CHAPTER XLIII

Long and Xiao are still unwilling. Each year, the knight selects twenty outstanding apprentice knights to undergo trials before they can be eligible to be rewarded by the king as a knight or for meritorious service on the battlefield. The knight class is the first combat force of the country and can have their own family coat of arms. has its own fiefdom. Most of the fiefdoms are wooden castles of no more than 300 square meters. The castle can be self-sufficient, with two guards, i.e. retinues. A butler, a cook. An old mother. Food and drink are all supplied by villages or countries. With the New Year's salary, you can go in and out of some high-end places. It is also one of the forces that the aristocracy wants to fight for. Knights receive hereditary rights if they are rewarded by the king. A knight is not only a proof of strength, but also a gentleman. If you make a great achievement, or pay enough gold, you may be promoted to a viscount, and it is not easy for the knight class to mix with the baron, of course, there are exceptions.

The two boys had no hope of seeing the knight. I had to focus on the honorarium. Your Royal Highness, how much is our honorarium? Prince: 100 gold coins per person. Small: It's only a hundred. Your life is also too worthless. Long: His Royal Highness the Prince doesn't have enough to pay the tuition. You're too stingy, aren't you? Prince: If you don't want it, just give it to me, it's too little. I can only get 100 gold coins on a month's night. Okay, don't look at me like that, if I remember correctly, we didn't pass a few of our trials, I'll figure out how to let the three of us pass? Small: That's what you said. Well, it is better to give you one of the two pieces, and give us the gold coins first, so that we will not have too many dreams at night. Xiaofu sat on the chair, great, I don't have to worry about those fifty wolves, then please Your Highness. Wei Wei An came over, what are you talking about, talking so happily? Long: Let's talk about how to thank you, beautiful and noble Wei Wei'an. Right. Small: Yes, you're our lady of luck. You are always there for us in times of crisis. Vivien: Gods, can you please stop talking to me in that tone. I'm your friend. I can't ignore it. Dragon: Wei Wei'an. I owe you my life. I will definitely repay you. Small: Me too. What's going on with you. Just come to me. This kid can't do it. I'll do it all for you, too. Dragon: What do you mean I can't do it? Small: If you can't do it, Vivien will come to me. What's wrong with that, could it be hanging from a tree? Wei'an smiled and smiled, okay, don't make any noise. Then even if you promised me, you will not regret it. Boys must be counted when they speak. The dragon and the small swear are there to swear. Wei Wei'an: So you guys came and invited me to do a dance. She smiled and held out a hand, and I couldn't wait. In the candlelight, she is even more charming and moving. The three boys almost said in unison.

At night, the two of them were drunk and smoky and returned to the room. They opened the small box containing the gold coins. The prince who slammed the door gave us a hundred gold coins. That's not even a fraction of what the bandit wanted. What is the fraction of a small hiccup?Dragon: Stretch out five fingers and count hard. The dragon rubbed their eyes, and I didn't have enough fingers to lend you to count yours. Grass! Xiaoxiao also stretched out a hand, and the dragon tried to count it, but he didn't understand it. Forget it, it's not a one-handed business anyway. We're half of us. Where to put you, if my sister sees it. Make sure that there is not a single copper left.

It was almost noon the next day when the two of them got out of bed. Touching his still-aching head, yawning and stretching. Why are you going to go today? Why are you going to report to the school? Forget it, I think I'd better stay at home for a few days. How can I go back so quickly. Let's wait for news from the prince. So what are we going to do now? Dragon: Ah. Good offer. I can sleep until tomorrow. But my stomach seems to be hungry, and when I fall asleep, I am not hungry. The two of them just wanted to lie down. Lingling rushed in, punched the dragon with a heartbeat, and then kicked the dragon on the bed. Xiaofu sat on the bed obediently in fright.

You two boys, what's the matter? You're back so soon. I heard Merial say that you came back drunk in the middle of the night. What's going on? Did you pass it? The dragon is holding his stomach, sister, your punches are getting heavier and heavier. If you break in like this, aren't you afraid that we won't wear anything? Lingling: What are you talking about when you clench your fists? Do you still want to be beaten? I grew up watching you grow up with bare buttocks, what I haven't seen before, hmm! Hurry up and tell me what happened to you yesterday? I said you weren't allowed to get drunk. You'd better give me a reasonable explanation. Long: I briefly told Sister Ah what happened in the past few days. I see. I thought you didn't pass the test and went there to spend a lot of wine. If you two dare to give me a place that doesn't go anywhere. Let me know that it will make you look good. Do you hear that?Dragon: What's the wrong place?Lingling: Stretch out two fists and push back and forth on the dragon's head. Is it the place where you always squint your eyes and look in when you pass by!Dragon: Ah... I know, I know, sister. It's time to let go. Lingling: Okay, you all get up for me to eat. Don't be sleeping. Lilith and Evene: they're worried about you. Tell them about you. I made some decanting soup. Wash up and come out and eat. I'll give you five minutes. Got it.

The two of them sorted out their clothes, and it seemed that they couldn't sleep. Your sister is getting stronger and stronger. Are you brothers and sisters? Isn't she studying theology? How can gratitude be more violent than before? What did your sister learn in the temple? Dragon: Ha! Ask my sister to go. I don't know! Hurry up, be careful that you're getting beaten. Two people sat in chairs and watched the food on the table. Dissatisfied, he smashed the oatmeal in the bowl with a whistle. Sister. How can there only be potatoes and bread today. Why is there no meat left? Lingling: You don't know how expensive food is now, it's nice to have something to eat. Long: Sister, we don't have to be so frugal. Ling: If you don't be frugal, you will run out of money sooner or later, and what will happen to Lilith, Evene, and Merial's tuition fees? What will we do with your tuition fees? Can we rely on the poor money that the king has rewarded us to fill our stomachs? Long: Sister is not so miserable. Don't you still have a lot of gold coins there? Aunt Nia still has a small amount of gold coins left. yes, slightly. Xiaofu: I think it's better to keep your mouth shut. Lingling: I don't care, and I don't want to hear it. You two don't want to ask me for a copper coin from me today. You can't pity them, Aunt Nia. Be sure to let them know how hard it is to make money. Aunt Nja nodded in agreement. If you don't have the money, will you buy Merial a birthday present?: Of course. That's what you say. Of course we pull the hook hook. Xiaofu: Rest assured, Meria. When did my brother lie to you? It's your birthday in 10 days, and my brother always remembers it. Meria smiled brightly, and she didn't allow Rippy. Lilith: Merial is going to be a year older again. I'll have a gift for you then. Evene: Merial tells my sister what you want. My sister will buy it for you. Lingling: You two boys don't expect me to pay for you. Xiaofu: I put my hand in my pocket, but I found that the small box containing the gold coins was missing. I reached into the other pocket, and found that it was empty. Damn Xiaofu cursed. He stared at the dragon with murderous eyes. You kid did it, right? You don't have garlic for me. Come out for me.

The two of them came to the door, where was the bounty of yesterday's hundred gold coins? Dragon: Just kidding, I said yesterday where I put you, what do you mean? What do you mean, it's gone. Even the small box containing the gold coins is gone. It's not just the little box that's gone. I don't even have a fucking one on my body. The dragon narrowed his eyes and looked at Xiaofu. Are you kidding me? Who is kidding you, did you secretly take it in the middle of the night?, I'll take your money. You're looking for it. Xiaofu opened his coat pocket for the dragon to see. Found a large hole in the right pocket. The money fell out? No, damn it. What kind of joke are you really not taking the little fuhu asked suspiciously? Long: We are together every day, and you still doubt me. Will it fall into the room? How could it be, the two boys went back to the room in a fit of anger and looked around, but found nothing. Dejected and hungry, he lay down on the bed. I can't remember what happened when we came back. Dragon: I don't remember either. If you fall outside, you don't know if it's cheap. Looking at the dragon slightly, there must be some article in this. Did your sister take all the money? Long: Why are you looking at me like that, I know. You go and ask her. Small: It's better to be taken by your family, and it's better to let someone else pick it up. But when the money arrives at your sister, if you want to get out, it can only be a dream. I don't have a single one, how much do you have on me? How much, all my money has been robbed by the robbers. You saw what I was wearing when you saw me. Xiaofu: Damn, it's over, what about Merial's birthday present? Dragon: I'm the same, I'm thinking of something else. Why don't we tie up the prince and ask him for a ransom of 500,000 gold coins? I'd love to see how long your tongue can stretch when you're hanged. Dragon: You're so interesting. Small: It's Merial's birthday. What do you want to give? We're cleaner than our faces now. Dragon: yes. It's really sad. Small: What kind of gift do you say to a thirteen-year-old girl that she will be happy? Long: I thought about it. Give her a thirteen-year-old boy. I don't care about you.
