"Hah!" the sheriff immediately burst out laughing, "another stupid and arrogant fellow, just you people, do you really think you have what it takes to fight for Campbell's lordship?"

"Ridiculous! Ridiculous! You think that the Redfield family is all dead and no one can inherit the territory, and as long as you run to Campbell, the king will canonize the territory to you? Haha! I have never seen a brainless person like you again!"

Although the sheriff's words were obviously mocking, they were indeed true, and even Captain Matt had this opinion, so he frowned, thinking in his heart whether to persuade this young man again, but if it was the other party's character, even if he persuaded him, it would not be of much use.

Leon's face remained unchanged, he waited patiently for the sheriff to finish speaking, then looked at the others, and saw that no one wanted to speak anymore, so he said, "Oh, I'm sorry, I haven't officially introduced myself. ”

"My full name is Leon Redfield, the eldest grandson of Earl Darren Campbell Redfield, the sole bloodline of the Redfield family, and the natural heir, the future Lord Campbell. ”

"So what you just said was wrong, the Redfield family is not dead, I am still alive. ”

There was silence.

Looking at the way these people looked, Leon felt refreshed - this sudden attack really helped to keep his mood happy.

The sheriff who was slapped in the face kept a dumbfounded appearance, his mouth opened in an "O" shape, his eyes were as big as his mouth, and after a while, as if he remembered something, he turned his head and pointed at Leon with a ghostly expression and said to Matt: "Captain Matt, do you hear that? This kid dares to pretend to be the descendant of an earl!"

But Matt didn't respond, his face just changed from shock to doubt, and then from doubt to calm, because he knew that even if someone dared to pretend to be Lord Campbell, he would never dare to say it in front of himself and a noble sheriff, so what the young man said was nine times out of ten true.

"Leon Redfield?" he searched for the name in his memory, and soon had the impression that it had been seen in several pieces of information about the assassination in the army after the Lord's family tragedy in Campbell, and the name was listed as dead at the time.

If this intelligence is wrong, it is equivalent to making a big oolong, and the army's intelligence system will also be very faceless...... However, Earl Campbell also has a blood relative who can inherit the territory, which is a serious event, so I must confirm it again.

"You're the Earl's only grandson, and you're still alive?"

Matt completely ignored the sheriff, who was no longer able to figure out the magnificence, and immediately asked his doubts.

"Yes, I got away with it, and I'm on the run when I first passed through here. ”

"Then why don't you ask for our help?" said Matt, confused.

However, when he saw Leon's smiling expression, he figured it out - the young man who escaped after that incident did not know who to trust and who not to trust, so it was also a sign of caution that he did not take the initiative to ask for help.

And now that the other party has told his identity, he must have relied on it, look at the young people around him, those elves, it is they who beat these self-righteous people in Green Forest Town, and this is just the surface, maybe there will be more powerful people in this team.

He saw that Jack was also in the crowd opposite, and Matt vaguely remembered that the veteran seemed to have fought under the Earl, and his current appearance also proved Leon's identity.

"Leon ......" Matt finished shouting the other party's name, and suddenly it occurred to him that it was likely that the word "adult" would have to be added to the name in the near future.

"You've been gone for two months, and a lot has happened in Campbell in that time, so...... It may not be what you think," Matt said as he hesitated, trying to structure the language to convey himself without being overly obvious.

The identity of this young man on the other side is very tricky, in a legal sense, he is indeed the future Earl of Campbell, and Campbell's range is very large, the position is very important, if Leon can maintain the territory, then the future development is limitless, he knew him at the beginning of his development, this can be said to be an innate advantage, if he maintains a good relationship with Leon, it is equally important for his future development.

But there is a flip side to everything.

Although as long as Leon does not start a rebellion, the king has no right to revoke his title and territory, but these things should not be taken for granted, and there are ways to make you give up this territory yourself, such as material support, such as the struggle between lords, and even those foreign invasions......

If you can't hold on and the young people in the territory make a mess, then the king will have an excuse - to help you change to a smaller, more stable territory, all for your sake, right?

It is estimated that even Li Ang himself will have to agree by that time.

So how can you leave a good impression on the other party without offending the Viscount Anto...... Or the sheriff representing the Earl of Green Mountain, a way of speaking that made Captain Matt think a lot.

However, Li Ang didn't let him worry too much, and said directly: "I know a little about the things in the territory, and I can talk about other things, Viscount Andre...... I guess he also thought that my family had no heir, so he kindly helped me take care of the territory for a while, and when we met, I would thank him and personally send him back. ”

"What a big breath...... Matt took a breath secretly, although everyone knew that Viscount André was a little self-righteous, a little reckless and impulsive, and a little not very easy to use...... Otherwise, it would not be possible to pick this time to run to Campbell and live in Redfield Manor to claim to be a lord, but ...... His grandfather was the Marquis de Baird!

He was the Minister of the Interior of the Kingdom, in charge of trade, taxes, supplies and other important affairs of the entire Kingdom, and although he did not have a fief, he had a very large estate around the royal capital of Chester.

So when Viscount André ran to Campbell, no other nobles entered again, and there was no clear attitude towards this behavior in the royal capital, and many people speculated whether Andrew's behavior was instructed by others, and whether His Majesty the King intended to give Campbell to the Marquis of Baird.

And although you are the heir to the local lord, you have to give Viscount Andrei some face, right?

Captain Matt wanted to continue, but Leon was not much interested, returned to Kubi, and asked, "How did you think about it?"

This strong man has been standing in place since Li Ang told his identity just now, and when Li Ang turned back, he found that he had half his mouth open, his eyes staring straight at him and not knowing where he was looking, completely demented.

Then Kubi seemed to be awakened by the questioning, and his focus slowly adjusted to the front, and he found Leon standing in front of him.

"Oh no, my people stole the gems, not only did I have no way to discipline them, but I also dare to slander my lords, please punish me!"

"Huh......" Li Ang admired in his heart, "It really takes some courage to be a man to be able to do what Kubi is, but if he can say this, he can be regarded as ignoring the sheriff and completely letting go." ”

Although Kubi is treacherous and cunning, he is only a rough man with little knowledge after all, where would he think about things in such detail and comprehensiveness as Matt, for him Leon is the lord of Campbell, and that is enough, enough.

"I'm out for the sake of the lord, it's a big deal to follow the lord to Campbell, after this relationship, won't I have to be in Campbell?" Kubi explained to himself with a "simple" thought.

"I see," Captain Matt said in response to Kubi's words, knowing that Leon didn't want to talk about the territory anymore, after all, he had only met twice, and even if he had anything to rely on, it was impossible for people to appeal to the public here.

"Because there are soldiers involved in this matter, I will report it to the garrison corps truthfully, this is my responsibility as the captain of the garrison, and I ask for your forgiveness. ”

After saying this, Matt looked at the sheriff, the middle-aged man had fallen silent since he had just asked a question and no one answered, and he had never said a word again, and it seemed that he should have figured it out.

Leon knew that Matt's decision to leave this sentence meant that he would not pursue it again, and "reporting truthfully" was also a gesture of favor to himself, of course he had to respond, "I'm sorry that this matter involves the soldiers of the garrison, and I will pay some money and goods to make up for it to express my apologies." ”

Soon, Jeff walked out of the crowd, holding a small money bag in his hand, which rattled as he walked.

"Captain Matt, here are twenty gold coins, please take them. ”

After Jeff finished speaking, Matt was a little surprised in his heart, twenty gold coins is so much?

The soldiers who serve in this kind of place do not have much oil and water, and relatively speaking, there is still a certain degree of danger, so some people will follow the deputy captain to do some private work. Matt was aware of the behavior of these people, but could only turn a blind eye to it many times, as it was already the norm among the garrisons stationed in various border towns.

The soldiers have a lot of wartime allowances, but the salaries in peacetime are really not much, and it is not enough to feed a family of three, and at this time, Leon's subordinates took out twenty gold coins at once, and immediately those wounded soldiers no longer shouted pain, and their eyes looked directly at the money bag in Jeff's hand.

Matt smiled bitterly, if he didn't accept it, he would lose his prestige among these wounded soldiers, so he shook his head and took it, and said, "Thank you for your generosity, Leon, and good luck." ”
