"Yes, in this way the Black Iron Family will be the first family to express surrender!"
"But at your birthday celebration last time, I saw that Yulik seemed to be quite familiar with the second prince. The two were talking and laughing. How could he be so ruthless?" Nalant was a little confused.
"Well... the two of them did have some contact in the past, but I don't think a person like the second prince who even killed his own brother would care about this!" Although Stella is also the heir to the earl, because she is a woman, she and
These heirs and heirs did not have close relationships with each other.
On the contrary, he is more familiar with the female heirs of various earls.
"Yeah!" Nalant nodded and said nothing more.
The main reason why he had such doubts was because there was still a trace of doubt as to whether Quint was killed by the eldest prince, and there seemed to be some truth in what the prince said to him that day.
Of course, this matter has now been revealed, and all the blame has been placed on the second prince, so it has nothing to do with him.
But while he and Stella continued to talk, he felt another gaze, so he turned his head to look again.
But this time, he found that it was Natasha who was looking at him.
Natasha was sitting in a beautiful luxury carriage. Yaoyao looked at him and smiled charmingly at him.
Because the eldest prince had just died, and there were still some scandals between Nalant and Natasha due to Qiu Zheng's drama, so in order to take into account the face of the royal family, she could not come out to see him off openly.
Nalant had no objection to this and also gave Natasha a look of caution.
"Let's go!"
At the same time, Bernard finally said goodbye to all the nobles.
"Yes, sir!"
"Set off!"
Immediately, the Tulip family's team began to head south.
Nalant finally nodded towards Natasha as a farewell, and then rode the white dragon to follow the team and set off.
There was a carriage in his team, and it was a luxurious carriage with exquisite workmanship, gilt and silver, which was a thank-you gift from the Frank family.
However, now that the earl is riding a horse, he is naturally embarrassed to slip into the carriage.
Finally, the group of people drifted away and finally disappeared from Natasha's sight.
"Narant, I will miss you!"
Natasha looked at the team in the south that had disappeared on the horizon and murmured, then returned to the royal capital in a carriage.
…
Next, Narant and his party headed south.
Because they were not encumbered by infantry, it only took them a week to reach the Tulip Castle under rapid horseback.
After arriving at Tulip City, Nalant did not return to the Storm Territory immediately.
Because he was still waiting for Bernard's official title of baron and the reward of the new territory.
In fact, apart from him, the Tulip Castle is also very lively now, because many nobles have not returned directly to their territory, but are also waiting for Bernard's return in the Tulip City.
This is also the practice in previous years. After the autumn expedition every year, the reward banquet will be held before returning.
As for whether this would waste too much time, they didn't wait long in the Tulip City, because they brought ordinary guards with them when they returned, and their march was very slow.
Bernard and Nalant worked hard. Even though they stayed in the royal capital for a few days, they arrived at Tulip City within the same time as the nobles. The difference between them was not more than three or two days.
After Bernard returned, he did not want to delay the return of the vassals to the territory. They arrived at Tulip Castle in the early morning and prepared to hold a celebration banquet in the evening.
…
"Lilia, this dress is nice, but Sir, I don't remember that I haven't customized this new dress before, right?" At midnight, Nalant stood up from the comfortable big bed with his arms stretched out, and the fatigue from traveling these days was gone.
And empty.
Then he started to get up under the service of his personal maid Lilia.
The little maid Lilia took out a purple dress embroidered with gold patterns and put it on for him.
Nalant has been a noble lord for a long time, so he can still distinguish between good and bad dresses. Now that he sees this new dress, both the fabric and workmanship are several grades higher than his previous ones.
"Sir, this was just sent by Miss Lina. It was said that Miss Stella asked the master tailor in the palace to make it when she was in the royal capital, specifically for tonight's celebration banquet!
"It turns out Stella prepared it!" Nalant immediately nodded in understanding.
Thinking again that I can get the hereditary title tonight and will become a 'real noble' in the future, it is very necessary to wear a good outfit today.
Not to mention, this royal tailor is different. After putting on this gorgeous dress, his already handsome appearance becomes even more prosperous.
After dressing neatly and hanging his sword on his waist, Narant walked downstairs with a graceful step.
As soon as I came downstairs, I heard the greetings from Boris and Rey.
"Hey, Narant, where was this dress of yours made?" Boris and Rael both wore green from head to toe today, which is simply called a green dress.
When the two saw his dress, they immediately noticed the silk texture and fine craftsmanship, and were immediately surprised.
"Made in the royal capital!" Nalant replied simply.
"Tsk, tsk, we haven't even worn such an exquisite dress yet! But, Narant, why don't you choose green silk? This purple is too ordinary, it's a waste of such good tailoring skills!"
"I like purple!" Narant couldn't complain about the nobles' attitude that green is more valuable.
If he had a camera, he would really like to take a photo album of the two of them so that they can be "famous throughout history" and open the eyes of future generations far away.
Immediately, the three people talked and laughed and headed towards the main castle.
From time to time, we would meet other minor nobles on the road, and their attitude towards Nalant was no longer the casual greeting.
Instead, she followed him very familiarly and joined him in the chat with Boris and others.
After all, even if we don't talk about Nalant's life-saving grace to them, with the ability that Nalant has shown now, he will definitely be the target of everyone's friendship.
"Sir Narant, your heroic appearance is really impressive. The scene on the battlefield that day is still deeply etched in my mind!"
"Yes! Unfortunately, it was a bit far away at that time, so I couldn't hear the conversation between Sir Nalant and you at that time. However, I heard that Sir Nalant was facing several golden knights from the Northern Principality alone without fear, and he also
Being able to calmly and calmly force the Northern Principality to withdraw its troops, think about it, this is a feat!"
"Yes, that's the Golden Knight. If I say it, I won't be afraid of your ridicule. I'm afraid just meeting one of them will scare you into weakness!"
"Haha! Yes, I will be soft-hearted. Therefore, Sir Nalant's heroic reputation is now known to everyone. We cannot compare!"
Suddenly, with Nalant as the center, more than 20 minor nobles gathered around him.
Everyone in the conversation praised Nalant's bravery during the Autumn Campaign and praised him for single-handedly resolving the danger to the principality's army.
And Narant knows that keeping a low profile is the way to go. When he hears these compliments, he just replies modestly, saying things like 'I just can't help it', 'It's just a coincidence' and other modest words.
In this way, all the nobles admired him even more. Not only was he young and capable, but most importantly, he was not arrogant.
When Nalant saw so many nobles gathered around him, he suddenly remembered the invasion of dark creatures two months later.
At that time, the back pages of all nobles will be invaded. Although the degree is different, I still feel that it is necessary to give everyone a reminder.
So he thought for a moment and said with a smile: "Everyone, do you believe in the revelation of the God of Glory? It's the kind in dreams!"
"The revelation of the God of Glory in the dream? Sir Nalant, although we all know that the things in the dream are all false, but you are the God of Glory who favors the nobles, so if there is really any truth, I think
You still need to think carefully about it."
The nobles were stunned for a moment, then thought about it and answered.
"So that's it. Although you guys say that I am a nobleman favored by the God of Glory, which is flattering me, but I really need to take the scene in my dream seriously this time!" Nalant nodded, with a solemn look on his face.
.
"Sir Narante, what revelation have you received?"
When everyone saw something was wrong with Nalant's expression, some people immediately couldn't help but made a sound of curiosity.
"My revelation is quite scary! It's about the emergence of dark creatures. The revelation says that in two months, there will be a large wave of dark creatures invading!"
"hiss!"
"Invasion of dark creatures?"
The nobles suddenly took a breath of cold air. The invasion of dark creatures was the existence they feared the most, even more terrifying than human enemies.
"Sir Nalant, you should be careful in dealing with it. After all, your place is full of bad luck... Dark creatures have also appeared in the past!"
To be continued...
