Chapter 925 "The Count of Lorraine Crossing the St. Bernard Pass in the Alps" (please vote for me)
Lord Sal followed the man's instructions and walked straight to the gate of the Governor's Mansion.
The Governor's Palace in Nidel City is not difficult to find. The towering tower spire in the Governor's Palace immediately indicates the target.
It's just that the development of Nai'an is so fast. If you are not familiar with it, even if you are looking at the spire of the Governor's Palace, you will still wander around in circles on the crowded streets.
In particular, Lord Thrall was a fat man, and it was difficult to walk on the streets full of traffic in Nedel.
After walking and asking questions all the way, Lord Sal was so tired that he was sweating profusely and finally arrived at the gate of the Governor's Palace.
But even though he was already standing in front of the gate, he still remembered the strange look in that man's eyes, which made Lord Thrall feel strange for a while, as if he looked like a fool who was about to be unlucky.
If he wasn't too afraid of the old lady in Nedel City, Lord Thrall would definitely show this person what the dignity of a noble is.
But forget it for now, "big things are important," Lord Thrall comforted himself.
The guard in front of the door saw him standing in front of the door of the Governor's Mansion, looking up and staring at the door of the Governor's Mansion, refusing to advance or retreat. He was acting suspiciously. He immediately stepped forward with his hand on the hilt of his knife and shouted sternly: "Who are you?"
What are you doing standing in the Governor's Palace? Do you have an ID?"
At the same time, there were several big men in casual clothes next to them who were looking at this side with evil intentions, moving slowly, blocking Lord Thrall's retreat.
Lord Sal paused for a moment, looked at the officer in front of him who was glaring with his hand on the hilt of the knife, and then said with a smile: "Sir, I am Lord Sal from Meadow City. I came to see you, Lord Governor, and I have something to ask for."
We have discussed the matter, please let me know."
The guard was stunned for a moment, and while looking at Lord Sal up and down, he murmured: "Meadow City? What is that place? Why have I never heard of it before?"
Then he turned his head and shouted loudly to his companion next to him: "Rael, have you heard of Meadow City?"
The companion also shrugged and said: "Meiduo City? I have no impression at all. How could I know about such a rural place?
You don’t even think about how big our province is, not to mention the newly developed grassland land. Thirty or fifty people dare to name a small town. I know a man who used to herd cattle, and now he dares to
Call yourself mayor.
Is this such-and-such Lord a country bumpkin from somewhere?"
As Rael spoke, he squinted his eyes at the Lord. The title of Lord was not taken seriously by these soldiers.
He is a newcomer who has just joined the army, and he is already angry with the veterans. Moreover, he does not belong to the ranks of the Guards. These Naian local soldiers, like the auxiliary police, are here to cooperate with the Guards and do some things.
Handle the job of door-keeper and sweeper.
But because of this, he suffered from the idle anger of the Imperial Guards who were too high-minded. There was no way to deal with the anger.
Due to the bad nature of human beings and the dark philistine mentality, he does not want to ask for equality, and this equality cannot be demanded. The gap between their local troops and the Imperial Guard is too big, and they can still do it with one hand tied.
Beat several of them to the ground.
So all this idle energy was spread on others.
He looked Lord Sal up and down and said, "Have you made an appointment? Do you have a letter of introduction from your employer?"
Lord Thrall clearly felt their disdain and couldn't help but hesitate for a moment. He was about to get angry on the spot, but then he suppressed his anger and shouted loudly: "An appointment? I came all the way here, how can I get an appointment?"
You go and report it, and say that I came from the west, Maiduo City.
If Archbishop Obachum, or... or Miss Melina are here, they know where this place is."
The two guards looked at each other immediately, and then their eyes changed. Although this country bumpkin is still the same country bumpkin, he can have a relationship with Archbishop Obachum or Miss Melina. This origin is not simple~!
The emperor also had three poor relatives, Obham or Melina, so it was normal for him to meet a country bumpkin.
Thinking of this, the guard immediately put on a smiling face and said: "Oh~! Sorry, sorry. Sir, we are also on official business, and if we have offended something, I hope you will not remember the faults of the villain, Haihan.
2. Sit down quickly. Sit down quickly."
As he spoke, he took out a stool from behind him like a magic trick. He diligently dusted off the non-existent dust on it and then placed it behind Lord Thrall.
Lord Thrall just snorted and then sat down grandly.
At this time, the guard next to him had nodded slightly to him, then asked the captain of the Guards on duty next to him for instructions, then turned around and walked into the gate.
The guard chatted with the Lord for a while, chatting a bit about the local customs and the new rules of Naian Province. It didn't take long before he saw Narel come out of the gate.
Rael came to the front of Lord Sal, and then said with a smiling face: "My lord, please come in quickly. You don't know that you have come at the right time. Our lord is at work, this is extremely inappropriate.
It's common. I heard that you came from afar, so I made an exception and decided to receive you now."
After hearing this, Lord Sal couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. What do you mean by this? A dignified governor, and he still works in the governor's palace, which is "extremely rare"?
Shouldn’t the Governor-General work in the Government House?
But immediately, without allowing him to react, the guard bowed slightly and said: "Sir, you have to hurry up, otherwise, wait a moment, our master will be off duty. I don't know how long it will take. This opportunity
It’s rare.”
Lord Thrall was confused, but after hearing the urging from the guard, he did not dare to neglect. He hurriedly picked up his clothes and quickly came to the Governor's Mansion.
Under the guidance of the guard, he hurried through the garden and came to a tall building. Then he walked around a few times, climbed up the stairs, passed through two corridors, and finally came to a
In front of the tall door.
The gate is extremely tall and covered with various patterns and decorations. The craftsmanship is exquisite and lifelike.
You can tell at a glance that it is definitely the work of a famous artist.
The door handle sparkled in the sunlight. It was unknown whether it was covered with gold flakes or simply made of pure gold.
Moreover, the handle is also carved and hollowed out, which is extremely beautiful and obviously made with precision workmanship.
Even if it is a royal palace, it is nothing more than this~!
Lord Sal couldn't help but sigh in admiration. Just from this detail, you can know how much land this lord has scraped and how much money he has made.
Lord Thrall thought of something for a moment, but in the end he could only sigh in his heart: This bastard used really dark tricks when scraping the land~!
At this time, a tall guard next to him came forward and said coldly: "My lord, please raise your hands, we need to conduct a security inspection."
Lord Thrall couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
At this time, the guard next to him was already laughing and said: "Sir, our lord has been assassinated before. Although he didn't care, these young people are just a bunch of incompetent rats.
But the safety of the governor and his family is a top priority for us.
Not to mention, he took the lead and ventured into the territory of the demon clan, robbed the demon clan's war fortress, and made an immortal contribution. Those demon clan must hate him to the core, and will try their best to retaliate. So..."
Having said this, he stretched out his voice and spread his hands, showing a helpless look.
Lord Thrall couldn't help being surprised after hearing his words.
Although it was just a few words, it gave people a strong sense of oppression. It was as if the terrible assassination from the darkness was right in front of them. It could happen at any time.
He then realized that what he was about to face was the world-famous Governor of Nai'an who had repeatedly accomplished extraordinary feats, the Empire's Flying Eagle God of War~!
Not only can he scratch the ground, but he also attracts great hatred. Many people hate him so much that they grind their teeth to pieces.
Before Lord Thrall could react, he saw that the attendant just now had searched Lord Thrall from top to bottom very skillfully.
Although the other party's actions were not rough, Lord Thrall still felt that his pride had been offended and he was quite annoyed.
As a noble, he has never received such treatment.
But then I saw that the man was wearing a pair of white gloves.
This made him feel strangely comforted. Then he couldn't help but think of the strange look in the eyes of the person who showed him the way not long ago.
Lord Thrall put down his hand and said coldly: "Is it okay?"
The guard did not answer, but took half a step back, nodded slightly, and then looked not far away.
Lord Thrall followed his gaze and saw a priest wearing a white robe standing there.
The man clasped his hands together, whispered a few prayers, then stepped forward and threw a white light from his palm.
Lord Thrall immediately stiffened: He actually set up a special priest inspection. Isn't this too strict?
At this moment, he saw the white light passing through his body without any change.
Lord Thrall couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. The priests' holy magic posed no threat to ordinary people.
But then he saw in a dark corner nearby, a magician in black robes slowly put away the staff in his hand, then folded his arms and leaned against the wall.
He couldn't help but startled for a moment, and then he felt a bone-chilling coldness: If something went wrong just now, I believe that the magician would immediately shoot a terrible magic and kill him on the spot~!
Thinking of this, a cold sweat broke out on his back, and he was even more in awe of the Governor of Lorraine whom he had never met before.
At this time, the guard bowed slightly and said, "I'm sorry, sir. You can go in."
With that said, he took half a step back and opened the door.
Lord Thrall immediately dusted off his clothes, snorted coldly, and walked in.
But then he discovered that he had arrived in a huge oval room.
The entire wall on the south side is made of huge glass, and sunlight shines in from the outside. The whole room becomes extremely bright.
There is a huge blue carpet on the floor of the office. In the middle is woven the family emblem of the Governor, a golden dragon cliff grass.
On the front wall hangs a huge oil painting.
In the background is a gloomy sky.
On a snowy steep slope, a young man was riding a fierce horse with its front hooves raised. He was wearing a red cloak and a military uniform, with his right hand raised high, pointing forward.
From the messy mane of the war horse and the swinging angle of the cloak, we can know that there was a strong wind blowing from behind him at that time.
The whole picture is permeated with a solemn atmosphere. With every gesture, the heroic spirit of scolding Fang Qiu and looking down on the world is about to come to your face. It is heart-shaking.
Very shocking~!
Of course, anyone who has seen the painting "Napoleon Crossing the St. Bernard Pass in the Alps" will naturally know that Lord Lowe has shamelessly pirated it again.
Of course, in terms of momentum, Lord Lorraine is more powerful than the dwarf.
But how could these people know?
The only difference is that he shamelessly replaced Napoleon with his own look. In this way, the earl can loudly and plausibly declare: Anyone who dares to say that the earl has plagiarized will be slapped in the face.
This is obviously different~!
Even if he had the ability to find another painting and put them together for comparison, Sir Alex would not be afraid at all and could still straighten his back and say this~!
However, at the same time, it also caused another trouble.
Other people also thought it was good after seeing this painting.
Later, such marvelous works as "Archduke Julius Crossing the Saint Bernard Pass in the Alps", "Marshal Wabador Crossing the Saint Bernard Pass in the Alps", "General Hardou Crossing the Saint Bernard Pass in the Alps"
, "The Parthian General Crossing the St. Bernard Pass in the Alps"... and other portraits emerge one after another.
Even Lester made a picture of "The Great Sorcerer Who Crossed the St. Bernard Pass in the Alps" and hung it together with the equally famous "The Great Sorcerer Who Conquered the War Fortress" in his home.
on the wall.
Among them, the most famous one is "Leo the Great Crossing the St. Bernard Pass in the Alps". The little gangster asks people to draw one every year. Then he not only hangs it himself, but also distributes it to everyone.
Later, an employee of the Flying Eagle Company had an idea and immediately collected twelve copies of "Leo the Great Crossing the St. Bernard Pass in the Alps" of different ages, printed the date on them, and distributed them widely.
Let the common people of the empire use it as a monthly wall calendar.
Once it was popularized, it was deeply loved by the people across the empire. Everyone praised it. After having this thing, it is much easier to remember things.
Uh...that's something for later, let's not mention it for now.
xxxxx
Lord Sal looked at the painting and couldn't help being shocked.
At this moment, I heard a voice: "Isn't this painting good? I painted it myself."
Lord Sal then turned his head and immediately saw a young man not far away smiling and looking at him.
The face looked familiar, as if he had just seen it somewhere. Then an idea came to him, and he looked up at the painting again, and found that the young man opposite looked exactly like the one in the painting.
He was suddenly slightly shocked.
This is the legendary Governor of Naian, a master of land scraping, and the flying eagle war god of the empire.
Not long ago, he went deep into the demon clan alone, robbed the war fortress, even fought with a god-like figure like the undead high priest, and returned victorious~ a peerless hero!
After a while, Lord Thrall reacted and couldn't help but be a little surprised. This man was really too young. He was only a little over twenty years old at most, but he had already made such a great contribution. This was simply
Unbelievable.
However, despite the smile on the other person's face, he did not dare to slack off at all. The person simply stood there, but the powerful momentum he exuded was as heavy as a mountain, which made people breathless.
Lord Sal's face changed at this time, and he became serious. He put away the country bumpkin look he had always had, but bowed gracefully and said, "I have met you, sir."
The movement was neither high nor low, a standard eighty-five degree. It was humble but not flattering, and polite. It would have been impossible to do it without years of aristocratic training.
Lorraine looked at it, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes: This is really strange. Lord Sal changed his appearance in just the blink of an eye.
I wonder if he will also have a gorgeous Moonlight Detective transformation.
Lorraine hesitated for a moment, then turned to the side and called: "Aunt Susan, please help me pour a cup of tea."
Lord Thrall turned his head and took a look, and then he saw a small desk opposite Lorraine's desk, and a fat aunt sitting behind it.
He immediately remembered the legend about Lord Luo's secretary. It was said that Lord Luo's girlfriends were more powerful than each other. In order to avoid certain bad things from happening, all the secretaries specially found for him were
She is a fat aunt with a big butt and a thick waist.
Lord Sal couldn't help but sigh softly: Although he had heard about Lord Luo's endless blessings, for some reason at this time, instead of being envious, he felt quite sympathetic to the Lord in front of him.
As a governor-level big shot, he doesn't even have a decent office romance. This life is really missing a big part~!
In addition, with the personalities of his girlfriends, I believe that when he gets old, he will not be able to recognize a few more goddaughters and become godfathers. This life will be another big shortcoming~!
Lorraine didn't take it seriously. It wasn't until the fat aunt left the office and closed the door that he smiled and said, "Sit down, my lord."
Lorraine paused for a moment, then looked at Lord Sal, and said: "I'm very curious, where is this Meadow City? Why do I seem to have never heard of it?"
Lord Thrall twisted his body slightly uneasily, and then said: "It's normal that you don't know."
He forced a smile, then stared at Lorraine and said word by word: "Because Meadow City is the territory of the Niodos family. It is a small and unknown place."
Lorraine couldn't help but be startled: Niodos... this name sounds so familiar~!
At this time, Sal said solemnly: "I would like to solemnly introduce myself. I am Lord Sal, the most loyal servant of the Niodos family. The secret envoy of Her Majesty Queen Almohad..."
