Chapter 189: The Tolerant Lord

Since he "recognized" the identity of the viscount, of course, he had to show enough "respect", so Andre was not subject to any physical restrictions, but Li Ang was blocking the door of the carriage and talking to him intentionally or unintentionally, and it was impossible to run anywhere.

There is nothing new in the opening remarks, it is nothing more than to express his admiration for the viscount and his admiration for the marquis, this remark Li Ang seems to be very sincere, but Andre knows that what this kid thinks in his heart is not the same thing as what he says.

Next is the main topic, Li Ang glanced at Andre, who had regained his composure, and said: "Although we haven't met before, I have always heard of the Viscount's enthusiasm, just like this time I left for a while, and the Viscount also made a special trip to help me take care of the territory, which is enough to prove that the rumors are indeed true, and the Viscount's affection really makes me a little embarrassed." ”

Li Ang called Andre's behavior of occupying the territory escrow, which gave the other party some face, but if it was really investigated, in fact, Andre's behavior was not too inappropriate.

During the period when Leon did not show up, he was classified as "death", and both Campbell and the lord's estate itself were "ownerless" lands, and anyone could come and go at will, let alone these nobles. If he had to find fault, André's biggest problem was simply to overstep his status by collecting taxes from the surrounding towns without the king's authorization.

Therefore, Leon wisely did not pursue the previous matter, but instead gave Andrei a step to properly shorten the distance between the two people.

Of course, Andrei instructed the cavalry to launch an attack on Leon and his party, and this matter was put aside for the time being.

The young viscount's face was indeed much better, his waist gradually straightened, and his eyes lit up.

"Yes, I'm going to take care of it for you, or the mob from the Pale Mountains would have rushed in!"

Andre's brain turned very quickly in this situation, and he immediately followed Li Ang's words and said that even the fact that the mob did not impact the manor was taken out by him.

However, his casual remark caused Li Ang to think, the lord's manor is not far from the nearest border, and it takes more than half a day to arrive on horseback, and the enemy who invaded the border has harassed several surrounding villages and towns, why has he never been near the manor?

Could it be that they knew that there was a nobleman and hundreds of cavalry stationed in the manor, so they deliberately avoided this seemingly defenseless place?

If this is the case, it will be a bit troublesome, because this situation indicates that the mob and the aborigines must have the corresponding information channels to know the general situation in the territory, so they did not come blindly, but a planned and organized invasion, indicating that there must be someone behind it.

"Who is the person who delivered the news?" Li Ang's face flashed in front of his eyes, "Nine times out of ten, this person is the person, he can stay as if nothing happened after colluding with him inside and outside, and then run to attach himself to Viscount Andre, there must be a plan." ”

However, what is the plan, with the very little and scattered information in Li Ang's mind at present, he can't make an accurate judgment, and the current urgency is to reduce the situation of the attack on the border first, so that the border can be restored to calm, so as to stabilize the feelings of the border people, and at the same time, it can also block the mouths of those big people in the royal capital.

While Li Ang was thinking about it, he was not idle, and said to Andre: "That's right! Thanks to the help of Mr. Viscount to garrison the manor, those murderous mobs did me not dare to attack, and it really helped me a lot, although we have not met before, but I think we will become friends in this matter." ”

"Are you right?" asked Leon, looking directly at the other party.

Andre was a little stupid, he just made an excuse casually, but he didn't expect that the other party not only agreed lightly, but also made a big fuss, and raised himself to a very high position in a few words.

"Is this man a fool who doesn't understand anything?" Andre thought with some malice, but Leon's statement did him no harm, so when the viscount saw that the other party's clear gaze was still on him, he quickly nodded in agreement.

Leon was also satisfied, and then he changed his words, stretched out his hand and pointed to the tax collector who was squatting on the ground with his head in his hands outside the car, and said: "But there is something wrong with some of Mr. Viscount's men, who know who I am, but they run back and talk nonsense to you, so that we have a quarrel between us, and I almost mistook Mr. Viscount for a robber who broke into the manor." ”

When he said this, Leon paused, then coughed and continued, "Speaking of which...... Although it was a misunderstanding, I still regret what just happened, and I am sorry for causing some losses to Lord Viscount, but this result of them will not damage our relationship, and if anyone uses this incident to provoke the friendship we already have in the future, I will strongly condemn them!"

"I'm talking a lot about this kind of diplomatic language......" Leon secretly gave himself a thumbs up, then stopped and waited for the other party's response.

Andre was so excited, if it wasn't for the fact that he wanted to stand up and dance in the carriage, or hug Leon and kiss them.

The thing he had been worried about was the attack he had just instructed the cavalry to launch, because it could not be explained to him in any way, and although the other party had always been very friendly, who knew what he was thinking?

Once Leon reported this matter to the royal capital, even if his grandfather, Marquis Baird, mediated in the middle to make a big deal small, he would definitely make Andre suffer a lot for the sake of pretence, and Leon's fluttering words helped him find an excuse, although it was a bad excuse, but for Viscount Andrew, as long as it was an excuse.

"Right...... Yes, yes!" Viscount André was so agitated that he could not speak very sharply, but he nevertheless strongly agreed with Leon's words, and highlighted the incompetence and insidiousness of the tax collector, and finally he said: "Alas! Blame me for the fact that I was only concerned about Campbell's safety, so I decided to send troops to the test, but fortunately you and your men were not harmed!"

"Huh?" Leon was amazed at the other party's talent for climbing the pole, "Can you say such a thing?"

However, this development did not deviate from his original purpose, because the fact that the viscount sent soldiers to launch an attack was actually not a matter for him at all, and none of his own people were injured, but most of the soldiers on the other side were lost, and he didn't dare to raise a half-word objection to this, so it was needless to say who suffered.

And he is likely to get some benefits from this, speaking of which, the biggest role in this matter is that Zhuo Ning, Li Ang is quite a little crying and laughing about this.

Then he felt a silence in the carriage, and he came back to his senses to see that André had stopped, looking at him with a mixture of pity, pleading, anticipation, and so on.

"Yes, Mr. Viscount's dedication to the country is really commendable, and it is worth forgiving for making some mistakes in his eagerness!"

Andre finally waited for what he wanted, knowing that he should no longer have to worry about the cost of this matter, and his whole body was relieved, no matter what would happen when he returned, but at this time he was full of gratitude to the young lord.

Although Andre was a little dull, he also understood that Li Ang deliberately gave a step down in the name of the tax officer, of course he knew that the whole thing was provoked by Zhuo Ning, but seeing that the other party had never mentioned Zhuo Ning, and thinking of Zhuo Ning's table just now, he found that this Redfield family's housekeeper must have some grievances with Li Ang, and it would not be an ordinary grievance.

He used to think that the other party let him go because he was afraid of his grandfather Baird, but now it seems that catching Zhuo Ning is also one of the reasons, thinking that it was this hateful person who provoked an attack on Li Ang, Andre's anger did not come to a place. Even if Leon didn't want to mention it, he felt that he had a duty to remind him sideways.

"They have been by their master's side for a long time, and they think that their relationship has become unusual, so they dare to speak and coax, and this time they will definitely not end up well!"
