhuoqin, came to relieve the siege, and he fished out Rand in a few words and sent him to a group of young girls.

Lanter could understand that Barther Leclerc had brought himself to the women of the family on a blind date, but he did not understand the thoughts of the male superiors, until he saw Ben Kaul snickering in the corner, and beside him, Julian Zöchchen was chatting with Albert Galloping Horse.

Between the flints, Rand probably guessed that those men should be Julian's lovers, and Julian, who has the position of a marquis of the palace, is not new to have high-quality faces.

As for just now, it must have been Ben Kaul who wanted to create an opportunity for Albert, and deliberately let out the wind to say that Rand had taken a crush on Julian, and the group of little white faces were afraid that Rand, the duke, had taken down their gold master, so they hurriedly came over to flatter and separate the two by the way.

"Not to mention, my uncle's rivals are of very high quality, at least all of them have dense hair and few wrinkles on their faces." Rand shook his head involuntarily, not knowing whether Albert's dream of marrying into the Zhuo Qin family would break or come true.

"Otherwise, I'll give Albert some factory shares, and if I really marry in the future, I can be a crooked son-in-law or something."
