Release that Witch Chapter 571: Duke and father
...
"This **** daughter!" northern region Duke Calvin grabbed the tea cup on the table and wanted to fall to the ground, halfway it and stopped. This cup is made of good crystal glass, which is about two to three gold royal. He is really A bit reluctant.
After thinking about it for a long time, I slowly retracted my hand and put the cup back in place.
This feeling of gains and losses makes him even more depressed.
The letter from Edith was evenly spread on the table. He never expected that Your Majesty would directly take back all the noble's subcontracting power. What's more unexpected is that his daughter who can always take advantage of it is always able to respond. In view of the Your Majesty's conditions, I also advised myself to recognize situation and not to resist stubborn resistance.
Look at the word, it makes him seem like a prisoner!
Duke thought angrily, did this daughter turn her elbow outwards!
"Sir, has anything happened?" The personal guard outside the door probably heard the sound, and the probe asked.
"Get out, don't bother me!"
Reluctant to be angry with the cup, Calvin immediately vented his anger to personal guard, and the door was quickly closed. He gasped for a long time before returning his gaze to the letter paper.
If you follow His Majesty The King, you will no longer be the master of Northern Lands, at least impossible will be as good as it is now. I just resolved Hawse Family and Lesta Family, and finally I can enjoy the feeling of being in charge of the whole territory. I did not expect to return to the original point soon, it should be a step back from the original point.
Why not follow Your Majesty?
It's clear on the letter.
Then Kohl and I are finished, he will be imprisoned forever, just like the heirs of Duke Ryan. And my end will only be worse. How do you think the Fourth Prince used to treat an irresistible Duke daughter? I can think of no less than a hundred ways to humiliate men. When he gets tired, I will be thrown into a dungeon or barracks, and your Pearl of the Northern Lands will be covered in dust.
But don't worry about me, because you're not much better, father. His army will soon come to the city. I bet your vassal and Knight will not be able to support it for a long time. Don't say Duke until then, even ordinary civilians can't do it. How would you make that choice?
The familiar tone Calvin can even imagine the sneer look of Edith when writing this letter. Whenever she talks about failure, she always describes her fate in an extremely calm tone, as if waiting for the day. As long as her daughter talks in this direction, it will be difficult for him to fight it. Obviously it is a threat, but Calvin has never been able to fight it.
What's more, Edith Kant is his biological daughter after all, and the only crystallization of him and his first wife.
Despite her exaggerated tone, she really cannot deny the possibility.
Meanwhile, he often hears about Fourth Prince.
Thinking of this, Duke gradually calmed down.
But then again, are those dark steel machines really as magical as she says?
In the three letter papers, her daughter used a whole page to describe what she did wrong in Border Town, what she saw and heard in Neverwinter City.
It is twice as much as Your Majesty Roland.
She claims that they have power beyond imagination and can easily do things that ordinary people cannot achieve. As long as they rely on the new King, Northern Lands can introduce these black iron giants that can bring terrific changes to the territory.
It can be seen that Edith values this stuff very much.
Finally, she also suggested that he issue a formal oath document/secretary to Your Majesty to show the surrender of northern region, and send some literate servants to never learn the rules and administrative methods of City Hall, so as not to have nothing to do with the emerging system. Know.
In addition, I hope that you can clearly and correctly instruct Kohl to stay in Neverwinter City, instead of just being soft-hearted and letting him come back will not do him any good. If possible, send him after Rance adulthood. Under the situation that the title cannot be inherited, only those who are adapted to the new policy of Your Majesty can continue the Kant family.
Your daughter, Edith.
Calvin took a long sigh, put away the stationery, and rolled out a new White Paper.
Now that Edith has made a decision, he has to believe her intentions and write a letter to Your Majesty to be loyal to the new Kingdom Capital.
But as a Duke, he must make his last efforts in his own way. If the interests of the two are tightly tied together, Calvin will undoubtedly be much more secure.
For example ... let your daughter be Queen.
*******************
Neverwinter City border area, next to Scarlet Water River.
The sun is falling into the mountains a little bit, and the surface of the river is dyed brilliant golden through the afterglow of mountain ridge.
The smoke from the shack has risen repeatedly, and the fragrant porridge has made Snake Tooth drool.
Closer, he even smelled a hint of meat.
"I'm here!" As soon as he entered the camp, Tiger Claw saw him, "Come here!"
Snake Tooth walked to him, "Why, have meat today?"
"Yeah, you missed the notification too late when you came back. This is the reward of Lord feudal lord."
Snake Tooth rubbed some sore shoulders, "What's the reward? The residential area on your side is a long way from completion."
"It's Kingdom Highway completed!" Someone around came to shout, "The border area and Longsong region are finally connected together. Listen to them. It used to take three days, but now it takes only one day to get there!" /
So that's it, Snake Tooth nodded. When a major project is completed, they can drink a bowl of meat porridge, as advertised on the square, and come to the border area for two months. The construction team has not sent less than one. Servings of food without any deductions. Now he has fourteen silver royals in his hands, and by the end of this month, there will be seven more.
If he can collect an gold royal, he can pick up a house at City Hall, and become a full resident of Neverwinter City, no longer an anonymous Mouse.
But to really buy that house, he has to work at least twenty years.
Of course, Snake Tooth is confident to find higher paid jobs later ... such as furnace workers, or masoners.
Everything seems to be moving in the right direction.
The only regret is that he still hasn't seen White Paper.
"When you get the congee, remember to eat quickly," Tiger Claw whispered in his ear, "otherwise you won't be in a good position."
"What ... location?" Snake Tooth confused.
"To celebrate the completion of Kingdom Highway, there will be a new drama staged in the square tonight. I heard that it is called" City of Love ", and the Western Region star will also be go on stage. Oh my **** ... I can't wait any longer!
"Go find someone else," he said, "I feel a bit tired, I don't want to move today."
"Yes, but today's premiere," Tiger Claw smiled mysteriously, "Local people know that when Star Flower Theatrical Group premieres, adults feudal lord will also appear with witch, maybe you can see White Paper!" (To be continued., Your support is my greatest motivation.) 17-02-0611: 18: 01
