Chapter 110: New Followers (Asking for Votes)
Li felt that she might be able to save her again.
So, cautiously asked vaguely, "...... To people, or to horses? ”
The knights answered her question with silence.
It's just the bubbles above their heads, revealing the biggest secret of the royal capital.
Ellie Lee: "......"
Okay, she got it.
No wonder these knights swallowed their anger, and only today did they remember to switch to the duchess after giving Matthew their hooves for so long in the royal capital.
Co-authored yes, bumped into the life stain of the top boss.
It's a sad story, for the 16 Golden Knights.
It's also a sad story, for the horses in the stables.
Well, but it's a happy story, for Li Ellie, who looks at the shovel and covets the 16 Golden Knights.
A knight clutched his three-cornered hat stiffly, "Madam, can I ask you for something......
Li Ali said: "You say." ”
The knight said, "We bring the horses...... They are all very valuable breeds, and we fled for our lives along the way, and the horses did not eat a full meal......"
As he spoke, he lowered his head in some confusion and clenched his hands into fists.
As a Golden Knight, he was so disgraced that he didn't give his mount a full meal, which was too much shame for a Golden Knight.
Li Elli immediately commanded: "Conrad, the horses brought by the knights, feed them with the best feed. Also, call Edward for a moment. ”
Conrad immediately went down to do errands.
Li Aili said to the knights, "Of course, these horses were brought by you, and they will always belong to you. ”
Li Aili saw that she gave an eye medicine to someone in the royal capital, "I will never do anything to deprive you of your private property, and I believe that my duke will not allow such a thing to happen." ”
The knights' eyes were red.
"In this way, it is also very hard for everyone to 'hurry', so go and rest first."
Immediately, uneasy bubbles began to bubble up above the knights' heads.
It was the first time that Li Aili had seen such an insecure Golden Knight.
She immediately spoke out to reassure, "Don't worry, all I need to consider is the treatment I want to provide to you in the future." ”
With this, the knights were relieved and followed the valet of the castle down to rest.
Li Aili and Edward's kung fu couldn't help but think about the current situation of the royal capital.
Sigh, really sigh.
After the medicinal properties subsided, the first thing His Majesty Harry wanted to kill was probably the knights who desperately kept their horses chaste from him.
Secondly, it is the horses that want to be killed.
But now the situation is that both men and horses have reached the dukedom.
and His Majesty the King has seen the unsightly black history.
It is estimated that the only one who can vent his anger to His Majesty is the unlucky spy who has eaten kickbacks and cannot be found in the south, east, and northwest of Ba Jinkeng.
Hey, may the God of Light bless his old man when he is all right.
Edward pushed the door open, "You're looking for me?" ”
"Sit, Edward." ”
"Do you know the people who came to the castle today?"
Knight Edward said, "Madam, they have driven in more than a hundred thoroughbreds, and it is difficult for anyone in the whole castle not to know." ”
Ellie Lee: "......"
Good fellow, this is a pot of stables in the palace.
"The 16 Golden Knights wanted to defect to the Duke, but the Duke seems to have pushed them to me." Li Aili said.
"I'd be happy to take these sixteen Mr. Knights."
Edward's expression became solemn.
"IMHO."
"The knights of the Royal Order have sworn allegiance to the king."
"Let's not talk about whether they came to the dukedom with the purpose of spying on intelligence."
"If it's really like what you say, they are all 'black knights' who have betrayed their masters.
My advice is, please don't take in these 'Black Knights' who have no place on the continent.
They should be rats in the gutter, not worthy of your mercy and favor! ”
Edward Knight added with a grim face, "Moreover, they actually robbed the last master's stable, which is appalling!" There is no knightly quality! ”
Li Li: "......, "No, you believe them, there is something inside here."
However, Li Ellie really didn't expect Edward's reaction to this incident to be so strong.
Or is it the error caused by her habit of thinking in the thinking pattern of her previous life.
The golden knight who 'jumped ship' from the royal capital, with the experience of his previous life, is a high-end talent who has changed jobs.
But in this world, the knight who jumps ship is the betrayer of the master, and he is the 'black knight' that everyone shouts and beats.
It is a pest that has been 'blacked out by the industry'.
No wonder those golden knights were sad...... I almost cried tears of joy when I received her 'offer to hire'.
This is her first major test as a 'decision-maker'.
Li Ellie glanced up at Edward.
[I hope the owner will not be soft-hearted...... The Black Knight must not stay. 】
The opinion of Edward Knight is the general opinion of the people of this world.
At the same time, Knight Edward also genuinely has her interests at heart.
The question is, she doesn't want to give up 16 golden strong laborers, so how should she deal with this?
Li Aili slowly finished the tea in the teacup.
As she put down the empty glass, she slowly smiled at the nervous Edward, deleted the words prepared in advance in her stomach with one click, and regenerated a 'speech' that conformed to the common sense of this world.
"That's why I'm relieved to call you over, Edward."
Edward: "? ”
Li Ellie: "You see, if they hadn't had this betrayal experience, I hired 16 Golden Knights without any stain and handed them over to you to manage, do you have the confidence to manage them well?" ”
Edward, the silver knight, said embarrassedly, "Madam, I'm afraid I'm not up to the task. ”
Li Aili said meaningfully: "So, do you understand now?" ”
Edward looked at the wise lady in bewilderment.
"You don't need to accept them as companions. ”
"I'm not going to let them pledge allegiance like I do."
Why persuade the faithful to accept the unfaithful?
This is logic solidification.
"Think it's the helper I hired for you."
"Think of yourself as shepherds, and they are sheep."
"The shepherd is not a companion to the sheep, the shepherd only needs to manage the flock well and seek benefits from the flock."
Knight Edward seemed to understand, but he didn't.
But in short, a new door to life opened in his mind.
Li Aili put down the empty teacup and smiled slightly.
"Just like Ba Jin Niu's hoof, who works in an alchemy shop, I don't need him to be a noble minotaur, I just need him to create benefits for me."
"As long as the benefits created by Ba Jin are big enough." I don't care how many 'lust potions' he sells behind my back.
Edward came to his senses.
He stood up abruptly, "Ma'am, I know how to do it!" ”
Ellie Lee: "That's great......"
Before he finished speaking, Edward blushed and said in a surging mood: "I'll take care of them, and by the way, think about how to let them create value for Mrs.!" ”
Ellie Lee: "......"
With that, Edward strode away excitedly.
Today's unexpected harvest of 16 Golden Knight workers.
Li Ellie sighed.
This is a golden knight, Arthur should still be short of a golden knight.
Unfortunately, Arthur's Order was not destined to accept the 'Black Knights'.
Work with her, but if you join the Knights......
Ah, iniquity.
A certain king asked 16 golden knights to raise horses at every turn.
The Balk Knight is also of the Golden Rank, but has become the head of the Blue Onyx Order.
……
At dinner, Ellie invited Edward to a 'working meal' in the dining room on the south side of the castle.
"Ask the knights what their ideal salary would be for a month."
Edward didn't understand, he was shocked, "Do you still want to pay the 'sheep' a salary?" ”
Li Ellie: "Raising sheep, don't you also have to feed grass?" ”
Edward: "......"
Li Aili estimated that the knights with low self-esteem would not answer this question either.
She said, "In this way, you can go to the adventure guild in the city and ask how much it will cost you to hire a golden knight in a year." Then they are paid at that price. ”
"If they refuse, ask them what they plan to feed the horses with. Good horses have to eat oats, otherwise they will lose weight. ”
"Oh, by the way, you prepare, by the way, let me inform everyone, let's leave tomorrow and go to the Harpy Fortress."
……
After a busy day, it was time to go to bed.
As soon as Li Ali was free, all she could think about was the kiss in the carriage!!!
She decided to completely forget about it before!!
They all slept on the south side!!
