Heroes of Might and Magic: Knight Chapter 178: Harvest
In the Golden Dragon Palace, Ren is still sitting on the highest throne with the old **** present,
The noble officials below remained silent,
Although the law does not punish everyone, under the current system of the kingdom, Ren can't punish these people who sit back and watch the success or failure, but after all, it is a critical moment when everyone does not live and die with the king, which can be regarded as betraying Ren. It's a bit embarrassing to face Ren on the high platform now,
However, Renn did not get angry as many people expected, but appeared very calm,
Probably Ren has seen through the virtues of the kingdom's nobles and officials, and they are just not worthy.
"Your Majesty, Marquis Hirano has arrived."
A waiter next to Renn gently reminded Renn, whose eyes were slightly narrowed, and finally Renn opened his eyes as if he had woken up from sleep.
"Richard, come to the front."
Richard, who had just entered the Golden Dragon Palace, did not find a suitable position and simply stood in the corner behind the team. Unexpectedly, as soon as he stopped, Ren asked him to stand in front.
Looking at the position Ren pointed at, it was almost at the front of the team, just behind the left and right ministers, and standing in front of a bunch of big guys,
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Richard was not polite. Under the gaze of everyone, he simply walked to the front of the hall and stood in that high-status position.
If he comes in and is willing to keep a low profile and stand at the back, that's his business, but since Renn has designated a position, it would be pointless if he still wants to keep a low profile.
"During this rebellion, Ping Yehou Richard had the merit of protecting Wang Jia and was able to defeat the remnants of the rising sun. Everyone should have noticed it. I have decided to increase the reward for Ping Yehou. Do you have any objections?"
Although the previous Marquis Ceremony was interrupted, the main procedures have been completed, and no one has mentioned anything to make up for it. At this time, Richard has completed the procedures and is officially a Marquis.
Ren and everyone now call Richard Marquis,
When he was granted the title of Marquis before, there were still people who stood up to oppose it. Now Richard’s credit is there, and no one can say anything wrong.
If you stand up to oppose again, you have to consider offending both Ren and Richard at the same time,
In a sense, Richard's title as the number one master in the kingdom is quite deceptive. The nobles would rather offend Ren than offend Richard.
"Since no one objects, then bring me the map."
Two waiters brought up the map. It was a map of the entire kingdom, with each piece of land marked with different symbols.
The ones marked in red belong to the kingdom's direct territories, which are mainly concentrated in the central plains and the southern elite areas. These are basically not used to enfeoff lords,
There are also some white-labeled lands that can be used for enfeoffment. There are many white-labeled lands in Northland now.
Those are the noble territories that suffered in the ogre disaster. Most of them have been assigned to Richard. There are still seven or eight small territories that have not been sealed off for the time being.
Ren stared at the map, and with a wave of his hand, he circled all the territories in the North that were still vacant for entrustment.
"This piece of land, together with the previous land, will serve as the territory of the Marquis of Pingye."
The land designated by Renne happens to be adjacent to Richard's original fiefdom. If these territories are to be absorbed, Richard will become a large country on par with the Lanster family in terms of area and population. Noble.
"Also, I heard that Marquis Hirano actually stayed in a hotel when he came to Jinlong City. I will give Marquis Pagat his mansion as well."
"A special gift to Marquis Hirano to go into the palace's inner treasury and select a set of breathing techniques and a set of Qi-entraining techniques."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Richard's thanks are sincere. Just take the Pagat family's house as an example. The centuries-old Marquis Mansion is absolutely in a prime position in Jinlong City, occupying an area in the core area where every inch of land is precious. Still big,
Just selling it would cost tens of thousands of gold, which is equivalent to the wealth of more than a dozen minor nobles in the North.
Not to mention the newly allocated territory to Richard, at least seven or eight viscounts' territory was packaged and given to Richard. Although it suffered some damage, it still had at least a population of nearly half a million,
It saved Richard a lot of effort in slowly encroaching.
There is also a set of breathing techniques and a set of Qi-entraining techniques,
The breathing method is just that. Richard’s own breathing method of the beast is already one of the top breathing methods in the kingdom. There is no need to change it.
But Qingzhi Qi-Entraining Technique obviously can no longer keep up with Richard's progress,
After all, Qing's Qi-Entraining Art can only be considered a weaker first-class Qi-Entraining Art, and can only be practiced to the Earth Knight stage at most. Finding a better Qi-Entraining Art should have been put on the agenda long ago.
The Qi-Entraining Art that can be included in the kingdom's inner treasury should at least be the best among the first-class ones. Maybe there is also a top-level Qi-Entraining Art in it, which can just make up for Richard's current shortcomings in his skills.
"If Marquis Pingye has any other requests, you can ask me. I will definitely satisfy you if I can do it."
Ren's last words were considered polite words. If you are a bit discerning, you should bow to express your gratitude and show your loyalty.
Just when Richard was planning to do this, he suddenly thought of something, so he asked:
"Your Majesty, can I ask for anything?"
"You said, as long as I don't break the kingdom's rules, I can do it."
Ren, or the entire Golden Dragon Kingdom, attaches great importance to rules. This is a habit left over from the time of the first king Aragorn. Of course, rules are meant to be broken in the end, but at least they have to live up to their reputation.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, this matter will not break the rules,
I hope your majesty can marry Princess Messiah to me, and I will treat Princess Messiah like..."
I have made a lot of determination, but the man’s mouth will be used to its fullest now, especially in front of his father-in-law.
"Hahahaha, as long as Messiah is willing, I will have no objection."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Congratulations to the Marquis of Pingye, congratulations to Your Majesty!"
The nobles and officials present began to congratulate quite naturally. No matter how sincere they were, they at least supported the event. They all did a good job.
After everyone's discussion subsided, Renn made arrangements to hunt down the remnants of the Rising Sun and deal with the families involved in the rebellion. He also focused on the punishment of the Pagat family, which was a wake-up call for the nobles below.
Of course, it’s unknown how big the effect will be.
Not long after, everyone gradually dispersed. Time has the magic power to dilute all things. Although the rebellion was fierce, it did not have any substantial impact on the kingdom.
In addition to the smell of blood that has not dissipated from the square, everyone is reminded that there was a **** battle here not long ago...
…
"Sir Richard, this is the inner treasury of the palace. You can only choose one breathing method and one Qi-entraining technique to take away."
After the ministers left, Richard did not leave with him. Instead, he followed the waiter to a remote courtyard in the palace...
